Unable to create dataset against OLAP Cube from different server

Hi guys,
If I load Microsoft SQL Report Builder on the BI Server, I am able to create a dataset against the OLAP Cube I created on the BI Server, however if I try to run the Report Builder from a different server I get the following error:
"Unable to connect to data source 'MyOLAPCube'.
A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond 172.20.112.82:2382
A connection cannot be made to redirector. Ensure that 'SQL Browser' service is running."
I have had no issues starting the SQL Browser service, however if I try to run it in console mode, I get the following error:
'SQLBrowser: Warning: failed starting OLAP redirection services with error 1.'
I have checked online and seen a few similar issues online however I haven't been able to resolve my issue with their resolution.
Any help is appreciated.
Many thanks
Richard

Yeah there is a firewall running on both servers, however I had opened port 2383 and was still unable to make a connection. It is using a named instance on the server (servername/instancename) and it is configured to use port 0, so I therefore assume
it should be using port 2383 by default? Or as it's a named instance, is the default port 2382? Maybe it would be better to configure it to use a specific port and open the port on the firewall?
Hi Rfla,
As you can see on the link below
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms174937(v=sql.110).aspx
Named instances use dynamic port assignments. As the discovery service for Analysis Services, SQL Server Browser service listens on TCP port 2382 and redirects the connection request to the port currently used by Analysis Services.
So you can open the port 2382 for Named Analysis Services Instance remote connect.

OLAP cubes from heterogeneous data sources using XML DB

hi.
Q:1
How we can create an OLAP cube (XML cubes) from XML data sources if using XML DB.
Q:2
How we can create an OLAP cubes from warehouses and flat files and covert these cubes into XML cubes.
Q:3
Is there any other tool (Except Analytical workspace manager AWM) which supports the construction of OLAP cubes in XML format from heterogeneous data sources?
Edited by: user11236392 on Aug 21, 2009 3:50 AM

Hi Stuart!
Your undersatnding is partially correct. i am working for providing an architecture for XOLAP, XML is one of my data source.
The idea is to generate uniform cubes from heterogeneous sources that can be integrated into a global cube. instead of building Oracle OLAP cubes from all the sources (this work is already done) i want to generate an XCube from XML data sources using XQuery.
On the other hand if we have generated the Oracle OLAP cube from other sources like warehouses or flat files. i have to convert these Oracle OLAP cube into XML cube for uniformity. in an research paper i find that there is an operator Xcube embedded in XQuery which converts the multidimensional data (cube) into XML cube. im looking for the implementation of this operator in Query that how this operator works.
hope u understand my architecture. but if u still have some confusion, kindly give me ur mail id. i will mail the diagram of my architecture.
thanks.

I am unable to create an Action to Export from .ai to .psd. The OPEN and EXPORT steps in the Action

I am unable to create an Action to Export from .ai to .psd.
The steps in the Action such as Open and Export seem inextricably linked to the file from which the original Action was recorded.
The steps in the Action do not seem to be generalized commands that I can apply to any folder of .ai files.

I'd recommend to exactly describe what you're doing. How did you set up your action? Which settings did you choose in the Batch Process dialog? What exactly went wrong? What did you expect instead?
Whatever issues you're suffering from, there is no way to provide a hasty answer and no way to give an elaborate answer without knowing the details.

Read XML file from different server on JSP

Dear All,
I am a newbie to JSP with XML, now i want to read the "test.xml" from JSP.
I read successfully this "test.xml" file from my system and I got output, but I need to read the xml file from
different server like "http://www.domain.com/test.xml". I couldn't read such a type of file from different server.
Is it possible to read a xml file from different server?
If anybody have idea please let me know.
Thanks in Advance,

What permission is needed for a login to access the restored database(backup from different server)

what permission is needed for a login to access the restored database(backup from different server)
frequently reach the situation, when vendor restores a database, but he cannot access it unless I remap or add his login to the restored database. What permssion can grant the vendor so that he can but only can access the database he restored, not all other
databases.

Hi George,
According to your description, When you move a database from one server that is running SQL Server to another server that is running SQL Server, a mismatch may occur between the security identification numbers (SIDs) of the logins in the master database
and the users in the user database. As other post, you can use the sp_change_users_login stored procedure to map SQL Server logins. Also , you can use the following statement after doing the restore database. It will
fix the mis-mapped SID inside the restored DB.
ALTER USER <username> WITH LOGIN = <username>
For more information, you can review the following article.

Webi against OLAP Cubes and rowlevel security

Hi all
Running XI3.1, SP4. Windows
We are trying to create universes on top of OLAP cubes made in MSAS 2008, and take advantage of the rowlevel-structure that exist on the cube side.
When running a WEBI-report against the cubeuniverse, the current user logged in from InfoView should be passed to the MSAS cube. Different users will then get different results. This is our goal!!!
It works in Voyager, which runs directly at the cubes.
But is this possible, via WEBI and universes. Has anyone done this??
When creating the connection, the Authentication mode="Use SSO when refreshing the reports at runtime", looks promising.
But i get a error message, stating "DBD: Unknown error has occured when determining the ODBO connection credentials"
All inputs are appreciated
/Björn

Hi all
We have configured the BOservers with SSO, using AD-Kerberos (using Tim Ziembas whitepapers). So we are using authentication=WindowsAD.
It works perfectly for the end-users. They hit the INFOVIEW-url and they dont need no password.
The thing that we want to acheive, is to connect to MSAnalysisServer2008, with Designer. I want to create a universe on top of MSAS OLAP-cubes, and take advantage of the rowlevel-security that has been implemented in the CUBE-server.
When creating a connection in Designer using MSAS2008 OLEDB for OLAP Provider, there is the Authentication mode-dropdown. The second alternative "Use single-sign-on when refreshing..." gives the error-message "DBD: Unknown error has occured when determining the ODBO connection credentials".
I dont know if this is a bug, or if when using middleware MSAS2008 OLEDB for OLAP Provider in combination with Authentication mode="Use single-sign-on when refreshing.." it isnt supposed to work. From the Designer documentation it should work.
We have tested this for Voyager, which connects directly to the cubes. It works in Voyager. the connection "feeds" the cubesystem with the user currently logged on to InfoView, and gives the correct rowlevel-restriction.
We want to acheive the same thing with Webintelligence.

Björn

Unable to Create Fact and Dimension tables from the Tools menu in EIS conso

Problem with connection to one OLAP cube from Excel

I have OLAP database that have several cubes. I can not open one of them in Excel 2010.
I can make connection but when I import data to pivot table, clik ok, then nothing happens - the same screen appears with data import.
I can browse this cube in Management Studio
Do you know how to solve this? Any ideas?

Hi Dawidsk99,
According to your description, you can connect to cube success, the issue is that nothing happens when clicking OK to import data to pivot table, right?
I have tested it on my local environment, we cannot reproduce this issue. So in you scenario, please ensure that not select "Only Create Connection" option In the Import Data dialog box, under Select how you want to view this data in your workbook.
Besides, you can analyze SSAS using Excel directly from SSMS. In SSMS, browse the cube, and click on the Excel button as shown below.

Hello All,
When I try to create a new dispute case from UDM_DISPUTE, I get the following error.
Duplication in attribute display: Attribute

Can any one tell me what is the reason for the above error and how I can create a new test case using UDM_DISPUTE.
Thanks

Check your attribute configuration in FSCM - Dispute Mgmt - Dispute Case Processing - Attribute Profile - Create Attribute Profile. Select the attribute profile that is assigned to your Case Type and select Assign Attributes. Look to see if the attribute FIN_RFC_CREATOR is listed twice.

Is the SQL Server and Analysis Server are running on different servers and not on default ports?
If yes, then check if the same alias’s name added in Project Server is added on the Analysis Server.

Create Powershell Mailbox Exchange 2010 from remote server slow

I create AD Users and Mailboxes from servers via PowerShell script from a remote machine.
It worked fine and all of a sudden it takes anywhere between 10 and 20 minutes for the mailbox to create.
I logged into the remote powershell script machine, opened PowerShell ISE and tested with the following scripts, with –Verbose, and this was the result:
Add-PSSnapin -Name Microsoft.Exchange.Management.PowerShell.E2010
Enable-Mailbox -Identity 'DOMAIN/OU/OU/testcreateUser' -Alias 'testcreateUser' -Database 'Database1'-Verbose
Everything runs fine up to this point, and hangs for 10 minutes:
VERBOSE: [09:07:34.120 GMT] Enable-Mailbox : [Microsoft Cmdlet Extension Agent] Read Email Address Policy for organization "" from domain controller xxx.
VERBOSE: [09:07:34.151 GMT] Enable-Mailbox : [Microsoft Cmdlet Extension Agent] Found Email Address Policy "Default Policy".
VERBOSE: [09:16:12.543 GMT] Enable-Mailbox : [Microsoft Cmdlet Extension Agent] Add Primary Email Address X400:C=xxxxx
Any idea why it hangs at the Default Policy?

Check if there are any non-SMTP email addresses listed in the Email Address Policy. If there is, then it might be trying to find a server that has that proxyagent.dll file that is associated with the address extension. This is common when there
are different versions of Exchange installed in the environment.
Also, use the -domaincontroller switch with your enable-mailbox cmd and point to a DC local to the Exchange server that you are connecting to.

Unable to Connect to SQL 2000 Instance from Windows Server 2012 environment

We have a windows server (TEST) 2012 environment , where our test SQL Server 2012 instance is hosted.
We have a different (DEV) Server (windows 2000) where a SQL Server 2000 instance is present.
When I RDP to our Windows Server 2012 box, I cannot connect to the SQL 2000 server instance from SQL Management Studio. (whereas I can connect to
the same server from my local machine which has windows 7 and SQL 2012 installed).
This is the error i see -
"A transport-level error has occurred when receiving results from the server. (provider: TCP Provider, error: 0 - The specified network name
is no longer available.) (.Net SqlClient Data Provider)"
When run from SQL Agent Service from TEST (A Job which tries to connect to that SQL 2000 instance to read some data using SSIS) , we get the following
error -
An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server" Hresult: 0x80004005 Description: "[DBNETLIB][ConnectionRead
(recv()).]General network error. Check your network documentation.".
The same SSIS package runs successfully from my local machine.
Please, could someone advice how to resolve this situation?

Thanks Olaf.
Its just that we have legacy systems here in our company, who, for some reason haven't upgraded their older infrastructure, whereas they have set up new Windows 2012/SQL 2012 environments for the newer sql instances where they want to transition to !
Not sure what the solution is honestly. It is affecting our timelines now. The infrastructure team needs to take a decision now, as to what to do.
I do have to add, we were able to connect to these "older" servers from our Windows 7 client machines which have SQL 2012 - both from SQL management studio & SSIS (using OLE-DB Provider for SQL Server).

Same Request No from Different Server !

Dear ABAPers,
I was creating Requests for Reports, Data Elements, tables, etc on our company server Last week.
Then today we were sent more requests (from another server) to add on our server.
We found that Their request included some data elements that I created !
then we understood that their request number was exactly the same as Ours !!!
How can we make sure Requests Numbers don't Overlap ??

Hi,
Every transport starts with system name and to hit on such situation you would have to have 2 systems with the same name. I'm no basis guy, but I find it rather imposible.
Since you've found your own objects are present on second system then explanation is very easy - your objects were transported to that other system.
Best regards
