Connection Error

  • Hi.

    1. I can connect to OLap Server.

    2. I can connect to Source Database( I see preview of Data

    When Processing Cube / Dimension I get a Data Source Provider Connection Error:

    Connection Failed for User Domain/User

    Any Ideas?

  • How are you processing the cube? In Analysis Manager or DTS or DSO etc. Are you using Windows NT security or SQL security on your source connection?

    According to everyone I know I "do something with computers?" for a living, so there you go.

  • All Done through AS Using NT Authentication

  • Try giving the account MSOLAP runs under read access to the SQL server you need to connect to.

  • Reading your mail made me go Check Some Settings, and you were spot on. My Desktop did not have Permissions on the Sorce SqL DataBase. Thanks, Pretty Dumb of me.
