Problem Note 63626: Running a Dynamic Lift report fails with errors "Missing numeric suffix on a numbered variable list ... ending column position before starting ..."

DetailsHotfixAboutRate It

In SAS® Model Manager, running a Dynamic Lift report might fail. Errors like these are displayed in the corresponding SAS log:

169 put 'LIBNAME testlib HADOOPuri='jdbc:hive2://server_port/schema_name;';

ERROR: Missing numeric suffix on a numbered variable list(server_name).

ERROR: The ending column position 2 is before the starting column position 230.

The problem occurs when these conditions are true:

  • The table that is used for the report is from a SAS library.
  • The SAS library definition contains both single and double quotation marks.  Example:

LIBNAME testlib HADOOP uri='jdbc:hive2://server:port/value;auth=kerberos;principal=..' SERVER="server" HDFS_TEMPDIR="/tmp" CREATE_TABLE_OPTS='STORED AS PARQUET TBLPROPERTIES("parquet.compression"="SNAPPY")'  PORT=15452 SERVER=HaddoopHOST ;
