Printing In Reporting Services Hangs
Jul 3, 2007
Please Help!!!
We have never been able to get the printing to work on any of our reports using SQL Server Reporting Services 2005 SP2 in our production environment. Without this feature of printing a report, we cannot go live with SSRS at all.
We have tried adding the SP2 after a clean install on a new server -- yet we still have this problem.
I read a few some posts about uninstall the old ActiveX control used for printing, so I did this and installed the new
one but that didn't help either.
We can print to files without issue - only when we try to print to a real printer does it hang forever.
It doesn't matter how big the report is, 100 pages or 1/4 of a page, same problem.
We do the following:
1) Run the report
2) Click the print button
3) Select a printer and press ok
4) "Printing Now..." dialog box appears
5) "Print Error" dialog appears and never goes away - and nothing is printed out.
Have to close IE and crash the report session to get out of it.
This is the result on every client computer we have ever used in trying to access
the report server.
It also hangs in running a Print Preview for all reports.
We are printing to network printers from IE6 and IE7.
Since this is on a server, we do not have a local printer to this server computer to try to print to.
Even if it worked on a local printer, this is supposed to be an enterprise solution.
Almost all of our employees print to network printers.
I am logged into my machine as a domain admin. I have no printing problems
in any program printing to any printer, except when using Reporting Services.
We are trying to print from an ASP web application which runs the reports in an iframe using URL access.
We are able to print the same reports on all of our development environments using the same ASP web application and RDL.
Again, Please help!!!

I am running SQL 2000 SP4 with Reporting Services 2000 SP2. Reporting services hangs when I try to print reports. The reports render okay, and when I click on the print icon, I get the appropriate dialog box. Once I click "OK", I get the "Printing..." dialog that says "Printing Now...", but it never prints, and the window eventually stops responding. As far as I am aware, no changes have been made to the server, and it was working fine approximately 10 days ago. Below is the contents of my RS Client Print Log (%Temp%LOG56.tmp):

I have been working on this problem for days. I have a report that is grouped
and will be printed duplex (front and back). There is a page break after each
group. I want to ensure that the start of a new group does not end up printed
on the back side of an old group. For example:
Page 1 (printed on front side of paper): group 1
Page 2 (printed on back side of paper): more group 1
Page 3 (printed on front side of paper): more group 1
Page 4 (printed on on back side of paper): group 2 <--- This is a problem
I need:
Page 1 (front side): group 1
Page 2 (back side): more group 1
Page 3 (front side): more group 1
Page 4 (back side): <This Page Intentionally Left Blank>
Page 5 (front side): group 2
Issues that I've run into include the fact that SSRS renders the entire body
first, before rendering the header/footer. This prevents the body of the
report from knowing which page it will end up on when it is rendered (and is
also why you cannot reference Globals!PageNumber from the body).
The restriction above also prevents using a variable in custom code to know
when to generate a page break. If you set this variable in the header/footer
then the body will never see it as the entire body is rendered first and will
therefore only see the initial state of the variable.
I have seen this issue posted in a number of places,
but no one ever has a solution to this (except switching back to
Crystal Reports). Have any MVPs ever addressed this issue? I am
really hoping someone can offer a good solution or work-around.

I have reports, set to print on Landscape and Legal ie 14 * 8.5. However, when certain users try to print the report, it prints it in Letter, even though the report is set to print in legal /landscape.
The strange part is that for most users it prints correctly in legal, only for some it is on letter. Any idea why this would happen?

I want to be able to grant the ability to print and export reports in Report Manager to individual users or a group of users. I know I can disable or enable printing and exporting for all users. What I would like to do is create user groups and place everyone who needs to ability to print or export into those groups.

I have a report that is a little wide, and when I export it to an Excel file it spans about 2 pages. I have it set to an 8.5 height and 11 width for printing in landscape on normal-sized paper. But is there a way to make sure that the report exports with the printing page break covering the entire width so that the report prints only one page across? The users don't want to resize in Excel before printing.

I must confess it has been a long time since I have done any SSRS reporting. I have the following SQL Statement (I will change it to a stored Procedure with parameters once I get the design done):
SELECT
rc.wo_id,
rc.process_id,
rc.item_id,
rc.lot_no AS full_lot_no,
rc.oper_id, rc.seq_no,
CAST(la.attr_value AS DECIMAL(12, 2)) AS weight,
[Code] ....
This gives me the data I want which looks like this:
Rework ID Ingot Oper ID Piece Rework
28 xxxxxx14 5 M88 Route 1
55 xxxxxxx15 5 B106 Route 2
79 xxxxxxx19 5 M68 Route 3
164 xxxxxx234 5 T16 Route 4
xxxxxx234 5 B82 Route 4
The grouping is on the Rework ID. Any of the pieces can be put on any rework route. As you can see, there are 4 routes, but 5 pieces. What I need is for each rework ID to be printed on its own paper even if there is only 1 record for the route. So I would expect 4 pieces of paper, 3 with 1 record, the 4th with two pieces. Is there a setting in the Tablix or report that I can set, or is there an expression I can use?

I have a local report for which i am binding the Dataset dynamically. I am trying to print this report using a seperate button on the page. I saw in the forums saying that the reportviewer can be converted to an EMF file, bind this to an image control and can Print this image using Javascript.
Can anyone help me with the sample code to print local report from the reportviewer (it may be in any approach.)
Thanks in advance.Sekhar T

We are accessing SSRS reports using web service. We call the Render the reports using http://<server>/ReportServer/Pages/ReportViewer.aspx?reportName&rs:Command=Render
All reports render fine. However for one particular report when we click the print button on the report viewer in IE, Active-x pops up a message "Printing Now" and hangs eternally.
The error occurs even when I am logged in with Admin privileges to the machine and Active-X client works fine for other reports except this one.
Work-around tried: If I call the same report from Report Manager it works fine. Even on the server I have been able to print the report fine.
The report is just 1 page and the data loaded is also not very heavy. Any idea why client side report printing hangs?

When creating a report using reporting Services with a cube as a datasource, visual studio 2005 hangs. I have applied SP1 to visual studio.net 2005 .
This is the query generated by query designer in reporting services. When I try to drag and drop another dimension to slice it by , visual studio hangs.
The fact table has just 10,000 records. Are the number of dimensions used to slice the cube too many? How do I optimize this query?

Hi Guys,
I am having a unique problem with the Reporting server. We are using SQL Server 2005 and we have a dedicated server for reports. I created a report for creating labels and it is workinf fine in my development environment (running it through Visual Studio) but goes way off while printing it from the reporting server. I wanted to check the rdl files in the server in which I deployed but could not find it. I would really appreciate if you can give me a solution by which label printing could be done without any problem in the server.
Thanks,
Raja

I have written an application with VB.Net. It display a report written using Reporting Rervices (rdl) in the ReportViewer Contol. When I run the application locally under windows, I can print the report just fine. When I run it under Terminal Services, sometimes it takes 2 or 3 times to print. Sometimes it never does. It looks like it prints the pages because the popup displays and it shows it is printing but it never does.
If I bring up the queue for the printer to watch when I print, then click the Print button on the the ReportView contol, I see the print enter the queue on the printer and then it is deleted but nothing prints. If I do it all again, the same thing happens but it may or may not print.
The applicatoin is written in VB.Net under Visual Studio Professional SP1.
Any and all assistance is greatly appreciated!!

Hello,
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?
Any help is appreciated

So I have been asked by our sustainability person to create report from our printing data that actually shows the number of pieces of paper used. This is easy enough for single-sided printing, but when printing in duplex the software does not take into account that 3 printing pages actually equates to 2 pieces of paper. I know this sounds simple, but say I have a print job record that looks like this:
Submitted printed total_pages duplex
8/10/2015 8/10/2015 42 1
This is a print jobs that if done correctly is actually 21 pages( duplex printing). If the job is say total_pages =5 I cant just divide by 2 because its actually using 3 pieces of paper ( yes they are wanting this data don't ask why). How can I adjust some sql to accurately depict 5 pages, front and back, as 3 pieces of paper?

I have deployed a report that is configured for landscape printing. It does print in landscape, however, only the first seven columns appear on the first page and the other five columns appear on the next page. Is there a method, like in print preview setup in MS Excel, where we can scale down the print (like to 80%) so all columns appear on each page?
Thanks!

We have an install of SQL MDS 2016 CTP3 which I can access via the web browser and create models etc. I have uninstalled the Excel add-in for 2012 and installed the MDS 2016 CTP3 add-in on Excel 2010. I am able to create a MDS connection and the "Test" reports success in Excel.
However, when I try to connect to a model via the Master Data Explorer to load an entity, Excel hangs with the message "Loading objects for xxxx_Model". My only option is to close Excel via the Task Manager.
Where do I look for more detailed logs? Is there a switch I can use to provide a better debugging experience?

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.
Thanks to anyone who can help.

I've built an SSIS package in SSDT 2014. The package was running successfully
When I close and open the package it hangs on validation of single task out of all.
OLEDB DESTINATION Task
I have tried several times to close the SSDT and open but facing same issue.
These seems like bugs in SSIS/SSDT. What would cause the relocation of some script code to hang the validation process like this?

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
dispaly(ID, NAME_AR, JobTitle_AR)
Hint:this done pragmatically
how to do this in reporting services.

Hi There,
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?
Thanks.
