Need Setup Help: The ReportServerVirtualDirectory Element Is Missing
Sep 19, 2006
I am getting setup problems with Reporting Services 2005.
When I try to connect through SQL Server Management Studio, the browser in the connect dialog can see the Reporting Services 2005 instance, but when I try to connect, I get an error dialog with the message, "The Report Services instance could not be found (Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.UI.RSClient)"
I manually setup ReportServer and ReportManageer virtual directories in IIS to point to the corresponding directories within the Reporting Services installation. Was I supposed to do this manually? Was the installer supposed to set this up?
Anyway, when I browse to http://localhost/ReportServer/ I get:
* The report server has encountered a configuration error. See the report server log files for more information. (rsServerConfigurationError)
o Access to the path 'C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.4Reporting ServicesReportServerRSReportServer.config' is denied.
When I browse to http://localhost/ReportManager/ I get:
An error occurred while parsing the configuration file. The ReportServerVirtualDirectory element is missing.
Anyone know what I'm doing wrong and what I can do to fix?
Configuration: SQL Server 2005 Enterprise edition on Microsoft Cluster. Machines named Node1, Node2 and NodeV (Virtual Node). Best practices require SSRS be deployeed on an IIS6.0 server. Reporting services was installed on the Web1 machine and pointing back to the database on the NodeV platform. Everything appears to run fine in Reporting Services. However, when I use the ReportViewer control from within a webpage, the basic control appears along with the message "root element is missing". Using the same code, I point the ReportViewer control to a different server Web2 where Sql server standard, IIS and RS are installed and the report renders properly. What am I missing in the configuration of the Web1 box as far as IIS or SSRS are concerned?
Hello, I use a XML Data flow item transformation in SSIS (XML Source). Here is an example of the input of xml file content:<extract date="2007-12-05"> <counters> <counter category="dispatcher" name="server1"> <runtime>6</runtime> <queue>3</queue> <maxrequest>8</maxrequest> <color>blue</color> <host> <name>svo2555</name> <path>\dispatcher</path> <lastaccessed>2007-02-03</lastaccessed> </host> </counter> <counter category="gateway" name="server1"> <runtime>1</runtime> <queue>10</queue> <maxrequest>10</maxrequest> <color>purple</color> <host> <name>svo2555</name> <path>\gateway</path> <lastaccessed>2007-02-03</lastaccessed> </host> </counter> </counters></extract> How do I catch the extract date in the transformation? SSIS only shows me the <counters> element and not the <extract> one. Why? Is there a way to get it?Regards,
I have written a simple routine to do some address checking between sources. The business owner wanted the check done to the address as a whole and to report the address' that did not return a match. The comparison works perfectly fine.
Well, now the customer has come back wanting to know what element(s) of the address make the match fail
You can see that we are building the address by sticking the 5 columns together with a space in between to create a single string. We are then doing the same thing with the other source data and simply comparing the string. This worked perfectly and was nice and simple... until the customer decided he wanted to see the element(s) causing the issue.
For example, let's say there is an address of '123 Main ST Dallas Texas United States' in one source, but it's '123 Main Dallas Texas United States' in the other. The customer wants to know that it is the road type (ST) that caused the mismatch.
Now, I wrote a bunch of queries to try and single out each element in order to determine if it is the one causing the issue or not. It seems to work partially, but I don't believe it is the best approach and it doesn't work if more than one column is the culprit.
This error comes up in the print preview and nothing prints.
We are using VS-2005, SQL 2005 and SSRS 2005.
We had the same problem yesterday , so we have reinstalled IIS, .Net Framework 2.0 and Reporting Services, then reconfigured RS security, uploaded all the reports and enabled remote errors. After doing everything this error was gone and we were operating pretty fine.
Suddenly just we started getting the same annoying message."ROOT ELEMENT MISSING" from Report Server and from Report Manager we have " 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 is sanjeev, i have SSIS package, using my c# program i want to add one execute package task to this package's sequence container.
it is creating the new package with out any probelm. but when i opened the package and try to move the newly created exeute package task it is giving the following error.
the element cannot be found in a collection. this error happens when you try to retrieve an element from a collection on a container during the execution of the package

Why does XML Source in MS VS 2005 Integration Services Data Flow Sources XML Source not pick up the root element?
The problem is the following example: <root createddate="2008-01-01"> <elements> ... </elements </root>
The XML Source picks up everything after the first element which is the root element but it does not seam to pick up the root element where there is a need for the createddate attribute.
Is there a soultion for this problem or a workaround?
Hi, I have simple report with RS 2005. I use matrix component. I€™ve added €œSubtotal€? element to the row and It works perfect. But I would like to make some modification to it and I€™m looking for expression of it, but I can€™t find it - there's just "TOTAL". Also On layout page I see text box €œTOTAL€? and that€™s all. Where can I find it? Thank you Tomasz
I have created 2 packages in BIDS, these are both working fine. I am trying to deploy to the server using the Package installation wizard, but I am stopped by an error stating "Could not save package" and "Element not found".
I use an XML source to integrate an XML file into my db. My problem is that in my XML source component, the global element of my XML file does not appear in the Input/Output (The XSD file was generated using the same component). This global element contains attribute which I want to integrate in a table.
RDL/SRS - Is there a way to tag a reference on a data element?
For example, let€™s say that each data element in column 5 is the result of some equation applied to the elements in columns 1 through 4. The field in column 6 is a function applied to the resulting value from column 5. Is there a way to tag a reference on the column 5 data elements, so they can be referenced from column 6 without reapplying the whole function used to derive column 5 in the first place?

A branching element is critical to any process flow. Currently, as far as I know, there;s only a Conditional Split Data Flow Element. There is no direct way I can branch out in a control flow.
In some cases, I could branch by using a conditional operator ?: to either create a dynamic sql string for each patch, or a package name for a Package Execution task and so on.
This approach is not always good enough.
Are there others out there who want a Conditional Control Flow element?
I'm trying to set the value of the SelectedDatabases collection property of an Update Statistics Task using an expression for the task, basing it on a user variable. Ultimately, I'll set that variable's value from a configuration file at run time and thereby specify the database whose statistics I want to update.
When I set this up in the designer, I get an error at the time I try to save the package:
TITLE: Microsoft Visual Studio ------------------------------
Nonfatal errors occurred while saving the package: Error at Update Statistics Task: The result of the expression "@[User::SelectedDatabase]" on property "SelectedDatabases" cannot be written to the property. The expression was evaluated, but cannot be set on the property.
Error at Update Statistics Task: The result of the expression "@[User::SelectedDatabase]" on property "SelectedDatabases" cannot be written to the property. The expression was evaluated, but cannot be set on the property.
------------------------------ BUTTONS:
OK ------------------------------
I used the expression editor's expression builder to select the user variable, so I assume the syntax is correct. However, I'm suspecting that there's some additional syntax required to store that value in the collection's array. I cannot find any references to any special formats and am wondering if anyone know's how to do this correctly. On the other hand, maybe it is telling me setting this property from an expression is not even allowed. If it's not allowed, why is it in the list of properties to set? In any case, none of this is clear.
Hi All, I receive data in the form of xml file and it has one to many relationships. Below I am giving you the sample node and how it should be parsed. Please suggest whether this is possible in SSIS using XML Task if not pls suggest a fast and efficient method. <Element1> <SubElement1>S1</SubElement1> <SubElement2>S2</SubElement2> .. .. <SubElement20> <Child1>c1</Child1> <Child2>c2</Child2> </SubElement20> <SubElement20> <Child1>c3</Child1> <Child2>c4</Child2> </SubElement20> .. .. <SubElement25> <SubElement25Child1>s25_One</SubElement25Child1> </SubElement25> <SubElement25> <SubElement25Child1>s25_Two</SubElement25Child1> </SubElement25> </Element1> The above one is a sample xml. I should get 8 rows for the above element. There are 2 elements with "SubElement20" and it has 2 childs each. So there are 4 such nodes. The element "SubElement25" occured 2 times. Now we need to multiply these two counts.i.e. 4 * 2 = 8. The relationship in the xml is one to many. After parsing the xml I should get the rows in the following format and it should be one to one mapping only. S1, S2, ....c1,... s25_One S1, S2, ....c1,... s25_Two S1, S2, ....c2,... s25_One S1, S2, ....c2,... s25_Two S1, S2, ....c3,... s25_One S1, S2, ....c3,... s25_Two S1, S2, ....c4,... s25_One S1, S2, ....c4,... s25_Two The options are as follows 1) Writing a custom source component to parse this xml and produces the rows in the specified way. 2) First write a XSLT or Style Sheet to break the above one to many relationships to one to one relationships and create an xml file and then use native SSIS xml parser. 3) Using the Script Task as the source component and do the parsing. But I think it would be difficult to handle and maintain.
If any other suggessions please share. Thanks in advance. Regards Venkat.

I have do a sql function for return a list of element from a query send in variable.
When I test the function on self I have no problem.
But when I use the function in a sql query I have problem.
example :
Code SnippetSELECT APPLI_SUPPLIER.N_SUPPLIER_ID, APPLI_SUPPLIER.V_SUPPLIER_LABEL, dbo.APPLI_RETURN_LIST_ITEM('SELECT DISTINCT APPLI_CONSTRUCTION.V_PROCESS_CODE FROM APPLI_CONSTRUCTION INNER JOIN APPLI_SUPPLIER_SKILL ON APPLI_CONSTRUCTION.N_SUPPLIER_ID = APPLI_SUPPLIER_SKILL.N_SUPPLIER_ID WHERE (APPLI_CONSTRUCTION.V_PROCESS_CODE IS NOT NULL) AND (APPLI_SUPPLIER_SKILL.N_SKILL_ID IN (2,3,4,5,6))') AS V_PROCESS_ITEMS FROM APPLI_SUPPLIER INNER JOIN APPLI_SUPPLIER_SKILL ON APPLI_SUPPLIER.N_SUPPLIER_ID = APPLI_SUPPLIER_SKILL.N_SUPPLIER_ID WHERE (APPLI_SUPPLIER_SKILL.N_SKILL_ID IN (2, 3, 4, 5, 6))
This is the error :
Server: Msg 557, Level 16, State 2, Procedure APPLI_RETURN_LIST_ITEM, Line 24 Only functions and extended stored procedures can be executed from within a function.
When I do an exec of the function I have this problem :
Code Snippet exec APPLI_RETURN_LIST_ITEM('SELECT DISTINCT APPLI_CONSTRUCTION.V_PROCESS_CODE FROM APPLI_CONSTRUCTION INNER JOIN APPLI_SUPPLIER_SKILL ON APPLI_CONSTRUCTION.N_SUPPLIER_ID = APPLI_SUPPLIER_SKILL.N_SUPPLIER_ID WHERE (APPLI_CONSTRUCTION.V_PROCESS_CODE IS NOT NULL) AND (APPLI_SUPPLIER_SKILL.N_SKILL_ID IN (2,3,4,5,6))')

I have XP Pro SP2 with MDAC 2.8.1022. It had a problem so I tried to reinstall MDAC and got a Fatal Setup Error. This setup does not support installing on this operating system. I downloaded MDAC 2.8 1177 and get the same error.
I thought of uninstalling/reinstalling SP2, but this is a 2 month old Dell Latitude 610 with factory installed XP. There is no Windows Service Pack 2 option listed in the Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs.
There's some other strange things, so I wonder if they are related.
1) I have Paul set up as an administrator account. Some folders like MSSQL show that account with no permissions. I grant all the permissions to Paul for that folder. I come back later and the permissions are gone.
2) I deleted 20 files in Explorer, but 7 of them did not go away. I deleted those 7 again and they instatnly reappeared. I deleted those 7 again and then they finally went away.
3) I get a slow reaction time for things like Windows Explorer and opening and closing programs. This is suprising since it has 2 gig of RAM and 2.3 Gig processor. Could it be a memory handling problem that's causing OS problems. Probably, the memory didn't handle the OS installation well and the whole system is compromised now.
We're doing upgrades from SQL 2008 R2 to SQL 2014. This is blocked due to RS is installed but not configured. Our desired action is to uninstall RS and proceed with the upgrade. But when setuparp.exe is raised, it does not list all the features on the 'Select Features' page. In fact, it only lists the last 2 shared features (SQ Client Connectivity SDK and Microsoft Sync Framework). However, all items appear to be listed on the 'Select Instance' page including RS. I've seen this issue on 2 of our SQL 2008 R2 Servers already.
