I created a report in SSRS, and deployed it. I have created security where when users run the on demand report, it will prompt them for a username and password. I went to the properties of the report then Execution, and tried to set up report execution snapshot and got an error 'Credentials used to run this report are not stored.' I get the same error if I go to History and try to select any of the options there.

When I create a new report subscription in report manager, I got this error
Credentials used to run this report are not stored
any idea?
Thanks,
Jone
I am getting the standard "Subscriptions cannot be created because the credentials used to run the report are not stored -".I tried to store them in the Stored Data Source in the Visual Studio Project and then deployed. I cannot find in any documentation a reference where to go to STORE CREDENTIALS for a Report Server subscription. I would really appreciate any help on this. I did look at the existing threads, but they don't specifically address where to create the credentials. Thanks for any help you can provide.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI am have a few reports built in Report Builder and obviously using Report Models. All these report models are using a share data source. When I try enable to enable chache or creating subscription I get and error that "Credentials used not stored".
I thought well let me store the credentials for the data source used by the model used by the report on the server. I still get the same error.
I tried to create a custom data source for the report but there is not option for connection string to connect to Report Server Model. We have "Microsoft SQL SEVER", "OLE DB", "Microsoft SQL Analysis Services", "ORACLE", "ODBC", "XML", "SQP Netweaver BI" and "Hyperion Essabe"
if I understand this right to create cache or subscription I must store the credentials for each report making shared Data source concept redundant. Also I cannot create a connection string to connect to Report Server Model.
I would greatly appreciate if anyone can tell me how to enable cache or subscriptions for report that are built on report models using shared data source.
Hi i have created serveral reports in sql and uploaded it to report manager. We have an issue here. We have 5 departments at our place. Each of the department has 5 reports. We want the department for instance Administration to open/view only their reports and no others. How is this done "Credentials supplied by the user running the report" Basically if i give sa and sa as username and password, i will be able to enter any department reports but i want something like sa say 'admin' this user will only open his reports and no one else. there is also security for the folder. I could clump all the reports instead of type do it by department. So all admin reports in one folder and only admin should have access and no one else say if there is another user manager he cant access it. Do you have any idea on how to go abt this situation?

I have implemented a ReportServerCredentials class in my code and the NetworkCredentials property is set up to pass a domain account. Usually this works fine but occasionaly the ReportViewer stops sending credentials to the report server resulting in the following error:
The request failed with HTTP status 401: Unauthorized.
The IIS logs on the ReportServer don't show any credentials being passed in on these requests.
When this happens in debug mode in Visual Studio, I usually have to create a new project and migrate my code into it to get it to start working again. When it happens on the web server, it seems to correct itself after a while.
It seems like this must be a bug in the ReportViewer or perhaps in IIS. Does anyone know of a work around or a patch?
Thanks.
Hello,
I've been working on an application that uploads an RDL to Reporting Services (through the SOAP webservice method CreateReport) programmatically. I'm having difficulty setting up the data source properties for my uploaded report. In particular the Data Source Credentials property.
The datasource for my report doesn't require credentials. By default after I upload the report to Reporting Services, the Data Source Credentials property is set to "Credentials supplied by the user running the report". How do I go about setting the Data Source Credentials property to "Credentials are not required" programmatically through the webservice?
Thanks in advance
For credentials, I have a Shared Data Source that "uses a specific user name and password".
When I open the data source's RDS file, I observed that the credentials are not stored in the RDS file.
Where are the credentials for the data sources stored?
It has to be stored somewhere. When I close and reopen the solution, the credentials for the data source are still intact.
I have a database script that uses the extended stored procedures sp_OACreate and sp_OCMethod to execute an .exe file. The .exe file is located on the same machine as the SQL Server. At this time it does nothing but log the name of the user calling it.
When I execute the script from Management Studio (logged in as myself) the user being logged as the caller of the .exe is still NT AUTHORITYSYSTEM. I don't know why NT AUTHORITYSYSTEM is the caller, cause the SQL Server service runs under another domain account.
I have tried playing around with EXECUTE AS USER but no matter what, the caller of the .exe is always logged as NT AUTHORITYSYSTEM.
Are there any way I can pass my credentials to the executable that I am calling from the T-SQL script?
I can't seem to get this to work and have to resort to a custom connection for each report in Server Manager. The problem with that is that I have to re-do it every time I re-deploy the reports. Is there a secret to this that I have not found yet?

I'm trying to use stored credentials to enable caching. I've created a special windows user account with minimum permissions for just this task, and once set up, it works great (almost).
I can update the shared data source using SQL Mgt Studio or directly via the Report Manager to use a set of -windows- stored credentials. But I don't seem to be able to do the same via VS.NET 2005. I can only store -SQL- credentials, which I have no need to enable and no desire to add to my surface area.
The problem lies that every time I deploy any report that using that data source (which is nearly all of them), the data source is re-published, which wipes out the stored credentials and caching immediately stops.
I've tried messing with the XML directly, with no luck, and changing assorted advanced settings, but nothing seems to stick.
Obviously I can manually update the credentials each time I deploy something, but surely it seems that there must be a better way. Is there a way to either set the DS to use stored windows credentials, or just plain prevent the deployment of the DS every time a dependent report is published?
Suggestions?

Hello....
I have a stored procedure which needs to access the files on a remote server... a server which does not belong to the same domain as the SQL Server 2005 machine.

Hi
Does anyone know the correct syntax to run a xp_cmdshell command using different sql server credentials?
Thanks
On to the next understanding topic. I understand the concept of credentials and why they are needed with the isolation of machine admin authority and running a SQL Server instance. I had a question on the purpose of the system credentials.
##MS_SQLResourceSigningCertificate## is the credential utilized by the instance itself to gain access to Windows for such things as reading and writing to database files, network stacks, writing to the error logs/event logs, etc. ##MS_AgentSigningCertificate## is the credential that is used by SQL Server Agent for accessing any necessary Windows resources.
##MS_SQLReplicationSigningCertificate## is used only by the replication engine to allow it to access Windows resources.
##MS_SQLAuthenticatorCertificate## is used during the authentication process for SQL Logins to provide authenticator services and is also used to access the Windows security API.
Each of the credentials is a certificate which is loaded into the instance and you can find the corresponding certificate within the data folder for the instance. I'm assuming that a mechanism is already in place to prevent someone from mucking with the certificates on the OS to gain access back into the SQL Server by comparing the signature already stored within the instance with the signature of the certificate on the OS. (This is also part of the larger discussion of certificate use within SQL Server itself and explains why you can't change the service account/password using the Service Control Applet.)
Did I get that correct, am I way off base, or is this one of those "no comment" items?
I'm trying to create a login screen that will verify a user's username and password from within a SQL table. If the credentials are found in the table, they should be sent to a Main Menu screen. If the credentials are not found, I will throw a message on the screen. Does anyone have code to accomplish this? I am at a total standstill.
Thanks,

I'm using SQL Server 2000 Reporting Services.
I'm trying to create a subscription to automatically generate a report daily and put a resulting pdf into a folder on the drive. Users will then receive an email notification with a link to the report so they can just click on it and see the report.
When creating the subscription, I am prompted for a set of "credentials used to access the file share" (user name and password). But I don't want my users to have to supply any credentials, I just want them to click on the link and get the report. Is there a way to disable the requirement for the credentials?
Thank you.
Get this when selecting parameter value in Report Manager
Report is working fine in preview
Up to me, it has nothing to do with credentials
I have some analysis server reports.
I have a single value report parameter, the report runs fine with the default value, when I select another value than the default one, I get above message immediately.
I got the error since I rebuild the report with SP2 CTP.
Strange thing is that the other single value parameter of the report works fine (year)
And that I get the error also with other reports, and on the same dimension (Organisation)
And that I do not have the error when I change the parameter to multi-value (but as the report is not written for multiple values...)
MDX queries are as follows:

Discovered something else that is very strange, you change the value of the parameter, you get the error, you hit the back button, and you can run the report with the new parameter
Did one more test, changed the order of the parameters, is now going wrong on the other parameter, Year.
So, it is always on the first parameter.
Correction, I have put a multi-value parameter as first, I still have the problem, it is always on the first single value parameter
I have the same problem.

I have created several reports in SQL Server 2005 reporting services and I am viewing those reports in my C# application using a report viewer control. I want to pass the credentials for each report through my applications. I do not want to use any web service.
Is it possible???
Any help will be appreciated!!!

Hi,
because my package does not run with SQL-Server-Agent, but without problems if started by "hand", I created a new credential which contains the information needed for the package. I did this as described on: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms190703.aspx .
After that i tried to create an proxy account, but when I chose the created credential, Management Studio says "Der Proxy "[name_of_credential] ist kein gültiger Windows-Benutzer(Microsoft SQL Server, Fehler: 14529)". This means something like: "This Proxy is not a valid windows-user. Error: 14529".
Any hints how to use a credential that is not a windows-user?

Hi,
I'd like to programme the execution of a report through the execution property option. However, when I try to do it a message error appears related to credentials of the datasource.
The present action is impossible to complete, because the credentials of the user datasource needed to execute this report are not stored on report server database.
I've tried all possible combinations.
Any idea?
Thanks.
Hi everyone....
I have made a CLR stored procedure which goes to a shared folder on a remote computer. I am having permission problems when executing the stored procedure. (In case anyone is wondering, I am using the .NET SYSTEM.IO class)
I have done the following:
CREATE CREDENTIAL myuser
WITH IDENTITY = 'mydomainmyuser', SECRET = 'some56*Z';
CREATE LOGIN sam WITH PASSWORD = 'meowPw!a3';
ALTER LOGIN sam WITH CREDENTIAL = myuser;
...(other SQL so that SAM can execute the SP)
Now, I login to SQL Server using the new login, and when I try to execute the CLR stored procedure, I get "unknown username or bad password.".
I know 100% for sure that the account in the "MYUSER" credential has access. Is there something else I need to do?
Hello friends,
In my web application I have saved my connection string into web.config file. Now I have to send this web application to the client in the form of web set up. The issue is that on the client side, user credentials for the database will be different. So can we do some setings that the web application whenever will run should ask for the server name, username & Password. If this can be done then the application can be run anywhere considering all compatibilities.
Please let me know how this can be done.
Thanks & RegardsGirish Nehte
I have developed an asp.net, vb.net web app and have integrated reporting services. Right now I am using url access but am not to crazy about showing the parameters in the querystring. I am using a dynamic stored procedure to get client data. I would like to use the rs web service to programatically set the parameters and send them invisably to the web service. Since the web app is not using windows authentication I would like to pass the parameters using a hard coded account that has been set up with browse privilages in the report manager. Is it possible to hard code the credentials that are sent to the reporting service instead of the System.Net.CredentialsCache.DefaultCredentials? The report returns a bar graph which I am hoping to display on the page. Reading some posts about some problems returning images I might be posting some more questions.
Are there any good walkthroughs or code examples using reporting services web service other than MSDN's limited supply?
Thank you for your time!

In the SSMS, is it possible to allow a user to log into the DB engine using alternate Domain credentials. There are fields that allow you to log in with SQL credentials but I don't see a way to do it with Doman credentials. It's always passthrough authentication.
