When processing my very large cube, after 6 hours, the service dies and the ASCMD returns an error saying it can't find the server / service. The rest of the server is fine and I just have to restart the Service. But the ASCMD keeps killing the service. Can anyone offer some ideas of when I should be looking?
Windows Server 2003 SP1

Many thanks in advance,
Richard.
Is there a way to determine when the SSAS Service last restarted? preferably a [mdx] query like you can do with the DB engine using a T-SQL query but any method that does not going to the servers OS and checking would be fine.

Hi everybody.
I'm looking to upgrade to SQL Server 2005 (Standard Edition). I'm interested in using SSIS, SSRS and SSAS. I hear that BIDS runs inside of Visual Studio 2005, and comes with the SQL 2005 software. I currently have VS 2003. My question is: Do I need to purchase anything besides SQL Server 2005 Standard, or do I need to buy anything separately, like VS 2005? (if so, which version would you recommend?)
Thank you very much!

I have log shipping setup at a client site (it is their network). Log shipping runs fine until midnight, and then stops processing files. What I notice on the primary server (where the files are backed up to), all the files after midnight are set to A attribute, none of the files before midnight have this. The short of it it does not process these files and log shipping dies and has to be rebuilt. Any network admins have any ideas (I did have them stop backing up these files with their backup software) still dies
View 3 Replies View RelatedHello all.I have quite disturbing situation where I am not happy about the way how SQLhandles the query. Situation is related to using user function in INNER JOINselect. Although the problem occured in more complex situation the query canbe simplified to following example with same results:There is an user function, that can be as simple as:FUNCTION IsItSo (@text1 nvarchar(255), @text2 nvarchar(255))RETURNS integerBEGINif isnull(@text1,'')=isnull(@text2,'')return 1elsereturn 0return 0ENDIt can be any function returning integer, this is just for example.Then there is a query as simple as that:SELECT person, formula FROM(SELECTa.person, v.code AS formulaFROM rows1 AS aINNER JOIN rows2 AS v ON a.type=v.typeAND dbo.IsItSo(a.type,v.type)=1)as formulastables rows1 and rows2 can contain as little as two columns for thisexample - rows1 have [person] and [type], rows2 [code] and [type]. Allcolumns are of nvarchar type.So the AND clause after INNER JOIN is an obvious mistake. That is not theproblem, problem is how SQL reacts. On SQL 2000 SP4 the result for runningthe query is following error:Server: Msg 913, Level 16, State 8, Line 1Could not find database ID 101. Database may not be activated yet or may bein transition.On SQL 2000 SP3 the result is even more dramatic - SQL service will consume100% of all available processors and become unresponsive. Only solution isto restart either SQL service or the server.My question is if this self-destructive behavior of SQL server can beprevented by some configuration parameters or patches. I am a bit annoyed bythe fact that developer can kill the server by little bit of poorprogramming that is syntactically acceptable for server.One more curious bit - the section of the query located between parenthesiscan be run separately without any ill effects and get actual meaningfulresults:SELECTa.person, v.code AS formulaFROM rows1 AS aINNER JOIN rows2 v ON a.type=v.typeAND dbo.IsItSo(a.type,v.type)=1
View 3 Replies View RelatedHello all,
I'm trying to install "SQL Server 2005 Express Edition SP2".
I downloaded "SQLEXPR32.EXE" (38,220,656 bytes) from the Microsoft site.
At the beginning of the setup the installation program scans my system -- no problems or warnings. Everything looks fine.
During installation I uncheck, "Hide advanced configuration options" simply because I want to change the default instance name. I make no other changes to the default installation.
The installation starts up but when it tries to install the "SQL Native Client" I get the following error dialog message:
"An installation package for the product Microsoft SQL Server Native Client cannot be found. Try the installation again using a valid copy of the installation package 'sqlncli.msi'."
That's an odd message to receive since I am *not* even trying to install the SQL Native Client.
Does anyone have an idea of what might be causing this to happen. I've install SSE many times in the past with no problems.
Thanks
I have written a package that archives off old orders over night, it appears that this package is failing after about 10000 second every time it is run. I don't think it is memory as I am running it and checking for memory leaks.
Basic run down of package is
EXEcute SQL task to get orders to delete
If a for loop, loop each ordernumber
within the for loop there are 2 dataflow
dataflow 1
find related records in child tables (oldb connection using query)
using a mutli split first
check (with lookup) for records already in archive database
only copy on a fail from the look up
second
delete related records
dataflow 2
do the same but for the parent table
SP1 CTP is installed on server.
Any ideas?

Hi, I'm building a SSAS Integration project, it consist of extracting data from a Microsoft Access 2003 database and consolidate data into a SQL Server 2005 database for datawarehousing.
I need to make several operations for integration, but i'm struck in the following:
- I added an Ole DB Origin that connects to my access database
- I made an sql query with multiple joins that extract all data i need for first instance.
- in data i extracted, i got one column named: FECHA (and many other colums), it contains data of the date of the actual sale; but in previous steps i fill a table named DimTiempo from my sql server database that contanins all the dates (with no repeating) of the sales and added an unique primary key for them; so, now i need to get that primary key for each column FECHA i gotted in my sql query in OLEDB ORIGIN, for example:
I have: 20/20/2004 (column FECHA on my OLEDB ORIGIN gotted with an sql query with multiple joins)
I need: 001 (extracted from DimTiempo, its the primary key of the registry 001 - 20/20/2004)
I need that code or primary key to insert into my new table on my sql server database because its related directly with my DimTiempo table filled previously.
For more directions, i don't have that primary key column on the original access data base; i reestructure completely the database on sql server to make the datawarehouse work fine.
Please, i hope you help me, tell me what do i need to do to get all the data to fill my sql server 2005 database.
Thanks.
Hi guys,
This is my first post. Could anyone help me out? I am trying to refresh a cube that i created by using a new script command but i get the following error "the script contains the statement, which is not allowed." On the microsoft page i've read that for refreshing you need to create a new script. Is there another way for refreshing the cube?
Cheers
Hi all,
I'm sure what I am trying to do is very simple - but I just can't seem to figure it out. I have a report based on a SSAS cube (SQL 2005). The report shows sales based on the dates the user selects from the parameter field (the date parameter field comes from a Y-Q-M-D hierarchy). This all works fine.
What I would like to happen is for the members within the last 3 months to be automatically selected so that the report automatically executes for the last 3 months.
Can anyone help or offer any advice. If possible I would like to achieve this using the GUI features so that power users can use the "plug and pray interface".
Many thanks
Matt
I am very keen to go into the BI area with SQL 2005, somebody suggested me to go more specialized in SSIS and SSAS. I heard there is a certified programme in BI track which was just launched last year by Microsoft, but I couldn't find the info anymore, could anybody here help providing some information for me to get started?
I do not have any MCSE yet. Is there a need to get some basic MCSE before jumping into the BI track?
Thanks a lot!
Is it possible to import an SAS PMML 2.1 compliant neural network model directly into SSAS 2005?
Are there other or all SSAS models (e.g. Decision Trees) that can be created from an imported SAS PMML 2.1 compliant source?
Hi,
I have a question here for report model generated on top of SSAS 2005. If security has been defined in SSAS 2005 cube where RoleA only have access to certain dimension, is this security setting integrated with the report model and propogate down to the report builder when used where RoleA users have no access to dimension allowed?
Thanks,

I would like to know best practices for setting up my environment. To date, I've had everything running on a single server. That would include the database engine, SSIS, SSAS and SSRS. The box configuration is dual hyperthreaded 3.6GHz Xenon with 4GB of RAM on Windows Server 2003. I just received a much larger server and want to configure it to maximize our environment. The new box contains four 2.6GHz Quad Core processors with 16GB of RAM. I would like to know if I should split the ETL and database engine from SSAS and SSRS, or should this box have enough horse power to house it all and use my other box as a dev environment. Also, we are planning to purchase Performance Point 2007 primarily for PAS and Scorecard Manager so please take that into consideration as well. Any comments are greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
Has anyone managed to crack getting multi-select parameters to work from an SSRS 2005 report which is querying an SSAS 2000 cube.
SSRS 2005 does support Multiselect, however SSRS 2000 did not. Given that i am querying an SSAS 2000 cube, i get the impression that i am also limited to SSRS 2000 functionality regarding to multi-select parameters.
Is there anyone out there that ever managed to get a wor around, say by using filters on a table or anything really that coud simulate the same behaviour....
I€™m having a problem with Excel 2007 DM and SQL 2005 and I hope someone out there has a solution.
Consider the following environment:
Windows XP SP2 or Windows Vista, Excel 2007, Data Mining Add-in, SSAS 2005 (with session mining models enabled, an AdventureWorksDW cube deployed and drill-through actions available).
Now take the following steps:
1. In Excel 2007 set up a connection to SSAS
2. Connect to the cube and create a new pivot table report (drag and drop whatever you like)
3. Right-click on one of the cell values in the data region and either select a drill-through action, or, select Show Details in the context menu
4. Ensure that you have at least 10 detailed records that are generated on a new worksheet page; you should have a time-based column in your detailed records
5. Select the table of detailed data, then select the Analyze tab (within the Table Tools grouping) which appears in the topmost menu above the ribbon
6. Click the Forecast button in the ribbon and choose both the field which you want to predict as well as the time-based column (from step 4) as well as the number of time periods to forecast
7. Finally click OK.
1. Having followed these steps on both WinXP SP2 and Vista, I keep coming across the exception: HResult:0x800A03EC. Any ideas as to why this exception pops up? If I was using a normal table of data (which was not generated from a Show Details or drill-through action), then the Forecast button works fine.
I googled it and thought the localization settings for SSAS 2005 and Excel 2007 needed to be the same (initially they weren€™t). I€™ve tried removing the auto-filters which appear atop each column in the detailed data table prior to clicking the Forecast button, and, I€™ve also tested for a series of data across a number of time periods with the same result.
Also, a colleague of mine discovered that the column headers that appear by default from a drill-through start with "$[", and, in removing them the Forecast function appears to work.
I would have thought there would be a seamless transition in Excel 2007 between data retrieved from a cube and the DM Add-in featueres (or at the very least, a more meaningful exception message than the one presented).
Is there something I€™ve missed, or, is there a KB article I haven€™t come across yet? As I know for a fact that the problem is reproducible, is there a fix to this problem on its way to us? Is there a useful workaround that doesn't require manual intervention?
Thanks,
A.
Good day community. I have a question about SQL Server 2005 Anywhere edition which i currently installed on my desktop. Does it fit my needs which stated on the subject? If no, what should i select for my projects?
Hi,
I understand from previous threads that installing SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 2 on the desktop client can speed up the response rate of the Visual Studio 2005 Business Intelligence Tools.
However after logging on as an administrator and installing Service Pack 2, Service Pack 2 returned no errors. However after launching Visual Studio and clicking on the about dialog box the version reported was still €œRTM.050727-4200€? where I was expecting to see €œSP.050727-7600€?.
I understood that I applied the same service pack to my copy of SQL Server on my laptop and the upgrade worked successfully.
Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance,
Kieran.

Hi,
for some reason, when I've installed visual studio 2005, I didn't install also SQL server.
Than I've updated VS with Service Pack 1 (thank god, I was trying unsucesfully for about 2 weeks :/ ).
Than I want to install MSSQL 2005 and an error came up:
Message displayed to user
SQL Server 2005 Setup has detected incompatible components from beta versions of Visual Studio, .NET Framework, or SQL Server 2005. Use Add or Remove Programs to remove these components, and then run SQL Server 2005 Setup again. For detailed instructions on uninstalling SQL Server 2005, see the SQL Server 2005 Readme.
SQL Server Setup has detected that the following required component is not installed: Microsoft Windows Installer 3.1. To proceed, download and install the Windows Installer 3.1 Redistributable from http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=50380 , and then run SQL Server Setup again.
1. The http link leads to main page of MS Download Centre.
2. I have Installer 3.1. (version of file c:windowssystem32msiexec.exe said so)
3. I really do not have any beta version of any mentioned SW. I never had.
So I think the issue could be, that installer is checking for not updated version of Visual Studio.
(I was searching through net/msdn and seems no one had this problem (maybe wrong keywords, though) ).
I'm running setup.exe from CD1.
Uninstalling of VS Service Pack 1 is not an option. I really don't want to spent another week by installing it.
Please tell that there is some another way :) .
Thanks a lot.

We would like to install Sql 2005 Enterprise Edition (including database engine, reporting service, integration service and analysis service) as a sepearte instance on a server which already has Sql 2000 with reporting services and analysis services. We do not want to disturb the existing sql 2000 setup.
If we do that then what will happen to my earlier sql 2000 reporting service? Will it be upgraded to sql 2005 reporting service? I heard that reporting services are instance unaware application. Where will be the default reporting service database available?
Please help us.

Any ideas?

I downloaded the sp2a from MS website.
However after running the SP it shows version 9.00.3042.00
When I applied the KB933508 it brings up the version as
9.00.3050.00
Is there a problem.
Per this site, some time ago, the version we need to be on ideally, is 9.00.3042.01
In which case which patch do I need to download and apply?
