• I have the same problem. I have SQL 2008 installed on my local system. Created a windows local account and in SQL server added this account with sysadmin access.

    I have changed the account in the analysis servesis services(configuration manager) to this account.

    Now I am able to start and stop services but when I go nad try to process any dimension in SSAS I get the above error.

    OLE DB error: OLE DB or ODBC error: Login failed for user '029W-8MS0CK1\srini'.; 28000.

    Process failed.

    Any suggestions appriciated

    Thanks for reading.
