Problem Note 50027: The SAS® Grid client utility (SASGSUB) fails in a Windows operating environment when the value of the GRIDSUBMITPGM option includes spaces

DetailsHotfixAboutRate It

SASGSUB fails when the GRIDSUBMITPGM parameter value contains a filename with spaces. An invalid log filename is created, which is truncated at the first space of the filename.

Here is an example:

-gridsubmitpgm "sp a ce.sas"

The log file that is created would be named "sp.log", which causes the following error:

ERROR: Invalid File

Click the Hot Fix tab in this note to access the hot fix for this issue.


IMPORTANT NOTE: There are two separate components to this hot fix that must be applied at the same time. The SAS Threaded Kernel Grid component has the SASGSUB command and needs to be applied to all client machines where SASGSUB is installed. The Base SAS component has the sasgrid command script update that needs to be applied to all grid server machines. To perform this update, run the SAS® Deployment Manager to Update Existing Configuration on all grid servers. Failure to update all clients and servers results in job execution failures.
