SQL Server 2017 CU5 and CU6 Analysis Services Processing Task Error - Solution

  • Hi dear friends,
    For those who are struggling with the error below, i have a simple - don't know if 100% right - solution.
    The error message is:
    Analysis Services Processing Task:Error: Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.AnalysisServices.AdomdClientUI, Version=14.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=89845dcd8080cc91' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.

    The above library is missing on X:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\140\DTS\Binn, maybe by a mistake from somebody on Microsoft.
    The solution i found was:

    1. Download the ADOMD client from https://docs.microsoft.com/pt-br/azure/analysis-services/analysis-services-data-providers
    2. Install it on a non production computer.
    3. Copy the file Microsoft.AnalysisServices.AdomdClientUI.dll from X:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server\140\Tools\Binn\ManagementStudio on this computer to X:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\140\DTS\Binn on the server.
    I hope i can help.
  • I don't use that part of SQL Server but awesome job, Giovanni. Ya just gotta love the people in this community.  Thanks for taking the time to post your work around.

    I hope MS has their ears on. 😀

    RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
    First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
    ________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

    Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.
