We have a SQL2K5 SP2 (x64) in active/passive cluster running an ERP application database.
I have users in remote office who are requesting the ability to run the "standard reports" from SSMS such as Disk Usage, Disk Usage by Table and so on. The user in question has AD account within the instance with db_datareader role.
What other database or server defined role is required to allow this user to launch and view the standard reports from SSMS?
This may be the wrong forum for this - if so, please direct me to the appropriate forum.
I've recently upgraded to MSSQL 2005 and I'm trying to execute the sp_databases stored procedure, but I'm having what looks like permissions problems. I can execute the stored procedure, but it doesn't return any results. As far as I can tell, the problem is that my userid can't see any rows in sys.master_files (I can select from the view, it just doesn't return any rows).
I've tried any number of things to get this to work, but the only thing that's been successful is to change my userid's database role membership to db_owner. In the long run, this isn't really a viable solution for me, since my userid should only really have read(select) access to the database in question.
I'd appreciate any pointers that you can give me - I figure I'm doing something stupid, but haven't been able to figure out what, yet.
After remove the previous SP1 installation of Sql Server Express with Advanced and installed the SP2 I've notice the presence of the [Reports] context menu voice.
I can see some report correctly, but for someone, like "Disk usage by table" i receive a NullReferenceException (System.xml) as following:
in System.Xml.XmlReader.CalcBufferSize(Stream input) in System.Xml.XmlTextReaderImpl.InitStreamInput(Uri baseUri, String baseUriStr, Stream stream, Byte[] bytes, Int32 byteCount, Encoding encoding) in System.Xml.XmlTextReaderImpl..ctor(String url, Stream input, XmlNameTable nt) in System.Xml.XmlDocument.Load(Stream inStream) in Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Reports.StandardReport.LoadRdlDocument() in Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Reports.Report.LoadReportQueriesFromRdl() in Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Reports.StandardReportFactory.GetReport(ReportInfo reportInfo, ReportContext context) in Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Reports.ReportsManager.GetReport(ReportInfo reportInfo, ReportContext context) in Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Reports.ReportsManager.ShowReport(ReportInfo reportInfo)
I have prepared several DTS packages which must be launched by a custom external application. What is the best way to provide access to this application? What are the minimum security requirements? Currently, they are local packages; I understand that some utility is offered by saving them as .DTS files, but I don't know the pros & cons. Are there advantages to using the Repository? The app should be able to do its work from a different box on the same network as the server. (Ultra-super-secret security isn't an issue, but I don't want to have give our developers sa-level access unless necessary.)
I've got a Server setup at work on our RD domain It's Windows 2012, running SQL Server 2012 with reporting Services I've installed our application and reports to this server.
If I'm on my CORP domain on my development laptop I can enter the following into IE [URL] ...... and the SSRS reports page opens up fine
I then RDP into this server using my same CORP credentials Open IE on this server and enter the same URL within IE and get User 'CORPORATEjoep' does not have required permissions. Verify that sufficient permissions have been granted and Windows User Account Control (UAC) restrictions have been addressed.
I'm on the Server itself. Why does my account not work there, but when I access SSRS from outside this SERVER with same login, it works
Already have SQL2008 installed, and it works fine and great.Needed to install 2012 alongside for another project. Heard it should be fine to have both running. So I did. Installed MDS, DQS, SSIS, Service, and management tools. Launching SSMS 2012, when I click the "new query" button... I get the following error: library not registered. (exception from hresult:0x8002801D (type_e_libnotregistered))
If I connect object explorer to a server (local or otherwise), and try to script an object, it gives me the same error and then crashes the application. If I launch SSMS 2008, I can use it to connect to 2012 instance. So I know the instance and service are running correctly. It looks like its just the SSMS that is a problem.
User 'DMNServerBreanch' does not have required permissions. Verify that sufficient permissions have been granted and Windows User Account.Control (UAC) restrictions have been addressed.
I'd like to cancel my long running Reports via ReportingService2005.CancelJob(). It seems, while I'm able to start a job I don't have the permission to cancel it. I always get the error message:
The permissions granted to user '<my-account>' are insufficient for performing this operation.
Do I have the be a member of a special group on the server running the Reporting Services?
what are the minimum required permissions for being allowed to deploy a report? When I try to deploy a report in BIDS I get the error message that my user has not sufficient rights for doing so.
Some key data for my configuration:
Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition with Service Pack 1 SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition with Service Pack 1 I'm not a local administrator, but I have administration rights for SQL Server and Analysis Services I'm in the Reporting Services' system administrator and system user groups
I can access http://localhost/Reports, but not http://localhost/ReportServer I have access to the directory (incl. subdirectories) MSSQL.2, but not to MSSQL.1MSSQL and MSSQL3Reporting Services I can't run the Reporting Services Configuration Tool (see http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=1565766&SiteID=1) I can't connect to Reporting Services in SQL Server Management Studio
My question is (as I have already mentioned in the beginning): what are the minimum rights the IT administrator has to assign to my user so that I'll be able to deploy reports? Giving me local administrator rights is not possible.
Thanx in advance and kind regards, Gerald
Update:
In the meantime I have found out, that I'm most probably not a member of the Publisher role. But although I am in the System Administrator role I cannot assign myself to this role. When going to http://localhost/Reports the required links are just not visible. Is this because I'm not a member of the groups SQLServer2005ReportServerUser$... and SQLServer2005ReportingServicesWebServerUser$... ?
I'm implementing row-level security in a SQL Server database that uses Microsoft Access for the front end. I'm using a UDF (a view behaves the same way) to restrict access to specific rows of a base table based on membership in a role. According to the reading I've done, if the base table has DENY ALL permissions for the role, and the UDF has GRANT ALL, members of the role should be able to update records in the base table via the UDF, without having direct access to the base table. However, I find that unless I grant appropriate permissions on the base table, the user is unable to update the table via the UDF.
Is this expected behavior? Nothing I've read suggests I should have to grant permissions on the columns of the base table.
What are the minimum permissions required by the SQL Server 2005 Upgrade Advisor (UA)? I could not find it in the documentation.
Obviously being a local Administrators Windows group and a member of sysadmin SQL Server role will do the trick.
But will being a member of only the sysadmin SQL Server role be enough? I know that the UA does want to read the registry.
Running it under just sysadmin generates the following type of errors:
Database Server PreUpgrade Requested registry access is not allowed. WINSOCKPROXY
Database Server PreUpgrade Requested registry access is not allowed. FTUNSIGNEDCOMPONENTS
Database Server PreUpgrade Requested registry access is not allowed. NETPROTOCOL
Database Server PreUpgrade Requested registry access is not allowed. FTMULTIPLEINSTANCES
Database Server PreUpgrade Requested registry access is not allowed. INVALIDNAMEDPIPE
Database Server PreUpgrade Requested registry access is not allowed. FTCOMPONENTREG
Database Server PreUpgrade Requested registry access is not allowed. FTACCTPASS
The issue then is whether these are significant or not. If the UA is only reading the registry to determine if SSAS, DTS, etc is installed then that is not important. But if it is affecting the end result because it cannot read critical information from the registry that is another matter.
I have a Windows NT group that is used to delegate certain database responsibilities to other members of staff and I am trying to grant permissions for the members of the group to be be able to establish database mirroring sessions, as in run the following:
ALTER DATABASE <database> SET PARTNER = 'tcp://principal_server.domain.com:port';
Although the group has db_owner role membership to the user database which grants the ALTER permission on the database, the following is being generated in the error log when they get to this step on the intended Mirror instance after restoring the database correctly in preperation:
SqlDumpExceptionHandler: Process 59 generated fatal exception c0000005 EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION. SQL Server is terminating this process. * ******************************************************************************* * * BEGIN STACK DUMP: * 10/29/15 11:16:15 spid 59 * * * Exception Address = 00007FF9A6AF838C Module(sqlmin+000000000003838C) * Exception Code = c0000005 EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION * Access Violation occurred reading address 00000000000000D8 * Input Buffer 210 bytes - * alter database <redacted> set partner = '<redacted>';
As you can see, the statement is denied to the user. There are no issues with the database as I am able to run the same query successfully using my own sysadmin account after the failed attempt. What other minimum permissions the group might need to successfully enable them to setup a mirroring session?
I'm making a copy of some tanles between 2 servers.
Server 1 requires a sql login
Server 2 is using Windows Auth.
I have a user on server 1 named "odbc" able to log in.
however my copy task fails, when I drill the error, it's lists the first user in server 1 alphabetically as the failed login???? but in my dts I am specifying the "odbc" user and password.
I think I have a permissions problem on server 1. So my Question, what minimum permissions does user "odbc" need to copy a table?
On server 1 I can copy from northwind to server 2 just fine..but any other db on server 1 causes the weird failure with the wrong username.
I have received some reports and I have been asked to decide whether these reports can be developed as an operational report or Analytical Reports.
Basically I wanted to understand what points needs to be considered while deciding whether I should go for Analytical reporting (Cubes) or Operation Reporting.
Hello! I have the following problem. I developed CLR Stored Procedure "StartNotification" and deploy it on db. This sp calls external web service. Furthermore, this sp is called according with SQL Server Agent Job's schedule. On my PC SQL Server works under Local System account and this web service is called correctly (Executed as user: NT AUTHORITYSYSTEM). But on ther other server the following exception is raised during job running: Date 17.04.2007 16:42:10 Log Job History (FailureNotificationJob)
Step ID 1 Server MSK-CDBPO-01 Job Name FailureNotificationJob Step Name MainStep Duration 00:00:00 Sql Severity 16 Sql Message ID 6522 Operator Emailed Operator Net sent Operator Paged Retries Attempted 0
Message Executed as user: CORPmssqlserver. A .NET Framework error occurred during execution of user defined routine or aggregate 'StartNotification': System.Security.SecurityException: Request for the permission of type 'System.Net.WebPermission, System, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089' failed. System.Security.SecurityException: at System.Security.CodeAccessSecurityEngine.Check(Object demand, StackCrawlMark& stackMark, Boolean isPermSet) at System.Security.CodeAccessPermission.Demand() at System.Net. The step failed.
What is the reason of this behaviour? Unfortunately I do not have direct access to this server. I have the following guesses: 1) CORPmssqlserver may have not enough permissions to call web service 2) Something wrong with SQL Server account's permissions 2) Something wrong with SQL Server Agent account's permissions I will take the will for the deed. Thanks.
Using SQL Server 2k5 sp1, Is there a way to deny users access to a specific column in a table and deny that same column to all stored procedures and views that use that column? I have a password field in a database in which I do not want anyone to have select permissions on (except one user). I denied access in the table itself, however the views still allow for the user to select that password. I know I can go through and set this on a view by view basis, but I am looking for something a little more global.
Hello SQL Server Experts, Data Analysts, and Report Writers et al:
re: Reporting Options with SQL Server
I wanted to propose an offshoot to the pryor thread:
Would anyone take a stab at comparing Access Reports, Crystal Reports, Cognos or other options to all the Reporting Services and its components offered as part ofSQL Server, especially as to extracting data from SQL Server into a report format?
I guess this is a far as capabilites, ease of use, limitations, and especially formatting or presentation of the end report product?
Thank you to all, and I hope this is a beneficial discussion to others.
I have an already published application running several MS SQL Server 2000 Reporting Services report. I need a way to find from either the reporting services log or the application server (IIS) logs or windows log to know the frequency of each report being used.
Based on this info, the business needs to know which reports are being used and to what extend? How can I acheive this?
I have already got the IIS logs and it did not give the required info. I have looked into the Reporting Services logs but it does not provide the info either.

My issue is with converting multi-value parameters:
In Crystal Reports, you can set a parameter to accept multiple vales (Discrete, Range or Discrete and Range).
As an example:
I have a database table with a column called ID. I can create a parameter called param_id and set the options of the parameter to "Allow multiple range values".
With this setup, I can limit the result set of the report by comparing the param_id parameter to the ID column in the database. Because param_id is a multi-value range parameter, I can pass it the following data: 1 - 50 60 - 80 150 - 127
This will only return results within those ranges.
Does anyone know if SSRS provides this kind of functionality?
Is there a way to copy reports from other users "My reports" folder? I am logging onto the management studio reporting services using an administrative account and I am able to view the reports from all users' "My Reports" folder. But I am not able to export them as an rdl file. I am able to export reports from other common folders, but not from the "My Reports" folder.
The reason I need to do this is some of the users have created some reports in one environment and the reports are available in their respective "My Reports" folder. I need to move these reports to their corresponding "My Reports" folder in another environment.
1. I downloaded ChartFXRSTrial and created one chart, and able to deploy it in ReportServer, but the problem is the reports are not showing there, i checked the configuration of .dll files in the help provided by chartFX, but couldn't get anything, so could help me on this.
2. How to give Tooltip for the X- axis or Y- axis values in the ReportServer , i tried using chartproperties of .rdl file, but didnt understand it. can help me on this, and one more i tried with Dundas too, If im giving tooltip as #valy then, it is showing samething in reportserver instead the values of 'Y-axis'.
I installed Visual Studio over a year and a half ago when I became a Microsoft ISV. I have done all of my SQL Server work from within the Visual Studio framework and UI. I recently was asked to document how a customer's users would set up the customer's system using SQL Server 2005, but not having Visual Studio. I got the book Beginning SQL Server 2005 for Developers and immediately ran into a wall. Dewson (the author) talks about the SQL Server Management Studio. He says you get to it by Start > Programs > Microsoft SQL Server 2005 > Sql Server Management Studio. When I tried, I went Start > All Programs > Microsoft SQL Server 2005 > Configuration Tools.
I have reinstalled my SQL Server 2005 Developer's edition and installed SQL Server 2005 Standard edition every way I can see, but I still can't get SSMS to come up. What am I doing wrong?
I am running XP Pro 2002 with SP 2. It is on a thinkpad with P4-M 1.8 ghz and 512 mb RAM. My Add/Remove programs says I have SQL Server 2005, SQL Server 2005 Backward Compatibility, SQL Server Native Client, SQL Server Setup Support Files, and SQL Server VSS Writer installed.
I installed Red Gate's SQL Search and now I have an Add-ins icon. From the Icon I got to a list of tools, one of which is SSC's script library.
When I downloaded it I got this file "SQLScripts.utmcsr&__utmv=-&__utmk=243779397" which did not trigger an installer when clicking on it. How do I add it.
