Problem Note 36976: Encryption run time execution error occurs and SAS® Metadata Server no longer accepts new connection requests
 |  |  |  |  |
If you have configured your SAS® Metadata Server to use SAS/SECURETM software, your server might suddenly refuse to accept new connections from client applications and write this error in the SAS Metadata Server log file:
Encryption run–time execution error
This problem occurs because the SAS Metadata Server is failing to release memory properly.
To circumvent the problem, restart the SAS Metadata Server process.
