Option 2 for solving the issue "during processing" worked for me. For newer users here are the instructions again but with more detail. 1) Stop Analysis Services on the Server using the Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Services 2) If you aren't deploying your SSAS database from a Visual Studio project then you need to reverse engineer it out of the SSAS server environment so it can be recreated after you (basically) delete it. 3) If you don't know where your dataDir is, right click on the Analysis Services Server node in SQL Mgmt Studio. Choose [Properties], the Properties window will open and there will be a list of properties. When you find the dataDir property you will see a file path - that file path is your dataDir. In that directory you will find a folder and an XML file that match your SSAS DB name. change the names on the file and the directory (no use deleting them until you know you will be successful). 4. Restart Analysis Services (see step 1) 5. Go into your Visual Studio project...build and deploy.
