First, I am very new to programming, so please use the most basic descriptions in any replies. I have created a simple program in VB express and would like to be able to generate a report for a database used in my program through SQL Server Express. My goal was to have someone using my program on a laptop (not connected to a server or network) to be able to generate this report through my program in VB express without installing additional software, based on the local database on their computer. So, I thought using Reporting Services would best accomplish this. I went through the AdventureWorks tutorial and had to play with the connection settings so it would finally let me connect to the DB in the Visual Studio "Report Wizard". Now, when I try to connect to a datasource for my program, I get log on problems. I don't want to have to log on to anything to run this report. Since I actually got the AdventureWorks database report to work, I know there is a way to do this, but can't figure the specfiic settings. See the error below that I get.
Login failed for user ''. The user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection.
For anyone reading this, does this sound like a practical way to accomplish my objective or would there be an easier way to generate a report through VB express? Since I haven't gotten to the build process, I am still unclear as to how reporting services reports (if not using a web server) plays into the whole picture. Would a user have to install another program other than my VB express program to view reports that I create through Reporting Services (again, if I don't want to use a network server and instead have reports generated from their local DB on their computer).
Obviously, I have a lot to learn yet, but any help getting started would be greatly appreciated!
I have set up a report on reporting services and deployed it on a server. (server A) The data comes from 2 databases - one on Server A and one on server B
I can view the reports when logged into Server A, but if I try to view them from a networked PC I get the following message:
An error has occurred during report processing.
Cannot create a connection to data source 'byvshs01'.
For more information about this error navigate to the report server on the local server machine, or enable remote errors
Byvshs01 is Server B.
However, if I remove the data from server B from the report, I can view it ok. So it seems you can view data from a DB located on the server that hosts the reports, but not if the DB is located elsewhere.
An error has occurred during report processing. (rsProcessingAborted)...The execution failed for the shared data set 'DataSet1'. (rsDataSet ExecutionError )...Cannot create a connection to data source ' Data source for shared dataset'. (rsErrorOpeningConnection)...the above error message I get on the published report, but everything works fine when I do a preview in Visual Studio.How can I see exactely what is wrong?
As the title states I have a 64bit DSN but when I try to create ODBC datasource in Reporting Services it does not appear in the dropdown box. I have created as a system DSN.
We are running Reporting Services 2008 R2 on a Windows Server 2008 Standard 64-Bit server. I have a user that has full access to Reporting Services at all folder levels but IS NOT a local administrator on the 2008 server.
This user can create data source connections but when he tries to test the connection by clicking on the 'Test Connection' button, he gets the following error "The permissions granted to user <username> are insufficient for performing this operation.A user that has administrator priveleges on the server can test the connection fine.
I don't want to make this user an administrator on the server.
This is an extract from the log file:
ibrary!ReportServer_0-24!3478!08/16/2011-13:45:37:: Call to TestConnectForDataSourceDefinitionAction(). library!ReportServer_0-24!3478!08/16/2011-13:45:37:: e ERROR: Throwing Microsoft.ReportingServices.Diagnostics.Utilities.AccessDeniedException: , Microsoft.ReportingServices.Diagnostics.Utilities.AccessDeniedException: The permissions granted to user <username> are insufficient for performing this operation.;
I work in a big project and we will begin in using reporting services as the base technique for reports and I will be responsible for this part. but I have a problem I will discuss in the following:
Currently: We use currently devexpress reports and we have 2 languages(Arabic and English). the data in tables saved in two ways (Arabic and English). when the end user change the language of the web site the report data language changed when run it.
Example:
we have table with (ID, NAME_AR, NAME_EN, JobTitle_AR, JobTitle_EN). designed report will display(ID, NAME_EN, JobTitle_EN) . but the end user change the language of the system the report will
My requirement for the parameter is multivalue parameter with a text box. for example when user enters aa15 it need to include product aa15. when the user enters aa15, aa16, zz15 than it needs to include all the three products. the last case is when the user enters AA** than i need to inclued all the products start with AA. when i use default multivalue parameter with data source analytical services than i am getting a drop down box. I dont want that. I need a text box where user can enter the value. 1. In sql we have a like key word to query . for example select * from product where product like "AA%". what is equavalent mdx query to get such results ? 2.How to impliment the multivalue parameters without using dropdown box?
We have a mature instance of SQL Server 2000 reporting services that has stopped working for no apparent reason. When browsing to http://reportserver/reports we receive the following error
Error
The underlying connection was closed: Unable to connect to the remote server.
Home
The installation is running on three servers - 1 sql cluster (sql 2000 sp4) and two IIS servers all running windows 2000 sp4.
The Reportserver website runs using identity impersonation using the .net machine.config file pointing to an encrypted registry key entry holding the userid and password. It has been moved from the default website to it's own website but has been working with no issues for years. No obvious patches have been applied or security changes made that could effect the application
When browsing to http://reportserver/reportserver we can view the loaded reports and even run them with no issues, only ther report manager isn't working.
I have tried changing the impersonation registry key ( using aspnet_setreg ) and the account the reportserver web service runs under ( using the rsconfig utiltity) to be a domain admin to no effect and I have checked and set specififc permission for the reportserver database on all registry keys to no effect.
None of the online solutions for this issue have worked for me. Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated
Anybody have a clear idea why I might have problems connecting from reporting services to Oracle 9i database using the Microsoft ODBC driver? Getting following error "Cannot create a connection to data source 'oracleName'.
ERROR [IM002] [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified
"
I have the data source correctly set-up thought. Is it a permissions problem?
I am having problems with a couple of queries in the Development Studio (Reporting Services 205). I am working on a report that runs a lot of functions so I expect it to be slow. But it times out in 30 seconds.
Error Message: Timeout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the operation or the server is not responding.
The report finishes when clicking on the preview tab but not when on the data tab. If finishes fine when deployed as well. Is there a way to increase the amount of time the query designer in Visual Studio takes to time out on a query?
I have tried setting the Connect Timeout=60 on the Data Source but it seems to be overridden by a setting in Visual Studio 2005.
In VS2008 SSRS, when creating a dataset, only the name of the stored procedure was required. When populating the dataset, VS prompted for the parameters, whether or not there were any. In VS2010, the name of the stored procedure is not enough if there are parameters.When creating a dataset in Visual Studio 2010 for databases and stored procedures in SQL 2012, I must provide (what should be) run-time parameters to obtain a field list and then to preview the report.
So the embedded dataset looks like this (wherein the only parameter is a password): exec dbo.spu_procedure1 @PW='999'.This works well and as expected during report design and development. But 999 must be provided at run-time by the requester, and not in the dataset definition. If I remove the parameter in the dataset's exec string before deploying the report, the field list is cleared and the report is unusable. So I cannot overcome what seems a contradiction: necessary to obtain a field list, but "yet-to-be-provided" when the user selects the report.
By keeping @PW='999' in the dataset specification, the user cannot override the parameter and automatically has a password to view the report.
I have installed multiple instances of SSRS on same server with different database. I can go to the report server URL for both SSRS and run reports. But I cannot connect to the 2nd instance through "SQL Server Management Studio". Also I am getting following error when I try to connect to the "Reporting services configuration" tool from a remote machine

I have started getting this error since a week now when I try to schedule a report or change a schedule of a report. 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) Get Online support For more information about this error navigate to the report server on the local server machine, or enable remote errors..
We have SQL Server 2008 installed along with SSRS running on the server. I have never seen this happening before for almost a year now but suddenly it appeared. Along with this, report subscription is also messed up and some report are not been emailed as they have a error like..Failure sending mail: An error occurred within the report server database. This may be due to a connection failure, timeout or low disk condition within the database.Mail will not be resent.
I am trying to find a reference for a client that lists the fields available to be substituted into a data driven subscription from the query, along with the expected data types. For example, the field on whether or not to include a link to the report seems to be expecting a bit data type.I have searched and can't seem to find anything. I guess I could walk through the interface and try different data types, but if a list exists, that would be better.
I have 4 Tablix and 2 of the Tablix get data from Server 1 and other 2 get the data from Server 2.I have set NoRowsMessage "=Data Not Available for the Selected Values" for all the 4 Tablix.Now if data is not available from Server 1 then I must show "Data Not Available for the Selected Values" only once in the outputbut now its appearing twice in the output because of the 2 tablix that had no rows.Similarly if data not available from Server 2 then it should show "Data Not Available for the Selected Values" only once in my output.If Data not avilable from all the Tablix then also i t should show only once as "Data Not Available for the Selected Values" in the report output.
I am using SQL Server report 2008/2012 (SSRS) and my report viewer contains body content with 3 Row groups. While printing the report, data print with blank space and move to continue data to next page.
Departure flight : 70 rows First Page : 42 rows printed Second Page : 23 rows printed [ Supposed to be print 28 , if the total count of records more than 23 and less than 42 then the page print only 23 records ] Third Page : 5 rows printed
Departure flight : 42 rows First Page : 42 rows printed [Report max. record allowed to print 42 rows so if total record is 42 then print perfectly ]
Departure flight : 26 rows First Page : 23 rows printed [Supposed to be print 26, if the total count of records more than 23 and less than 42 then the page print only 23 records ] Second Page : 3 rows printed
I have a report where in I have a combination of matrix ,table data regions.
The problem what I am facing is that the data tables don't remain fixed in their position and they tend to move down.
E.g. table 1 and table 2 are on the same page in design time side by side (right and left)however during the runtime the table1 is pushed down and table2 is at its position .
Now how can I keep them all fixed in their same position. Most of the tables have fixed size rows and some who have high size of rows have been put at the end . What settings we can set?
I created a report in Reporting Services which was working. Then I filled in the "No Rows" section in the properties of a tablix in the report. Now it shows the No Rows message even if there is data. If I open the Shared Dataset that is used in the report and open Query Designer and run the query I get data.
I am trying to migrate my reports from SQL server 2000 reporting services 32bit to 2005 64bit. I am following the migration steps that MS specified. Restored my Reportserver and ReportserverTempDB databases Then I was using the configure Report services to upgrade these databases but I always end up getting the follwoing exception when I run the upgrade on the "Database Setup" configuration for 'ReportServerTempDB' database System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Could not locate entry in sysdatabases for database 'ReportServerTempDBTempDB'. No entry found with that name. Make sure that the name is entered correctly. at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection.OnError(SqlException exception, Boolean breakConnection) at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlInternalConnection.OnError(SqlException exception, Boolean breakConnection) at System.Data.SqlClient.TdsParser.ThrowExceptionAndWarning(TdsParserStateObject stateObj) at System.Data.SqlClient.TdsParser.Run(RunBehavior runBehavior, SqlCommand cmdHandler, SqlDataReader dataStream, BulkCopySimpleResultSet bulkCopyHandler, TdsParserStateObject stateObj) at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand.RunExecuteNonQueryTds(String methodName, Boolean async) at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand.InternalExecuteNonQuery(DbAsyncResult result, String methodName, Boolean sendToPipe) at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand.ExecuteNonQuery() at Microsoft.ReportingServices.Common.DBUtils.ApplyScript(String connectionString, String script) at ReportServicesConfigUI.SqlClientTools.SqlTools.ApplyScript(String connectionString, String script)
It's driving me crazy, why is it looking for 'ReportServerTempDBTempDB' in the catalog instead of 'ReportServerTempDB'? Is it possible to migrate from 32bit to 64bit?
How can I use reporting services to get reports out of analysis Services Database ?
I found following on one site, but I tried to look for Analysis services database on the server I am deploying the model , but I am not able to find it.
'To use Reporting Services with data mining, you simply create a Reporting Services project with the BI Dev Studio and specify an Analysis Services database as your data source. Depending on the contents of the database, you will be presented with either an OLAP or Data Mining query builder as in Figure 3.23. You can always switch between the two modes by clicking the Switch '
Has anyone here been able to incorporate a way of data entry using reporting services. What I would like to see is a single page that not only provides the report but also allows for the entry of data. It would be much cleaner to have both together.
Sample Data (highly simplified): pID recordDetails recordDate userID 1 Baby said "dada" 1/1/2008 1 2 Baby said "daddy" 1/3/2008 1 3 Baby said "muma" 1/20/2008 1 4 Baby said "mommy" 1/21/2008 1 5 Baby said "wahwah" 2/5/2008 1 6 Baby said "teevee" 4/1/2008 1 7 Baby said "mush" 4/6/2008 1 8 Baby said "peepee" 4/9/2008 1 9 Baby said "ouch" 4/9/2008 1 10 Baby said "owwie" 4/9/2008 1 11 Baby said "peek-a-boo" 6/2/2008 1 12 Baby said "I see you" 6/3/2008 1 13 Baby said "Do not want" 6/20/2008 1 14 Baby said "Oh, no they didn't" 6/21/2008 1 15 Baby said "Emmancipation por favor?" 6/22/2008 1 16 Daddy said "Don't bite Daddy" 4/9/2008 2 17 Daddy said "peek-a-boo" 5/5/2008 2 18 Daddy said "Want to stay over at MJs?" 6/10/2008 2 19 Mommy said "Breakfast?" 1/20/2008 3 20 Mommy said "Someone tinkle tinkled!" 3/21/2008 3 21 Mommy said "Honey, where did Baby go?" 6/22/2008 3
However sometimes-- I want to just pull what Mommy and Daddy said
so like SELECT * from tblSample where userID in (@sample) except I want it to explicitly 0 record counts for when records were not created in relevant months.
How do I get it to count 0 records for months of no records?
REAL SQL Reporting Services Expression: SELECT i.FacilityID,NameAbbr as FacilityName, d.FirstDay, SUM(i.IncidentCount) AS TotalIncidents FROM vCIR_CategoryAWOLSummary AS i RIGHT OUTER JOIN FirstDay AS d ON d.FirstDay = i.FirstDay AND i.FacilityID IN (@facility) WHERE (d.FirstDay BETWEEN CAST(LTRIM(STR(MONTH(DATEADD(MONTH, - 12, GETDATE()))) + '/01/' + STR(YEAR(DATEADD(MONTH, - 12, GETDATE())))) AS datetime) AND CAST(LTRIM(STR(MONTH(DATEADD(MONTH, - 1, GETDATE()))) + '/01/' + STR(YEAR(DATEADD(MONTH, - 1, GETDATE())))) AS datetime)) GROUP BY i.FacilityID, NameAbbr, d.FirstDay ORDER BY d.FirstDay
FirstDay is just a table with every first day of many months (until 2020).
vCIR_CategoryAWOLSummary is just a view.
I need to create a line graph thus why I need the record count of 0. Help? Thanks!
I want to perform a Analysis Services Processing Task using a connection manager created from a Analysis Services data source. I create the data source using the Oledb provider for Analysis Services 9.0, and it works fine. Then I create a connection manager using the "New connection from data source" option, and it seems to create it ok.
The problem is that I can't then asign this connection to the Analysis Services processing task. I get the error:
"Connection Manager MyConectionManagerFromDataSource is not a Analysis Services Connection Manager"
However, if I create directly a connection manager using "New Analysis Services Connection" it works fine.
Is it at all possible to create a Analysis services connection from a Data Source to perform a Analysis Services Processing Task?
I need to implement SQL Reporting Services but do not wish to use the production database for running the reports against. I intend to set a seperate server for reporting services. The data only needs to be refreshed on a daily basis, during slient hours. What would be the best way to copy data from the production to the reporting services server?
I have a group of reports that are the same for 3 different companies, the difference is the data connection. Is there a way I can change the data connection based on a variable passed in at the time of report execution?
I am creating a report that shows orders created by our employees but I am having trouble with one employee. She changed her last name this year and so in the report, it shows a line her with her maiden name and one with her new name.
Is there a way to combine all the data from both names into one name so it appears on one line and looks like a single person instead of two.
