Reporting Services :: Missing SSIS Extension In Config Files?
Oct 15, 2010
in order to use an SSIS package as a data source in a report, I need to enable the SSIS extension in the RSReprotDesigner.config and RSReportServer.config files. That extension is in neither of these files. I have SSIS running on my machine with Reporting Services.
The path to RSReportServer.config: C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSRS10_50.MSSQLSERVERReporting ServicesReportServer
The path to RSReportDesigner.config: C:Program Files (x86)Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0Common7IDEPrivateAssemblies
Why is this extension not in either of these files?
The following is an abbreviated list of what's present in the RSReportServer.config file:
------------------------------------------------------------- Here's what our Immediate window Debugger is tellin' us about our configuration settings:
Now notice the stuff in bold...I have NO IDEA where this gosh-danged thing is reading, but it doesn't seem like it's the app.config file in our class library...
Currently have a single hard coded file path to the SSRS config file which parses the file and provides the reporting services web service url. My question is how would i run this same query against 100s of servers that may or may not share the same file path as the one hard coded ?
Is there a way to query the registry to find the location of the config file of any server ? which could be on D, E, F, H, etc.
I know I can string together the address followed by "reports" and named instance if needed, but some instances may not have used the default virtual directory name (Reports).
Am I going about this the hard way ? Is there a location where the web service url exists in a table ? I could not locate anything in the Reporting service database. Basically need to inventory all of my reporting services url's.
Is Microsoft planning to include reporting services extensionsion for usering Sharepoint lists as datasource in MS SQL Server 2008? And what about reporting services extension for building semantic model on Sharepoint lists?
Based on some of the threads, when I enabled package configuration, I changed the path from C:Karunakaranfolder1folder2Configcommon.dtsconfig -> common.dtsconfig
Once I did this, when I open the project I get a dozen of warning similar to the one below
Warning loading <package1>.dtsx: Failed to load at least one of the configuration entries for the package. Check configurations entries and previous warnings to see descriptions of which configuration failed.
What am I doing wrong here? If I have to deploy this to another box, what should I do to ensure that nothing breaks once its copied / installed?
Hi, I have just install SQL 2005 SP2 and trying to get Window SharePoint Services V3 integrated with SQL 2005 SP2 reporting services. In SharePoint Central Administration, I select the Reporting Services Integration page and have setup the Report Server Web Service URL and Authentication Mode. I then goto Grant database access, specify the SQL server name, get promted for a username and password that has access SQL Reportserver and get the following error "The group name could not be found" Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks
I have written a custom rendering extension for my reporting services. In one of my function inside custom rendering assembly, I want to access the underlying dataset and manipulate with it. I gain some knowledge on dataextension but not able to use it successfully. Can someone please help me get to underlying dataset?
I need to use HTML OWC rendering extension as an export option. I typed the following entry in the RSReportServer.config and RSReportDesigner.config files, and nothing occurs. Some suggestion?<Extension Name="HTMLOWC" Type="Microsoft.ReportingServices.Rendering.HtmlRenderer.HtmlOWCRenderingExtension,Microsoft.ReportingServices.HtmlRendering" Visible="false"/>
I am running SQL Express Advanced addition on an XP pro box. The install went cleanly, and I have no problems creating and publishing reports that use a SQL server data source, however when I try and publish a report that uses an oracle data source I get the following error.
An attempt has been made to use a data extension 'ORACLE' that is not registered for this report server.
The report works fine withing the preview pain of Visual Studio, and it publishes fine within SQL 2005 standard edition.
Can someone please tell me how to register the data extension for ORACLE in SQL Express.
I am having a problem with the e-mail delivery extension in MS SQL Reporting Services 2005. I have some reports that use an Oracle data source. When running the reports through Report Manager the data source works fine and the reports display properly. But when running an automatic e-mail delivery of the reports through a subscription I get the following error message (in the ReportServerService log file):
System.Data.OracleClient requires Oracle client software version 8.1.7 or greater.
Doesn't this seem strange when the reports run in Report Manager but not when I send the reports through e-mail? I have Oracle Instant client v. 10.2.0.3 installed on the machine. I am wondering if the e-mail delivery extension has an account that needs privilegies to the oracle client home directory or something like that. Any ideas?
When I am saving a SSRS report in excel format in a shared network drive, how can I add the date extension to the filename ?I assume this is something that needs to be handled within the SSRS reporting side rather than the subscription side.
I am using this custom data extension from BI Studio.
Que1: I want to create report parameters from BI studio and capture them in my Data Extension.
Que2: Every report parameter has so many properties, like hidden, internal, default value etc, how do capture that information in my data extension, the parameters only give me name and value.
Que3: I know I can capture command Text. So My command can be Select * From tablename where fieldname= @myFieldname. Once I get this commandText in my data extension, How do extract parameters of the command?
Que4: If I have any custom attributes in my RDL file, Can I capture them in my Data Extension ?
I installed SSRS 2014 Reporting Services on a 2008R2 Enterprise server. When I try to subscribe to a report (also SQL 2014), the default rendering is MHTML. I want to change this default to EXCEL.
I updated the rsreportserver.config file and restarted SQL Server Reporting Service. Now, the default rendering for a subscription is 'XML file with report data' which is the first <Render> data element. If I change
<DefaultRenderingExtension>EXCEL</DefaultRenderingExtension> back to <DefaultRenderingExtension>MHTML</DefaultRenderingExtension>
And restart SSRS Service, the default subscription rendering is MHTML.
<DeliveryUI> <Extension Name="Report Server Email" Type="Microsoft.ReportingServices.EmailDeliveryProvider.EmailDeliveryProviderControl,ReportingServicesEmailDeliveryProvider"> <DefaultDeliveryExtension>True</DefaultDeliveryExtension> <Configuration>
I have several SSIS packages, some of which retrieve data from excel files - they work fine from th VS designer until I try to store configurations in a SQL database - then I get the following error:
SSIS package "ITAMdiv2.dtsx" starting.

Using SSRS 2008R2 is it possible to change the file extension of a CSV data driven subscription? I'm outputting a text file with a .csv extension, but users have access to these files and I don;t want them opened with Excel and then saved back in an incorrect format.
These are the options I have from the report "manage" option.
I am using Custom Data Processing Extension to call a stored procedure. Iam getting following error when creating a dataset in report designer using the extension. I wrote the code in c#.
could not update a list of fields for the query. verify that you can connect to the data source and that your query syntax is correct.(Details-Object reference not set to an instance of an object.)
Here is my code
using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.Text; using System.IO; using System.Data;
I have a source file as filename.mar it is microsoft access report. When I am loading into my database the file name was something like filename.nov (its current month).
When I ran the package its shows error system cannot find the file filename.nov.
I try to add an data extension who take the information to connect to the database in a config file. But It's could not retreive the values corresponding to the key.
I'm using the class ConfigurationManager from the namespace System.Configuration.
ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["QueryModel"]
Without the config file, the extension is working well.... I got the impression that reporting service and Visual Studio BI don't find the config file.
If someone can help me or have some advices. I will be pleased
I have deployed to production a number of nested packages (parent packages that call child packages) to the SQL msdb via the Save As option rather than building a deployment utility. These packages reference configuration files in a static location off of the c: drive on the production server. In the development environment, when connection changes are made and I run the Reload with Upgrade option the connection manager takes on the new server and user id settings. However, out on the production side I get the following error from the SQL job log:
Cannot load the XML configuration file. The XML configuration file may be malformed or not valid.
As a result the SQL job uses the default connection information which references the development database rather than the production database. I did research the error but found no good solutions. Is there a way to ensure the configuration files are formed correctly and that the packages are correctly referencing the configuration files? We are trying to run the ETL updates via a SQL job.
I'm using the System Center Essential 2007 VHD (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=91061). It has an SQL Server Express Edition with Advanced Services installed as a named instance, SCEVHDSCE. I tried to upgrade the SQL Server to Enterprise Edition, because some of the reports are not working in Express. I started the setup with the SKUUPGRADE=1 switch, it found the SQL Engine and Reporting Services components and offered to upgrade them. Upgrading the SQL Engine was successful, however the Reporting Services failed with the following error:
SQL Server Setup did not have the administrator permissions required to copy a file: C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.4Reporting ServicesReportServer ssrvpolicy.config. To continue, verify that the file exists, and either grant administrator permissions to the account currently running Setup or log in with an administrator account. Then run SQL Server Setup again.
I checked the file, it exists and the current account (which is a domain administrator) has permissions. I stopped all services which could use the reporting services, rerun the setup now only for reporting services, but the same error occured. For the third try I started Filemon also, and it captured the following trace. http://mit.bme.hu/~micskeiz/files/sql-rs-install-error.jpg From this I guess the following: until row 442 it checks the existense of the target folder and creates the folder for the upgraded instance in C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.4. In step 443 probably it wants to copy the old config, but it searches them in the C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.2 folder, which should be the location of a default reporting services install. However, the setup of System Center Essentials installs its SQL Server Express Reporting Services in C:Program FilesSystem Center Essentials 2007Microsoft SQL ServerMSSQL.2, thus the setup fails because it is looking for rssrvpolicy.config in the wrong folder. Do I see the problem correctly? The setup log can be found here: http://mit.bme.hu/~micskeiz/files/SQLSetup0005_SCEVHD_RS.log
I tried to do a command line install, but I did not found a switch to tell the old location of Reporting Services. Neverthless I tried the following command: D:>start /wait setup.exe ADDLOCAL=RS_Server INSTANCENAME=SCEVHDSCE UPGRADE=RS_ Server SKUUPGRADE=1 /qb But the setup said that the requested component could not be found.
Any suggestions?
Thanks, Zoltan (I will be on vacation from next week, so I could not respond for a week.)
I want to skip running the SSIS data flow task when the source file is missing. We have a scheduler that copies the source file to the staging area. This SSIS package runs as SQL server job. So when a SSIS package fails due to missing file the remaining steps in the SQL scheduler won't execute. I want to handle the missing source file condition grace fully. Please advise.
I have a package in which I have enabled "Package Configuration".
When I run the package i am sure that it reads the configuration file and executes the package correctly.
However if I remove the configuration file, the package still executes correctly with the settings which were used at the time of development.
I have event handlers for OnError and OnWarning and both these are NOT invoked.
IMO, this is incorrect behavior because if a package has been configured for "package configuration, then we should atleast have a warning generated that SSIS did not find the configuration and it would execute the package with hard coded values (from the time of development).
Is there any work around for this? how can I make SSIS warn me if the config file is missing for a package which was configured for package configuration?
After developing SSIS Package (.dtsx file) if I need to deploy to all environments dynamically, then how can I create .dts config file and mention properties in it ?
I have to load on SS2012 hundeds of excel files produced by an application over the last five years, during time few columns have been added to the initial set.I created on SS2012 a table to match with the full set of columns and want to load all the files inside the table leaving the missing cells to NULL. I think SSIS can do the job but every trial failed do far.
I have an issue where I need to set a whole bunch of internal parameters' values to the result of a dataset first executed with the report...nothing new or majestic about it.
The problem is that the 'First dataset', under some parameter values, return no records..it is empty (which is fine). But this meas that these internal parameters error my report as the 'NEED' a value even though I have specified a default, I still get the 'Paremeter X is missing a value' error. I just want the other datasets, which are reliant on these erroring parameters to either execute with parameter values of 0 or not execute at all. Thus I want the sub datasets to return with blank data in this case or not execute at all.
I am using Reporting Services to create reports on an Access database. I am using the OLEDB provider to connect to the Access 2000 database file. Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0. When I try and establish a connection to one of the queries in my database, I get the error message below. I had copied the access database from a previous version in which the Import Specification below was used. The import specification is no longer necessary. How can I get Reporting Services to not look for this text file specification?
TITLE: Microsoft Report Designer ------------------------------
An error occurred while executing the query. The text file specification 'CEU06_FULL_REG_INFO Import Specification' does not exist. You cannot import, export, or link using the specification.

We currently have reports for a client running on SQL 2000 RS. The strange thing (problem) is that we can see any embedded image in the Report when we Preview it, and view it on our testing server (SQL 2000), but at the client's site (also running SQL 2000) the images don't appear at all. The same goes for any graphs inside the report as well. This is very puzzling as we cannot find out what the problem is. The other strange thing is that we can see the images on the client's site when running them through Report Manager, but when we go through the application using the Reports, then the images do not appear at all. We have no idea of what's wrong. The app is running on 2003 Server x64, the database is being hosted on another server running 2003 Server, and the report server is running on another server running Windows 2000 Server.
Recently we upgraded to SSRS-2008 R2 from SSRS-2008 (enterprise edition) and noticed that all the underlines for hyper-links in all reports are missing. Also the font color has reset back to default color (had set to blue to indicate a hyperlink).
Redeployed the same report from VS-2008 SP1 but no luck. Although the formatting (color + underline) looks ok in the preview mode in VS.if there's any workarounds as many end users are getting confued with this change.
I have deployed Lync 2013 and monitoring which all went through fine. However just one of the monitoring reports (conference join time) shows no data even though there is data within SQL All other reports are fine and all datainformation is displayed. I've tired to publish the reports again but this has not made any difference.
People, help me with this? Already broke my brain.
I have some data on Sybase 9.0.2.3198, i'm tryin to render report with MSSQL ReportingServices 2000 Eval SP2.

after deployment I'm tryin to render it, RS gives me an error:
An error has occurred during report processing. (rsProcessingAborted) Get Online Help Query execution failed for data set 'Data'. (rsErrorExecutingCommand) Get Online Help Column '@start_date' not found
I tried connect through ODBC and OLEDB both - same result.
