Connection issue: SSAS 2005

  • Unable to connect to SSAS 2005 using SSMS.

    A connection cannot be made to redirector. Ensure that 'SQL Browser' service is running. (Microsoft.AnalysisServices.AdomdClient)

    ------------------------------

    No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.

    I tried re-installed SQL 2005 itself but still the same error message.

    Appreciate your help.

  • Are you trying to access SSAS locally?

    If this is the case be sure both Browser Service and SSAS Service are set to login as "Local System" account.

  • I was trying something to make this work. I did open Surface Area Configuration to check the remote connections.

    When i click the "Remote Connections" i am getting the error message as below.

    ---------------------------------------

    TITLE: Surface Area Configuration

    ------------------------------

    To configure Analysis Service remote connections, you must be an administrator for the Analysis Services Windows service. (SQLSAC)

    ------------------------------

    ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:

    A connection cannot be made to redirector. Ensure that 'SQL Browser' service is running. (Microsoft.AnalysisServices)

    ------------------------------

    No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.

    I am the administrator for the local machine and how to check what account it uses to run "SQLSAC". Also my SSAS instance name is "CON1". I dont see a process named "MSSQLSERVEROLAPService$CON1 under Services. Instead i see the services with name "SQL Server Analysis Services (CON1)". Is this okay or i am missing anything? Please help me out.

  • The issue got resolved after running chkdisk on my laptop... It was popping up everytime when i reboot my machine.. I tried that once and the connection issue got resolved.
