SQL Reporting Services 2005: Querying A SQL Server 2000 Database
Feb 5, 2008
Is there any way to deploy reports to a Report Manager in SQL Server Reporting Services 2005 if the reports query SQL Server 2000 databases? Or are only 2005 databases able to deploy to the web?
Also, if I have a report that queries both, can I deploy it to the web on the 2005 Report Manager with a linked server to the 2000 server?
Hello, We want the reporting tool to be integrated with visual studio 2005. From my understanding SQL reporting services 2000 can be integrated only with visual studio 2003 (Please correct me if I am wrong) . Hence we have decided to go for SQL reporting services 2005 I understand that SQL reporting services 2005 can be used with SQL server 2000 database. I want to know if SQL reporting services 2005 and SQL server 2000 database are on a single machine, would a single license for SQL server 2000 suffice or should we have a license for sql server 2005 (since we use SQL reporting services 2005) as well.
Hi friends, i have some questions about Reporting Services 2005:
Can i use RS 2005 with a SQL 2000 Database? Can i create a report with RS 2005 (with a SQL 2K Database) a show it in a webform? What do i need to install (in the webserver and in the Database server) in order to start designing reports in RS 2005 against a SQL 2K DB?Thanks in advance. Regards Eduardo
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 successfully got SQL 2005 Express with reporting services running under VISTA. Developed some reports in the VISTA environment. However, my target system is a Windows 2000 server. We installed SQL 2005 w/reporting services onto the Windows 2000 server. SQL2005 Database is up and running. Reporting Services are running, IIS RRS virtual directories are built, RRS databases are built. I can do everything except deploy reports from Business Intelligent Studio. I can preview reports, just cannot deploy. The Reporting Services indicate 1 failure in its configuration; the Web Service Identity. It is loaded with <server>ASPNET. I cannot get rid of this error. I assume this is the problem. After digging around I found that Windows 2000 does not have an ASPNET user, it uses the IWAM user instead. Reporting services did not run at all till I changed the rs config file and put the IWAM user in as <WebServiceAccount>.
Does anyone have Reporting services 2005 running on Windows 2000 server? Anyone know how to fix the Web Service Identity error I am getting?
Hi, I'm wondering if I can use SQL 2005 Reporting Services with SQL Server 2000, SQL Express or MSDE, or I need to install SQL Server 2005 in order to use Reporting Services 2005? Thank you in advance.
I apologize for not doing the legwork to see if i can answer my own question, but I am close to a loosely planned SQL 2005 migration and don't have time and resources to test my own theories.
Is there a way for a Reporting Services 2000 server to connect to SQL server 2005 databases? I've tried creating a new data source and changing a report to this data source, but it seems like the report is still using the old data source. I'm guessing i might need to register new data providers on the 2000 RS server and then change the existsing data sources.
I'm migrating SQl Server Reporting Services from 2000 to 2005.The reports are generated normally in 2000 but it seems that it is taking more time in 2005 or sometimes it does not generate the report at all.Could you kindly suggest a solution?
I'm trying to install SQL Server 2005 on a server 2000 machine, everything is working with the exception of the Web Service Identity. It is putting machinenameASPNET, and I don't know where to go to make it use something else. I've look around but I have really seen any answers that have worked for me.
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 created an Image for the Database in sqlserver 2000. When I am querying directly the database as "Select * from employee", it is returning the result set.
But, when I am querying Database image with same query. It is giving error
Server: Msg 208, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 Invalid object name 'Employee'
It is expecting the Database Owner. If I do query like "Select * from [Owner].employee", it is working fine.
My requirement is not use owner in queries, it should be simple query ("Select * from employee").
Can any one, help me out. Thanks in advance. Bhupesh

Is there any way to pass a dataset parameter in RS 2000? Basicly, I have some data in my web page and want to print it. But I don't want to create another page to pass parameters to RS. I want to print the page as it is with the data already in the page, so if there is a way I can send the data through a dataset to the report directly, would be great. Is there?
I am little bit scared that if i upgrade reporting server db to 2005, My report won't work. I just wanna test with some reports in SQL 2005 reporting services.
1) what should i do( I have already installed Reporting services in 2005 (64-bit)? 2) Can i backup Report server db and Report Tempdb database and restore in SQL 2005 but these database already exists in SQL 2005.? 3) If i upgrade these database , Will it effect my 2000 Production Reports?
We would like to install Sql 2005 Enterprise Edition (including database engine, reporting service, integration service and analysis service) as a sepearte instance on a server which already has Sql 2000 with reporting services and analysis services. We do not want to disturb the existing sql 2000 setup.
If we do that then what will happen to my earlier sql 2000 reporting service? Will it be upgraded to sql 2005 reporting service? I heard that reporting services are instance unaware application. Where will be the default reporting service database available?
I'm in a trouble. So, I need to query some data in DB2 with Reporting Service. I don't know if there's a way to do it, without using DTS Package, because if I did it, I'd be replicating it, and it's not the case. 'Cause I just want to query the data in DB2 and not bring the data to SQL.
There's a provider that I can do it? Suppose I use a Linked Server, and add a Net-Library based on their Operational System, it would resolve? If not, what would be the best way of resolving this trouble??
I have installed SQL Server 2000 Reporting Services with the default names for the virtual directories , (ReportServer and Reports). Is there any way i can change the name of these directories by running a script or some thing.
Also is there a way to use the Cascaded Style Sheet used in my ASP.NET application for the reports.
We had someone leave work and he was responsible for the reports for our company. He used SQL 2000 w/ Reporting Services. The connection to the report server was tied to his userid and password. Since his account was disabled the website will not connect to the reporting database because it was tied to his account. Is there a way to reset the connection creditions? I looked on the server and I can't find the Reporting Services Admin Tool.
i would like to install Report Services on visual studio 1.1 version
using sql server 2000. i currently have sql server 2005 and visual
studio 2.0 and there is no problems and so i remember how that
works.

bypass download.

A customer of mine, running Reporting Services 2000, has a linked report situation. The report is landscaped and prints ok from the base report. If the same User tries to print the Linked version of same report it prints as Portrait. The user has Admin privileges. I am told another customer is having the same trouble.
I've been trying to use Analysis Services 2005 Cube as a data source, query it via MDX and then use the data returned elsewhere in SSIS.
However, I've been unable to get this working and can't find any information regarding how this can be done. Surely it should be possible when I can get this working even in Excel?
I've looked in December edition of BOL and no luck - have also sent a feedback to BOL regarding this and have been told that "it should be possible, since there is a way to send SQL queries to AS." However the person I was speaking with knew of no one who had actually tried this scenario and to try posting here.
Any help as to how to get this done would be greatly appreciated.
I am using Windows XP PRO and trying to Install SQL SERVER 2000 Reporting Services.
I have already installed SQL SERVER 2000 developer Edition, sql server service pack 3, VS.NET 2003 and .NET frame work 1.1.
I downloaded the SQL Server 2000 Reporting Services Evaluation Edition. I expected that there are both Server Component and Client Components which are available to install because evaluation edition support all features of Enterprise Edition. However I only saw the Client Components available during setup. Where can I find the Server Components to install? I appreciate very much if I can get advice from any of you.

Hi, When i try to send an email from SQL 2000 reporting services, i get error "The underlying connection was closed: Unable to connect to the remote server" .

Hi, This may be a trivial question but neither SQL Server 2000 Reporting Services SP1 or SP2 wil install against our SQL Server 2005 Developer edition installation.
Our Version: Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services Version 9.00.3027.00
Does anyone know whether the Services Packs are for SQL Server 2000 only? if so, whether the new functionality in SP2 will be made available to SQL Server 2005?
