Error Message:An unexpected internal error has occured.Please restart the application. I’m want to create the new cube in the same database itself. SQL runs on SP4
The cube contains both private & shared dimensions.

Akthar, microsoft suggests to apply the latest Service Pack, which I believe is SP4. Is there anything U can think of can be the cause.
Thank u

Is copy work when you copy the cube to new database.
Because it’s working fine for me.
I can copy & paste on same AS in same DB with diffrent name.
Also reinstall Analysis Services SP4 again if you have already installed.

hi Nisha, Sorry i cant think of anything else, right now, but you can Reinstall your SP4 as ranjitjain said, could be a good first step. AKTHAR DILMOHAMUD
