I have MSAS set to auto check for new defs at 10:00 am every day and to display
a popup when new defs are available. In the past, the auto check feature hasn't
worked and I've had to manual download the new defs.
At ~10:20 am this morning, the popup saying that new defs were available
appeared. I clicked to download/install and about 1 min later got a message that
the new defs were successfully installed.
Clicking on the MSAA/Help button showed Defs 5693 dated 3/16/2005.
Maybe the new version of MSAS has had the autoupdate feature fixed?
 
Correction - that should have been 5695 for the new defs.
Autoupdate installed the new defs, changed the date but didn't change the def
file number. That didn't change until I clicked MSAS File\Manual Check for
Update button.
Seems maybe the autoupdate feature is still sort of flakey.
 
There is an appearance bug, of long standing, which you are seeing. If you
do a manual update (file, check for updates) you will observe that no actual
update is done, but, at the end, the correct information should be shown at
Help, About.

I've also seen, for a short period of time, the date and time be incorrect,
even though the definition version number is correct.
