How To Connect To Analysis Service Database Through Reporting Service?
Mar 31, 2006
Hello,
In our project, we would like to use the same data source for our analysis service database cubes and for our reporting service reports.
I created the analysis service project first, deployed successfully. When trying to setting up the data source in the report model project, I selected the "create a data source based on another object", and then selected the "create a data source based on an analysis service project". However, there is no analysis service project to select, and no browse button to see where the reporting service is looking for analysis service project either.
I have tried creating a new analysis service project with data source views, cubes, dimensions and all the stuff, but still cannot see the analysis service project in the drop down box to be selected for my reporting model project data source.
As I am fairly new to the reporting service, I'm sure I'm missing something, but couldn't find much information in the help or on the web. Any suggestion would be much appreciated.
This one has really stumped me! I set up HTTP to connect to an Analysis Services cube within an ASP .NEt application. On inititial setup it worked well and I was able to connect and view the data in my ASP application.
However, for NO reason that I can see it is now coming up with the following error:
Either a connection cannot be made to the localhost server, or Analysis Services is not running on the computer specified.
Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.
Exception Details: System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException: Either a connection cannot be made to the localhost server, or Analysis Services is not running on the computer specified.
I have tried everything I can think of to fix it but can't get it to work. I have even gone through the technet document titled "Resolving Common Connectivity Issues in SQL Server 2005 Analysis Services Connectivity Scenarios" but it hasn't helped.
I am using SQL Server (Analysis Services) 2005 and ASP .NET 2.0. The application is developed in VS 2005.
1)Where do I do the dateDiff calculation, at report or cube level? 2)How do I work out which dates belong to the above groups? I'm assuming i have to check if the dateDiff lies between those numbers?
I have configured an instance to use static port, say 1435, and I turned off the Browser service.
I would like to know if I can use SSMSE to connect to the instance database directly. The instance is listening at port 1435 and accepting connection requests from other methods.
What I need to put into the "Server name: " field?
Normally, it would be like: <serverIP><InstanceID> with Browser turned on.
Now how do I add the port information to it, I tried
i have a list report some values of this are blank or null i want to avoid that spacing if it is null like name:jjj lastname kkk firstname address uuuu
i want it should be name jjj lastname kkk address uuuu

I googled but not found anything useful. Thanks in advance!!!
We are using the whole BI-package from Microsoft - from SQL, DTS-package,Raporting Service and Analyze Service.
It should be very helpful to be able to create a metadata databases where you could find all releations between different objects (tables,views,reports,cubes,DTS-package,Databases.
Just to get answer for: 'where is view xxx used', 'what are Report xxx depending upon'.
While everything exists in different SQL databases it should possible to do.
i have AAAA project create by BI, now i want to change my computer, so i get XMLA from AAAA project in BI and run it in analysis service XMLA query but it return follow error: Executing the query ... Either the user, PCHOMEmax, does not have access to the Analysis Services Project1 database, or the database does not exist.
Execution complete
i try another way: i click right mouse on my database from analysis service, so i choice "Script database as "--> CREATE to... and i get a new XMLA file so igo to another computer, and run it, SQL return follow error: Executing the query ... Either the user, PCHOMEmax, does not have access to the AAAA database, or the database does not exist.
Execution complete can i solve this problem. thanks
I was doing the microsoft example about cube to setup DSN SOURCE CONNECTION to ACCESS database (food mart) when i do a test
but after i do design storage and go to Process the cube it gives me error
'test connection failed because of an error in initializing provide (microsoft) ODBC DRIVER manager data source name not found and no default driver specified
one more error found Microsoft ODBC DRIVER MANAGER driver sql connect attr failed: IMOO6
I am connecting to SSAS cube from Excel and I have date dimension with 4 fields (I have others but I don't use it for this case). I created 4 fields in order to test all possible scenarios that I could think of:
DateKey: - Type: System.Integer - Value: yyyyMMdd Date: - Type: System.DateTime DateStr0: - Type: System.String - Value: dd/MM/yyyy (note: I am not using US culture) - Example: 01/11/2015 DateStr1: - Type: System.String - Value: %d/%M/yyyy (note: I am not using US culture) - Example: 1/11/2015
Filtering on date is working fine:
Initially, in excel, filtering on date was not working. But after changing dimensional type to time, and setting DataType to Date, as mentioned in [URL] filter is working fine as you can see in the picture.Grouping on date is not working:
I have hierarchy in my Date dimension and I can group based on hierarchy, no problem. But user is used to pre-build grouping function of excel, and he wants to use that. Pre-build functions of Excel, Group and ungroup seems to be available as you can see in following picture:
But when user clicks 'Group', excel groups it as if it is a string, and that is the problem. User wants to group using pre-build grouping function available in Pivot table. I also find out that Power Pivot Table does not support this excel grouping functionality. And if I understood well, this pre-build grouping functionality of excel, needs to do calculation at run time, and that is not viable solution if you have millions of rows. So Power pivot table does not support pre-build grouping functionality of excel and hence we need to use dimension hierarchy to do the grouping. But I am not using Power Pivot table, I am using simple Pivot Table. So I expect grouping functionality to be working fine. Then I tried to do simple test. I created a simple data source in excel itself. And use it as source of my Pivot table. Then grouping is working fine. The only difference that I can see is (When double click the Measure value in Excel),For date values of my simple test, excel consider them as 'Date'.
For date values of my data coming from cube, excel consider them as 'General'
2.1. But value here is same as it was in simple test.
2.2. 'Date Filter' works just fine.
2.3. If I just select this cell and unselect it, then excel change type to 'Date' though for that cell.
2.4. I have created 4 different types of fields in my date dimension thinking that values of attribute of my dimension might be the problem, but excel consider 'General' for all of them.
2.5 This value (that can be seen when double clicking on measure) comes from 'Name Column' of the attribute. And the DataType defined is WChar. And I thought that might be the reason of issue. And I changed it to 'Date'. But SSAS does not allow it to change to 'Date' giving error : The 'Date' data type is not allowed for the 'NameColumn' property; 'WChar' should be used.
So, I don't know, what is the puzzle piece that I am missing.
1. Date filter works, group does not work
2. Excel consider it as 'General' string.
3. SSAS does not allow to change 'NameColumn' to Date.
I would like to know the best practice for running analysis service in terms of port usage. Is it better to run on a specific port or have dynamic ports ? We have clustered servers that run default on 2383 but not sure with non clustered what's the best way to get performance.
I'm in a trouble. So, I need to query some data in DB2 with Reporting Service. I don't know if there's a way to do it, without using DTS Package, because if I did it, I'd be replicating it, and it's not the case. 'Cause I just want to query the data in DB2 and not bring the data to SQL.
There's a provider that I can do it? Suppose I use a Linked Server, and add a Net-Library based on their Operational System, it would resolve? If not, what would be the best way of resolving this trouble??
set up asp .net user account on sql server 2005Question:
I've read the instructions in this article: http://www.netomatix.com/Development/aspnetuserpermissions.aspxBut do not know how to do this:You can grant 'Network Service' or 'ASPNET' user accounts permissions to connect to database.Please provide example on how to do this, thanks!
I am using SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services. I want to make it secure. I am also using WCF services and made them secure using Claim based System.Identity Model.
I want to apply same claim based model to Reporting Services.
I have installed SQL Reporting Service on one server. Using the config tool, I am trying to setup the Reporting Database on a seperate SQL instance. This SQL instance is running on a Clustered SQL 2005 server.
The creation of the Database is sucessful. However when I give the Windows credentials to connect to this database on the same page, I always fail at the following task : Setting Connection Info for Reporting Server. The error message is :
"System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x800706B3) at System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.ThrowExceptionForHRInternal(Int32 errorCode, IntPtr errorInfo) at System.Management.ManagementObject.Get() at ReportServicesConfigUI.WMIProvider.RSReportServerAdmin.SetDatabaseConnection(String server, String database, ConfigurationCredentialsType credsType, String userName, String password)"
The Windows Account I am using has Full SQL Rights to the Clustered SQL Server. I have seen other posts on the forums about the 0x800706B3 error, but most of them are related to a problem with RPC.
The Reporting Services account is runing under 'Network Services'. I am not sure if this is causing the problem?

Is there any method by which I can use Stored procedures in Analysis services. I have some procedures which uses Temprorary tables. I wanna use those procedures's columns. Is it possible?
I am running XP in the office and already have SQL's Enterprise Manager and Analysis services installed - which I can use to access the SQL databases on our office server.
Question: I have installed the desktop version of SQL on my machine and am trying to register the server in the Analysis Service Manager but no luck.
I was doing steps on page 15 / 16 of attached sheet

I give up, how do you start the Analysis Manager? SSAS is installed and running, but I just can't seem to find the button/shortcut/whatever to start the manager.

Needles to say, above link is useless..
I had managed to install previously, but ran into problems while trying to upsize an MS-Access database, I've tried everything from creating certificate to hacking away at the registry...Log-on with a different account, etc...Anybody knows how to get around this?

I was facing problems applying SP3 for Analysis Services so I removed it and then re-installed.
I then tried to apply SP3 but I am still getting v8.00.382 for AS (which represents SP1). I have tried a couple of things but it seems that SP3 is just not getting applied (for Analysis Services).
I have installed MS analysis service(OLAP) on my lap top
my user is in the Administrative group , other than that I tried creating a user with 'OLAP ADMINISTRATOR' privilate and tried to start the ms analysis service
I am getting the error , unable to start the service on server(), you are not a member of OLAP Administrators group
I tried to install the service pack 3 from Microsoft
Could you pleae guide me to start this serivice Thanks,
I am new to SQL Server and not quite understand the difference between OLAP server or SQL Analysis Service. Are they referring to the same thing?? An user asked me to confirm that the OLAP server is active on a server running SQL Server 2005, what do I need to check. The Analysis service is up and running, does it mean it is OK??
I created a SQL Server 2005 Analysis Service project. When I tried to deploy a standard Decision Tree model, it gave me errors (see below). Clearly, I can't use ntext data type with DISTINCT, but how can I change the SQL command since it was automatically created? What was the final impact of removing the DISTINCT word from the SQL command?
SQL queries 1 SELECT DISTINCT [dbo_Training_x0020_Data].[Hellos] AS [dbo_Training_x0020_DataHellos0_0]
FROM [dbo].[Training Data] AS [dbo_Training_x0020_Data]
Error Messages 1 OLE DB error: OLE DB or ODBC error: The ntext data type cannot be selected as DISTINCT because it is not comparable.; 42000.
I have installed SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition for our Team Foundation Server install. I have verified the installation and all seems well, except that the Analysis Services service does not remain started. I get a message like "Some services stop if there is nothing to do." The Analysis service needs to be running in order for the TFS install to succeed. How can I get the Analysis Services service to remain started?
