Sharepoint Needed For ReportServer?

May 9, 2007

Dears,

I have XP Professional and my IIS is installed and works fine because i can browse to http://localhost.

But when I go to http://localhost/ReportServer, I get the error below:

"Server Application Unavailable" The web application you are attempting to access on this web server is currently unavailable. Please hit the "Refresh" button in your web browser to retry your request. Administrator Note: An error message detailing the cause of this specific request failure can be found in the application event log of the web server. Please review this log entry to discover what caused this error to occur."I've struggled almost a day with it, researched on the internet and so on.... Is it possible that this is because I don't have Sharepoint Services installed????

And SharePoint services is not standard in Windows XP Professional????
So I can not use the ReportServer????

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!

Erik

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?

How Can I Rename My ReportServer Databases?

Oct 12, 2007

Hi,

I am trying to move my Reporting Services databases from one server to another one. On the old server there was only a single instance so my databases were named ReportServer & ReportServerTempDB. On my new server I have multiple instances and, after installation (which I didn't perform), the databases on the new server are ReportServer$SQL_VS11 & ReportServer$SQL_VS11TempDB.

I was able to successfully restore both databases and rename them at the time of restore and also restore my encryption key but now when I try to view one of the reports I'm given the error:







Invalid object name 'ReportServerTempDB.dbo.PersistedStream'.


















I found this article:

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms159093.aspx

It states that "This error occurs because the ReportServerTempdb name is stored internally and used by stored procedures to perform internal operations. Renaming the temporary database will prevent the stored procedures from working properly."

This leads me to believe that what I'm attempting to do is not possible. I asked the developer in charge of the reports if we could simply republish but he informed me that we would lose history in this case. I may have to simply leave the old database names alone which would be inconsistent with our corporate naming schemes. Can anyone offer a suggestion?

Thanks,
Pat Brickson

ReportServer DB And ReportServerTempDB Databases

Feb 9, 2007

Hi all,

Is it possible to cleanup ReportServer DB and ReportServerTempDB by setting the time interval ? For example, I want data in these two dbs to be deleted automatically after 5 or 10 minutes. How can I do that because as new reports are added and executed data goes on increasing in very short time and hurts performance.

Thanks,

Prashant

ReportServer Database Replication?

Feb 14, 2008

I'm working on an application for a client. The application is distributed to 100 mobile (SQLExpress SP2 w/ Advanced Services) users via the web, and uses merge replication to sync data back to corporate with Web Synchronization.

All of this works great. No problems at all.

The client now wishes to use the Reporting Services component of SQL to deploy reports, rather than building them into the application with Crystal Reports. The rationale is it will require less work (probably true to some degree) and it will make updates easier since each time they add a report, it will not require regenerating an entire binary image of the application for users to download.

Naturally, the client asks me if there is a way to use the same replication technology to simply build the reports in-house against an internal ReportServer database, and then replicate the contents of that database down to those 100 clients with the same merge replication -- except, making it a "one way" subscription, with no updates sent back to the server.

I'm wondering if anyone has attempted to do something along these lines.. Is it possible to use SQL Server replication technology to replicate the Reporting Services database down to mobile clients?

Or... is there some other mechanism I should be investigating that will allow me to deploy and update roughly 200 reports to 100 mobile clients on a regular basis?

Thoughts from other users would be appreciated.

I've tried using replication for the past few days, but have had no success. I have created a publication and subscription, have managed to pull the data down and build the local database, but when I do so, Reporting Services immediately breaks. I've even attempted to limit the data I pull down to simply the Catalog, Datasource, and Chunk tables (eliminating what appears to be the other tables that contain site-specific configuration data), with no success.

If anyone has tried something similar, or has managed a similar application, feedback would be appreciated.

Index Tuning : ReportServer DB

Nov 1, 2007

Hi All!

I would like to try and increase the performance of the reportserver database. Im thinking of adding an index to dbo.catalog.itemID - before I break the database and subsequently kill the 200+ reports i spent ages writing, does anyone know of any problems doing this?

The reports seem to be a bit slow first run but speed up during the course of the day - the server generates about 1500 instances of reports each day (7 instances of reportmanager all pointing to the reportserver db). I primarily use precompiled storedprocedures to feed the datasets so this is why im thinking index tuning may help.

Any thoughts/comments are welcomed!

Moving ReportServer Databases

Apr 17, 2007

Followed the steps in Books Online to move the Reporting Services databases from one server to another. After resetting all the keys and configurations, the site comes up. However, all my shared datasources have lost their connection strings, and have reverted to requesting login information. Is this how it is supposed to work? If not, how do I fix this easily (as I have about 25 data sources)?

Reconstructing RDL From The ReportServer Database

Apr 5, 2007

In my shop we hired a contractor who build our SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services reports on his laptop. After a tiff between him and our manager, he left with the laptop and we no longer have the source code for these reports. We have backups, but not the latest.



These reports ARE deployed to our production server, but I need to know if it's possible to reconstruct the RDL for the reports from the database contents. I understand that the report contents are encrypted and I'm guessing the RDL is in the Catalog.Content column.



Is there a way to recover the RDL for deployed reports or do we have to resort to the legal system?

I am using the syntax http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:1433/reportserver where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx denotes the ip adress and the 1433 denotes the port




Reportserver is on a windows 2003 small business server. I added exceptions to my firewalll and checked all permissions to the physical directories. I am sure it is a simple issue but cannot figure it out.

IIS 6 MMC Problem With ReportServer And ASP.NET Configuration

Feb 14, 2006

Hello,

I had a working Report server till I did the following:

- Go to IIS 6 MMC

- Display Reportserver vs properties

- click on the ASP.NET tab (2.0 50727)

- click on the "Edit Configuration" button

- Look at the config, do not change nothing

- Click OK

This has kill the Report server, it is now giving an error:



An internal error occurred on the report server. See the error log for more details. (rsInternalError) Get Online Help

Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

Just to see, I did the exact same thing on another test machine and it did screw up the report server as well.

Any idea on how I can fix, this? I tried to repair ASP.net 2 and uninstall reinstall IIS6 as well as deleting and recreating the reports and reportserver vs.

Thanks

WSS-based ReportServer URL Parameters

Mar 5, 2007

Hi all,

I'm trying to pass parameters in a URL to a report deployed to a report server that has been migrated to WSS using SP2.I can call the report itself with no problems but am having trouble duplicating the ability to pass URL parameter values in a similar fashion to an unmigrated reportserver. I am sure I'm just missing a few differently placed question marks or ampersands. So far I haven't found any doco which gives me the specific format & rules for URL parameter passing and how it may have changed.

This URL will run the report:
http://bi-vpc/Reports/ReportsLibrary/MyReport.rdl

I just need to figure out how to pass in values for the two parameters: Date and Country.

Any and all help/suggestions much appreciated.

Cheers,
Nick

ReportServer And ReportManager Security

Jan 29, 2008



How do you prevent others from viewing the ReportServer and ReportManager in a browser? I know you can assign roles to individuals but as far as I know of that is only referring to the actual report. But I would like to have just certain individuals be able to view the ReportServer and ReportManager in a browser. Also does creating these security limitations affect being able to link and display a report in a pdf format?

Any information is helpful.

Thanks!

ReportServer Folders And Deployment

Oct 28, 2007

I am making changes to a report and believe I am correctly deploying it to an ssrs report folder per the messages I get back from vs.net.

Question is, how can I see what folders are available? and where? At some point I knew or was able to do this, and think it was through SQL server since I can't see them through IIS and they don't appear to be real file system folders.

Also, I'm trying to figure out why parameter default value changes i make don't seem to deploy or overwrite??, while cosmetic (color for example) changes do when I deploy. I am selecting the option overwritedatasource in the project.

If I navigate to the reportserver I see the folder in question.

Ntext Fields In ReportServer Db

Apr 4, 2008



I haven't had to deal with ntext fields before, I'm finding that they are a ton of fun


Can someone tell me what the impact would be of changing all of the ntext column in ReportServer, ReportServerTempDB, and RSExecutionLogs to varchar(MAX)?

I can only guess that ntext was left in for backwards compatibility with sql2k?

Thanks for any thoughts, direction!
