    <p>I'm not sure if this is the correct part of the stackoverflow family to be posting this question to so I apologize if this isn't the correct site.</p> <p>I'm trying to setup a new installation of SAS on Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.5 on a 64-bit machine and I keep getting an error when attempting to run the setup.sh file included with SAS. In the terminal I receive the following:</p> <pre><code>An error occurred while launching Java. Please check the following log file: /home/user/.SASAppData/SASDeploymentWizard/deploywiz_2013-12-15-23.41.42.log /tmp/_setup21770/products/javaruntime__99185__lax__xx__sp0__1/lib/i386/xawt/libmawt.so: libXext.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory </code></pre> <p>If I look at the error log I receive the following:</p> <pre><code>Sun Dec 15 23:16:36 EST 2013 Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: /tmp/_setup13184/products/javaruntime__99185__lax__xx__sp0__1/lib/i386/xawt/libmawt.so: libXext.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory at java.lang.ClassLoader$NativeLibrary.load(Native Method) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadLibrary0(Unknown Source) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadLibrary(Unknown Source) at java.lang.Runtime.load0(Unknown Source) at java.lang.System.load(Unknown Source) at java.lang.ClassLoader$NativeLibrary.load(Native Method) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadLibrary0(Unknown Source) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadLibrary(Unknown Source) at java.lang.Runtime.loadLibrary0(Unknown Source) at java.lang.System.loadLibrary(Unknown Source) at sun.security.action.LoadLibraryAction.run(Unknown Source) at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method) at sun.awt.NativeLibLoader.loadLibraries(Unknown Source) at sun.awt.DebugHelper.&lt;clinit&gt;(Unknown Source) at sun.awt.X11GraphicsEnvironment.&lt;clinit&gt;(Unknown Source) at java.lang.Class.forName0(Native Method) at java.lang.Class.forName(Unknown Source) at java.awt.GraphicsEnvironment.getLocalGraphicsEnvironment(Unknown Source) at com.sas.ssn.Kit.main(Kit.java:1653) </code></pre> <p>The strangest part is that I know libXtst (which from what I understand contains libXent) is installed properly. Running <code>locate libXtst</code> shows it in the following locations:</p> <pre><code>/usr/lib64/libXtst.so /usr/lib64/libXtst.so.6 /usr/lib64/libXtst.so.6.1.0 </code></pre> <p>and <code>yum list libXtst</code> returns <code>libXtst.x86_64 1.2.1-2.el6 @rhel-x86_64-server-6</code> as being installed.</p> <p>I've Googled this pretty extensively and haven't come up with any reasonable solutions, even the previous admin's documentation on SAS installations didn't help here. I'd really appreciate a hand or pointer in the correct direction.</p> <p>Edit: I forgot to include that if I run <code>setup.sh -console</code> I'm able to step through the text based installer.</p>

    1. CO`libXext`, not `libXtst`, but both should be installed by default on a generic Linux workstation. Check for the `libXext` package.

    2. CO@chrylis Thanks for the quick comment. `Yum list libXext` shows `libXext.x86_64 1.3.1-2.el6 @rhel-x86_64-server-6` as installed.

    3. COIf the suggestion @chrylis made doesn't work, I'd highly recommend putting in a ticket with [SAS support](http://support.sas.com). They're pretty fast to respond and are pretty good with installation support.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
