Hi,
I'm passing rows from SAS to PostgreSQL (I assign a libname and use a
PROC APPEND). This works fine with smaller tables (~below 1 million
rows). However, as tables get larger I receive the following error
messages:
"ERROR: CLI describe error: Out of memory while reading tuples.; No
query has been executed with that handle"
and
"GLOBAL SYSDBMSG POSTGRES: Out of memory while reading tuples.; No
query has been executed with that handle
GLOBAL SYSDBRC HY000"
I've tried to change memory settings on the PostgreSQL server, but
can't solve the problem. As far as I could understand—I'm new to
PostgreSQL ;)—it seems that PostgreSQL want to somehow read
information on the whole table before processing it and this behavior
could eventually be switched off, but I might be wrong here.
FYI:
- I run SAS 9.4 on a windows machine.
- I run PostgreSQL server on a MAC: PostgreSQL 9.3.5 on
x86_64-apple-darwin12.5.0, compiled by Apple LLVM version 5.1, 64-bit
I've Pgadmin 1.18.1 installed.
Any help would be much appreciated!!
THANKS!
PS: For several reasons, I cannot use the bulkload feature in SAS for
this job.
That error is coming from SAS, not PG. SAS must have pretty bad
documentation because when I google "GLOBAL SYSDBRC HY000" there is
pretty much nothing. (Also, I've never used, or even heard of SAS.
At first I thought you meant serial attached scsi)
Does SAS support a cursor of some kind?
-Andy
SAS: Statistical Analysis System (this is the original name I remember,
I think they have renamed it)
SAS: Special Air Service (elite British fighting force, deliberately
misnamed to confuse the Germans in World War II)
Funny, just now I thought of the second definition first, but obviously
the first applies.
I actually used SAS many years ago, long before I had written any SQL -
let alone directly used any database!
Cheers,
Gavin
