ADOMD.NET to local AS2000 .cub file error

[Database Administrator]

Hello,

I am using Microsoft.AnalysisServices.AdomdClient version 9.0.242.0, to try
and connect to a local .cub file. I am able to establish a connection using
the code from the MS sample application (below 1/.), there is no error thrown
in the .net app, however there seems to be a significant lag time, and an
error is raised in the event log (see below 2/.). I have tried with the
providers MSOLAP.2 and MSOLAP.3 , but am still getting these errors, can
anyone help, (we need to go live with a solution last month) ?

1/.

Dim adomdConn As AdomdConnection = Nothing

connectionString = "Data Source = C:\Program
Files\TNS\Cub\00134290-0014-ffff-ffff-ffffffffffff.cub;Provider=MSOLAP.2;"

connection = New AdomdConnection(connectionString)

Try
connection.Open()
Catch ex As Exception
' Display the error.
Throw ex
End Try


2/. Source = MSOLAP$LocalCube
