When Adjusting PowerPivot Data Source it's not updating "Connection String" In Workbook
When going into an existing PowerPivot that already has a data connection to a MySQL database, I am having issues when trying to edit that data connection. Within the PowerPivot>Manage window, here is what my connection string looks like.
It successfully connects and I am able to refresh the data. My issue is, why when going to the Data>Connections>Custom>Properties>Definition area --- Why is the connection string not updating here? It's the same connection string from before
I modified it in the powerpivot manage window. I need it to be updated to my new connection string credentials. Here is window I'm talking about.
Any help is greatly appreciated!!!! Thank you!
Tim, are you still trying to get this figured out?
Thanks!

SSIS OLE DB Data Source: literal does not match format string
Dear All,
this is my first post on this forum, so sorry if I choose wrong category for this question, but I stuck...
I'm using SSIS from SQL Server 2k8 R2 in Windows Server 2k8 R2. I have installed Oracle Client 10.2.0.2 32 bits and Oracle Client 10.2.0.4 64bits. I want to connect to Oracle 8i and Oracle 9i by these clients.
Unfortunately when I want to see a preview, only error occurs to me:
ORA-01861: literal does not match format string (OraOLEDB)
I have read a lot about this issue but nothing helps me (to_date, cast, convert etc.).
This is query which I use:
SELECT COMPANYID, TRANSACTIONTYPE, TRANSACTIONDATE,
PRODUCT, PRODUCTIONSITE, BATCHNUMBER,
BINNUMBER, QUANTITYSTOCKUNIT, QUANTITY,
UNITOFMEASURE, TRANSACTIONCURRENCYID, COST
FROM APPS.DW_PRODUCTION
WHERE TRANSACTIONDATE >= '20050101'
AND TRANSACTIONDATE < '99991231'I have investigated that the problem is with TRANSACTIONDATE column (which is VARCHAR2 data type in database).
I want also inform You that the same query in SSIS 2005 on Windows 2005 64 bits worked fine.
Could You help me to find a solution?
Thanks in advance,

Change PowerPivot data source when deploying from Dev - Staging - Production
We have PowerPivot workbooks we store in SharePoint 2013 Libraries.
We have a powershell script which automates the deployment of sites and pages. Is there a way using PowerShell (or any scripting language really) to look into the workbook and change the PowerPivot data source when deployment from one environment to
another? (Dev -> Stage -> Prod) We need to update the workbooks to point to our SSAS cubes Dev -> Stage -> Prod respectively.
Thank you for any expert advice you may offer,
Sincerely,
-CraigBasically, it's an excel file (XLSX) file and you can use excel OM for this.
A simple program (in C# or any language of your choice) can be written to do the following and achieve what you need.
using XLS = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel;
string info = null;
XLS.Application application = null;
try
application = new XLS.Application();
var book = application.Workbooks.Open(filepath);
foreach (XLS.WorkbookConnection wc in book.Connections)
switch (wc.Type)
case XLS.XlConnectionType.xlConnectionTypeOLEDB:
info = wc.Name + " " + wc.OLEDBConnection.Connection.ToString() + "\r\n";
break;
book.Close();
finally
if (application != null)
application.Quit();

Crystal report for visual studio 2010 data source object is not valid error
Hello,
I receive an "data source object is not valid" error when I want to print one CR document after setting an ADODB.Recordset on SetDataSource method of my report.
On my developer station, this operation works without problem but on client station, I get this error.
The redistributable package for client is installed on client side (CRRuntime_32bit_13_0_1.msi).
Can someone help me?
Thank you.Thank's for your answers
Dim rsPkLst As ADODB.Recordset = Nothing
Dim report As New crPickingList
' Fill ADODB.Recordset with SQL Statment
If rsPkLst.RecordCount > 0 Then
report.SetDataSource(rsPkLst) ' Error : The data source object is invalid
EndIf
This error appears during "report.SetDataSource(rsPkLst)" instruction.
ADODB drivers are already installed and my ADODB.Recordset is filled with good records.
This project is an updated project from Visual Studio 2003 to Visual studio 2010 and the old version was running fine.
Developer and client station runs under Windows XP SP3.
On developer side I install CRforVS_13_0_1 (BuildVersion=13.0.1.220.Cortez_CR4VS).
On client side I install CRRuntime_32bit_13_0_1.msi.
Both stations use Microsoft .Net Framework 4.
Move to ADO.NET is a solution but, for the moment, I do not have the time to change all applications from my company.
(I get this error from all application updated from VS 2003 to VS 2010 developed since 2005)

Power view couldn't load the model or data source because the data source type is not supported
Hi,
I have SQL 2012 standard edition in my local. I have developed SSAS & deployed in local. I have been asked to develop power view report in excel 2013 using this SSAS. But when I tried to do in Excel 2013 professional Plus, I am getting below error:
Power view couldn't load the model or data source because the data source type is not supported.
Does power view is supported in standard edition of SQL or it requires Business/Enterprise edition of SQL server?
Thanks in advanceWhat type of SSAS install are you using?
PowerView in Excel 2013 currently only supports Tabular data sources.
Only PowerView in Sharepoint 2013 supports both Tabular and Multi-Dim data sources. (provided you have the required Sharepoint and SQL updates installed)

Hi All,
I have a cube in which i'm using the TIME DIM that i created in the warehouse. But now i wanted a new measure in the cube which is Average over time and when i wanted to created the new measure i got a message that no time dim was defined, so i created a
new time dimension in the SSAS using wizard. But when i tried to process the new time dimension i'm getting the follwoing error message
"Errors in the high-level relational engine. The data source view does not contain a definition for "SSASTIMEDIM" the table or view. The Source property may not have been set."
Can anyone please tell me why i cannot create a new measure average over the time using my time dimension? Also what am i doing wrong with the SSASTIMEDIM, that i'm getting the error.
ThanksHi PMunshi,
According to your description, you get the above error when processing the time dimension. Right?
In this scenario, since you have updated the DSV, it should have no problem on the table existence. One possibility is that table has been specified for tracking in the notifications for proactive caching, but isn't available any more for some
reason. Please change the setting in Proactive Caching into "MOLAP".

Data source 80BP_ID does not exists in source system
Hi All,
I have just started with standard content for SD module.
I activated my datasources 2lis_11_vaitm and 2lis_12_vcitm in my R3 system.
After replicating these data sources in my BI system i went to BI Content to activate my Info sources.
While installing info sources 2lis_11_vaitm and 2lis_12_vcitm i got errors namely
Data source 80BP_ID does not exists in source system
Datasource 80BP_REL not maintained.
Can somebody pls suggest a way out.
Thanks in advance..
Regards,
RohitHi Rohit,
When ever you try to install the SD related Standard business content then it will automatically pick up the CRM related data. the 0BP_ID, these are related to the CRM.
Please uncheck the unrelated objects while installing the STD content.
you can select the option in the grouping as ONLY NECESSARY OBJECTS.

Hi,
We are using Teradata as data source in SSAS 2008R2, it’s using ‘.Net Providers\.Net Data Provider for Teradata’.
In DSV, we have two data sources both using Teradata. While processing dimensions, all dimensions coming from secondary data source has error message”
The '' secondary data source is not a relational data source, or does not use an OLE DB provider.”
But we are not using OLE DB provider for now, we’ve searched some threads that named queries can be replaced for secondary ds, but since we have a lot of tables, it’s hard to implement using named queries.
Any inputs would be appreciated.Hi memostone,
When defining a data source view that contains tables, views, or columns from multiple data sources, the first data source from which you add objects to the data source view is designated as the primary data source (you cannot change the primary data
source after it is defined). After defining a data source view based on objects from a single data source, you can then add objects from other data sources.
If an OLAP processing or a data mining query requires data from multiple data sources in a single query, the primary data source must support remote queries using
OpenRowset. Typically, this will be a SQL Server data source.
Here are the restrictions:
The primary data source should be SQL Server and support OpenRowset to the secondary data source.
Or you design the cube in such a way that rocessing for each object only needs to access data from a single data source
I recommand you refer to the following article:
Defining a Data Source View (Analysis Services):

Trying to Change Data Source but is not highlighted
I have a pivot table running with inventory and we are doing a server upgrade so i need to change the path, but the "Change Data Source" button is not lit up and will not let me do this. Anyone know why this might be happening? Thanks!!!
Hi Frank,
We can directly update the existing connection string to connect to new server. Please take a look at the following articles:

Data source executive could not be found
Hello there, I have recentley did my first dynamic website
using coldfusion MX 7. After I uploaded all the files in the server
of godaddy.com on a window platform which supports cfm, I had
realised that all the DSN routes were still
C:cfusion7\wwwroot\database\executive.Users... so I changed all the
tags to D:\Hosting\executivemalta\database\executive.Users....
Unfortunatley I keep on receiving the error Data source executive
could not be found! I have also created an access database from the
godaddy control panel and located the database to a folder called
accesscf and changed the DSN route as instructed by godaddy.
Unfortunatley that didn't even work. Could somebody out there be
generous enough to help me solve this problem? The following is the
error:
Error Occurred While Processing Request
Data source executive could not be found.
The error occurred in D:\Hosting\executivemalta\index2.cfm:

Error deploying in Studio when using 2 data sources
I have built a cube using multiple datasources in Essbase Studio. The sources are Oracle database and EPMA dimension server. When I deploy the cube, I receive the following error. However, when I deploy using one source and specify DSN, it works. It is giving me these error when the option is ODBC (Essbase dynamically creates ODBC connection string) which I can't control when there are two sources. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Failed to deploy Essbase cube.
Caused by: Failed to build Essbase cube dimension: (Account) .
Caused by: Cannot get async process state. Essbase Error(1021001): Failed to Establish Connection With SQL Database Server. See log for more informationHey Gunter,
Thanks much, that did work.
The other error I spoke of was fixed with the new database, so apparently the two errors I spoke of weren't related.
You seem to be a good help to this forum, thank you for that.... fixing my problem relieved me from much stress.

Scheduled finish date for process orders not updating in BW
We are having problems with the scheduled finish date (GLTRS) for process orders. When the process order is already released, changes done in R/3 on the scheduled finish date will not result to a delta hence data in BW is not updated. Table AFKO, where data is coming from, is always updated with the changes though. 2LIS_04_P_MATNR is used in extracting the data.
Has anyone experienced the same problem? We are looking for possible ways on how to have a delta whenever there are changes on the process order even after it is already released.
Any help would be greatly appreciated...Hi Donna,
If I've understood your problem correctly, you can increase the load frequency as Sriee has pointed out.
If you want latest data frequently and if you are on BI 7.0 then you can look at Real Time Data Acquisition(RDA)
