SAP HANA MDX Provider: Connectoin Error

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

This is first time I am trying to use HANA Provider to access my HANA in Excel. After passing the connection parameters I am getting 'host not known' error. Not sure, if some host file entry required.

Hello Jitendra,

the host you have specified is unknown (can't be resolved).

Make sure you have a entry in your windows machine hosts file found in: c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts

An example entry would look as follows:

10.10.10.25 myhdbsrv myhdbsrv.mycompany.com

Hi Jitender,

Please check Whether you installed 32bit or 64bit HANA Client tools ( MDX Connection )

compatible with your system.

and try connecting again.

Hi Reddy,

I have installed 32bit client since I am using MS Office 32 bit version. I guess the error is related to some entry in host file but not sure yet.
