Our Logo Image Appears In Designer But Not In Report Viewer
Dec 25, 2007
I created a virtual directory in IIS that points to a folder on c: where my images reside. I use a URL to reference one of those images in my report heading. It appears as it should in designer's preview tab but only as a big red X in Report Viewer from my browser.
Directory security on the virtual directory is set to Integrated Windows.
Right clicking on red x in IE7>properties shows a path to report server instead of the special virtual directory I created.
How to display the logo in middle of report header , The logo is embedded in the Image folder . The column of the report  are static. we are using SSRS 2008
I'm having some troubles getting a chart drillthrough to work correctly in the MS Report Viewer. I'm using VB.NET 2.0 in a WebApplication.
Here's what happening:
I build the report with drillthrough functionnality in a chart. When I preview it, or look at it on the report web interface (http://localhost/Reports) it works perfectly. However, once I open it in my WebApplication with the MS' ReportViewer it starts to get ugly.
The report loads the first drillpath correctly. Once I click on a bar to drill to the next drillpath, the report seems to load the data, but the image doesn't represent that as it is the old one. I can tell that the correct data is loaded since the imagemap has changed when I mouseover the chart (links are not on bars, but where they are supposed to be on the second image).
In an attempt to be clearer, here's a step by step:
1- Create the report and the drillthrough functionnality. 2- Preview it in the report builder, works perfectly. 3- Test it in the report manager (http://localhost/Reports), works perfectly.
--- 4- Load it in the MS' ReportViewer in my WebApplication, the first image in the drillpath loads correctly. 5- Click on the chart to get to the next drillpath, report reload with what seems to be the good data, but the image isn't refreshed.
So, is it possible to force an image to be reloaded with Reporting Services?
I have been using the report viewer to render my reports on a webpage. All worked fine for a time and now nothing is working correctly.
I have about ~8 report viewer on one page, all in an individual IFRAME. What happen is, sometimes I'm getting an error from IE (Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage) or the report starts loading (I see the title) but where the chart should be I have an X (broken image) icon.
Sometimes when I click on the image and choose "Display Image" the image will display.
Facts
Reports loads correctly on the report manager site (the Reporting Services webpage) Once those errors starts appearing, the session seems to act funny and I can't even refresh the webpage (F5) I have the latest report viewer patch installed I have the SP2 for SQL Server 2005 installed Running Windows 2000 Server Running IIS 6 The website was developped using IIS 5, but was tested on IIS 6 for about 3 weeks and we started to have problems today. The reports are linked with Analysis Services to get the data from cubes. I'm really out of ideas right now. Maybe I should just restart the IIS server, but the thing is live and I can't do it right now. However, if I need to restart it, will the problem occurs another time? Will it become a solution to restart the server?
I already restarted Reporting Services and nothing has changed.
This one is driving me crazy. I have followed several steps given in examples both online and in the four SRS books I own to no avail. I have created a new report.rdl template and have all the required features for our company needs, except placing the company logo as a background image in watermark style (similar to the Company Sales report that comes with the SRS report samples). I right-click on the body and in properties set the image name (URHCSlogo), it defaults to external, but I can not get it to be embedded and it will not let me set the mimetype. Could someone please give me a step-by-step method to do this? Thanks!
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,
I'm using the SSRS report designer within VS2005 and I have a .rdl report that I have placed a background form as an image background. I then have text placed on top of the form, the problem is that everything is aligned within the report designer layout view but when I go to view the report in report preview the text no longer remains vertically aligned within the background form.
This is very frustrating, and almost makes it impossible to marry up a form with report data. Any help would be appreciated.
I have a VS2005 / SQL Server 2005 report that looks fine when I run it from Visual Studio. But when a user clicks a button on my app (ASP 2.0 / VB 2005) and I have it go to the report manager site (http://servername/Reports/Pages/Folder.aspx) so they can run the report (the only report in that folder) the logo appears on the screen-rendered report as only a box w/ an "X" in it. The rest of the report is fine.
Logo.jpg is part of the project; I've tried dragging it directly to the header section, and dragging an Image control from the Toolbox to the header and going thru the wizard to specify Logo.jpg (trying both the "Embedded - the image is stored as part of the report" option and the "Project - the image is stored as part of the project" option.) The jpg is already the correct size, about 2" x 1".
If anyone has any ideas I'd be very grateful... thanks in advance.
After I use the report builder to create a generic report, how do I actually get that report into the report designer so that I can modify it more effectivly?
The issue that I have now is that the file on the report server is not a .rdl file and if I simply save it as one and then bring it into VS to modify it the code file is a html structure rater than a XML file type.
Very strange phenomenon with the "Jump to report:" Hyerlink Actions when I deployed my reports to the production servers:
The Actions no longer funcioned properly when attempting to go to one report to another. Sometimes, the same report would come up and sometimes a different report. It appeared that whatever mechanism Report Server uses to construct the proper URL when using "Jump to report:" is unreliable(or the URL is not being honored by the web-server).
All this is happening under the Report Viewer control. I have had to do a painful fix of manually constructing the entire absolute URL and including the reportviewer control in the url.
Any way to get back relative Jump to report: URL's?
We are generating excel report using report viewer at run time but if excel report having more then 65000 record generating error Microsoft. Reporting Services.OnDemandReportRendering.ReportRenderingException: Excel Rendering Extension: Number of rows exceed.
I created a custom assembly using C# to transform some binary data into text, and in this assembly I used one win32 dll developed by our customer to help me to do the tranformation. The code I used to call the win32 dll is like below: [DllImport("tdasuie.dll", EntryPoint = "AlrtLogConditionToText", ExactSpelling = false, CharSet = CharSet.Auto, SetLastError = true)] private static extern UInt32 AlrtLogConditionToText(Byte[] pbCondition, StringBuilder pszText, UInt32 dwSize);
I defined a C# method to call the above win32 method and return a string. Then in the report, I called this C# method to get the correct string.
In the report designer, the C# method in the custom assembly can return the correct string in the preview window. But after I deployed the report into the report server, the textbox will only display "#error" in the report manager web page.
I have three types of specific reports that i have to create with the input parameters (range) either
1: By date (rdl 1)
2.By Month (rdl 2)
3.By Year (rdl 3)
Is it possible ( or how do I ) to create just one report template ( one rdl) with the three sets of parameters ( hiding/invisible which ever two sets base on user selection) and the output of the report will display the desired type( either by year, month or date).
I ask this because its possible to create a drill down report from year down to date etc in report designer (vs 2005). Not sure if I can create one instead of three rdls and with the 'logic' built within that template.
I have a problem using Report Viewer With SQL Reporting Services 2005.
I had a really weird issue with a ReportViewer. It would show the little green Loading progress bar image €¦ but it wouldn€™t show any data, just a white background where the output should be. I knew the data was there because exporting to Excel or PDF showed the data just fine.
The problem is report toolbar is display but NO DATA is displayed and the report comes out as EMPTY .
Thanks in advance..
Can you please help me out in resolving this problem.
Hello, I'm using Reporting Services to render a text (stored in sql as varchar(max)). The text is all plain text, with some lines having trailing spaces.
Source text file i've imported to SQL via SSIS: CLIENT: 10055 STATEMENT 2007 DATE:1002993 THIS IS THE OTHER STATEMENT COLUMN1 COLUMN2 COLUMN 3 TRY THIS
*Note the trailing spaces on the line before 'STATEMENT 2007'.
I've designed a report using the Report Project in VS2005 to retrieve this text via a stored procedure. When I test the report using the 'Preview' tab in the IDE, it looks good CLIENT: 10055 STATEMENT 2007 DATE:1002993 THIS IS THE OTHER STATEMENT COLUMN1 COLUMN2 COLUMN 3 TRY THIS
But when I deploy the report and run it using URL Access:
CLIENT: 10055 STATEMENT 2007 DATE:1002993
THIS IS THE OTHER STATEMENT
COLUMN1 COLUMN2 COLUMN 3 TRY THIS
On all lines with trailing spaces, they (the trailing spaces) have been removed. This is affecting my formatting of some reports and statements. We really want to use the report viewer as it has built in paging, print and export capabilities.
Why does it look okay in VS2005 but different in Report Viewer via URL Access and Report Manager?
Note: When I export as PDF, it looks okay.
The stored procedure I use to return the data is a CLR Hosted assembly as below:
Code Snippet Partial Public Class StoredProcedures <Microsoft.SqlServer.Server.SqlProcedure()> _
Public Shared Sub GetPagedDocument(ByVal inText As SqlString) Dim dr As SqlDataReader Dim row As New SqlDataRecord(New SqlMetaData("RowText", SqlDbType.Text)) Dim cmd As New SqlCommand("select cast(doc as varchar(max)) as 'DOCTEXT' from testdoc WHERE id='" + inText + "'") Dim cn As New SqlConnection("context connection=true") cn.Open() cmd.Connection = cn SqlContext.Pipe.SendResultsStart(row) 'initialise the resultset to be returned dr = cmd.ExecuteReader 'If no records in result set, return. If Not dr.HasRows Then
row.SetString(0, "There is no document to display or you do not have permission to view the document.") SqlContext.Pipe.SendResultsRow(row) SqlContext.Pipe.SendResultsEnd() ' SqlContext.Pipe.Send("There is no document to display.") Return End If 'Read rows in the result set dr.Read()
'Get the entire text Dim docText As String = dr.Item("DOCTEXT") 'debug row.SetString(0, docText) SqlContext.Pipe.SendResultsRow(row) SqlContext.Pipe.SendResultsEnd() Return 'end debug
Hi I have picked up the same problem that quite a few folks have identified.
I have created a SSRS Solution and have a report which I am trying to deploy to the Report Manager. The project 'builds' locally but when I try to deploy it, a User Login Box pops up.
Has any one been able to ascertain what causes the problem and how does one go about resolving the problem. I am using Window Authentication on WIndows XP SP2 with SQL Server 2005 Developers Edition and Visual Studio 2005 Professional I have not 'tinkered' with IIS,.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. regards Steve
i just clicked on Advanced mode in Column Group, and then in Row Group Side i set Fixed Data=true for first top static. I'm using local report not server report and i'm displaying that local report in Reportviewer. Now also its not working....
I am having hard time in sending parameters to the report server through reportviewer control from my application. Could anybody help me on this issue?. Is there any way to send the parameters and also what kind of configuration do i need on my report project so that it can accept parameters from my application.
Do I need the report server running in order view a SSRS report in a report viewer control? I've created my report in .net and it works great when I'm viewing it in visual studio, but can I run it my web app without the report server.
I just installed a fresh lab machine with WSS 3.0 and SQL 2005 SP1. I registered the RS web parts.
In the home page I added the Reports Explorer and the Report viewer web parts. I set up the Reports Explorer and the list of reports are showed.
When I connect the Report Viewer Web part to get report from the Report Explorer web part I get the maintenance WSS page. I have to delete the Report Viewer web part to have the page working again.
If I use only the Reports Viewer with a report (not connected to Reports Explorer) is working just fine.
Any ideas what could be the problem? Any hints on how to investigate this is also much appreciated.

I have a reporting viewer in a windows form that behaves very strange. When I open the form and run the report it shows up nicely in the report viewer. If I print the report it only prints one page. When i print the report a second time the whole report is printed. Next I'll change the report parameters and run the report, then it shows up nicely in the viewer, but when I print the report the first report is printed.
Hi, I dont know if theres a way to print a section of some report, for example a summary report, where I have several charts and tables, and I want to print just the first 2 charts Could this be done by mapping the document or separating it in some other way?
I tried using 'SubReports' control, but this way I need to have for example the first two charts in a different report (lets say 2charts.rdl), and then in the summary.rdl, add the control and set the link to 2charts.rdl,.... but I think this is pretty annoying considering the future modifications of the format in the 2charts.rdl...
