I have a big problem with Reporting Services 2005 working on Windows 2003 Server. RS work as Network service, on subdomain reporting.mydomain with SSL wildcard certificate *.mydomain, Anonymous access: disabled and basic authentication: enabled ReportManager and reportServer has defualt virtual folders (/reporting, /reportserver)
My problem is: 1) I can't manage security roles and site settings with report maanger. when I try assign roles to new user or group I get followng error:
"The user or group name 'BUILTINAdministrators' is not recognized. (rsUnknownUserName) Get Online Help" when i try to execute reports in report manager, parameters controls are not displayed correctly (very simple text boxes) and I can see: The selected report is not ready for viewing. The report is still being rendered or a report snapshot is not available. (rsReportNotReady)
and I can't see my report in browser (IE 6.0) but only export to PDF, Excel...
other functionality are working fine i.e upload new files, creatign folders....
2) Also my reportserver virtual folder does not work correctly. When I navigate to mydomain/reportserver I can see content of this virtual folder, than when I navigate to ReportService.soap i can see normal ReportServer view
reporting.mydomain - /Reportserver/

Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services Version 9.00.1399.00
I think it is security issue. What schould i do to solve this problems?
As the title says I stupidly deleted the BuiltinAdministrator group now can€™t login. Is there anyway get back in? I did not setup the server up so I€™m unsure what the SA password is. As a last resort could I rebuild the Master database and then over write if backup?
Hi, Are there any implications for removing this group from SQL Server logins? We are trying to tighten up security and this is one area we want to focus on?
As default, the BUILTINAdministrators account is created during the installation of SQL Server 7.0. The default access is to have the account in the System Administrators server role which gives them dbo access to each database.
Since I don't want my network administrators to have sa privleges within SQL but still want them to be able to access the databases, I've removed them from the System Administrators server role. The SQL Server Login Properties window still shows the account having access into each of the databases as dbo, however they are unable to view or access any objects within the databases.
Shouldn't the account still have permissions, just not as sa? Can someone please explain this to me? I've checked BOL and several of the reference books I have, but don't find any detailed information on this account.
I am using SQL 2k SP2 on Win 2K Advance server Cluster. My problem is how to remove builtinAdministrators login. Earlier when I tried it was doing failovers from one node to another and not stopping. I was not able to do anything. Any help is appriciated
This message is in reference to a previously posted SLQ Server 7 question and answer regarding the BUILTINAdministrators account (dated 11/19/2001)
Original Question: I'm using Mix-Mode Authentication. Can I remove the Builtin/Administrator loggin ID without cause any harm to my current Login ID user(Windows NT user)? Are will removing Builtin/Administrator what harm will this cause to my server?
Answer to above: The first thing I do after installing SQL is remove the Builtin/Administrators account for the SQL Server. Depending on how you set SQL up, this should not affect any NT users, unless you granted them access to the server through the local Administrators group. This is not the prefered way of granting access, however. This will give any administrator on the machine access to all of the data, which you may not want, depending on the confidentiality of the data.
Situation: (SQL Server using Mixed Mode Authentication). If the Builtin/Administrators is disabled or deleted, and the server rebooted, SQL Server will be initiated but, the SQL Server Agent won't be. Signing onto SQL Server as SA will not be able to restart SQL Agent nor will an NT user with administrator capability have any better luck
Question: What specifically in NT and SQL Server does one need to change to get around this situation. The SQL Server documentation is not very helpful regarding the use of this login.
While attending a SQL 2000 Administrator course, two of my colleagues were told to always delete this account but were not given any reason or explained the consequence of this action.
We need to remove the BUILTINAdministrators from reporting services. I.T. personnel do not want to be able to see restricted reports. We have two department users that have been added as Content Managers and we are running reporting services under a created domain user account that we created and not a system service. I have removed BUILTINAdministrators from the Home folder and when I check, it comes right back. Do I need to deny access to BUILTINAdministrator on SQL Server 2005 itself? I would apprecate any suggestions.
After I removed the BuiltinAdministrators Group and changed the SQL Service Account from LocalSystem to my Window account this Openrowset query fail.
select a.* from openrowset('MSOLAP', 'DATASOURCE=HODB02;Initial Catalog=POS_DM;', 'SELECT {[Measures].[SALE PRICE]} ON COLUMNS, {[Item_Type].[Description].MEMBERS }ON ROWS FROM [ONLINE SALES ANALYSIS]' ) as a
OLE DB provider "MSOLAP" for linked server "(null)" returned message "The following system error occurred: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it. .".
Is that relate the teh Security Account Delegation?
does someone know where to find information regarding what is accesible to a BUILTINAdministrator which is not accesible to a System Administrator?
Somewhere I have read that a System Administrator can not see the "All users' folders (i.e. the collection of "My folder"s for all users of the Report Server) but I have also experienced a behaviour which has surprised me: as a System Administrator with all permissions I cann't even see folders that a BUILTINAdministrator can.
Does it mean that a System Administrator can not really manage all the resources of a Report Server?
We recently moved our Team Foundation Server from one server to another, of course the reporting services was also included in that move.
On the new server, we are not able to change Reporting Services security parameters anymore, we get this error : User or group « BUILTINAdministrators » not recognized. (rsUnknownUserName)
The old server was an english windows 2003, the new one a french version, i guess the problem is related. The BUILTINAdministrators group name on the new server is "BUILTINAdministrateurs".
Is there a way to change security params without getting this error ? How can we remove from Reporting Services this reference to BUILDTINAdministrators ? I've tried to modify the table Users directly in ReportServer DB without any success..
We have a server shared by two project teams. To tight the security, I want to remove BUILTINAdministrators off the public and sysadmin server roles. My question: any thing I should pay special attention ? I use LocalSystem to start all SQL Service. I know this is not a very good pratice yet I have no choice as our company network is a mixed of windows and novell, we do not have AD.
SQL Server 2005, Windows Server 2003: On our production db, the SA acct has been locked. I realize that I could enable mixed mode and then connect via an administrator -- but we are already running in mixed mode, and our BUILTINAdministrators account has sysadmin permissions turned off.
As it stands, the only user I can connect as does not have permission to modify any of the login info.
What recourse do I have at this point? Can I disable mixed-mode and re-enable it (via registry)? If so, will it reset the SA account or rebuild the BUILTINAdministrators login for me?
Or do I need to contact Microsoft, and if so is there anything they can do?
I need to remove full admin privs from the builtinadministrator's group in report manager.
I tried removing the builtinadmin role from report manager and SQL Server, I removed it from the Site Settings area and from each individual folder's permissions.
Yet all the members of that group still have full run of the report server...
I even made a new folder that ONLY I am listed as having permissions to, yet they can see that as well...???
I have an SSRS 2012 table report with groups; each group is broken ie. one group for one page, and there are multiple groups in multiple pages.
'GroupName' column has multiple values - X,Y,Z,......
I need to group 'GroupName' with X,Y,Z,..... ie value X in page 1,value Y in page 2, value Z in page 3...
Now, I need to display another column (ABC) in this table report (outside the group column 'GroupName'); this outside column itself is another column header (not a group header) in the table (report) and it derives its name partly from the 'GroupName' Â values:
Example:
Value X for GroupName in page 1 will mean, in page 1, column Name of ABC column must be ABC-X Value Y for GroupName in page 2 will mean, in page 2, column Name of ABC column must be ABC-Y Value Z for GroupName in page 3 will mean, in page 3, column Name of ABC column must be ABC-Z
ie the column name of ABC (Clm ABC) Â must be dynamic as per the GroupName values (X,Y,Z....)
Page1:
GroupName          Clm ABC-X
X
Page2:
GroupName          Clm ABC-Y
Y
Page3:
GroupName          Clm ABC-Z
Z
I have been able to use First(ReportItems!GroupName.Value) in the Page Header to get GroupNames displayed in each page; I get X in page 1, Y in page 2, Z in page 3.....
However, when I use ReportItems (that refers to a group name) in the Report Body outside the group,
I get the following error:
Report item expressions can only refer to other report items within the same grouping scope or a containing grouping scope
I need to get the X, Y, Z ... in each page for the column ABC.
I have been able to use this - First(Fields!GroupName.Value); however, I get ABC-X, ABC-X, ABC-X in each of the pages for the ABC column, instead of ABC-X in page 1, ABC-Y in page 2, ABC-Z in page 3, ...
I've posted a feedback with Microsoft to see if we can get them to fix the issue described below, but so far no one from Microsoft has commented to let us know what they're doing about this problem! I'm posting this here to see if maybe we can get more people to rate this feedback or chime in on what a pain it is! Please feel free to add your own comments or how you had to work around this issue and whether or not you think this is something Microsoft should be addressing NOW.
Provide Individual Page Numbering per Group and Total Pages per Group
Currently in a Reporting Services report, you can't readily reset the page number for each group in a table, nor can you display the total number of pages per group. For example, if I'm printing invoices and each invoice is a separate group, I'd like to be able to print "Page 1 of 5" , "Page 2 of 5" etc. for the first invoice, then "Page 1 of 3" when the next invoice begins, and so on. This was easy in Crystal Reports. I realize that Crystal Reports has a two-pass process that enables that kind of pagination. However, this is REALLY important functionality that's just missing from Reporting Services and I'm hoping you'll provide it REALLY SOON! Yeah, I know there are work-arounds if you can know exactly how many rows of information there are on each page. But gosh! That's not practical, especially if you have second level groups inside the main group or text blocks in rows that can 'grow' to more than one line. I've read a couple of work-arounds, but none of them works correctly and consistently when more than one user is running the same report or when you print the report while you're looking at it on the screen. I still may need access to the overall report page number and the overall total number of pages, so don't get rid of that. It's just that if you're doing this already for the entire report, I don't see why you can't do it per group! Lots of people have been asking for this for years, and I don't understand why it hasn't been implemented.
I've read a few articles on this topic, but no one has come up with a decent work around. My theory is that Microsoft should be addressing this immediately. This is major functionality that's just plain missing from SSRS and should have been there from the start. If anyone from Microsoft can let us know what's going on with this issue or if anyone would like for me to clarify this further, feel free to let me know.
I have an SSRS report with groups that when exported to excel contains drill-in's (plus marks on left side). The issue I have is that for all the groups in the drill-in, those cells become merged. I want to keep the group drill-in but have the cells UNMERGED. I have heard this can be done with the RDL XML but I don't know what to modify to accomplish this.Â
I'm having a fight with Reporting Services at the minute when trying to compute an average at the row group level for a value summed in a column group.I have the following column groups:
Year Month Date
And the following row groups:
Region Product SubType (hidden, data at the date level is summed to Product)
At the moment I'm computing the average for SubType for each Date at the Product level (giving a decimal value), so for each day I end up with a nice average, that works. However I am unable to average that average over the whole Year for a Product. The issue being that I'm trying to combine Row Groups (Product) and Column Groups (Date/Year)
select top 15 count(*) as cnt, state from table group by state order by cnt desc
[code[...
Can the above three queries be combined into one and still be fast, if so how?What i am trying to go is an item count, by group, similar to ones Inbox in Outlook.
I have a need to show a row inside a table group to simulate a header row for the data rows inside the group. The table will not have a real header or footer. Thanks for the help.
I have one domoain in the forest. The domain level is set to Windows 2000 native mode and forest level is set to mixed mode. My SQL server 2005 server joined to this domain. I added a brand new domain local group and add a normal user account to this domain local group. I login to the SQL server 2005 server and make a query "SELECT * FROM sys.login_token". I cannot see my domain local group in sys.login_token. However, if I add my account to a global group, I can see it there.
Then, I setup another forest. This time, I have domain level set to Windows 2003 mode and forest level is set to Windows 2003 native mode. I do the same testing. This time, I can see my domain local group in sys.login_token.
Why does SQL server 2005 has this limitation? Is it a bug?
HiI am new to SQL and am having a problem. I need to fix my query to do the following...2) get a total of the number of rows returned. DECLARE @StartDate varchar(12)DECLARE @EndDate varchar(12)DECLARE @Region varchar(20) SET @StartDate = '01/01/2002'SET @EndDate = '12/31/2008'SET @Region = 'Central' SELECTA.createdon,A.casetypecodename,A.subjectidname,A.title,A.accountid,A.customerid,A.customeridname,B.new_Region,B.new_RegionName FROM dbo.FilteredIncident AINNER JOIN dbo.FilteredAccount B ON A.customerid = B.accountid WHERE (A.createdon >=@StartDate AND A.createdon <= @EndDate)AND (B.new_RegionName = @Region)AND (A.casetypecode = 2)
I'm new to MSSQL 2005 and want to get a summary of a log table. I want to count all the rows for each date based on a DATETIME field called 'post_date' that holds the date and time of each record's creation.
this is the best I can come up with:
Code:
SELECT DISTINCT(LEFT(post_date,11)) AS post_date, COUNT(DISTINCT(LEFT(post_date,11))) AS total_posts FROM log_directory_contacts GROUP BY post_date
The results show each date but the count column ('total_posts') returns '1' for every row even when I know their are more than 1 record on that date.
I have a matrix with two row groups and one column group with about 6 items in it. I have about 2100 rows at the lowewst row group level. This report was built solely for excel export. The first row group has about 20 items and controls the visibility of the other group. When I toggle the visibility of the second row group, how can I make the the header of the first row group copy down for each row of the other row group? The first row group is the Section and the second is Mnemonic.

Our past CIO deleted a SQL Server database because he didn't know what it was or if we needed it. Guess what we do! We were able to undelete the backup files but when we try to restore from it we get the error "No a valid backup" Any ideas?
