SAS watchout page


I have a problem running rgsproc, because a library is missing. How can I solve it?

Well, you evidently belong to the fast SAS downloaders. A SAS task package including a library linked to rgsproc was erroneously taken out from the public SAS distribution. Less than 24 hours after the release announcement a patch has been delivered to fix this problem.

Follow these steps, if you want to patch your SASv6.0 installation:

  • go to the XMM-Newton SAS v6.0 ftp site
  • move into the directory containing the SAS version for your platform (it must be the same directory, where you downloaded your current installation from!)
  • download the package: platform-htrframes.tar.gz
  • go to $SAS_DIR/..
  • gunzip platform-htrframes.tar.gz
  • tar -xvf platform-htrframes.tar
