someone have some idea about how to install PROC LCA?
The only download mirror I can find is this one: https://www.methodology.psu.edu/downloads/proclcalta/
but actually it doesn't work (file not found).
Someone knows how I can install it?
I found this link SAS Procedures for Latent Class Analysis & Latent Transition Analysis (PROC LCA) by getting to their new website at https://www.methodology.psu.edu/research-and-rigor/ and clicking on the link software developed at The Methodology Center.

I have SAS 9.4 installed. When I tried to do Solution -> Analysis -> Interactive Data Analysis, it says "ERROR: SAS/INSIGHT has been discontinued, beginning with SAS 9.4."
Do I used version 9.3 instead?
A lot of the stuff that SAS/Insights could do you can now do with the various tasks that come with the SAS/Studio interface. With SAS 9.4 you should have access to SAS/Studio. If you are using SAS on your PC it should already be there. If you are using SAS on shared server(s) then your system team will need to install it and tell what URL to use to launch it.
According to SAS Community message board post "Replacement for SAS/Insight (and SAS/Lab)"
IML Studio is the intended substitute for Insight, although it is a separate product and requires a license for IML.
You might also want to contact your SAS support and ask them if there is a newer current best alternative. A vote (or request) to bring it back can be lodged at Communities SASware Ballot message board.
I use SAS Enterprise Guide (version 5.1) for several projects. Enterprise Guide automatically creates links from programs to their input and output, which helps visualize the order of my project in an intuitive way. However, when a program errors, it breaks the link by default, and my process flow looks like a mess - which makes it much harder to debug because I cannot spot where the initial error occurs.
Is there a way to default Enterprise Guide to keep process flow links when an error happens?
Before Error
After Error
You can only do it by adding manual links. It's really annoying and tedious, but it will pay off in the long run.
SAS has gotten a lot better about adding incremental EG updates and features. Send tech support an email requesting such a thing, and they may include it in a future release.
I'm working at VietNam - HaNoi National University and I've a research at BigData satellite raster image by array database.
A solution is using Rasdaman database which has been developed many years. I've installed this server successfully, try to make some query with this by using this guide from rasdaman.org. Everything should be ok but I've known that this has a GUI tool name Rview.
I can't search Rview from any where (may be it's too old), I need some GUI tool because I some time don't really know what is error in my query and I need some tool that can show me the result (2D, 3D) with interractive viewer.
Please tell me how can I get a tool that can have GUI as MS SQL Database management tool, Phpmyadmin,...
Rview (recently renamed to rasdaview actually, to avoid clashing with vim) is a GUI client for rasdaman that allows to send queries and has some cool visualization capabilities for 1D to 3D data.
The problem with rasdaview is that it has been last compiled 10+ years ago against wxWidgets 1.6x and the code is so outdated and incompatible with recent wxWidgets that it's not possible to compile it anymore without significant rewriting.
So rasdaman comes with this rview binary, which amazingly still works on most systems today. However, since it's not possible to compile it, it's a bit tricky to get it running. These guidelines should help you.

I am very new to SAS, but found it's really a amazing tool.
Now i have a very basic and fundamental question/problem about the readiness & installation of SAS.
My boss is considering the possibility to have an environment for running PHP script directly to trigger SAS with the connection to mysql, so, i suppose we need SAS with at least "SAS Access interface for mysql" & "SAS/Intrnet", am i right?
Besides contact SAS office for help, I want to get more understandings of it first.
(A) all SAS copy contains all of these modules, and even the current SID doesnt cover "mysql & intrnet", i still can activate them after attaining another SID which has these two modules? or
(B) some SAS copies contain these modules but some are not, so, even if i had a SID which cover these two modules, it doesnt mean i can activate them for use if the installation copy do not have them actually.
It's a fundamental concept which makes me puzzle and curious, and i dont know how to explain to my boss yet....
Your kind help and information is much appreciated, thanks
Both are possible. If your deployment package includes those products, then you might have them installed, even if they are not available per your license (SID file). That depends on what was selected at installation, and when the original deployment package was created. You (or whomever manages installations) could look at the deployment package in SAS Deployment Manager to find out.
To answer the question I think you're asking, you could certainly have one deployment package that includes the modules, and use the appropriate SID file to only activate the desired products on the desired machine(s) while still using the same deployment package. You could also install with a SID file that does not contain them and then run a new SID that does contain them later, so long as your deployment package contains them.
My department maintains all sorts of jobs and reports based on SAS, in a mainframe/batch environment (ie ugly JCL green screens).
I have been enrolled in an expensive training program from the SAS Institute. One of the first parts of the training asks me to install files from a zip file. "Open SAS" and run some files. I can't "open SAS" because I don't have it. It is embedded on the mainframe.
They provide some extremely limited instructions to work in z/OS. but I can't even figure out the basics like how to make a dataset to put the learning file into. They really give no guidance. They assume you already know how to use SAS.
Anyway, the training shows examples in Windows using SAS Enterprise Guide. I would like to get that and use it instead, at least for learning the SAS language. But when I called SAS just to find out if that is a free download, or if not how much it would cost, they said they would call me back and never did. So I just want to know a ballpark for how much it would cost me to get this tool. Also, if I had that tool, would I be able to use it to access the jobs on the Base SAS that I already have (on the mainframe) or would I have to purchase another Base SAS for Windows? I haven't been able to find answers to these questions via a Google search, and the SAS company didn't call me back. Can anyone with more knowledge about this help me out?
As far as I know, SAS Institute does not provide their software to individuals. They work with organizations and the yearly licence could cost tens to hundreds thousand dollars, depending on the components included and the number of processors or users.
There was crippleware SAS Learning Edition but they discontinued it.
I wonder if you can ask for refund for your expensive training program. Alternatively, you can try to run SAS scripts in batch mode on your mainframe. There are some third-party solutions for IDE like EMACS Speaks Statistics (ESS). You will lose functionality like dataset viewer.
