Analysis Services - Step by Step: Errors related to feature availability and configuration

On page 56 of SQL Server 2005 Analysis Services Step by Step, I tried to DEPLOY the project, and it failed with this msg:

Errors related to feature availability and configuration: The 'Measure expressions' feature is not included in the 'Standard Edition' SKU.

Is it because of my Standard Edition? If it is, could I change the 'Measure expressions' some how to get by this msg and go on with the book?

Yes, you are running into this situation because you working against Standard edition of SQL Server Analysis Services.

You can install free trial edition from http://www.microsoft.com/sql/downloads/trial-software.mspx. It has full set of features for you to comlete any tutorial.

As for the steps described in the book, or how to work around them. You should point your questions to the authors of the book.

An error occurred while established a connection

Hello

I am getting this err msg when trying to logon to my website on the web - on my machine there is no prob,

An error occurred while established a connection to the server.
When connection to Sql.S 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that
under the default settings sql.s doesn't allow remote connection.
(provider ql.S Network interface, error:26- Error Location Server/Interface Specified)

(the files path is like in the web host s)

now this msg is related to the ASPNETDB.MDF (dont use sql.s db but this file)

thanks

Please check this blog for solutions:

Do you have tcp/ip enabled on the server? If you connect from the local machine, you probably won't see the problem but when connecting from a remote machine, you will need tcp/ip enabled. Here are the steps from msdn:

Enable the TCP/IP protocol in SQL Server 2005. To do this, follow these steps:

1. Open SQL Server Configuration Manager. 2. Expand SQL Server 2005 Network Configuration. 3. Click Protocols for SQLInstanceName. SQLInstanceName is a placeholder for the name of the instance of SQL Server 2005. 4. Enable TCP/IP.

Always the Worker Thread

I received the following msg resulting from a backup: (partial) "increase the
maximum worker threads for the SQL Server SQLSRVR\SSDDWP_SQL2. Or decrease
the maximum number of databases to backup concurrently". There is a another
full backup at a different time of day on this server that succeeds. This
instance is on a cluster server. I do not receive this msg throughout the
day. I do have 400 or so connections throughout the day. My threads are set
to the default of 255. I have 4 CPUs in each server. How can I accommodate
this backup? Would the idea be to run the dbcc sqlperf(UMSSTATS) at the same
time the backup is occurring?
One other question on the dbcc sqlperf(UMSSTATS). So my "work queued" at 0
or 1 and idle workers should be close to the same number as num workers?
thanks
