Describe the bug When right-clicking a cube and selecting Deploy Mdx Script, a message-box pops up with no other info than the text "Entry point not found".

To Reproduce

  1. Use the latest versions (see above) of the involved tools, VS, SSAS extension, BIDS extension.
  2. Open an SSAS multi-dimensional project.
  3. Right-click a cube and select "Deploy Mdx Script".
  4. Msg box with error-msg pops up.

Expected behavior The cube's MDX Script should be deployed successfully to the SSAS instance.

Additional context This error started today after I refreshed my dev-tools by upgrading VS 2019 to latest 16.7.7 version and SSAS Projects extension and BIDS extension to their respective latest versions. All other BIDS functionality related to SSAS multi-dim seems to work fine when I try them such as Printer Friendly Dim Usage, Edit Aggregations, Smart Diff etc. It seems it is only "Deploy MDX Script" that is failing.

Can this have something to do with some missing or incorrect DLL file or something like that? Would really appreciate help on this one, since the Deploy MDX-function is really great and it is used a lot.

Thanks for all the effort so far with this great tool.

Problem solved! I uninstalled all the BI extensions AS, IS, RS and reinstalled them one by one again to their latest versions, and now Deploy Mdx Script works again!

For reference, now it looks like this in the BIDS version: image
