Problem Note 61604: The "Connection refused" error occurs when you use SAS/ACCESS® Interface to Impala with the FREQ and several other in-database procedures

DetailsHotfixAboutRate It

When you use PROC FREQ and other in-database procedures, you can receive the following error when using SAS/ACCESS Interface to Impala:

ERROR: ERROR: [unixODBC][Cloudera][ImpalaODBC] (100) Error from the Impala
Thrift API: connect() failed: Connection refused

You encounter this problem when you run code similar to the following:

proc freq data=PMQAREF.peteclass8; 
   tables sex/outexpect sparse;
run;
The problem occurs because the PORT value that is passed is an incorrect value.

To circumvent the problem, do one of the following:

  • Specify OPTIONS SQLGENERATION=NONE.
  • Specify a data source name (DSN) in your LIBNAME statement and set the PORT value in the data source.
