Problem Note 42848: SAS® Warranty Analysis does not run and returns a job control error

DetailsHotfixAboutRate It

The middle tier of SAS Warranty Analysis does not start if the data sets Userdl.Analysis and Userdl.Project_Node are empty. The SASWarrantyAnalysis4.3.log file in CONFIGDIR/Lev1/Web/Logs will contain an error message similar to the following:

   [Job Control Table Synchronization] ERROR [] com.sas.analytics.mfg.queue.jct.QueueJobControlTableSynchManager -
   Failed to run a Job Control Table update job
   [warrantyAnalysis.WarrantyBatchJobControlRowLoaderPostfix-xxxxx.log] due to cause: 
   Stored process completed
   but had SAS errors in SAS code run. See log file.

In the diagnostic client, the log file warrantyAnalysis.WarrantyBatchJobControlRowLoaderPostfix-xxxxx.log contains a message similar to the following:

   ERROR: Invalid dimension specification for array IDs.
   The upper bound of an array dimension is smaller than its corresponding lower bound.
   ERROR: Too many variables defined for the dimension(s) specified for the array IDs.

This problem occurs because the code assumes that some automatic-update nodes will be found. If no automatic updates are found, an array within a DATA step is indexed illegally and causes a SAS® software error.
