Import Specification Missing In Reporting Services
Apr 25, 2007
I am using Reporting Services to create reports on an Access database. I am using the OLEDB provider to connect to the Access 2000 database file. Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0. When I try and establish a connection to one of the queries in my database, I get the error message below. I had copied the access database from a previous version in which the Import Specification below was used. The import specification is no longer necessary. How can I get Reporting Services to not look for this text file specification?
TITLE: Microsoft Report Designer
------------------------------
An error occurred while executing the query.
The text file specification 'CEU06_FULL_REG_INFO Import Specification' does not exist. You cannot import, export, or link using the specification.
The text file specification 'CEU06_FULL_REG_INFO Import Specification' does not exist. You cannot import, export, or link using the specification. (Microsoft JET Database Engine)
As the title states I have a 64bit DSN but when I try to create ODBC datasource in Reporting Services it does not appear in the dropdown box. I have created as a system DSN.
I have to load on SS2012 hundeds of excel files produced by an application over the last five years, during time few columns have been added to the initial set.I created on SS2012 a table to match with the full set of columns and want to load all the files inside the table leaving the missing cells to NULL. I think SSIS can do the job but every trial failed do far.
I have an issue where I need to set a whole bunch of internal parameters' values to the result of a dataset first executed with the report...nothing new or majestic about it.
The problem is that the 'First dataset', under some parameter values, return no records..it is empty (which is fine). But this meas that these internal parameters error my report as the 'NEED' a value even though I have specified a default, I still get the 'Paremeter X is missing a value' error. I just want the other datasets, which are reliant on these erroring parameters to either execute with parameter values of 0 or not execute at all. Thus I want the sub datasets to return with blank data in this case or not execute at all.
We currently have reports for a client running on SQL 2000 RS. The strange thing (problem) is that we can see any embedded image in the Report when we Preview it, and view it on our testing server (SQL 2000), but at the client's site (also running SQL 2000) the images don't appear at all. The same goes for any graphs inside the report as well. This is very puzzling as we cannot find out what the problem is. The other strange thing is that we can see the images on the client's site when running them through Report Manager, but when we go through the application using the Reports, then the images do not appear at all. We have no idea of what's wrong. The app is running on 2003 Server x64, the database is being hosted on another server running 2003 Server, and the report server is running on another server running Windows 2000 Server.
Recently we upgraded to SSRS-2008 R2 from SSRS-2008 (enterprise edition) and noticed that all the underlines for hyper-links in all reports are missing. Also the font color has reset back to default color (had set to blue to indicate a hyperlink).
Redeployed the same report from VS-2008 SP1 but no luck. Although the formatting (color + underline) looks ok in the preview mode in VS.if there's any workarounds as many end users are getting confued with this change.
I have deployed Lync 2013 and monitoring which all went through fine. However just one of the monitoring reports (conference join time) shows no data even though there is data within SQL All other reports are fine and all datainformation is displayed. I've tired to publish the reports again but this has not made any difference.
People, help me with this? Already broke my brain.
I have some data on Sybase 9.0.2.3198, i'm tryin to render report with MSSQL ReportingServices 2000 Eval SP2.
the report designer is fyiReportDesigner 3.0 - and I can do preview with it.
after deployment I'm tryin to render it, RS gives me an error:
An error has occurred during report processing. (rsProcessingAborted) Get Online Help Query execution failed for data set 'Data'. (rsErrorExecutingCommand) Get Online Help Column '@start_date' not found
I tried connect through ODBC and OLEDB both - same result.
ps I'm gonna kill somebody real soon.
the sql:
WHERE PERIOD.BEGINDATE between CAST(@start_date as timestamp) and CAST(@end_date as timestamp)
I have a project with SQL sever reports in it. During a test upon returning to the VS 2013 Professional interface, the tool box area still had the previous information displayed and never returned to what should be there for the report design tools.I restarted VS, and the toolbox no longer looked like it did before. Specifically, the datatable tool among others was missing. I was unable to "refresh" the datatable after making changes to it.
I opened other Reports in design mode, and the tools did not show up for those either.The Report Items in the toolbox does contain things like Pointer, Text Box, Line and so forth.
in order to use an SSIS package as a data source in a report, I need to enable the SSIS extension in the RSReprotDesigner.config and RSReportServer.config files. That extension is in neither of these files. I have SSIS running on my machine with Reporting Services.
The path to RSReportServer.config: C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSRS10_50.MSSQLSERVERReporting ServicesReportServer
The path to RSReportDesigner.config: C:Program Files (x86)Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0Common7IDEPrivateAssemblies
Why is this extension not in either of these files?
The following is an abbreviated list of what's present in the RSReportServer.config file:
I have a series of drill-through reports from a parent report. While in BIDS I get a blue arrow that allows we to get back to the parent report from the drill-through report. I do not see this feature available on the RS web interface. How are users expected to navigate back to the parent report?
When exporting SSRS 2008 R2 report to an csv or excel file not all the rows are being exported. The number of rows is less then 500 and it seems to be a pretty straight forward export.
I contact you because we installed Report Services 2012 and after configuring werb service URL, database, Report Manager URLs... the URLs linked to the Report server + Report Manager does not work.After searching in IIS, it seems that even if virtual directories are created, they are linked to directories which does not exist :- c:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSRS11.ReportReporting Services does contain only LogFiles and RSTempFiles directories.
In the Project Web Access (PWA 2010), I have created Report Library which contains .rdl files --> Manage Subscription --> Add Subscription --> Email subscription is missing
Did i missed out some thing but other email functionalities like notifications, Approval workflow are working fine so no issue with SMTP.
I would like to have a parameter on my report to Select by Order_Taken_By. My attempt at that is here:
Dataset called OrderTaken:
select distinct SO_Header.Order_Taken_By from SO_Header Under the report Parameter Properties named @Order, under Available Values Selected "Get Values from a query"
I have DataSet: OrderTaken
Value Field: Order_Taken_By Label Field: Order_Taken_By
The values of the field Order_Taken_By is all text characters, no integer values.
Running the inital Query by itself yields results. When I add the parameter, I can make a selection, but now I get no results, even though there should be values for the choice I've chosen.
I have a win.forms application part of functionality of which is to show rdlc report. When I try to launch the application it says that ReportViewer assembly is missing, which was expected. When I downloaded and try to install viewer runtime from here: [URL] .....
I receive that Microsoft SQL Server System CLR Types are not installed and must be installed first. I downloaded appropriate installation from [URL] .... and it installed successfully. But when I try to run viewer runtime installation it still says that Microsoft SQL Server System CLR Types are not installed. What do I miss?
Installed SQL Server 2008 with Reporting Services to a Windows Server 2008 box. Tried to open the Report Manager and had no tabs and no Site Settings link - just a blank home page. I am logged onto the server with local administrator rights, so it shouldn't be a permissions issue.
Thinking the installation was bad (IIS was not installed before installing SSRS), I uninstalled and re-installed SSRS after setting up IIS 7 on the server. Still the same issue - just a blank home page in report manager with no ability to add users or assign roles or see anything except the links for "Home", "My Subscriptions", and "Help".
Hi, I'm having problems navigating from one report to another one if the second report has a multi-valued report parameter. When I navigate to the second report, I don't pass any parameters, but I get an error "parameter is missing a value" for the multi-valued report parameter. I have it setup as allow "multi-value" and "blank value". Any idea what the issue might be? Thanks.
Using SQL Server 2008R2 and Report Builder 3.0..I have an action set in a text box of a table. My intent is to pass the value of that text box (which is variable) to a sub-report in a popup window. Here's my code: URL....The parameter of the report I'm trying to open is @SONum.I'm guessing my error is involved in the formatting of how the value of the parameter is being passed. I've also seen examples where the report server and report values were parameterized, but I don't know where to define
Parameters!ServerAddress.Value anywhere.Do I need to have something set up a certain way within the report I'm opening? Here's the report Parameter settings on the report I'm trying to open.
In my SSIS Package I am loading data from Oracle source to SQL Destination. But while loading I am getting below error.
[OLE_DST_FORECASTSTANDARD [72]] Error: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_OLEDBERROR. An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80004005. An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft SQL Server Native Client 11.0" Hresult: 0x80004005 Description: "Invalid character value for cast specification".
[OLE_DST_FORECASTSTANDARD [72]] Error: There was an error with OLE_DST_FORECASTSTANDARD.Inputs[OLE DB Destination Input].Columns[UNITS_NEW] on OLE_DST_FORECASTSTANDARD.Inputs[OLE DB Destination Input].
The column status returned was: "Conversion failed because the data value overflowed the specified type.".
I have attached the table definition of both source as well as destination.
I have OLE DB source which executes SP with 2 parameters and output is flat file. Every time I run I immediately get output below. How do I troubleshoot further what might be causing this?

I am trying to import Access reports using Visual Studio 2005 and Access 2007. SQL Server 2005 with Reporting Services is also installed. I select Reports in the Solution Explorer and then Import Reports... Microsoft Access and browse to my Access database. After I select the database I see it open briefly as if it is trying to import the reports but then Access quickly closes and a error pops up: "You already have the database open." I have checked and double checked and the database is not open. I have even tried several different databases and the same errror occurs. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I want to start the SSIS wizard to import data from a flat file, but I right click the DB > select Task and the Import and Export options are not there. Is there something I have to enable before the options show up
I installed Sql Server Express with Advanced Services. Created a new database. When I right click the DB, and select Tasks, there is no Import/Export on the task list. The drop down Tools menu has only three items, External Tools ....., Customize ..., and Options ... (I have the client Sql Server Enterprise Manager on this machine to connect to Sql Server 2000 on another server.)
In 2000 i could import and select all objects and get the indexes as well but with 2005 i dont seem to be able to find any such option. how do i import data and get the indexes as well?
I am trying to import a flat file using the Wizard. That option does not show up. It shows up fine on my other machine. I installed 2005 Standard edition and they are still missing. I then uninstalled everything, rebooted and reinstalled Standard edition.
The flat file option is still missing. Any thoughts?
I am trying to import an xlsx spreadsheet into a sql 2008 r2 database using the SSMS Import Wizard. When pointed to the spreadsheet ("choose a data source") the Import Wizard returns this error:
"The operation could not be completed" The Microsoft ACE.OLEDB.12.0 provider is not registered on the local machine (System.Data)
How can I address that issue? (e.g. Where is this provider and how do I install it?)
I am trying to migrate my reports from SQL server 2000 reporting services 32bit to 2005 64bit. I am following the migration steps that MS specified. Restored my Reportserver and ReportserverTempDB databases Then I was using the configure Report services to upgrade these databases but I always end up getting the follwoing exception when I run the upgrade on the "Database Setup" configuration for 'ReportServerTempDB' database System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Could not locate entry in sysdatabases for database 'ReportServerTempDBTempDB'. No entry found with that name. Make sure that the name is entered correctly. at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection.OnError(SqlException exception, Boolean breakConnection) at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlInternalConnection.OnError(SqlException exception, Boolean breakConnection) at System.Data.SqlClient.TdsParser.ThrowExceptionAndWarning(TdsParserStateObject stateObj) at System.Data.SqlClient.TdsParser.Run(RunBehavior runBehavior, SqlCommand cmdHandler, SqlDataReader dataStream, BulkCopySimpleResultSet bulkCopyHandler, TdsParserStateObject stateObj) at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand.RunExecuteNonQueryTds(String methodName, Boolean async) at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand.InternalExecuteNonQuery(DbAsyncResult result, String methodName, Boolean sendToPipe) at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand.ExecuteNonQuery() at Microsoft.ReportingServices.Common.DBUtils.ApplyScript(String connectionString, String script) at ReportServicesConfigUI.SqlClientTools.SqlTools.ApplyScript(String connectionString, String script)
It's driving me crazy, why is it looking for 'ReportServerTempDBTempDB' in the catalog instead of 'ReportServerTempDB'? Is it possible to migrate from 32bit to 64bit?
I'm new to SSIS, and trying to automate data imports from text files. The text files I'm importing always contain a fixed set of columns, or a subset of those columns. If I include a subset of columns in the import file (and exclude others), the data doesn't import...I assume because the actual file doesn't include every column defined in the flat file source object?
Is it possible to accomplish this without dynamically selecting the columns, as indicated here: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms136020.aspx
I want to import a txt file data to a sql server database table, to do this i used sql server import and export wizard. In this when we choose a Data Source, the option Flat file source is not coming up in the combo box in the wizard.
I am using sql server 2005, Management Studio to do this.
steps 1. right click on the database --> all tasks --> import data --> sql server import export wizard --> choose data source dialog box....
After some weeks evaluating tools and platforms for developing an application, I decided to move to SQL Server 2005 Express Edition. Everything was fine till last night, when after creating my tables, I needed to populate them. I tried to find the Import and Export Data Wizard that SQL Server 7.0 and 2000 used to have, but great was my surprise when I found - in this forum - a post that said that it's not available in the Express Edition.
I'll have to move back in time (what I hate) to remember the way BCP worked. Can somebody post some examples to not start from zero ? Does anybody know a third party visual tool that can import/export data from text files to a SQL Server DB via ODBC ?
