Hi,

I receive this error from my workstation when I try to access my AS 2005
server through the HTTP protocol:
xml parsing failed at line 1, column 9: DTD is prohibited

opening this on the server himself works fine.

any idea?

thanks.

Jerome

thanks for the link, but this doesn't helps me.

My server is a Win 2003 one.

now I have a strange result:
on the server himself, I can start a new session, I mean starting an anlysis
from scratch,
but when I reopen it, the connection failed!
"Either a connection cannot be made to the <server> server, or Analysis
Services is not running on the computer specified."

the virtual directory is set to basic authentication.
but if I activate the anonymous logon, then I can reopen my previous
analysis!!!

The IIS log file contain this:
2005-11-10 02:10:04 W3SVC1 192.168.1.7 POST /xmla/msmdpump.dll - 80 -

So I receive various errors regarding which security combination I have.
I'm using the pivottable.

I have also follows this document without more success

The only point...
this server is a standalone server not included in my active directory.

do you think this could impact the connectivity?

I think no, because the connection works fine at the first usage but not
during reopening.

I have tried setting up HTTP access as per the article, with basic auth. I do
get to the UserId prompt, but then "The page cannot be found", error 404.
I used to have this set up in AS 2000.
Also, I'm wondering how I can specify the database to which I'm connecting.
In AS 2000, I would be specifying it in the connection string of the OWC
component. In AS 2005, how do I load the OWC components if the URL must point
to the datapump dll?

Correction: the error is "internal server error", 500 and not 404 as
previously indicated.

It is very stange problem. I suspect is not related specifically to Analysis
Services.
I suggest you contact product support services.

What client application you are using to connect? Is client macine has AS
OLEDB 9 installed?

As for specifying the database.
Please note that the URL you are specifying replaces only the server name in
the connection dialog. You should be specify the datbase name in exact the
same name you would specify if connecting through TCP/IP.

I get the DTD error on the client machine (from OWC 11, with SQL 2000 client
and OLDDB 9 installed), so I'm now trying on the server machine (SQL 2005
installed). That's where I'm getting the 500 error.
The scenario is that I navigate to the http://SERVER/olap/msmdpump.dll URL,
I get the userid+password prompt for the basic authentication, and then I get
the http 500 - Internal server error
