In the SAS Studio 5.2 (Enterprise) interface, an attempt to cancel a program that is connecting to a database might cause the user interface to reset the compute server session.

After the cancel action finishes, you see any data sets that were previously created in the Work library and all previously active library names in the Libraries pane. However, if you try to open a data set in the Work library, an error message states that the data set does not exist. The error message is similar to the following:

If you refresh the libraries, the tables in the Work library are removed, and any libraries that were not assigned via an autoexec file no longer show in the Libraries pane.

Click the Hot Fix tab in this note for a link to instructions about accessing and applying the software update.

After you apply the hot fix, the following message is displayed when SAS Studio is in the state described above:
