SP2 Report Builder And Default Save Location
Feb 27, 2007
Prior to SP2, when you clicked the save button it would take you to the root of Report Server. With SP2 (in old-style Report Manager mode, not Sharepoint integrated mode) it takes you to the /Models directory by default when you click save. Is there a way around this?
If I launch Report Builder via the following URL, it does fix the problem. But it doesn't let me pick table/matrix/chart. I would like to override the default save location AND be able to let the user pick table/matrix/chart:
http://localhost/reportserver/reportbuilder/reportbuilder.application?model=/Models/MyModel&savelocation=
Suggestions?

is there a way to change SSMS 2012 default query save location?
Scenario:
1. Open SSMS
2. Create new query
3. Click Save
I see "DocumentsSQL Server Management Studio" folder, but I want to change it to be "d:". How do I do this?
I tried:
1. [URL]- in folder "DocumentsSQL Server Management StudioSettingsSQL Server Management Studio" there is a file NewSettings.vssettings, setting it to "d:" or "d:" didn't work.
2. Changing HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftMicrosoft SQL Server100ToolsShell VisualStudioProjectsLocation didn't work too. There is no "Shell" under "110Tools"
Did I do something wrong, or is there another way?

Hi,
I have environment that use SSRS 2005 ad hoc reporting.
One of the users (out of 200) is unable to open or save reports in the report builder.
the user succeed to open the report builder, when he try to save report that he build from shema he get error. as well when he try to open an existing report that build in the report builder he also get an error,
On open the error is:
The numeric portion of 2pt cannot be parsed as a unit of the type point.
The Initilizer for 'Microsoft.ReportingServices.Design.Constants' threw an exception
On Save the error is:
System.IO.StreamReader: Deserialization failed: The type initializer for 'Microsoft.ReportingServices.Design.Constants' threw an exception. Line 2, position 2
Please note that I succeed with second user to create ad hoc report on the first user
computer. I also failed to with the first user to create ad hoc on another computer.
It seems like permissions issue
Thanks,
Assaf

Hi,
In Report Builder(SSRS 2005 sp2), is there a way to automatically save a report the user is working on? The problem is that somtimes a user would be spending a long time working on a new report and the connection would timeout and the user has to start all over again.

I am new to sql sever management studio express, but a long time query analyzer user. This is a very basic question.
I want to change the default directory in sql server management studio express so that when I go to save a query, it is already pointed to the correct one. Where do I change that?
Thanks,
Nanci

Hi,
When i select datasource in Report Builder, i am able to see all the available DataSources.
Eg: I have selected one datasource from the list and which has 3 tables(table1, table2, table3) associated to that datasource.
when i drag and drop table1 fields to report, i am not able to see the other 2 tables(table2 & table3)
Is there any property or relationship do i need to maintain?
Thanks,
SR.

I have an SSIS package that I created that looks like the following:
Execute SQL Task [Determines the file name]
Data Flow Task
Source - Query [Grabs the data]
Destination [Saves data to file on network drive]
Send Mail Task [Tells user to get file from network]
When I run this package inside Microsoft
Visual Studio I get the results I want. It sends the file to the
network drive and because there are SSN's in the file, it doesn't
actually e-mail the file but puts it in a secure location for the
person to get the file.
When I schedule this in SQL Server 2005 I get the file saved to: c:windowssystem32dynamicfilename.csv
So somehow it is still able to determine what the file name should be, but instead of sending the file to the right destination when you run it through VS, it flops out and sends it to this wacky directory.
I've
spent too much time on this and was wondering if someone can point me
in the right direction without going to the extent of writing a script
like this suggests. thread1555-1265108
Thanks,
Keith

I have developed on winodws based application using C# in .NET. I am connecting from my database using internet, means my database kept on remote location. I have to save images in DB because I can't save and access images in external folder from remote location. In this situation my DB is growing very fast. Is there any other alternative to work on this requirement or compress image in any format so that I can reduce DB size.

Hey,
I'm trying to get the information where the databases are stored by default.
With Management Studio I can look on Server Properties -> Database Settings -> Database Default locations
Is there a way to read this information in TSQL?
Cheers,

I have VS2008 Express and I am using Sql Server Compact Edition 3.5 which is distributed with it.
As I experienced, there is no possibility to use this database from Sql Server Management Studio (because it is version 3.5 and Management Studio demands version 3.1).
So, the only possibility to design a query is to use the built in Query Builder in Visual Studio Express. This query builder does not save the Diagram Pane content layout. I mean, when a query has 10 tables, I place these tables in the Diagram Pane in some order that makes sense (e.g. to make all relations visible). After saving and reopening the query in Query Builder, all tables are on the left side, in a complete disorder.
Is it possible to somehow save the Diagram Pane content along with the SQL ??

I'm setting up a new server and would like the default location for the transaction logs to be on a different drive from the databases. Seems like the best way to do this would be to configure the Master database log location for the drive & directory where I want all trans logs stored. So far, I've been unable to accomplish this. I know I can specify the log location manually each time I create a database, but I'm hoping to configure a default. Is this possible to configure? And if so, how?
Environment is W2k with SQL7.
TIA, Sara

If you enter "Create Database test", the database files (mdf file & log file) are created, by default, in:-
C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQLData
I want to change that to:-
D:Database Files
I sucessfully moved the model database to this location (using the instructions in BOL) assuming that all new databases would now get created in the same location, but they don't. They still get created in:
C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQLData
So how do I change the default?
(It's not satisfactory to have to move each database after it's created)
Thanks, Andy Abel

Hello
The default location where db's are created is almost full.
Is there any way to change the default location where the .mdf and .ldf are created when I create a new db? I know I can do this when I create a new db and go select where I want it to be, but can I make it default to a different directory automatically so no human intervention is needed?

I have installed my modell database onto c:mssql7data...
How do I now change the properties of this so that when someone creates a database, the path it will get created to is set to d:
I thought that I could just move model, but it seems that this isn't possible.
Any advice?

I have only SQL engine installed to my D drive. (SQL Server 2005 no SP1)
I want to install SSIS to my D drive but i can not.
It only gives me the option to install to the default drive C:...
saying that "the sql shared path has already been configured"
Is this a BUG ?
No Tools nor Notification Services are installed (which i understood to be related to the same path as SSIS)

Hi,
I would like to change the default location where new databases are created.
In Server Management Studio, I right clicked my instance and selected Properties. I selected the Database Settings option and am presented with an option to change the Database Default Location (the location for databases and logs can be changed here). If I change the paths for the DB's and logs, and create a new DB, the new files are saved to the new default location paths that I just entered.
My question is this:
If I change these paths, will my system databases (master, model, msdb, tempdb) still be accessible and usable by SQL server? I don't need (want) to change the location of these files, only all my other databases and logs.
Will this do what I want?
Thanks for the help!

I have just installed SQL Server 2005. I was not given a choice during installation (that I remember seeing anyway) about which drive I wanted to place the default SQL instance on.
It ended up on C: and I needed it on D:.
So my questions are:
Is there a way to move it to D: that is easier than the way you had to go about it in SQL 2000?
Is there a way to do it during setup so I can avoid this in the future?

After I use the report builder to create a generic report, how do I actually get that report into the report designer so that I can modify it more effectivly?
The issue that I have now is that the file on the report server is not a .rdl file and if I simply save it as one and then bring it into VS to modify it the code file is a html structure rater than a XML file type.
Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks

Hi,
We've had this issue for awhile, but I have not been able to find a resolution for this. We have 2 identical servers (hardware & software) set-up: IBM x3850-(88633RU) running Windows Server 2003 Enterprise x64 (5.2.3790 SP1 Build 3790 R2). Server A was running SP1 (Build 9.0.2047) on a 3-node active-passive-passive failover cluster. Server B was running SP2 + Hotfix KB933097 (Build 9.0.3152) on a 2-node active-passive failover cluster. Both these servers are heavily utilized, and when originally installed with these versions of SQL Server Enterprise 2005 experienced no issues during or post-install. The original install of SQL 2005 Enterprise on both these servers had the Cluster Group Selection "Data files" setting changed to "M:MICROSOFT SQL SERVER" so that all system dbs and binaries would be installed to that location. On Server B where SP2 had already been applied, the update was downloaded on May 1, 2007, well after the GDR issues which had been plaguing SP2 releases was supposed to have been resolved.
Our problems began the night when we tried to apply hotfix KB933097 on Server A, and cumulative update packages 1,2,3 on Servers A & B, as well as catch-up the same SP2 and hotfix packages on other non-clustered servers where default system db locations remained the same. On all servers other than Servers A and B, the installs proceeded smoothly and without issue.
On Server B, which was already running SP2 + Hotfix KB933097, we tried installing Cumulative Update Package 1 (Build 9.0.3161) on the primary node. The install proceeded until the following errors were encountered:
"[Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server]Cannot find the object 'dm_exec_query_resource_semaphores', because it does not exist or you do not have permission."
"[Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server]Cannot find the object 'dm_exec_query_memory_grants', because it does not exist or you do not have permission."
After this, the setup finished with the message "Product: Microsoft SQL Server 2005 (64-bit) - Update 'Hotfix 3161 for SQL Server Database Services 2005 (64-bit) ENU (KB935356)' could not be installed. Error code 1603. Additional information is available in the log file C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server90Setup BootstrapLOGHotfixSQL9_Hotfix_KB935356_sqlrun_sql.msp.log."
We rebooted the server and tried several times to reinstall the hotfix as sa and as the database service account with full windows and sa credentials, each time with no success, and rebooting between retries. All other components were installed successfully. We were hesitant to try uninstalling the hotfix, since it was unable to be removed successfully in previous attempts. However, when I connected to Database Engine using Management Studio, I found that the version of SQL being reported was in fact Build 9.0.3161! Everything also appeared to be running properly.
I tried to to Google the answer, but could only find information as applied to SP1 when system dbs master and mssqlsystemresource were located on different locations (http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;918695 ). I had already verified that all system dbs, including the ones mentioned, were originally and currently located together on M:Microsoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLData.
Finally I contacted a fellow DBA who advised me to continue installing all the other hotfixes, and then compare all SQL files against other servers where the install succeeded to ensure all system files were updated correctly (matching file sizes and datetime stamps). Since we were depending on a fix in Cumulative Update Package 3 to fix a critical log-shipping security issue, I went ahead with the rest of the installs, getting the same error with each package, rebooting between each install.
We found after the final install that the mssqlsystemresource files in the M:Microsoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLData
directory were in fact updated after each install with a new timestamp, and that all files in C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLBinn matched on both file size and timestamp. The log-shipping security issue we were looking to fix also appeared to be resolved by the last update.
On Server A, which was running SP1 (Build 9.0.2047), we installed the same SP2 package as we had on Server B with no issue. We rebooted and then tried to apply the same Hotfix KB933097 (Build 9.0.3152) that had been applied successfully on Server B and found to our surprise that the same errors were being generated here as well. We continued to apply the rest of the hotfixes so that both servers matched software updates. Comparing the above directories showed that files seemed to have been updated, even though database services appeared to be not installed.
It looks like we now need Cumulative Update 5 hotfix package in order to deal with WMI alerting issues, but I'm afraid to apply it until we have a known resolution for the past errors.
Since this issue was supposed to be resolved by SP2, I'm not sure why these post-SP2 hotfixes should fail. It seems to me to be an issue of the directory location of the system files which is in question.
I can post the hotfix log files as well, if anyone is interested in seeing them.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. As well, does anyone have any idea when SP3 is scheduled to come out? I really don't like applying hotfixes which are usually untested for general purposes, and it seems Microsoft is delaying this in favour of releasing SQL 2008.

I've created a linked server with a pretty basic Excel spreadsheet, and used this command to create a linked server to it:
sp_addlinkedserver ''XL_SPS_1', 'Excel', 'Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0', 'c:MyExcel.xls', null, 'Excel 8.0'
I want to use this as the data from which to build a report model. As linked servers don't show up in the Data Source View wizard, I created a view in SQL Server:
create view MyExcel
as
select * from XL_SPS_1...Sheet1$
Okay, great, now the view shows up in the DSV wizard and I can create the data source view. However, when I create a new report model based on this data source view, the Report Model Wizard tells me at "Create entities for all tables" that I've got an error when it processes dbo_MyExcel that "Table does not have a primary key."
I assume this is where the identifying attributes for the entities in the report model are taken from, so I really can't go further. Does anyone have an idea as to how to add a primary key to a linked server (Excel) in SQL 2005? Can this be done? Other than importing spreadsheet data to a SQL table, how can I get around this?
Thanks,

We have a remote business client who has a proxy server setup and this translates into receiving a 407 proxy authentication blocking error when attempting to download the report builder application for deployment off the report server which is housed locally with us. The proxy server does not allow them to download application type files off another site. At the moment, they would not like to disable the proxy for these users to allow them to deploy the application on their client or add the report server as a trusted site. Is there a method by which Report Builder can be locally installed on the client pc instead of online only with it knowing the correct report server to access and then still launch correctly when the report builder button is pressed through report manager?
I am not a web application guru by any means and we have tried to replicate the oneclick deployment and what occurs in the local settings/apps/2.0 subdirectories, but the application still attempts to download/install again. If we attempt to just launch the local executable on the client, report builder assumes the client pc (localhost) is the report server to access. Is there a method which will succeed?

I have a report builder drill down report. I have row groups with totals. It looks like the attached. The problem is when the report is not expanded the Grand Totals column is not accurate... it is displaying the totals of one of the rows when expanded.The expression in the Total Show text box is
= Switch (
MID(Fields!protocol_id.Value,1,7)="THERAPY",
Sum(IIF(Fields!status.Value = "CO", CDbl(Fields!TX_CO.Value), Nothing)),
MID(Fields!protocol_id.Value,1,7) = "GENERAL" and MID(Fields!program_id.Value,1,6)
= "INTAKE", Sum(IIF(Fields!status.Value = "CO",

Is there any way to not display the expression in the Total columns unless the report is expanded?

HI, there,
I added a new windows user "ReportUser" which is a local user (not in administrator group). When I connect to the report manage's web page, I use reportuser to log in (when the anonymous access is disabled it will ask a log in). Report builder icon is not showing up on the report manager home page.
If I log in as a user in administrator group, the reportr builder icon shows up so I can download it and build report.
I have assigned reportuser "Content manager" and "repoter builder" access to the home folder. Is there anything else I have to do to make the report build icon show up on the home page?
Thanks
