Problem Note 40247: SAS® Web Analytics 5.3.1 datamart MD5 tables must be recreated during migration to 5.3.3

DetailsHotfixAboutRate It

During migration from SAS® Web Analytics 5.3.1 to 5.3.3, duplicate "natural keys" are present in the MD5 dimension tables. Values in MD5 tables must be unique. If duplicates are present, errors similar to the following can occur:

  MPRINT(WEBA_SET_REFERRER_TYPE_CD): proc format cntlin=work.cntlin;
  ERROR: This range is repeated, or values overlap:
  wlseures.cc.cec.eu.int-wlseures.cc.cec.eu.int.
  MPRINT(WEBA_SET_REFERRER_TYPE_CD): run;
  WARNING: RUN statement ignored due to previous errors. 
  Submit QUIT; to terminate the procedure.

The problem is caused by code in SAS Web Analytics 5.3.1 that created the MD5 values. When these records are migrated using the SAS Web Analytics 5.3.3 code, the resulting MD5 values are identical, and the page_md5 data set contains duplicate MD5 values.
