Login Prompt When Deploying Solution/report To Report Server
Aug 10, 2007
Hi there,
I've seen some similar posts to this one, however none with an answer and I'm wondering if anyone has actually figured out what causes this issue. I'm running SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services.
I'm attempting to implement a folder structure for the report server, therefore am creating individual solutions in Visual Studio for each folder. At the top level i.e http://servername/reportserver/ I am able to deploy reports no problem.
However creating a folder at the next level in the tree and then deploying to that level such as http://servername/reportserver/ManagementReports causes a Reporting Services Login prompt to appear. No matter what user credentials I enter they are not accepted. I have full administrator rights the server, the site and the folders in question.
Has anyone else experienced this? Does anyone have any suggestions?
We are using Microsoft Reporting Service 2005 to develop reports and we are accessing these reports through a J2EE application. The front end is implemented using Tapestry and we using JBoss as our applicaiton server. We are using Shared Data Sources for the reports and we set its data source type to SQL Server Analysis Services. In the credential tab, by default "Use Windows authentication" is selected. All other options are disabled.
When I access my reportserver through my web application, I am always prompted for a windows login and password. How can I avoid being shown the windows login prompt, since our web application will be used by several users and we do not want the users to type in a username/password everytime they want to access our reports.
I installed SQL reporting services 2005 and successfully configured reporting services.After designing the report using Bussiness Intelligence Studio, i tried to deploy my reporting services application to the localhost , I got the below mentioned error :
TITLE: Microsoft Report Designer ------------------------------
A connection could not be made to the report server http://localhost/ReportServer.
The attempt to connect to the report server failed. Check your connection information and that the report server is a compatible version. (Microsoft.ReportingServices.Designer)
------------------------------
The request failed with HTTP status 404: Not Found. (Microsoft.ReportingServices.Designer)
i created report and i have to deploy report , at time of deploying it asks report services login credentials.my sql server is windows authentication .it doesn't accept any credentials.how to avoid RS login window at time of deploying report.
I have developed a custom report item that works fine in design and preview mode while in Visual Studio. I cannot get it to show up on my deployed reports. Here's what I have done so far:
1. Deployed the report using Visual Studio
2. updated the rsreportserver.config file with the following entry:
I've also tried using the StrongNameMembershipCondition with no better results.
4. The dll and its dependencies are copied to the bin directory of the report server.
5. When I load a report with this custom report item on it, the report loads fine with no errors or warnings in the log file (even with verbose tracing). The area where the custom item should be is just white. It's almost like Reporting Services isn't registering the item correctly.
This is particularly frustrating because the report works fine in Visual Studio - apparently I configured that correctly. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I'm stumped.
Using MS SQL 200 SP4 with Reporting Services 2000 SP2 on Win 2003 Server SP1
Visual Studio .NET 2003 on different PC (Win XP SP2)
No problem creating reports or building solutions. Problems develop when deploying report to Report Server.
Here is the Output:
------ Build started: Project: From CD, Configuration: Debug ------
Build complete -- 0 errors, 0 warnings
------ Deploy started: Project: From CD, Configuration: Debug ------
Deploying to http://<server name>/ReportServer?%2f2nd Deploying data source '/2nd/AdventureWorks2000'. Deploying report 'Vendor Purchase Orders'. The report definition is not valid. Details: Could not find schema information for the element 'http://schemas.microsoft.com/sqlserver/reporting/2003/10/reportdefinition:Report'. Deploy complete -- 1 errors, 0 warnings
These are my first attempts using report services. In a previous deployment attempts it created the folder (named 2nd), but in another attempt (saving it to the existing folder) I got the same result as you see above (I have also tried with a new folder but no luck). This above output is from my last attempt.
The Build error Task List states:
The Report Definition is not valid. Details: Could not find schema information for the element 'http://schemas.microsoft.com/sqlserver/reporting/2003/10/reportdefinition:report'.
The shema URL as above returns HTTP 404. If I remove :report, I receive the page for Report Definition Language Schema May 2004
Looking at the .rdl code the schema URL is as above without :report.
As you can imagine with a limited skill set in this area I am quite confused. I have been doing alot of research but found nothing to help (or that I understand will help) so far.
If anyone can help me get through this I would appreciate it.
1. have report called report_a.rdl with subscriptions attached to it 2. developed a new report called report_b.rdl with the same parameter list as report_a.rdl 3. i would like to replace report_a.rdl with report_b.rdl without losing the subscriptions.
I think this is the workflow:
1. rename report_a.rdl to report_a_old.rdl in BIDS 2. rename report_b.rdl to report_a.rdl in BIDs 3. deploy report_a.rdl to reporting server
Will that work even though the ReportID GUID will change?
I have created several reports using SSRS which is installed in my local machine. But source data base is in the main server. Data source connection works properly. Report manager is also configured to local machine.
Now I tried to deploy these reports to main server. So I changed the target URL to http://mainservername/reportsserver in the internal report property change box. But it was not succeeded. I get a error message like this.
------ Build started: Project: Partner Reports -Internal, Configuration: Production ------
Build complete -- 0 errors, 0 warnings

How can I copy a report and all its supporing queries and make a duplicate so that report1 and report2 are duplicates.
Report 2 will be little different than report1 but the basic queries and parameters will all the same. I can then edit the report layout to what the new report will look like. I do not want to have to cut/paste one object at a time.
Hello All, I am having an issue deploying reports to my Production server via VS 2003 IDE.
The scenario is that I have a dev box with all 3 components installed on the same server(VS 2003, SQL 2000, sp3 , IIS and Report Server). I have no problem deploying to this Dev server. Now I need to deploy them to a different server(Release) in a different Domain. The Release implementation is, IIS and Report Services installed on one Server and SQL instance on a different server , but both IIS and SQL server are in the same domain. So in my VS 2003 IDE I choose a project/solution and then right click to Deploy I get an error " A connection could not be made to the report server <server URL>". My Solution Property page "Target Server URL " is pointed to this Release server virtual directory(http://Release:81/Reports). This Relase IIS web server has different web site, I installed the RS in the Default website. I can browse RS server(http://Release:81/Reports) from anywhere via web and get to Site settings and all, But I cannot deploy from VS2003. Am I missing anything? Earlier I used to get at least log-in credentials to enter my UID and PW, as I provide them I never got anything back, it keeps asking me for UID and PW. Now I straight away get "Conection could not be made" error.
I have a Report Server when i try to deploy my report on the same server and if i use the Fully Qualified Domain Name in my report path i get the below Error
We have many domain users who develop/deploy reports using VS2003 to our remote server at https://server/reportserver with no problems at all.
A single workstation on the domain that been used to develop reports cannot deploy though. The message looks fairly simple to diagnose "no report server was found at https://server/reportserver". I have checked dns and the servername resolves no problem. I have manaully edited and added the server to the hosts file also. I have updated and service packed all VS elements (VS2003 7.1.6030).
The server is contactable in all ways on this workstation, all ip/dns settings are the same as other domain workstations.
Can anyone point me in the direction of log files to look at, or if i am missing any basic options in VS. I have checked all deployment settings from other workstations.
I have created a ssrs report using ssrs-2012 that contains 2 tables 2 pie charts and 1 line chart. But I am unable to see 2 pie charts and and 1 line chart after deploying the rdl in sharepoint server.
Why I am not able to see those charts, or sharepoint server will not support charts at all.
I'm a very basic user to VSS 2005 and I've created a simple report to display our customer master table. The problem is that we have 1000's of customers, but the report must scroll page by page.
Basically I had 2 paramater which ComputerName and MemberName.
The membername was set as Multi-Value as sets as follow: Label: Value: Exclude Domain Admins Domain Admins Exclude Local Install Local Install
And the query is:
SELECT id, ComputerName, GroupName, MemberName, ScanDate FROM GROUPMEMBERS WITH (NOLOCK) WHERE ComputerCN LIKE '%' + @ComputerName + '%' AND MemberName NOT IN (@MemberName) ORDER BY ComputerName ASC
The prompt is like this: Computer Name [ ] Excluded by [ ]
The issue is in the second prompt I have to select "something" which is I don't want to. I want the user to have this parameter as an optional.
I have created a DLL and specific translation funtions for my reports. With these functions i can manipulate all text and numeric data in anyway i want depending on several user settings (like user language and user local browser settings).
The only textfields i'm not able to manipulate with my functions are the parameter prompts.
Is the a way to manipulate them through custom functions ?
A second question i have. When reports are deployed, they are deployed with there initial file name (file name.rdl). Is there also a way that i could manipulate the description when they reports are deployed ? example : when the user's browser is set to english he would see eg: Sales overview but when the browser language is set to french he would see eg: Résumé des ventes.
We have requirement where we need to run the SSRS report from Command Prompt. We are using Control + M, which is a scheduler runs only from DOS prompt.
Can anyone help us to know the procedure of doing this.
I would like to call the report from an external source: The report requires a paramater.
I tried the following: <a href='http://Report.aspx?ItemTakeOn%2fItemTakeOn&ProcessNo=278'> Report</a>"
The link works & i added the parameter in the link (ProcessNo=278) it opens the report but i still have to manually insert the Parameter. Also tried setting the parameter as hidden.
I've got a few questions regarding prompts on the Report builder
Can I change caption of the prompt? I intend to let the users know what kind of prompt that is, if the date they're choosing is a upper limit or a lower limit
How can I create a Between date prompt? I tried using the From..To but it disabled my option to tranform the Filter into a prompt, and from some reason it didn't let me execute report which had After and Before prompts on the same date field (tried it as some sort of work around)
I tried adding fields from a 3rd level table using the report builder, I.E, I drilled down to the 3rd connected table and I was unable to add fields ... any thoughts?
Hi all I hope someone can help me on this issue: I am designing dynamical reports, that are abel to run in four different languages - so far everything works just fine for me (I select my headers and labels from a database). Only problem is the prompt text for report parameters. How can I set this text dynamically?
E.g. I have a parameter where the user selects a storage - this prompt should be "Storage: " in the English report and "Lager: " in the Danish report. I have absolutely no idea how to fix this.
I have a question regarding how to use report prompts in SSRS reports that are based on SQL queries. When I added the prompt into the query for use as a filter value, it says that there is an error. It does not recognise the '!' inside the parameter prompt string. Example is parameter!month_prompt.Value, which the ! is not recognised.
we are working with Sql Server Reporting services for creating reports. what is my question is , how we can create a setup for deploying the reports in the report server. please advise
I'm having a little bit of trouble deploying the report project I have set up. In fact, I'm not even sure that deploying the project is what I want to do. All I want is to have something so I can view the report I've created in HTML or PDF form, something that was advertised when I downloaded the reporting services. Any help with what I would need with this would be appreciated.
I have been asked to create an archive database which we can use for reporting purpuse . The idea is to have a seperate data base which is an exact copy of the current production database , Once we setup the archive DB . we will remove all 40 days old data from Production database and form that day on should have archive DB with full data and production DB with 40 days old. I thought go going log shipping or back up restor or snapshortor something but the problem is with all these technology the both data base will come in sync . If i delete data from production that will reflect in arvhive also .
I thought of keeping the 40 days only in production and the rest in archive . But they want to wiew the both data together in one aspx page . so i had think of some joint view . But when the archive data gets grow this would be the main perfomence bottlentck
Can any one help me to select a good solution for this, thanks in advance
In Report Builder, can you link prompt/filter fields to one another? For instance, I have Users and Groups and I want to dynamically fill the dropdown for Users based on the Group(s) chosen in the group prompt/filter. Or show the hierarchy as a expanding tree list for navigating the hierarchy to choose the user/groups to report on.
Another example would be product category & subcategory in adventure works.
And just to throw in a wrench, one of the areas I want to do this has 4 levels to the hierarchy.
I have created some reports using Report Builder however they autorun with default values when selected in report manager, cant think many people would want this to happen. Is there a way of getting rid of the default values in RB or preventing auto execute in RM?
does RS allow a report to be built such that after user runs it, hovering over a particular piece of info could display some variable piece of info similar to tooltips, intellisense etc?
How about a tip to the user if he/she hovers over a parameter prompt?
I am accessing my reports through one aspx page designed by me. in that i am using webservice to render the report and linking the url of the report to reportviewer
it is working fine but for the first time it is asking username & password of the reporting server to render the report. i am using Reporting Services 2000 plz help to avoid this user name & password prompt.
