I have a big problem to solve: I use MsSqlServer 2000, Analysis service. I have cubes and virtual cubes. I have a dimension of consult, they have a hierarchy that change every month. for example: In june the consult "John" is in D11, in September he is on D14,... Hierarchie: D10 -> D11, D12, D13 - > C1, C2.. For this reason when i want analysis The consult John in a year(12 months) my result is wrong. With this changes in the hierarchie my analysis become wrong! I thought in the end of every month store the cube in a local cube, like a picture of every consult, with his sales e others measures. With this i can analysis the consult in a specific month rightly, but i need the anlysis in a year. And in a year i would have 12 local cubes, then i could acess them and do a right analysis. How could i access 12 local cubes? Can i create a virtual cube with this 12 local cubes? Is there another solution for this problem?
I want to use the Office Web Components (v10) PivotTable embedded in a web page. The examples and tutorials I've been able to find on MSDN all use the same architecture: The initial pivottable configuration is created by instantiating the object server-side and programmatically configuring it. The XMLDATA property is then read and sent to the client. At the client, script sets the XMLDATA property. So far so good, all makes sense. Then my problem: The PivotTable is then connected to Analysis Server using an http connection string (through IIS). As my users do not have database accounts, only application accounts, I cannot allow database connection information on the client. Trouble is, the PivotTable generates MDX queries when a user reconfigures the view, and there are no hooks (events or other means) to programmatically obtain the generated MDX query - a fact that is explicitly confirmed in MSDN documentation.
This clearly means that the PT must be connected directly to it's data source. So I thought I could just create a local MOLAP cube file and download it to the client (permissible as it runs as a trusted application). But nowhere can I find any example or documention on how to do this.
This is driving me slightly insane and I have little hair left now; if anyone knows how to do it or where to find proper PivotTable documentation (rather than a collection of examples that do something else from what I need to do!) then help is greatly :p appreciated!
Here's what I need to do. I need to programmatically create offline cubes for multiple customers. Using VS2005 (C#) and SQL Server 2000, I am able to do this using the CREATE GLOBAL CUBE command. However, I need to create cubes from SQL Server 2005 as we have upgraded and the CREATE GLOBAL CUBE command does not work as it did before. I've search and found examples using AMO, but they create a server cube. I already have a server cube. I need to be able to create filtered offline cubes from the existing server cube. I've also read much on XMLA, but that doesn't do it for me either. The code below creates an empty offline cube. However, is there a way to use this to create a cube with data? I am creating this in a windows application.
We are using a SSAS Server in order to analyse financial data. To create forecast scenarios, we would like to use the "what-if-analysis"-feature of Excel. With this feature, data that was changed in Excel can be written back into the cube.
There are several data analyists who should be able to create scenarios on their own, that's why, each of them gets his own offline cube (a .cub file that is stored in the file system) whose data is extracted from the SSAS Server.
Unfortunately, we found no way to write back data in these offline cubes. Due to the error message, Excel failed to establish a connection to the external data source. Is there a way to writeback data to a local cube?
hi, I'm creating local cube with Delphi. On my server with MSSQL it work well, but i need to know, which parts of MSSQL is needful to create this local cube (on the server) if i will creat and instal new server with MS SQL.
Although I can create the local cube, the cube that is created is very large because it brings over all accounts for the employee. In AS2K, it filtered automatically and only returned accounts that had revenue, which is what I'm trying to do using AS2005. I've read some of the responses about using XMLA and AMO, but I am not sure how to use these within the VS2005 windows application that I use to create and distribute the local cubes. Does anyone have a good example of how to use XMLA, AMO or anything else that would allow me to programmatically create and filter offline cubes using C#?
For instance, this code DOES create an empty cube. But how would I go about getting data into this cube? Server server = new Server(); server.Connect(@"Data Source=c:MyLocalCube.cub"); server.Disconnect();
I broke up my cube into 24 partitions. There are about 630M total fact rows in that cube.
When I open the cube to browse in BIDS or SQL Management Studio it takes very long time to open (I think 30 minutes).
Profiler does not show that it's running a query, but messages like this keep appearing throughout the time it's opening to browse:
Progress Report Begin, 14- Query, Started reading data from the 'p0' partition. Progress Report End, 14- Query, Finished reading data from the 'p0' partition. Progress Report Begin, 14- Query, Started reading data from the 'p10' partition. Progress Report End, 14- Query, Finished reading data from the 'p10' partition.

This is the error i am getting when i was going through the asp .net quickstart tutorials to learn using the databases. I have installed sql server 2005 on windows xp along with asp .net framework 2.0 on my system. i am student, so i dont how to configure a database. i went through a lot of tutorials of microsoft and macromedia but was unable to get the information requirred to create and access the database on asp .net and sql servers. they assumed that all know how to configure the database to work with the dynamic pages.

this was another line from the error page.i need help in configuring the sql (and asp .net) server to use the database. i have been getting a lot these error pages when i tried to open (local)database related pages on my system.
i am very much thankful to any help given in this regard.
My connection string (to a remote instance of SQL Server Exress 2005) is exactly the same when the web files are located on my local machine or my remote machine, and while it works fine when I use the local web files, I get the following error when I use the remote files:
"Named Pipes Provider: Could not open a connection to SQL Server [53]"
As you can see, since it works from the local version, I've setup SQL to accept remote connections via TCP/IP and Named Pipes. I'm using IIS7 on the local, and IIS6 on the remote, in case that makes a difference. I have other sites setup the same way, which work fine.
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
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.
We have a 64-bit VM server running SQL Server 2005. The SQL Server on this particular VM server has 6 local instances installed. On the Management Studio logon screen I can type the full name of the local instance and connect to it, however if I press the drop down in the Server name field, choose Browse and select the Local Servers tab there is nothing listed under Database Engines.
Any idea why the 6 local instances don't show up under Database Engines? This is preventing me from installing a vendor application because their installer looks for local SQL Server instances on this server, but if SQL Server won't even show the local instances then the installer doesn't see them either.
I get the below error only when my IDE open. It connects well when it is found closed. [SqlException (0x80131904): Cannot open user default database. Login failed.Login failed for user 'JPASPNET'.] I could solve this by giving the logged in windows user to impersonate under IIS window > WEBSITE > ASP.NET tab > EDIT CONFIG > APPLICATION tab But I wish someone could give me the proper solution. I almost tried all from giving ASPNET user as a administrator to configuring the same in Express management tool. Environment: XP pro, VWD and SQL Express
I got an approach like that: 1) Read something from DB - check the value, if true stop if false go on2) Read the second Value (another SQL Statement) - check the value etc. Now I could open the connection at 1) and if I have to go to 2) I leave the connection open and use the same connection at 2). Is it ok to do that? The other scenario would be opening a connection at 1), immediately close it after I read the value and open a new connection at 2). Thanks for the input!
Post installation of SQL Server 2014 Express edition, I am able to connect to the Database Instance.
But while opening a new query window in SSMS or opening a table getting the error:

I am facing a problem in connecting to the local database with server name as (local).
I have installed SQL Server 2005 in my machine. When I try to connect to the SQL server with the server name as SUNILKUMAR I am able to connect but when I try to connect to the same server with the server name as (local) I am not able to connect. SUNILKUMAR is my machine name and SQL server is running locally.
if anyone can help me what is the problem in this case it is highly appriciated.
My goal is to develop the system on a windows application and pda
There is a central server which will create a publication called inventory
The laptops which host the windows application will be subscribers to the central server using merge replication
The client now wants the PDA using SQL Mobile to synchronize with the local subscirber database on the laptop using active sync. They dont want to do it via WIFI to the IIS Server at the central server
I have been reading for days and I am still unsure whether this is possible to do.
I know Appforge provide a conduit for palm to access synchronization but not local sql databases
Being a very novice SQL Server administrator, I need to ask the experts a question.
How do I go about moving a database from 1 drive to another? The source drive (C is local to the server, but the target drive (E is on a Storage Area Network (SAN), although it is still a local drive for the server. I want to move the database from C: to E:. Can someone provide me with instructions?
This is my first time to deploy an asp.net2 web site. Everything is working fine on my local computer but when i published the web site on a remote computer i get the error "Failed to generate a user instance of SQL Server due to failure in retrieving the user's local application data path. Please make sure the user has a local user profile on the computer. The connection will be closed" (only in pages that try to access the database) Help pleaseee
Just a quick question about connection management. My application willnever need more than 1 or 2 connections about at any given time. Also, I donot expect many users to be connected at any given time. For efficiency, Iwould like to keep connections alive throughout the lifetime of the objectsrequiring them, rather than opening a new connection, executing code andthen closing it again. What is the most efficient way of doing this?Should I perform the open/close or just one open when I create the objectand a close when I dispose of it?
I have an archieve cube as .cab file and i have restored my cube into analysis server , but i am not able to browse the datain the cube. My doubt is- Does the cube contains data with it to browse or not? or we have to explicitly enter data at the sql query analyser.
Just started researching Analysis Services product, and am playing w/ foodmart db (located on my C: drive) and creating cubes and dimensions, etc.
My problem is that I cannot browse any dimensions once they are created. For exampe, for a dimension called product I am getting an error message, "Unable to browse the dimension 'product'. Unspecified error"
1.Create a table. The table must contain four columns of your choice and at least ten rows. Create a meaningful example of your own. The last column in the table must be a quantity. Provide output showing your CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements. Also include output showing their successful execution.
2.Create a ROLL-UP query using the table you created in problem #1 Provide output showing your SELECT statements and the resulting output rows. Next use the TRANSCT SQL help function of SQL Server and write definitions of the following SQL statements: a.IS NULL- b.GROUPING- c.AS-
3.Create a CUBE query using the table you created in problem #1 Provide output showing your SELECT statements and the resulting output rows.
4.Create the following CUBE queries using the table you created in problem #1. Provide output showing your SELECT statements and the resulting output rows. a.A CUBE query with Grouping used to distinguish Null values. b.A CUBE query showing a multidimensional cube. c.A CUBE query created using a view. For this problem you must not only create your view but query it and display the results.
5.Create one example of a query using COMPUTE and one example of a query using COMPUTE BY. These queries should use the table you created in problem #1 Provide output showing your SELECT statements and the resulting output rows.
I have just started working the 2047 OLAP and came arcross the Analysis Service Limits. It states that the levels in a cube has a limit of 256 and the leves per dimension is 64. I am confused.
What is the definition of (levels in a cube)! and how are the levels in a cube different from (levels per dimension)
I am trying to build a cube to monitor the sales performance. My measure is the sale amount. My dimensions include 1) Time 2) Sale hierarchy (salesman, sales office, region), and 3) Product Line. The problem I have is that when the salesman move from one office to another, the sales occured before this movement should continue to be credited to the old office. Only sales happen after the movement should be credited to the new office. How should I implement the cube to achieve this effectively? We have more that 40,000 sales, about 500 offices, in the company to monitor. So I don't think keeping a copy of the sales hierarchy whenever there is a change is feasible.
I have installed SQL Server 2005 on a server which runs Windows Server 2003 with SP2. And I have two client machines, both running Windows XP with SP2. Machine A has a full version of SQL server 2005 installed, including database engine, analysis service server, reporting service server. Machine B only has workstation components installed, BI development studio, SQL Server management studio.
I have developed a couple of analysis service projects and deployed to the server. On machine A, I can connect to the server and browse cubes no problem. On manchine B, I still can connect to the server and see the projects I deployed, even browse dimensions data. But when I browse cubes, management studio will be hanging there, not doing anything. Eventually I will have to kill it. I also opened the projects on machine B from BI management studio and try to browse data from there, it shows 'loading data' and doesn't do anything either.
Does anyone experience this type of issue? It's really frustrating as it doesn't show me any error message.
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?????????
