Unable To Deploy Reports From VStudio When Working In SharePoint Integration Mode
Mar 4, 2007
Hello, I have a configuration where my SharePoint services are running on a web machine and the SQL server reporting services are running on a different machine.
I installed SQL SP2 and the SQL Server Reporting Services Add-in for SharePoint by following all the instructions listed in €śConfiguring Reporting Services for SharePoint 3.0 Integration€? (http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb326356.aspx).
My issue is that when I Deploy a report from a VS Report Server project by running Visual Studio on the machine where reporting servicers is running, everything works fine.
But if I try the same thing on any other machine on the network, I get a €śThe file you are attempting to save or retrieve has been blocked from this Web site by the server administrators.€? message.
I€™m sure I€™m missing something on the configuration but I can€™t tell what.
Thanks a lot

Hi,
I'm working with the Dec CTP of SQL 2005 SP2 and the associated Sharepoint addin.
I've been able to get a report created in VS2005 and manually uploaded to the Document Library holding reports, and the report works when I open it (using an internal datasource, not shared).
My first problem is I can't get VS2005 to deploy datasources or reports to my doc library.
I have configured
TargetDataSourceFolder http://server/site/doclib
TargetReportFolder http://server/site/doclib
TargetServerURL http://server/
When I try to deploy my Shared Data Source, it asks me to login, and will not accept my credentials (I am farm administrator, and site collection administrator, and local administrator, and a site owner)
Secondly, for the report I manually uploaded, I can't edit it in Report Builder (from Sharepoint) because I get stuck on entering something that works into the Select Site or Server dialog box. I've tried http://server/ and http://server/site/ and http://server/site/doclib
Can I have some tips please?
Thanks
Martin

Hi
Having finally managed to get over the hump of getting Sharepoint integrated mode working in a farm install, I am having a problem deploying reports from Visual Studio to Sharepoint.
I have set the deploy properties as follows:
TargetDataSourceFolder: http://ppdwn-bl10:8888/ReportTest/Data Sources
TargetReportFolder: http://ppdwn-bl10:8888/ReportTest/Harvest Reports
TargetServerURL: http://ppdwn-bl10:8888/
Visual Studio is updated to Service Pack 2, as is of course the report server.
The reports APPEAR to deploy - they actually appear in the document library after deployment! But the result is:
------ Build started: Project: Harvest Reports, Configuration: Debug ------
Build complete -- 0 errors, 0 warnings
------ Deploy started: Project: Harvest Reports, Configuration: Debug ------

The Report Server log shows the following:

I'm setting the Hidden property to True and then creating the report using the CreateReport method from the ReportingService2006 class. When I check the reportserver database Hidden is set to true. But when I call the GetProperties method it shows Hidden as being false. And in the document library the reports are visable.
I tried calling the SetProperties method after I created the report but it still didn't work.
Here's how I create the report.
Dim props(0) As ReportServer.Property
Dim SetProp As New ReportServer.Property
SetProp.Name = "Hidden"
SetProp.Value = "True"
props(0) = SetProp
rs.CreateReport(Path.GetFileName(fileName), Folder, True, bytes, props, warnings)
Any idea?
Thanks,

Hi Everyone,
Our project has two servers. One server is running WSS 3.0 and the SQL Reporting Services web front-end. We have a second server that operates all the databases involved (WSS Content, SRS, and our application specific DB).
We do not have a domain controller in our architecture. The WSS site is configured to use SQL authentication to connnect and modify the WSS Content database. We installed SRS, SRS service pack 2, and the Sharepoint add-in. We are using forms authentication for our WSS site. We would like to use SRS in Sharepoint Integration mode, but we are unable to create datasources, view reports, etc. SRS is configured to use the "Trusted Account" in WSS Central Admin.
When we attempt to create a new datasource, and we received an error stating the object moved and to check that SRS is in Sharepoint integration mode.
When we attempt to view a report, we get an error stating:
"An unexpected error occurred while connecting to the report server. Verify that the report server is available and configured for SharePoint integrated mode."
I have a feeling this has to do with the Windows Service Account and the Web Service Identity for SRS. What type of account should we use since we do not have a domain?
Thank you,
Michael milazzo

So I get the basics, have a script that can deploy a single report to a single server. I have other simple scripts that work as well. Now I want a script that can deploy a single report to multiple Sharepoint servers. I have about 30. I know we are probably doing this wrong, as in, we shouldn't be deploying the same report to 30 sites, as they are all all technically all on the same server however they are all independent site collections so as far as I know there is no way to deploy them to a central location and then link to them from each site.
So I tried to copy elements of my single report deploy script and duplicate the Sub Main() to Sub Main1() and Sub Main2() with multiple "ParentPath1" dims, yes I know I'm stupid. That obviously didn't work. So looking at some other scripts including my own subscription updater and I'm sure I need to do some kind of "For Each item in X" but where to start. The other lists I've seen all come from rs.Something. My list is just 30 variables in the script, how can I say for each site in this list, Publish this report?
Here's the simple script that works fine. I just don't know how to modify it to make it deploy this to multiple sites. After I figure that out, I was going to accept the challenge of deploying multiple reports to multiple sites in a single script...
Dim warnings As Warning() = Nothing
Dim parentFolder As String = "Reports"
Dim filePath As String = "filepath"
Dim reportName As String = "Report file name"
Dim parentPath As String = "Sharepoint site URL"
Public Sub Main()
[Code] ....

Through SharePoint you can upload an RDS file and then click manage data sources to hook upthe report to a proper shared data source. Does anyone know if you can do this through the SharePoint object model? We don't deploy our reports using the designer and we don't want to upload the reports using SharePoint. We want to add the reports to a document library using the object model, when we do this we need to manage the data source so that it will run.
Thanks,

We have a Report Server integrated with SharePoint. A month ago we deployed a report (rdl file) in SharePoint, but the person who deployed it was no longer connected with us. So we decided to deactivate it in our Active Directory. Yesterday, our users returned issues regarding they are unable to access their report. I believe the issue was "object reference not set to an instance of an object".
So I tried to download the rdl file and redeployed it but i am getting error upon deploying to SharePoint. My workaround is to delete the rdl file in SharePoint, redeploy the shared datasource and shared datasets and the rdl file. It went and was now able to run the report in SharePoint.
Is there something relation/happened when deactivating the account in AD that users unable to access the report in SharePoint?

Hi
I had the following setup:
Farm Server 1
* Sharepoint 2007 full install
Farm Server 2
* SQL Server 2005
I installed the following:
* SP2 for SQL Server 2005 on Server 2
* Web-front end install of Sharepoint 2007 on Server 2 - to install the object model
* SSRS2005 reporting services add-in for Sharepoint technologies on Server 2
Since doing that, I can no longer get to central administration on Server 1 - I now get the following error when navigating to central admin:
Server Error in '/' Application.
Runtime Error Description:
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.
Which web.config do I have to edit to get the full error to show, and has anyone else experienced this?
This happened to me when my servers were fully configured and had data - so I rebuilt them from scratch and the same problem occured again!

Hi there,
I am implementing SSRS 2005 Sharepoint integration mode in a stand alone server and we are having problems with basic authentication.
When the MOSS web application and the Report Server application is in Windows Integrated authentication Everything works fine and we can upload and view reports in the sharepoint site.
But when we switch the MOSS web application into basic authentication and RS stays the same with windows integrated authentication the reports in sharepoint throw 401 unauthorized errors. It looks like the error occurs when accessing the _vti_bin/ReportServer/ReportService2006.asmx web service??
Anyone have any fix on this????
Does SSRS 2005 Sharepoint integration mode support Basic authentication???

Hi,
I'm having problems setting up Reporting Services in SharePoint Integration mode. The development environment works fine, but I can't get it to work in production.
Problem seems to be in the authentication between SharePoint and Reporting Services. When I go to "Set Server Defaults" in the SharePoint central administration I get the following message:
Code Snippet
An unexpected error occurred while connecting to the report server. Verify that the report server is available and configured for SharePoint integrated mode. --> System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException: Server was unable to process request. ---> System.Net.WebException: The request failed with HTTP status 401: Unauthorized.

at Microsoft.ReportingServices.SharePoint.Soap.ReportService2006.ListSecureMethods()
--- End of inner exception stack trace ---
I get the same message when trying to deploy a report from Visual Studio to a SharePoint lib.
Some info:
- SP apppool is running under domain account a
- SSRS apppool is running under domain account b
- SP uses NTLM authentication
- SP and SSRS are running on different servers
- SSRS Configuration shows all green checkmarks
Things I tried:
- Basic authentication instead of Windows Integrated on SSRS
- NTLM only instead of Negotiate on SSRS
- Settings SPN's for SSRS, didn't help
- Checked NTFS rights on ReportingServer dir, were fine (Domain users have read/list)
Does anyone have an idea about how to solve this? Any help is appreciated.

I can't deploy reports on Visual Studio2005 anymore. I say "anymore", because a few months ago, this went well.
After building correctly, VS Studio asks for a Login for Reporting Services via a popup window. I don't know what to enter...
In IIS ( version 5.1) , I configured Reports and ReportServer for integrated Windows Authentication.
In Reporting Services Configuration, I have the Windows Security set on Windows Account, with a username and password that I also use (withoud success) to deploy the reports from Visual Studio. Since the user is a domain user, I tried as login also the complete domain name : domainusername. Nothing helps, the popup "Login for Reporting Servies" appears again and again.
If I change the settings in IIS to allow for anonymous access ( machinenameIUSR_machinename), I get the error message that the permissions granted to that user are insufficient.
I also changed the Windows Service Identity into "Local System" and "Local Service"; with the same result.
In the Log file of Reporting Services, I also find following phrase :
"ReportingServicesService!resourceutilities...INFO: Evaluation copy:0 days left"
I don't know of there is a link between this and my problems
Can anyone help me in this ?

We are running into an issue where we are unable to run scheduled reports from SharePoint in the "Manage Shared Schedules" sections of any given site in our site collection (<site url>/_layouts/15/ReportServer/ScheduleList.aspx).  Reports are able to be generated manually, but never run when scheduled from SharePoint.We are encountering the following error in the SharePoint logs for our server. Â
 Microsoft.ReportingServices.Library.InvalidReportServerDatabaseException: , Microsoft.ReportingServices.Library.InvalidReportServerDatabaseException:
The version of the report server database is either in a format that is not valid, or it cannot be read. The found version is 'Unknown'. The expected version is '162'.; Â Â Â Here is the background in our environment:
SharePoint App Server  - Server 2012 R2 running SharePoint 2013 Application server - running SSRS SharePoint Integrated configured through Central Admin.SharePoint SQL Server - Server 2012 R2 running SQL 2012 SP1 for the SharePoint farm - hosts the Reporting Services databases.I have run the script within the Central Admin > Provision Subscriptions and Alerts to give appropriate permissions the the account in use.  Also the reporting services databases were created new as part of the install, so they were not migrated from a previous version.

I tried to deploy reports from VS 2005 on Dev to Prod (different domain, in WSS integration mode) , but VS keeps showing the login window ...
I set up TargetDataSourceFolder, TargetReportFolder and TargetServerURL in VS 2005 on my Dev machine as mentioned in MSDN article "Deploying Reports, Models, and Shared Data Sources to a SharePoint Site" and tried to deploy reports to Prod machine. But VS 2005 keeps showing "Report Services Login" window to me, even when I used Administrator account of that Prod machine.
The WSS log file on the Prod machine shows this error: "The file you are attempting to save or retrieve has been blocked from this Web site by the server administrators."
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance! I have searched for days for this issue ...

We have reports in SharePoint integrated mode which are really slow when compared to native mode. I have been asked to research and give info on what exactly causes the delays.
Any articles which give me information as to what happens when a report is run from SharePoint server and where does it log.

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?

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!

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

- 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)

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?
More to come...

Up until an hour ago, I was using the Sql Server Reporting Services Report Viewer webpart in Sharepoint with forms authentication, and was not having an issue. The only thing that I did (or remember doing) before things went sour was upload a new report to the document list and since then whenever I try to access a report, manage the data source on a report, change the report URL in the webpart, I get the following message:
An unexpected error occurred while connecting to the report server. Verify that the report server is available and configured for SharePoint integrated mode. --> The request failed with the error message:
--
<html><head><title>Object moved</title></head><body>
<h2>Object moved to <a href="/_layouts/login.aspx?ReturnUrl=%2f_vti_bin%2fReportServer%2fReportService2006.asmx">here</a>.</h2>
</body></html>
--.
I found some related posts and have tried the following, but none have helped:
Removed all reports and reuploaded only the one that was definitely working.
I changed the application pool for the report server to be the same app pool as Sharepoint (runs under domain admin account).
I changed the application pool for the report server back to it's original (which the Reporting Services Configuration prefers - was running under Network Service acct before the problem started, now running under domain admin acct)
I can browse to http://server/reportserver.
I'm running under forms authentication, which had been working.
I can access the three configs for Reporting Services under Application Management in Central Admin - I've tried changing the settings.
I can access http://server/_vti_bin/reportserver/reportservice2006.asmx as well as http://server/_vti_bin/reportserver/reportserviceauthentication.asmx (that was suggested in one post)
I've restarted IIS numerous times, and also finally rebooted the server.
I've created a new document list and set it for report content, just like the other list.
I also just noticed that even though I've set up my admin account as a site collection administrator, I now no longer see my report options under the New button in the document library (both the old and new). I don't know if this is related.
I'm sure that this is a case of something minor that I did that I forgot about. Any suggestions or other troubleshooting that I can do?
Thanks!

I am trying to run a Reporting services report and pass a parameter using url access and SP Integrated mode.
I have managed to come up with the following: http://DashBrdRptSite/reportserver?http://npvmdashbrd1:2764/Reports/dashbrdrptstore/real%20time%20running/test.rdl&rs:Command=Render&Year=2006&Year=2007&Month=1
This works perfect as long as I run it from the actual server that has Sharepoint and reporting services installed.
If I try to run it from my desktop, I get prompted for a user name and password. And now matter how many times I enter my user/pass... it does not work.
If I just run the sharepoint link that appears on the report when I run it from within sharepoint... such as
http://npvmdashbrd1:2764/Reports/DashBrdRptStore/_layouts/ReportServer/RSViewerPage.aspx?RelativeReportUrl=%2fReports%2fDashBrdRptStore%2fReal+Time+Running%2ftest.rdl&Source=http%3a%2f%2fnpvmdashbrd1%3a2764%2fReports%2fDashBrdRptStore%2fReal%2520Time%2520Running%2fForms%2fAllItems.aspx&DefaultItemOpen=0
That runs no problem no matter where I run it from (my desktop or the Sharepoint Server), but it looks like I cannot pass it parameters. I guess becuase it is useing RSViewerPage.aspx.
Can someone please help me out?
Thanks

I have recently installed Reporting Services Integrated mode with minor issues and at the end I was able to execute reports as well as add the content types.
I am now working on doing the same exact thing except I do not see Report Server Content types. I am able to upload a report and execute it but cannot add the Content Types. When I login into Central Administrator I see the content type in there. Is there something I am missing to add it to "My Site"
Thank you,
Dave

Hi there,
I'm running MOSS 2007 in Integrated Mode, and I have a number of reports that are deployed to the Reports Library, and are working just fine when you go there and run them interactively.
Now however, I need to address the report via a URL, and pass it a parameter. Just to add a bit more pain, the report is in mdx, and expects an mdx parameter.
Here is the parameter "prm_cost_centre":
[DIM LEARNER AIM].[COST CENTRE DESC].&[Business]
Here is the URL of the report:
http://vmmoss:88/ReportsLibrary/Report1.rdl
(If you hit that URL as is, it runs fine, using the default parameter)
Now, I know that we have to escape the ampersand, so I'm thinking that this URL should do it.
http://vmmoss:88/ReportsLibrary/Report1.rdl&rs:Command=Render&prm_cost_centre=[DIM LEARNER AIM].[COST CENTRE DESC].%26[Business]
But it doesn't - It throws a 400 Bad Request error.
I know I must be very close, but I just can't work out what URL I need to pass in order to get the damn thing to run.
Any ideas?

I have a report in which the jump to URL always works in Preview mode in Visual Studio. However, when I publish it to Sharepoint the link does not seem to want to render.
Most of the time if the link is short like http://server.domain.com it works fine.
When I try ="http://servername/projectcontrols/reports/Pages/PhaseExpenditureBreakdown.aspx?Phase="&Fields!PhaseName.Value as the expression it never works in Sharepoint, but does work in Preview Mode.
If I try ="http://"&Fields!PhaseName.Value then it renders the URL in Sharepoint.
Is there some kind of size limit to the URL?

We have been successful in creating a custom Excel Renderer that works very well on a server configured for SSRS Native mode. However we have another server that is configured to work in SSRS integrated mode that we can not get this custom renderer to work properly. The steps we follow are:
After the report results are displayed we select Actions -> Export -> Excel Custom . So I can see the name of our custom rendering type.
After a very short amount of time (no more than a second or 2) I get a frame that says: an unexpected error has occurred. Here is the URL of the web site:
http://sharepointserver/sites/BI/Reports/Reserved.ReportViewerWebPart.axd?ReportSession=2jqe4e45sm0sze553avovv55&ControlID=5c4fbb59def64efdac050393cd3fb338&Culture=1033&UICulture=1033&ReportStack=1&OpType=Export&FileName=edi001&ContentDisposition=OnlyHtmlInline&Format=CUSTOM_RENDERER
Is there anything that has to be done differently to get a custom renderer to work in SharePoint integrated mode?
Note: here is the article we followed to initially create the renderer that will work in SSRS native mode:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/issues/05/02/CustomRenderers/
Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

I'm deploying a performance point site which includes several parameterized SSRS reports. Reporting services is configured to run in Sharepoint integrated mode.
I'd like to pass the parms to certain reports via URL posts when a user clicks on certain fields in a scorecard.
I can setup the basic URL to open a report, as follows:
http://okcrptdev003:81/sites/pps/PPS%20Reports%20Library/Production%20Control/Monthly%20Flash%20Report%20-%20Mgt%20Summary%20Oracle.rdl
When this URL is executed, the sharepoint site redirects with the following URL, which opens the report and prompts for a text date paramater (DatePrompt) in the format dd-mmm-yy (i.e. 01-Sep-07)
http://okcrptdev003:81/sites/pps/_layouts/ReportServer/RSViewerPage.aspx?RelativeReportUrl=/sites/pps/pps%20reports%20library/production%20control/monthly%20flash%20report%20-%20mgt%20summary%20oracle.rdl
I attempted to modify the original URL call to include the date parameter as follows:
http://okcrptdev003:81/sites/pps/PPS%20Reports%20Library/Production%20Control/Monthly%20Flash%20Report%20-%20Mgt%20Summary%20Oracle.rdl&rs:command=render&DatePrompt=01-Sep-07
This resulted in a page not found error.
I then modified the redirected URL to see if that would work:
http://okcrptdev003:81/sites/pps/_layouts/ReportServer/RSViewerPage.aspx?RelativeReportUrl=/sites/pps/pps%20reports%20library/production%20control/monthly%20flash%20report%20-%20mgt%20summary%20oracle.rdl&rs:command=render&DatePrompt=01-Sep-07
This will open the report, but it ignores the parameter and continues to prompt for the date.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks, mike

and in the sharepoint server when I need to grant acess to database gets an error to...
and the page that always runned :
http://CGDWX01115883/ReportServer
after I change to integrate does not work and gives me this error:

I have created a report project file on my local machine.Now I'm trying to deploy those reports to a development server. I have installed sql server and tools in my local machine but never configured reporting services. When I try to deploy those reports, it asks username and password for reporting services login.
But usually as far as I know, i should be able to deploy my reports without entering password etc. Even if I enter username and password, still they dont work.
Is that becase I install SQL server in my local machine?
Does anyone know why?
Thanks
