I have a client who is desperate to site using the Site Usage report, but nothing is ever being returned in the Excel report. As per all other threads WSS_ADMIN_WPG, WSS_WPG have premissions and I can see the relevant folders within the Logs folder and usage information gets created and uploaded into the WSS_Logging database.
The SPFarm account has DBO permissions on this database.
Health and Data Collection Proxy is started and healthy as far as I can check.
I have tried to use a SQL login to get the data, this did not work either.
I am at a loss as to why nothing is being returned, your assistance would be much appreciated

**Update**
Have run a SQL Trace on the Logging database when a report is requested, however this seems quite obscure with functions and stored procs calling each other.
I located a stored proc called prc_EnumRequestUsage and dug through the code and functions which it calls and I have found that there is this table called MonthlyPartitions which is empty and seems to be the problem point in the whole process.
I am not too sure whether there is anything wrong at the database end in terms of it's ability to return anything or not.
