How To Setup User Security For Reporting Services Used Inside ASP.NET Web Applications?

Dec 13, 2007

I'm working on a project that requires integration of SQL Server Reporting Services with ASP.NET 3.0 Web Applications.
I'm working on Visual Studio 2005, with SQL Server 2005 on an XP development workstation.
SQL Server, Reporting Services, and IIS are all running on my local machine.

I'm trying to prototype two approaches, one using the Report Viewer control, and the second using the Reporting Services Web Service. I have the two examples setup in projects in Visual Studio.
The sample reports and data sources work fine in Visual Studio. I can access the report using the Reporting Services URL like this: http://localhost/Reports/Pages/Report.aspx?ItemPath=%2fBTT_BDS_DEV%2fCustomers; Report works fine.

My problem is, that when I try and access the report using the Report Viewer inside an ASP.NET page or from the Web Serivce hooked up inside an ASP.NET Page I get a security errors. I have chosen Windows Security for the Datasource, and ASP.NET pages. In the case of the Web Service, I'm passing in my local domain user name as the credentials.

I'm prototyping this on my local workstation, but I need to design this to be used on our corporate Intranet using Windows Security.

My questions are:

1. How do I need to setup users on my local development workstation to get this to work.
2. How should I plan for user security for enterprise deployment, i.e. using Reporting Services inside a large ASP.NET Web Application?
3. Can anybody give me some links to some good developer type working examples of doing this. I've looked but have not found the answers
to the "how do I setup users" part of the question specifcally related to ASP.NET apps?

Below is the code example of the Web Services example app I'm working with which came out of a book I have on
Reporting Services. This example compiles and seems like it would work but doesn't. Also following are a few of the
error messages I get when experimenting with the example apps:

Errors:

1. The permissions granted to user 'LocalMachineNameASPNET' are insufficient for performing this operation. (rsAccessDenied)

2. System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException was unhandled by user code

Unable To Execute Job Inside Sproc From Reporting Services

Mar 21, 2008

We have a request to build a report based on user input from an excel spreadsheet. We have a SSIS package that imports the data from Excel. This is run by a sql server agent job. Our stored procedure executes this job and runs this whole process just fine but when we execute the stored procedure from reporting services we get errors. Has anyone done this type of thing before and do you have any working solutions for how to get this reporting methodology to function?

Thanks!

Reporting Services :: SSRS - Nested IIF Inside Switch Not Working

Nov 20, 2015

Here I am trying to do switch then nested IIF in it. I dont know where i missed but this doesnt work.for first condition in switch, 'WEEKLY', WW2 and WW1 is in number form but of text/string datatype. so after cast them to integer/number datatype then those are use in iff operation.for second condition in switch, 'MONTHLY', WW2 and WW1 is month name. so the objective is to get month number from month name. After that, then WW1,WW2 are use in iff operation.

=SWITCH(Parameters!date_range_type.Value
= "WEEKLY", IIF((cInt(Parameters!WW2.Value) - cInt(Parameters!WW1.Value)) > 10, Parameters!WW1.Value,IIF(cInt(Parameters!WW2.Value) < 11,1,cInt(Parameters!WW2.Value) - 10)), Parameters!date_range_type.Value = "MONTHLY", IIF((cInt(MONTH(datepart("YYYY",today())&
"-" & Parameters!WW2.Value & "-01")) - cInt(MONTH(datepart("YYYY",today())& "-" & Parameters!WW1.Value & "-01"))) > 10, MONTH(datepart("YYYY",today())& "-" &
Parameters!WW1.Value & "-01"),IIF(cInt(MONTH(datepart("YYYY",today())& "-" & Parameters!WW2.Value & "-01")) < 11,1,cInt(MONTH(datepart("YYYY",today())& "-" & Parameters!WW2.Value
& "-01")) - 10)) )

if i run report for 'WEEKLY' only, means doesnt need switch and the other iif condition, it working fine. so does when run on 'MONTHLY' only.

Reporting Services Setup

Jul 31, 2004

I installed and started playing around with Reporting Services and realized that you are required to run IIS on your SQLserver in order to use RS. Is this 100% true?
Please tell me there is an alternative...this is huge roadblock due to company policy.

Thanks.

I have now uninstalled SQL Reporting Services, reinstalled it, but I am still getting the same error. From what I can infer, there is a problem with the httpHandler in the web.config file. It cannot load Microsoft.Web.Services.ScriptHandlerFactory.

Does anybody know anything about this or what else I might need to check? This has been going on for two days now and short of totally uninstalling all of SQL, I don't know what to do.

Need Help Getting Reporting Services Setup For Internet Access

Feb 29, 2008



I have report server setup on the same machine where the sql server 2005 db is setup, as well as iis running the website. i simply need to get report server running to allow internet access. I have report server setup so that it is running locally (localhost), however, as soon as I change the iis site settings to a domain name, report server stops working properly. This looks like a permissions issue, Ive tried different combinations of settings, but nothing works. Any insight on how I can get report server setup for internet access (forms authentication), would be much appreciated.

Reporting Services Security

Sep 18, 2007

I’m having problems with security for reporting services when using Windows Integrated Security as the connection type for the data source.

Here is the setup: The reporting service is on a virtual machine called cws-devtest. The database used
by the reporting service is on a server called sql2005, and that database is Enterprise Edition.
There is a cube from which the report retrieves data on a server called sql2005-dev, that is sql server 2005 Developer Edition.

I have created roles on sql2005-dev, and have assigned users and groups to those roles
to achieve the security that I want. I have tested those roles using the cube browser, and using Excel 2007
and that looks very good.

I created a simple ssrs report to test security in that area, and am having trouble simply
viewing any data, logged in as myself, using Windows Integrated Security.

Here is the error from the browser:

•An error has occurred during report processing.
oCannot create a connection to data source 'trade_dw_cube'.
#61607;The connection either timed out or was lost.
#61607;Unable to read data from the transport connection: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host.
#61607;An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host.


If I use “Credentials stored securely in the report server� in the browser for the data source,
and enter my Windows username and password, and check the “Use as Windows credentials when connecting to the data source�
checkbox, I can view the report, but that does not use the roles that I had already created. I prefer to use Windows Integrated Security.

Has anyone been able to use Windows Integrated Security with SSRS?

Reporting Services :: SSRS 2012 Setup Parameter Value

Apr 22, 2015

In an existing ssrs 2012 report, I want to basically add the following logic to a new dataset that will be used by a new parameter called 'Inventory'.

SELECT  DISTINCT Inv_number as value,  Inv_name as label
FROM s.dbo.fnUser( @endYear, 0, 0, 0)
WHERE (@report is not null)
order by  label,value

In this ssrs report, there are 15 reports that can automatically be generated. I basically want this new parameter called 'Inventory' to only be active when the 4th report is selected to be generated. Thus in the query I listed above, how can I change the query to only be active when the 4th report is selected?

I tried to change the where clause to (@report(4) is not null), but that did not work.

SQL 2005 Reporting Services- Security Question

Jul 17, 2007

Hi



I have built an ASP.NET 2.0 application which is accessed both internally and externally. I have forms authentication implemented using an AspNetSqlMembershipProvider, also AspNetSqlRoleProvider and AspNetSqlProfileProvider have been implemented, all data is stored in the SQL 2005 database for the application.

I have been asked to start using SQL 2005 Reporting Services to create some complex financial reporting for the application.

My question is quite straight forward, can I use the security that is implemented in the application to grant and/or deny access to reports for this application in Reporting Services?

If so, please could you provide pointers to the information I'd need to implement this, hopefully in a 'Reporting Services Security for Dummies' style would be good.



Many thanks,



Lee

Cell Level Security And Reporting Services.

May 27, 2008

Hopefully, someone has figured this out:

I've implemented and tested cell level security on the cube. It's testing certain level conditions, and returns #N/A (as normal) when the user is not supposed to see the cell value. Since I always use .FormattedValue in my reports, works fine in Report Services (and Excel and ProClarity, etc.)

Here's the problem:

When RS parameters encounter this situation, the parameter dataset "breaks" (The following system error occurred: Type mismatch.) This is happening, because the parameter fields (ParameterValue, ParameterCaption, ParameterLevel) are being replaced by #N/A, due to the cell level security. This is happening, because these are actually defined as members, and hence passing through cell level security.

What I need to do is find a way to have these specific members bypass the cell level security, so that the parameter datasets still work. (Failing that, a new way of specifying parameters in MSRS.)

I've tried the following a a cell level security rule, but it doesn't seem to work:


[Measures].CurrentMember is [Measures].[ParameterValue] or [Measures].CurrentMember is [Measures].[ParameterCaption] or
[Measures].CurrentMember is [Measures].[ParameterLevel] or
[Measures].[Is Visible]

Any ideas?

Integrated Security: Preventing Access Via Unauthorized Applications

Feb 20, 2008


Hi €“

We have built a .NET on SQL Server application with extensive business functionality and security. It uses SQL integrated security to control logon and access to the database objects. There is business logic built into the .NET code, so I don€™t want any chance that users access the tables directly through a tool such as Management Studio - many users need update, delete, insert on tables in order to use the applications functions. With integrated security they can logon through SQL Management Studio and change data in the tables directly.

How are people who are using integrated security for their business applications preventing logons through unauthorized tools or applications?

Reporting Services :: How To Setup SSRS For On Demand Access And Fast Cache

Sep 22, 2015

I have a dashboard page that I would like to load fast. But I would also like the user to be able to run the report On-Demand. The report has start date and end date parameters which default to the first and last day of last month. If I use a Cache plan that loads at 6AM the report runs with the default parameters set in the report, the user has to wait until it completes before they can change the parameters.

If I uncheck "use default" parameters in the report I lose the ability to set a cache refresh plan with the default parameters because the option is greyed out. So is there anyway outside of creating a second copy of the report to allow a user to open a report, change the parameters and run it, but also have a way to schedule some sort of Cached report for the default parameters so I can put that on a WebPart page that would load instantly?

Reporting Services Configuration And Database Setup Error Invalid Object Name 'sysdatabases'

Yesterday, literally I was banging my head to the wall, kept getting this error:

A Connection could not be established with the information provided. Hit OK to change your connection settings.
Invalid object name 'sysdatabases'.

I uninstall and re-install back the reporting services couple times and I kept getting the same error.
I have 2 instances of SQL Server on the same Server:


SQL Server 2000

SQL Server 2005
The 2 instances work side by side, I was wondering if this causing the error.

Can anyone help out with this problem?

Reporting Services :: Grouping A Table Inside A Table Cell - SSRS Report

Jun 10, 2015

I have a report where in I want to show each record on a separate page.

So, to achieve that I took a single cell from table control, expanded it and used all the controls in that single cell. This looks nice so far.

Now, I also have to show a  sub grid on each record. So I took a table control and added on the same single cell and tried to add a parent group to the table row.

When I preview, it throws this error.

"The tablix has a detail member with inner members. Detail members can only contain static inner members."

What am I doing wrong? How can I achieve table grouping inside a table cell?

Setup Of Security / Integrated Win Security On Vista

Jul 6, 2007

I have Sql Server Express installed on Vista (service pack 2)

I have Visual Studio 2005 with an application that I'm trying to access it with within a WCF service.



The login ID of the service is added to the database.

The database has remote access turned on.

The ID is granted access to all databases within the server.

The thread is being set with WindowsProvider and the services set their thread to WindowsProvider.

The dataserver is set with using Windows Authentication for security.



When I open my connection to the database, though, it reports the typically useless message that the connection is not allowed and that the server may not allow remote connections.



How to I get past this? I've done everything right.

Can't Access Reporting Services In Management Studio Or Web Interface Using Windows Integrated Security

May 12, 2008

I know from searching this forum that there have been many variations of the issue I'm currently suffering, but I haven't found anything quite like mine or a solution to solve it. The issue I'm running into is that I am unable to log on to Reporting Services using Management Studio or the web interface when Windows Integrated Security is enabled. I have full functionality using basic security, but the risks involved make it impossible to deploy basic authentication out into production. The error I'm receiving in Management Studio is The request failed with HTTP status 401: Unauthorized. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.UI.RSClient). I recieve the same error when I try the web interface.

I've looked the most recent logfile in WindowsSystem32LogFilesW3SVC1 and these entries match up to the time I attempted my authentication.

I tried to highlight one of each of the HTTP errors I am getting. 401.2 and 401.1 are the ones I kind of expected, but have no idea why I'm getting them. The 500 0 error is a bit troubling, because unless I'm mistaken thats a server side error.

Here's my current setup. As far as I can tell, I've done everything to set up correctly for Windows Integerated security.



My Specs
The server machine running all SQL 2005 services. It resides in a domain. All Clients are in the same domain.


Intel Dual Processor 3.20 gig Xenon

Windows Server 2003 w/ SP2

Microsoft Sql Server 2005 w/ SP2
Reporting Services Setup
The virtual directories Reports and ReportServer are set to Windows Integrated Security with Anonymous Access disabled. All other checkboxes in Directory Security are unchecked. For permissions in Reports, I have:


Administrators (servernameAdministrators) - Full Control

ASP.NET Machine Account - Modify, Read & Execute, List Folder Contents, Read, Write

Authenticated Users - Modify, Read & Execute, List Folder Contents, Read, Write

Creator Owner - No permissions

Domain Users - Read & Execute, List Folder Contents, Read

SQLServer2005ReportingServices]WebServiceUsers$... - Read & Execute, List Folder Contents, Read

SQLServer2005ReportServerUsers$... - Read & Execute, List Folder Contents, Read

SYSTEM - Full Control

Users (CompNameUsers) - Read & Execute, List Folder Contents, Read
In ReportServer I have the same permissions except Authenticated Users is absent.

At one point, I even added the account Everybody and gave it full control, and I still recieved a HTTP 401 error. Any help at what I might be missing would be a godsend.

Thanks.

Windows Server 2003 And Reporting Services Error: For Security Reasons DTD Is Prohibited In This XML Document.

Mar 29, 2007

I do a clean install of SQL Server + RS + SP1 with standard setup on Windows Server 2003. I create a simple report (select * from aTable). This report (actually any report) shows the error message "For security reasons DTD is prohibited in this XML document. To enable DTD processing set the ProhibitDtd property on XmlReaderSettings to false and pass the settings into XmlReader.Create method."



This has to do with security settings in Windows Server 2003. On Windows XP everything works fine.



Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!



Edit: The reports do work in the preview tab in BIDS.

SQL Reporting Services 2005: End User Deployment

Feb 15, 2008

Is there another way for users to access reports online besides the Report Manager? Or is there a way for users to go to a URL that does not include the server? The same question goes for Report Models and Report Builder. Can they access these features without access to the server and databases?
