SSAS : 'Void Microsoft.AnalysisServices.Server.Connect(System.String, Boolean)'

Problem :

We have a fresh install of WS 2012 and SQL Server 2012 Standard. When connecting to Analysis Services with Management Studio, we get the following error:

TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio
------------------------------

Error connecting to 'SERVERNAME'.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:

Method not found: 'Void Microsoft.AnalysisServices.Server.Connect(System.String, Boolean)'. (ObjectExplorer)

BUTTONS:

Advanced Information shows:

   at Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.SqlStudio.Explorer.ObjectExplorerService.ConnectToServer(UIConnectionInfo connectionInfo, IDbConnection liveConnection, Boolean validateConnection)

Database Engine, Reporting Services and Integration Services work fine. Any idea what's wrong with Analysis Services component?

updating the SQL Server with latest updates solved the issue
