Hi,
We are creating a small apllication ,and we want to deploy all the reports in the single server ,how to configure this server,
so that others can acces the reports in this server and also deploy their reports
- When I disable "allow remote connections to this server" from server properties>connection page, I can still remotely connect to the server from SSMS...so what is the impact of enable/disabling it?
- what is the impact of changing the remote query timeout (on the same page) from default value?
I have created and deployed a data source (which uses "Credentials supplied by the user running the report") and a model which uses this data source. Also I have built a report using Report Builder and all works well.
Now I wish to use Visual Studio to build a report, so I'm trying to create a data source from my computer which the report should use and I want it to use the model on the remote server. In the Report Wizard I am using "Report Server Model" and the following connection string:
IHowever I can't make the credentials to work. I've tried them all with no luck. What username/password must I use? Because so far nothing of what I have tried works.
I'm using SQL Express with Advance Services & I get this error when I try to deploy my reports. Why do I get this error
An error has occurred during report processing. (rsProcessingAborted)
Cannot create a connection to data source 'EDPSYS'. (rsErrorOpeningConnection)
The feature: "Remote access to report data sources and/or the report server database" is not supported in this edition of Reporting Services. (rsOperationNotSupported)
I'm attempting to install and configure Report Server for the first time.
In the "Configure Report Server" dialog box the first 5 tasks are successfully configured with green circles and check marks. ( Server Status, Report Server Virtual Directory, Report Manager Virtual Directory, Windows Service Identity, Web Service Identity)
Database Setup has a red circle with an X.
The following is returned in Task Status:

We are running SQL Server 2005 Workgroup Edition
9.00.3054.00 SP2 Workgroup Edition
It sounds like the error is saying that Report Server is not compatible with SQL Server 2005 Workgroup Edition??
When I opened "Reporting Service Configuration Manger" from SQL server configuration tool list, The "Report Server Installation Instance window came out. It showed my local machine name on the field of Machine Name. When I click "Find" button, a message box came out. It says: "No report server were found on the specified machine. Details: Invalid namespace
I would like to configure the permitted hosts setting for the Report Server. According to MSDN, the Syntax is:
 <PermittedHosts>          <HostName>Adventure-Works.com</HostName>          <HostName>hotmail.com</HostName>     </PermittedHosts>
In case of having only one host, is the <HostName> tag mandatory? I was not able to find more information regarding the xsd on which the configuration file is based. To be more specific, is it possible to define the PermittedHost like this or will this result in an error?
 <PermittedHosts>Adventure-Works.com</PermittedHosts>
I have three servers, assume ServerA,ServerB, and ServerC. ServerA is where the database(datasource) is located. ServerB is used as a report server and Server C is my local machine where I design reports. So obviously I deployed the reports from my local machine(server C) to the remote report server(server B). Deployement was successful but I got the following error when I run the report from the report server. You might think that the report is not pointing to the right data source, I checked that several times and it is pointing to the right data source.
An error has occurred during report processing. (rsProcessingAborted)
Cannot create a connection to data source 'dsCallB'. (rsErrorOpeningConnection)
For more information about this error navigate to the report server on the local server machine, or enable remote errors
However, I also observed that when I deployed the same reports on the local machine report server(server C), it run with out any problem. So it seems that the problem is related with the remote server(server B) not the data source.
[Microsoft][SQL Native Client]An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default setting SQL Server does not allow remote connections.
I have tried all of the recommendations I can find here without any luck. What am I missing?
Hello, i'v installed a pogram that uses SQLEXpress and reporting sevices on a clients computer. I can acces the reports wih http://localhost/reports$SQLEXpress from that computer, but i can't reach them from other computers in the netwok by typing http://servername/reports$SQLEXpress i am asked to imput a pasword for user "servername/guest" (which i do not know and dont think there is one) and then get the following:

I'm setting up a simple SSRS implementation for a non-profit organization, using two servers hosted at a data center. The first server has SQL Server Standard Edition and Reporting Services installed. I've designed and deployed a number of useful reports on this server.
I was hoping to isolate this first server by installing IIS and SSRS on the second server, have users browse from the Internet to that second server (over SSL, of course), and have all reports served up from databases (and, presumably, the report server database) on the first server.
During the installation of SSRS on the second server, however, I'm being prompted to specify the service account. According to the help text:
"Reporting Services. Service accounts are used to configure a report server database connection. Choose a domain user account if you want to connect to a report server database on a remote SQL Server instance. If you are using a local report server database, you can use a domain user account or Local System to run the service."
I believe I want to configure SSRS to connect to a report server database on a remote SQL Server instance; therefore, it appears that I need to enter a domain user account. The only problem is, neither server belongs to a domain; they are members of a simple two-server workgroup.
Does SSRS, configured to connect to a report server database on a remote SQL Server instance, require a domain? Does what I'm hoping to accomplish require a domain? Creating a two-server domain seems like overkill for this implementation, doesn't it?
I appreciate any comments and suggestions. Thanks!
If I look under SQL native client configuration | Client protocols, I have no entries and no ability to look at the properties of SQL Native client Configuration. Something is missing which I think is related to an error when connecting to my local server.
sqlcmd -E -S .devmain, 1064
I get error :
Encryption not support sqlcmd: Error: microsoft SQL native Client : Client unable to establish connection
An error has occurred while establish a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections..
In comparison to other machines here at work, it appears my remote connections are configured. But I have no Client Protocols under sql native client configuration, how can I get them in there?
I've recently installed Reporting Services 2005 on a Windows 2003 Server. Both have had SP2 applied and other necessary patches. I can't deploy a report from my desktop machine to the Reporting Instance. I get the following error:
=================================== A connection could not be made to the report server http://db04SSRS/ReportServer. (Microsoft Report Designer) =================================== The request failed with HTTP status 503: Service Unavailable.

Also, from SQL Server Management Studio while logged onto the Windows 2003 Server, I can connect using http://localhost/ReportServer, but I CAN NOT connect with just the servername db04SSRS. I can connect to the Analysis Services and the Database Engine with just the servername
I've seen several threads with similar issues, but none of the solutions have worked.
I have a Report Server setup on my laptop (XP Pro SP2). I have developed a report which I would like to view from a Windows Forms Application (VB.NET) using a ReportViewer. When I try it from the local machine it works correctly, but if I try to connect and preview the same report from my other PC (Vista Home Premium) I am getting the "Unable to connect to the remote server. A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because the connected host failed to respond." error.
I have setup the Processing mode to Remote and correctly setup the ReportPath and ReportServerUrl using:
With rptRetEmp .ProcessingMode = Microsoft.Reporting.WinForms.ProcessingMode.Remote .ServerReport.ReportServerUrl = New Uri("http://192.168.1.2/CPMReports") .ServerReport.ReportPath = "/CPM_Reports/Test" .ServerReport.Refresh() .RefreshReport() End With
Where CPMReports is the Report Server virtual directory and CPM_Reports is the folder where the report Test resides.
I do not know if this has anything to do with the fact that Vista Home does not have Report Services enabled or it is just a permissions problem. I have red several posts that describe similiar problems, but I could not find a solution.
I have just finished installing SQL 2005 Ent Edition on Win 2000 Adv Server, SQL2005 SP2, and SP2 Hotfix KB934458. After the installation, I could see and configure all services via SQL Configuration Manager and SQL Server Surface Area Configuration tools. This worked for a couple of days and now both configuration tools no longer detect SQL2005 components. SQL Server Surface Area Configuration issued an error that said "No SQL Server 2005 components were found on specified computer. Either no components are installed, or you are not an administrator on this computer. (SQLAC)". SQL Configuration Manager did not list any installed services. I don€™t know what caused this. Anyone has any idea? Please help! Below is the Installation Report which shows installed components.
===================================
The following components are installed on this server
It appears to work fine on my end however on my clients end, whenever they try to print a report that displays perfectly within the report viewer to their printer by selecting the printer button in the report it never ends up printing.., however if they go into printer setup and change the page range to print from all pages to just maybe one page and then select the print button it seems to print fine..
The printer seems to receive the information as the light flashes but no page kick out when all pages is selected to print..
We deployed Reporting Services recently to a customer with a latest release and build. When they type in http://<server>/ReportServer, this just comes up with a screen like a navigation sreen showing folders and links to reports. What needs to be done to get the Report Manager screen showing?
It has been a while since I actually installed Reporting Services. When they go into configuration, all of the green checks are there (except for Web Service Identity, which is Red).
I am working with a report generator that is based on SQL Server 2000 anduses ASP as the UI. Basically we have a set of reports that end users canexecute through a web browser. In general the model works fine, but we arerunning into some scaling issues.What I'm trying to determine is, what is the optimal configuration for thissystem. It is currently a 2.4G Pentium with a large RAID and 1G of RAM. Wehave been using the "fixed" memory configuration, allocating 864M to SQL.This is on a Windows 2003 server box.This works fine when a "small" query or two is executed, but the performancesuffers terribly when several users try to run reports in parallel. A singlequery might take 10 minutes to run if nothing else is happening on the box,but if additional users log on an run reports, it's almost impossible topredict when the queries will finish.I am also looking at the effect of database size on performance, runningtests against a database with 1 month, 3 months, and say 12 months of data,running the same query against 2 databases in parallel. With the originalconfiguration, the results were all over the place, with the 12 monthdatabase outperforming the smaller dbs, while other times there was littledifference. It seems that once the system starts paging, and paging heavily,it's over; the system never "recovers" and queries that previously ran in afew minutes now take hours.I added 3 G more memory to the system, and modified boot.ini to include the/3GB switch. Now when I run the same tests, the results are much moreconsistent, as the system rarely ever has to swap. Then again I've neverseen it go past 1.7G in Task manager, making me think that any more than say2.5G of memory is a waste?Things we are trying to determine are:- in the SQL Server memory configuration, is Fixed better than Dynamic? Wehave read that Dynamic is not good at returning memory to the OS once it'sbeen allocated- What else can we do to optimize the performance for this application? Itseems to me if the indexes are properly designed, the database sizeshouldn't have that much impact on performance, but this appears to be trueonly to a point. In comparing the execution plans between say a 12 month anda 3 month database, the plans are sometimes dramatically different. I assumethis is due to the optimizer deciding that going directly to the base tablesand not using an index will result in better performance, when in reality,this doesn't always appear to be true.- Are there other SQL Server switches I should be tweaking? Is there somenumber of simultaneous queries that this configuration should be limited to?- What about other versions of SQL Server (e.g. Enterprise, Data Center,etc) would these buy us anything?Thanks for any advice,-Gary
Currently within the Configuration manager you are able to set the Target Deployment parameters such as serverurl , folder etc.. However is there a way to set the Datasource within these configuration settings. For example we have Dev,Demo, and Production sql servers that ideally would be set to to switch with their corresponding deployment target areas DEV,Prod,Demo Reporting service servers. However as it stands I find myself having to manually change the datasets to point to different Servers for testing and then back to the production when its ready to roll out.
did I miss some feature that allows me to do this within the vs ide or does this have to be done programatically?
I am a complete Newbie with SQL Server 2005. Can someone help with this problem or at least point me in the right directio for diagnosing it correctly.
I'm learning the Standard SQL product on Windows XP Pro, and everything on my computer has the latest updates (from Windows Updates). I had previously installed SQL Express, but removed all products associated with that according to steps listed at Microsoft's site (pre-installation steps for SQL Server 2005 Standard, as they relate to the removal of SQLExpress).
My problem is I can't run "Reporting Services Configuration". When I try to run it, the main window opens with "Report Server Installation Instance Selection" window, and immediately I get an error box that says, "An unknown error has occurred in the WMI Provider. Error Code 80040219". When I click Ok, I'm back at the instance selection window, where my computer name is by default the machine name, but the instance name is greyed out. After the error, Event Viewer/Application gives the info below. I noticed that it refers to MSSQL.2Reporting Services - but that was the directory for SQL Express Reporting Services, according to the mapping in my registry. It shows mssql.4 as the Standard SQL Reporting Services directory

Hi, I have a problem with SQL Server 2005 Reporting Service. I installed Reporting Service in my machine. When I was trying to configure the Reporting Service, Report Manager Virtual Directory got disabled. I need to enable this Report Manager Virtual directory. I can see the disabled link for Report Manager Virtual Directory and it shows the error: Report Manager Virtual Directory is not configurable for the current mode. Kindly help me out of this problem. Thanks Subhendu

I installed 2K5 developer on my box. I was impressed with the Summary tab report functions and the reports available there. Then I ran the "Reporting services configuration" tool to get RS running, but now several of the summary reports are broken. There are several different error messages given in the summary window, depending on the report selected.
For example, the "server dashboard" now displays
Summary Unavailable
The information needed to display a summary page for the selected object is not available.
Error:
"sql_handle" is not a recognized table hints option. If it is intended as a parameter to a table-valued function, ensure that your database compatibility mode is set to 90.
The next two reports work, but the "Scheduler Health" report displays
Summary Unavailable
The information needed to display a summary page for the selected object is not available.
Error:
Incorrect syntax near '.'.
"Memory Consumption" works GREAT, but "Activity - All blocking transaction" shows:
Summary Unavailable
The information needed to display a summary page for the selected object is not available.
Error:
Incorrect syntax near '.'. Incorrect syntax near '.'. Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'as'. Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'as'.
What could be the cause of such errors? Is there an "easy fix"? I wouldn't know how to "unconfigure" reporting services and have a feeling that wouldn't help anyway...
I have Developer's Edition of SQL Server installed on my PC. I want my users to run and view my new RS report from their PCs across the network without installing SS on their machines.
We experimented a little bit by asking one user to use these URLs...http://mymachine/reports$myinstance and http://mymachine/reportserver$myinstance) after giving her browse rights in report manager from my PC.
When she uses the first URL, she gets a popup asking for sign in info, but gets nowhere when typing in her windows sign in info. When she uses the second, she gets thru to the report choices but gets an error like...
* An error has occurred during report processing. (rsProcessingAborted)
* Cannot create a connection to data source 'xxxxx'. (rsErrorOpeningConnection)
* For more information about this error navigate to the report server on the local server machine, or enable remote errors
...after choosing my report. xxxxx is the name of the only datasource in the report.
Before we began, we also turned off 'enable anonymous access' and instead clicked 'integrated windows authentication' in IIS on my pc.
My user is on a different domain controller than I am. I asked a colleague who is on the same domain controller to try the URLs and he had no problems running my report from either. He wasnt given any explicit permissions/rights at either the reporting or db level.
I have developed a report in SSRS. When I preview it, the report looks fine. However when I view the same report on the ReportServer of a remote machine it looks differnt. Some additional rows with some values appear and I have no idea from where they are coming.
This same report works fine on my local PC and ReportServer. However this problem only appears when I deploy it on a remote machine and view it on the web there.
If I have an asp page with a button, what are the means or methods to trigger the event to process a report, save into a report and store in a file server or any directory? All these is done backend without the need to display to the browser.
Using RS Web services or Delivery extension programming things like that?
