I am unable to call a package with a cube processing task... it will not execute. I have even tried to simply call a package to process foodmart on my own machine and it will not run. The package when run manually executes fine.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance
We are using SQL 2005, Visual Studio 2005, SSIS, and SSAS. We have built our Dimensional model in SQL 2005, we have build our packages to complete full refresh of Dimensional model using SSIS. We have built SSAS cube using VS 2005. We built source, data source, cube and dimensions using auto build. We processed cube in VS 2005 by right clicking on solution and click process. Cube was built in Analysis Services. We made some schema changes to model then data changes in SSIS packages. We then pulled up cube in VS 2005 right click on solution and process. Cube is being re-built. After completion we check cube using Proclarity and Excel 2007 and notice the schema changes and data changes did not take. We dropped cube, then deleted data source, dimensions, and cube then re-created data source view and cube auto build then process and now have new schema changes and data changes.
Why is process not working to re-build schema and data changes when we have process FULL selected, Changes only. We even tried rebuild, deploy, and process. What is it we are missing or not doing correctly?????????

Hi,
I am new to cube process.
I started full process for the partition in the cube which runs for 24 hours.
By then due to some server error I was logged out.
Is there a way to find out which of the partition were processed.
There was no log file for the DTS package earlier.
I just created one now.
thanks for any help
There is a function called "proactive caching" in Analysis services. It can:
----Automatic synchronization with the relational database
----No more explicit "cube processing
But I cannot have the latest data in the cube even I set the proactive mode as "real time"
Do I need SSIS to process cube in this case?
Following is the procedures I have done:
1. test the data
1.1 use the bi dev studio to browser the cube, ensure no new data are there
1.2 process the the cube and browser the data, ensure new data are there
1.3 delete new data from source database and reprocess the cube, ensure no new data are there
1.4 add new data again
2. configure the proactive setting of cube
2.1 use sql server management studio to open the cube and open the properties window
2.2 in the option of "proactive caching" select "low-latency MOLAP" (even real-time ROLAP later), then click ok
3. configure the proactive setting of cube
3.1 open the patitions view properties window
3.2 in the option of "proactive caching" select "low-latency MOLAP" (even real-time ROLAP later), then click ok
3.3 in the notification tab, select "sql server " and specifiy tracking tables to the "fact table", which is a view to get data from real fact table.
4. wait a period of time...
5. test the data again
5.1 use the bi dev studio to browser the cube, but no new data are there (even I selected real-time ROLAP later). I even tried the reconnect and refresh options in the tool bar
So my questions are :
1. Did I do the right thing to achieve the target "Automatic synchronization with the relational database "
2. Can I monitor the procedure of synchronization, such as monitoring the log of processing, viewing the schedule setting and status of the process?
Thanks a lot!
Hello,
I want to make a package in SSIS for automatic process of my data cube providing some log informations (two INSERT statements to my log table with actual date and result of operation succesful/unsuccesful). I tried to set data source to analysis services, I found my cube but I don't where I can add my cube to project and how can I desingn it. Can anybody tell me how to??? Thanks
Dear all,
I'd like to get simple and clear explanation of the cube in data mining, and 3 notions we encounter a lot : Build, Deploy, and Process.
(1) What is the cube that is created when we deploy a mining solution/project?
I wonder what type of cubes they are because although the dialog on deploy/process
show that cube, after successful deployment we still don't see the cube in Cubes folder
of the project.
(2) Why the SQL Server created that cube? Even though we process only one table
and only use case-table (without nested table)
(3) Can someone explain these 3 concepts with CLEAR differences between them?
(A) Build
(B) Deploy
(C) Process
As far as I know, the stages are like that : build, then deploy, then process. Also, it seems
to me that those operations do not create objects inside 'Relational' database, but create
objects (binary and text, with text files usually in XMLA programming language) in the
related project's folders and subfolders. Any good explanation is appreciated.

Hi,
I want to process my cube using Process Data and Process Index instead of the Process Full. However, after configuring the 2 Analysis Services Processing Tasks (one for process data and the other for process index) and were executed sequentially (process data first then process index), I got this error:
Errors in the metadata manager. The process type specified for the CASES cube is not valid since it is not processed
Have I done the right thing?
The reason why I prefer using the Process Data and then Process Index, it's because it is much faster than the latter.

Our company is in the retail business, thus, the window for processing cubes is very small during Christmas season (only 4 hours each day).
To speed things up, we have partitioned our cube at monthly level so, potentially, 12 threads can be run simultantsly. However, when I looked at DTS, I am not so sure whether or how it can accomplish that task. Has anyone tried this before or is aware of another third party tool can do the trick?
thx in adcance,
Carl.
Hi guys,
I made a cube with time dimension with hieracly year/month/date/hour
the problem is that dimension is growin to fast. In older version of MSSQL (2000) the same dimension doesn't grew so much.
Any ideas? The table is big (may be around 1 500 000 rows per month) now it contains around 4 500 000 rows.
I have a requirement.
I have a CUBE in SQL 2000. I need to change the structure of Fact Table and i need to add one more dimension to my CUBE.
What are the problems will arise if i do this. i need to Fully process the CUBE?
PLS help me
Now I have a different constellation: Integration Services run on one server, in version 2014, the Analysis Services instance to process the cube database on runs on another server, version 2012.I tried several different combinations of SSIS version and Analysis Management Objects version, and got several errors while running the process package (e.g. object reference not set to an instance of an object, cannot find AnalyisServices.dll..)
Is this combination 2014/2012 possible at all?I assume the BIDS version has to be for SQL Server 2014, as I want to run SSIS packages on a 2014 server, is that correct? Does it matter at all, can I also deploy 2012 packages?Which version of Analysis Management Objects do I have to use? I assumed I have to use version 11.0 here, because I want to process a 2012 cube?If it is possible to use the "old" 11.0 version of AMO, do I have to do anything so that it can be found by the SSIS package running on the server (it was built on my local computer, there I have all SQL Server versions from 2005 to 2014 installed in parallel), or do I just have to copy it to the appropriate SQL Server folder?
Hi,
In my application, i have two package, parent package and child package. the parent package is executing child package using a Execute Package Task.
"Execute Out Of Process" property of Execute Package Task is set to TRUE. means the child package will be run in separate process not in the process of Parent package.
this was working fine, but at a particular client location. its failing the error is "not able to load child package".
for me it seems some setting on server restricting to create separate process for child package execution.
when "Execute Out Of Process" property of Execute Package Task is set to FALSE. its working fine.
can anyone help what could cause its failure with property set to TRUE.
Appreciate any help.
Hi guys! I'm new here!
Is there a way to create an ETL package that gets data from a flat file, puts it in a fact table and then it creates a cube based on the data without user intervention? So the package will generate automatically a cube that can be used in SSAS?
I am sorry if I did not make any sense. Thanks!
I am starting to brainstorm about building a package cube. Here are some of the initial ideas I have.

Do you know of some good cube schema's for reporting on SSIS package's? If this has already been done then I would rather not reinvent the wheel.
Hi All,
I have some clarifications on stopping my package once cube is refreshed or processed.
Below i have given steps for the transformation in my package
Let me give you what are all the dataflow transformations that i had given in my package.
1. Data Flow Task
2. Script Task 1- I have written code for getting the last processed cube (global variable has been declared for Last processed cube date - lastProcessedCube)
3. Script Task 2 - I have written code for SS_Batch table where i can get Create_Ts date that is assigned to another global variable - create_ts.
4. Analysis Processing Task.
In between Script Task 2 and Analysis Processing Task i have given @lastProcessedCube > @create_ts for Expression and Constraint under Precedence Constraint Editor
Actually i need to run package for every 10 minutes which i can do it in Job Schedule and need to refresh or process the cube daily. Is there any way to stop the package once when my cube is processed on that day. Again start the package for the next day.... Is it possible to do this? Please let me know.
Thanks in Advance,

Hi All,
can anybody help me in creating the SSIS package to transfer the data from SQL table in database engine to OLAP cube in Analysis services
Thanks in Advance.

Hi All,
I have created database and OLAP cube in Analysis services using SSAS.In SSAS I have used a datasource which is using SQL tables to populate OLAP cube.Now when I added some more data to my SQL tables and trying to deploy cube,the newly added is not getting populated in the cube.So i want run SSIS package which will import data from SQL tables to this OLAP cube.
Can you please help me how to write this SSIS package to import data from SQL tables to OLAP cube.(Very urgent issue)
Thanks in Advance,

I expect to create a trigger to post updated data from GoldMine hosted in MS-SQL to my migration MS-SQL database in the appropriate tables mirroring the destination PICK data tables.
Then, start an ActiveX DTS package to migrate the data via a PICK DSN to data tables in a PICK database.
Currently the dba has been able to use VB6.0 with ADO to push data into PICK. He also was able to do similar using MS-Access.
However, PICK (RainingData) is of the opinion that he must script a PICK server side Basic (RealBasic) insert script to receive the data from a VB6.0 application triggered by MS-SQL.
I think that I could skip the Basic script and go direct with ADO in DTS as he has before with VB6.0 with a user form.
Can I have the trigger start the DTS or should I just schedule it to run as often as necessary to update the PICK database?
FYI, this is a one-way data flow into PICK.
TIA
Anyone within the L.A. CA area that has experience with PICK and MS-SQL can get some well paid consulting hours. I'm just the GoldMine GMT whose been enlisted to get the job done, but would appreciate an expert with PICK to join the project.

Hello All SQL Experts.
Need your advise on this. I have a DTS package which check for 2 dates and execute tasks when the date do not matched. The problem I am facing now is I could make the next step to start only if the previous step is completed. When the DTS package is executed, all steps being completed almost at the same time. See below / attached DTS package.
In the disgram, I have labelled 5 steps A ~ E, each step needs info from the finished product from previous step to produce correct result in it's own step. I couldn't schedule each step to run at different time because the DTS kicks off based on a file that comes in and each step doesn't have a fixed processing time to complete.
I have tried using On Success or On Complete and both options start the next step immediately not not wait for the job the complete or success. I guess this is because I have transferred the command to external when using command. Is there a way to control by some delay between each task?
Please advise. Thank you.
Each of the step has something like below (refreshing of excel file with macro build in):- I cannot build all macros into one file and run from the main excel.
declare @MainUpdate datetime
declare @TempUpdate datetime
select @MainUpdate=Main_Update_CET from APMEAPV_Compare
select @TempUpdate=Temp_Update_CET from APMEAPV_Compare
--select @MainUpdate, @TempUpdate
if @MainUpdate<>@TempUpdate
begin
DECLARE @commandK varchar(1000)
SET @commandK='Start Excel.exe "D:Daily_Status_Report_EDWHEDWH_Runbook_BTS.xls"'
exec master..xp_cmdshell @commandK, No_Output
END
My SSIS solution has about hundred packages and time to time I have to edit a package. I understand I could use 'Build' command to compile only updated package, as opposed to Rebuild which recomplies all of the packages.
Nevertheless, in both cases SSIS opens all of the packages in design environment before compilation. My packages are saved in SourceSafe and that process takes quite long and I was wondering if there was any other way to compile only updated package where none of the other packages are opened during Build/Rebuild process? For example we could use dtutil to deploy only updated packages without running Package Installation Wizard.
There is some way to exclude a package from the build process of a SSIS project ?

Hello,
I have several DTS packages that take data from SQL Server and exports them onto an Access DB located on the network. Basically, one Execute Process Task from within my DTS package takes the Access DB and zips it while another such task copies the zipped DB and pastes it onto another location on the network. All this works fine.
This export process happens once a month so each month I have to manually add a datestamp to the end of the Access DB file that’s being exported to distinguish it from prior month's export. For example, this month's export file would have AccessDB_20040727.mdb name and the next month it would be AccessDB_20040820.mdb (date is determined based on the date the output is exported on). AccessDB.mdb is the default name of the export DB and datestamp is added at the end of the file name depending on what date the export was run. As I said, I can do this manually each month and it works fine.
I want to, however, know if there is a way to automatically supply the datestamp to the Execute Process Task's Parameters' text box? Following is what I have right now in the Parameters box:
\ghf1-ndc8-sqll$productionoutputlob200406LOB_CF_forDril ldown_All_20040727.zip \ghf1-ndc8-sqll$productionoutputlob200406LOB_CF_forDril ldown_All.mdb
I want to take above text from the parameters box and replace it with something like:
\ghf1-ndc8-sqll$productionoutputlob200406FileName_RunDa te.zip \ghf1-ndc8-sqll$productionoutputlob200406LOB_CF_forDril ldown_All.mdb
Where FileName_RunDate is a variable/placeholder for the name of the output with the datestamp the output is exported on.
There are three different Execute Process Tasks that are happening within each of my DTS packages so it's a time consuming job to have to manually add a datestamp to each package every month when data is exported.
Does anyone know if what I am asking is doable? If I can use a variable in the parameters box of each Execute Process Task’s properties and supply current datestamp values to it prior to executing the package each month? If so then what are the ways? How would I do that?
Thanks much.

Has anyone ever used an Execute Package Task to call a child package, and the Execute Package Task's ExecuteOutOfProcess = True? Unless the account it runs under is an Administrator on the box, it fails for me with "Error 0x80070005 while loading package file "C:program filesmicrosoft sql server90dtsPackagesETLFact_SalesTransaction_Tracking.dtsx". Access is denied."
This is eating up hours and hours of my time, time we can't afford. Is anyone able to successfully call a child package out of process?
Hello
I'm trying to run a task that executes a script file (cmd). When i run it with in bids with my own users (domain admin) it works. When i start a cmd prompt and try to run the cmd file directly from the network location where it is it works (with my own rights and with the sql server agent user).
Now when i try to run in from smss > agent jobs > job and run job it never completes. Im not getting any error message either it just keeps on running on the step ??? It seems like a rights issue, but the account running the sql server agent is able to execute the cmd file directly from the command prompt.
There are no errors in any error logs anywhere and no error is displayed...
Ps. Im running the job step as a integration service pacgake.
I am just starting out using CUBEMEMBER/CUBEVALUE formulas in excel linked into a sql olap db - using this method for some custom reports where pivot tables are not suitable.
The time dimension values include Months, Quarters and Years and the CUBEMEMBER formulas like
=CUBEMEMBER("OLAPCUBE","[Time].[Time].[Year].&[2015].&[1].&[1]") work fine - 1st quarter 1st month etc.
Is there a straightforward notation to aggregate months or do I need to use a plus sign to add a number of CUBEMEMBER formulas together.In other words - Is there an easier way of for say jan to july 2015 totals than
=CUBEMEMBER("OLAPCUBE","[Time].[Time].[Year].&[2015].&[1]") + (CUBEMEMBER("OLAPCUBE","[Time].[Time].[Year].&[2015].&[2]")) + (CUBEMEMBER("OLAPCUBE","[Time].[Time].[Year].&[2015].&[3].&[7]"))
I haven't tested this but have assumed it works but a bit long and clumsy.
I have problems creating a cube with AMO.
I can add the cube to the database object and fill it with dimensions and a measuregroup (see code below).
If I call cube.Update() it says something like "Error in meta data manager. Cube has no measuregroups." (getting the message in german language)
The error in Microsoft.AnalysisServices.OperationException.Results.Messages is -1055653629
I can't find any documentation about this (or any other) error code in Microsoft documentation.
Here's my Code:
Cube newCube = database.Cubes.Add("MyCube","MyCube");
newCube.Language = 1031;
newCube.Collation = "Latin1_General_CI_AS";
CubeDimension dim = newCube.Dimensions.Add("dim1","dim1","dim1");
CubeAttribute attrib = dim.Attributes.Find("dim1Attr1");
[code]....
When I make a call to GetSchemaDataset with a restriction of a cube name with a space in the name of the cube the call fails. Following is a sample of the code: adoRestriction = new AdomdRestriction("CATALOG_NAME", "Contoso Telecom_Contoso"); adoRestrictions.Add(adoRestriction); dataSet = conn.GetSchemaDataSet("MDSCHEMA_CUBES", adoRestrictions); I am running SQL Server 2005 Analysis Services SP2. Is there some way to qualify the cube name in the restriction or is this just a bug? Thanks.

Hi.
I have a master package, which executes child packages that are located on a SQL Server. The Child packages execute other child packages which are also located on the SQL server.
Everything works fine when I execute in process. But when I set the parameter in the mater package ExecutePackageTask to ExecuteOutOfProcess = True, I get the following error
Error: 0xC00470FE at DFT Load Data, DTS.Pipeline: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_PRODUCTLEVELTOLOW. The product level is insufficient for component "Row Count" (5349).

Error: 0xC00470FE at DFT Load Data, DTS.Pipeline: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_PRODUCTLEVELTOLOW. The product level is insufficient for component "DST_SCR Load Data" (6149).
The child packages all run fine when executed directly, and the master package runs fine if Execute Out of Process is False.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
I was trying to extract data from the source server using OLEDB Source and SQL Server Destination when i encountered this error:
"Transaction (Process ID 135) was deadlocked on lock resources with another process and has been chosen as the deadlock victim. Rerun the transaction.".
What must be done so that even if the table being queried is locked, i wouldn't experience any deadlock?

Hello all,
I am running into an interesting scenario on my desktop. I'm running developer edition on Windows XP Professional (9.00.3042.00 SP2 Developer Edition). OS is autopatched via corporate policy and I saw some patches go in last week. This machine is also a hand-me-down so I don't have a clean install of the databases on the machine but I am local admin.
So, starting last week after a forced remote reboot (also a policy) I noticed a few of the databases didn't start back up. I chalked it up to the hard shutdown and went along my merry way. Friday however I know I shut my machine down nicely and this morning when I booted up, I was in the same state I was last Wenesday. 7 of the 18 databases on my machine came up with
FCB:pen: Operating system error 32(The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.) occurred while creating or opening file 'C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDataTest.mdf'. Diagnose and correct the operating system error, and retry the operation.
and it also logs
FCB:pen failed: Could not open file C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDataTest.mdf for file number 1. OS error: 32(The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.).
I've caught references to the auto close feature being a possible culprit, no dice as the databases in question are set to False. Recovery mode varies on the databases from Simple to Full. If I cycle the SQL Server service, whatever transient issue it was having with those files is gone.
As much as I'd love to disable the virus scanner, network security would not be amused. The data and log files appear to have the same permissions as unaffected database files. Nothing's set to read only or archive as I've caught on other forums as possible gremlins. I have sufficient disk space and the databases are set for unrestricted growth.
Any thoughts on what I could look at? If it was everything coming up in RECOVERY_PENDING it's make more sense to me than a hit or miss type of thing I'm experiencing now.
