BUG #: 8300 (PLATO_7x)
SYMPTOMS
After you upgrade to Microsoft OLAP Service Pack 2 (SP2) and you attempt to connect to the server, the following error message may occur:
CAUSE
To make the repository locale independent, during the installation process OLAP opens all objects such as cubes and dimensions and saves them back to the repository. However, in OLAP Service Pack 2 (SP2), if the save fails an error message does not occur. Thus, it appears that everything was saved properly when it was not. Consequently, OLAP SP2 leaves the repository in an inconsistent state.
WORKAROUND
To work around this bug, open all the cubes and partitions, and then save them.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in SQL Server OLAP Services version 7.0. This problem has been corrected in U.S. Service Pack 3 for Microsoft SQL Server OLAP Services version 7.0. For information about how to download and install the latest SQL Server OLAP Services Service Pack, see the following Microsoft Web site:

MORE INFORMATION
This bug is fixed in Microsoft OLAP Service Pack 3 (SP3).
