In SAS^® 9.2 Enterprise BI Server, the Web application-server log contains the following error message:

ERROR [STDERR] Could not resolve placeholder 'midtier.platform.level' in [audit-${midtier.platform.level}–config.xml] 
as system property: neither system property nor environment variable found

You can safely ignore this message. You will see a message to that effect later in the log:

INFO  [main] - Resolved 'midtier.platform.level' in [audit-${midtier.platform.level}–config.xml] via properties object. 
You can safely ignore previous ERROR level log messages related to this placeholder for this application.

If the Web applications are deployed to IBM WebSphere, the error message appears in the SystemErr.log file and the information (INFO) message is written to SystemOut.log. If the JBoss application server is used, both messages are written in the server.log file.

These messages are generated by underlying Spring code that attempts to resolve system properties. In the above situation, the system properties are used to determine whether the SAS Web Infrastructure Platform is installed with or without SAS Shared Services, and the messages have no impact on the running of the applications.
