Hello All,
How to assign the DataSource to Server Report which is stored in the remote machine. Now i need to work on it. If you have any solution please pass on it to me.
Thanks,
SR.
I have 3 web identical web apps whose only diff is that they access different SQl Server DB's. I use the SQLDataSource in a number of pages to retrieve data from the db. The apps all use Forms Auth. I would like to be able to see who is the logged on user user and assign the approp connection string to all the SQLDataSources in the app. For example when user UserA logs in they are retrieving data from on db but when UserB logs in they are retrieving data from another db.
I am sure this can be done but could use a little guidance. Thanks in advance.
I wish to dynamically assign Select Statement to SqlDataSource. Anyone has any idea?? Is it possiable at all?
I am coding using C# under Framwork 2.0
How can i assign select statement to a sqldatasource
I mean if the user clicks button 1
sqldatasource=-"select * from customers where status='ClOSED' "
or else if the user clicks button2
sqldatasource="Select * from Customers Where Status='OPEN' "
I want to bind the sqldatasource to a gridview finally .
Is this possible ?
I tried sqldatasource filters But am reallly confused
Any suggestions/solutions are appreciated
thankyou

Hello,
I am not sure if this possible, but I have store procedures that access to multiple databases, therefore I currently have to hardcode my database name in the queries. The problem start when I move my store procedures into the production, and the database name in production is different. I have to go through all my store procedures and rename the DBname. I am just wonder if there is way that I could define my database name as a global variable and then use that variable as my DB name instead of hardcode them?
something like
Declare @MyDatabaseName varchar(30)
set @MyDatabaseName = "MyDB"
SELECT * from MyDatabaseName.dbo.MyTable
Any suggestion? Please.
Thanks in advance
Hi,
I need to write a report which will run based on the user's input for Server Group. Meaning, if the user wants the report to be run for one say, UAT group, the report (and therefore the stored procedure) should be executed against UAT server. Or, if the user wants it to be run on the Production machine, the stored procedure should be executed on the Production Server. Assume that both UAT and Production servers are in the same domain to rule out any authentication issue.
I think one way of doing is to create a linked server on one server which we use to connect via the Report Manager. So, whatever Server Group is selected based on that the SP will be executed on that respective Server Group's Server, since in the query we will have given full names of the tables that we use.
But, I suspect, that having linked servers will not be accepted since it requires that the server owners maintain that. So, I was thinking if there is any other way of achieving this. If anyone knows, please help me with this. I am working on SRS 2000 and NOT 2005 please.
Thanks a lot...

Helo All,
I have report which uses an ssis package as a datasource. when I develop the report on the visual studio seems like it runs fine. But when I deployed the same report on to the server (report server 64 bit machine) it is throwing me an error:
An error has occurred during report processing.
Cannot create a connection to data source 'DataSource1'.
is not a valid Win32 application. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x800700C1)
I have both sql sever and reporting server on the same machine and using windows credentials for both the servers(sql and reporting).Then I believe there is no credential issue.
My connection string looks something like this:
="/FILE C:NTSDWKPIKPI_SSISNTSKPICCA_DATA_RECON_DELIVERY.dtsx /SET Package.Variables[User::V_SSRS_PARAM].Properties[Value];" & """" & Parameters!V_SETT_DATE.Value & """"
Could any please help me out of this?
Note: SSIS is parameterized here!
Regards,
Raju
Can I assign values to variables in 2012 using below command? I have used the same command in 2008 and it works fine.
DTEXEC
/SERVER"XXXXXXXXSQLSERVER2012"/SQL"Mypackage.dtsx"/SETPackage.Variables[FilePath].Value;"C:Test estvariable.csv"
Wondering is there a different way in 2012 to pass values to variables dynamically.
The current way I have my asp.net 2.0 web app running reports is, based on an
interface the user selects the criteria for a report. The .RDL file is created
dynamically based on the user's selections.
I then need to SOAP the dynamically created report to the report server and
then the report runs fine.
BUT it requires Adminstrative rights to do this. Can this be accomplished
without giving the local machine admin rights. I am sorry if this question
has been answered before but i have not been up here in a while.
Dear All:
I am new to SSRS 2005.
I have created many shared datsources and reprots at http://localhost/resportserver.
I am trying to access these reports from ReportViewer in the web application. Actually I want to use these reports for different customers by just changing the datsource programitically.
Is this is a possible?
Thank you

We are setting up a new reporting environment for our client and as part of the deliverable I need to achieve the following two things.
1. Most of our reports are snapshot reports and all the data needed gets populated into transaction DB tables from a batch program. Some of batches run monthly and others on request, we use a scheduling tool to run these batches. For monthly running batches since I know when they run, I have scheduled snapshot report for the respective dates. But the batch that run on request have no fixed schedule so my question : Is there a way I can invoke or kick off a particular SSRS snapshot Report as soon as the batch completes running. For example if a on-request batch program finishes running today at 6PM , I would like to create a snapshot report as soon as the batch finishes running. Is this achievable ?!
2. As I mentioned above most of the reports are snapshot reports and client wants Report history of 10yrs. We have about 170 reports on the whole which run monthly/daily/yearly. Is there a best practice known in maintaining all the reports and where to store them?
We are using MS SQL Server Reporting Services 2014.
I am using RDLC report with Microsoft visual studio 2005. In the first page of rdlc i have two text boxes and one table in body section. In the second and subsequent pages i want to repeat the data from textbox1 and textbox2 along with table data continuation of page1.
Currently the continuation of table data from page1 to page2 is working properly. But the textbox1 and textbox2 data also needs to be repeated in every pages.
I tried the following steps, but fails to work.
1. added two text boxes in header section and another two text boxes in Body section.
2. Assigns the dataset value to textboxes in body section.
(Ex: =first(Fields!Address.Value)
3. Assigns the textboxes value from Body section to the corresponding text boxes in header section.
(Ex : =first(ReportItems!textbox1.Value))
Result:
The header text box value displayed in the first page only and not repeated in the subsequent pages.
Expected:
Whatever assigned to the header section should be repeated in the subsequent pages. But only page number, date... is reflecting in other pages and not the text box values in header section.
Kindly give me the solution.
Thanks in advance.
Hello :
Can we make to cross the name of the DataSource in URL of the report ?
Thank you very mutch.
hi everyone,
I created a report model and deployed it. When I open the rpt builder on web I get the following error.
'The selected data source does not have and content available'
Seemed like it would be a easy issue, but I cannot retrieve any data in the rpt model. The datasource I'm using does work for rpts not associated with the rpt model. Any suggestions? It seems like I've missed a step. Thanks, Lisa
I have an xml file that defines the fields in my dataset and I want to hook this up to a report so it can uses those fields when creating a local report. However I can't figure out how to do this. I have an RDLC file but I don't know where or how to hook it up to the XSD file. What do I need to do?

When trying to configure a WCF service as a report data source I have these following questions:
1. What do I need to provide for the connection string?
I currently wrote http://localhost:8003/ServiceName/ which returns the WSDL. Is that correct?
2. I don't know what to write inside the Query defintion. I currently wrote:
<Query>
<SoapAction>
http://tempuri.org/ServiceContractInterface/MethodName
</SoapAction>
<Method Namespace="http://tempuri.org/ServiceContractInterface"
Name="MethodName">
</Method>
</Query>
and the result is:
Failed to prepare web request for the specified URL. (Microsoft.ReportingServices.DataExtensions).
Can any one please point me in the right direction?!
Thanks.
Is there a way to create a Report Model with XML / WebService as datasource?
I am able to generate reports that connect to a WebService through Report Designer, but unable to find similar functionality in Model Designer.
I've got a strange problem with ReportBuilder. I've created a DataSource name Config and a Model name Customers. We been using this model for month and everything was working fine. Now when we try to create a new report we cannot run it. When Report Builder is running i select the "Customer" model. Then i put some fields on the report. When i try to run it i've got an error saying that it cannot create the command for datasource1. What i don't understand is why the error occured in Datasource1 and not in my datasource config ?
When i open the Report Manger and click on the model "Customer" the datasource use by this model is Config. So the problem is not because they're is a mistake in the configuration. I've tried to rebuild my model and datasource then deployed them but i still have the same problem.
Any idea of what the problem is ? I can't figure out
I've severals reports that connect to an ORACLE database, in the RDL file i've the save password but when i open the report again ou i use the sharepoint report viewer the username an password of the oracle database is always asked.

thx

We have an application using the winforms report viewer, and it displays all our reports perfectly untill I need to redeploy a report.
As soon as a report is re-deployed a refresh of the report in the viewer shows the following error message:
An error has occured during report processing. The data souce 'mydatasource' cannot be found.
This error occurs irrespective of electing to re-deploy ot not re-deploy the datasource, and the only solution seems to be to close the report viewer down and restart it.
I can reproduce the same problem hosting the reports in a web browser as well, with a slightly different error message
An error has occurred during report processing. (rsProcessingAborted). The data source 'mydatasource' cannot be found. (rsDataSourceNotFound)
Under RS2000 any changes that were made to a report, would automatically be shown to the user if the report was refreshed, without having to close the browser/application down and restart it.
Can I configure RS2005 to prevent this error occuring ? I have read that RS2005 seems to work a lot more within the IIS session for the user and cache things it thinks are usefull, so can I turn this behaviour off, or make it run like RS 2000 did, which provided me with a stable reporting platform?
If I cannot do this from the RS end of the system, is there any advice on using the winforms control to get around this issue - i've only just started using the control so I am not familiar with all its aspects !
Thanks

Hi All,
Is there a way in SSIS to specify SSRS report as a datasource? I don't see any options in the data flow sources..
Thanks a lot!!
Hello.
I am trying to render a report that I set up with SSRS 2005 from an existing .Net web application. The report takes in a multi-valued parameter (sequenceNums) and displays data accordingly.
This is the url I am passing from the web application:
Code Blockhttp://myservername/ReportServer/Pages/ReportViewer.aspx?%2fProjectDBReports%2fCriticality&rs:Command=Render&rc:parameters=false&sequenceNums=4299,4312
Upon redirect, I receive the following error "one or more data sources is missing credentials"
I currently have the following connection settings checked for the DataSource used in the report:
- connect using credentials supplied by the user running the report
- use as windows credentials when connecting to the DataSource
When I attempt to view the report with no parameters being passed in, the report renders properly and I receive a prompt asking me for my credentials.
Do I have to connect to my DataSource using credentials stored securely on the report server?
Thanks in advance.
Sam
ps - i included the url within a code block so no smiley faces would show
Hi,
I have a data table called STOCKPE which holds stock valuation information at the close of business each day. I wish to use reporting services to extract the data in this table on a daily basis and keep a daily history on the report server. I know I can do this - this isn't my problem.
When I have the history of this table on the report server, can the data that the reports on the report server hold be used as a datasource for another report?
I'm no expert in reporting services, so if this is possible, or if there's a better way of doing it, please use small words and short sentences. No offence intended to all the very well educated SQLRS wizards out there, it's just that I'm not one of them and your answer will be lost on me if you use a lot of abreviations and acronyms.
Thanks,
Chris
Hi all,
I'm just getting started with Reporting Services and have a question.
I'm trying to set up a report model based on a UDB data source. However when I use the report model wizard, I get presented with:
[DB2/SUN] SQL0104N An unexpected token "SET TRANSACTION" was found following "BEGIN-OF-STATEMENT" ... SQLSTATE 42601.
I think that this is trying to set transaction isolation levels however this is not valid SQL for a UDB database.
Is there something that I'm missing with my configuration to make RS know that this is a non-SQLServer database?
Many thanks,
JK
Hi,
I have set up a report to access a web service and consume one of its methods - a method that returns a datatable set up with a table adapter. Query code example below:
Code Block
<Query>
<Method Namespace="http://AcornExportWebServices.org" Name="GetAllEnquiries"></Method>
<SOAPAction>http://AcornExportWebServices.org/GetAllEnquiries</SOAPAction>
<ElementPath IgnoreNamespaces="true">
GetAllEnquiriesResponse{}/
GetAllEnquiriesResult/diffgram{}/
DocumentElement{}/Enquiry
</ElementPath>
</Query>
This works fine and returns expected results.
However, when I try and return a set of results from a web service that has a parameter specified I get nothing returned. I have tried various different methods including adding the parameter in the dataset dialogue and specifying the parameter and specifying the parameters as in the code example below but still with no joy. Here is the code example with parameters:
Code Block
<Query>
<Method Namespace="http://AcornExportWebServices.org" Name="GetEnquiry">
<Parameters>
<Parameter Name="EnquiryID">
<DefaultValue>1</DefaultValue>
</Parameter>
</Parameters>
</Method>
<SOAPAction>http://AcornExportWebServices.org/GetEnquiry</SOAPAction>
<ElementPath IgnoreNamespaces="true">
GetEnquiryResponse{}/
GetEnquiryResult/diffgram{}/
DocumentElement{}/Enquiry
</ElementPath>
</Query>
When I remove the ElementPath declaration I get back the schema of the table so I believe that is proof that the web method is being contacted but whatever I seem to try I cannot return any results (or the 1 result that the web service should return).
I would be grateful to know if anyone has any ideas or suggestions about this problem.
Thanks.
Hello Everyone,
I make a report to consume a SSIS package, actually I use SSIS to load a datasheet on my Sql Server database, then i expose the aggregate values in a datareader destination. Every work fine in Visual Studio. But when i deploy my report and my Shared Data Source, and I try to run the report i get the next message:
An error has occurred during report processing.
No se puede crear una conexión al origen de datos 'ETLSource'.
The package failed to validate.
I dont Understand why, because when i work in BIDS the work perfect, Actually i'm using sql server authentication in my package connection to avoid the mistakes about report credentials.
That is the code of the ETLSource.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RptDataSource xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
<Name>ETLSource</Name>
<DataSourceID>c238d65d-a0f3-48da-ae23-323d6ba13bb0</DataSourceID>
<ConnectionProperties>
<Extension>SSIS</Extension>
<ConnectString>-f "C:TempValidaCambioEfec.dtsx"</ConnectString>
</ConnectionProperties>
</RptDataSource>
Also I have SSIS and SSRS in the same machine. And I'm using the same domain Account to run SSIS, SSRS and Reports site.
Thank you for help me

Greetings,
Let say I first use a URL in a web browser to render a PDF file.
Next the data changes.
Now I use the same browser session and call the URL again to render the PDF file; in the second rendering, the PDF report reflects the old data and not the changed data.
How do I force RS, using the same browser session, to render the second PDF file by requerying the data? Has any body come across the phenomenon? If I open a new browser session, the rendered PDF file reflects the new data. I have used Profiler to look at the SQL calls and sure enough, the second URL RS request does not requery the datasource.
Thanks

I'm receiving the following message after I've created a datasource and datasource view:
[DB2/SUN] SQL0104N An unexpected token "SET TRANSACTION" was found following "BEGIN-OF-STATEMENT" ... SQLSTATE 42601.
Hi,
I was wondering if there's a way to connect to a shared datasource in the Code section of a report's properties. I want to connect using my shared datasource as defined in my solution and query it to return a value based on user input for a function I need to put there.
Thanks,
Greg
I'm trying to create report with datasource as a cube. I'm able to connect to datasource to pull data with a single parameter. But, I'm unable to succeed in creating a cascading parameter.
The following scenario:
I have a dimension "Period" as Paremeter.
The Period dimension is cascaded to year- quarter- month.
So, I would like to create a cascading parameter for period as year - quarter - month.
Please let me know, how to acheive this.
thanks,
Naveen.
I decided to delete the encryption key.After that when I go to the reporting page, the report cannot connect to the datasource.
An error has occurred during report processing. (rsProcessingAborted)
Cannot create a connection to data source 'xxxxx'. (rsErrorOpeningConnection)
For more information about this error navigate to the report server on the local server machine, or enable remote errors
What do I suppose to do?
