When DEFINE statements are used, the workspace server running PROC OLAP
will create a temporary OLAP Server instance to verify the MDX syntax.
If the workspace server is running in a location where it does not have
write access, the server will return an error:

   ERROR: The immediate MDX execution failed
   Unable to create a temporary directory for utility files
   An SPDE domain cannot be assigned
   An MDX syntax error occured
