Problem

The user receives the error messages above when using Data Assist in the Reporting Server's Web Console to save a change to the datatype of a measure in a synonym representing an SSAS Tabular adapter.

Solution

The AUTORUN and DATA PREVIEW options were enabled and the query to sample data exhausted memory. Turning those options off resolved the issue.

Here are the steps to accomplish this:

  1. Access the Web Console.
  2. Go to Workspace.
  3. On the top button bar, choose Settings and click Settings for Web Console Preferences.
  4. Under Data Assist, locate the AUTORUN and AUTO_DATA_PREVIEW options. You can enable/disable the options here.
