SYMPTOMS
Consider the following scenario. In Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Analysis Services, you run a Multidimensional Expressions (MDX) query. This MDX query uses the NON EMPTY keyword to remove empty members from one axis of a query or from more than one axis of a query. In this scenario, the query is unsuccessful, and you receive one of the following error messages:
Error message 1
Error message 2
Additionally, Analysis Services closes unexpectedly. You experience this problem if one or more of the dimensions in the OLAP cube that you query contain placeholder members.
