Problem Note 70919: SAS® Episode Analytics 4.5.1 - Statistical procedures processing sparse data might generate error messages and halt execution
 |  |  |  |  |
When executing certain SAS® statistical procedures (for example, GLMSELECT or GLIMMIX) within the SAS Episode Analytics 4.5.1 application, error messages are generated when the input SAS data sets contain sparse data.
As a result, the error messages force the executing batch jobs to be terminated.
A solution is provided within SAS® Episode Analytics 4.5.2 that will identify and capture scenarios where an input data set is sparse. Once identified, the procedure-issued error messages are replaced with warning messages that will allow the jobs to continue processing.
