I am new to SQL Reporting services and learning from website tutorials. I could easily connect to Adventure Works database and could create some reports. Now I want to create one report from Oracle database in my network on one of my server (Network computer). I could not connect to database as do not know what to write (is path like Server name or IP address 152.168.1.25 Oracle database name) is required in Server name field? Server Type should be OLE DB or Oracle and OLEDB Provider should be Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle? Then Server of filename?
Is there any tutorial or material available, which can help me in establishing this connectivity? Any help is greatly appreciated.Do I have to install any thing on my local computer for oracle ( as read in one of forum for Oracle Client or something like that)
created an Oracle datasource (tried both ole db & oracle client) in Visual Studio 2005 report project - works fine connecting and preview of report within ide , deployed to Reporting Services web server, received the following error when attempting to run the report on web server:
An error has occurred during report processing. (rsProcessingAborted) Cannot create a connection to data source 'oracle'. (rsErrorOpeningConnection) System.Data.OracleClient requires Oracle client software version 8.1.7 or greater.
web server has oracle client 9i client installed and connecting to db ok through sql plus (this server also is loaded with VS2005 and the SqlServer2005 db)
Everything I have read says that this is possible in Oracle 9 and greater versions, but I can't get it to work...
Here is my query:
select * from employee where employee_id in ('111','222')
This works fine in the data tab until I replace the values with a parameter. I get the pop-up to enter the parameter values but no matter how I enter them, I don't get any rows returned. I've tried entering them as '111','222' and as 111,222 and changing the parameter type from a string to an int, but nothing seems to work.
I am running this on SQL Server RS 2005 and my Oracle driver (Oracle in OraHome92) is version 9.02.
I used the Microsoft OLEDB provider for oracle from the dropdown,
The username and password I have also. I tried to enter in the Xtx20xxx as the server name, clicked "Properties"
put in the username and password I can given and clicked "Test Connection". No matter what I get the infamous ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve service name error message. I am sure I am missing something obvious here but I have absolutely no clue and all the googling in the world has not given me any help. I do have the Oracle 10g client tools installed on this workstation (running Windows XP Prof SP2 and SQL 2005 STD).
I have been reading some topics on "slow Oracle connections", but I have not found an answer for my question yet.
The problem is that I am extracting data from a Oracle database to Raw files (to import into our DWH later on). For one table this takes more that 1 hour! I find this to be very slow, but maybe I am expecting too much speed?
Can anyone tell me how long it should take to download 10 million rows from Oracle to Raw file (no transformations)?
Some extra information: - The table has 10 million rows and a little over 200 columns - The datatypes in the Oracle database are varchar, number and date - I tried to tune the buffer size in the data flow and found that I could fit about 1900 rows in a DefaultBuffersize of 100 MB - I use the "Native OLE DBMicrosoft OLE OB Provider for Oracle" (Provider=MSDAORA.1)
Can I do anything to get a better performance or is 1 hour for a table like this the best performance we can get?
(Changing the Oracle database is unfortunately not an option...)
I have to develop a package to get some data from a 10g Oracle database and load it to a SQL Server 2005 database.
In my design I used Oracle Provider for OledDB as my source provider following Microsoft recommendations found here : http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb332055.aspx
As I have to use a parametrized query against my Oracle database I create a variable with my query that I override at runtime with a script task to update the parameters values.
One of the return column is of numeric datatype.
To handle this known issue with Oracle sources I edited through the advanced editor my Oledb source component to manually correct the precision.
Everything works fine with one of my package.
So I repeat the whole process while designing an other one with the same purposes.
As for the previous one I first unit test every components and everything works. But when running the full package it raised an error code 0x80004005 Error while validating post executing phase of the component (sorry for the poor translation from french to english ...)
I open my dataflow where the component is and found no warnings or errors. I edited through the advanced editor my Oledb source component and found that there's an error on the precision scale of the numeric return column. The message warn me that the precision must be between 1 and 38. I checked this column and in the "OLE DB Source output / External Columns" the precision is 0 though I previously manually corrected it. I upadted again for a 18 precision as it is for this column in "OLE DB Source output / Output Columns". But it never keeps my changes ......
I delete the component and recreate it to force the metadata to be updated but always the same thing, the precision scale for this column in the "OLE DB Source output / External Columns" never keeps my 18 value.
am doing proof-of-concept for reporting services reports getting data via web services.
got it working for simple examples (passing back strings etc) also woking passing back an object but cant get it working with a dataset - am having trouble filtering out the XML resultset
this is my webmethod [WebMethod] public DataSet DSetExample() { DataSet ds = new DataSet("XMLTest"); DataTable dt = new DataTable(); DataColumn dc; dc = new DataColumn("IntegerColumn1", System.Type.GetType("System.Int32")); dt.Columns.Add(dc); dc = new DataColumn("StringColumn1", System.Type.GetType("System.String")); dt.Columns.Add(dc); dc = new DataColumn("DecimalColumn1", System.Type.GetType("System.Decimal")); dt.Columns.Add(dc); dc = new DataColumn("DateTimeColumn1", System.Type.GetType("System.DateTime")); dt.Columns.Add(dc); DataRow drow = dt.NewRow(); drow["IntegerColumn1"] = 1; drow["StringColumn1"] = "WTF"; drow["DecimalColumn1"] = 205.299; drow["DateTimeColumn1"] = DateTime.Parse("22/May/1966"); dt.Rows.Add(drow); ds.Tables.Add(dt); return ds; }
this is my basic query <Query> <ElementPath IgnoreNamespaces="true">* </ElementPath> <Method Name="DSetExample" Namespace="http://localhost/testservice1"> </Method> </Query>
this just gives me the first node details
but when ever i try and specify the elements i want by using the ElementPath nothing comes back....
just need to know how to specfiy the ELEMENTPATH to return the dataset details...
I was wondering if it's possible to use a sharepoint list as datasource in reporting services ? If yes, what's your trick ? Is it possible to use a directory as datasource in reporting services ?
I am new to both Reporting Services and Webservices implementation so I am just trying to use a simple example. I found a Webservice on the internet that returns movie information:
I'm just starting to use SQL Server 2005 Reporting services, and need to use an XMLdocument as the datasource. I will get the xml data from a webservice and then need to bind it to the report. Here is what I am doing:
1. I created a webservice at the following location: http://localhost/myWebDirectory/myService.asmx. this webservice has a method called "GetXMLDocument" that has 1 parameter (sql). This method uses the sql statement to fill a dataset from a SQL Server database, converts it to an xmlDocument, and returns the xmlDocument. Here is a sample of the results:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> - <NewDataSet> - <Table> <ReportName>GirlsNamedMary</ReportName> <ReportFriendlyName>All Girls Named Mary</ReportFriendlyName> <ReportDescription>This is a test SQL Server Reporting Services report. It has no parameters.</ReportDescription> </Table> </NewDataSet>
2. I created a datasource in my reports project as follows: - Name: TestDataSource - Type: XML - Connection string: http://localhost/myWebDirectory/myService.asmx
3. I created the following dataset: - Name: TestDataSet - Data source: TestDataSource - Query string: <Query xmlns="http://tempuri.org/Service/GetXMLDocument"> <Method Namespace="http://tempuri.org/Service" Name="GetXMLDocument"/> <ElementPath /> </Query>
I am getting this error: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ An error occurred while executing the query. Failed to execute web request for the specified URL.
Additional Information: ----> Failed to execute web request for the specified URL. (Microsoft.ReportingServices.DataExtensions). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I cannot figure out why I have this error. The service runs fine from the browser, but I just can't get it to work in Reporting Services. What am I doing wrong?
I've created a SSIS package with a DataReaderDestination and a SSRS report that points to it.
I referenced these links during development and I have everything working as expected locally. **I changed the config files as stated on both my local machine and our server. My config matches the example exactly.
When I attempt to deploy my report project to the server I get this error message: "An attempt has been made to use a data extension 'SSIS' that is not registered for this report server."
In the report manager data source properties page it reads: "The data processing extension used for this report is not available. It has either been uninstalled, or it is not configured correctly."
In SQL Server Management Studio data source properties page SSIS is not a data source type option.
I've tried restarting both the Reporting Services and Integration Services on the server to no avail.
Any suggests? My problem is I can't get the SSIS to be recognized source on the server.
Data Source of the report is AS/400 and I need to create a report in visual studio 2013 with ODBC Connection type and deploy report onto share point 2013. How to create report, data source and deploy on share point.
My problem is how we will create ODBC connection with AS/400 and connect report with AS/400.
A customer use SCSM 2012 RTM and recently they changed the password of the account that connects with the datasources that use Service Manager to generate reports. There are several datasources namely DWStagingAndConfig, ConfigurationManager, DWDataMart and other ones.The process to change the password of the account, done via web in the SSRS URL instance of Service Manager, requires to enter in the Manage option of each DataSource and replace the password with the right one in the Properties section; is a really simple step. However, after the change, the only Datasource that not allows to access again to the Manage option is DWStagingAndConfig (appears a message that points out to a report server internal error);I append a extract of the SSRS log related to the problem with this Datasource.

When creating a report using reporting Services with a cube as a datasource, visual studio 2005 hangs. I have applied SP1 to visual studio.net 2005 .
This is the query generated by query designer in reporting services. When I try to drag and drop another dimension to slice it by , visual studio hangs.
The fact table has just 10,000 records. Are the number of dimensions used to slice the cube too many? How do I optimize this query?

Hello, I'm having some problems and I wonder if anyone can help me. I need to call a stored procedure to retrieve some data from the bank and use it in a report. I'm using oracle DB, but I'm not using ODBC, I'm using Oracle. I can call the SP using 2 commands: 1- in the dataset data form, I can select the command type as Stored Procedure and write the name of my procedure without the arguments, and then the VS ask for the arguments 2- in the same form, the command type as TEXT, i can use the syntax: call <SP name>(arguments)
My problems are: -in the first way, how can I programatically set the arguments to send? -in both of them, how can I define that the data that should be stored in the dataset is in the out cursor parameter?
I am trying to call oracle stored procedure from SRSS 2005. I am using the syntax { Call s_test_rcur()} . I am getting following error.An error occurred while retrieving the parameters in the query.ORA-00911: invalid characterORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_UTILITY", line 68ORA-06512: at line 1

Hi, I'm new to SSRS but have a problem connecting to Oracle. I have placed my reports upon a reporting server but the shared data connection isn't working and I'm confused as to why. I have specified the name, connection type as "Oracle", set the correct user id and password for the credentials and the connection string as for example 'Data Source=oracleExample;Unicode="True"'. I also have set the correct entry in the tnsnames.ora file for this datasource, example: "oracleExample = (DESCRIPTION = (ADDRESS_LIST = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 12.23.45.23)(PORT = 3425)) ) (CONNECT_DATA = (SID = oracle) ) )" Unfortunately I receive the following error when trying to connect. "
An error has occurred during report processing.
Cannot create a connection to data source 'oracleDataSource'.
For more information about this error navigate to the report server on the local server machine, or enable remote errors
"
I'm mystified as to what the issue is. Any ideas? Would restarting the report server pick up the tnsnames.ora file? I have this working locally using report designer. Any help, much appreciated.
Anybody have a clear idea why I might have problems connecting from reporting services to Oracle 9i database using the Microsoft ODBC driver? Getting following error "Cannot create a connection to data source 'oracleName'.
ERROR [IM002] [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified
"
I have the data source correctly set-up thought. Is it a permissions problem?
I am a beginner with Report Designer (and with Reporting Services). Following the tutorials 'Adding parameters to filter Reports ...' I tried using the @symbol to add a parameter to my query: where code = @code_value...I get the error: ORA -000936 missing expression (msorlib) Is there another syntax that I should use to define a parameter/variable in query for my oracle dataset?
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 have an issue using parameterised reports connecting to Oracle using "ODBC" and "Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle" using parameteried reports. The following error is generated "ORA-01008 not all variables bound (Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle)" and a similiar one for ODBC. It works fine for simple reports. Do these 2 drivers have issues passing parameters for a remote Oracle query? Thanks.
Exception from HRESULT: 0xC0204018 (Microsoft.SqlServer.DTSPipelineWrap)
------------------------------ BUTTONS:
OK ------------------------------ For most of my queries to Oracle I can cast the columns to get rid of the error (CAST x AS DECIMAL(10) etc), but this does not work for:
1) Union
I have a select like "SELECT NVL(myColumn, 0) .... FROM myTable UNION SELECT 0 AS myColumn, .... FROM DUAL"
Even if I cast the columns in both selects (SELECT CAST(NVL(myColumn, 0) AS DECIMAL(10, 0) .... UNION SELECT CAST(0 AS DECIMAL(10, 0)) AS myColumn, .... FROM DUAL) I still get the error above.
2) SQL command from variable
The select basically looks like this:
"SELECT Column1, Column2, ... FROM myTable WHERE Updated BETWEEN User::LastLoad AND User::CurrentLoad"
Again, even if I cast all columns (like in the union), I still get the same error.
we recently got a scenario that we need to get the data from oracle tables which is installed on third party servers. we have sqlserver installed on ourservers. so they have created a DBLINK in oracle server to our sqlserver and published the DBLINK name.
what are the next steps that i need to follow on my sqlserver in order to access the oracle tables ?
On my dev server I have working ssis packages that use connections Microsoft OLEDB provider for Oracle MSDAORA.1 and Oracle provider for oledb and OracleClient data provider.
I use one or the other according to my needs.
In anticipation and to prepare for the build of a new production server, I have build a test server from scratch and deployed to it the entire dev.
Almost everything works except Microsoft OLEDB provider for Oracle.
ssis packages on the test machine will return an error

I've been searching for a solution for this for a week-ish, so I thought I would post my quesiton directly. Here is my scenario..
Source: MS SQL Server
Destination: Oracle 10g
The destination table has a partition set on a column called "DATE_HIGH". How do I populate this date high column in my package? Currently I just have a source object, and a destination object, but I'm unclear how to populate this field in the destination. I've read one blog that states "use OLE DB Command" - but that isn't enough information for me to implement - Can someone be more specific in these steps? Here is an example of what my newb-ness needs to understand
OLE DB Source (Select * from Table) ---> OLE DB Command (What query goes here?) --> OLE DB Destination.
Second part of my question: There is a second column called "ROW_NUM" and there is an Oracle Sequence provided to me... What objects do I need (Source, Destination, OLE DB Command etc...) and how do I call this sequence to populate on the fly as I'm loading data from my source?
If these are simple questions - my appologies, I am new to the product.
I have designed a DTS package which will migrate a view from Sqlserver 2000 to Oracle.My package is using Microsoft OLEDB provider for Oracle driver for connecting to oracle.Im able to execute this package on the my system ie on the system where sqlclient is installed(Oracle client is also installed on my machine) .But when im doing it on the server im not able to do it.The Connection to Oracle Fails. I wanted to know in order to connect to Oracle from the server,is it necessary that Oracle has to be installed on the server?.If yes, is it enough if i install oracle client on the server or Oracle Server version has to be installed on Server.
