Problem Note 58522: Updating the Federated Data Mart fails with an error

DetailsAboutRate It

If you run the updateFedDataMart.sh job or try to update the Federated Data Mart via the SAS® Environment Manager web interface, the update might fail with following message:

ERROR: Symbolic variable name VALUE" must contain only letters, digits, and underscores. ERROR: A character operand was found in the %EVAL function or %IF condition where a numeric operand is required. ... ERROR: The macro ISENABLED will stop executing.

This problem occurs when you are using UTF-8 encoding.

To work around the problem, open the isenabled.sas macro located in the SAS-configuration-directory/Web/SASEnvironmentManager/emi-framework/SASMacros and remove all the double quotation marks (") in the code.

Here is an example of the macro code that might contain quotation marks:

%if “&value” EQ “TRUE” or “&value” EQ “T” or “&value” EQ “ON” or “&value” EQ “YES” or “&value” EQ “Y” or “&value” EQ “1” %then 1;
