Problem Note 55008: "Extension Load Failure" errors might occur when you submit a LIBNAME statement against SAS® Table Server
If you submit a LIBNAME statement against the SAS Table Server, you might encounter errors such as the following:
Extension Load Failure: OS Error: 193 (tkedcm is not a valid Win32 application.)
For example, an error occurs if the SharedServices database is deployed to SAS Table Server and you submit the following LIBNAME statement against it:
LIBNAME fdsdb SASTS
SERVER='racesx13067.demo.sas.com'
PORT=22031 PROTOCOL=bridge
USER='sasadm@saspw' password=Orion123
noprompt="driver=tssql;conopts=(dsn='SharedServices')"
;
In this situation, you might encounter the following errors:
1 LIBNAME fdsdb SASTS
2 SERVER='racesx13067.demo.sas.com'
3 PORT=22031 PROTOCOL=bridge
4 USER='sasadm@saspw' password=XXXXXXXX
5 noprompt=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
6 ;
ERROR: Error allocating CLI environment.
ERROR: Error in the LIBNAME statement.
ERROR: Extension Load Failure: OS Error: 193 (tkedcm is not a valid Win32 application.)
ERROR: Unable to load extension: (tkedcm)
An error might also occur if a generic SAS Table Server LIBNAME statement is submitted, as shown here:
LIBNAME fdsdb SASTS
SERVER='racesx13068.demo.sas.com'
PORT=22031 PROTOCOL=bridge
USER='sasadm@saspw' password=Orion123
noprompt="driver=syscat"
;
If the above code is submitted, then you might encounter the same errors:
1 LIBNAME fdsdb SASTS
2 SERVER='racesx13068.demo.sas.com'
3 PORT=22031 PROTOCOL=bridge
4 USER='sasadm@saspw' password=XXXXXXXX
5 noprompt=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
6 ;
ERROR: Error allocating CLI environment.
ERROR: Error in the LIBNAME statement.
ERROR: Extension Load Failure: OS Error: 193 (tkedcm is not a valid Win32 application.)
ERROR: Unable to load extension: (tkedcm)
You might encounter the problem if a 32-bit version of SAS was installed after a 64-bit version of SAS was previously installed on your 64-bit Windows operating system.
A fix is available to resolve this issue.
