Hi all,
I am in a situation where some reports were developed by a colleague who left the company.
The reports were published on the server but since the code behind the reports was deleted inadvertently.
We don't have documentation about them.
My questions are:
is there a way to recover the source code?
is there a way to produce a report showing a list of the reports and the underlying data straucture/stored procedure, even in cases where the RDL is missing (i.e. from the published report)?
Many thanks in advance
Massimo
We had a server give out on us completely. All that is left is a back up of the SSRS database. We have been able to get a new SSRS environment working but the symmetric key doesn't seem to work. Reports will run if we delete all sensitive data through the Config manager and reenter the connection strings into the datasource but if we can get the symmetric key saved in the ReportingServices database to work correctly it will save us a ton of effort. Can we make use of the symmetric key saved in the ReportServer.dbo.Keys table?
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?
I'm getting the below mentioned error when i tried to open the sample reporting services code in Visual studio 2005
The application for project 'C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server90SamplesReporting ServicesApplication SamplesFindRenderSave SamplecsFindRenderSaveFindRenderSaveCS.csproj' is not installed.
Make sure the application for the project type (.csproj) is installed.
In the Project types in Visual stuido i dont have Visual Basic projects or Visual c# projects.Please let me know how to install these projects types on the existing Visual studio and pls give me the link for downloading these project types.
I created a class library which uses a web reference My SSRS report uses the class through its custom code I copied the dll & dll.config of the class library to the VS2005 private assembllies and the report works I copied the dll & dd.config to the reportserver bin and gave the assembly full trust by adding the necessary code group I even added a code group the give the dll.config file full trust as well Yet on Repost server, the report does not work Any ideas I suspect it is a permission problem
I have created an SSIS Package which provides Data to a DataReaderDestination. Next I have uncommented SSIS support in rsreportserver.config and rsreportdesigner.config
After that I have set up a shared Datasource in ReportServer and created a Report using that DS of type SSIS.
/FILE D:ETLReportingDataService.dtsx
When trying to see the report using http://localhost/reports I get a message that tells me that the package fails to execute. It does so well when debugging, so my guess is that there is some security issue.
It also does not work in preview dialog in VS. The error message there is "Cannot read the next data row for the data set dsSSIS. Object refernece not set to an instance of an obj.
I haved tried several sec. config-scenarios for the shared datasource. No change
I am using sql 2005 std, march sp1 ctp
Does anyone have a clue what could be the cause of my problem
Below is code I am using to create a heatmap in SSRS. THe code seems to be working well except for one glitch. Sometimes numbers in the "middle of the pack" are white. Obviously they should be one the of colors listed below. Why numbers would be white when I declared only white for IsNothing.
Public Function GetHeatmapColor(ByVal textBoxValue, ByVal minDataSetValue, ByVal maxDataSetValue) As String Dim colours As String() = New String() {"White","DarkGreen","Green","ForestGreen","LimeGreen","YellowGreen","Yellow","Gold","Orange","DarkOrange","OrangeRed","Red"} If IsNothing(textBoxValue) = True Then Return colours(0)
Hi, I have a problem that seems impossible to resolve in RS but i need to be sure. I'm creating an Embedded Code in VB of course, and i need to run a query within my code to be able to continue the rest of the code depending on the result of my query. The problem is there is no adodb.recordset or adodb.connection like in normal VB.
So i created my query like as string:
Dim Sql as String Sql="Select ..." into "from ........where...."
At this point if it was in normal VB, i would do MyConnection.Execute(SQL) and then i will get the answer in my recordset.
I need to know if there is a way in RS to run my query since I cannot use use adodb .... If it's not really possible, is there way to go around this problem????
I want to run SSRS report directly by connecting Excel as a data source. The report runs properly from SSDT, but when it is run from Report manager, some users cannot access the Excel connection and the report execution fails. I am using SSRS 2012 and Excel 2010.I have created the ODBC data connection in SSRS and when I use 'Windows Integrated Security' option for credentials, the connection gets successful. But the problem is that all users does not have permissions to access the Excel inline, but they should get the report working.How can I store the credentials to access the Excel in SSRS with a specific username and password?
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?
When Datazen caches a data source, it sometimes says that the data was truncated. What factors are involved in the truncation and what I might be able to do to expand the size of cached elements to avoid truncation? My only current solution is to make the data source "Real Time" rather than cached.
I have tried several times to install Reporting Services 2000. I get 75% done and then receive the following:

You may be able to skip this action by selecting ignore, or retry the action by selecting retry. Selecting cancel will end the installation of SQL Server.

I have followed the resolution and continue to receive the above error. The server is running Windows 2003 standard edition, IIS 6 is installed and working, MDAC 2.8x installed, MS SQL 2000 and service pack 4 installed and working.The domain controller is SBS 2003 SR2.
I have SCCM 2012 R2. I'm working on a custom report, using MS SQL Server Report Builder. I have other custom reports that work fine....they prompt for a collection and return results just on that one collection. The problem with the one I'm working on now is that it runs fine except for that....it prompts for a collection, lets you choose one collection,returns the desired info on each line, but it returns all systems, not just the one collection you selected. IOW, I'm having trouble getting the "where" clause to work right.
Here is the code for a report that works (it returns the selected collection and counts the patches needed by each machine):
select CS.Name0, CS.UserName0, CS.ResourceID, case when (sum(case when UCS.status=2 then 1 else 0 end))>0 then ((cast(sum(case when UCS.status=2 then 1 else 0 end)as int)))
[code]....
Here is the code for the report that I'm having trouble with. What you see runs but it has none of the collection selection code I've tried since I haven't gotten it to work:
SELECT DISTINCT(CPU.SystemName0) AS [System Name], CPU.Manufacturer0 AS Manufacturer, CPU.Name0 AS Name, COUNT(CPU.ResourceID) AS [Number of CPUs], CPU.NumberOfCores0 AS [Number of Cores per CPU],
[Code] ....
get the collection selection code to work in the second (processor count) sample?
but gives me the "Unrecognized identifier" red squiggle.
My FormatString function (in the rdl file) is this:

I have a question about ssrs security. In report manager I have set a list of users as browsers, and the builtin administrators are content manager in the parent folder where reports are. A user that is not an administrator and neither a user I added, has access to reports.
I'm thinking this person is having access because the data source of the reports use a administrator account to connect to the analysis services using the option Credentials stored securely in the report server with the 2 checkboxes marked (use as windows credentials when connecting to the data source and impersonate the authenticated user).
I simply marked this option because SSRS is in 1 server and SSAS in other and I think kerberos need to be configured and I haven't looked into it, but I think the report access is separated from the data source.
This is the code which I have written in code window.
Public Shared Function CalcLocalFactor(ByVal CalcLifeCode As Integer, ByVal CalcFiscalAge As Integer, ByVal CalcLifeYearsUsed As Double, ByVal CalcLocConvention As String, ByVal CalcSRate As Integer) As Double Dim locCalcFiscalAge As Integer = 0 Dim locFactor As Double= 1.0 Dim locFactor1 As Double = 1.0 Dim REM1 As Integer = 1 Dim DEP As Double = 0 Dim YR As Integer Dim HALF_YEAR As Double Dim LINEAR As Double Dim MACR As Double If CalcFiscalAge > CalcLifeCode + 1 Then locCalcFiscalAge = 0 locFactor = 1.0 End If If (CalcLocConvention <> "HALF-YEAR" And CalcLifeYearsUsed < CalcLifeCode) Then locFactor = Math.Round((CalcLifeYearsUsed / CalcLifeCode), 4) End If If (CalcLocConvention = "HALF-YEAR") Then for YR = 1 to CalcFiscalAge step 1 If YR = CalcLifeCode + 1 Then locFactor1 = 1 Exit For End If If (YR = 1 Or YR = CalcFiscalAge) Then HALF_YEAR = 2 Else HALF_YEAR = 1 End If LINEAR = Math.Round(REM1 / (CalcLifeCode - YR + 1.5) / HALF_YEAR, 4) MACR = Math.Round(REM1 / CalcLifeCode * CalcSRate / HALF_YEAR, 4) If MACR >= LINEAR Then DEP = MACR Else DEP = LINEAR End If locFactor1 = locFactor1 + DEP REM1 = 1 - locFactor1 locFactor = locFactor1 Next End If Return locFactor End Function
I'm calling this code in a Report Parameter like below:
It is working fine for the first record where as for other records, the value is not getting changed. i.e. the first records value is coming repeatedly for all other records also.
How can I dynamically change the parameter values of the function?
Parameter is not accepting directly the field names, hence I used other parameter to initialize the field and used that parameter for this.
Ex. Parameter Name ; FieldPurchDate (internal) FieldName : PURCHDATE Other parameter: FieldInDate (internal) FieldName : InDate
While initializing the new parameter CalcPurchDate,, I used an expression for this: Parameters!CalcFiscalAge.Value
=iif(Parameters!FieldPurchDate.Value is nothing, Parameters!FieldInDate.Value,Parameters!FieldPurchDate.Value)
and using this CalcPurchDate for processing of the parameter:
I have a SSRS report that parses RTF to TXT and displays it in a report. The report works fine and everything displays correctly. The subscription email, however, contains a report with errors: Request for the permission of type 'System.Security.Permissions.UIPermission, mscorlib, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture= neutral,PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089' failed.The report contains embedded code as well as references to System.Security and System. Windows. Forms. I've updated .....Reporting ServicesReportServer ssrvpolicy.config and ....Reporting ServicesReportManager smgrpolicy.config to change permissions to FullTrust.
As we know the limited features on SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services, but we can build advanced features for it with coding on it. Would please any experts shed me any light on it in a summary like what advanced features could be added with coding on SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services?
Thanks a lot in advance for your kind help and advices. And I am looking forward to hearing from you.
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:
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?
When I click on the DataSet Query Desginer there is an Error Source:.NetSqlClient Data Provider. why this error comes and I have executed the SQL query in SSMS succesfully and the result comes. However this is causing the report from the report manager to fail.
I am attempting to pass report parameters to my query. My report's data source is a WCF web service. I can run normal queries fine, but I have found that without the know-how to pass parameters to my query I am limited with my capabilities.
Assume a string parameter named "Name" with a specified default value of "Jmachol90", how would I pass that into the following query at the designated place:
