I know SQL, someother vendors, so hopefully just problem with importing the database, or how i set it up.
I am following the "Microsoft SQL Server Analysis Services 2008 with MDX" exmaples and when during the first deplay i get the following error
Error 16 OLE DB error: OLE DB or ODBC error: Login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITY\NETWORK SERVICE'.; 28000; Cannot open database "AdventureWorksDW2008" requested by the login. The login failed.; 42000. 0 0
Anyone can guide me to where i went wrong i would apprciate that.
Thanks
Chuck

Hi,

When I run SSAS locally on my laptop I usually use my own windows login account as the service account for SSAS and my local SQL Server RDBMS.

This will also make sure that if you have an external SQL Server data source and you have read permissions on that source, it is possible to build SSAS cubes on your local computer. I usually do this for test and prototypes.

You can change this in the configurations tool, SQL Server Configuration manager.

I think this will solve u problem.
