Failures might occur when you create an export file of a custom theme or attempt to import the theme in SAS® Viya® 2023.03


Exporting a custom theme in SAS Viya 2023.3 might be unsuccessful. A common scenario where this issue might occur is when you attempt to import the theme. When you try to import the theme, the following error might occur:

The selected import file is invalid or corrupted. Please select a valid file to import

As a result, the export process writes the following error message to the theme service log:

ERROR 2023-05-30 17:07:30.462 +0000 [sas-themes] - Error occurred while exporting theme name=<THEME NAME> id=T66a4ed9a712b4042b2e0ab0322b5c551 error: zip: write to directory

This issue is corrected in later releases of the SAS Viya software.
