Creating Report Folders And Report Manager After Fresh Install

Oct 31, 2007



New ssrs istall. I think they loaded sp2. It's a cluster, but ssrs was not clustered (I think)


When I attempt to open report manager, i just get

SQL Server Reporting Services
Home


with no option for creating a folder etc, like i have on development


When I attempt to deploy to ther server I get :

Deploying to http://amsqlclusterxx/reportserver/
Error rsItemAlreadyExists : The item '/Retailer' already exists.


How do I create an ssrs reports folder?


Also, and this is strange, but in vs.net I had to create a new shared datasource after removing the old one on the report with the same name. The report renders fine when I do an f5 pointing to a new datasource, but I no longer have the RUN "!" icon available while in the data tag to run my query. Why is this?


Thanks for any help or information.

How Do I Restrict Access To The Report Servers Header From Users

Jun 16, 2007

Hi

I'm looking to deploy some SQL Server reports and I want to restrict the access that the users have. Currently when connecting to the reports site they have access to a lot of functionality through the header bar, for example
- Properties
- New Folder
- New Data Source
- My Subscriptions
- Site Settings
- Search
etc.

How can I disbale or hide all these options so that all the user sees is the list of reports?

Thanks in advance

Users Cannot View Reports That I (=creator) Can

Jan 26, 2007

Hello colleagues,

I am trying to create some reports in VS.NET for our Microsoft CRM3.0.

I am using a SQL query like this:

SELECT CRMAF_Account.Name, CRMAF_Account.primarycontactidName, CRMAF_Account.address1_line1, CRMAF_Account.address1_line2, CRMAF_Account.address1_city, ActivityPointer.scheduledstart, ActivityPointer.subject, ActivityPointer.description
FROM ActivityPointer, FilteredAccount CRMAF_Account INNER JOIN FilteredSystemUser FSU ON CRMAF_Account.ownerid = FSU.systemuserid
WHERE ActivityPointer.regardingobjectid = CRMAF_Account.accountID AND FSU.Domainname = SYSTEM_USER
ORDER BY Datum DESC

When I run this query, I get the desired result (I am the database dbo), but when any user tries doing the same, they get an error

An error has occurred during report processing. (rsProcessingAborted) Get Online Help

Query execution failed for data set '[DatabaseName]'. (rsErrorExecutingCommand) Get Online Help

SELECT permission denied on object 'ActivityPointer', database '[DatabaseName]', owner 'dbo'.

I desperately need to know which user rights are missing and where are they missing - I do not suppose that the rights are expected to be assigned directly to the database tables

Any quick help would be highly appreciated. I would also appreciate any articles with examples how to use parameters, filters and subreports.

Thank you very much.

Marek Hlavac.

How Do You Allow Users To View Reports Without Having To Enter User/password?

May 31, 2007

Ideally, I'd like to have the reports use windows authentication, ie grab current user/password so long as user does not have to enter it manually. If that is not possible, then how do I make it so user does not have to enter this info manually? My theory is that I have IIS set up incorrectly for doing this, but I'm not familiar enough with either reporting services or IIS to find out.

Users In The Report Manager

Oct 31, 2007



Hi guys,

I created a user on the system with a limited access privilege (Users group member). I need this user to see only specific reports when he login in to the report manager. I gave him a browser role on the report manager and went to the individual report and remove the permission. However, when this user go to the report manager he is not only browsing but also can do whatever the admin can do. I'm just confused. This user is created with a limited access and provided only a browser role, how can he act like an admin?

Please let me know if I missed something.

Thank you

Reports In Report Manager-drilldown

May 9, 2007

When runing a report in Report Manager I can click on an item and SQL Server provides the logic to drill down into the underlying tables. I can find no button to go back. The only way I've found to go back is to click a different tab at the top of the screen (History or something) then click View again and you get the original report. In designer there's a back button. Is there not such a button when running a saved report????



Thanks.

Moving Reports In Report Manager

Mar 28, 2007

When we move reports from one folder to another in Report Manager we have to delete the report in the destination folder first before moving it over if a version is already there. If not we get the error that an item with that name already exists. Is there a way around this? Is there a setting which will allow over-write of a report?

What Report Manager Config Options Are Available If Some RS Users Are Internet And Others Are Intranet?

Jan 2, 2008

If we decide to make Report Manager the UI facing both internet and intranet users, but prefer that our intranet users not face the performance hit created by SSL, and prefer that SSL be turned on for internet users, what options do we have for configuting our RS environment if all users ultimately use the same reports and we wish to keep number of licenses at a minimum?

Modifying A Report Model Without Rewrite ALL The Ad-hocs Reports Developed By Users...it Is Possible?

Mar 13, 2007

Community:

Suposse that some models are deployed in Report Server for a while, and users have developed some ad-hoc reports on them using Report Builder, (some of the models are SSAS Cubes).

Modifications are required for a Model, what is the procedure to deploy this modifications? What happens with ad-hoc reports of this Model? Rewrite all the reports is a VERY BAD option, I agree that some reports must be rewrote, but only if they reference objects no longer valids in new model.

I suposse that the procedure for SSAS Cube Models will be different for a Relational Database Source because metods of generating models are so different. (I am particularly curious about Cubes, I can't figure out how I can do it)

Suggestions and links will be very appreciate.

Regards

Printing SSRS Reports Using Report Manager

Apr 28, 2008

Hello all,
When I print the reports ( or export to PDF) in Report Manager, my every alternate page is blank? If the report is just one page report, I get second page as blank when I print or export. The report prints in Landscape format( which should be fine given 8.5 inch height and 11 inch width).
I have played with the interactive Height and other height parameters but with no luck.
My current settings in the rdl file is:
<BottomMargin>0.5in</BottomMargin>
<RightMargin>0.5in</RightMargin>
<PageWidth>11in</PageWidth>
...
<Width>11in</Width>
<InteractiveHeight>1.5in</InteractiveHeight>
<Language>en-US</Language>
<TopMargin>0.5in</TopMargin>
<PageHeight>8.5in</PageHeight>

I would highly appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks

Viewing Reports Via Report Manager Fails (while Other Methods Succeed)

May 14, 2008

I'm having a strange problem with SSRS 2005 that I'm hoping someone might be able to help with. I've reinstalled SSRS (multiple times) and even reinstalled IIS hoping to resolve the problem, but it still exists.

The problem is that trying to view a report via Report Manager is failing. All other operations within Report Manager work fine (browsing folders and report lists, viewing folder and report properties, changing properties, setting permissions, etc.) Only trying to view reports fails. Whenever I try to view a report, I get the following error:

The request failed with HTTP status 401: Access Denied.


I can view reports via other methods just fine. For example, if I browse to the http://localhost/reportserver URL directly, I can view any report just fine. And if I connect to SSRS via SSMS, I can view reports there as well. I believe that both of those methods use a direct reportserver URL versus using the http://localhost/Reports/Pages/Report.aspx page within the Report Manager virtual directory.

Here's a bit of configuration information that may or may not be helpful to someone:

1. This is on a laptop running Windows XP SP2 (32-bit). SSRS (and all SQL Server components) are installed as default instances and SQL Server SP2 has been applied to everything.

2. All of the latest updates and fixes for Windows, SQL Server, Office, etc. have been installed via Windows Update.

3. This laptop is a member of a domain, but I am typically not connected to the domain (not in the office very often). I am, however, logging into the laptop using a domain account (with cached credentials). Local user accounts are frowned on by the domain and IT administrators involved (except for running local services). My domain account has full admin permissions within Windows and within SQL everywhere.

4. As far as I can tell, everything with regards to IIS, asp.net, and SSRS are configured correctly (ASPNET account seems to be set up correctly, all SQL services including the SSRS service are running under a local account with admin permissions, the Reports and ReportServer virtual directories in IIS are set to use Integrated Security, etc.)

I'm not an expert on SSRS, so this one has me stumped. I've reviewed all of the config files that I can think of looking at for SSRS and I've looked at the SSRS logs. Nothing really jumps out at me in terms of changes that might be required (and the SSRS logs don't really say much other than repeating the error). For example, I see the following lines in the ReportServerWebApp__xxx.log file:

aspnet_wp!ui!8!5/14/2008-13:00:17:: e ERROR: The request failed with HTTP status 401: Access Denied.
aspnet_wp!ui!8!5/14/2008-13:00:17:: e ERROR: HTTP status code --> 500
-------Details--------
System.Net.WebException: The request failed with HTTP status 401: Access Denied.

Anyone have any ideas? I've searched Google for quite a while trying to find something that would help me figure this out, but thus far I've not been able to come up with anything. Any help (or pointers to something on teh web somewhere that I might have missed) would be appreciated!!

I Can Not View Report Manager Anymore

Oct 13, 2007

When I try to run my report manager which is in my local machine, I get the following error message.

The report server cannot open a connection to the report server database. A connection to the database is required for all requests and processing. (rsReportServerDatabaseUnavailable) Get Online Help




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 can not open Report server data base and reportserver temperary data base, even in Management Studio. I can not see them there anymore.

Also When I try to open data base engine in my local machine through Management Studio, I can not open it. I get the following error massege.

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) (.Net SqlClient Data Provider)


Recently, I changed data base connection properties of all my reports. coz earlier I used a data base which was in the local machine. But then I connected all my reports to the same data base which is on another server. Then I changed all connection properties of each report. After that I deleted the data base in the local machine.

Would that be the reason for this problem?

Also SLQ server(MSSQLSERVER) and SQL Server Agent has been stopped running. I can not start it from SQL Server Configuration Manager.


Please can anyone tell me how to fix this problem and get my work done as usual?

How To Restrict Users To Particular Databases

Dec 16, 2006

While web hosting I use Sql Server 2000 as the database. Imagine I have hosted 3 Web Sites. All these 3 users want to modify/update their designs. What I did is I created respective 3 users having access to the respective databases only. So that they can registerd the ip and add to the Sql Server 2000 Enterprise Manager. These users are able to access their own databases only. But all these 3 users are able to access the default databases like master,pubs etc. How to restrict this.

Also suggest which is the optimal way to give control to the respective users while using Sql Server 2000.

Removing My Reports Folders

Apr 24, 2008

I am the administrator for our Reporting Services environment. I was researching the functionality of the My Reports feature of Reporting Services 2005. I enabled the My Reports feature and SSRS created folders to accomodate this feature. I then experimented with linked reports.

Now I want to undo this feature. I turned off the My Reports feature but the folders remain. The Report Manager refuses to delete them. I found their entries in the ReportServer.Catalog table but don't want to just delete them.

Does anyone know how to remove these folders from the Report Manager?

Navigation From The Root Folder To Specific Folders For Users

Apr 1, 2008

Hi there, I have the following setup in the report manager:

Root
|_ Sales
|_ Sales Export
|_ Marketing
|_ Production
|_ etc...

Now, I know that I can access each folder (f.e. Sales) by directly putting it into the URL. Is there a possibility to enable every user to the root folder and then denying access on specific folders? F.e.: Our Head of Sales should be able to navigate to the root folder and then dcecide whether he wants to enter the Sales or the Sales Export folder.

Is this possible? I tried a few things, but nothing works.

Thanks in advance!

Change Default Zoom Setting For Reports Viewed On Report Manager Web Site

Sep 14, 2007

I've tried changing the default zoom setting by editing the RSReportServer.config file to include

<Configuration>

<DeviceInfo>

<Zoom>Page Width</Zoom>
</DeviceInfo>
</Configuration>
under the

<Render>

<Extension Name = "HTML4.0" etc.
However, all reports still show up with the zoom setting at 100% on the toolbar.
I stop and restart the Report Server Service and it comes up OK so I know my XML syntax is cool. What am I doing wrong?

This is on a 2005 Report Server. Reports are built in VS2005 Report Designer and deployed to the Report Server directly. Reports are accessed via IE7 browser.

Unable To View Reports On Report Viewer After Publishing ASP.NET Web Site

Oct 31, 2007

Hi,

I have couple of Web pages linking to my RDLs using report viewer Web controls. I have no problem running and viewing them in VS2005 debug mode and report manager until I published them to local folder and set the local folder as an application on my IIS7. When running the published version of the Web pages, all my calendar image buttons (which happen to be part of the report parameter fields) turned to red 'X':

http://dyzimw.bay.livefilestore.com/y1pwxE9mLpX4JV7e438WA4DeGwu6YHQOkRoC20r_EhQ5uoXkt15dqs99LmiDSTauSvUCno9HnOwYKR34rPpFYA_lQ/ssrs.jpg

When clicking the View Report button, the animated progress icon not appearing at all. Before the occurance of this problem, I did face the problem whereby the 'NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE' does not have enough permission to view the report. After referring to some threads, I finally be able to get rid of this error by assigning Browser role to 'NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE' from the report manager. I wonder could this solution be related to the problem that I'm facing now. Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you.

Deploy Reports To Specific Folders

Jan 29, 2007

Hi, I am a new user for RS so this might be a very dump question for some of the advanced users here.

I am using SQL 2005 RS and was wondering how I can deploy reports to specific folders that I created on the Reports page. I do know that I can go to Properties to move the reports to different folders. But the problem I have is when I deploy the reports from VS 2005 ( I created the reports using VS 2005) they were deployed back to the old/root folder. How can I change the 'deploy-to' destination folder for the reports in VS 2005?

Many Thanks,
