Custom Data Extension - Security Error On Report Server
Mar 21, 2007
I have written CDE to retrieve and process data before generating the report. It works very well inside VS.Net. However, when deployed to the report server I get the following error
An error has occurred during report processing. Cannot create a connection to data source 'CallsTaken'. Request for the permission of type 'System.Security.Permissions.SecurityPermission, mscorlib, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089' failed.
I have added appropriate CAS entry in rssrvpolicy.config file as following
<CodeGroup
class="UnionCodeGroup"
version="1"
Name="CustomDataExtensionCodeGroup"
Description="Code group for the Custom Data Extension"
I'm trying to deploy Reporting Services on an Internet-facing web server using a custom security extension (forms authentication). We will be putting Report Manager on the Web Server outside of the firewall, and Report Server on another machine inside the firewall. When testing the solution in a development environment with Report Manager and Report Server on the same box, the solution works fine.
When testing it using the Internet-facing environment described above, it almost works but there seems to be an issue with the authentication cookie that is generated. Here's what happens:
1. User enters credentials on UILogon.aspx and submits form. 2. In the code-behind, LogonUser() is called through a web service proxy and the authentication cookie is returned successfully. The code used here to set the cookie is the same code used in the Forms Authentication sample that ships with RS2005. 3. The user is redirected to Folder.aspx, and the request hangs for a while, and eventually kicks you back out to UILogon.aspx, as if it lost the authentication cookie. When doing a trace on the HTTP header, the cookie is still there.
Is there anything special I need to do to make the Report Server "see" the cookie when I have Report Manager and Report Server on different machines?
I am having a question as stated in the subject title, yes, when we want to deploy scorecards to reporting services, as the prerequisite, how can we install and register the scorecard custom data processing extension with the Microsoft reporting services server?
I am looking forward to hearing from you shortly and thank you again.
The custom security extension generates the following error, when try to access Report Manager. The specifications are as follows. 1. Its 64-bit SQL Server (Reporting Services) and installed as default instance. 2. The Report Server is accessible programmatically. I can publish, view reports without problems, but Report Manager gives an error. 3. Another instance (named instance) of Reporting Services with the same custom security extension on same server is working fine. Report Manager opens up without problems. 4. Both the instances working fine since 3 installation and configuration (3 months back). Now, only the Report Manager of the default instance is not openeing up.

The service is running fine. Any suggestions/pointers would be greatly appreciated.
I follow the instructions here to deploy the sample security extension: http://www.codeplex.com/MSFTRSProdSamples/Wiki/View.aspx?title=SS2005!Security%20Extension%20Sample&referringTitle=Home
After I have configure the config files and created the "UserAccounts" database I restart the IIS and tried to connect to Report Manager at http://localhost/Reports
This is the error i got: The report server is not responding. Verify that the report server is running and can be accessed from this computer.
I went to Services and saw my Reporting Services is stopped. Tried to start Reporting Services and it timed out.
My application is currently integration with reporting services using custom security extension. I have my own USER and ROLE database to determine who/which role can access certain reports.
My question is how to give access a report to be viewable by everyone? I dont want to assign all users or all roles to achieve this.
The other thing that I found out is, let say I change the name one of the user/role. Because of this, the authorization will fail because the old name/role is not in the DB anymore. Is this expected? or is there a workaround it?
I am using Custom Data Processing Extension to call a stored procedure. Iam getting following error when creating a dataset in report designer using the extension. I wrote the code in c#.
could not update a list of fields for the query. verify that you can connect to the data source and that your query syntax is correct.(Details-Object reference not set to an instance of an object.)
Here is my code
using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.Text; using System.IO; using System.Data;
e.g. when the <UserID1> clicks on the "home" link show only "Client" folder and when <UserID1> clicks on the "Client" folder only "ClientReportA" will show.
Here is the accessable map for each user:
<UserID1> Client
ClientReportA
<UserID2> Client
ClientReportB Company
CompanyReportA CompanyReportB
Question: What is the best way to implement CheckAccess? At first I thought I can access the item names and I can test authorization through that, but AceCollection contains operation permission of the accessing object.
Greetings. I have developed our own custom security extension, implemented forms based authentication, and can authenticate from report manager, report server and sql studio. So far so good.
However, when it comes to Authorization, i'm unclear in a few areas and would appreciate if someone could help me out with the following questions. It should be noted that in the code I have granted an administrator user full access to all operations and permissions, and then tested against both an administrator user and a normal user.
"Returns the set of permissions granted a specific user for an item in the report server database."
Inparticular, the secDesc parameter is supposed to contain the security descriptor associated with the item.
However, with our extension this parameter is always null, even if I have already granted access for a user, which is confirmed through logging in CreateSecurityDescriptor.
Through the report manager or sql studio I can see that the permissions have been created, so I can't understand why I never see them in the GetPermissions method? This then (seems to) flow through to the various CheckAccess methods, where the users are authenticated, but are not authorized to perform any operations. i.e. in report manager a user has no folders or reports available.
Is RS authorization designed around the concept that the details will always be stored in it's own database?
Ideally, we'd like to have the various roles, users and function authorizations defined in our own security framework. This is working great for the authentication aspect of the extension, but unless there is a mechanism which exposes the details of the particular authorization process (e.g. the name of the folder being viewed or report being run), then I can't see a way we can implement it. Unless i'm missing something fundamental of course!
Using Report Builder as the Administrator user (or any other user), I can see no data models available, even though I have created them via Report Manager, and I get the following exception trying to open up the list of reports:
System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException: The permissions granted to user '' are insufficient for performing this operation. ---> Microsoft.ReportingServices.Diagnostics.Utilities.AccessDeniedException: The permissions granted to user '' are insufficient for performing this operation. at Microsoft.ReportingServices.Library.ListChildrenAction.PerformActionNow() at Microsoft.ReportingServices.Library.RSSoapAction.Execute() at Microsoft.ReportingServices.WebServer.ReportingService2005.ListChildren(String Item, Boolean Recursive, CatalogItem[]& CatalogItems)
I have implemented a report server proxy (inherited from ReportService2005) as per the example, to pass through the authorization cookie. Any clues as to what could be wrong?
Finally, I suspect part of my problem may be in assignment of users to System Roles ("System Administrator" and "System User"), I'm not sure if these are meant only for Windows Authentication? I can see no way of assigning these roles to any of my users using Forms Authentication.
I am trying the get the custom security extension samples to work on my machine. I have installed everything according the sameple help file. However, i am getting a "Authentication Ticket is not issued by LogonUser." error after I attempted to log on to the report manager thru UILogon.aspx page. I already created an admin user. Upon a closer inspection, I realized that the authentication went thru okay, however, the authentication Ticket Name contained in the "RSAuthenticationHeader" has a duplicate value of "sqlauthticket, sqlauthticket". So apparently, the report server added this value twice to the response header. Has anyone seen this error before? How would you fix it? Also to bypass this error, I parsed out the header and take the correct auth ticket name, now report manager just redisplays the logon page and not letting me thru. Has anyone have seen that before? I am running in Win 2003 server, IIS 6, .NET 2.0 and SQL server 2005 enterprise version.
I have following all the steps but I am getting this error:
--------------------------- Microsoft Visual Studio --------------------------- The designer extension DATASET could not be loaded. Check the configuration file RSReportDesigner.config. --------------------------- OK ---------------------------
I have doubled checked the edits I made to that config file. Rebooted, relaunched, etc. No matter what, I cannot get past that error message.
I am using a Win XP machine with SQL Server 2005 Express Edition with Advanced Services SP2. Just curious, but does express version support CDEs?
Hey, I was just wondering if someone could point me in the right direction on an issue. I've got the authentication portion of a custom security extension working properly (while authorization is just sort of giving everyone a pass) and all of my Googling efforts seem to be bearing little fruit. Now that authentication is in place, whenever I try to deploy a report from Visual Studio, it comes up with an error.
The error is that it is getting the authentication html login page set in web.config (as I expected), while it was looking for an xml page. I'm a bit new to this side of things so I'm not really even sure where I should be looking to see what kind of xml page it wants and such.
I don't need anyone to bother explaining the entire thing to me as I should be able to figure it out once I can get a start, but as I said I just need a kick in the right direction because my Google-fu has failed
My query should be pretty simple to answer by the gurus. I have SQL Server Express Advance series installed at my system along with VS 2005. I tried the reporting services (remote mode) to display a report in the report viewer on my aspx page. The report simply uses an SQL query to get the result. Everything works fine and dandy!
However if i want to get data from my own data set, i used a webservice and ussed the XML data source option in the report to traverse through the XML. In the preview mode of the RDL everything works fine however when i deploy or rather run it using report viewer on my webpage, it gives an error that 'XML' has not been registered as an extension etc.
I looked in the rsserver config file, it IS configured. The only answer i have is that the EXPRESS version of SQL only supports the regular SQL data sources. I do not understand if that was the case, why does the preview mode work fine??
If i am correct then for the next release the ms developers should disable that or rather give a more meaning full error. I spent an entire day fideling around just to find out that it isnt supported with debates all over the place as to why in the world does it work in the preview mode?
Anyhoo, to get around that issue, i am wondering if the Custom Data Extension would work on the SQL Express or not? I am assuming it wouldnt. Please clearify this. Ideally all i want is to access my own data set in the report, no SQL queries or whatever, CDE seems the way forward but does SQL Express allow it?
Many thanks guyz.

I have been getting to grips with writing a custom data processing extension for using a supplied dataset. I have got it working OK so far, but I don't see how to make use of relational data. There's plenty of code for walking through the fields, but nothing to walk through the tables. Since this clearly has to be possible can someone tell me where I'm going wrong?
I build a CDE on the base of the FSi-Example. Deploying worked fine
here is the problem: I build a new shared data source, but can't edit the connection string. the button disables itself. why? Therefore I copied the string from an existing datasource. I supplied the auth-data and all seemed to be fine. when i want to build a dataset with this datasource, I get something like this: "no connection to database possible check connection string and test connection. "
But this is not possible because of the disabled edit button.
Can anyone help please? What's wrong?
dev-pc and server are not the same machine.

I've created a custom Data Processing Extension and I've implemented the IDBCommandAnalysis interface so that my reports can enter parameters and pass them to my Data Processing Extension.
My question is, how do I extract the value from the Parameters coming from the report? Where do the parameters get passed off from the report? I can query the Parameters collection and my report gets prompted in Preview mode to enter something for the parameter but I can't find the spot where it gets passed for processing.
I am attempting to deploy a sample report (SQL 2005 Workgroup w/SP2) and I am receiving the subject error message when I attempt to view the report on the web server. We are using SQL Server 2005 Workgroup Edition connecting to an Oracle database.
Is this a limitiation of this version? In report designer, I am able to select Oracle as a connection type. If I try to create a data source at the server, "Microsoft SQL Server" is the only option available. If I look at the ReportServer config file, I see many other data connection types available. Did I miss a step, or is this a Workgroup Edition limitation (it's not documented as a limitation that I am able to find)?
When I run my report from within visual studio 2005 it generates just fine.
However, when I run the report from the reporting services local web site I get the following error. What do I need to do to fix this (temporarily turning off .net security uusing caspol didn't work).
An error occurred while executing OnInit: Request for the permission of type 'System.Security.Permissions.EnvironmentPermission, mscorlib, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089' failed
I am using an OLEDB data source connecting to an Access database. Using SQL Server 2005 SP2 Workgroup Edition.
I can build the report fine and view it in Visual Studio. When I deploy the report and try to run it on the Report Manager site I get this error
An error has occurred during report processing. (rsProcessingAborted) An attempt has been made to use a data extension 'OLEDB' that is not registered for this report server. (rsDataExtensionNotFound).
When I go to the Shared Data Source, this message appears beside the Connection type field
The data processing extension used for this report is not available. It has either been uninstalled, or it is not configured correctly. What am I doing wrong??
I am using this custom data extension from BI Studio.
Que1: I want to create report parameters from BI studio and capture them in my Data Extension.
Que2: Every report parameter has so many properties, like hidden, internal, default value etc, how do capture that information in my data extension, the parameters only give me name and value.
Que3: I know I can capture command Text. So My command can be Select * From tablename where fieldname= @myFieldname. Once I get this commandText in my data extension, How do extract parameters of the command?
Que4: If I have any custom attributes in my RDL file, Can I capture them in my Data Extension ?

The komponnet works well. How do I grant permissions to access this text file? Because I got problems when I try to run my package using a task created in the SQL Server Agent.
Can anyone tell me what the heck this is trying to tell me. I have 3 datasets I'm working with so there are errors for each here:

I need help about this , What i've done so far is a data processing extension that gets its data from a WS , I use it as a datasource for a report , That report will be displayed withing an ASPX page containing a reportviewer control that displays that report , The problem is catching errors that occurs withing the data processing extension .. ,
When i debugged the extension i saw that after throwing an exception the code ends up inside the "cancel()" event inside the IDBcommand implementation...
In all examples for a data processing extension i could find online they always have a comment saying the cancel is not implemented and throw a NewUnsupportedExtension()..
What happens is i get some uninformative , non-userfriendly error from the reporting services , something like "an error occurred during the report processing(rssomehing)"
How should i go about handling those exception that happened inside the data processing extension?
I've tried catching the error inside the event of the reportviewercontrol - reporterror but it seems that event don't fire when those errors are generated..
Any help on how to approach this would be highly welcome
I have installed the SSRS 2005 Forms based login security extension as per the sample and instructions that come with the product install. I have double checked my work and debugged up to the point explained here.
My user is in the database and I can get to the login page. I have traced the code and can see the user being authenticated properly by server.LogonUser, the authentication cookie being created and placed in the response object, and then the redirect url being set to the reports/pages/folder.aspx. I have employed tcptrace and can see the sqlAuthCookie set in subsequent posts.
Unfortunately the redirect to folder.aspx never happens. I keep returning to UILogon.aspx. I think their is something either wrong with the auth cookie or the web.config in the ReportServer IIS virtual directory. The relevant xml from the web.config is attached below.
I would appreciate any thoughts. I am running on W2K3 SP1. Thanks.
I have followed all the steps indicated in the Security Extensions Sample for RS 2005, and I have not changed any webpage code. However, I get the following errors: - when accessing http://<computername>/ReportServer Access to the path 'C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.3Reporting ServicesReportServerlogon.aspx' is denied - when accessing http://<computername>/Reports Error message 401.3: You do not have permission to view this directory or page using the credentials you supplied
On my current project we have a requirement to re-authenticate the user when accessing sensitive information.
We want re-authenticate using standard NT logins against Active Directory (not a custom database or SSO.
This is trivial to configure using Basic Authentication, however I would like to use an ASP.NET login form. I would like to avoid writing a security extension as I do not want to perform custom authentication. I would like the web service to use it's built in authentication and authorisation mechanisms.
Is the above possible???
The following gives some more details about wht I've tried.
I have tried configuring the report server/manager with Forms authentication as in the sample but cannot get it to work with out implementing the security extensions.
I changed the web.config files and the policy files for permissioning my dll with FullTrust. I did not configure an extension as I want reporting services to use it's built in windows security mechanisms.
In the login page code behind I call the ReportingService2005.LogonUser() method which always throws the following exception: Client found response content type of 'text/html; charset=utf-8', but expected 'text/xml'. The request failed with the error message: --

I check the log file and it has the following:

Am I missing something? Is this even possible? If not, then why isn't it possible?
It feels like I've been going round in circles on something that shouold be pretty trivial to configure.
------------------------------------------------------------- Here's what our Immediate window Debugger is tellin' us about our configuration settings:
Now notice the stuff in bold...I have NO IDEA where this gosh-danged thing is reading, but it doesn't seem like it's the app.config file in our class library...
I am attempting to deploy the sample Security Extensions. When I navigate to <machinename>/reports in IE, it works fine and I am able to register the administrator. The user exists in the table correctly, but I am unable to login as the user. It keeps going back to the same uilogon.aspx redirect page.
It appears to be a similar error as http://forums.microsoft.com/TechNet/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=289636&SiteID=17
However, I am using the machine name the entire name, never referring to it as localhost. Any ideas? Thanks!
