Unable To Generate Model Off Of An Analysis Services Data Source
Feb 21, 2007
Hello,
Our company is doing some basic research into using analysis services as a solution for our customers. I've taken our database and built an analysis services project in BI Studio and deployed it to Analysis Services on my local machine I connect to Reporting Services in Management Studio, create a folder for the cube, give my Windows user acct. Content Manager permission, create the Data Source (conn string = "Provider=SQLNCLI.1;Data Source=(local)SQLServer2k5;Integrated Security=SSPI;Initial Catalog=STI-PDB" -- copied from the Analysis Services project in BI Studio), and go to "Generate Model". What I get is an rsModelGenerationError, sub [Create Perspective From Cubes] with a connection issue at the base:
Either the user, <computername>Thomas, does not have access to the STI-PDB Database, or the database does not exist. () (Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Analysis Services)
Now, in the Database Engine, my Windows account has the db_owner database role for STI-PDB and it's default schema is dbo, which all the objects are created under. What am I missing here?

Hi all,
Till now all the reports for our application was created in Reporting Services 2005 with SQL Server Database(OLTP) stored procedures.
Most of the reports take 10 to 15 report Parameters and all are multi valued.
Now because of the slow response time,we have decided to use OLAP cubes data source. We have created the OLAP cube in Microsoft Analysis Services.
Can someone tell me how to use the report parameters to query the Cube.
Any links,books for reference would be of great help..
Thanks,
Looking forward to your replies

Hello everybody.
I want to perform a Analysis Services Processing Task using a connection manager created from a Analysis Services data source. I create the data source using the Oledb provider for Analysis Services 9.0, and it works fine. Then I create a connection manager using the "New connection from data source" option, and it seems to create it ok.
The problem is that I can't then asign this connection to the Analysis Services processing task. I get the error:
"Connection Manager MyConectionManagerFromDataSource is not a Analysis Services Connection Manager"
However, if I create directly a connection manager using "New Analysis Services Connection" it works fine.
Is it at all possible to create a Analysis services connection from a Data Source to perform a Analysis Services Processing Task?
Thanks in advance,

We have been a Crystal shop for ages; we are currently doing a proof-of-concept for a conversion to MS Reporting Services. As such, we are developing some Analysis Services 2005 cubes to drive some new SSRS reports, which our users will access through Report Manager. Unfortunately, we are all MDX noobs here, so we are making heavy use of the Wizards until we can come up to speed.
The problem we are running into is when we develop a report with Date Parameters. When we deploy this report, the date parameter box is a dropdown box instead of a date picker. I've seen a couple of other posts on this topic, but when I try to apply the fixes mentioned in them, I throw errors.
I have two quick questions:
Why does this happen? Is it a limitation in the MDX language, in SSAS, or SSRS? Are there any planned fixes?
Can someone please show me how to fix this on my actual query string for one of our basic reports? I've highlighted the date parameters.
Code Snippet
SELECT NON EMPTY { [Measures].[Lead] } ON COLUMNS, NON EMPTY { ([Store].[Store ID].[Store ID].ALLMEMBERS ) } DIMENSION PROPERTIES MEMBER_CAPTION, MEMBER_UNIQUE_NAME ON ROWS FROM ( SELECT ( STRTOSET(@LeadSourceTypeLeadSourceType, CONSTRAINED) ) ON COLUMNS FROM ( SELECT ( STRTOSET(@StoreStoreID, CONSTRAINED) ) ON COLUMNS FROM ( SELECT ( STRTOMEMBER(@FromLeadCreationDateCalendarDate, CONSTRAINED) : STRTOMEMBER(@ToLeadCreationDateCalendarDate, CONSTRAINED) ) ON COLUMNS FROM [Referral Leads]))) WHERE ( IIF( STRTOSET(@LeadSourceTypeLeadSourceType, CONSTRAINED).Count = 1, STRTOSET(@LeadSourceTypeLeadSourceType, CONSTRAINED), [Lead Source Type].[Lead Source Type].currentmember ) ) CELL PROPERTIES VALUE, BACK_COLOR, FORE_COLOR, FORMATTED_VALUE, FORMAT_STRING, FONT_NAME, FONT_SIZE, FONT_FLAGS
I'm afraid, given my user community, that if I can't get the date picker to work properly, it could be a deal breaker.
Thanks very much in advance for your help.
Regards,
Steve

hi,
I try to generate ad hoc reporting model for analysis services cube in reporting services.
in Management Studio I connected to reporting services, defined a data source to the analysis services database.
But If i try to generate model i get the error:
"While connection with a data source a mistake has appeared, or the query is invalid for the data source. (rsCannotPrepareQuery)(Report Services SOAP Proxy Source)"
Any ideas as to what may be the problem?
Thanks!

I've question about how to handle structural datamodel changes in a datasource of PowerPivot. Suppose I'm developing a starmodel in SQL Server and sometimes a datatype changes or a name of a field changes in a table. It seems to me that PowerPivot handle this not gracefully as Analysis MD does (mostly). I received an error because of a wrong fieldname or even no error when a dattype changes in PowerPivot. Is this common or do I something wrong here. Does this mean that every time the datamodel changes the PowerPivot should be recreated? Or am I missing the clue here?

When I attempt to generate a datasource model I get the following error messages:
------------------------------------------------
More than one item in the Entity 'Customer' has the
name 'Customer Merge Custs'. Item names must be unique
among immediate siblings. (DuplicateItemName)
More than one Field in the Entity 'Customer' has the
name 'Customer Merge Custs'. Field names must be
unique within an Entity. (DuplicateFieldName)
More than one item in the Entity 'Pricing Service Layout
Detail' has the name 'Pricing Service
Extensions'. Item names must be unique among immediate
siblings. (DuplicateItemName)
More than one Field in the Entity 'Pricing Service Layout
Detail' has the name 'Pricing Service
Extensions'. Field names must be unique within an Entity.
(DuplicateFieldName)
---------------------------------------------------
Examining any of the above tables in SQL Server Management Studio does not reveal any duplicate column names. In fact, 'Customer_Merge_Custs' does not appear to be a column in 'Customer' nor does 'Pricing_Service_Extensions' appear in 'Pricing_Service_Layout_Detail'.
As an experiment, deleting the table 'Pricing_Service_Extensions' and regenerating did make the two associated messages go away.

Hi,
I've used the Dec CTP of SQL 2005 SP2 to create a Report Server Project.
In this project, I can create an XML datasource and successfully use that datasource in a report published on Sharepoint using the new Sharepoint AddIn.
I've also used Dec CTP of SQL 2005 SP2 to create a Report Model Project.
In this project I can create SQL Data Sources, DataSource Views andReport Models which I deploy to sharepoint and create a report builder based report from.
What I can't do is create an XML based datasource in a Report Model Project. Also, if I create one solution containing both types of project, the Report Model Project Data Source Wizard suggests I can create a data source based on an existing data source in my solution. What I find is that my XML data source from the Report Server Project is not listed. In fact even if I create a SQL data source in the Report Server Project that isn't available either.
Please let me know what should work now/RTM.
Thanks
Martin

We've built an oltp that uses nothing but synonyms that reach out to various DB's in the organization thru linked servers.
The issue that we are having is Data Source Views can only see tables and views. Is it possible to use synonyms? If not what would be a work around.
Please advise. Thanks

I've been doing research on the web trying to find if it's possible to create a Report Model that is based on a Data Source that is NOT SQL Server and NOT SSAS.
Specifically I'd like to be able to build a Report Model on a Web Server (or multiple web services).
Does anyone have any information relating to this? Based on my research it looks like there's a few interfaces that need to be implemented (such as ISemanticModelGenerator, etc.).
I did find a post relating to using ODBC data sources for a Report Model and the recommended solution was Linked Tables in SQL Server or UDM in SSAS. Both cases don't look feasible for a Web Service-based Data Source.
Thanks,

I have an Excel 2013 file with lots of DAX connected to an Azure database. I'd like to reuse all that work by changing the data source for the PowerPivot model to a different database which is an exact copy (just empty) on the same server, but Excel won't let me. In PowerPivot I can change the database connection, the user ID and password as well as the connections name. When opening each table properties (inside PowerPivot model) the new connection is used and all old data is removed, but as soon as I refresh using Existing connections, both from PowerPivot or from the Excel Data tab, the old connection is used and old data is reloaded.
If I use Existing connections from inside PowerPivot, I can se that the new connection is highlighted and has the correct variable, but I think maybe that one is run first, then the old one is run afterwards (or something like that).
On the Excel Data tab, I can see that the old connection is the only one Excel itself seems to know about, but I cannot change anything there as it's read-only.
There must be a way to change this. Even with copy and paste it would take me days to recreate this Excel file from scratch and it would be a serious flaw and reduction of usability for PowerPivot.

I created a data model for report builder. And since it wont let me use views, i tried to put all the tables im using in one of my already made views, to create a data source view like my sql view. But when i connect everything the same, my report model still doesnt narrow my search. I only want to see Breed information, but since i have a Breeder table,and Customer table, its showing me all customers, and not limiting it to the ones that are breeder customers.
heres the tables:
Code Snippet
FROM dbo.Tbl_Customer INNER JOIN
dbo.Tbl_Customer_Breeder ON dbo.Tbl_Customer.Customer_Code = dbo.Tbl_Customer_Breeder.Customer_Code INNER JOIN
dbo.Tbl_Customer_Detail ON dbo.Tbl_Customer.Customer_Code = dbo.Tbl_Customer_Detail.Customer_Code INNER JOIN
dbo.Tbl_Customer_Category ON dbo.Tbl_Customer.Customer_Category_Id = dbo.Tbl_Customer_Category.Customer_Category_Id INNER JOIN
dbo.Tbl_Customer_Classification ON
dbo.Tbl_Customer.Customer_Classification_Id = dbo.Tbl_Customer_Classification.Customer_Classification_Id INNER JOIN
dbo.Tbl_Customer_In_Breed ON dbo.Tbl_Customer.Customer_Code = dbo.Tbl_Customer_In_Breed.Customer_Code INNER JOIN
dbo.Tbl_Breed ON dbo.Tbl_Customer_In_Breed.Breed_Id = dbo.Tbl_Breed.Breed_Id
What am i doing wrong, and are there any suggestions.

I have an SQL data source on my page and I select "Table". On the next screen I pick the fields I want to show. Then I click the "Advanced" button because I want to allow Inserts, updates and deletes. But its all greyed out abd I can't check this option. The UID in the connection string I am connecting under has the correct permissions in SQL server to do inserts, update and deletes too. Anyone know why it would be greyed out? The connectionstring property in the aspx code is dynamic but this shouldn't be the reason because I have used this before with success

I have a datasource view DSV1. It points to a datasource DS1 that is considered the "primary".
I have created a Report Model that uses DSV1 (and thus uses DS1)
I created a new datasource, DS2 that I would like to use instead of DS1. (I can't just modify DS1 because if I modify it, it will overwrite it when we go to our Production environment and break that datasource)
So, I can go into DSV1 and change all the references from DS1 to DS2.
But that's where the problem lies.
When I try to build, I get the following error:
"The Table property of the Entity "E1" refers to the Table "dbo_View", which is not in the primary data source."
Somehow, the entity is tied to the "primary" datasource. When I change it back to DS1, everything works fine. Any thoughts? What can I do?

Hi everyone!,
Our team is new to SSRS and we are trying to figure out how to refresh the data source view, autogenerate the corressponding report model and Re-Deploy the Report Model (rewrite existing Report Model) on the server on a periodoc basis or trigger the whole action whenever there is a change in the database on some specific tables.
We prefer to do this action through a Agent job ( a diff approach is also welcome).
Are there any stored procs out there?
Appreciate your time.

I have recently installed Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express. The installation seemed to go OK (Dell Optiplex I86, Win2K).
The SQL Server Management Studio Express (also installed OK) appears to connect to the database server and shows the database tree as I would expect, consisting of Databases, Security, Server Objects, Replication, and Management.
However, when I attempt to create a new data source (Control Panel->Administrative Tools->Data Sources(ODBC ->ODBC Data Source Administrator -> Add->SQL Server)

Descr: Test SQL Server
Server: (local)
(Next->)
x With Windows NT Authentication using the network login ID

1. As per my current development SQL Sever Analysis Database consists of two Cube (Cube A and Cube B). Cube A and Cube B share the same data source view (DSV1). The source for both these cubes has the same data source (DS1).
2. As per the requirement I need to create third Cube i.e. Cube C. Is it possible to create a second Data Source View (DSV2). The Source of second Data Source View (DSV2) will be the same data source(DS1).
I am thinking to create second Data Source View (DSV2) for Cube C because existing layout of the DSV1 has become complex. I wanted to know the pros and cons of creating a multiple data source view with same data source

I have deployed my SSAS project to an Analysis services database on a SQL 2014 server instance using the "Development" build configration in Visual Studio. In order to avoid users accessing the development instance of the cube, I've created an additional "Release" build configuration and deployed my project to a different database on the same server. I've also created a production copy of the data source and changed the data source configuration of the production cube to point to this one.
I've provided the same domain service account on the "Impersonation information" tab of the data source for both the development as well as the production instance of the cube. This account has also been granted identical permissions for both data sources. While everything works fine with the development database, processing the production database fails with an error message saying that it cannot connect to its respective data source.
I'm using VS Ultimate 2013.4, SSDT 12.0.50318.0.

Initially I have loaded same set of data in Model from MDS Stage table but then deleted with ImportType = 5 which removed all the data from the MDM model.
Now i want to load it back but its giving the Error Code 8 .. Before loading the same data i have changed the stage table Importtype to 2 and Importstatusid to 0.

Hi,
I am trying to set up a data flow task. The source is "SQL Command" which is
a stored procedure. The proc has a few temp tables that it outputs the final
resultset from. When I hit preview in the ole db source editor, I see the
right output. When I select the "Columns" tab on the right, the "Available
External Column List" is empty. Why don't the column names appear? What is
the work around to get the column mappings to work b/w source and
destination in this scenario.
In DTS previously, you could "fool" the package by first compiling the
stored procedure with hardcoded column names and dummy values, creating and
saving the package and finally changing the procedure back to the actual
output. As long as the columns remained the same, all would work.
Thats not working for me in SSIS.
Thanks in advance.
Asim.

Is there any alternative to remove these text qualifiers from the file. Do we have any utility that can convert these files into text qualifier free CSV file?
