Error

A web analytics report is not available for this site. Usage processing may be disabled on this server or the usage data for this site has not been processed yet.

 

Background

Any site in the SharePoint environment is having issue and every single site is getting this issue. Usage and Health data collection Service is provisioned fine.

 

Troubleshooting

  • Checked errors on the SharePoint servers, nothing reported.
  • Checked on the Logs, nothing reported.
  • Enabled Reporting feature on Site collection Admin feature list, nothing worked.

Note :
Enabling “Reporting” Site Collection Feature the Site Settings > Site Web Analytics link disappears and is replaced elsewhere with Popularity Trends (under Site Administration).

Resolution

While looking at the wide audience, Web Analytics is discontinued from SharePoint 2013.

Due to less than optimal performance running service at scale in large enterprises, web analytics has been discontinued and is not available in SharePoint 2013.  Having said that, you can still view some analytics capabilities for e.g. Most Popular Items, Popularity Trends.. report for a specific item/site/sitecollection level
