Problem Note 15357: Import Table feature may fail with error in LIBNAME statement
If the SAS Administrator user (unrestricted) assigns an Oracle library
that contains a userid and password and then attempts to use the Import
Table feature, it will fail with:
LIBNAME ora3 ORACLE PATH=alien SCHEMA=orion USER=orion
PASSWORD=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX ;
ERROR: ORACLE connection error: ORA-01017: invalid username/password;
logon denied.
ERROR: Error in the LIBNAME statement.
If the Administrator tries to reassign the library and carefully types
the password to ensure the password is correct, it will still fail.
If the Administrator invokes a SAS session and issues a LIBNAME
statement with the userid and password, this LIBNAME statement will be
successful. If they then cut and paste the generated LIBNAME statement
from the Display Libname popup to the library in the Data Library
Manager of SAS Management Console and then submits this LIBNAME
statement in a SAS session directly on the application server, it will
still fail.
