Change Default Zoom Setting For Reports Viewed On Report Manager Web Site
Sep 14, 2007
I've tried changing the default zoom setting by editing the RSReportServer.config file to include
<Configuration>
<DeviceInfo>
<Zoom>Page Width</Zoom>
</DeviceInfo>
</Configuration>
under the
<Render>
<Extension Name = "HTML4.0" etc.
However, all reports still show up with the zoom setting at 100% on the toolbar.
I stop and restart the Report Server Service and it comes up OK so I know my XML syntax is cool. What am I doing wrong?
This is on a 2005 Report Server. Reports are built in VS2005 Report Designer and deployed to the Report Server directly. Reports are accessed via IE7 browser.
Hi there! My provider does not yet support SQL Server 2005, they are still on SQL Server 2000. I put together a very basic login page, but it is crashing everytime I access it because of this problem, and sadly I am not advanced enough as yet to know how to remedy it! Can you help? Here is the error page, some of it; - Any ideas gratefully received! Russ.

I have couple of Web pages linking to my RDLs using report viewer Web controls. I have no problem running and viewing them in VS2005 debug mode and report manager until I published them to local folder and set the local folder as an application on my IIS7. When running the published version of the Web pages, all my calendar image buttons (which happen to be part of the report parameter fields) turned to red 'X':
When clicking the View Report button, the animated progress icon not appearing at all. Before the occurance of this problem, I did face the problem whereby the 'NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE' does not have enough permission to view the report. After referring to some threads, I finally be able to get rid of this error by assigning Browser role to 'NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE' from the report manager. I wonder could this solution be related to the problem that I'm facing now. Any help would be appreciated.
Installed SQL Server 2008 with Reporting Services to a Windows Server 2008 box. Tried to open the Report Manager and had no tabs and no Site Settings link - just a blank home page. I am logged onto the server with local administrator rights, so it shouldn't be a permissions issue.
Thinking the installation was bad (IIS was not installed before installing SSRS), I uninstalled and re-installed SSRS after setting up IIS 7 on the server. Still the same issue - just a blank home page in report manager with no ability to add users or assign roles or see anything except the links for "Home", "My Subscriptions", and "Help".
I've created a report in SSRS 2005, where one of the fields is using 'Jump to URL'. I made that field the color blue and underlined it so the users can see it's a link.
How do I change the color of the field/link to a different color once it's viewed so the users know they already selected that field?
Is it possible to establish a set of default report and report body properties, perhaps in an ini file of some sort so that upon creating a new project and adding a new report item the developer does not have to go through the process of setting up all the interactive sizes, margins, paper sizes, etc each and every time? We have an established header that we incorporate on all reports and while in transition to the new Reporting Services it was my hope of finding something will create the first set of default conditions to help us automate the process just a bit.
Does sombody have experience on dynamically set or change the default value of a report parameter?
Assuming: report parameters p1, p2, p3, p4 have been set up(and have their default value 'all') with the creation of the report1; report browseing is through reportviewer that embedded in the web application; datasource is datacube
What I want to do: based on the login user of the my web application, set default value of p1 as the user's username.
What I did is:
Microsoft.Reporting.WebForms.ReportParameter reportParam = new Microsoft.Reporting.WebForms.ReportParameter("P1","Mary");
I am working on reports in SSRS 2008 (not R2)... There are some reports with parameters that are hidden when the report is accessed through normal URL using ReportViewer.asx..The thing is that these hidden parameters need to be visible when the report is accessed using SSRS Report Manager.
i have installed SQL RS and have a directory listing in the Reports directory via my browser. CAn anyone tell me which file / setting needs tweaking please?
When runing a report in Report Manager I can click on an item and SQL Server provides the logic to drill down into the underlying tables. I can find no button to go back. The only way I've found to go back is to click a different tab at the top of the screen (History or something) then click View again and you get the original report. In designer there's a back button. Is there not such a button when running a saved report????
When we move reports from one folder to another in Report Manager we have to delete the report in the destination folder first before moving it over if a version is already there. If not we get the error that an item with that name already exists. Is there a way around this? Is there a setting which will allow over-write of a report?
Hello, when I log onto Report Manager web server using Windows Authentication, I need this user to be directed to a default sub folder.
For example: if I have folder A and sub folder 1 and 2. I need to be able to log in and be directed to sub folder 1. I was able to set up view role and access folder A. But then I need to click on folder 1 to view / create my reports.
I have deployed reports on to the report server. When I try to open the reports from report server, I get the error," Value does not fall within the expected range." This error message appears as soon as I click on any report on the report manager.
Hello all, When I print the reports ( or export to PDF) in Report Manager, my every alternate page is blank? If the report is just one page report, I get second page as blank when I print or export. The report prints in Landscape format( which should be fine given 8.5 inch height and 11 inch width). I have played with the interactive Height and other height parameters but with no luck. My current settings in the rdl file is: <BottomMargin>0.5in</BottomMargin> <RightMargin>0.5in</RightMargin> <PageWidth>11in</PageWidth> ... <Width>11in</Width> <InteractiveHeight>1.5in</InteractiveHeight> <Language>en-US</Language> <TopMargin>0.5in</TopMargin> <PageHeight>8.5in</PageHeight>
I would highly appreciate any suggestions. Thanks Phewa Taal
Hello, I need to be able to view and save reports using Report Manager. However, I do not want some users the ability to upload files (need to prevent virus or bad files). It appears I need to select manage reports from the role definition in order for a user to save reports. but then i get the upload file link as well. Is there a way to manage reports but prevent upload file link?
what is MS's strategy for having two off the shelf ways of getting at reports? In a typical company, is the average non administrator type user getting at his reports via one, the other, both?
I'm having a strange problem with SSRS 2005 that I'm hoping someone might be able to help with. I've reinstalled SSRS (multiple times) and even reinstalled IIS hoping to resolve the problem, but it still exists.
The problem is that trying to view a report via Report Manager is failing. All other operations within Report Manager work fine (browsing folders and report lists, viewing folder and report properties, changing properties, setting permissions, etc.) Only trying to view reports fails. Whenever I try to view a report, I get the following error:
The request failed with HTTP status 401: Access Denied.
I can view reports via other methods just fine. For example, if I browse to the http://localhost/reportserver URL directly, I can view any report just fine. And if I connect to SSRS via SSMS, I can view reports there as well. I believe that both of those methods use a direct reportserver URL versus using the http://localhost/Reports/Pages/Report.aspx page within the Report Manager virtual directory.
Here's a bit of configuration information that may or may not be helpful to someone:
1. This is on a laptop running Windows XP SP2 (32-bit). SSRS (and all SQL Server components) are installed as default instances and SQL Server SP2 has been applied to everything.
2. All of the latest updates and fixes for Windows, SQL Server, Office, etc. have been installed via Windows Update.
3. This laptop is a member of a domain, but I am typically not connected to the domain (not in the office very often). I am, however, logging into the laptop using a domain account (with cached credentials). Local user accounts are frowned on by the domain and IT administrators involved (except for running local services). My domain account has full admin permissions within Windows and within SQL everywhere.
4. As far as I can tell, everything with regards to IIS, asp.net, and SSRS are configured correctly (ASPNET account seems to be set up correctly, all SQL services including the SSRS service are running under a local account with admin permissions, the Reports and ReportServer virtual directories in IIS are set to use Integrated Security, etc.)
I'm not an expert on SSRS, so this one has me stumped. I've reviewed all of the config files that I can think of looking at for SSRS and I've looked at the SSRS logs. Nothing really jumps out at me in terms of changes that might be required (and the SSRS logs don't really say much other than repeating the error). For example, I see the following lines in the ReportServerWebApp__xxx.log file:
aspnet_wp!ui!8!5/14/2008-13:00:17:: e ERROR: The request failed with HTTP status 401: Access Denied. aspnet_wp!ui!8!5/14/2008-13:00:17:: e ERROR: HTTP status code --> 500 -------Details-------- System.Net.WebException: The request failed with HTTP status 401: Access Denied.
Anyone have any ideas? I've searched Google for quite a while trying to find something that would help me figure this out, but thus far I've not been able to come up with anything. Any help (or pointers to something on teh web somewhere that I might have missed) would be appreciated!!
I looked online and couldn't find anything to help me make this change. I want to change the default URL for reporting services to another url. Is this possible? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
I have installed sql server 2005 along with reporting services... though i am able to design report using business intelligence studio... i am unable to access the report server.... while trying to start the reporting services configuration manager it says no report server found on the specified machine...Invalid Namespace... the installation is local ...
Due to this problem inspite of designing the entire report i am unable to deploy it on the web..since it is asking for a report server...
I'm a newbie to Reporting Services so please forgive my ignorance...
I've recently installed SQL Server Express 2005 with Reporting Services on my Vista Business Notebook (with no network connections) and have installed VS C# Express as well as the Business Intelligence Studio to create reports.
My C# application can connect to SQL Server fine, however, the reports I created with Business Studio refuses to deploy to the server due to the following reason:
"The permissions granted to user 'localhostJenny' are insufficient for performing this operation".
I find this odd as I've been able to deploy reports on my other Windows XP machine (with SQL Server Express) no probs at all. Additionally, I cannot see the 'Site settings' link within Report Manager (Web) that I'd normally get with an admin account (i.e. on my Win. XP machine). Various sources indicate that my account has insufficient access rights to view this.
Having browsed through seemingly endless blogs and forums, I suspect that my local account has not been configured to access the Report Manager web client to publish, manage and administer the site.
I have tried the surface area tool for SQL Server, but I suspect that this is relevant only to SQL Server DB access and management. Adding an administrator here does nothing.
The question is, how can I grant access to myself (local account) to allow me to publish reports via business studio, and at the same time - administer Report Manager Site Settings - on my vista notebook??
I would be extremely grateful for any help on this matter - I've tried ceaseless reinstallations, but to no avail!
I am new at using Report Service and after successful install the SQL SERVER EXPRESS ADVANCE SP2 and configured the ReportIing Services Configuration. I try to launch the report manager by typing http://localhost/Reports I get the following error:
The report server is not responding. Verify that the report server is running and can be accessed from this computer.
I've read many forums but I couldn't resolve my problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
By the way, I am running IIS 7 on Window Vista Business Ed. & SQL Server Express Ed. I am not sure if this make any differences.
I have 3 SSRS 2014 (Dev, UAT and Prod). I would like to change background colors of each environment and customize the title 'SQL Server Reporting Services' to ' SSRS Development'.
I prefer to implement both, a background color change and a title change. The reason for this is to clarify to end users which environment they are working with.
Where can I make those minimal changes in SSRS 2014.
My web site times out when I run a SQL Stored procedure that takes 47 seconds. I thought that I had prevented this by setting time limits to 600 seconds for both the SQL connection and httpRuntime My web.config contains: -<add name="ConnectionString" connectionString="Data Source=xxxx;Initial Catalog=gdb;Persist Security Info=True;User ID=xxxxx;Password=xxxxx;connection timeout=600" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient"/>and <httpRuntime maxRequestLength="8192" executionTimeout="600"/> Is there anywhere else that I should specify this larger timeout limit? Thanks, Robert.
