Problem Note 69606: The ASTORE procedure might report an error "Failed to load engine..." when scoring a table
 |  |  |  |  |
PROC ASTORE might report the following error:
123 score data=casuser.hmeq2 rstore=casuser.ast2 out=casuser.outscore2;
ERROR: Failed to load engine.
ERROR: Failed to initialize scoring(code = 6).
ERROR: Failed to load engine.
ERROR: Action score failed.
ERROR: The action stopped due to errors.
124 describe rstore=casuser.ast2;
125 run;
NOTE: The PROCEDURE ASTORE printed page 34.
NOTE: PROCEDURE ASTORE used (Total process time):
real time 0.35 seconds
cpu time 0.12 seconds
This issue occurs when a variable name in the score table does not match the capitalization of the corresponding input in the Analytical Store. For example, you encounter this issue if the score table contains Cylinders while cylinders is the input in the Analytical Store.
To work around the issue, complete these steps:
- Run PROC ASTORE with a DESCRIBE statement to obtain the model's input variables.
- Run PROC CONTENTS to check the variable names in the score table.
- Compare the names of the variables in step 1 and step 2 to find the names with mismatched capitalization.
- If there is a mismatch, modify the variable name in the score table. For example, you can use the code below to rename a variable:
cas;
caslib _all_ assign;
libname mycas cas caslib=casuser;
data mycas.cars;
set sashelp.cars;
run;
proc contents data=mycas.cars; title 'Before renaming columns'; run;
proc casutil;
altertable casdata="cars" incaslib="casuser"
columns =
{
{name= "Cylinders" rename="cylinder"}
{name="MPG_City" rename="mpg_city"}
};
quit;
proc contents data=mycas.cars; title 'after renaming columns'; run;
