Hi,
I am using calendar control to get a date range in a report which is viewed in a aspx page (inside a master page) using reportviewer.
works fine in IE. but the calendar vanishes within 2 secs in firefox and opera browsers.
thanks in advance
I am facing this issue  In Fire Fox browser .When I click the Page Navigation Button , The Page Refreshes , but it not  Navigating to the next or previous page .How ever It is working fine all other browsers .Â
 Â
<rsweb:ReportViewer ID="ReportViewer1" runat="server" ProcessingMode="Remote" Width="100%" Heigh="100%" Â SizeToReportContent="true" Â AsyncRendering="false"Â >
        <ServerReport ReportServerUrl="" />
      </rsweb:ReportViewer>
It seems the features are disabled when using any of the above because of compatibility issues with scripting/ActiveX not being properly supported by the FireFox and Chrome.
I believe the control determines the browser you are using is not IE and will not render the controls to prevent unexpected behavior because if the lack of ActiveX support. This can be seen when you compare the HTML of a page using IE8 and that of either IE11, FF, Chrome you'll see that the HTML for a zoom drop down control will show up in the IE8 browser and not in the others.
As for IE11 it presents itself as a Mozilla browser. eg: "User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; Trident/7.0; rv:11.0) like Gecko" so when the control see's this it wont generate any of the controls believing the browser can't support it, even though IE11 should certainly be capable of doing so. I wanted to know if this is correct and if this is a bug?
Browser Support for ReportViewer "The ReportViewer Web server control is used to embed report functionality in an ASP.NET Web application. The type of browser used to view the application determines the kind of functionality that you can provide in a report.

The page mentions that the following wont be supported by other browsers The following features are not supported in third-party browsers:

Hello,
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?
Any help is appreciated
I'm attempting to obtain a cost effective solution for my existing customers to develop reports on their SQL 2000 Server installations using their Reporting Services 2000. With products like Visual Basic.NET 2003 becoming almost impossible to obtain, I have at least one customer who is running into a dead end.
One option possibly is the SQL Express with Advanced Services download, which has Reporting Services. My questions are as follows:
Can the report designer component of SQL Express Reporting Services be configured to connect to an external database (which would happen to be a SQL 2000 database) to establish its datasets?
Does the resultant designed report end up in an RDL file? If the customer published this report via the Reporting Services 2000 Report Manager, would the report be able to run?
Sorry for asking a question like this that I could probably answer on my own, but my customer needed this answer yesterday. I have scoured the web and microsoft sites - and posted a question on the official SQL Reporting Services cateogy ... in an attempt to answer the basic question of how to design reports for Reporting Services 2000 in the absence of Visual Basic.NET 2003 (or other .NET 2003 tools) with no success.
Thanks to anyone who can help.

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
dispaly(ID, NAME_AR, JobTitle_AR)Â
Hint:this done pragmatically
how to do this in reporting services.
Hi There,
Our DBA has installed reporting services on a server and now in order to access the report manager, one has to be an Admin on that Server. I am guessing that there is a mistake in the configuration of Reporting Services. Usually it should allow anybody who was added to the roles in the properties section of the Report Manager, right? I have also added the users to the DB..
Also I am using Windows Authentication to access Report Catalog items (Reporting Services is installed on Server2) from a web Application(deployed on Server1) and displaying the report using report viewer. For some reason, server1 has to be in an Admin role on Server2 to access the report catalog/report. This is kinda strange for me as I don't want everybody to be an Admin on Server2. Can anybody please point in the right direction?
Thanks.

Hi all,
I have some problem about reporting service add-in.

I try to uninstall and re-install again, it remain not work.
How can I solve this problem?
Thank you very much.
Is there any way to get the report toolbar using SOAP Api  in SSRS reporting.
View 6 Replies View RelatedWhen I open a .NET report viewer in Netscape or Firefox, the report is compressed to a small sliver on the left hand side of the screen. However, the report displays properly in Internet Explorer.
Is there special code that I have to put in place to get a report viewer to display properly in netscape or firefox?
I've seen many posts about lack of non-IE browser compatibility, but still no solution (MyIEtab ISN'T a solution). The CSS fix solves it partially, but not completely, and the fix of putting a rectangle in the top is just a joke.
Currently my reports can't be browsed by Firefox and other Mac browsers, and that's going to be a stopper for further using of SSRS in the future in my company. I was expecting SP2 to do something about this, but it hasn't solved anything. I'm sure it's a very easy patch for MS, but by maintaining this (artificial?) limitation they're going to make us move from SSRS and even the full SQL Server stack for future projects.
Any other *real* solution, other than CSS and big rectangle in the top of the report?
Hi,
We are using the RSClientPrint component to print reports from our web application. When we use it from IE all works fine. But on using the FireFox the print method fails. I am using following code to print
Code Snippet
var oRSClientPrint = window.document.getElementById("RSClientPrint");
alert(oRSClientPrint);
if (typeof oRSClientPrint.Print == "undefined")
{
alert("Unable to load client print control.");
return;
}
In FireFox above code fails by raising error message "Unable to load client print control.". As per me FireFox is not able to use the Print method of object, Can you help me on how we can make it to work with FireFox.
Thanks and Regards,

We've got a requirement to build the real time report. user can browse report at any point of time and need to see the latest data(stock market) in the report.
I've few options down...
1. Directly point to OLTP database as source and write stored procedure to show result set.
2. Replicate the database and write the SP's to reports. To avoid pointing directly to OLTP db.
3. To build the datawarehouse with dim & facts to show it in reports. I prefer this as a standard method, but this would have some latency depending on trasaction load which will differ from the requirement.
HI There
We are required to gather certain information regarding reporting services.
Which reports were requested, by whom , how long did they run for, what parameters were passed etc etc.
I see that the system tables do provide some of this information, is there a 3rd party tool or something we can use to gather all this type of information for us?
This is for reporting services 2000 and 2005.
Thanx
I would like to know how to show all the records returned (upto 1000) in one single page on a web browser. I am able to get the required report in IE but in case of Firefox it hangs.
Did some test and found that Firefox is able to render a report of upto max 300 records in a single page without getting hanged but report is coming very slow. While you scroll the scroll bar it€™s moving with Jerks. with 200 records in a single page is not getting hanged but report is faster than 300 records display. But by 500 records Firefox hangs. I understand it might be depending on the hardware also but am not sure.
Can anybody give me a good solution to display upto 1000 records in a single page or if its a limitation, where can i get the documentation of it.
Thanks and regards

Because of some peculiar way of using CSS, the reports aren't rendered correctly in Firefox. I've tryed specifying different rendering options (html 4 for instance) but it didn't help. What are my options on this? I could use Webservices (SOAP) and wrap SSRS in a proxy, but I'd have to parse reports and extract the data and build my own presentation layer. This way I'd be missing half of the SSRS functionality. Any ideas?

I am experiencing a problem with the multi-value parameter dropdown in the ReportViewer when using FireFox, but in IE it seems to work fine. The symptom is when I click on the dropdown the list of options appears and then quickly disappears before I can select anything and I only experience the problem with multi-value parameters. I also have noticed that the dropdown is grayed out but I can still click it. Also, the position of the dropdown options are different in FireFox (pushed all the way to the left). I have created a very basic example at https://www.register4this.com/testreport.aspx to demonstrate the problem. There is no report, only the single "Orgs" parameter to keep things as simple as possible.
I suspect that I am missing something obvious because I haven't been able to find anyone else reporting this issue so any help would be appreciated. My ReportView control is configured as follows:

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
We built our prod server [vm] with SQL Server 2008 R2 on Server 2008 R2. It works nicely. Then we made a copy of the VM and renamed it (so our test environment would be IDENTICAL to production). After that, SSRS was broken: I get "HTTP Error 503. The service is unavailable." I can't connect via http, or SSMS.
We have tried:
*Â Running SSRS config tool (several times)
* Running with/without the IIS Server Role
*Â Dropping & recreating the SSRS keys
*Â Recreating the ReportServer database, etc
*Â Checking all of the accounts, permissions, etc
*Â Running SQL Repair
*Â Going through the registry to fix any references to the machine's old name
*Â Uninstalling, reinstalling SSRS
* Completely uninstalling ALL of the parts of SQL Server 2008 R2, deleting all directories, removing references to SQL Server from the registry, rebooting, reinstalling everything.
None of this has worked. SSRS [R2] is still 503 on our test box.
the SSRS [NT] service seems to run, without error. The Event Viewer doesn't seem to be recording any errors. The SSRS logs say that the default URL is wrong, but we get the same error in Prod, and Prod works fine. The other SQL Logs say something about not being able to contact the service. However, as I said, the [NT] service seems to be working fine.
I think I've seen a similar post on a blog or on the forums - but it seems like this should be possible -
I have an MDX query - that works fine in SQL Enterprise Manager, and has my dimension members on columns, and my measures on the rows. When I try the same query in Reporting Services, I get the error:
"The query cannot be prepared: The query must have at least one axis. The first axis of the query should not have multiple hierarchies, nor should it reference any dimension other than the Measures dimension..
Parameter name: mdx (MDXQueryGenerator)"
Although it works when you pivot the view, I really need my data presented with the members on the columns and the measures on the rows. Another forum post mentioned using the SQL 9.0 driver, but I can't see this listed anywhere (the only one I see is the .NET framework Data Provider for Microsoft Analysis Services).
Here's what my query looks like -
SELECT
{ [Time].[Month].&[2006-09-01T00:00:00] ,
[Time].[Month].&[2006-10-01T00:00:00],
[Time].[Month].&[2006-11-01T00:00:00],
[Time].[Month].&[2006-12-01T00:00:00]
} on COLUMNS,
{
[Measures].[Unique Users],
[Measures].[UU Pct 1],
[Measures].[UU Pct 2],
} ON ROWS
FROM [Cube]
Any ideas?
Thanks,

Sorry, but I am returning to Firefox browser and the squished fields. While running under VS-TFS and developing a web application, I view my report with Cassini back-end server (debug/F5). I cut and paste the URL line into Firefox. The report views just fine. I deploy the report to the web site and now the same report viewing with Firefox exhibits the famous squished columns (wow). If I understand this correctly, this would indicate that the problem is not Firefox but IIS rendering. What are your feelings?
View 13 Replies View RelatedWhen I try to run a simple table report using Safari or Firefox the experience is less than stellar.
Using Safari the report never returns, basically the pag body is blank.
Using Firefox the table layout is very compressed.
Anything changes in the works to allow the reporting server to be used by non IE browser.
We run in a multi-platform environment and need the multiple browser support.

SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services
Hi All,
I'm trying to create reports in RS2005 using AS2000 as my data source. I understand that if I use RS2005 on AS2000, I wont be able to enjoy the OLAP based parameters as in using AS2005. Does anyone know an easy way to easily use Parameters in RS2005 while still using AS2000?

I'm using Reporting Services 2005 SP1 and wrote some code to render reports server-side.
My sample report has few parameters that must be passed so I pass these parameters with code.
<My code>
ReportServiceExecution.ReportExecutionService rs = new ReportServiceExecution.ReportExecutionService();
rs.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;
string extension, mimeType, encoding;
ReportServiceExecution.Warning[] warnings;
string[] streamID;
ParameterValue[] parameters = new ParameterValue[2];
parameters[0] = new ParameterValue();
parameters[0].Name = "pID";
parameters[0].Value = "6548747";
parameters[1] = new ParameterValue();
parameters[1].Name = "pClass";
parameters[1].Value = "8";
ExecutionHeader header = new ExecutionHeader();
ExecutionInfo executionInfo = rs.LoadReport(reportPayslip.Name, null);
executionInfo = rs.SetExecutionParameters(parameters, "en-us");
rs.ExecutionHeaderValue = header;
rs.ExecutionHeaderValue.ExecutionID = executionInfo.ExecutionID;
byte[] report = rs.Render("PDF", "<DeviceInfo><Toolbar>False</Toolbar></DeviceInfo>", out extension, out mimeType, out encoding, out warnings, out streamID);
</My code>
Actually, I have several more parameters but I've checked the collection and all the parameters I want are there and have values. Their names match those found in executionInfo.Parameters. But when I run my code I get the following error on Render():
<Error>
"This report requires a default or user-defined value for the report parameter 'pClass'. To run or subscribe to this report, you must provide a parameter value. ---> This report requires a default or user-defined value for the report parameter 'pClass'. To run or subscribe to this report, you must provide a parameter value. ---> This report requires a default or user-defined value for the report parameter 'pClass'. To run or subscribe to this report, you must provide a parameter value."
</Error>
I've double-checked and my parameter array does have the problematic parameter, I passed it a value but when I check executionInfo.Parameters I see that it's the only parameter that hasn't been give a default value after calling SetExecutionParameters(). So my parameters do seem to be passed but one seems to refuse getting a value. If I comment out the SetExecutionParameters() line I get, as expected a similar error but on another parameter (first one in the executionInfo.Parameters collection). So I'm left to beleive that the SetExecutionParameters() has some kind of bug as it works for all but one parameter. I've checked casing, spelling, tried passing phony parameters and from what I've seen I should be getting an error when I pass the parameters if I got something wrong.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Hi,
I am invoking RS web services to render reports, using Apache Axis to generate stub classes from Reporting Service WSDL.
Please let me know if I can integrate Report Viewer control in the jsp where I am writing the report output. Else do I have to create my own custom tags simulating ReportViewer functionality.
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?

If I select Year"2010" in Period Filter and "CityTwo" In City Filter.I see Related reports . Now I navigate to Dashboard_Two to See Other Reports where I have few Other Filter Like "Country" where I select "CountryThree" . When I navigate Back to Dashboard_one I do not see Dashboard with Default value given to them
I still see Filter value Year=2010 and CountryFilter="CountryTwo" in Dashboard Dashboard_One .. where as I should have seen it based on the Default value given to the Filter.. How should I resolve this refresh issue which I am facing in PPS Dashboard. I do not see Default value in the Filter ,It always give the filter value which was selected later when Navigated back.
