During the installation of SAS 9.2 (TS1M0), the second job that is submitted to the mainframe with the name userid might fail with a JCL error. This problem occurs when the CNTL data set member JCLUPDT is transferred from ASCII to EBCDIC via FTP using a non-US code page.

To work around this issue, perform the following steps:

1. Edit the member JCLUPDT in your prefix.Vnnnnnn.CNTL data set, where prefix is the high-level prefix that you are using for your SAS 9.2 installation and nnnnnn is the Julian date during which you ran the Installation Wizard.
2. Type hex on on the command line.

   This converts the data in your session window to a three-line display for each content line, where the hexadecimal representation is in a VERTICAL display directly underneath each character.

3. If the HEX value for the $ sign in the following DD statement is not 5B, then change it to 5B:
   // DD DSN=&prefix.CNTL($EDITMKI),DISP=SHR

   You can type over the hexadecimal values that are displayed.

4. Save the job.
5. Resubmit the job.
