I scripted an existing database with cube and a bunch of dimensions. After deleting the existing database, I tried to run the create statement I scripted prior to dropping and it throws me an error Database doesn't exist.

    it throws me an error Database doesn't exist.

    Hi @Rajesh Paruchuri ,
    Square brackets around the catalog name in an XMLA query will cause the error to occur. See more: Analysis Services (SSAS) Error when Executing Query - User does not Have Access or Database does not Exist.
