SharePoint Performance Point Custom Filter Renderer Class Error

Question

I have two servers (Server A and Server B) in one SharePoint 2010 farm. I am getting following error on SharePoint Dashboard page while using the custom PPS filter webpart on Dashboard.

I have used Microsoft PerformancePoint Services SDK sample as base and created a custom Rendered class to define in FilterEditor Class as

filter.RendererClassName = typeof(CustomFilter).AssemblyQualifiedName;

Critial Error:

0x0500 PerformancePoint Service PerformancePoint Services 4 Critical An unexpected error occurred. Error 20798. Exception details: System.ServiceModel.FaultException: An unknown error has occurred. If the problem persists contact an administrator. There may be additional information in the server application event log. Server stack trace: at System.ServiceModel.Channels.ServiceChannel.HandleReply(ProxyOperationRuntime operation, ProxyRpc& rpc) at System.ServiceModel.Channels.ServiceChannel.Call(String action, Boolean oneway, ProxyOperationRuntime operation, Object[] ins, Object[] outs, TimeSpan timeout) at System.ServiceModel.Channels.ServiceChannelProxy.InvokeService(IMethodCallMessage methodCall, ProxyOperationRuntime operation) at System.ServiceModel.Channels.ServiceChannelProxy.Invoke(IMessage message) Exception rethrown at [0]:... c9c0a044-c18d-4374-ad6f-e99d2a2959cd

Critial Error:

And finally:

PerformancePoint Services ef8z Critical An exception occurred while rendering a Web control. The following diagnostic information might help to determine the cause of this problem: Microsoft.PerformancePoint.Scorecards.BpmException: There was a problem preparing the WebPart for display. PerformancePoint Services error code 20700. c9c0a044-c18d-4374-ad6f-e99d2a2959cd

Please advice what I should do to overcome this problem.

In the web.config file, how did you specifiy the assembly for the renderer? It should be in this format: Namespace.Class name, DLL name, DLL version number, DLL culture, DLL public key token

And it should look something like the RendererClass in this example:

<CustomFCO type="Filter" subType="SampleFilter">
    <Resources FCOName="Custom Filter" FCODescription="This is my custom filter." />
    <RendererClass name="Microsoft.PerformancePoint.Scorecards.ServerRendering.MultiSelectTreeViewControl, 
Microsoft.PerformancePoint.Scorecards.ServerRendering, Version=14.0.0.0,
Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=71e9bce111e9429c" />
    <EditorURI uri="/_layouts/SampleFilterEditor.aspx" />
</CustomFCO>
