FIX: Error message when you run an MDX query in SQL Server 2005 Analysis Services: "An unexpected error occurred (file 'pffilestore.cpp', line 3267, function 'PFFileStore::HandleDataPageFault')"
Microsoft distributes Microsoft SQL Server 2005 fixes as one downloadable file. Because the fixes are cumulative, each new release contains all the hotfixes and all the security fixes that were included with the previous SQL Server 2005 fix release.
When you run a Multidimensional Expressions (MDX) query in Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Analysis Services, you receive the following error message:
Executing the query ...
Internal error: An unexpected error occurred (file 'pffilestore.cpp', line 3267, function 'PFFileStore::HandleDataPageFault').
Execution complete
For example, you experience this problem when you run a query that resembles the following:
with member [Customer].[Postal Code].[Test] as null
select generate([Customer].[Postal Code].[03064], generate([Customer].[Postal Code].[Test], [Customer].[City].currentmember)) on 0
from [Adventure Works]
This problem occurs when a slice is set on one attribute, and a related attribute is marked to be decoded later. The slice on the first attribute is overwritten by a calculated member. However, the related attribute is not decoded before the first attribute is overwritten. When SQL Server Analysis Services tries to decode the related attribute from the first attribute, an error occurs because the first attribute has become a calculated member.
A supported hotfix is available from Microsoft. However, this hotfix is intended to correct only the problem that is described in this article. Apply this hotfix only to systems that are experiencing this specific problem. This hotfix might receive additional testing. Therefore, if you are not severely affected by this problem, we recommend that you wait for the next software update that contains this hotfix.

Restart information
You do not have to restart the computer after you apply this hotfix. However, this hotfix stops and then restarts the Analysis Services service. If you configured the server for HTTP access, you must stop Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) and then restart IIS after the installation is finished. If you installed Analysis Services as a named instance, you must stop the SQL Server Browser service. You must stop the SQL Server Browser service because the Msmdredir.dll component of the SQL Server Browser service is updated during the installation of this hotfix.
Registry information
You do not have to change the registry.
