The following error affects the /public/viewdata service, only when running on SAS 9 EBI against a metadata table for which a physical table does not exist (or cannot be read using the META engine):

MPRINT(X):   data work.groups;
MPRINT(X):   length groupuri groupname $32 groupdesc $128 ;
MPRINT(X):   output;
MPRINT(X):   stop;
MPRINT(X):   run;

ERROR: Variable groupuri is uninitialized.
ERROR: Variable groupname is uninitialized.
ERROR: Variable groupdesc is uninitialized.
NOTE: The SAS System stopped processing this step because of errors.
NOTE: Due to ERROR(s) above, SAS set option OBS=0, enabling syntax check mode. This prevents execution of subsequent data modification statements.
WARNING: The data set WORK.GROUPS may be incomplete.  When this step was stopped there were 0 observations and 3 variables.

The root cause is the implementation of STRICT MODE: https://core.sasjs.io/mp__init_8sas.html

The fix is to simply instantiate those variables, which will enable an empty set of tables to be displayed to the user.
