Tools:
SQL Server Data Tools for SQL Server 2012
Microsoft SQL Server 2012 

Scenario:
Using the above tools to create  a cube in a new business analysis solution, I was getting the top error when I try to process the cube. Finally I discovered that the issue was that I am using provider Native OLE DB\SQL Server Native Client 11.0 while the DB acceptability was SQL Serevr 2005 (90).

Resolution:
this can be solved by reverting to the provider Native OLE DB\SQL Server Native Client 10.0
