This article was previously published under Q323253

SYMPTOMS

When you use the Master Delete (Master_delete.dts) package to delete all records in all tables in the Subject Matter database and cube partition in Analysis Services, the following error may be seen in the Master Delete log file:
Error = -2147220482 (800403FE)
Error Source = Microsoft JET Database Engine
Error Description: Could not update; currently locked by user 'Admin' on machine <machine name>

CAUSE

This problem is caused by the poor locking capability of Jet driver when Analysis Services Repository file format is in Microsoft Access.

RESOLUTION

To resolve this issue, migrate the Analysis Services Repository to SQL Server 2000 and then use the Analysis Services native format. For more information about migrating to SQL Server 2000, see "Migrating Analysis Services Repositories" in Books Online.
