Creating Report On Local XML File
Jan 4, 2007
Hey All,
I am attempting to create a report on SQL Reporting Services that uses a local XML file as its datasource. Although i did not find a way to directly do this, I found an MSDN article that walks a person through on how to use a report parameter to paste in your XML data from the page. When I set up the report in this way, I get an "Invalid URI" error when I go to the preview tab.
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa964129.aspx
What would be the best way for me to use an XML file as a datasource using reporting services? Is there a way that I can use a local file and use a parameter to point at that file?
Any info, links, tuts, etc. would help. Thanks!
Nathan

I am not sure if this is possible or not, but I have to at least ask.
I have a SQL Reporting Services project that has a QA server version and then a Production server version. So when requested changes are made to the reports, I make the changes in Visual Studio and then push to QA. After the changes have been tested and approved, I then push the changes to the Production server.
I have come across an issue, where requested changes were made in Visual Studio (a lot of changes), and pushed to QA. The users now have changed their minds and they want instead to stay with what is in production. So, I am looking for a way to recover the report file on the production web server, bring it back into my visual studio project to replace the report that I had changed.
Is this possible, or will I have to start over and step one and reverse the changes in Visual Studio.
Let me know.
Thank you,
T.J.

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.

Hi all,
I'm having a problem right now. I'm trying to create an offline copy of a database(live) in my local machine. The database is maintained in a different server machine and I want a copy of the particular DB as an offline copy.
The problem is there's DTS feature in SQL Server 2000 but I don't find any such tool in SQL Server 2005 edition. Can anyone please guide me on how to do this process?
Thanks & Regards,

Hi All ...
I'm setting up replication for the 1st time following the steps in the Books Online to get it up and running:
ms-help://MS.SSCE.v31.EN/ssmmain3/html/5a82aa7a-41a3-4246-a01a-2b1e4b2fdfe9.htm.
Anyhow, I get down to the section labeled - Create a new SQL Server Compact Edition database and am having a problem. I open SQL Server Management Studio as instructed. I click Connect and then am supposed to select SQL Server Compact Edition - yet can't find that option.
And, yes, I've installed Compact Edition on my development laptop. So, how do I get this option so that I can create the local DB for Compact Edition and continue development?
UPDATE:
Ok, duh moment, I have SQL Server Management Studio Express loaded on my laptop, so did not have the option. I've attempted to uninstall SQL Server Management Studio Express and install the full version from the SQL Server CDs. However, when I go to install the full version it tells me that the management tools are already installed and won't let me install anything. So, how do I get around this so that I can install full version of SQL Server Management Studio and then get the option to connect to the SQL Server Compact Edition?
Any help will be appreciated.
UPDATE 2:
Ok, figured it out. You can't just uninstall SQL Server Management Studio express, you must go in to Add/Remove Programs, SQL Server 2005, Change. Then select to uninstall the Workstation components. Then you can go use the SQL Server install discs to install the full blown SQL Server Management Studio along with the other Workstation components.
Thanks ...

Hi,
Is it possible to turn a server report created using report builder (with all the smdl and dsv stuff) into a report
that is viewable using the Reportviewer ASP.Net control in _local_ mode? I need this because I'm trying to replace
the datasource used in creating the report by another one for viewing the report.
Thanks in advance,

In my script task I have the following code. The task I'm trying to accomplish is:
If the filename on FTP can be found in the local archive folder of e: drive then show message "FileAlreadyThere" (I will ultimatley change it to do nothing); if the filename on FTP cannot be found in the local archive folder of e: drive then transfer the file to the local package folder on d: drive.
While the script task is executing I was watching it closely, but the problem i saw is that:
If some files on FTP are already in local archive folder and some are not, then it the files which are already in the archive folder are dumped to the package folder; then after that the files which are not in the archive folder are then dumped to the package folder. But I only want the new files on FTP to be transferred to the package folder for further processing.
Then after this is finished, I saw all the files in the package folder are refreshed one after another, after the first round of refresh the second round starts, after the second round finishes it then stopped. I saw it refreshes itself because the 'Date Modified' of the file changes. And I saw the script task turned green.
I don't see how the code below produced this result. Something is wrong in the logic of the loop? Anyone has any idea why it's behaving the way it is now? And how to change the code to accomplish what I want? Thanks a lot!!

I am able to use user data types for creating local temporally tables in store procedures, but I receive an error at run-time about the user data type.
Msg 2715, Level 16, State 7, Procedure SP_SAMPLE_TEST, Line 4
Column, parameter, or variable #1: Cannot find data type D_ORDER_NUMBER.
The same user data type is used as parameters in several other store procedures, and they work perfect. It is also used in several table definitions.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks in advance to any one who can help me with this problem.

New ssrs istall. I think they loaded sp2. It's a cluster, but ssrs was not clustered (I think)
When I attempt to open report manager, i just get
SQL Server Reporting Services
Home
with no option for creating a folder etc, like i have on development
When I attempt to deploy to ther server I get :
Deploying to http://amsqlclusterxx/reportserver/
Error rsItemAlreadyExists : The item '/Retailer' already exists.
How do I create an ssrs reports folder?
Also, and this is strange, but in vs.net I had to create a new shared datasource after removing the old one on the report with the same name. The report renders fine when I do an f5 pointing to a new datasource, but I no longer have the RUN "!" icon available while in the data tag to run my query. Why is this?
Thanks for any help or information.

For a database, we have 4 data files in a particular file group and the file sizes are almost 70 GB each.
Do I come across any performance issues if I create/pre-allocate an additional data file in the same file group so that the existing files don't grow too much?

I cannot find anything that would suggest it is possible to use a cascading style sheet when formatting data elements within a local report (RDLC). We created an HTML report using CSS and now want to generate the same report using the Report Viewer control along with our defined styles.
Any ideas?

I get this error for all but one of the reports in a solution when trying to preview the reports. The query behind the reports work, and the published side of things works fine. I blew away all the rdl.data files in the directory (found that tip in another forum) -- the working report rebuilds the rdl.data file, but the rest continue to fail with the same error. Everything worked fine before the weekend, and I'm the only one who works on the application. The extracted SQL tables which are input to the reports have had data added to them, but I've not requested reporting that would have hit the new data (except for the one report that still works). Any ideas would be greatly welcome. Thanks in advance.

Hello,
I recently read the following book:
http://www.amazon.com/Microsoft-Server-2005-Reporting-Services/dp/0072262397/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/104-5275187-2065567?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1194662002&sr=8-1
It was excellent.
I was hoping to find an example of the following:
My company has a desktop application with a local database (sql server 2k express) I would like to be able to have local reports and if the user likes the report they are viewing, the user could "publish" that report to the server. Since the database is local, the report data source cannot point to that database. So, it would publish the report AND the data in it.
For this use case, what is the recommended strategy of moving the data with the report? Would i create a small xml file and then dynamically build a datasource that points to that xml? Any best practices advice?
If i could find an example would be fantastic.
Thanks for your help,
Dan

Okay. Simple request. I have a local report in my VS2005 project. I want to embed my company logo in the header. How do I do this?? When I put an image item on the page it wants me to put something in the value for this? I've tried sending through a dataset but SSRS can't load data set information into the header! Why is this so complicated? I don't want to embed a dynamic database image, just a static image that will be embedded in my program. Any help on this would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Jon

I run my reports in local mode and do something like this :
Code Snippet
//Local Processing mode for Reports
reportViewer.ProcessingMode = ProcessingMode.Local;
// Set RDL file based on handout/grid selected
if (gridRadioButton.Checked)
{
reportViewer.LocalReport.ReportPath = "Grid.rdlc";
}
else
{
//Handout
reportViewer.LocalReport.ReportPath = "Handout.rdlc";
}
//Refresh the report in order to show it to the user.
reportViewer.RefreshReport();
The problem is that both handout and grid is diiferent, Say User Selects the grid once it always shows the grid report. Even second time you change to handout still it shows the same Grid format and I debugged it and it picks the new report path but doesn't help? The application needs to be rerun to fix it.
Can anyone explain what is causing this and how to get rid of it.
Thanks,

Good Afternoon,
I created a 2005 SSRS SP2 report (.rdl) last week. Today I installed the SQL 2005 SP2 tools on three of my co-workers' computers. Two can access the Solution/Project/Report in BIDS without issue. The last can open the Solution/Project/Report and can run see both the data and layout tabs. When she attempts to click the preview tab, however, the following error occurs:
An error occurred during local report processing.
The definition of the report '/ReportName' is invalid.
An unexpected error occurred in the Report Processing.
Cannot execute a program. The command being executed was "C:WINNTMicrosoft.NETFrameworkv2.0.50727vbc.exe" /noconfig @"C:Documents and SettingsuserLocal SettingsTempwnlnvzev.cmdline".
The portion in blue changes each time we attempt to access the preview pane. I have removed the .data file suggested in other threads, but that did not work. I also ran iisreset.exe as posted in another thread and that did not work either.
All versions of BIDS/SQL were installed from the same media in the same manner. Please help.

My report worked fine for a while, but suddenly I started getting the following errors for Preview:
An error occurred during local report processing.
An error has occurred during report processing.
Index was outside the bounds of the array.
I restarted VS, then rebooted my machine and the problem persists. Everything including the report posted to the server works fine. It is just the Preview of this report does not work any more. Preview of other reports work fine.
Any tip to resolve this problem would be greatly appreciated.

Hi all,
what are the minimum required permissions for being allowed to deploy a report? When I try to deploy a report in BIDS I get the error message that my user has not sufficient rights for doing so.
Some key data for my configuration:
Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition with Service Pack 1
SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition with Service Pack 1
I'm not a local administrator, but I have administration rights for SQL Server and Analysis Services
I'm in the Reporting Services' system administrator and system user groups
I can access http://localhost/Reports, but not http://localhost/ReportServer
I have access to the directory (incl. subdirectories) MSSQL.2, but not to MSSQL.1MSSQL and MSSQL3Reporting Services
I can't run the Reporting Services Configuration Tool (see http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=1565766&SiteID=1)
I can't connect to Reporting Services in SQL Server Management Studio
My question is (as I have already mentioned in the beginning): what are the minimum rights the IT administrator has to assign to my user so that I'll be able to deploy reports? Giving me local administrator rights is not possible.
Thanx in advance and kind regards,
Gerald
Update:
In the meantime I have found out, that I'm most probably not a member of the Publisher role. But although I am in the System Administrator role I cannot assign myself to this role. When going to http://localhost/Reports the required links are just not visible. Is this because I'm not a member of the groups SQLServer2005ReportServerUser$... and SQLServer2005ReportingServicesWebServerUser$... ?

I have a fairly large DTS package which processes a large amount of data and outputs it to a series of tables. Currently I am saving the package as a local package, but I want to save it as a file to make migrating to different servers easier for the people who will be moving it. My question is, Can I run the package as a file without saving it as a local package on the server? And if so, are there any good examples of how to do it out there?
