Problem Note 34078: The METALIB procedure might fail with the message "ERROR: Invalid physical name encountered during XMLMap parsing" when updating table metadata
When you use PROC METABLIB to update table metadata for an XML library, the update might fail with the following error:
ERROR: Invalid physical name
encountered during XMLMap parsing
This error might occur when the following is true:
- The library had been defined originally in SAS® Data Integration Studio 3.4.
- The library was defined with the new XML Source Template.
To circumvent this error, define the library with the Generic Library Template.
