Problem Note 59602: When rendering geo maps, SAS® Visual Analytics might display "centroids service failure" or "Libref VALIB is not assigned"
 |  |  |  |
When you attempt to use a geographic data item, SAS Visual Analytics might display a red x in the lower right corner of the geo map with a tooltip that says:
were not found; possible centroids service failure.
Here are other errors that might appear, depending on which SAS Visual Analytics application you are using:
If you are using the default geo map library (VALIB), this problem can occur if the SASUSERS group has been denied ReadMetadata on the Products metadata folder, shown in the following display:
The Products folder contains the SAS Visual Analytics folder that stores the library definition. To resolve the problem, explicitly grant ReadMetadata to the SASUSERS group on the Products folder.
If you have defined additional geo map libraries and you encounter this problem, then ensure that you explicitly grant ReadMetadata to the SASUSERS group on the metadata folder that stores your library definition.
