Excel cannot access to ssas cube

Question

Hello everyone,

I encounter random problems concerning the access to the cube ssas via excel. when I connect to the cube via SSMS, access via Excel is unlocked and becomes functional. here is the error message when it is blocked:

Errors in the metadata manager. An error occurred while loading "DatabasePermission" Database permision, from file "\\? \\ D: \\ MSAS13.CEGIBI \\ OLAP \\ Data \\ Bi_AnalysisServices.111.db \\ DatabasePermission.2.perm.xml"

is there a solution to this problem?

Thank you for your help.

I suppose you could try running the DBCC command. But ultimately I expect you will need to delete the Analysis Services database and redeploy from the source code. That error indicates some files in the deployed database are corrupt.
