Set the credentials for the batch file to run as the local computer's SYSTEM account.

-OR-

-OR-

NOTE: The following steps will help resolve this issue as long as you are still running the Task Scheduler according to the Site Server documentation.
  1. Run DCOMCNFG on the Analysis server. To do this, click Start, point to Run, and type DCOMCNFG (just as if you were opening a CMD window). Scroll down the application list to make sure that the UAS Controller API is there (you do not have to select it).
  2. Click the Default Security tab at the top of the dialog box. This change will affect all applications.
  3. Click Edit Default in the Default Access Permissions frame, add the local Site Server Analysis Administrators group and Allow Launch, and then change the domain to your local computer.
  4. Click Edit Default in the Default Launch Permissions frame, add the local Site Server Analysis Administrators group and Allow Launch, and then change the domain to your local computer.
  5. Restart your server.
NOTES:

This procedure assumes that the user context under which you are running the import is in the Site Server Analysis Administrators group (as the documentation describes).

It is only when both of these permissions are set up and you have restarted the server that the import will then proceed without hitting the permissions error.

You should not have to be logged on for the software to run successfully.
