SYMPTOMS

In Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Analysis Services, you try to deploy a new cube by using Cartesis ES Information Delivery Administrator. When you do this, Analysis Services continually generates minidump files. Additionally, the deployment process stops responding, and you cannot connect to the instance of Analysis Services.

This problem occurs when proactive caching is enabled on the cube. When this problem occurs, the following event may be logged in the Application log:Event Type: Error
Event Source: <MSOLAP$InstanceName>
Event Category: (256)
Event ID: 22
Date: <Date>
Time: <Time>
User: N/A
Computer: <ComputerName>
Description: The description for Event ID ( 22 ) in Source ( <MSOLAP$InstanceName> ) cannot be found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry information or message DLL files. To display messages from a remote computer. You may be able to use the /AUXSOURCE= flag to retrieve this description; see Help and Support for details.

Restart information

You do not have to restart the computer after you apply this hotfix. However, this hotfix stops and then restarts the Analysis Services service. If you configured the server for HTTP access, you must stop Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) and then restart IIS after the installation is complete. If you installed Analysis Services as a named instance, you must stop the SQL Server Browser service. You must stop the SQL Server Browser service because the Msmdredir.dll component of the SQL Server Browser service is updated during the installation of this hotfix.

Registry information

You do not have to change the registry.
