I have built an ASP.NET 2.0 application which is accessed both internally and externally. I have forms authentication implemented using an AspNetSqlMembershipProvider, also AspNetSqlRoleProvider and AspNetSqlProfileProvider have been implemented, all data is stored in the SQL 2005 database for the application.
I have been asked to start using SQL 2005 Reporting Services to create some complex financial reporting for the application.
My question is quite straight forward, can I use the security that is implemented in the application to grant and/or deny access to reports for this application in Reporting Services?
If so, please could you provide pointers to the information I'd need to implement this, hopefully in a 'Reporting Services Security for Dummies' style would be good.
We have 2005 Reporting Services fully functional - Dev, QA and prod (farm). I have at least 5 distinct business group trees in my structure, who have inherited or modified security based upon NT Users and AD groups. Now, we want to replace a major group (<domain_name>Domain Users) with a controlled group.
I cannot find anyway to report or map the folders that a specific NT User and AD group has rights. Cannot it be done?
I’m having problems with security for reporting services when using Windows Integrated Security as the connection type for the data source.
Here is the setup: The reporting service is on a virtual machine called cws-devtest. The database used by the reporting service is on a server called sql2005, and that database is Enterprise Edition. There is a cube from which the report retrieves data on a server called sql2005-dev, that is sql server 2005 Developer Edition.
I have created roles on sql2005-dev, and have assigned users and groups to those roles to achieve the security that I want. I have tested those roles using the cube browser, and using Excel 2007 and that looks very good.
I created a simple ssrs report to test security in that area, and am having trouble simply viewing any data, logged in as myself, using Windows Integrated Security.
Here is the error from the browser:
•An error has occurred during report processing. oCannot create a connection to data source 'trade_dw_cube'. #61607;The connection either timed out or was lost. #61607;Unable to read data from the transport connection: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host. #61607;An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host.
If I use “Credentials stored securely in the report server� in the browser for the data source, and enter my Windows username and password, and check the “Use as Windows credentials when connecting to the data source� checkbox, I can view the report, but that does not use the roles that I had already created. I prefer to use Windows Integrated Security.
Has anyone been able to use Windows Integrated Security with SSRS?
I removed the BUILTIN/Administrator Permissions on Reporting Server Website,and Added one domain account whose rights is just to read report, However this account still have more privileges than read, I found this account also in the Administrators Group of Report Server Machine,How does report services to identify account's permission? And I could not be allowed to remove this account from administrator group. Any Idea? Thanks
I am trying to implement row level security in reporting services. Could any help me on this by providing step by step process on this and would be great if you can also tell me what requirements(tables..) should we have to implement security? It would be great if you can proivde sampele code on this.
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?
I've implemented and tested cell level security on the cube. It's testing certain level conditions, and returns #N/A (as normal) when the user is not supposed to see the cell value. Since I always use .FormattedValue in my reports, works fine in Report Services (and Excel and ProClarity, etc.)
Here's the problem:
When RS parameters encounter this situation, the parameter dataset "breaks" (The following system error occurred: Type mismatch.) This is happening, because the parameter fields (ParameterValue, ParameterCaption, ParameterLevel) are being replaced by #N/A, due to the cell level security. This is happening, because these are actually defined as members, and hence passing through cell level security.
What I need to do is find a way to have these specific members bypass the cell level security, so that the parameter datasets still work. (Failing that, a new way of specifying parameters in MSRS.)
I've tried the following a a cell level security rule, but it doesn't seem to work:
[Measures].CurrentMember is [Measures].[ParameterValue] or [Measures].CurrentMember is [Measures].[ParameterCaption] or [Measures].CurrentMember is [Measures].[ParameterLevel] or [Measures].[Is Visible]
Hi, How programing add new <CodeGroup> element to SQL Server Reporting Services policy configuration file "rssrvpolicy.config"(location path:"C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQLReporting ServicesReportServer")???
I'm working on a project that requires integration of SQL Server Reporting Services with ASP.NET 3.0 Web Applications. I'm working on Visual Studio 2005, with SQL Server 2005 on an XP development workstation. SQL Server, Reporting Services, and IIS are all running on my local machine.
I'm trying to prototype two approaches, one using the Report Viewer control, and the second using the Reporting Services Web Service. I have the two examples setup in projects in Visual Studio. The sample reports and data sources work fine in Visual Studio. I can access the report using the Reporting Services URL like this: http://localhost/Reports/Pages/Report.aspx?ItemPath=%2fBTT_BDS_DEV%2fCustomers; Report works fine.
My problem is, that when I try and access the report using the Report Viewer inside an ASP.NET page or from the Web Serivce hooked up inside an ASP.NET Page I get a security errors. I have chosen Windows Security for the Datasource, and ASP.NET pages. In the case of the Web Service, I'm passing in my local domain user name as the credentials.
I'm prototyping this on my local workstation, but I need to design this to be used on our corporate Intranet using Windows Security.
My questions are:
1. How do I need to setup users on my local development workstation to get this to work. 2. How should I plan for user security for enterprise deployment, i.e. using Reporting Services inside a large ASP.NET Web Application? 3. Can anybody give me some links to some good developer type working examples of doing this. I've looked but have not found the answers to the "how do I setup users" part of the question specifcally related to ASP.NET apps?
Below is the code example of the Web Services example app I'm working with which came out of a book I have on Reporting Services. This example compiles and seems like it would work but doesn't. Also following are a few of the error messages I get when experimenting with the example apps:

I know from searching this forum that there have been many variations of the issue I'm currently suffering, but I haven't found anything quite like mine or a solution to solve it. The issue I'm running into is that I am unable to log on to Reporting Services using Management Studio or the web interface when Windows Integrated Security is enabled. I have full functionality using basic security, but the risks involved make it impossible to deploy basic authentication out into production. The error I'm receiving in Management Studio is The request failed with HTTP status 401: Unauthorized. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.UI.RSClient). I recieve the same error when I try the web interface.
I've looked the most recent logfile in WindowsSystem32LogFilesW3SVC1 and these entries match up to the time I attempted my authentication.

I tried to highlight one of each of the HTTP errors I am getting. 401.2 and 401.1 are the ones I kind of expected, but have no idea why I'm getting them. The 500 0 error is a bit troubling, because unless I'm mistaken thats a server side error.
Here's my current setup. As far as I can tell, I've done everything to set up correctly for Windows Integerated security.
My Specs The server machine running all SQL 2005 services. It resides in a domain. All Clients are in the same domain.
Intel Dual Processor 3.20 gig Xenon
Windows Server 2003 w/ SP2
Microsoft Sql Server 2005 w/ SP2 Reporting Services Setup The virtual directories Reports and ReportServer are set to Windows Integrated Security with Anonymous Access disabled. All other checkboxes in Directory Security are unchecked. For permissions in Reports, I have:
Administrators (servernameAdministrators) - Full Control

SYSTEM - Full Control
Users (CompNameUsers) - Read & Execute, List Folder Contents, Read In ReportServer I have the same permissions except Authenticated Users is absent.
At one point, I even added the account Everybody and gave it full control, and I still recieved a HTTP 401 error. Any help at what I might be missing would be a godsend.
I do a clean install of SQL Server + RS + SP1 with standard setup on Windows Server 2003. I create a simple report (select * from aTable). This report (actually any report) shows the error message "For security reasons DTD is prohibited in this XML document. To enable DTD processing set the ProhibitDtd property on XmlReaderSettings to false and pass the settings into XmlReader.Create method."
This has to do with security settings in Windows Server 2003. On Windows XP everything works fine.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Edit: The reports do work in the preview tab in BIDS.
I am trying the get the custom security extension samples to work on my machine. I have installed everything according the sameple help file. However, i am getting a "Authentication Ticket is not issued by LogonUser." error after I attempted to log on to the report manager thru UILogon.aspx page. I already created an admin user. Upon a closer inspection, I realized that the authentication went thru okay, however, the authentication Ticket Name contained in the "RSAuthenticationHeader" has a duplicate value of "sqlauthticket, sqlauthticket". So apparently, the report server added this value twice to the response header. Has anyone seen this error before? How would you fix it? Also to bypass this error, I parsed out the header and take the correct auth ticket name, now report manager just redisplays the logon page and not letting me thru. Has anyone have seen that before? I am running in Win 2003 server, IIS 6, .NET 2.0 and SQL server 2005 enterprise version.
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'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 have a small problem with the data sources in the reporting services, maybe you can clarify the situation... I have a MS CRM 3 solution with the reporting services 2005 installed. From an other vendor we have a arcplan solution on the 2000 analysis services. I would like to get access from the 2005 reporting services to the 2000 cube. Is this possible? Ive read that the SSMS cant connect to the 2000 cubes. Can i connect from the reporting services??
I am trying to import Access reports using Visual Studio 2005 and Access 2007. SQL Server 2005 with Reporting Services is also installed. I select Reports in the Solution Explorer and then Import Reports... Microsoft Access and browse to my Access database. After I select the database I see it open briefly as if it is trying to import the reports but then Access quickly closes and a error pops up: "You already have the database open." I have checked and double checked and the database is not open. I have even tried several different databases and the same errror occurs. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I'm trying to make some reports using the sql 2005 reporting services addin for Visual Web Developer Express 2005. I download the add-in here. So far it installed "successfully". The problem i have is when i try to add a datasource to the report at "Report > Data Sources... " it gives me an error saying: "The system cannot find the file specified."
Another Error it gives is that when I try to drag a DataSet field from the Website Data Sources toolbox tab the visual web developer crashes :/.
An observation that I don't know if this is ok is when I create a new Data Source it creates an App_Code folder inside where my report is /Reports/ and there it saves the DataSet. Just an observation...

Hi, I want to get data from Oracle 10g Stored procedure to Reporting Services 2005. I could pass a SQL text and get a record set, but I want to execute a store proc and get the record set.
1. Add New Data Source 2. Choose Type : Oracle and connection tested OK 3. { call Test_Package.Test_Procedure(?) } is it wrong... how to write??? There is an error in the query. ORA-00911: invalid character
Also make sure that you use the text-based generic query designer (2 panes !) instead of the visual query designer (4 panes) - you can switch between them through an icon on the toolbar in the data view of report designer. Question : I tried many methods but unable to solve it...
create or replace PACKAGE Test_Package AS TYPE Test_Type IS REF CURSOR RETURN Test_Table%ROWTYPE; END Test_Package;
create or replace PROCEDURE Test_Procedure ( Test_Cursor IN OUT Test_Package.Test_Type, Test_Parameter IN Test_Table.ID%TYPE ) AS BEGIN OPEN Test_Cursor FOR SELECT * FROM Test_Table WHERE Test_Table.ID >= Test_Parameter; END Test_Procedure;
The below site gave some example but i could not solve it... any suggestions greatly appreciated...
I'm using Report Builder to create a new report. The problem I'm having is that once I choose a Field from an Entity in the Entities list I can only choose Fields from that Entity. For example, I have two Entities, one called Customers and the other called Delivery. Within the Customer Entity I have several Fields that I want to add to my report, say First Name and Last Name. From the Delivery Entity I have a Status Field which I'd like to include but because I have no way to get back to my Entities list, without removing the Fields from my Report, I can't include that Field.
If I remove the Fields from my report, the Entities list then populates with both the Customers and Delivery Entities, THEN I can choose my Delivery Entity and select the Status Field. But I can't get back to the Customer Entity. I keep going back and forth.
I'm not exactly sure what I'm doing wrong, or if there is a more efficient manner to accomplish what I'm trying to do.
What is the best option to monitor user accesses to published reports? IT department wants to have an idea about the need (value and time) of produced reports.
I am getting the following error while I am connecting SQL 2005 reporting services through local and outside
http://localhost/reports
http://servername/reprots
I configured through all the stems through reproting services configuration
You advise/suggestion is greately appriciated.

I am trying to use reporting services 2005 with a VB SQL stored procedure that i created in visual studio using CLR.
The stored procedure was created successfuly in SQL server but while linking the report to the stored procedure, i am receiving the following message "An error occurred while retrieving the parameters in the query. The stored procedure 'mysp' doesn't exist.
I have a sql server 2000 database and sql server reporting services 2000 installed on it i want to install 2005 sql reporting services on sql server 2000 Is Sql server reporting services 2005 works fine with sql server 2000 and what are the settings that i have to perform.
I am trying to learn Reporting Services using the title "MS SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services Step by Step" by Stacia Misner and Hitachi Consulting, published in 2006. I am experiencing problems with some of the exercises. I got as far as Chapter 4 when I followed directions to create a SQL statement to define a query string for a dataset. Pg 80:
select * from vProductProfitability
where year = 2003 and
MonthNumberOfYear = 1
The view vProductProfitability does not exist in the tutorial database that came with the book, rs2005sbsDW. The result of this query is the basis for the entire chapter on developing basic reports and I'm being denied a learning opportunity because the view does not exist. In short, I'm stuck.
I have tried to find somewhere at Microsoft to place this question and get some answers so I can continue thru the tutorial. To no avail. Does anyone have any suggestions?
BTW, the solution that came in the CD is also wrong because the query noted above is also in the solution.
My first installation of SQL 2005 requires the use of Reporting Services. Is Reporting Services always installed on the same server as SQL Server 2005 or do I have the option of having it run outside of the database server? If I have this option, is this something that Microsoft recommends? I'm concerned with having IIS and SQL Server on the same server, however if that's the new 2005 best practice then there's not much I can do about it.
We've got 2 servers: one is dedicated database server (NSWNOFUSQD01) and the other one is application/web server (NSWNOFUAPA01).
We've installed the SQL server Database Services, Notification Services, Integration Services and Workstation components, Books Online and development tools into NSWNOFUSQD01 (databases server).
We leave Reporting Service cause we don't want to install the application on this box but we want to install onto different box but the reporting database need to install into NSWNOFUSQD01. So we've tried to install the reporting services into NSWNOFUAPA01 - app server. But while installing it we don't have an option to tell that the database is pointing to different server?!?!.
Any ideas? Are missing step here? I saw these environment working - web instaaling on the app server and database installing on database server.
I'm currently involved in a project where I am working on an application utilising ASP.NET with a SQL Server 2005 backend.
So far, it has worked well - however, there is a seperate team that has a bunch of reports using Reporting Services 2005 that we would like to display on our site.
Obviously, the 2.0 Reporting Services control is not going to work on 1.1, i was wondering is that any sort of way for me to display these RS reports on my 1.1 site?
We are in the process of doing a side by side installation of the SQLserver 2000 and SQL server 2005 on the same server. To install theReporting services feature of SQL server 2005 requires IIS. We have aseperate web server running IIS that connects to the database server.My question is : can we still install Reporting services on thedatabase server without the IIS?Thank you
