Report Builder/Model With Oracle

Jan 31, 2008

Hi,

My environment:
Computer A
- SQL 2005 SP2 (32 bits)
- Oracle 9i client
I am the local administrator

Server A
- Oracle 9i Enterprise Edition (64 bit)
I have read only access to Oracle DB.


I am able to create a report model with Oracle DB and deployed it successfully. In my report model (rmOracle), I named my data source: dsOracle and dsvOracle for my data source view which contains one named query. Then I set a logical primary key for the named query, everything is OK so far.

Now, in Report Builder (RB) I have created a simple report (table) based on the report model I created before. Then when I preview it, I got the following error message:

Microsoft Report Builder:

Report execution error
The report might not be valid or the server could not process the data.

Details:
System.Data.OracleClient requires Oracle client software version 8.1.7 or greater.
----------------------------
Cannot create a connection to data source 'dataSource1'.
----------------------------
An error has occurred during report processing.

I tried to look more information by saving the report and run it from the report server directly. And I got the following error message:

An error has occurred during report processing.
Cannot create a connection to data source 'dataSource1'.
System.Data.OracleClient requires Oracle client software version 8.1.7 or greater.

I open the RDL file and found that when creating a report with RB, it creates its own data source, which is fine. The problem here is that data source points to the wrong connection, which I thought it should point to the same connection of the report model its based on. In this case it should point to Oracle connection (dsOracle).

Anyone has any idea how to solve it? Or did I miss something here?


Thanks and Regards,
Uzzi

Report Builder Using Report Model Based On Linked Server (Excel) - Primary Key?

Sep 6, 2007

I've created a linked server with a pretty basic Excel spreadsheet, and used this command to create a linked server to it:


sp_addlinkedserver ''XL_SPS_1', 'Excel', 'Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0', 'c:MyExcel.xls', null, 'Excel 8.0'



I want to use this as the data from which to build a report model. As linked servers don't show up in the Data Source View wizard, I created a view in SQL Server:


create view MyExcel
as
select * from XL_SPS_1...Sheet1$


Okay, great, now the view shows up in the DSV wizard and I can create the data source view. However, when I create a new report model based on this data source view, the Report Model Wizard tells me at "Create entities for all tables" that I've got an error when it processes dbo_MyExcel that "Table does not have a primary key."

I assume this is where the identifying attributes for the entities in the report model are taken from, so I really can't go further. Does anyone have an idea as to how to add a primary key to a linked server (Excel) in SQL 2005? Can this be done? Other than importing spreadsheet data to a SQL table, how can I get around this?

Thanks,
--Stan

Report Model: Drill On Calculated Field In Report Builder

Feb 11, 2007

Hi,

I've created dsv that contain all fields from table database. in the smdl I've remove some fileds due to security. All fields in the smdl do not contain drill.

Issue: When I created calculated field in the report builder the field has a link. When I clicked the drill I saw all the record data including field that not in the smdl.

Questions:

1) Can I remove the link from the calculated fields?

2) Can I prevent from users drill to fields that not in the smdl?

Thanks,

Dynamic Refresh Of Report Model In The Report Builder

Jan 22, 2007

Is it possible to dynamically refresh the report model of the report builder?

could it even be using code with any of the interfaces?

When we add a table or add a column to the table in database , will the report model get refreshed automatically or do we need to do it externally. If so, can we use any of the objects and write a custom code in VB.

Report Builder - Data Model Filter

Oct 18, 2007

I have built a data model in visual studio that I am using with report builder in reporting services. The data model is using data from a view in SQL Server 2005. I am trying to apply a filter to the data model to restrict the data available in report builder. I know that I could change the code for the view and filter that data that way, but I would rather creates two models each one producing differnt sets of filtered data. I have tried adding a filter to the data model, but it does not seem to work. Do anyone have any suggestions?

Some Doubt On Repot Model/Report Builder

Nov 28, 2006

Hi guys,

I created a simple report model, which includes both tables and views as a data source view. So here are the problems I am facing when I try to use a report builder to build a report.

1. In the Report Builder window, on the FIELDS column, I am unable to see the primary key column of any of the tables.

2. I am unable to see the VIEWS in the ENTITIES column of the Report Builder; I can see only the tables.

Does anybody has some idea to deal with the above issues?

Thanks!

Report Builder - Data Model(Security)

Feb 8, 2007

Hi all

I have created security roles that restrict access to a certain Dimension
and a member therein.

The security works fine when the users finened in it runs a report:
The data is accordingley ristricted.

The problem is when those same users run Report Builder and create a report,
those members are no longer restricted and they have acces to absoluteley
all data from the cubes.

Is there some way that I can force the Data Model to follow the cube's security roles?

Any help is much appreciated...

Gerhard Davids

EDIT:
I have found that it uses the wrong user when opening report builder.
For some reason it uses my windows account instead of the one I used to log onto
report manager. This is way the security isnt working

Any thoughts what may be causing this?

Report Builder - Data Model Based On User Id

Oct 18, 2007

I am trying to develop a data model that will filter data based on the user logged in. SUSER_SNAME()
I have a list of User Id's in a look up table, a where clause in a view that filters the data based on who is logged in. This works fine and the data even seems to be filtered when I explore the data in the Data Source View. How ever when I publish the data model to the reporting services site and use report builder the user logged in is no longer recognized. All I am really trying to do is set up report builder so that users can generate reports and only have access to thier data via a customer number. I just can't allow users to see other users data and I don't want to set up a different datasource view for each user. Does any one have any experience with this?

Report Builder Model Generation - How To Create A Key Attribute Along With The Role?

Mar 28, 2007

Hi,



I have found that in the autogenerated model attributes are missing for those fields that have relations to other tables. At first, it may look reasonable since a user can still get down to the field's value through the relation/related table. However, if the relation's key fields is the only thing the user wants to display, then going down to the related table is an overkill.

I can add an attribute manually and bind it to the key field(s). Is there an option in the autogeneration process to do it automatically? The only post I've found so far suggests to do everything manually (http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=1152575&SiteID=1). Is this the only way?



Thank you,

Leonid

Enabling Automatic ClickThrough/ Drill Into For Report Builder Reports Against A Model

Apr 4, 2007

Hello - I am having difficulty enabling the automatic click-through functionality for my model. I have two entities - Customer & Incident. Incident is a role/FK/OptionalMany relationship to customer.



I've read through earlier postings on this subject (below) and have verified that the #Incidents attribute in my incident entity has the EnableDrillThrough=true.



My test report is simple - Customer Name (from customer) and #Incidents (from incident). When I run it, the click-through option is not available (the cursor stays as an arrow and doesn't change to a finger).



Are there other properties or settings that I need to be working with? I have SP2 (9.0.3042) installed on our Standard edition of SQL 2005. I know Infinite Click-Through is not in Std edition, but a few levels should be, correct?



Thanks in Advance,

Toni

Report Model With Oracle

Feb 22, 2008

Hi,

I am using Oracle 9.2.6.0 and SQL 2005 SP2.
I have created a report model based on Oracle DB.
I use .Net Providers/Oracel Client Data Provider driver for my data source to connect to Oracle. It works fine but the performance is a bit slow.
Then I tried to use .Net Providers for OLEDBOracle Provider for OLEDB driver. When I deploy, I got the following error message: "System.OleDB".

I tried to use my last resort, which is Native OLEDBOracle Provider for OLEDB. When I deploy, I got the following error message: "Exception of type 'System.NotSupportedException' was thrown".

Anyone has this issue before?
What is the best driver to use and what is the best approach in term of performance.

Thanks and Regards,

Error - Report Model For Oracle 10g

Jan 10, 2008

I've searched forums and found responses from 2006 forward, but none that I'd find satisfactory, so if anyone can help, I'd appreciate it.

I'm using SQL have SQL Server Reporting Services 2005 SP2. I've successfully used SQL Server Business Intelligence Development Studio to create reports and charts from data stored in an Oracle 10g database.

I have a distributed team and while I'm creating the official reports, I need them to be able to utilize the Report Builder to create their own reports for day to day management of their own activities.

I created a Data Source and a Data Source View successfully. When I tried to utilize the Report Model Wizard to create a report model the builder can use, I get an error.
ORA-02179: valid options: ISOLATION LEVEL { SERIALIZABLE | READ COMMITTED }

I've read that this was ''fixed" with SP2. I've also read that there are work-arounds (which I don't necessarily understand). However, I've read plenty of MS documentation that says that this should work.

Can anyone provide any clarity around where my problem lies and how I might mitigate?

Thanks in advance,

Error Creating Report Model Based Upon Oracle Database

May 29, 2006

In MS Visual Studio, when creating a new Report Model Project, after defining a datasource to an Oracle database (and successfully testing it), and a simple datasource view (1 table), when I click "Run" in Report Model Wizard, I receive the following error:
"ORA-02179: valid options: ISOLATION LEVEL { SERIALIZABLE | READ COMMITTED }"

It does not appear that one can create Report Models from an Oracle database (since the SQL being used to query the Oracle database cannot be edited and contains syntax errors?). Is this the case?

Thank you.

Possiblity / Instructions On How To Install Report Builder Locally Without Hitting Report Server

Feb 16, 2007

We have a remote business client who has a proxy server setup and this translates into receiving a 407 proxy authentication blocking error when attempting to download the report builder application for deployment off the report server which is housed locally with us. The proxy server does not allow them to download application type files off another site. At the moment, they would not like to disable the proxy for these users to allow them to deploy the application on their client or add the report server as a trusted site. Is there a method by which Report Builder can be locally installed on the client pc instead of online only with it knowing the correct report server to access and then still launch correctly when the report builder button is pressed through report manager?

I am not a web application guru by any means and we have tried to replicate the oneclick deployment and what occurs in the local settings/apps/2.0 subdirectories, but the application still attempts to download/install again. If we attempt to just launch the local executable on the client, report builder assumes the client pc (localhost) is the report server to access. Is there a method which will succeed?

Reporting Services :: Row Group Totals On A Drill Down Report Builder Report

Report Builder Icon Is Not Showing Up On The Report Manager Home Page

Feb 1, 2007

HI, there,

I added a new windows user "ReportUser" which is a local user (not in administrator group). When I connect to the report manage's web page, I use reportuser to log in (when the anonymous access is disabled it will ask a log in). Report builder icon is not showing up on the report manager home page.

If I log in as a user in administrator group, the reportr builder icon shows up so I can download it and build report.

I have assigned reportuser "Content manager" and "repoter builder" access to the home folder. Is there anything else I have to do to make the report build icon show up on the home page?



Thanks

Report Builder And Report Server Cross Domain Communication

Dec 19, 2006



I have client machine in one domain, say A domain , on which I have installed .net 2.0 without any problem. I have report server running in other domain (B domain) where I have deployed few models which will be used from domain A to create ad hoc reports by launching Report Builder. I can access other reports in domain B from A

But when I click on Report Builder ..it tries to connect to server in domain B but fails to connect and shows following log in a text pop up

I know, problem is because of cross domain communication but question is then how to fix it ? what changes I need to do for that in firewall, domain etc etc settings?

Reporting Services :: Report Builder - Add Report Processing Time?

Feb 26, 2015

I was wondering if there was any way to add a value field to a report, with the time it took for the report to Process.

It would probably be a text field with an Expression, but don't know how that would go.

I know that in Expression there is a value for ExecutionTime (when report began to run), but nothing about when it ends.Can this be done? and if yes, how?

Reporting Services :: See Report-Level Variables In Report Builder 3.0

Is there a way to see Report-Level variables in Report Builder 3.0?  Also, just as a feedback, it would be really nice if there were a way to see and easily access all of the variables used in a report from one location instead of going to the dataset, the report, and then to the individual groups (if needed) to see the variables.  Also, it would be very useful if Group-level variables can show up in the Expression Builder as well.

Reporting Services :: Go To Report Function Works In Report Builder But Not In Web?

Jul 6, 2015

I've gotten to the point of publishing the new reports on the SSRS server and have run into the following problem.

I use a field in the primary report with the "Go to report" action to open up another report (also published) for more details. It works properly from within ReportBuilder (2.0) using the report server and I can go to and from the secondary report as I expect. Its passing the correct parameters to the second report and its runs.

But when I use the reports from the SSRS web, the Go To link no longer works. Mouse hover shows its still a link but clicking goes no where. I can run both reports independently from SSRS and they still work.  

I've tried this in IE and Chrome with no luck in either. I also poked around at Compatability view and popup blocker but nothing made any difference.

Restrict Report Builder Access To Report Execution Timeout

Nov 22, 2006

I am setting up the SQL2005 reporting service to let users build their own reports on the web. I'll provide them with pre-built report models. We have concern with SQL database performance by allowing users to execute huge reports. The problem that I have is: If I give the users permissions to build report they'll have access to the report's Properties | Execution page, which allows them to disable the report execution timeout. Is there a way for me to allow them build reports while restrict them to access the report execution timeout settings?

Please advise. Many thanks.
