We have a reporting server which was working fine. All of a sudden me ( admin) and the users who have content manager permissions donot see the properties tab on the web interface and I donot find the permissions tab. I also get "you are not authorized to access this page" error on systemsecurity page.
If I disable the allow anonymous access option from the directory security in IIS, me and the person with content manager permissions see the properties/permissions tab but users are getting 401 unauthorized error while accessing the reports ( some of them are configured as content managers).
Not sure what happend and what to do .... any help would be greatly appreciated.
I have been looking at forums trying to resolve my problem and now my brain hurts. I really need help with this and no one seems to have a definitive answer.
When launch Reporting Services, the page is blank and the settings options are missing. Even though I am logged on to the server with a local admin account.
I have tried taking off annonymous access but when I do this I just get the page can not be displayed.
Also when connecting to ReportingServices through the Management Studio I get the following message:
The permissions granted to user 'servernameusername' are insufficient for performing this operation. (rsAccessDenied) (Report Services SOAP Proxy Source)
The permissions granted to user 'Servernameusername' are insufficient for performing this operation. (rsAccessDenied) (Report Services SOAP Proxy Source)
Any help on this would be much appreciated. I really need to get this sorted out.
We have a SQL 2012 SSRS instance. We need to modify the permissions on one of the reporting folders. I went to the Security setting of the folder, clicked "New role assignment", then entered a group name into the box and selected desired permission ("Browser" in this case).
However this always fails with the same error: "The user or group name 'BUILTINBUILTIN' is not recognized. (rsUnknownUserName)"
I always get the same error no matter if I enter user or group, domain or local. And it always says BUILTINBUILTIN. I've tried changing the SSRS service account to a domain account (it was a local one), but that didn't work.
User 'DMNServerBreanch' does not have required permissions. Verify that sufficient permissions have been granted and Windows User Account.Control (UAC) restrictions have been addressed.
.NET Permissions Error in Reporting Services when not using a custom assembly: I need help resolving a permissions error I€™m taking in a SQL RS 2005 report. I have a report that that is includes the following code fragment in Report Properties -> Code: Function rtf2text(ByVal rtf As String) As String Dim rtfcontrol As New System.Windows.Forms.RichTextBox Try rtfcontrol.Rtf = rtf Return rtfcontrol.Text Catch ex as Exception Return ex.Message End Try End Function I reference the .NET System.Windows.Forms DLL under Report Properties -> References -> References, Assembly Name (heading): System.Windows.Forms, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089 I have a text box with the following expression: =code.rtf2text(First(Fields!EndingQuoteComment.Value, "QuoteHeader")) And I€™ve verified, by removing the code.rtf2text command that is populated with the following: { tf1ansiansicpg1252deff0deflang1033{fonttbl{f0fromanfprq2fcharset0 Times New Roman;}{f1fnilfcharset0 Arial;}} viewkind4uc1pardif0fs32 ** Ending Quote Comments **par 0i0f1fs17par } When I run the preview in Visual Studio is correctly strips the RTF and displays just €œ** Ending Quote Comments **€?.

I finally put together a Win 2003 box with SQL 2005, IIS, and RS 2005 running on it in a virtual machine to be 100% sure I had a standard clean install and deployed the report and I€™m getting the same error. Below I€™ve included a basic standalone RDL file that demonstrates my issue. I get the error referenced above when I deploy the RDL below. Any ideas or suggestions are greatly appreciated?

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 attempting to obtain a cost effective solution for my existing customers to develop reports on their SQL 2000 Server installations using their Reporting Services 2000. With products like Visual Basic.NET 2003 becoming almost impossible to obtain, I have at least one customer who is running into a dead end.
One option possibly is the SQL Express with Advanced Services download, which has Reporting Services. My questions are as follows:
Can the report designer component of SQL Express Reporting Services be configured to connect to an external database (which would happen to be a SQL 2000 database) to establish its datasets? Does the resultant designed report end up in an RDL file? If the customer published this report via the Reporting Services 2000 Report Manager, would the report be able to run?
Sorry for asking a question like this that I could probably answer on my own, but my customer needed this answer yesterday. I have scoured the web and microsoft sites - and posted a question on the official SQL Reporting Services cateogy ... in an attempt to answer the basic question of how to design reports for Reporting Services 2000 in the absence of Visual Basic.NET 2003 (or other .NET 2003 tools) with no success.
Hello, I want to see the permissions assigned for all objects (tables, views, stored procedures) in all my databases. Has anyone written a script to do this? Just thought I'd ask before reinventing the wheel. I'm on SQL Server 7.0. Thanks, Dan
Hi. I created user: "Reporter" This User is set as my anonomoys login user in IIS 6.0. I gave him permissions on both the database server & the Report server, however I keep getting an error. "The permissions granted to user 'SRVRReporter' are insufficient for performing this operation. (rsAccessDenied).
I inherited the task of syncing up these new reports & I'm trying to follow what the last guy did (not exactly though, that's why I created the new user)
I gave the new user login rights on both servers as well as access to the SQL 2005 database. I have the identity impersonate="true"
Can anyone out there tell me what permission I need to grant to get my reports to run?
I have a server with a dozen or so databases created by a 3rd party for some software that we've purchased. Because of the mess involved I've created a separate database for reporting purposes contains a large number of objects that reference the other databases using 3-part naming.
Now I'm on to securing this stuff up.
- I don't want my users having any write permissions so have added them to the db_denydatawriter role.
- I don't want them having access to certain schemas within the reporting database so have granted select and execute permissions to the specific schemas.
I like simple.
Unfortunately because of the 3 part naming they require access to the other databases... but I would love to not have to do this as I want to force them in to using the objects I have created.
I work in a big project and we will begin in using reporting services as the base technique for reports and I will be responsible for this part. but I have a problem I will discuss in the following:
Currently: We use currently devexpress reports and we have 2 languages(Arabic and English). the data in tables saved in two ways (Arabic and English). when the end user change the language of the web site the report data language changed when run it.
Example:
we have table with (ID, NAME_AR, NAME_EN, JobTitle_AR, JobTitle_EN). designed report will display(ID, NAME_EN, JobTitle_EN) . but the end user change the language of the system the report will
I have created a Linked Server to an Access DB on a Novell 6.5 server. The Windows 2003 server with SQL 2005 Server on it is logged in as a Novell user with appropriote rights to the folder where the mdb is stored. The mdb is unsecured.
EXEC sp_addlinkedserver @server = 'JetShowData', @provider = 'Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0', @srvproduct = 'OLE DB Provider for Jet', @datasrc = 'k:groupssalesshowfiles2007 Show.mdb'
I have successfully created the link and queried the mdb while logged into SQL as Administrator using Windows Autentication. I have set up permissions for another SQL user account (I think) to use the linked server? I have added the linked server login as folllows:
This should allow any user to access the linked server. I did try adding a login for a specific SQL user account (sp_addlinkedsrvlogin 'JetShowData', false, 'cbonallo', 'Admin', NULL) but that did not make any difference.
The error I am getting when I try to either test the connection or run a query is the same one I was getting when I had the MSSQLSERVER service running under a local account( I had to change is so that SQLSERVER had network access rights):

This Access db does not have a workgroup file becasue it is unsecured. This error is being reported incorrectly since it is the exact same one when SQL did not have permissions to access the network. I also tried it from another Windows Autenticated user account and got this message:

I'm thinking I need to somehow I need to give the user account network access rights, too?? Or some other permissions? Any help will be greatly appreciated!!
Our DBA has installed reporting services on a server and now in order to access the report manager, one has to be an Admin on that Server. I am guessing that there is a mistake in the configuration of Reporting Services. Usually it should allow anybody who was added to the roles in the properties section of the Report Manager, right? I have also added the users to the DB..
Also I am using Windows Authentication to access Report Catalog items (Reporting Services is installed on Server2) from a web Application(deployed on Server1) and displaying the report using report viewer. For some reason, server1 has to be in an Admin role on Server2 to access the report catalog/report. This is kinda strange for me as I don't want everybody to be an Admin on Server2. Can anybody please point in the right direction?
We have installed SQL Server 2005 with reporting services.When tried to open getting errors as below: how to avoid such errors See the end of this message for details on invoking just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

I have some problem about reporting service add-in.
After I install reporting service add-in for SharePoint, reporting service menu does not appear in Application Management Tab in SharePoint Central Administration.
I try to uninstall and re-install again, it remain not work.
We've got a requirement to build the real time report. user can browse report at any point of time and need to see the latest data(stock market) in the report.
I've few options down...
1. Directly point to OLTP database as source and write stored procedure to show result set.
2. Replicate the database and write the SP's to reports. To avoid pointing directly to OLTP db.
3. To build the datawarehouse with dim & facts to show it in reports. I prefer this as a standard method, but this would have some latency depending on trasaction load which will differ from the requirement.
We are required to gather certain information regarding reporting services.
Which reports were requested, by whom , how long did they run for, what parameters were passed etc etc.
I see that the system tables do provide some of this information, is there a 3rd party tool or something we can use to gather all this type of information for us?
Hi, I have just install SQL 2005 SP2 and trying to get Window SharePoint Services V3 integrated with SQL 2005 SP2 reporting services. In SharePoint Central Administration, I select the Reporting Services Integration page and have setup the Report Server Web Service URL and Authentication Mode. I then goto Grant database access, specify the SQL server name, get promted for a username and password that has access SQL Reportserver and get the following error "The group name could not be found" Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks
We built our prod server [vm] with SQL Server 2008 R2 on Server 2008 R2. It works nicely. Then we made a copy of the VM and renamed it (so our test environment would be IDENTICAL to production). After that, SSRS was broken: I get "HTTP Error 503. The service is unavailable." I can't connect via http, or SSMS.
We have tried:
*Â Running SSRS config tool (several times)
* Running with/without the IIS Server Role
*Â Dropping & recreating the SSRS keys
*Â Recreating the ReportServer database, etc
*Â Checking all of the accounts, permissions, etc
*Â Running SQL Repair
*Â Going through the registry to fix any references to the machine's old name
*Â Uninstalling, reinstalling SSRS
* Completely uninstalling ALL of the parts of SQL Server 2008 R2, deleting all directories, removing references to SQL Server from the registry, rebooting, reinstalling everything.
None of this has worked. SSRS [R2] is still 503 on our test box.
the SSRS [NT] service seems to run, without error. The Event Viewer doesn't seem to be recording any errors. The SSRS logs say that the default URL is wrong, but we get the same error in Prod, and Prod works fine. The other SQL Logs say something about not being able to contact the service. However, as I said, the [NT] service seems to be working fine.
I think I've seen a similar post on a blog or on the forums - but it seems like this should be possible -
I have an MDX query - that works fine in SQL Enterprise Manager, and has my dimension members on columns, and my measures on the rows. When I try the same query in Reporting Services, I get the error:
"The query cannot be prepared: The query must have at least one axis. The first axis of the query should not have multiple hierarchies, nor should it reference any dimension other than the Measures dimension.. Parameter name: mdx (MDXQueryGenerator)"
Although it works when you pivot the view, I really need my data presented with the members on the columns and the measures on the rows. Another forum post mentioned using the SQL 9.0 driver, but I can't see this listed anywhere (the only one I see is the .NET framework Data Provider for Microsoft Analysis Services).
Here's what my query looks like -
SELECT { [Time].[Month].&[2006-09-01T00:00:00] , [Time].[Month].&[2006-10-01T00:00:00], [Time].[Month].&[2006-11-01T00:00:00], [Time].[Month].&[2006-12-01T00:00:00] } on COLUMNS, { [Measures].[Unique Users], [Measures].[UU Pct 1], [Measures].[UU Pct 2], } ON ROWS FROM [Cube]
I'm trying to create reports in RS2005 using AS2000 as my data source. I understand that if I use RS2005 on AS2000, I wont be able to enjoy the OLAP based parameters as in using AS2005. Does anyone know an easy way to easily use Parameters in RS2005 while still using AS2000?
I'm using Reporting Services 2005 SP1 and wrote some code to render reports server-side. My sample report has few parameters that must be passed so I pass these parameters with code.
byte[] report = rs.Render("PDF", "<DeviceInfo><Toolbar>False</Toolbar></DeviceInfo>", out extension, out mimeType, out encoding, out warnings, out streamID); </My code>
Actually, I have several more parameters but I've checked the collection and all the parameters I want are there and have values. Their names match those found in executionInfo.Parameters. But when I run my code I get the following error on Render():
<Error> "This report requires a default or user-defined value for the report parameter 'pClass'. To run or subscribe to this report, you must provide a parameter value. ---> This report requires a default or user-defined value for the report parameter 'pClass'. To run or subscribe to this report, you must provide a parameter value. ---> This report requires a default or user-defined value for the report parameter 'pClass'. To run or subscribe to this report, you must provide a parameter value." </Error>
I've double-checked and my parameter array does have the problematic parameter, I passed it a value but when I check executionInfo.Parameters I see that it's the only parameter that hasn't been give a default value after calling SetExecutionParameters(). So my parameters do seem to be passed but one seems to refuse getting a value. If I comment out the SetExecutionParameters() line I get, as expected a similar error but on another parameter (first one in the executionInfo.Parameters collection). So I'm left to beleive that the SetExecutionParameters() has some kind of bug as it works for all but one parameter. I've checked casing, spelling, tried passing phony parameters and from what I've seen I should be getting an error when I pass the parameters if I got something wrong.
I am invoking RS web services to render reports, using Apache Axis to generate stub classes from Reporting Service WSDL.
Please let me know if I can integrate Report Viewer control in the jsp where I am writing the report output. Else do I have to create my own custom tags simulating ReportViewer functionality.
My requirement for the parameter is multivalue parameter with a text box. for example when user enters aa15 it need to include product aa15. when the user enters aa15, aa16, zz15 than it needs to include all the three products. the last case is when the user enters AA** than i need to inclued all the products start with AA. when i use default multivalue parameter with data source analytical services than i am getting a drop down box. I dont want that. I need a text box where user can enter the value. 1. In sql we have a like key word to query . for example select * from product where product like "AA%". what is equavalent mdx query to get such results ? 2.How to impliment the multivalue parameters without using dropdown box?
I am facing sever Refresh issue in PPS Reports. I have Two Dashboard
Dashboard_One and Dashboard_Two
I have few Filters on both the Dashboard .
In Dashboard_One I have 2 Filters
1)Year filter where Year 2012 is my Default value 2)City Filter where "CityOne" is Default Filter Value
If I select Year"2010" in Period Filter and "CityTwo" In City Filter.I see Related reports . Now I navigate to Dashboard_Two to See Other Reports where I have few Other Filter Like "Country" where I select "CountryThree" . When I navigate Back to Dashboard_one I do not see Dashboard with Default value given to them
I still see Filter value Year=2010 and CountryFilter="CountryTwo" in Dashboard Dashboard_One .. where as I should have seen it based on the Default value given to the Filter.. How should I resolve this refresh issue which I am facing in PPS Dashboard. I do not see Default value in the Filter ,It always give the filter value which was selected later when Navigated back.
I started my Reporting Server and if I use the Internet Explorer as a Administrator everything works fine.But if I don't open it as an admin it calls "rsAccess Denied The user [...] does not have the permission...".Problem is that I want to run it in an SAP Program with an HTML Viewer. how I can get those Permissions ?By the way somehow I'm not able to create or change roles in the Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio.
i have a small problem with the data sources in the reporting services, maybe you can clarify the situation... I have a MS CRM 3 solution with the reporting services 2005 installed. From an other vendor we have a arcplan solution on the 2000 analysis services. I would like to get access from the 2005 reporting services to the 2000 cube. Is this possible? Ive read that the SSMS cant connect to the 2000 cubes. Can i connect from the reporting services??
