I'm having the weirdest issue with Report Builder 3 whilst trying to create a Data Source:
- Fresh install of RB3
- New Blank Report > Data Sources > Add Data Source (Use connection embedded in my report)
- Select SQL Server Analysis Services and then the Build... button
- Configure the connection settings
- Test connection >>> Test Results - Test connection succeeded.
- Click OK
- Then in the Data Source Properties window click Test Connection >>> Error, Unable to connect to the data source
I've tried this with a number of different server and connection types with the following error details:
SSAS (local) - A connection cannot be made to redirector. Ensure that 'SQL Browser' service is running. (It is!)
SQL (local) - (Timeout) A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible.
SSAS (remote) - Retrieving the COM class factory for component with CLSID {B9776FC2-70D8-4664-A0DF-998114524D67} failed due to the following error: 80070005.
SQL (remote) - Login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITY\ANONYMOUS LOGON'.
SSAS (another remote) - The connection either timed out or was lost.
There is obviously something very wrong here as both Excel and SSMS can connect to every one of the sources without issue.
There should be no double hop issues since it is my computer direct to the database (or even my local machine in some cases).
The Report Designer in Visual Studio 2012 doesn't have any of these issues.
Some questions:
- Anyone know what is going on and how i can investigate or fix?
- What is the difference in code path between the conneciton dialog's test connection and the data source properties one?
