I'm migrating SQl Server Reporting Services from 2000 to 2005.The reports are generated normally in 2000 but it seems that it is taking more time in 2005 or sometimes it does not generate the report at all.Could you kindly suggest a solution?
hello good afternoon, I am having this issue, I need to move reporting services from one server to another, but I need that credentials, roles and reports stay the same. But as the reporting services is integrated with sharepoint, dont know if I can move both at the same or it has to be done one at a time. this is just data migration, but still I will like to Know how it can be done having the same structure with the roles and credentials. or it is prefered to do a ghost?? but the issue will be that we have the reporting services in one place and the data in another... donīt know how this will affect. thanks in advanced for the help.
I had to migrate my report server (2008R2) to a new domain. I built new server and restored the old ReportServer and ReportServerTempDB into new server and also restored the certificate from old server. The Report Server is running but I don't have full access to all server futures anymore, looks like it's AD authentication messed up. My new account is Admin on new server but I can't see all options, like New Data Source, or wehn going on report level to manage to see all option such as Parameters, Subscriptions, Data Source.
I am little bit scared that if i upgrade reporting server db to 2005, My report won't work. I just wanna test with some reports in SQL 2005 reporting services.
1) what should i do( I have already installed Reporting services in 2005 (64-bit)? 2) Can i backup Report server db and Report Tempdb database and restore in SQL 2005 but these database already exists in SQL 2005.? 3) If i upgrade these database , Will it effect my 2000 Production Reports?

Does anyone know how to properly install SQL server 2005 express reporting services on windows server 2008. When ever i try to access the report manager I get an error "Cannot access the remote server" even though the report server is on the local machine. I only have the web server role installed on the server. Im still quite a newbie at managing servers so please keep it as simple as possible. Thanks Matthew

I'm trying to install SQL Server 2005 on a server 2000 machine, everything is working with the exception of the Web Service Identity. It is putting machinenameASPNET, and I don't know where to go to make it use something else. I've look around but I have really seen any answers that have worked for me.
When I try to migrate a database on a SQL Server 2000 server to a SQL Server 2005 server with the Copy Database Wizard of the SQL Server Management Studio, I'm confronted with the following problem;
Performing operation...
- Add log for package (Success) - Add task for transferring database objects (Success) - Create package (Success) - Start SQL Server Agent Job (Success) - Execute SQL Server Agent Job (Error) Messages * The job failed. Check the event log on the destination server for details. (Copy Database Wizard)
When I take a look at 'Event viewer' on the SQL 2005 server, the following error is displayed;
InnerException-->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)
I already enabled the MSSQLSERVER network configuration protocols (TCP/IP and Named Pipes ).
We are in the process of doing a side by side installation of the SQLserver 2000 and SQL server 2005 on the same server. To install theReporting services feature of SQL server 2005 requires IIS. We have aseperate web server running IIS that connects to the database server.My question is : can we still install Reporting services on thedatabase server without the IIS?Thank you
Hi, Our team is developing an ASP.NET 1.1 Application that is written using VS2003 but using SQL Server 2005 as database. Can we use a Report Viewer Control that comes with SQL Server 2005 in our ASP.NET 1.1 application? If not, Can some one suggest some alternative way of showing SQL Server 2005 Reports in ASP.NET 1.1 application?
Does anyone know how to beautify the parameter control layouts on a report header?
For example I have a drop down multi selection control for a parameter for a report. I'd like it to be three times as wide. I could just add spaces to the labels but I'd prefer a more elegant solution.
hi, i am using SQL server reporting services 2005. but when i tried to deply onto the report server, i am getting error "rsReportServerServiceUnavailable". can anybody tell me what is the problem. manytimes i m getting this error.
I am migrating our reporting services from 2000 to 2005. I am following the instructions in http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143724.aspx. I am currently using the Report Server Configuration tool to restore the encryption key. I click "Restore", point to the backup that I created at the beginning of the process, enter the password, and the process begins. I get a check mark and a message saying "Restoring Encryption Key." The problem is that it never comes back from this. I let it run for over an hour and finally clicked one of the previous steps to abort this. I went back and started it over. Again, it has been running for over an hour. I get no errors; it just does not complete. How do I proceed? Thanks in advance for any assistance.
Apologies for the generic subject heading but I have a client who at my suggestion has implemented a reporting solution using SSRS. However, we are now finding serious limitations with this solution, primarily regarding exporting matrix data to Excel. The major concern is that after exporting matrix data you cannot sort, filter or format properly as we cannot repeat the group data, merged cells is also another big problem.
They are now seriously looking at bringing in different technology to address these problems and I was wondering if anybody had any positive ideas, as to how I can provide a way forward and overcome our issues?
Can I easily add an add-in to the existing export options, does SQL 2008 offer any improvements, are there any 3rd party offerings out there?

Any tips would hugely help. I checked this config file and have not seen this info in the file.
Is there a control in SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services similar to Crystal reports Designer control that can be embedded in third party applications that allows their user to design their own reports through the application.
Basically we are using the crystal control in our current software and are looking to move Microsoft reporting services
Your comments would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
I have recently installed SQL Server 2005 on Windows 2003 R2 Server (Standard Edition). When I run Reporting Services Configuration Manager, I get a message "Invalid Namespace". What could be wrong?
I'm using Reporting Services Configuration tool to add the Reporting and ReportingTemb databases. Once the have been created, the tool attempts to upgrade the databases and can not create a script. This are the errors I see from the from the Reporting Services Configuration Tool after creating the databases:
! Verifing Database Version
The Database version (C.0.8.40) does not match your Reporting Services installation. You must upgrade your Reporting Services database.
! Creating upgrade script for database version C.0.8.40

I've reinstalled the entire SQL Server 2005 installation. As part of company installation precodure, SQL 2005 w/o Reporting Services is installed first, followed by SP1. I then perform the SQL Reporting Services installation add-on.
How can we Integrate SQL server 2005 Report builder, Report designer in a custom .Net Application ? . Please Help me.
I want to provide Report Designer, Report builder and Query builder functionalities to my .Net application. How can I Integrate them in my application?
I apologize in advance for the lack of homework before posting, but I am just looking for a quick answer, or a quick point in the right direction to figure this out.
I have a developer from an adjacent team that wants to use Reporting Services in a SQL Server 2005 installation.
From what I found online during what I thought was a definitive search yesterday, I gave him the MSDN SQL Server 2005 DVD and told him that Reporting Services is now part of the standard installation. Which is what my brief search yesterday indicated to me.
He did the installation (full, according to him) and said he could not find Reporting Services.
So, the quick question is...
Where is Reporting Services in SQL Server 2005? I don't have a separate MSDN DVD that contains it as was the case on SQL Server 2000. This further supports my (wavering) position that it is part of the standard installation.
Thoughts? Direction? Collective kicks in the posterior?
I am new to both Reporting Services and Webservices implementation so I am just trying to use a simple example. I found a Webservice on the internet that returns movie information:
Setup: Windows server 2003 SP1, SQL 2005 SP2, Sharepoint Office server 2007, Report Services addin (CTP v9.00.3027).
Using the Report server configuration tool, setting Report Server Virtual directory, end up with RS Configuration tool crashing.
It appears to be happening on the task "Changing Secure connection level", & returns "System.NullReferenceException was unhandled Message: Object reference not set to an instance of an object."
I am working with one example on SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services. I have a stored procedure with two parameters. I want to call this stored procedure from SQL Server Reporting Services 2005.
CREATE PROCEDURE spEmp ( @id int, @name varchar(150) ) AS BEGIN SELECT EmpId, EmpName, EmpSal FROM Emp WHERE EmpId = @id AND EmpName = @name END
I want to pass
@id AND @name
parameters from reporting services form. Can you please give me link / article / steps to follow this in SQL SERVER REPORTING SERVICES 2005 ?
I have downloaded the freeware SQL Server 2005 Express Edition for learning SQL Server. Now I want to get familiar with the BIDS and the reporting services. I want to know whether Express Edition supports these tools. If not then what do i need to have to get the same started?? I have a pc running on Vista.
Help from anyone will be greatly appreciated as I have been looking at the forums for quite a while and i am totally confused in this respect. What is the most uncomplicated way to solve this problem??
