Usage Note 21098: SAS® returns a SETINIT error after you attempt to apply the setinit due to a discrepancy between the current release and the RELEASE= option value
After you apply the SAS setinit, you might receive an error message in
your SAS log window or your setinit log file (setinit.log or
setinit.sss.log for SAS 8.2) that is similar to the following:
Error: Will not attempt to apply SETINIT because the current
release of 8.2 and the RELEASE= option value of 8.1 do
not match.
The release numbers might vary depending on the releases involved.
To resolve the problem do the following:
1. Check the top of the SAS log window or the top of your setinit
log file for the installed SAS release.
2. Verify that the release value in your PROC SETINIT code or
setinit.sss file matches the installed SAS release. For example,
SAS 8.2 (TS2M0) requires a SETINIT with a RELEASE value of 8.2.
3. If the release values are different, contact your SAS
installation representative for the correct PROC SETINIT code.
