Error: Cannot connect to PerformancePoint Services
I saw this today and was completely confused because I had literally just finished creating the Service Application in PowerShell and knew it was successful. The root cause was a missing Service Connection. Creating the SA was only the first step, I also need to associate it to the default proxy group. Fiddler was handy here to quickly isolate the error. I actually wrote PowerShell code that that but seem to have lost it during a VM snapshot restore, urg.
Cannot connect to PerformancePoint Services. Contact the administrator for more details.

Other possible causes:
- Central Admin > Missing a Performance Point Service Application? Make sure you have one.
- Site Collection Feature > PerformancePoint Services needs to be active. I use the Business Intelligence Center template to make this easier.
- TCP/HTTP. Don’t forget basic connectivity. If you are using multiple servers make sure you can reach the remote host, use Fiddler to watch the connection attempt
