We have Analysis Services installed on Windows 2000 with SP3a on both SQL Server and Analysis Services. When we boot the server, we always get this message:

"SqlDumper.exe - Entry Point not found"
"The procedure entry point MiniDumpWriteDump could not be located in the dynamic link library dbghelp.dll."

Analysis Services locks up after that and no one can connect.

I found an article at [url]http://dbforums.com/arch/178/2003/2/704065[/url] which suggested copying dbghelp.dll from SQL Server's binn directory to the Analysis Services bin directory. But this doesn't fix the problem.

Does anyone have a fix for this? Thanks in advance.
