Hi,
We've been asked to enable an external client to access a cube via OWC.
The idea is that if they play about with the cube through the PivotTable
control, this will enable them to define their requirements for a reporting
system to sit on top of the cube.
I've read and implemented the contents of the following document:-
- http://www.microsoft.com/technet/pr...5/httpasws.mspx
I've installed OWC and the SQL data access components on a test machine, and
have been trying to access the cube through a web-page hosting the pivot
table control.
Data access across domains is enabled in IE
The error returned is "The query could not be processed: The HTTP server
returned the following error: Forbidden."
Obviosuly some security setting somewhere needs to be tweaked ... but which
one :/
Access to the web-page hosting the OWC control will be locked down by IP
address.
Bearing all the above, what is the most straightforward means of enabling
access via the OWC PivotTble control?
Thank you for help.does the XMLA virtual directory is hosted on the SSAS server himself or on
another HTTP server?
what is the security mode of the virtual directory? Anonymous, Basic, or
integrated security?

Do the interactivity features of OWC client side exist with reporting
services?
Can we replace the work that we do now with OWC and lots of javascript with
RS?I've looked at trying to replicate the pivottable owc in reporting services
but rs just isn't for that, well not without a mega amount of programming.
What part of OWC are you using?

understand it is difficult to implement the same functionality in HTML than
using ActiveX controls. However, you can integrate your OWC components to
run RS reports, e.g. when the lowest level in a dimension hierarchy is
reached.
One more thing. In RS OWC are used only when exporting the report to HTML
OWC format. When this happen, RS exports matrix regions as pivot tables,
charts as chart space objects. However, OWC is not linked to the data
source. Instead, the data is always restricted to the data that the report
query returns.

Hope this helps.
