AS / Creating cubes

Hi,
I have started to learn Analysis Services. I did the tutorial step by step,
but the last step "create the 'Sales' cube" doesn't work. I get the error
message "Unable to create cube 'sales'" - Unspecified error. It doesn't even
work with the manuelly in footmart creatd cube. What is wrong here? I have
also installed sp3a.
My other question is that is it possible to create diagramms in AS? If no,
how do you create you database diagramms?
Many thanks in advance
Do you belong to OLAP Admin group? Do you have write permission on OLAP
cube data directory?
