Error When Moving A Report Server Database To Another Server
May 22, 2007
We have a new server (SRV63) and I followed the instructions at http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms156421.aspx to move the report server database from our old server (SRV38). Everything appeared OK, however, when I went to initialize the instance in the Reporting Services Configuration tool, it shows an initialized instance (checkbox is checked) for SRV38 and and uninitialized instance for SRV63 (checkbox is not checked). Please note that I am not trying to create a scale-out deployment. I tried to initialize SRV63 but received the error below.
--------------------
ReportServicesConfigUI.WMIProvider.WMIProviderException: The report server installation is not initialized. (rsReportServerNotActivated)
at ReportServicesConfigUI.WMIProvider.RSReportServerAdmin.ThrowOnError(ManagementBaseObject mo)
at ReportServicesConfigUI.WMIProvider.RSReportServerAdmin.InitializeReportServer(String installationId)
------------------
This is the only thing stopping me from shutting down SRV38 and bringing SRV63 into production. Can someone assist me with this issue?

I am using reporting services 2000 with SQL server 2000.
The report server is on my machine and report server database is on another sql server.
I need to move report server database from server1 to server2.I have tried the method which i found on net i.e
1-Stop the reporting services
2-detach the report server database from server1 and attach it to server2
3-reconfigure reporting services using RSconfig wherein i specified the new server name , database name and authentication.
4-Start the reporting services
5-Restart IIS
After following all these steps when i browse the report server i get the following error :
"The report server cannot open a connection to the report server database. A connection to the database is required for all requests and processing. (rsReportServerDatabaseUnavailable) Get Online Help "
Kindly help me on this.

Hi
I have to copy (move) a database from one server to another .
One of the way of doing it is to take backup at source server and restore it at destination server .
I am doing it with the following series of statements .
================
At Source Server
================
USE master
EXEC sp_addumpdevice 'disk', 'DBName_Device',
'Irhahadb01F$mssqlackupDBName_Device.dat'
BACKUP DATABASE DBName TO DBName_device
=====================
At Destination Server
=====================
--Copy file (DBName_Device.Dat) from Source backup folder to Destination Backup folder
USE master
EXEC sp_addumpdevice 'disk', 'DBName_Device',
'Irhadvdb02D$mssql7ackupDBName3_Device.dat'
RESTORE DATABASE DBName
FROM DBName_Device
WITH RECOVERY,
MOVE '<Data File Name without .mdf>' TO
'irhadvdb02D$mssql7data<New Data File Name>.mdf' ,
MOVE '<Log File name without .ldf>' TO
'irhadvdb02D$mssql7data<New Log File Name>.ldf'
Above step works fine for one of the test database which small in size.
But it fails for the large database having Data file (.mdf) as 2.5GB and log file as 1.5GB .It says " not enough space on network drive to restore database" . But fact is that I have 200 GB free space on the server .
Please advice .

Hi,
I'm new to visual studio and reporting services. We have report models, reports and data sources on a temporary server that need to get moved to a new report server. I have been able to upload certain reports to the new server but I'm still having problems with other items. What is the easiest way to move over these items to the new server? Is there a way from visual studio to connect to the old server? I want to save the items to my local drive and then upload them from there. Any suggestions will be highly appreciated. Thanks!

I have a development server setup with Report Builder that our users have been testing out. They have a number of reports that they have created on this dev server.
We now have our live environment all setup and I'd like to move their Report Builder reports to the new server for them so they don't have to recreate them.
Is this possible? If so, how?
Thanks.

Hi All, first post.
I have done a bit of searching around and cant find a clear answer to this question.
Current Setup
Desktop application (c#) that connects to a SQL Server 2005 express database on the same local network as the application (currently 3 users)
It is only a very small company and has just taken on their first remote worker, but expects to take on another 6-8 over the next few months. They have asked for the database to be moved online.
The application was written in such a way that everything has been done using no stored procs, or views, it is all native SQL.
This will be my first DB hosted online and before I go ahead and do anything I just wanted to make sure what I have to do is correct, sorry if this is a very basic question, although I have been programming for a long time, I have never had the chance to do any online databases before.
Will this work.
1.Find a SQL Server 2005 Hosting company.
2.Move the database to the server.
3.Setup the users permissions.
3.Alter the connection string in the application to point to the new location.
So the only thing that would change would be a new connection string in the application preferences?
Or am I living in a dream world, because nothing is ever that simple.
One thing I am worried about is the security/visiblity of the database and data as it travels from the server to the client and back.
Thanks for any advise you can give.
Mark

Books On Line makes breaking out the report server databases on to a separate machine from the report server itself sound very easy. I have tried it and it is but I can't get the report server to connect to the databases once they are on the other machine.
Everything was done by the book(s). We use SSRS only for intranet use so all inside firewall. The SQL Server 2005 services on both machines (including the RS Windows service) all run as the same domain administrator account, this account was used to log in to RS Config Tool and it was told to use this account under Windows Authentication to connect to the database server. The two machines are in the same domain, even on the same switch. The only difference is the one with report server on is Windows 2000 Server SP4 and the one to which the rs databases are moving is Windows Server 2003 SP1. The account mentioned above has sysadmin rights on both SQL Servers, as well as having all the RSExecRole rights as specified in BOL. And it has rights to logon as a service in group policy on both machines. Its password hasn't been changed.
The RS Config Tool completed fine and reported no errors.
But when you try to connect to the report server you get the error:
"The report server cannot open a connection to the report server database. The logon failed. (rsReportServerDatabaseLogonFailed)" The log shows that a privilege required by the client is missing but doesn't specify what! I thought this was all taken care of when the RS Config Tool told it which account to connect with.
This is driving me daft. It should be so easy!! Does anyone have any idea what might be wrong? Nothing says I need to do anything with the encryption key when I am keeping the report server itself exactly as it was and just moving the catalog - or have I missed something here?
Grateful for any ideas.

Hi, i was after some advice on moving a SQL Server 2000 database from one server to another.
Usually i would do this by backing up the database on the original server the copying it accross the LAN to the new server and restoring it there. This database is 10Gb in size and copying it accross the LAN will take some time and i would like to minimise downtime if possible. The database is at a customer site where i am not responsible for the network or Hardware.
Thanks in advance for your help

Hi -
I got through the installation hoops for SQLEXPRESS Reporting Services in Vista and set up the default configurations in Report Services Configuration. I can explore the default directory for "Reports" in IIS7, but I can't browse in IE. I get the "The report server is not responding. verify that the report server..." message in the browser. This is after I migrated the app per the initial http 500 error using the preferred method - %systemroot%system32inetservAPPCMD.exe migrate config "Default Web Site/Reports".
I'm running Vista Ultimate, VS2005, SQLEXPRESS SP2. I've tried running IE as admin and also I've disabled UAC from gpedit.msc - ...Windows SettingsSecurity SettingsLocal PolicySecurity Options and unchecking UAC.
Thanks,
Mike

I've set up a report server on IIS on my local machine using SSRS 2005. All is well in the world--it shows up, and I can publish reports and have them display successfully.
However, I'm trying to publish a couple of reports based on an Access database--and this is where the problem lies. The reports run perfectly in Visual Studio, which is on the same machine as the report server. Thus, I can deduce that the ODBC connection to the Access database is set up properly. There are no errors on the report, which means that the reports are set up correctly. I've spent the last day researching the problem, but nothing I've tried thus far (from putting the Access database in a shared folder to changing security on the file and report server to rebuilding the reports from scratch) works. The exact error is given below, with the data source name changed:
An error has occurred during report processing.
Cannot create a connection to data source 'MyODBCDataSource.
ERROR [HY024] [Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] '(unknown)' is not a valid path. Make sure that the path name is spelled correctly and that you are connected to the server on which the file resides. ERROR [IM006] [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Driver's SQLSetConnectAttr failed ERROR [HY024] [Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] '(unknown)' is not a valid path. Make sure that the path name is spelled correctly and that you are connected to the server on which the file resides.
Can anyone suggest something I missed? I'm stumped on this one.
Edit: Just to clarify, EVERYTHING is on my local machine--the web browser I'm viewing from, IIS, SSRS 2005, the Access database, the ODBC connection (in the System DSN), everything.

I've had some problems with Reporting Services and getting connected to the database server after configuration. I am now getting the following error message:
The report server cannot open a connection to the report server database. A connection to the database is required for all requests and processing. (rsReportServerDatabaseUnavailable) (rsRPCError)
In my Database Setup everything runs fine when I click apply except for the Setting Connection Info for Reporting Server this has a yellow triangle with a ! and says that the report server cannot access internal information.
I also have not been able to Initialize as there are no instances to initialize and none are created when I go through setup. Is there something I need to delete from the registry or the file system that does not get removed upon uninstall?
Thanks.

Hi,
I have a database that resides on a server that`s become too old. It spans
2 devices that sit on 2 different drive letters - D: and E:.
I bought a new server, installed and configured NT4.0 and SQL6.5.
Initially I restored the database to the new server from a dump .It worked
fine, however all the login information was lost. Then I tried partitioning
the new server the same way as the old one and copying all the DAT files
over. Thus I was hoping to retain the information contained in the MASTER.DAT,
drop the database, repartition to create 1 physical drivewith 1 database device,
and restore from a dump to it.
After copying the DATs, though, SQL Server would not start.
Help Please!

Hi all. I know that since you know nothing about my database it will
be a stretch to answer this - but does anyone have a boiler plate
checklist for moving a database, dts packages, agent jobs, etc...from
one server to another? Maybe something that just says I should at
least do x,y,z.
Also if anyone out there has any hard won experience/advice about
gotchas when doing this I would love to hear it. We have outgrown a
server and are installing a new one this week that we need to move
over to.
Thanks!

i need help moving a database to a new server.
I have an existing database on a Windows XP Pro box running MS SQL Server Desktop Engine 8.00.
I want to move this database to another machine running Windows Server 2003 Small Business Server w/full SQL Server (new edition).
I can see the database, and the directory structures are almost identical on both machines. But when I simply copy the data over nothing works. Obviously to me I must somehow back up the original database and restore it somehow on the new machine.
Any tips on where I begin? I have done searches in the Microsoft Knowledgebase for articles on how to backup and restore from one type SQL to another with frustrating results. No clear directions.
Thanks!

I have a pretty complicated report (lots of subreports, tables, etc) that can be well over a few hundred pages long. I can generate the report just fine, but I cannot seem to export it to anything other than an html archive. I need to export to PDF. Every time I try to export it get an error that says:
An internal error occurred on the report server. See the error log for more details.
I don't get any more information than that. Is there a way that I can figure out what the actual error is, or any other way I can go about troubleshooting this? Thanks.

Hi,
I'm developing a website using the new authentication system from asp.net 2.0 and when I try to copy the database to my server and I try to add data to it, it gives me a read-only error.
I've tried several ways, but I can't seem to find the solution. It works well in my computer but if I move it to the server it just doesn't work.
Is there anything I need to do? I have all the permissions needed in IIS.
Thanks,
