sounds like a security issue assuming you can register the same server
locally.

Are those 2 servers located in a same domain? Your current login to the
remote workstation needs to be a member of the olapadmin group of the olap
server machine.

Hi,



Thanks for your reply.

I was out of office for a few days, attending MS course 2074a - MS
Analysis Server :-).



Both machines are on the same domain.

We always logon to our workstation using a domain account, both my
account and my colleagues are in the OLAP Administrators group on
both machines.



Sincerely,



Francis.

Hi, Francis
You can turn on Analysis Service AuditEvents via registry:
Modify the value of HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\OLAP
Server\CurrentVersion\AnditEvents to 15 (Dec), the default value is 13
(Dec).

And then reproduce the problem. This time you can see the actual login name
from Application event log. Is it the same account or not?
Thanks

Hi,

I'm having this exact same problem. I have two development workstations
running Analysis Services one WinXP Pro the other one Win2K pro.. form
the Win2K pro I can register the server running on XP with no problem..
however the other way around y get the message:

[Cannot open connection to Analysis server "mysever" Error in data
[Possible data corruption] .....

I tried your suggestion and the message in the Application Log only says
exactly this:

User closed connection 2 from

which leaves me clueless ..

Id really appreciate any help

thanks
