Installing CST in SAS EG

[YDangPMC]

Hello,
I'm trying to install the open source CST to use in SAS EG. I've installed Apache ANT and downloaded the v1.7.5 release package. In the config.properties file (C:\Program Files\SASHome\SASStudioSingleUser\3.8\war\config), I've added the following.

#---SAS Clinical Standards toolkit
SET CSTHOME C:Users\Y.D.Dang_pc\Documents\SAS CST\cstFrameworkLibrary
CSTGLOBALLIB C:Users\Y.D.Dang_pc\Documents\SAS CST\cstGlobalLibrary
CSTSAMPLELIB C:Users\Y.D.Dang_pc\Documents\SAS CST\cstSampleLibrary
insert sasautos '!CSTHOME/macros'
JREOPTIONS (-Dsas.app.class.dirs=!CSTHOME/jar)
SET CLASSPATH !CSTHOME/jar

I'm currently however unable to run any of the programs. E.g. if I run cstvalidate I'm getting the following message:
WARNING: Apparent symbolic reference _CST_RC not resolved.
ERROR: A character operand was found in the %EVAL function or %IF condition where a numeric operand is required. The condition was:
&_cst_rc
ERROR: The macro CSTVALIDATE will stop executing.

1. Is the config file the correct one as I'm using SAS EG.
2. If correct should I add a '-' before each line. E.g. -SET CSTHOME.... ( It is originally added in the txt file in sctFrameworklibrary)
3. I'm not able to stop server. Is it automatically stopped if I close SAS EG? A local server on my machine is used.
4. Any other points that I've missed that might cause these errors?

Thanks,
Yen

I'm not sure about EG configurations but I did notice that your paths are missing a slash: C:Users... should be C:\Users...

[YDangPMC]

Thanks,
But it's still not working. I've added the slash and an include to run the cstFramework programs and initialized the global macro variables,
But I'm still getting a fatal error in cstvalidate and several libraries can not be found.

Added in SAS program:
%include "C:\Users\Y.D.Dang_pc\Documents\SAS CST\cstFrameworkLibrary\macros*.sas";

/*
initialize the global macro variables needed by the framework
/
Options macrogen symbolgen mlogic mprint mfile;
%cst_setstandardproperties(

,_cstSubType=initialize
);
/
initialize the global macro variables needed by CDISC SDTM
*/

let's start by seeing what's actually defined in your SAS session for CST. Start your SAS session and run this code.

%put %sysget(CSTHOME);
%put %sysget(CLASSPATH);

proc options
option=cstgloballib
option=cstsamplelib
option=sasautos
option=jreoptions;
run;

[YDangPMC]

Below the log. It doesn't seem like adding the set statements to the properties config file worked.

25 GOPTIONS ACCESSIBLE;

26 %put %sysget(CSTHOME);

You need to add the CST config statements to the SAS configuration file. SASHOME/SASFoundation/9.4/nls/en/sasv9.cfg.

[YDangPMC]

I've addit to the sasV9 file, but I get the same result.
If I add csthome and classpath in windows as system environment variables I do get a path for csthome and classpath, but the cstgloballib and cstsamplelib are still empty.

Added in sasv9.cfg:
/* This is the ANSI character set (for SAS Monospace font and ANSI Sasfont) */
-FORMCHAR '82838485868788898A8B8C2B3D7C2D2F5C3C3E2A'x

Maybe of additional note I use the sasv9.cfg in the u8 file.
In the C:\Program Files\SASHome\SASFoundation\9.4\sasv9.csf file I've specified: -config "C:\Program Files\SASHome\SASFoundation\9.4\nls\u8\sasv9.cfg" instead of 'en'
But if I add the config statements to the u8 sasv9.cfg file then I get an error 'A connection to the server could not be established'.
