Problem Note 62950: The activation of decision flows fails if the activation takes more than one minute
 |  |  |  |  |
The activation of decision flows from any of the following components fails when the activation takes more than a minute:
- BatchActivator command-line utility
- SAS® Decision Services Administrative application programming interface (API)
- SAS Decision Services Monitor
- SAS Decision Services plug-in for SAS® Management Console
The following error is typically found in the log when the failure occurs:
12:05:44 ERROR The SAS Decision Services engine could not be updated. The repository changes will be rolled back.

Click the Hot Fix tab in this note to access the hot fix for this issue.
The hot fix addresses the issue by providing the following:
- a new command-line option (-t) to specify the timeout value in milliseconds for the BatchActivator command-line utility
- a new configuration item (sasds.adminapi.engine.read.timeout) for the SAS Decision Services Administrative API
- a new configuration item (sasds.monitor.engine.read.timeout) for SAS Decision Services Monitor
- the SAS Decision Services plug-in for SAS Management Console, which waits indefinitely for the activation to complete
You need to change the configuration items listed above in the Configuration Manager plug-in for SAS Management Console. The default value is 60 seconds. To override the default value, create an entry on the Advanced tab and specify the value in milliseconds.
