SYMPTOMS

While processing multiple partitions in parallel, when one partition attempts to write to the DTS log file, it may produce an error message that resembles the following:

Could not write errors regarding missing dimension member key errors to the log file. Permission denied.

Following the error, the OLAP processing tasks in the package stop.

CAUSE

When an OLAP processing task attempts to write to the DTS log file and the log file is locked by another task, the processing task considers this to be an error, displays the above message, and stops processing.
