Reduce Size Of Reporting Services Report Within Sharepoint Web Part
Mar 14, 2007
I have a Reporting Services report available in a Windows Sharepoint Services webpart. The report is too large to display in the webpart window requiring the user to use the scroll bars. Is there any way to reduce the size of the report so that fits completely within the webpart without using scroll bars?
I have downloaded and was trying to install the Reporting Services Sharepoint web part. As mentioned in the installation instructions I have uninstalled the previous version and then started the install. After starting to install the installation Rolls back and fails.
I have checked the logs and i get the error
The web configration file, C:Program FilesCommon FilesMicrosoft SharedWeb Server Extensions12configwebconfig.dlc.xml, does not have element "configuration/configSections/sectionGroup[@name='SharePoint']" or it is invalid.
Works fine in Visual Studio. Once deployed to SharePoint though, the drill through returns an error that says report can't be found. So I added the .rdl to the conditional statement in the report Design.
I've been running around in circles all afternoon trying to create one simple report using Reporting Services (with latest SP2 installed) and SharePoint 2007. To the best of my knowledge, I have everything configured correctly:
When I access http://<server>/ReportServer, I see the server name of my SharePoint site. When I click on the name of my SharePoint site, it shows me the directory structure I have created within my SharePoint Site When I drill down in the directory, I can ultimately see the forms I created in my forms library (created via InfoPath 2007).
The next step is to create one simple report from the data in one of these forms libraries and a report on all the items within a form library. I'm stuck at the first step of creating a report, namely what to enter as the Data Source and the connection string. With a SQL database this isn't an issue.
How does one create a data source that will allow reporting over SharePoint content with the setup described above? And, if you have information that is found in the SQL Books Online, please be kind and post links so others know where to find this information.
whenever I try to create a PowerView report on an existing powerpivot- excel sheet I get following error:"An error occurred while loading the model for the item or data source 'xxx'. Verify that the connection information is correct and that you have permissions to access the data source."Â Error details:
<detail><ErrorCode xmlns="http://www.microsoft.com/sql/reportingservices">rsCannotRetrieveModel</ErrorCode><HttpStatus xmlns="http://www.microsoft.com/sql/reportingservices">400</HttpStatus><Message xmlns="http://www.microsoft.com/sql/reportingservices">An error occurred while loading the model for the item or data source 'http://intranet/PowerPivot/PowerPivot-Galerie/Mappe1.xlsx'. Verify that the connection information is correct and that you have permissions to access the data source.</Message>
[code]...
When I try to open the PowerPivot sheet form Power Pivot Gallery and click on any filter I receive following message:Â An error occurred during an attempt to establish a connection to the external data source. The following connections failed to refresh: PowerPivot Data.
I have a set of SSRS reports published on the server. It can be accessed through a web application or through SharePoint. Most of the reports work fine through both - web app and SharePoint. However, one of the report, which returns large amount of data has some problem:
1. It generates fine from web app 2. It generates fine from SharePoint; only if one or two values selected from Filter dropdown 3. However, if all items (about 20 items) selected from Filter dropdown... and click on View Report, it processes for a while and then shows nothing. The page remains blank.
Did some research and felt the problem is with Distributed Cache Service.
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 have created an report which retrieve data from table which contains a datetime field. The data of that particular field is stored in UTC time. when i navigating the report from sharepoint site i wish the datetime field will be converted into local time based on the selected timezone of the user.
issue where SSRS reports being executed from a report library in SharePoint intermittently are reloaded after hitting the apply button to run. Â We are using SSRS 2010 and SharePoint 2013 in integrated mode. So a user clicks on the report, fills in the parameters and hits apply. Maybe 70% of the time the report runs fine. Â The other 30% the report just reloads and wipes out any parameter selections. We do have a load balancer in front of the web servers.
I've ran fiddler to capture some of the error logging.
Things we have tried. Multiple versions of IE 8,9,10,11, Firefox, Chrome. Â All browsers seem to exhibit the behavior.
We ran so more traffic monitoring and it doesn't appear on these refreshes that report actually connects to the data context so it seems to be failing prior to that. (Possibly at the SharePoint server. Logging from the server apparently didn't show much in terms of when this occurred) It doesn't seem to matter if the report has 1 or 10 parameters.Â
We did notice that when we took the load balancer out of the equation and just hit the web server directly, the refreshes "appeared" to decrease in regularity but still occur.Also, the reports do not exhibit the refresh issue when running locally within Visual Studio 2013.
So I get the basics, have a script that can deploy a single report to a single server. I have other simple scripts that work as well. Now I want a script that can deploy a single report to multiple Sharepoint servers. I have about 30. I know we are probably doing this wrong, as in, we shouldn't be deploying the same report to 30 sites, as they are all all technically all on the same server however they are all independent site collections so as far as I know there is no way to deploy them to a central location and then link to them from each site.
So I tried to copy elements of my single report deploy script and duplicate the Sub Main() to Sub Main1() and Sub Main2() with multiple "ParentPath1" dims, yes I know I'm stupid. That obviously didn't work. So looking at some other scripts including my own subscription updater and I'm sure I need to do some kind of "For Each item in X" but where to start. The other lists I've seen all come from rs.Something. My list is just 30 variables in the script, how can I say for each site in this list, Publish this report?
Here's the simple script that works fine. I just don't know how to modify it to make it deploy this to multiple sites. After I figure that out, I was going to accept the challenge of deploying multiple reports to multiple sites in a single script...
Dim warnings As Warning() = Nothing Dim parentFolder As String = "Reports" Dim filePath As String = "filepath" Dim reportName As String = "Report file name" Dim parentPath As String = "Sharepoint site URL" Public Sub Main()
We have SSRS reports (pointing to SQL 2012) containing cascading parameters that we have deployed on SharePoint 2013 and once a user makes a selection to the parent parameter, child parameters are getting refreshed based on the selection in the parent parameter and then we see this:
Once we hit Apply, the Loading image comes up and approximately10 seconds later, The whole webpage gets refreshed and the parameter selections get reset to default parameters.Â
This is getting frustrating because there are about 10 parameters in the report and once a user makes selections and hit apply if the page gets reset, the user has to make all the selections again.
We are working with Microsoft support on this who suggested us to increase the timeout setting of DistributedCache service on all our SharePoint servers which did seem to work initially but I do see this issue happening occasionally.
I get the following error when I try to navigate to a report/model/data source, stored in a Sharepoint Document Library using a Sharepoint URL based on an Extranet or Intranet zone - but it works OK using the url for the Default zone:
System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException: The specified path refers to a SharePoint zone that is not supported. The default zone path must be used. ---> Microsoft.ReportingServices.Diagnostics.Utilities.SecurityZoneNotSupportedException: The specified path refers to a SharePoint zone that is not supported. The default zone path must be used.
Is this a limitation of the SQLRS-WSS3 integration or is there a workaround?
Is it possible to connect to the Report Viewer web part in SharePoint? This is the SharePoint integrated guy. I am displaying a report. I'd like to have links in the report that cause a sub-report or even a custom web page to open in another web part on the same page.
Has anyone been successful in configuring the Hyperlink Target property in the SSRS Sharepoint Web Part? I've tried every setting, including _blank, yet the behavior does not change.
Am I doing something incorrectly or is this not implemented correctly?
In one of my SSRS report under body properties default size (width = 34.54712cm , height = 20.92853cm ). I've tried to reduce the size to width = 26cm ,height = 18 . once i changed. the width its going to the same orginal size again.
I need add an report of type "Power View" in Web Part of Site of Sharepoint.What is category chose in Web Parts to add an report of type Power View ?My objective is create an tree menu with links to specific sites (created for me) that have web parts with "Power View".
For developing a report I'm using SQL Server 2000 with SP4 & MS Visual Studio .Net 2003. After expoting a report in excel format file, the size of the excel file is so much big that while openning the report file it seemed to be hanged the PC.
Is there any way to reduce the size of the excel in reporting services?
I am working on complex invoice document that handles various types of invoicing, credit, and progress bill customer facing documents. Â I am faced with same problem I see many SSRS devs posting on. Â And that is extra blank pages, being generated because the report width exceeds the width of the page.
My problem is I cannot shrink the horizontal width of the tablix and therefore the report width either...
While I would have done things differently if developing from scratch, the tablix in question has only one column and objects contained in rectangles are placed in the row/column cell.....The link to the image below shows the row I am currently working on. Â Essentially all the client wants a columnar report with column lines, closed footers, etc... Â so rather redoing the whole tablix, which I still might do, I am using rectangles with the column then lining them up. Â Anyway, that is a whole 'nuther post. Â My specific questions are: Â
Invoice in Report Builder
1. In the image I have selected the parent rectangle. Â The children are other rectangles and the data is with grandchildren textboxes that exist within those rectangles. Â I clearly have a bit of right side white space in the main parent rectangle, but there is no sizing tool on a hover... just move tool. Â And if I change the rectangle size in the prop form it just snaps back to the cell width. Â How do I size the parent rectangle and keep if from expanding.
Here I am guessing that to actually reduce the horizontal width of tablix and then the report, I have to first decrease the parent width of the rectangles that occur in each row?
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.
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

I have SQL Server 2005 SP2 installed and Reporting Services Addin configured. I am trying to publish a report from BIDS to SharePoint... but a box continues to pop up asking me for credencials.
What am I doing wrong? I have reviewed all the web.config files as per an earlier post referenced, but I only see one entry in the config file for the location tag. However, I did see this tag in two config files... not certain if that is something I should be concerned with?
I'd really like to just get a sample report up on the Sharepoint Server so I can move forward.
I am using MOSS 2007 and Reporting Services 2005. Integration part worked. But my existing report (analysis service report) with cascading parameter doesn't work in sharepoint. Every time you select a parameter you have click "Apply" to see the the cascading parameter. Is this a bug with report viewer webpart, because this works on regular sql 2005 rs viewer.
I was wondering if it's possible to use a sharepoint list as datasource in reporting services ? If yes, what's your trick ? Is it possible to use a directory as datasource in reporting services ?
I configured Reporting Services in SharePoint Integrated Mode at a client and am running into an issue as described in this article: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/942530. I got the Cumulative Patch 4 (and 5) for SQL Server 2005 SP2 from Microsoft and applied it to the Reporting Services box. However, I€™m still seeing the same issue. Has anyone else run into this issue and resolved it?
I'm trying to install SharePoint 2007 and Reporting Services 2005 on the same server. However after installation Reporting Services will not load at http://localhost/Reports. Instead I get the following error:

I assume that something is wrong with my virtual server set up. I have the Default Web Site stopped and SharePoint (80) running and set Reports and ReportServer using the Report Configuration to SharePoint (80).
I can get to http://localhost/ReportServer but I get this error when running a report from there: Reporting Services Error
An internal error occurred on the report server. See the error log for more details. (rsInternalError) Get Online Help
The type Microsoft.SharePoint.Portal.Analytics.UI.ReportViewerMessages, Microsoft.SharePoint.Portal, Version=12.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=71e9bce111e9429c does not implement IReportViewerMessages or could not be found
Has anyone set these up on the same server? Is there a document around on how to set this up?
I'm trying to create a subscription that places a file (excel or PDF) in sharepoint. I haven't been able to find a path that works. I was wondering if anyone else had had this issue and how they overcame it.
I have a Reporting Services implementation setup to run in Native mode. Reports on the server are being accessed through a Sharepoint website that has a Report Viewer control.
This is posing a problem because after the user logs into Sharepoint, they are again prompted to login to the report server. Is there a way to pass the users Sharepoint credentials to the report server to prevent this double login prompt?
