hello,
I am having trouble connecting to Analysis Services Server only when another person is already connected. When he is connecting and i try to connect i get the error.

Cannot Connect to the repository
Analysis server: <servername>
Error:
Could not use:;file already in use.

This only happens when the other person is already connected. I connect fine if the other person is not connected

My guess is it has something to do with him having it opened exclusively, but i have no idea how or where to change that.

Any Ideas?

Migrate the repository to SQL Server.

Default = Repository is an access database.

To do: Analysis Services, right-click your server and select Migrate Repository.

To view your current repository string (to see what repository are currently used) select "Edit Repository String" instead.

Hope this helped

Cool...Glad I could help.

Just make sure the repository (only 2 tables), is now in a database that get backed up.
