Problem Note 54915: An abend might occur when you are accessing a SAS® Scalable Performance Data Server table on a Linux x64 system

DetailsHotfixAboutRate It

A segmentation violation abend might occur when you are running an SQL procedure query. The problem occurs when the following conditions exist:

  • A SAS Scalable Performance Data Server table is being accessed with the LIBNAME engine
  • SAS is running under Linux x64
  • The query contains a function that is not supported by SAS Scalable Performance Data Server

The error might look similar to the following:

ERROR: sqlplan internal error: Cannot find symbol newvar1, var=1, tag=0001. ERROR: An exception has been encountered. Please contact technical support and provide them with the following traceback information: The SAS task name is [SQL ] Segmentation Violation Traceback of the Exception: /usrlibsas/SASFoundation/9.4/sasexe /sas() [0x52807e] /usrlibsas/SASFoundation/9.4/sasexe /sas() [0x41f0ee] /usrlibsas/SASFoundation/9.4/sasexe /tkmk.so(bkt_signal_handler+0x144) [0x7feab5afd5d4] /lib64/libpthread.so.0() [0x363dc0f520] /usrlibsas/SASFoundation/9.4/sasexe /sassqlu(+0x2269d) [0x7fea8a92869d] /usrlibsas/SASFoundation/9.4/sasexe /sassqlu(+0x1f8ad) [0x7fea8a9258ad] /usrlibsas/SASFoundation/9.4/sasexe /sassqlu(+0x2a529) [0x7fea8a930529] /usrlibsas/SASFoundation/9.4/sasexe /sassqlu(+0x336f6) [0x7fea8a9396f6] /usrlibsas/SASFoundation/9.4/sasexe /sassqlu(sqltxt2+0x44d) [0x7fea8a91a40d] /usrlibsas/SASFoundation/9.4/sasexe /sassqlp(+0x4ddfd) [0x7feaa0525dfd] /usrlibsas/SASFoundation/9.4/sasexe /sassqlp(sqlpsel+0x106e) [0x7feaa05248fe] /usrlibsas/SASFoundation/9.4/sasexe /sassqlp(sqlplan+0x55) [0x7feaa0512145] /usrlibsas/SASFoundation/9.4/sasexe /sassqlp(sqlprep+0x377) [0x7feaa0541737] /usrlibsas/SASFoundation/9.4/sasexe /sassqx(+0x3882e) [0x7feaa0a1582e] /usrlibsas/SASFoundation/9.4/sasexe /sassqx(sqlloop+0x33c) [0x7feaa0a1503c] /usrlibsas/SASFoundation/9.4/sasexe /sassql(sassql+0x27a) [0x7fea8ad9191a] /usrlibsas/SASFoundation/9.4/sasexe /sas(vvtentr+0x101) [0x41ed01] /lib64/libpthread.so.0() [0x363dc077e1] /lib64/libc.so.6(clone+0x6d) [0x363d4e68ed]
