FIX: Real-Time Cubes Fail to Process with a Measure Defined as Distinct Count (294535)

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Analysis Services

This article was previously published under Q294535

BUG #: 10884 (Plato7.x)

SYMPTOMS

When you process a real-time cube that uses the Distinct Count function as an aggregation type for a Measure, the following error message occurs:

CREATE UNIQUE INDEX terminated because a duplicate key was found for index <Index Name>. Most significant primary key is <Key Name>. The statement has been terminated.

CAUSE

Decision Support Objects (DSO) generates the CREATE INDEX statement incorrectly. The Distinct Count field is left off, which then causes the error message to occur.

RESOLUTION

To resolve this problem, obtain the latest service pack for the Microsoft SQL Server 2000 (the Analysis Services Components - Sql2kasp1.exe). For additional information, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
