This post is about deploying SSAS cube on IIS



Deploying cube in IIS

Step 1 - Go to the root folder and create a folder <foldername>. In this I have created a folder called SSAS. Go to <SQL Server Installation path>\<SSAS Folder>\OLAP\bin\isapi and copy the content to the folder which you have created in the root folder.

Step 2 - Open inetmgr and create an application pool on .NET Framework V2.0 and Managed pipeline mode of classic as shown in the image below.

       
Step 3 - Once this is done, create a new web site with the physical path pointing to the folder which you have created in step 1.

                                                                              
Step 4 - Click on website name and then under IIS double click on Authentication.

           

Step 5 - Once it is done right click on Anonymous authentication and click on disable and then enable windows authentication in the same way.

       


Step 6 - Double click on Handler Mappings and on the actions click on Script map same as in step 4.

Step 7 - For Request Path enter *.dll, Executable - point it to the msmdpump.dll in the folder of the report and name it.       


Step 8 - Go to the website folder and you can see a web config file. You need to add the server name <ServerName> as shown below
<ConfigurationSettings>
    <ServerName>fluturavm\fluturahd</ServerName>
    <SessionTimeout>3600</SessionTimeout>
    <ConnectionPoolSize>100</ConnectionPoolSize>
</ConfigurationSettings>
           

Step 8 - Open SQL Server Management Studio and connect to Analysis Service. Once it is done for the server name type the url of the website http://localhost:9999/msmdpump.dll and click on connect.
