The message "NO BODY FILE. HTML OUTPUT WILL NOT BE CREATED" was changed to an ERROR message in SAS® 9.4


Since the following message prevents output from being generated in SAS 9.4, it has been changed into an ERROR message. Prior to SAS 9.4, it was a WARNING message.

Here is the message that you see in SAS 9.4:

NOTE: WRITING HTML BODY FILE: HTMOUT ERROR: A COMPONENT OF XXXXX.XXXXX.XXXXX IS NOT A DIRECTORY. ERROR: NO BODY FILE. HTML OUTPUT WILL NOT BE CREATED.

Here is the message that you see in SAS® 9.1.3, SAS® 9.2, and SAS® 9.3:

NOTE: WRITING HTML BODY FILE: HTMOUT ERROR: A COMPONENT OF XXXXXX.XXXXXX.XXXXXX IS NOT A DIRECTORY. WARNING: NO BODY FILE. HTML OUTPUT WILL NOT BE CREATED.

In SAS 9.4, if you code the SAS System Option ERRORABEND, you get a U999 abend and the above error message for SAS 9.4.
