This Feature Remote Access To Report Data Sources And/or The Report Server Database Is Not Supported In This Edition Of Report

Jun 16, 2006

SQL server 2005 express reporting problem.

error message:

This feature "remote access to report data sources and/or the report server database" is not supported in this edition of reporting service

I got this error message when I try to connect to database hosted in another PC running SQL server 2000.

Is it true that SQlL server Express can only use Local Database Engine to host the database?

Report Parameters And Multiple Data Sources

Nov 1, 2007

Hi,

Am having difficulty with report/query parameters, where the report now regularly tells me that I must declare the scalar variable @Site.

I want to use 3 data sources :

1. to select a site from a list of sites - works fine and I can select at runtime

2. Once this is selected - I need to present a pair of dates to the user - min and max for data for the site - needs selection 1 to have been performed. Now I HAVE seen this work - once, the date selectors were greyed out until the site had been chosen, then they became available. Now I get the scalar variable error.

3. Finally I will pull the data with 3 parameters (site, startdate, enddate)


This was almost working, and the detail was produced for item 3, until I introduced the date selection option. Now neither item 2 or 3 will accept the users selected site - its from a drop-down.

All 3 queries are being performed by SQL SP's :

1. exec getsitelist - used to populate the dropdown to select @Site

2. exec getdates @Site - used to preset the start/end dates (NB I would really like calendar control here to select the date, with the value pulled from 1 to set the start point - but hey lets walk first ;-).

3. exec GetData @Site, @Start, @End

SOooo - can SSRS2005 even support dependent parameters of this type ??.

If so - whats the best way to create the parameters etc. ??. NB I can see all 3 parameter defs in 'Report Parameters'.

Many thanks - hopefully - for my sanity :-O.

Regards

Graham

I am using SQL RS 2005. I have a report that is using multiple data sources from different offices.

In this case user from each office, select their office location and be able to see the data from their office. I would appreciate any suggestions.

I have multiple data sources that I would like to use for a single report. The data sources are separate due to security requirements. I have a table that I can get the Initial Catalog from. How do I get that field from the database into the data source connection string at run time?

I saw this link here but the light bulb didn't go off:

"define a query that retrieves a list of data sources at run time"

Can somebody help me out here?

Changing The Report Parameters Or Data Sources To The Values You Specified Is Not Allowed

May 24, 2007

I have a report I want to modify and when I go to deploy it I get:



Changing the report parameters or data sources to the values you specified is not allowed. The report is configured to run unattended. Using the specified values would prevent the unattended processing of this report



Now I understand the error, it is because on the report server's web management interface I entered credentials for the report to run that point to a custom datasource and supplied the appropriate credentials to run the report.



However, I don't want to have to reconfigure that just to deploy a slightly modified version of the report.



How can I get around this? Or what is the proper work around? I just want to change the background color from dark gray to light gray on a header column....



Thanks!

Reporting Services :: Report Builder 3 Using Data Sources From Multiple Servers?

Sep 5, 2013

I have a report designed in RB3 that uses a data source from a SQL database that is on the report server. I want to add data to the report from an access database an a network drive.

I can add the second data source and create a data set to add data to the report. The dataset query returns data from the Access database but when I run the report I get the following error.

An error has occurred during report processing. (rsProcessingAborted)

Cannot create a connection to data source 'Feasibility'. (rsError OpeningConnection)

Also when I test the connection to the Access data base I get error ERROR (IM002) (Microsoft)(ODBC Driver Manger) Data source name not found and no default driver specified.

I noticed that Report Builder is connecting to the report server. If I disconnect from the report server I can a can connect to the Access data base but not the SQL database.

How can I get the report to run against both data sources?

Reporting Services 2000 With SQL Server 2005 Data Sources

Jul 23, 2007

All,



I apologize for not doing the legwork to see if i can answer my own question, but I am close to a loosely planned SQL 2005 migration and don't have time and resources to test my own theories.



Is there a way for a Reporting Services 2000 server to connect to SQL server 2005 databases? I've tried creating a new data source and changing a report to this data source, but it seems like the report is still using the old data source. I'm guessing i might need to register new data providers on the 2000 RS server and then change the existsing data sources.



Ideas?



Thx in advance,



-Peter

SQL Server 2005 - Reporting Services Data Sources Named Pipes VS TCP/IP

Feb 28, 2007

Can anyone shed light on why I cannot get away from named pipes in my SQL2005 Reporting Services Data Sources? Can it not just use TCP/IP? My configuration uses two servers, one in which the reportserver is setup on, and another which hosts the database that is reported against. We are trying to avoid having to open up named pipes on the server that stores the data.

Any help would be appreciated.



An error has occurred during report processing.


Cannot create a connection to data source 'wc_datasource'.



an error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)

Should SQL 2005 Be A Dedicated Server Without Other Apps Installed?

Sep 5, 2006

I'm planning an SQL 2005 deployment and would like to know if an SQL server should be kept as dedicated as possible. Should apps that access SQL be kept on other servers? What are the do's and don't's along these lines? The plan here is to install everything that accesses SQL on the same server with the database, but this seems like a bad move to me. Am I right?

Thanks!

Copying Table Data From SQL Server 2005 To SQL Server 2000 - Very Slow When Using OLEDB Source And Destination Sources?

May 8, 2006

An SSIS package to transfer data from a DB instance on SQL Server 2005 to SQL Server 2000 is extremely slow. The package uses an OLEDB Source to OLEDB Destination for data transfer which is basically one table from sql server 2005 to sql server 2000. The job takes 5 minutes to transfer about 400 rows at night when there is very little activity on the server. During the day the job almost always times out.

On SQL Server 200 instances the job ran in minutes in the old 2000 package.

Is there an alternative to this. Tranfer Objects task does not work as there is apparently a defect according to Microsoft. Please let me know if there is any other option other than using a Execute 2000 package task or using an ActiveX Script to read records from one source and to insert them into the destination source, which I am not certain how long it might take and how viable will that be?

Any inputs will be much appreciated.

Thanks,

MShah

Accessing SQL Server Data From Oracle Developer 2000 Apps

Feb 17, 1999

Hello there

I have a customer that wants to start using SQL Server 7.0 instead of Oracle, but they have a lot of Oracle applications (made in Developer 2000 and Forms). Due to the big effort needed to convert those applications (to Visual Basic), they want to be able somehow to migrate only data from Oracle to SQL Server, and then use some tool that will allow them to use the same applications with the SQL Server 7.0 engine.

I found on the "SQL Server Developer's Kit" a document describing the process of migrating data and applications from Oracle to SQL Server. There is a mention to an Oracle tool called "Oracle Gateway to SQL Server" that will translate calls received by the Oracle engine to the SQL Server engine, but this approach will still require the existence of Oracle servers (which is the thing the customer no longer wants).

The second option mentioned on that document, and the one that seems more attractive, is the use of Oracle "Open Client Adapter" (OCA) that will allow Developer 2000 applications to communicate directly to SQL Server via ODBC. However, I have been unable to find (on the Oracle site) any documentation regarding this tool.

Has anynoe heard or used such tool (OCA) ? Any comments, tips, drawbacks, experience you could share ? Any other idea on how a thing like that could be accomplished ? Perhaps a third-party application that can act as a gateway between the Forms app and ODBC/SQL Server, or that will be able to generate VB code from a Developer 2000/Forms app...

Any help will be appreciated.

Please respond directly to me, as I am not a member of the distribution list.

Inserting Data In SQL 2005 Using Javascript From A Form Object

Mar 4, 2008

I am new to ASP.NET. At present i am developing a web application in which i need to insert data in database(MS SQL 2005) from a form which uses only HTML controls. I need to use HTML controls so posting of form to the server is not done and hence i need to generate HTML controls using javascript. So the data in the form must be stored in the database. How this data can be inserted in the database is the problem and i think that javascript might be the solution for it.

How To Create Apps That Write Code To Retrieve Data With Foreign Keys?

Apr 6, 2007

Hi GuysOff late, I've grown with programming that requires more than a number of tables that has foreign keys with other tables' primary keys. It takes a really cumbersome coding to retrieve the code from another table with the other table having foreign keys. My question is, how do we program VS 2005 such that it does all the retrieval of the data from the database instead of us writing the code all by ourself?Is it really good database technique to bend the normalcy rules and have one to two columns having redundant data?Can anyone tell me how to write code that retrieves the foreign key data when the data from the other table is called?Thanks

' The Definition Of Object [object Name] Has Changed Since It Was Compiled' Error When Altering A Trigger In 2005

Aug 17, 2007

Hello All

Not sure if this is the right forum to post this question to, so if it's not, please accept my apologies.

I'm working in SQL Server 2005 with a database that was migrated to 2005 from SQL Server 2000. I have to alter a trigger on a table for some functionality changes, and when I modify the trigger and then access it through the application the database is working with, I receive this error:


There was a error in the [stored procedure name] procedure. Error Number: -2147217900 Error Description: [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]The definition of object '[trigger name]' has changed since it was compiled.


[stored procedure name] and [trigger name] are where the actual names appear in the message.

I've tried running sp_recompile on the trigger, stored procedure, and table that are associated with this, and nothing works. I have dropped the trigger, which allows the save process to complete (but doesn't perform the required functionality, of course), and then re-created the trigger, but the error message still comes up. The compatibility level for the database is SQL Server 2000 (80) (as it was migrated from SQL Server 2000 as I mentioned above).

Has anyone seen this, and if so, how can I fix it?

Thanks in advance for your help!

When Using A Sqldataadapter In VS 2005 I Get The Following Error At Runtime. Object Reference Not Set To An Instance Of An Object

Displaying Html Formatted Text In Text Object In Visual Studio 2005 Crystal Report

Apr 29, 2008

Hello,

I know this question has been asked here before, but it was ridiculously answered : http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=98764&SiteID=1

I have a text object on my crystal report, to which I programmatically want to assign text in CS. It all works fine, except that if I have html tags in there, the text doesn't get formatted, it just displays the html tags as text as well.

Now in thread linked above, the answer was: right click the text object, and format the text object, hit paragraph text and select text interpretation to HTML. The only problem is, that for a text object, it doesn't have the text interpretation option. It's only an option for a formula field. It says so in the tech support link posted inside the post itself!!!

So if you have any idea how I can do this, please someone help me out. I am new to crystal, and there's not much helpful info on it online. I've searched for this for hours, and no solution.

Thanks

VS 2005 Error 'Object Reference Not Set To An Instance Of An Object' With Integration Services Project Create Failure

When trying to create a new Integration Services Project and start work in the designer receive the MICROSOFT VISUAL STUDIO 'Object reference not set to an instance of an object.' dialog box with message "Creating project 'Integration Services project1'...project creation failed."

Previously I had SQLServer 2000 client with the little VS tool that came with it installed. Uninstalled these prior to installing the 2005 tools (VS and SQLServer).

I'm not finding any information on corrective action for this error.

Any one have this problem and found the solution?

How To Optimize Data Import With Huge Volumes And Joins Across Data Sources Not All SQL Server Based?

Jun 7, 2006

I need to periodically import a (HUGE) table of data from an external data source (not SQL Server) into SQL Server, with the following scenarios:
Some of the records in the external data source may not exist in SQL.Some of the records in the external data source may have a different value at different imports, but this records are identified univocally by the same primary key in the external datasource and in SQL Server.Some of the records in the external data source may be the same in SQL.

Due to the massive volume of the import, I would like to import only the records which are different from what I have in SQL Server (cases 1 and 2 above). In fact case 2 is the most critical.

I thought of making a query with a left outer join between the data in the external data source table (SOURCE) and the data in the SQL Server table (DESTIN). The join is done on the respective primary keys (composed keys of up to 10 columns) and one of the WHERE conditions will be that the value in SOURCE is different from the value in DESTIN.

The result of this query would be exactly what I need to import.
How to do this in SSIS??? I couldn't figure out how to join tables in different data sources yet.

In fact I cannot write a stored procedure to do that, since one of the sources is in a datasources not SQL Server.
I have seen the Lookup transformation in this article http://www.sqlis.com/default.aspx?311 but this is not exacltly what I want to do.
Another possibility is to use the merge join, but due to the sorting I believe its performances would be terrible!

Thanks in advance for your suggestions!

Selecting A Single Data Source From Multiple Data Sources

Aug 4, 2006

Hi,

I am pretty new to SSIS. I am trying to create a package which can accept data in any of several formats. i.e. CSV, Excel, a SQL Server database/table and import the data into my destination database.

So far i've managed to get this working OK. However I am now TOTALLY stuck. I'm currently trying to just concentrate on the data sources being a CSV (using a Flat File Data Source) and/or an Excel Spreadsheet.

I can get the data in and to my destination using a UNION ALL component and mapping the data sources to it so long as both the CSV file and the Excel spreadsheet exist.

My problem is that I need my package to handle the possibility that only the CSV file might exist and there is no Excel spreadsheet. In which case i'd like the package to ignore the Excel datasource completely. Currently either of my data sources do not exist I get errors and the package terminates.

Is there any way in SSIS that I can check all my data sources to see which ones exist (i.e. are valid). If they exist I want to use them. If it doesn't exist i'd like to disgard it (without error - as long as there is a single datasource the package should run)

I've tried using the AcquireConnection method in a script task on each of my connections, hoping that it would error if the file/datasource did not exist. It doesn't though (in the case of an Excel datasource it just creates a empty excel file for me).

The only other option I can come up with are to have seperate packages depending on the type of data we want to import and then run a particular package depending on the format of the source data. This seems a bit long winded. I am pretty sure I must be able to do what I want to achieve but I can't work out how.

I'll be grateful to anyone who can send me any tips/hints/links on how I can achieve this.

Many thanks

Rob Gibson

Best Practice - Data Sources And Data Views Vs OLE DB Source

Feb 26, 2008

Hi, i'm wondering which is the best way to search data in a SQL Server.
I reach data using Data Sources and Data Views and also with OLE DB Source with a Data access mode: Named query.
I have to write the data into a Flat File. So, does any one knows which is the best practice for this? Or any one of the two are good choices?
Thanks for your help.

Beli
