Problem Note 37839: The WebDAV access layer logs an error for dropped connections but subsequent operations succeed

DetailsAboutRate It

If you use a FILENAME statement or a LIBNAME statement to connect to a WebDAV server and the server subsequently drops the connection, the WebDAV access layer logs the dropped connection as an error, as shown below:

ERROR: Unable to send data to Web server, errno = 10054 (The connection 
reset by a peer.).

However, the WebDAV access layer will attempt to re-establish the connection and complete subsequent operations and, in many cases, it will succeed.

To prevent the WebDAV access layer from logging the errors, include these statements in your SAS program:

%log4sas(); %log4sas_logger("HTTP", "LEVEL=FATAL");

In SAS 9.3, the dropped connection is logged as a warning instead of an error.
