SharePoint Add-in, Deploying ReportModel

Mar 29, 2007

Hello,

I have SharePoint set up with the reporting services add-in on one box and Reporting Services in Integrated mode on a separate box. I thought I had it set up correctly, but when I try to deploy a simple ReportModel to the report server from VS 2005, I get the error, "A connection could not be made to the report server http://localhost/ReportServer." I looked in the log files (C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.3Reporting ServicesLogFiles) and found the error shown below.

I know I must have missed something in either the installation or configuration, but when I look through the SharePoint Central Admin pages and the Reporting Services Configuration Manager everything seems fine.

Thanks,

Cynthia

Deploying Report Via Visual Studio To Sharepoint - Error

Sep 7, 2007

Hi guys

I seem to be having a bit of trouble deploying my reports from my Reporting Services Project in Visual Studio to my Sharpoint server.



Both the reporting server and sharepoint are installed on the same server.



The settings within my reporting server are as follows (where report is the site name):

TrargetDataSourceFolder - https://server/Report/Shared Documents/DataSources

TrargetReportFolder - https://server/Report/Shared Documents

TrargetServerURL - https://server/Report



I have not yet changed over all my reports to use fully qualified urls yet. As we have multiple domains in which the reports need to go through before they hit the production server and i haven't yet decided how i am going to handle the issues of the reports requiring fully qualified addresses (if someone has a way i would love to know).



I was getting the following error when i tried to deploy the projects but i delete all extensions from the blocked file types and that error went away. I can only guess that there was a file type it didn't like.

Error - "The file you are attempting to save or retrieve has been blocked from this Web site by the server administrators."



When i deleted all the file extensions i now get the following error.

Error - "File Not Found."



Just wondering if anyone has had any success with visual studio and sharepoint deployment or run into this problem.

Thanks

Anthony

Reporting Services :: Chart Not Displayed After Deploying SSRS Report In Sharepoint Server

May 22, 2015

I have created a ssrs report using ssrs-2012 that contains 2 tables 2 pie charts and 1 line chart. But I am unable to see 2 pie charts and and 1 line chart after deploying the rdl in sharepoint server.

Why I am not able to see those charts, or sharepoint server will not support charts at all.

Reportmodel Data Incorrect

Apr 27, 2007

Hi,



I have a very weird and frustrating problem at a customer. Since two months we are busy developing a report model, so users are able to create their own reports using the reportbuilder.



Suddenly the 1:n relations seem to be screwed! If I have a simple relation between entities, like a customer can have optional multiple invoices and a invoice has always one customer..

When in reportbuilder I select the customername, invoicenumber and #Invoices, then I expect there is only one invoice per invoicenumber. (When I select this in a query myself it is the truth...) But, the reportbuilder gives 2 as a result. This suddenly happens to all my 1:n roles.

It's not only in the #invoices fields, even when i select invoice amount this amount is being multiplied by 2.



I opened a backup of my project from one month ago, with the same relation in it and try to make the same report and it gave me the right results. But ofcourse I don't want to waste a month works, so I need to get this model working!



HELP!!!!



Thanks in advance

How To Define A Left Outer Join In Report Using ReportModel As DataSource

Aug 25, 2006



Dear ppl,

I got a Report Model Project, in which i have created a model of my Database and deployed it on the server...

Then I have a Report Server project for my reports. The reports are using Report Model as the DataSource...

Now in the Report Designer, inside a report, when I define query for Dataset using Report Model , I can't find a way to write a left Outer Join query... It always performs Inner Joins... was wondering ether Report model supports Outer Joins ?... I might achive this using two different datasets but then i'll end up using two data regions e.g. 2 tables, but i don't want to do that... instead I want all of my data to appear in a single table which can reference to single dataset.

Is there a way to define left outer joins using Report model ? I am new to this Reporting Servces and I might be missing something here... would any body please point out that

Reporting Services And Sharepoint Integration - Sharepoint Alternate Access Mappings (Zones)

Mar 2, 2007

I get the following error when I try to navigate to a report/model/data source, stored in a Sharepoint Document Library using a Sharepoint URL based on an Extranet or Intranet zone - but it works OK using the url for the Default zone:

System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException: The specified path refers to a SharePoint zone that is not supported. The default zone path must be used. ---> Microsoft.ReportingServices.Diagnostics.Utilities.SecurityZoneNotSupportedException: The specified path refers to a SharePoint zone that is not supported. The default zone path must be used.


Is this a limitation of the SQLRS-WSS3 integration or is there a workaround?

Many thanks to anyone who can help!

Sharepoint Integration Microsoft.ReportingServices.SharePoint.UI.WebParts.dll

Feb 2, 2007

Does anyone know the location of Microsoft.ReportingServices.SharePoint.UI.WebParts.dll after you install the web part? I am wondering if I can inherit from this web part to wrap some other functionality into it. I know that i see it in the GAC buyt can't seem to find it so I can look at the assembly using reflector.

Also, how easy is it to pass in parameters to the Report Viewer?

Thanks!

Problems With SharePoint Integration And Reporting On SharePoint With SSRS

Jan 17, 2008

Since I wasn't getting any replies with answers or suggestions to my initial posting, I figured I would continue to list the problems and solutions I've encountered while trying to setup and utilize SharePoint integration mode, and read data from SharePoint with SSRS reports (developed in VS2005). Hopefully this is helpful to anyone that is also trying to learn all this stuff and figure it out.

(Single server - W2K3R2_SP2 as: DC / SQL2005 Standard / MOSS2007 Enterprise - see the bottom of this posting for the steps I took to set that up)

Note: After I get this to work, I intend to post my experiences for setting up SharePoint Integration with SQL and SP on separate boxes.

1. In the new reporting section under SharePoint application management in the Central Admin Console, the Grant database AND Set Server Defaults work when using the domain admin account, but not when using the SQLSPS service account I used to setup both SQL and SharePoint. Why can't I use the service account? Is the domain admin account now going to be used as a service account for accessing the sharepoint database?


This question remains unanswered as of yet.

2. Reporting Services configuration tool shows Sharepoint integration as red x when I create a new database in integration mode. (the service account SQLSPS and the Server object are members of the group WSS_WPG). If I switch back to native mode (the original reportserver database), the red x goes to a blue exclamation instead. Using Service Credentials or Windows credentials (as either the service account SQLSPS or as domain admin) doesn't change anything.


RESOLVED by using a domain user account for the ReportServer WebApp. Even though everything is installed on the same machine, it seems using the default of NETWORK SERVICE wasn't acceptable. Possibly because SharePoint is configured to allow additional machines in the farm?

3. http://servername:8080/reportserver will display Report Server information as it did before the integration on port 80, but http://servername/reportserver doesn't display anything through SharePoint.


Resolved. I needed to define a repository before I could view it (go figure). When I created a sharepoint site based on a report center template, created a data connection library and report library, and then referenced that by http://servername/sites/myReportCenterSite/myReportLibrary, I was able to see the equivalent of http://servername/reports (which is now disabled due to integration mode).

4. Unable to deploy to new report center sharepoint site I mention above using Visual Studio. I kept getting "A connection could not be made to the report server http://servername/sites/ReportCenter. Server was unable to process request. The request failed with HTTP status 503: Service unavailable (System.Web.Services). In Visual Studio, the project properties were: TargetDataSourceFolder = http://servername/sites/myReportCenterSite/myDataConnectionLibrary, TargetReportFolder = http://servername/sites/myReportCenterSite/myReportLibrary, TargetServerURL = http://servername/sites/myReportCenterSite/


Found these errors in the event logs on the server.

Event Type: Warning
Event Source: W3SVC
Event ID: 1021
Description:
The identity of application pool, 'ReportServer' is invalid. If it remains invalid when the first request for the application pool is processed, the application pool will be disabled. The data field contains the error number.

Event Type: Warning
Event Source: W3SVC
Event ID: 1057
Description:
The identity of application pool 'ReportServer' is invalid, so the World Wide Web Publishing Service can not create a worker process to serve the application pool. Therefore, the application pool has been disabled.

Event Type: Error
Event Source: W3SVC
Event ID: 1059
Description:
A failure was encountered while launching the process serving application pool 'ReportServer'. The application pool has been disabled.

RESOLVED the issue by changing the Application Pool used by reporting services from ReportServer to DefaultAppPool and changing the account DefaultAppPool used from NETWORK SERVICE to my service account SQLSPS. I have no idea why ReportServer is invalid, it was set to use the service account SQLSPS the same as DefaultAppPool is. Perhaps the reporting services add-on makes a change to invalidate this?

5. Attempting to read a SharePoint list using a SSRS report. This should be fun.

First, created a new custom list in the ReportCenter SharePoint sites I've been using and called it myCustomList. I added one item with a title of myCustomListItem1. I don't know if I need to do more than that for a simple test of reporting or not yet.

Second, configured new shared data source. Name = myCustomList1DataSource, type=XML, Connection String = http://servername/_vti_bin/lists.asmx (this URL is viewable in IE), Using Windows authenticaion.

Third, in VS2005 on a workstation in the domain, create new report item (report1.rdl). New dataset for report; Name=Report1DataSet, Data Source=myCustomList1DataSource (Shared), Command type = text, Query String = [See Queries and associated errors below]:

Initial query obtained from: Connecting SQL Reporting Services to a SharePoint List (David Wise)
http://www.sharepointblogs.com/dwise/archive/2007/11/28/connecting-sql-reporting-services-to-a-sharepoint-list-redux.aspx

Note: Queries when executing the dataset (which errors out) and when executing a query in CAML Viewer for the same information (which does work just fine) both initially return 401.1 and 401.2 errors (as viewed in Fiddler). Since the CAML query works, I have not tracked this down yet.


A. Original format from posting



<Query>
<Method Namespace=http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/soap/ Name="GetListItems"/>
<SoapAction>
http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/soap/GetListItems
</SoapAction>
</Query>


Parameter; Name => listName, Value => =myCustomList

Was NOT prompted to define the query parameters


- Gets this error: "An error occurred while setting the command text property of the data extension command. The XmlDP query is invalid. (Microsoft.ReportingServices.DataExtensions)."


- Advanced information from the error => 'http' is an unexpected token. The expected token is '"' or '''. Line 2, position 19. (System.Xml)

B. Changed: Placed the namespace URL in quotes (also tried with and without / in namespace after /soap)

<Query>
<Method Namespace="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/soap/" Name="GetListItems"/>
<SoapAction>http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/soap/GetListItems
</SoapAction>
</Query>

Parameter; Name => listName, Value => =myCustomList (also tried Value => myCustomList) (no equal sign)

Clicked "!" to execute, and got prompted to define the query parameters
Entered Name => listName, Value => myCustomList

- Gets this error: "failed to execute web request for the specified URL (Microsoft.ReportingServices.DataExtensions)."

- Advanced information: <faultstring>Server did not recognize the value of HTTP Header SOAPAction: http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/soap/GetListItems/.</faultstring>


C. Try the query string that seems to work for Stramit CAML Viewer to read myCustomList

Stramit CAML query:
<Query xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/soap/">
<OrderBy>
<FieldRef Name="ID" />
</OrderBy>
</Query>

Also tried
<Query xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/soap/">
</Query>

And tried entering no query...

Parameter; Name => listName, Value => =myCustomList (also tried Value => myCustomList) (no equal sign)

Clicked "!" to execute, and got prompted to define the query parameters
Entered Name => listName, Value => myCustomList

- Gets this error: "failed to execute web request for the specified URL (Microsoft.ReportingServices.DataExtensions)."



- Advanced information: <soap:Fault><soap:Code><soap:Value>soap:Receiver</soap:Value></soap:Code><soap:Reason><soap:Text xml:lang="en">Server was unable to process request. ---&gt; Data at the root level is invalid. Line 1, position 1.</soap:Text></soap:Reason><soap: Detail /></soap:Fault>

RESOLVED. Went back to the query used in B above, and mysteriously it works now. This could be the "funny things happen" symptom I've been reading about. We'll see if it continues to function.

Here's what I've learned so far on Issue #5:

1. XML is confusing. XmlDP is even more confusing...whatever that is. Apparently it's new to/with Reporting Services in SharePoint integration mode?
2. There is far too little documentation regarding XmlDP and querying SharePoint lists from SQL Reporting Services.
3. According to http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms159741.aspx: You must use the generic query designer to create the query. The query is not analyzed to identify parameters; therefore you must create parameters through the Parameter tab on the Dataset dialog box.

Tried this query:

<Query>
<SoapAction>http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/soap/GetListItems</SoapAction>
<Method Namespace="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/soap/" Name="GetListItems" />
<Parameters>
<Parameter Name="listName">
<DefaultValue>myCustomReport2</DefaultValue>
</Parameter>
<OrderBy>
<FieldRef name="ows_Date" />
</OrderBy>
</Parameters>
</Query>
I was still prompted for the listName and the list returned with ows_Date still out of order. So maybe that proves this statement is true?
<translation: why make it convenient when it's already [somewhat] functional?>
4. When building the dataset, anything I place in the "Query string" box has to be enclosed in <query></query> tags or it errors out. I am trying to understand how to translate the CAML viewer query (which does work but isn't wrapped in query tags) into something that fits between query tags, and it hasn't gone well so far.
<translation: To be at one with your reports Grasshopper, you must understand xml>
5. According to http://srv1/sites/ReportCenter/_vti_bin/lists.asmx, "GetListItems" operation is supported
<translation: you're getting warmer...>
6. According to the soap output of my site http://srv1/sites/ReportCenter/_vti_bin/lists.asmx?op=GetListItems, I am only allowed to specify the following parameters: listName, viewName, query, viewFields, rowLimit, queryOptions and webID.
<translation: that and $3.00 will get you a cup of coffee>
7. According to http://www.sharepointblogs.com/dwise/archive/2007/11/28/connecting-sql-reporting-services-to-a-sharepoint-list-redux.aspx, only listName, viewName and rowLimit parameters are usable(?) (query and queryOptions may not be working properly with SSRS).
<translation: that kind of sucks>
8. When this started mysteriously working again, I tested using the "/" at the end of the namespace (wouldn't work without) and the "=" sign in front of the parameter value as defined on the parameter tab of the dataset (turns out to be optional).

As long as I can query SharePoint and get my list information back, I'm going to consider this issue closed and move on to actually using this information in a report. I'm sure that won't work right either, but why stop now?!

6. Ok, now that I can read SharePoint list data with SSRS, I need to try and actually do something with it.


A. Begin by setting up new data to report on


1. Create a new custom list (myCustomList2) and add a test record. This list will simulate the data we intend to submit to SharePoint using InfoPath, so it has a number of custom/created columns in it


2. Modify the working information from #5 above; add a new shared data source (myCustomList2DataSource), tell the dataset to use the new shared data source, change the information set in the parameter tab (Name => listName, Value => =myCustomList2) and test the dataset. Lucky me, it actually returned the record I entered on the first try.

B. Begin to build the report with the dataset returned

1. So, as I'm feeling good that it's actually reading the list in Step A without me threatening to destroy the machine, I look to the left in the Dataset results navigation pane in VS2005 and realize there are NO fields for me to choose to report on.
2. At this point, I have no clue what to do about getting this XML data into a report. Not that I have a large clue about SSRS otherwise, but I have at least been able to build SSRS reports when using a SQL database as the datasource. Fyi, http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms159741.aspx states: "Reports can use data from XML documents and Web services, or embed XML in the query. There is no built-in support for retrieving XML documents from a SQL Server database.", in case anyone is trying to do that....

RESOLVED. Since the fields were not appearing automatically, I had started to add new fields to the dataset manually (if it doesn't work, beat it with a hammer, right?). I entered half a dozen or so fields, each one with the exact name as displayed in the query results, and then decided it would be fun to hit the refresh fields icon. As soon as I did that, all the fields shown in the query immediately appeared in the dataset and I was able to add them to a report. I don't know if I hit the refresh fields when working in issue #5, so I can't say if they are there now because of that, or because of adding some fields manually first, a combination of the two, or if it's just one of those mystery items I'm reading about with sharepoint reporting.

7. Rows are being returned even though they have NULL values (so far anyway), and most data is returning nicely for the bulk of the columns I created in the list I'm reporting on. Here are the current issues:


A. I have one column in my SharePoint list that is multi-lined text. If the text type is either rich text or enhanced rich text, the value returned in the query is formatted like this: "<div class=ExternalClassyadayada<div>My notes display here". If I set the column to be plain text, this doesn't happen. I will need to figure out how to filter that for my report.


RESOLVED. David Wise had some code listed at http://www.sharepointblogs.com/dwise/archive/2007/11/28/connecting-sql-reporting-services-to-a-sharepoint-list-redux.aspx that addressed this issue somewhat. I modified it to match my circumstances. Disclaimer: I'm not a programmer, so use this at your own risk.


function ExtractMultiLineText(myField as string) as string
dim strBegin as string
dim strEnd as string
dim myBegin as integer
dim myEnd as integer
dim myTextLength as integer
strBegin = "<div>"
strEnd = "</div>"
if myField = nothing then return ""
if myField = "" then return ""
myBegin = Instr(myField, strBegin) + Len(strBegin)
myEnd = Instr(myField, strEnd)
myTextLength = myEnd - myBegin

if myBegin < 1 then return myField
return mid(myField, myBegin, myTextLength)
end function

B. I have two columns in the SharePoint list that are set as number values with 0 decimal places. When I query those however in SSRS, they return with the number plus like 12 zeroes behind the decimal. Not a major issue, but I'll put it on the list anyway.


RESOLVED. Used the Int() function; =Int(Fields!ows_myProblemNumber)

C. If I go to "/_vti_bin/lists.asmx?op=GetListItems", it appears from the sample soap output that I am allowed to ask GetListItems for is: listName, viewName, query, viewFields, rowLimit, queryOptions and webID. As I mentioned in issue #5, according to http://www.sharepointblogs.com/dwise/archive/2007/11/28/connecting-sql-reporting-services-to-a-sharepoint-list-redux.aspx, only listName, viewName and rowLimit parameters are usable(?) and query and queryOptions may not be working properly with SSRS.

So, if I can't put anything other than this in my query string;

<Query>
<Method Namespace="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/soap/" Name="GetListItems"/>
<SoapAction>http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/soap/GetListItems</SoapAction>
</Query>
and I only have a couple parameters to pass on top of that, then it appears to me that my options for filtering the amount of data returned from the SharePoint list is to figure out a way to do it with expressions in the parameters or in the report itself. Am I missing something? Is this really all I get to work with out-of-the-box?

Deploying The Whole Lot

Apr 26, 2007

Hi All,



I am adding a reporting suite to our application based upon SSRS 2005 and I am looking for a comprehensive example of how I go about deploying this.



Essentially I want to automate the entire process:



Create the DB, Create the Virtual Dirs, add my reports etc.



I have looked at the documentation and it is limited to say the least. I went down the route of attempting to script the whole thing and after 3 days of it I was still stuck on a few problems so I was hoping that someone knows of an example of how to go through all of these processes.



An example of the problems I ran into is that the "CreateVirtualDir" method on the reporting services WMI objects simply didn't work. It didn't return an error but it didn't create the Dir either!



The documentation around this method and most others is ambiguous and contains no examples.



I then went down the route of using IIS WMI to create the dirs which worked but then I was unable to update the Reporting Services configuration to pick this up without resorting to changing the config files directly - and even when I did this they didn't always seem to be picked up.



So at present instead of giving our guys in deployment a 1 click install they have a 9 page document explaining the install and set up of Reporting services from start to finish.



Any help or more thorough documentation would be greatly appreciated.



thanks,



Dhugal.



PS: Just to add I have already altered our install to install the RS module along with SQL Server so that bit is covered. I just want to script the entire configuration process.

Deploying MSDE - What Do I Need To Do

Apr 9, 2004

We're about to ship a product, and we've used access to develop it to make things easier, but we want to use MSDE.

I've never had any luck with MSDE -

1. I can import the database into a sql server database in enterprise manager, is there a way to import a database into a msde database in interprise manager?

2. what would I do in the installer? I need to install the msde engine right? and then run sql scripts on the engine?

Thanks in advance!

Deploying Databases

Dec 19, 2000

I am looking for an effective technique for this scenario:
We have a program that generates 200 custom Paradox databases every night, and these are shipped to 200 sales offices (on Win98 machines). We would like to convert from Paradox to MSDE (baby SQL).
The data is relatively large (some offices > 100 MB) so efficiency is important, both for data generation, data transmission and/or data loading. Currently we zip files so the large 100MB ones are <20MB during transmission.
Is it best to: 1) output flat files, zip them, transmit, and then have an automatic load procedure (using bcp) on the Win98 clients; or 2) create the MSDE databases locally, zip them, transmit, and then db_attach the database file on the Win98?
Has anyone a successful experience doing this sort of thing?

Deploying SQL Server On To A CD

Sep 2, 2005

Hi Well this is my first post on this forum, in fact I have not even used SQL Server yet!

My question is.... I have been asked to produce an application which will be a VB6 application with an SQL Server database behind it. I would like to be able to put the application along with the database on to a CD and run them directly from the CD once it is distributed. So the question I guess is can this be done with SQL Server i.e. can a table be exported in a format which will allow it to be queried in a standalone fashion? Maybe I have not explained myself properly but I welcome any questions which will help clarify my problem.

Thanks Red

May 19, 2007

I'm having a little bit of trouble deploying the report project I have set up. In fact, I'm not even sure that deploying the project is what I want to do. All I want is to have something so I can view the report I've created in HTML or PDF form, something that was advertised when I downloaded the reporting services. Any help with what I would need with this would be appreciated.

Deploying To Subfolders From VS

Jun 29, 2006

I've got a report project with a few reports in I want in the root target directory. I also want to create several folders and put reports in those. The problem is I don't see any way to create a report folder in VS. I also don't see any way to pick the deployment path of a single reprot in VS. This makes me think I'll have to create a different Report Project in VS for each folder!! (this sucks). Does anyone have an idea or suggestion here?

Deploying Pdfs

Jan 30, 2008

Newbie question for which I ask your patience:

I had set my ProjectpropertiesTarget Server URL some time ago and now need to deploy additional files in specific folders and cannot remember how to map a url back to a file location. I have searched for the deployed files on target server and have not found them.

Can someone explain how SSRS deploys; does it physically place files on the target server (.pdfs)? Suggest how I can map the URL back to a directory location on some server?

thanks, MDM

Deploying Sub Reports

Jul 3, 2007

Just wondering what people do when they deploy sub reports and what is the 'best practise' for this. I'm just deploying them to the same folder as the main report and hiding them.



This is, to say the least, messy. As a user has to click 'Show Details' and they can see the sub report.



Is there a better way?



Thanks

Trouble Deploying Sql Database

Aug 21, 2006

I used VWD 2005 Express to create my web application (that uses a sql 2005 database), and now I'm trying to deploy it.  I was to understand that all I had to do was to upload all my files to the root folder and the web host's server (webhost4life.com).  However, they require me to upload the sql 2005 db to a seperate sql server using a control panel that is very clunky.  Does anyone know how to upload the sql 2005 db to the host server or an online tutorial where I could go to learn?  Thanks for the help!

Deploying The Personal Web Site

May 15, 2007

Rank newbie to ASP.NET here, so I'm totally "at sea" as to finding a "cookbook" for "how to deploy" a slightly customized version of the "Personal Web Site" project.
My hosting service has an ASP.NET database installed. I can verify from their "SQL Server Web Admin" package that there are 11 "aspnet_" table names present. I have run the "personal-add.sql" script which has defined two (empty) tables -- "Albums" and "Photos".
CONFUSION 1: The hosting service includes a Help fille for "Connecting to a SQL Server Database Using ASP.NET 2.0" which details the way to add 'connectionStrings' for "Personal" and "LocalSqlServer". I have made a "remote" copy of the "web.config" file and supplied the ostensively correct info for my Server, Database, User ID and Password. QUESTION: Why are there TWO names -- "Personal" and "LocalSqlServer"? Since all of the tables are contained now within the ASP.NET database are the details for both of these to be the same?
CONFUSION 2: Error handling. I'm getting "An application error occurred on the server. The current custom error settings for this application prevent the details of the application error from being viewed remotely (for security reasons). It could, however, be viewed by browsers running on the local server machine." Huh!? That page then goes on to mention "<customErrors mode="RemoteOnly" defaultRedirect="mycustompage.htm"/>". I've not a clue as to what "mycustompage.htm" should contain in order to field the error[s] erupting.
POINTERS, anyone? Have I missed some basic part of the manual[s] someplace? I was sort of hoping that there would be a simple "cookbook" around someplace for how to "deploy" a relatively tested group of pages (application) in a relatively idiot-proof manner. I'm not finding it, so ANY pointers, hints, URLs will be greatly appreciated.

SQL Server ---- Deploying A WebSite

Jun 25, 2007

Since from using my local host to view my website, I am assuming I already have SQL Server installed on my computer? Is it possible to have users access my website files directly onto there own computer, say if they type my ip address or domain name into their address bar?  What I am actually wanting to do is to host my website from my home computer... Any ideas, or good slash easy to understand articles on how to do this?

Deploying Web App, Which SQL Files Do I Upload?..

Nov 24, 2004

I'm working on a web application that uses SQL Server 2000. Once I'm ready to upload my website to a production server, I need to know how to upload my SQL Server database files to the server. Are there actual files that can be uploaded? I've only deployed a website that works with MySQL to a production server, and there were no files to upload... the database had to be created on the server, and then the data itself had to be exported to text files (on my computer), then imported/uploaded to the production server using SQL statements...

How do I do this?

Thanks~

Deploying Performance Changes To Production?

Oct 14, 2014

Was wondering, when performance changes have been made to existing code and deployed to a production environment, should anything be done regarding clearing old cache?

Is there a risk of the new code picking up cold or wrong cached query plans etc?

I know you can't clear the cache for the full system as it will affect everything else. But are the ways to target the changes? I.E run the new code with an OPTION (RECOMPILE) few times to build up new clean plans for it to use?

Or will the update stats see it is using bad plans and then start creating new clean ones over time?
