Bug #: 14583 (Plato7x)
Bug #: 14458 (Plato7x)


Microsoft distributes Microsoft SQL Server 2000 fixes as one downloadable file. Because the fixes are cumulative, each new release contains all the hotfixes and all the security fixes that were included with the previous SQL Server 2000 fix release.

SUMMARY

This article describes the following about this hotfix release:

  • The issues that are fixed by this hotfix package
  • The prerequisites for installing the hotfix package
  • Information about whether you must restart the computer after you install the hotfix package
  • Information about whether the hotfix package is replaced by any other hotfix package
  • Information about whether you must make any registry changes
  • The files that are contained in the hotfix package


SYMPTOMS

After you configure drillthrough permissions on a virtual cube in Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Analysis Services, the drillthrough operation fails. Additionally, you may receive an error message that is similar to the following:

Unable to drill through.
Access denied to the cube BaseCube.

Note BaseCube is the name of a base cube for the virtual cube.

CAUSE

This problem occurs because drillthrough security permissions are not set on the base cube. When you set security permissions on the virtual cube, the security permissions are not propagated to the base cube. When the server on which SQL Server 2000 Analysis Services is installed receives a drillthrough request, the server evaluates drillthrough security permissions on the virtual cube and on the base cubes. The most restrictive set of drillthrough permissions is applied.
