Problem Note 62561: A check that confirms the minimum-version level for Greenplum might fail when you use the %INDGP_PUBLISH_FORMAT or %INDGP_PUBLISH_MODEL macros
 |  |  |  |  |
In SAS/ACCESS® Interface to Greenplum, a check that ensures that the Greenplum database is at a minimum-version level of 4.2 might fail in the following scenarios:
- The database version number has three levels (for example, 5.7.0).
- The database version number has three or four levels, and a multiple-digit number occurs at any level (for example, 4.3.24.0).
The minimum-version check is usually initiated by the %INDGP_PUBLISH_FORMAT macro and the %INDGP_PUBLISH_MODEL macro. When you run one of these macros, errors that are similar to the following might appear in the SAS® log:
ERROR: ARGUMENT TO VERIFY FUNCTION MISSING.
ERROR: A character operand was found in the %EVAL function or %IF
condition where a numeric operand is required. The condition was:
%verify( &gp_system_version, '0123456789') or %verify(
&gp_system_subversion, '0123456789')
ERROR: The macro INDGP_GET_DBVERSION will stop executing.
ERROR: The publishing macros from this release only work with GP 4.2 or
later.
ERROR: Your server version is ..
ERROR: Execution terminated by an %ABORT statement.

When you run macros to publish formats or models to a Greenplum database, a check that ensures that the Greenplum database is at a minimum-version level of 4.2 might fail.
