I'm using the reports designer in Visual Studio 2005 Professional and have successfully been deploying reports to my client's server for several months. Now I can't deploy any reports, when I try Visual Studio almost hangs, tries for about 5 minutes to deploy a single report and then fails with an error message:
TITLE: Microsoft Report Designer
------------------------------
A connection could not be made to the report server http://winserver/ReportServer.
------------------------------
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
The operation has timed out (System.Web.Services)
------------------------------
BUTTONS:
OK
------------------------------
It used to ask me for username/password for the server (credentials), now it doesn't do that. I can go to the reports server and reports interface pages in my browser OK. The reports build without any errors.
Has anyone experienced this? Any ideas on how to get it working again?
I'm working through the SQL2005 Reporting Services Tutorial. When I try to deploy, I get the error "Connection could not be made to the report server." It appears that I do not have permissions to get to localhost/reportserver (I get a permissions error when just trying to get there directly from "run"). In another forum I saw several people having the same issue. One contributor said that the problem was solved for him by uninstalling SQL2005 and reinstalling using the local system account rather than a windows domain account. I tried that, but am getting the same error. Anyone know how to fix this?
I have created a report on my local machine and deployed it on a server. As I am the administrator of the server, I can access the reports with servernameReports. The report has got three data sets. Out of these three one is a Stored procedure and other two data sets have sql queries. The user selects the 'Business year' and 'sales type' from list box. This report works perfect from my local machine as well as from teh server when I am running it
I have some other users who wish to access these reports. I did the following steps:
Created a new role and assigned it at the Data Source Folder and Reports Folder I also made the user a Database user on the server.
After doing these steps, the user can access the Reports site by servernameReports.
The user then can go into the Reports folder. But when the user tries to run the report, he gets an error with:
An error has occurred during report processing. (rsProcessingAborted)
Query execution failed for data set 'BusinessYear'. (rsErrorExecutingCommand)
For more information about this error navigate to the report server on the local server machine, or enable remote errors
Can anyone help me with this? Is htere something to do with setting up of the datasource?
I have tried to search, but could not find relevant info.

I've got a report model I am trying to move from a development server to a production server. I published it to my development RS, exported the SMDL file, then uploaded it to the production server. At that point, I tried assigning the data source to the model and got the error:
I installed SQL reporting services 2005 and successfully configured reporting services.After designing the report using Bussiness Intelligence Studio, i tried to deploy my reporting services application to the localhost , I got the below mentioned error :

And i was getting error opening up the reports from localhost.
I changed everything to same as it was previosly, and I am getting the error:

Not sure if I really have the correct forum for this posting so appologies if it is not. My question refers to the basic functionality of the new Sharepoint 3.0 both WSS and MOSS.
In version 2.0 of Sharepoint Services reports were displayed in Sharepoint using Report Explored to navigate and Report Viewer to display the report. Also KPI's were displayed in a web part which came from Business Scorecard Manager 2005.
I have been investingation both WSS3.0 and MOSS and have installed WSS3.0 to test. I notice that I can connect to reporting services with CTP2.0 for sql server. I can upload reports into document lists and run them from there. My question is has the old idea of using the report explorer gone as when you have report manager running in sharepoint integration it has no website to upload files or manage permissions. Is the document upload method the new way or am I missing something.
More importantly though is the display of KPI's is this now only available in MOSS 2007 and no longer a function of WSS3.0 as you cannot install Business Scorecard manager on WSS3.0 but it appears this is built in to MOSS.
Any guidelines to this new functionality would be greatly appreciated
I have created a report which contains a sub report.But the problem is when i deployed my rdl in my report server,my sub report wont show : "Error SubReport could not be shown".
But still,when i also deployed my sub report for that main report,still, it wont show.. what could be the reason for this?? Thanks...
We currently have a test and development environment for our data warehouse which is using SSIS packages to build (SSIS packages call stored procedures). We have multiple connections accross the different packages. The problem that we are having is when we deploy the packages to the development environment, the connection strings in the packages are still pointing to the live server! Hence, when we run these packages in the test environment, they actually execute the stored procedures in our live server.
I have tried to use package configurations and the deployment utility to assist us in this regard but have still come up with a few problems:
- When running the deployment utility, I still have to go and manually type in the data source the connection string must use - Is there maybe a way to use some sort of a variable that will automatically set this dependant on the name of the server that you are deploying to?
-It seems, even when I deploy to my live server, if I change the data source to point to my live server, it goes and changes the data source for the packages on my test server to point to the live servesr as well/
Basically, what I would like at the end of the day is to just be able to select the server the packages must be deployed to, and the connesction strings must be set automatically to either the test or live server dependong on which one I deploy to. Anyone know if this is possible?
I would like to be able to deploy a report to a particular folder in the report server. It seems when I deploy a report it always shows up in the root even after I have moved it into another folder where I wish it to reside.
I have an reporting services (SSRS 2005) installed locally and I am trying to access it locally through : http://localhost/reportserver, but all I get back is this page.
localhost/ReportServer - /
Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services Version 9.00.3054.00
Also when I try to connect to reporting services through SSMS I get the following error message.
Cannot Connect to Server ServerNameSQL2005
Unable to connect to the remove server (Microsoft.SQLServer.Management.UI.RSClient)
No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it(System).
About my set up, I have SQL Server 2005 (SP2) installed in a named instance called SQL2005, I have reporting services set up to run under local system and I have gone through the RS config tool and everything in there appears to be correct. U double checked in IIS that the report server folder is "ReportServer" and not "ReportServer$SQL2005". I have set up full read write permissions to all the virtual directories, to my domain account which is also a local administrator. The user logs in under windows authentication (marked in the directory security tab in IIS, for the virtual directory & the default website).
Whenever I start the service however I get the following errors in the windows application log:
Report Server (SQL2005) cannot create the trace log C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.3Reporting ServicesLogFilesReportServer__05_15_2008_10_27_52.log.
Also I am unable to deploy my SSRS 2005 project from BI studio with more errors, I get the following exception thrown in a windows. (I am trying to deploy to the root "ReportServer" folder, not a sub folder.
A connection could not be made to the report server http://localhost/reportserver.
System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException: Server was unable to process request ---> System.InvalidOperationException: Unable to generate a temporary class (result=1) error: CS2001 "Source File "C:WindowsTempc-zsc7th.0.cs" could not be found.....
I don't have sharepoint installed, I do have the dashboard designer for Performance Point Server 2007 installed though.
I have been on this thing for hours, I have tried appending "$SQL2005" on to the end, stopping and starting RS Service multiple times. Change all the permssions in IIS so that the user can full control over the IIS virutal directory. I am at a loss at what else I could try.
I'm currently strugling with the setup of our packages for deployment to a new environment.
We are working with a master/detail package setup. One master package is created that will call all child packages. In the master package we don't have any connection towards our source and/or target databases/sourcesystems.
Everything works fine, however, starting to deploy the whole set of packages, it seems that we don't have the option to set specific properties of our detailed packages, e.g. connection properties. But this is just what we need.
When we are adding a job in the Job Agent for our master package to be scheduled, we want to be able to set all different connection manager properties, not only the one from the master package and definitely the ones from the detailed packages as there we switch the connections from the development environment towards the acceptance environment.
I tried to fix this with parent package variables, but I can't set the password property, only the ServerName and UserName can be set, not the Password.
Anyone an idea what the easiest and best approach is to solve this burden?
I have a question about Report services scale out deployment.
In the technet document it states that reporting services must be Enterprise edition for scale out deployment functionality, does anyone know if the database engine has to be Enterprise also, or can it be standard edition?
Here is the article excerpt from technet:
The Reporting Services edition must be Enterprise, Developer, or Evaluation. Standard edition does not support a scale-out deployment. You can create a scale-out deployment using a combination of editions as long as the edition supports the scale-out feature.
I just asked you about how to hide the sub report from showing it in the drop down list. I have done it with the report manager [Report properties--> general --> Hide in Listview]. I am using RSBuild tool to automatically deploy the reports.I don't know what modification I have to make in the RSBuild code to incorporate this new functionality[Hiding sub report]. Can you please let me know how to do it?
I am using the following code, The description property is working correctly. But the Hide in List view property is not working. Property[] properties = new Property[2];
Property Prop1 = new Property(); Property Prop2 = new Property();
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?
We are using custom authentication to acess the report server.Users can access reports only through a .net application. Now we want to give the users the ability to deploy their reports trhough a .net client utility with out changing the anonymous security setting in IIS.
Can anyone point me in the right direction . Can we use rs.exe to deploy reports under forms authenticated mode...
In a nut shell "Is there a way to deploy report through forms authentication"/
I created two reports in SSRS and have configured both the web service and report manager URLs in report services configuration manager.
whenever I try to open either one of the two reports from the manager or service I get the following error msg.
"An error occurred within the report server database. This may be due to a connection failure, timeout or low disk condition within the database.
(rsReportServerDatabaseError)
Invalid object name 'DataSets'. Could not use view or function 'ExtendedDataSets' because of binding errors."
I get a similar msg when I try to deploy the reports from VS 2010. Only the first 2 sentences are returned.
I'm mystified as to why DataSets is an invalid object name. It shows as the TargetDatasetFolder name WebsiteReports Property Page. I've looked around for the error source and can not find where this error is stemming from.
When i deploying a report model by visual studio, a login window popped , a '' char in the user name textbox. I input my username and password ,then click "OK",but nothing happened.the window showing yet.I view the RS log, there is a message: "login failed". But, deploy report project is very well. Has any idea with this problem?
There are my RS configurations: Sql Server 2005 sp2. Visual studio 2005 sp1. Reporting Services with Form Authentication.
I did make changes in to webconfig with time out = 1200 and maxrequestlength = '102400' ( i think it is 10 mb)
I also made changes to machine.config.comment requestLimit = "50147483647" [number] ( does it mean 5 MB or G)
My report model is 4 MB and it still keep getting error of

I am trying to deploy reports to my secure report server. When I attempt to deploy it's not authenticating me and I get an error:

I have created reports using RS.The reports that are generated are build and deployed sucessfully.But when i run the reports through http://localhost/ReportServer I am not able to see the Report. A blank page is displayed with no error message.Whenever i change the Url to http://computername/ReportServer then also the same problem arises. I have already checked the ReportServer Instance and the Folder on which Reports are Deployed.I mean I am able to access the ReportFolder, the Report also, but the Report is not shown.
I have got a quistion in regards to SQL Server Reporting Services 2005. We're currently using the SSRS in one of our applciations with 20+ reports. We need to deplaoy 2 instances of an applciation: Test and Production. These applcaitions are running off two different databases in SQL Server [DBName]_Test and [DBName]_Live. So far all of our reports have been written to use a shared datasource. This worked fine untill we had to deploy a Live instance of the application, where the shared datasource is overwritten with the live one.
Now we have manually created a new shared datasource called [DataSource]_Live. However, whenever we need to redeploy the reports from visual studio, we then have to go though each report and point it to a correct datasource. This is extremly manual process - and takes up a lot of time...
Surely there must be an easier way around this (without duplicating the reporting project in VS.NET / or having to modify the datasource fr each report manually each time)?
I have SQLExpress and SQLServer2005 installed, and Reporting services. I am trying to build and deploy a new report using my development machine as server and client. I can open the report wizard in Visual Studio, and make a report and run it in development mode. When I try to deploy the report I am asked for a username and password. I cannot find any combination of inputs that will let me proceed, but I really want to be able to access all the services on my development machine without entering credentials once Windows is running.
For a long time I've had SQL Server 2000 with RS on a Server2003 machine. When I want to publish a report from my Dev box, I remove anon. access on the Production machine, deploy the report, then go into report manager to tweak a couple of parameters. I then re-enable anon. access so users can continue.
Yesterday, I removed anon. access and deployed the report but when I went into Report Manager I received the above error message... "The underlying connection was closed: An unexpected error occurred on a receive."
I can get into report manager with anonymous access enabled, but I don't have authority to do anything.
What's happened!!!? More importantly, how do I fix it?
I am receving this error: Failed to open the connection: [Database Vendor Code: 17 ], from .Net 2003/C# to Crystal Report XI with SQL Server 2000 has backend database.
Is there a security permission that has been overlooked?
//Get Table inf from report DB = reportDocument..Database; tables = DB.Tables;
//Looping through all the tables in CR and apply connection info for(int i = 0; i < tables.Count; i++) { table = tables[ i ]; tableLogOnInfo = table.LogOnInfo; tableLogOnInfo.ConnectionInfo = connectionInfo; table.ApplyLogOnInfo(tableLogOnInfo);
Has anybody ever had VS2005 sometimes crash when deploying reports? It only happens once and awhile, but it is annoying. I was hoping this would go away with service pack 1, but it didn't.
Another problem that I thought would be fixed is when you try to close VS2005 after working on reports and it states "Cannot close because an active modal is active" occasionally.
I need to calculate the success rate of our OS Patch deployments. the data from system is stored in SQL with corresponding states (installed, missing, ...)
I would need to provide monthly report that shows how successful the deployment was for particular patchgroup. I have the following 2 dummy tables (just used as example)
table5 ==> Table containing patch groups + patches table6 ==> Table with machines names, patches and patch state
select * from table5 pgrouppatch GROUP1PATCH1 GROUP1PATCH2 GROUP1PATCH3 GROUP1PATCH4
[Code] ....
Result would be pgroup install missing group1 80% 20% group2 50% 50% group3 55% 45%
Ideally I would like to do this in T-SQL but if necessary can also do this in .NET Function. Only mention this but both Patchgroup and machines are dynamic each month can be different.
below are the sql scripts to create tables and populate with data
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[table5]( [pgroup] [varchar](128) NOT NULL, [patch] [nvarchar](128) NOT NULL ) CREATE TABLE [dbo].[table6]( [machinename] [varchar](128) NOT NULL,
We are currently having an issue with a Reporting Services deployment which is being accessed through Tivoli Access Manager (with a custom SSRS security extension).
When you try to launch Report Builder, we receive the following error when ClickOnce tries to validate the deployed app (Report Builder works fine when accessed outside of the Tivoli Access Manager environment):
ERROR DETAILS Following errors were detected during this operation. * [20/03/2008 2:49:35 PM] System.Deployment.Application.InvalidDeploymentException (HashValidation) - File, ReportBuilder.exe, has a different computed hash than specified in manifest. - Source: System.Deployment
Can anyone shed any light on what might be causing this?
All of the components (including the manifest) are downloaded to the client correctly so the authentication seems to be working and it works outside of TAM so there is no issue with the files on teh server having changed etc. either.
