Reporting Service And Source Control
Aug 30, 2007
Hi
We have encountered a problem using source control with reporting services. Im writing this post to find out whether we are doing something wrong, or reporting service just don't store everything in source control.
My problem is as follows.
My collegue creates a report with a dataset and this report contains several parameters. He tests this, deploys it, and checks it into the source control through Visual Studio.
The following day I get responsibility to alter something in this report. I checks out everything from source control, starts Visual Studio. But... A few important things are missing. The credentials for the dataset for once (this is a minor issue) since these might not should be stored in source control anyways. What is worse is that all the parameter settings are missing. What was entered was a query to a stored procedure where e.g 5 parameters in the report was mapped to parameters in the stored procedure. Now the query has been changed to text type, and the parameter mapping is missing.
This does make it impossible to cooperate on creating reports. If I now make a change in the parameter configuration, my collegue won't receive this when synchronizing source control, and the risk of deploying something incorrect is too high.
Can anyone help enlighten us. Are we doing something wrong? Is there some manual step that needs to be done to ensure that everything is stored in source control? Or is it just something we have to live with, not being able to trust source control when doing Reporting Services?
Best regards
/Anders

Hi, on my local SSRS (RDLC), I have a table which presents several
items, however these are not sequential data from a table on my DB, are
fields of only one row of a table on my DB. More specificly, I have a
table with the fields issue1, description1, issue2,
description2...until 6! I want to present those fields six times (the
same times as they appear on the DB), however, I only want them to
appear is the issuex (which is an integer) is greater than 0. So to
guarantee that each field only appears one time, I do this:
=First(Fields!issue1.Value)
to each table line
And
what I want to do on each line is IIF(Fields!issue1.Value >
0,True,False) to make that line visible or not, however, if I apply
this to a line it automatically applies it to the complete table, and
if only one of this conditions returns false the complete table becomes
invisible.
Is there anyway to make this work dynamically?!?Thanks a lot!

I am building a webapp that calls an SSRS instance to display a report based on another servers web service.I can make a call from the ssrs server using this in the RDL:
<Query>
<Method Namespace="http://machine/webservices" Name="HelloUser">
<Parameters>
<Parameter Name="user">
<DefaultValue>Craig</DefaultValue>
</Parameter>
</Parameters>
</Method>
<ElementPath IgnoreNamespaces="true">*</ElementPath>
</Query>
This works no problem. but.. I want to have the user parameter "Craig" be a parameter passed in from the web app. If it were a regular SQL data source you would put @user in the query. How do you do it with XML text queries?

UPDATE #2: When it said "Do you want to install Microsoft SQL Server" I said "yes" and that caused it to work. I exited and re-ran and now the print runs w/o the "install SQL Server" (If the prompt had said "Do you want to install the print dialog" we wouldn't be having this discussion...)
UPDATE: After posting this i discovered that the same thing occurs when attempting to print the report direct from IE6: First a dialog pops up "Do you want to install this software?" Name: Microsoft SQL Server. When I click "Don't Install" I get the dialog "unable to load client print control." Since this happens direct from IE6 I suspect it's browser settings. I'll resume tomorrow and post a followup.
My WinForm C# app integrates Reporting Services by calling them from WebBrowser controls. The problem is attempts to print cause a dialog: "unable to load client print control."
I've read prior posts that say "enable Active-X in your browser" - I don't know how to do that from a WebBrowser control.
Any ideas how to support Reporting Services "Print" from within a WebBrowser control?

Hi all,
I'm in need of a source control system that integrates with the Management Studio so that every time i want to modify a table, view, procedure etc I have to check it out from the object explorer and then check it back in again. I have used Visual Source Safe before but never with a database...is it fully integrated with SSMS? What can I do to make this work as smoothly as possible?
Is there any other IDE that handles this better than SSMS?

Why can't another developer check out SSIS packages from source control in TFS. I have given the developer all the permissions out there. I was the one who had created an SSIS solution/project local on my machine and then added to source control in TFS under the teamproject. The developer can do everything except in the source control explorer, everything is grayed out. I know you can set up permissions in source control explorer, and I have done that. but still no luck. Can it be related to workspace. When I open the Souce control explorer, in the workspace, I see the name of my local machine. should it be different. or is something else an issue.
Please advice.
Thank you.

I was having one package which uses a source query in OLEDB Source Control and fetches the record and a couple of lookups and then an oledb command to insert/update the records in the table using as SP. I changed the source query(Infact the package) and removed in lookup and a different SP was called similar to the old one. But my problem is the package which was before taking only minutes to update 50,000 records is now taking more than 2 hrs. The problem is the number of records it is fetching from the source each time is very less.. its fetching hardly 500 records a time compared to nearly 2500 records before. Where am i going wrong? Any suggestion greatly appreciated.

Hi guys'n'girls...
I currently work for a company where we develop several large ASP.NET applications which are VERY data centric. But lately we have run into a problem on our developer DB...
On the project I am working on we currenctly have approx. 10 developers working concurrently on the database. That means that we often run into errors caused by two developers working on the same stored procedure, function or trigger so the developer who adds his changes last, overwrites the modifications done by the other developer. The obvious answer is source control for the db, but as far as I can tell this is only available for stored procedures and not for functions or triggers... And even the stored procedure solution isn't very safe because it only works if every developer is editing the procedures through VS.
So what do we do? There must be some solution to this problem... And I'm pretty convinced that we are not the first company to face this problem. Are we doing it the wrong way or do you know another solution?
Thanks in advance!

We have a large team working on applications to support our internal sales and our public dotcom site. In the process, as you can imagine, we generate a lot of stored procedures and sql scripts going to our dba's for our staging,qa and production environments- but we don't have a solid way to manage it yet. Some people use Source Safe? Does anyone have any successes in this area or recomendations?Thanks!s!Stephen Rylander

I noticed from this link:
http://www.aspfaq.com/show.asp?id=2495
There are four well known products that are used by medium to large size shops to help aid in change management of SQL Environments.
- AbaPerls
- DBGhost
- MSSqlExpress
- SQL Source Control
Does anyone currently use any of the above? Could you briefly explain your likes an dislikes and if you have reviewed any of the other options above when you had to make a decision as to which product to use?

Hello SQL Server Community.
I'm looking for a way to keep my database in Subversion so I can maintain it in source control.
Seems like the best way to do this would be to dump the database to a text script file. This works fine for creating the database structure and managing those change, however, that database structure is useless without the actual data in the tables.
Is there a good way to generate the inserts for the actual data? Why isn't this an option in the script wizard.
Also, does anyone have a better idea of source control of SQL Server databases in Subversion?
Thanks,
Ryan.

Our team has the following problem:
I create a SSIS project in VS and add it to Team Source Control. When the project and all it's files exist on a machine and I want to open the project from Source Control, everithing works fine, but when another developer, who doesn't have the files on his machine, wants to open the project from Source Control he is required to check out the project file.
I've investigated the problem and found out that each project has a database file (with .database extension) and project file contains a reference to it. Once the user opens from Team Source Control a project that isn't presented on a target machine, the VS creates a new database file on a local machine and insists to change the reference in the project file.
Does anyone have a workaround for the problem?
Thanks

I have all the config files for my various packages in a folder call configs. It seems that I cannot add folders to the SSIS solution. I can add config files, but they get copied into the root folder, which breaks the directory structure that I have.
Am I missing something? Is there a recommended to manage config files, and other external files used by the SSIS package, in SourceSafe and in the SSIS solution? Thank you.

I have an ASP page which uses an SQL data source control, as shown below: <asp:SqlDataSource ID="mySQL" runat="server" ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:mySQLConnectionString %>" SelectCommand="SELECT device FROM device_table WHERE (device_id IN (@devicelist))"> <SelectParameters> <asp:Parameter DefaultValue="" Name="devicelist" Type="String" /> </SelectParameters> </asp:SqlDataSource>The problem is getting the "IN" clause of the select statement to work via the ASP page with code behind in C#. If I test the query in the page designer when configuring the SQL control by inserting 'device-1','device-2','device-3' as the value for the "devicelist" parameter, everything works as expected. However, when that same value is written programmatically into the DefaultValue of the parameter, the resulting query contains no results (as if the string contents are invalid). If I alter my program to supply a single entry (with no commas) it seems to work as well. I suspect the comma (and possibly the single-quote) characters in my string when multiple entries are involved are causing the issue.Is there a proper technique for getting the requisite quote-delimited, comma-separated list into the SQL control command parameter correctly? Should I be using some sort of escape sequence for the single-quote and comma characters? Should I be using another "type" for the parameter; one that accepts an array of entries? I have not been able to find any examples or documentation that provides an answer.

Hi,
I was wondering if anybody could advise on source code control for SQL Server express, for the table schema and stored procedures?
I currently use Sourcesafe V6 to work with visual studio 6 and 2003 (although it isn't integrated in 2003), and wondered if that can be used?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, as I see this as a disaster waiting to happen!
Thanks in advance.

I have a DB with the folloing fields... ArticleID, ArticleTitle, PublishDate(DateTime Field), EndPublishDate(DateTime Field).... What I want to do is show in a list view only the articles where the date is on or after the PublishDate and before or on the EndPubishDate.
I thought I could simply do something like this
SELECT ArticleTitle, PublishDate, PublishEndDate, PublishedFROM UserArticlesWHERE (Published = @Published) AND (PublishDate >= @PublishDate) AND (PublishEndDate <= @PublishEndDate)
Well I can't... can someone explain how I can do this please... I understand the the PublishDate and EndPublsihDate need a variable... The info is in the DB I just don't know how to do what I need to.
Thanks,

We are using the whole BI-package from Microsoft - from SQL, DTS-package,Raporting Service and Analyze Service.
It should be very helpful to be able to create a metadata databases where you could find all releations between different objects (tables,views,reports,cubes,DTS-package,Databases.
Just to get answer for: 'where is view xxx used', 'what are Report xxx depending upon'.
While everything exists in different SQL databases it should possible to do.
Has anyone any comments or the same needs ?

Hello,
In our project, we would like to use the same data source for our analysis service database cubes and for our reporting service reports.
I created the analysis service project first, deployed successfully. When trying to setting up the data source in the report model project, I selected the "create a data source based on another object", and then selected the "create a data source based on an analysis service project". However, there is no analysis service project to select, and no browse button to see where the reporting service is looking for analysis service project either.
I have tried creating a new analysis service project with data source views, cubes, dimensions and all the stuff, but still cannot see the analysis service project in the drop down box to be selected for my reporting model project data source.
As I am fairly new to the reporting service, I'm sure I'm missing something, but couldn't find much information in the help or on the web. Any suggestion would be much appreciated.
Thank you very much,
Annie

I have an SQL data source on my page and I select "Table". On the next screen I pick the fields I want to show. Then I click the "Advanced" button because I want to allow Inserts, updates and deletes. But its all greyed out abd I can't check this option. The UID in the connection string I am connecting under has the correct permissions in SQL server to do inserts, update and deletes too. Anyone know why it would be greyed out? The connectionstring property in the aspx code is dynamic but this shouldn't be the reason because I have used this before with success

"Windows could not start the SQL Server (RETAIL) service on local computer."
"Error 1053: The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion."
I am trying to start my SQL Server service and I get the above error. I am using Windows 7 32 bit. SQL 2008 R2 32bit. SQL has ran successfully for 2 years on this machine until a power outage the other night. Now I have this happening on two computers.
I have read every event viewer message up and down and searched Google for hours trying to find a solution. I have done so many things from changing dll's to reinstalling sql 2008 to trying sql 2012.
I uninstalled SQL2008 and installed SQL2012 and it had the exact same error message. It wont start that one process. I have read this forum and I see many instances of this issue being reported but none of them have been recent. I attempted to do everything the previous posts said to try and nothing has worked. I have tried to roll back using windows restore point, I have tried to change the servicespipetimeline registry edit in the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetControl. I have changed permissions.
