Issue when applying transformations

Dear All,

 

I can transform data but when I apply the transformations to all data I have an Error message (as below).

 

Do you have any idea how to solve this problem please?

 

Exception is: AdomdConnectionException - A connection cannot be made. Ensure that the server is running.

 

Feedback Type:
Frown (Error)

Error Message:

Hi @Anonymous ,

After researching, I think it might be caused by the fact that the Browser Service account was changed to the domain account. Please try to change the service account to Local System and check if this issue persists or not.
