How Do I Get Visual Studio To Open A Deployed Report?
Aug 9, 2007
Greetings,
I have a report that was previously deployed to a reporting services host (running Reporting Services 2005 SP2) and I'm running the version of Visual Studio that came with reporting services on the same reporting serviceshost. The deployed report was never opened on this particular server, so it doesn't appear in the recent files list. Is there a trick to open a deployed report in all of Visual Studio's report editing glory? Visual Studio has a File Open option to open an analysis services database, a project, or a file. A "deployed report" seems to be none of these options since it's an RDL file stored somewhere that IIS can find it. I know that I can use Report Manager and export the RDL for the report and then edit that RDL file in Visual Studio, but doing that appears to disable all of Visual Studio's report editing features (ie it works no better than notepad). What's the trick to get Visual Studio to open the deployed report and allow all of it's editing tools to work properly and then save the updated report back to the reporting services server?
I created and deployed a report to my Report Server and everything is functioning fine. However, my laptop was inadvertantly wiped when I was having it serviced and I had not backed up this report to VSS. Is there a way to import that deployed report back in to Visual Studio or do I have to basically rebuild my report from scratch?
I'm having a struggle with the printing of landscape reports in SSRS.
The reports appear fine when printed from the Visual Studio environment, but when I deploy to a web environment I get 1 or 2 blank pages before reporting continues (i'm using the SSRS printer icon, not the browser printer icon).
I've spent ages looking at margin and printer settings and can't find anything wrong - especially as it works under Visual Studio.
Has anyone experienced problems of this nature and how did you resolve them?
I've been trying this solution http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=2200113&SiteID=1 but for whatever reason it's not working. This is a SQL 2005 server SP2 I am trying to connect to.
I tried servernameMSSQL.1 I tried just servername. Restarted SSIS both times.
What's odd is that I have an admin db that I was able to connect to in VSS.
hello Friends, I am trying to import a database model that I created in Microsoft visio into Embarcadero erstudio 7.1.1? Any idea how that could be done? There seems to be no option to import vsd files?
I have recently applied SQL Server 2005 SP1 to a dev machine, and my workstation, where it rpesumably updated Visual Studio. Since then I cannot open an SSIS package that contains some encrypted data, due to storing a database password. I get various error messages, and Visual Studio reports that it cannot load the package - I never get prompted for the password. My colleague who has not applied SP1 yet has no problem. Has anyone else encountered this problem, and if so do they have a solution ?
Errors below:

Hi, I am trying to open or create a sqlexpress database within Visual Studio 2005 Professional in the App_Data folder. If I attempt either method, I get the following dialog box:Required Components MissingConnections to SQL Server files (*.mdf) require SQL Server Express 2005 to function properly. Please verify the installation of the component or download from the URL: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=49251 The link above just takes you to the download page for Sql Server Express 2005. I have both SQL Server 2005 Developer and SQL Server 2005 Expression instances running. The existing database will work properly in my web application, however I cannot access it through Visual Studio.As background, I did have a problem connecting to the database via the web application, receiving a "Failed to generate a User Instance of SQL Server" error. But I was able to fix that by renaming my SQLEXPRESS folder in C:Documents and SettingsuserLocal SettingsApplication DataMicrosoftMicrosoft SQL Server Data. When the web page ran, it created another SQLEXPRESS folder.However, I cannot figure out why I am having the other issue.Thanks in advancePatrick
I have written a report visual studio. The report has 10 multi-value parameters that pull data from their individual data sets within the reports. When running the report from within Visual Studio it renders fine. There are no errors reported, only a warning related to a pathname I have use to retrieve image data and display on the report.Deployment of the report is error free.When I view the report I briefly get the "Loading" splash window, but then nothing. None of the headers or static text is displayed. The results window is blank.
The report defaults all the parameter values. In trying to debug the issue I have found by reducing the number of parameter values the report will render. Once I have all the values added, the report does nothing.Below is the query being used for the report. The where clause in the query shows the parameters being used and the syntax.We are running on Windows Server 2008 R2 and SQL Server 2008 R2.

I am getting the following error when I attempt to deploy my test report.
"Failed to Deploy Report, The user 'XXX/IUSR_XXX' has insufficient rights to perform this action."
Has anyone gotten this error before, I have tried every permission option I could with the IUSR account by adding it to each folder etc ...and still get no resolve. Anyone have a fix for this bug ?
I am having a hard time finding the report path for the web report Viewer in visual studio 2005. I have tried entering the absoute path to the folder containing the reports. this gave the error that the path is invalid. I have also tried reletive paths using / and // in the front of the name for each report. these all fail. could someone please assist with finding the path to the reports? the reports reside on another server away from the one being used for development of the web site.
I have a ssas tabular model as a data source in a .pbix-file. I have uploaded the .pbix-file to Power BI Services and it works fine as long as my visual studio project is open. If I close my visual studio project, the objects in Power BI Services will say "The data recievement for this visual information was not successful."
Wasted a lot of time figuring out the possible cause of this. I was working in connected mode (with VSS), and when it tried to create a Report Model (after doing all its validations/checks), it had to check-out the project file, which is normal. But before doing so, it tries to check-out the .dsv file as well (data source view file from which report model is being generated). While attempting this, the visual studio crashes. I could never guess that this could be an issue. All the time I was trying to figure out if there was anything wrong with the data in my tables. So, for me, a simple solution worked - check-out the .dsv file before you start creating data model. I hope this may save time for others...
microsoft.reportviewer.design for Version 12 (2014) The redistributable package is just that, and does not include this dll So Visual Studio cannot create a V12 object.
The workaround is to use V11 and patch the inserted code.
When I launch Visual Studio 2005 and choose to start a new project...I expect to see "Report Model" as an available template (at least that is what my book says).
How can I install this?
Why is it missing? Is it due to the order of my installations? I installed RS first then Visual Studio.
Has anybody ever had VS2005 sometimes crash when deploying reports? It only happens once and awhile, but it is annoying. I was hoping this would go away with service pack 1, but it didn't.
Another problem that I thought would be fixed is when you try to close VS2005 after working on reports and it states "Cannot close because an active modal is active" occasionally.
I have not yet changed over all my reports to use fully qualified urls yet. As we have multiple domains in which the reports need to go through before they hit the production server and i haven't yet decided how i am going to handle the issues of the reports requiring fully qualified addresses (if someone has a way i would love to know).
I was getting the following error when i tried to deploy the projects but i delete all extensions from the blocked file types and that error went away. I can only guess that there was a file type it didn't like.
Error - "The file you are attempting to save or retrieve has been blocked from this Web site by the server administrators."
When i deleted all the file extensions i now get the following error.
Error - "File Not Found."
Just wondering if anyone has had any success with visual studio and sharepoint deployment or run into this problem.
I'm building a custom Data Processing Extension (DPE), and I was hoping test it inside Visual Studio report designer, instead of doing it on the server side in Reporting Services.
Note that I have gotten the RS configuration working.
I'm using Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 to design reports. Is there any way to use one single image as background for a whole report-page? I only managed to set seperate background images for page header, body and footer, so the only 2 possibilities to solve this problem would be to either
* divide the image into 3 parts so that they fit exactly to the page parts or * not use any page header and footer.
Is there another possibility that I've missed?
Any help is highly appreciated! Thanks in advance,
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
I have an assignment where I am asked to create a test report with Cascaded parameters in a report for use on an Intranet. Found a good guide on a site named slqtips. The only problem is, that when I have created my data source, my data sets and my queries, I should go to the window "Report parameter properties", for specifing the data which should be included in the choices in the report, and I cannot find it! As a matter of fact the milieu I work in, Report designer in Visual Basic Studio Shell 2013, on a MS SQL 2012 Server, looks different in many way compared to the guide. It actually also differs from the Pictures in the book "Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Reporting Services" I also try to use for the purpose.Am I perhaps working in the wrong place, or what can the problem be? Is this Visual basic 2013 Window some kind of upgrade which is different from the original version where you used to work with Report designer?
When creating a report using reporting Services with a cube as a datasource, visual studio 2005 hangs. I have applied SP1 to visual studio.net 2005 .
This is the query generated by query designer in reporting services. When I try to drag and drop another dimension to slice it by , visual studio hangs.
The fact table has just 10,000 records. Are the number of dimensions used to slice the cube too many? How do I optimize this query?

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.
I'm still quite a beginner with the Report Designer and now I have faced a problem. My goal is to make a reports refresh each time it is loaded. I know that this can be done by using rs:clearsession = true-method but in order this to work, it should be added to each link. There are a lots of links in the reports we are using and therefore it would be more practical to find another way to refresh the report on page load. Is there any way to do this with some kind of code attached to each report? I'm using Visual Studio 2003 and my Reporting services 2000.
I have converted the VS 2013 WinForm project to VS 2015. Once I installed it on client, report viewer is asking for Microsoft.ReportViewer.WinForms 12.0.0.0.With VS 2013 projects Report Viewer 2012 Runtime worked fine. I haven't been able to locate anywhere newer version of Report Viewer Runtime/

I have a text object on my crystal report, to which I programmatically want to assign text in CS. It all works fine, except that if I have html tags in there, the text doesn't get formatted, it just displays the html tags as text as well.
Now in thread linked above, the answer was: right click the text object, and format the text object, hit paragraph text and select text interpretation to HTML. The only problem is, that for a text object, it doesn't have the text interpretation option. It's only an option for a formula field. It says so in the tech support link posted inside the post itself!!!
So if you have any idea how I can do this, please someone help me out. I am new to crystal, and there's not much helpful info on it online. I've searched for this for hours, and no solution.
I am basically new as far as SQl server 2005 concern. I want to try out reporting services provided by sql server 2005. That is make report using sql server 2005 and call that report from web or window application.
Please guide me in doing so or give me some useful link. Thanks
I'll go to a dataset, open up the query designer, add a new parameter, then refresh the fields, but the parameter won't be added as a report parameter. If I go to the dataset properties under the list of parameters, the value in the dropdown will be blank. However, sometimes this will automatically add.
Is this a bug in Visual Studio? How do I get around this?
