Usage Note 43431: "ERROR: Undetermined I/O failure" might occur when submitting sample code to import legacy reports using SASXPRRP

DetailsAboutRate It

The SAS 9.2 Intelligence Platform Web Application Administration Guide includes misleading sample code for importing legacy reports using the SASXPRRP access method. Using the code as documented causes an "Undetermined I/O failure" error.

Following is the corrected sample code.

filename dest sasxprrp "SBIP://METASERVER/Department1/2008/Users/xyz/Reports"
   userid="xyz" password="bip2004" domain="thisDomain"
   OMRHost="bipsvrxyz.na.sas.com" OMRPort="9999" OMRUser="xyz" 
   OMRPassword="bip2004" OMRReposName="FOUNDATION"
   ;

option noovp;
ods sasreport file="myreport.xml" path=dest;
proc print data=sashelp.class; 
run;
ods sasreport close;

For information about SASXPRRP, see "Import Legacy Reports" in the Adding Content for Use by Report Creators topic.

Note: An "Undetermined I/O failure” error also occurs if you do not have ReadMetadata and WriteMetadata permissions on the metadata repository, and you don't have ReadMetadata and WriteMemberMetadata on SAS Folders.
