Analysis Services 2000 Tutorial

Has anyone tried the Quick Start tutorial?
I went through each of the steps and when I went to browse the data in the
Sales cube, I got the following error message:
Unable to browse the cube 'Sales'.
Unspecified error.
Has anyone else had this problem?
TIA
Try to apply service pack for Analysis Services. That works for me.

Analysis Services 2000 SP3 or SP3A - how to identify ?

Hi,

Is there a way to identify whether I have Analysis Services 2000 SP3 or SP3A ?

Thank you very much.

You can go to Help/About and Google your version number. ?

Worked for me.

|||Code wise, you can read the registry on the server's LOCAL_MACHINE \ Software\Microsoft\OLAP Server\CurrentVersion and look at the VersionNum and CSDVersionNumber

analysis services 2000 error "cannot access registry on server(servername) or you are not a

I recently had to reinstall AS2000. Since then , if i dont run the service under the local account i get a "could not access registry on (localserver) or analysis you are not part of Olap administrators group on this server" error.


I am in the sql server admins group, and the olap admins group, as is the service account I want to run AS2000 under. I have granted admin access explicitly to the Hikey_local_machine\ software\microsoft\olap server registry entries, to the service account and my account.


I have installed AS2000 SP3a and rebooted the machine. I am still stuck with the error. When i check the "actual permissions" of my account, and the service account to run the AS service under, they have full admin permission to the machine.

If i run it under "local System Account" it works, but i need to run it under the service account.

All google tells me is to install sp 3a, which i have done twice, to no avail.


Has anyone solved this bug, or do they know the reason for it?

Hello! If you have AS2000 on a separate server and the administration console on another workstation you can check that they have the same service pack installed.

I also know, from experience, that this problem problem can appear if the pasword for the service account have extended its time limit.

Any firewalls between workstations and the server?

|||hi. thanks for replying. Im working exclusively off the server, not connecting from another pc. no firewalls in use in the domain either.

Analysis Services 2000 Error - OlapObjects

Good day

I'm having trouble registering an AS 2000 server. The following is the error I receive:

"The cube 'OlapObjects' does not exist, or it is not processed"

Both servers have Service Pack 4 installed.

What does this mean? Google is not much help either.

You might need to post the exact step you are performing. Registering a server in Analysis Manager does not try to access any cubes so this error does not make sense. And OlapObjects is the name of the table in the OLAP repository for AS2000, but you should NEVER access that directly.

Analysis Services 2000 + Reporting Services 2005 + Parameters

Hi All,

I'm trying to create reports in RS2005 using AS2000 as my data source. I understand that if I use RS2005 on AS2000, I wont be able to enjoy the OLAP based parameters as in using AS2005. Does anyone know an easy way to easily use Parameters in RS2005 while still using AS2000?

Regards,

Joseph

I don't think I've tried RS 2005 against AS 2000, but my best bet is that you create an OLE DB connection against your cube, and then learn how to write MDX.

You need to create MDX queries for the parameters that you want to get from your OLAP cube as well as the main query.

All parameterized queries need to be prefixed with =" and ended with ", and to be on one line. (Copy into notepad, turn off word wrap and make it stay on one single line.)

I suggest you read through some articles by Bill Pearson over at Databasejournal.com
