We have a billing web service where you passs in the account and amount and get returned an XML string with result.
I had suggested that I open up an endpoint and have the service listen for messages but the programming team wont go for it.
What is the best method for me to call an external web service? I have tried sp_OACreate and run into memory leaks and have not had much luck with assemblies. See http://www.codeproject.com/script/comments/forums.asp?forumid=1725&select=2180035&df=100&msg=2180035
An existing SSRS 2005 data source at the root directory cannot be used by the SSRS SetItemDataSource web method.
Steps to reproduce: 1. On the machine running SSRS 2005, create a folder named Reports and upload an RDL file named "Existing.rdl" into that directory. For clarity the SSRS path to this report is /Reports 2. Set up a valid data source at the root directory (For illustrative purposes we'll name it DS). 3. Set up a web reference to a SQL Server Reporting Web Services 2005. e.g. http://localhost/reportserver/reportservice2005.asmx
3. Try to set the DS data source to the "Existing" report by calling the SetItemDataSource web method.

Hi all does anyone know where I can find more information on the Render method of the Reporting Services WS? Specifically there is a DeviceInfo parameter that you need to pass in and it is a string that is in an XML format but I cannot seem to find any documentation on the specifics of it. I have seen a few examples but no specifics.
I have built a WM5 SQLce2005 application using, primarily, table adapters which sparked a discussion whether it is more effiecent to use table adapters or use SQLce command execution with coding for a device.
Are there any papers / threads or thoughts as to the best access method to use?

Hi there, I have a problem accessing web service using Web service Task. I set up the task and can see methods available, but the result of execution is only that: <Result>The result is null. Either the result is null or the Web method returns void.</Result> I can connect and get data using C# application. The difference is that I use a token in connection there. What should I do with Web Service Task to fix it?
We are planning on using 2005 report services. Im wondering how I can feed reports to my asp.net web application that resides on a different machine.
The scenario is: user -> IIS web app -> report on sql
I guess the real question at this point for me, is if I have reports - can I have them cached in pdf format and then how are they accessed with a url ?
Please someone tell me, is it possbile to run Reporting service in MS-Access environment? I mean to say i have to use MS-Access as user interface to design and generate report (instead of Visual studio IDE) and the Sql server 2005 should be Report Server. If it is possible then how can i implement it.
I work at a place that does device testing where the test results are saved in a SQL database. I have an objective to create a plan for a pilot project to place the data on our intranet so our engineering dept can research test results.
I'm trying to find some group I can beg / borrow / pay to look at our schema and help me chart out what tools we should use and how much (ballpark) work is involved.
I'm a VB.NET developer. I did a tutorial on SQL Reporting Services and see potential there. I skimmed a tutorial on SQL Analysis services, and like the idea of being able to trend our data. But it's over my head at this point to get from where I'd like to be to what Microsoft tools to use and how to put them together.
I contacted one local DB/Developer shop and they wanted to bring in a team of engineers for two days and charge us $6000 for a "total solution". Instead of that, I'd like to maybe spend an hour on the phone and some emails to send a schema to someone who knew the tools inside/out and get a pretty good recommendation for a reasonable price.

Hi, when I am using the Report Manger to open a report, I am unable to acess the Database from my .Net application and vice versa - error report from MS Visual Web developer - "Operating system error 32: "32(The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.)".
I'm a SQL 2005 developer DBA with a 1.5 years experience with SQL Server 2005. It has been a while since I needed to use SSIS. I used it with no problems earlier this year when I was managing the team conversion to SQL Server 2005. Now it no longer appears on my START > Programs > SQL Server 2005 menus. I had to reinstall SQL Server 2005 and Visual Studio 2005 months ago and must have lost it then some how.
How do I get access to BIDS and SSIS again?

Also, in case it is relevant, I've NEVER installed SQL Server Express or had it installed. When I reinstalled, I installed SQL Server 2005 before VS 2005 since I know that has caused problems with some people.
I am trying to connect to a sql server from my asp.net application via windows authentication using the Network Service account. When I try to create a login for the ComputerNameNetwork Service account I get the following error.
I know I haven't mistyped it because I clicked the check names button and it showed as a valid id.
So what gives?

Hi I am developing a Windows Service product and use SQLCE 3.1 as data store, I found problem, that, when I inserted a record to sqlce data store from within service, I got an hidden window, the name is ms_sqlce_se_notify_wndproc, Could anyone has idea of how to disable this hidden window? Because my product is running as Windows Service, so this hidden window would be a serious security hole.
My SQL Server and MSDE, running under Windows XP, has been operating fault free since a year. Suddenly I cannot connect with the error "SQL Server Does Not Exist or Access Denied". I cannot find anything abnormal in the Client nor the SQL server. The only changes in my PC are done when installing the updates and the problem started after I installed Service Pack 2. Is this just a coincident or could there be some relation with the new Security centre in Service pack 2. I have compared with the same set up in another PC without Service Pack 2 and there everything works fine. Any suggestions please?
I removed MDS web UI which is working before and recreated. I enabled Window Authentication and Disabled Anonymous Authentication in IIS Authentication. I am getting Access denied when I view MDS web Site.

Looks like I need some additional adjustment on the authentication. But I do not know where and how.
I try to change the webservice identity but after changing the user identity of the application pool in iis ( I think this is the only way to change webservice identity) I got the error message service unavailable in IIS. With this I also couldn't start the webfront end any more. Switching back to NT-AuthorityNetwork Serive the web front end worked again.
I tryed to add
Code Snippet<identity impersonate="true" />
to the web config and I get the same Error on the webserver account...
It would be great if someone could help me to adjust the settings...
I have report that in access 97. When i run that report every morning, it's update technician time, mileage and money. I want that report to be update every min like real time report in sql reporting service.
The main thing i want to know is how to import report from access 97 to sql reporting service. I am not really familiar with reporting services in sql, can you be little more specific where to set up time? The report only update when i run query every morning. Queries and Tables are in access 97. When i tried to migrate tables with ssma, i wan not able to convert all of the query.
I'm trying to connect to a database using a service account that we got created. The ID is an AD account and was added to the db as such. When I try to connect to the database using the account with the password I get [login failed for domainid]. The DBA mentioned that its setup to use windows auth, however, I can't connect with this service account using windows Auth, due to I'm using to connect via code.
How can I connect to the database from my code using this ID?
I have the ID and pwd in my code to connect with, does the ID have to be setup differently in the Database?
Hi, I have a generally well working silent installer of SQL Server sp1, that installs a named of SQL Express then runs some create database scripts on it.
I have a customer for whom this fails. It appears that the SQL server service does not start. When I tell the client (non-computer literate!) to start it manually through Admin Tools>Service, a message appears saying "Access to the path denied", and seemingly doesn't specify the path of the denial.
Has anyone encountered this, or is anyone able to hazard a guess as to the cause of this issue.
I've followed all of the instructions in Donald Farmer's book to create a proxy to access my SSRS web service but keep getting the following error..."Type ReportingServices2005 is not defined"....on my Dim statement for the new ReportingServices2005.dll I created and all my methods (ListSubscriptions, etc.) are similarly flagged.
My brain is not yet .Net compliant so I probably screwed this up somewhere.
I am accessing my reports through one aspx page designed by me. in that i am using webservice to render the report and linking the url of the report to reportviewer

Hi! I understand that this topic is one of the most discussed topics ever. However i could not find the relevant information after going through (almost) all the posts so far. Hence this post. I am getting the 'SQL Server does not exist or access denied' error when I am trying to access SQL Server from a WINDOWS SERVICE. SQL Server and the Windows service are running on two different machines. (When they are on the same machine, it works). All the solutions I found so far are related to web apps. What should I do in the case of a windows service? My connection string uses SQL server authentication. (I tried with windows authentication. Its not working either.). Under what login does windows services run and how can I add it to valid SQL server logins?
I am trying to find a solution to my woes creating CLR activation stored procedure that references Enterprise library data access dlls. Does anyone know best practices to deploy .NET 2.0 assemblies as SQLCLR. I am using VS2005 SqlClrProject to deploy my .NET 2.0 assemblies to Sql Server and it fails with error such as "Assembly was not found in the sql catalog". If I manually try to load a referenced assembly within SqlServer by browsing to the target location, like for example, System.Management.dll it fails with similar error, trying to resolve its dependencies. Even if I manage to walk through the dependency tree and resolve it to the final dependent dll, I am only able to load it in "UNSAFE" mode. Any recommendations, suggestions and feedback are welcome.
I have installed sqlserver 2005 using the standard msdn universal installation discs on my laptop running vista business.

I have an almost virgin install of SQLExpres running on a WIN2K Pro system.
Have been able to create and connect db to Access 2000 without problem.
Now I wish to extend to remote connections. Using Surface Area Configuration tool, I changed Remote Connections to Local and Remote.
Whenever this setting contains TCP/IP and I try to restart the service I receive the following errors:
System Log:
The SQL Server (SQLEXPRESS) service terminated with service-specific error 10013.
Application Log:
Server TCP provider failed to listen on [ 'any' <ipv4> 0]. Tcp port is already in use.
TDSSNIClient initialization failed with error 0x271d, status code 0xa.
TDSSNIClient initialization failed with error 0x271d, status code 0x1.
Could not start the network library because of an internal error in the network library. To determine the cause, review the errors immediately preceding this one in the error log.
SQL Server could not spawn FRunCM thread. Check the SQL Server error log and the Windows event logs for information about possible related problems.
If I change back to Local Connections Only or Local and Remote using named pipes only, the service starts up again without a problem.
After five days of investigating, researching, reinstalling and waiting I have to ask for help.
I have a VM with SP2013 and SQL Server 2012 SP1. I have installed the powerpivot plugin SP1.But when I run the PowerPivot for SharePoint 2013 configuration tool.
Hello! I have the following problem. I developed CLR Stored Procedure "StartNotification" and deploy it on db. This sp calls external web service. Furthermore, this sp is called according with SQL Server Agent Job's schedule. On my PC SQL Server works under Local System account and this web service is called correctly (Executed as user: NT AUTHORITYSYSTEM). But on ther other server the following exception is raised during job running: Date 17.04.2007 16:42:10 Log Job History (FailureNotificationJob)
Step ID 1 Server MSK-CDBPO-01 Job Name FailureNotificationJob Step Name MainStep Duration 00:00:00 Sql Severity 16 Sql Message ID 6522 Operator Emailed Operator Net sent Operator Paged Retries Attempted 0
Message Executed as user: CORPmssqlserver. A .NET Framework error occurred during execution of user defined routine or aggregate 'StartNotification': System.Security.SecurityException: Request for the permission of type 'System.Net.WebPermission, System, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089' failed. System.Security.SecurityException: at System.Security.CodeAccessSecurityEngine.Check(Object demand, StackCrawlMark& stackMark, Boolean isPermSet) at System.Security.CodeAccessPermission.Demand() at System.Net. The step failed.
What is the reason of this behaviour? Unfortunately I do not have direct access to this server. I have the following guesses: 1) CORPmssqlserver may have not enough permissions to call web service 2) Something wrong with SQL Server account's permissions 2) Something wrong with SQL Server Agent account's permissions I will take the will for the deed. Thanks.
We are using the whole BI-package from Microsoft - from SQL, DTS-package,Raporting Service and Analyze Service.
It should be very helpful to be able to create a metadata databases where you could find all releations between different objects (tables,views,reports,cubes,DTS-package,Databases.
Just to get answer for: 'where is view xxx used', 'what are Report xxx depending upon'.
While everything exists in different SQL databases it should possible to do.
