RsInvalidReportServerDatabase Using Form Authentication
Nov 23, 2007
Hi,
I am trying to use form authentication for my reportserver, When i used Reports virtual directory , UILogon.aspx page appered, after logging into that page this error is coming mentioned below :
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 'C.0.8.43'. The expected version is 'C.0.8.40'. To continue, update the version of the report server database and verify access rights. (rsInvalidReportServerDatabase) Get Online Help
I have a login page that checks the given userid/password against ADSI and redirects the user if successful. My problem seems to come when I try to connect to the SQL database with the user's NT credentials. I have the user's NT account setup in SQL, have anony. disabled in IIS, using Integrated Windows Security in IIS, and am using the following connection string:
I also have this entry in my Web.Config file: <identity impersonate="true" />
Actually, it seems to connect OK, but I can not select any data. I just receive "Select permission denied...." errors even though the user has been given these permissions in SQL.
Hi, I would like to know how to call a report from a report viewer control in a web application. The reporting services is forms authenticated. I've done this authentication using the sample solution given by microsoft (adding custom security extension). Now am able to view the reports from Report manager and Report server URL. But i dont know how to authenticate the user from my web application and pass the credentials to the report server to view the report in report viewer control. Can somebody help in this? its bit urgent. Thanks in advance
I'm working on a web project that will display the reports in an iframe to the user. When I was using windows security It worked perfectly.
Now my boss wants me to use form based authentication instead that can authenticate against our current Active Directory. This is working perfectly and does authenticate correctly. The only problem is that when I load a report in the iframe http://myserver/reportserver/myreport-blah reporting services prompts the user to enter in windows credentials. Is there anyway to pass my form credentials to the report server so that the user doesn't have to log in again.
Both the report server and the web app are on the same server BUT in different virtual directories.
PS: I tried using the reportviewer control but it does not display things correctly. For example, I have use a multi select dropdown on the reports and it messes up the drop down when the user only has 1 selection (hiding the selection). If the user has more than one selection the drop down uses scroll bars. I would use the reportviewer control if it displayed exactly like it does when using alternate URL method.
I got Form Authentication to work, but I am getting this error sometimes. To reproduce this error consistantly is to run iisreset.exe to have a fresh start. Go to my report server login and open any report.
The page will display: The remote server returned an error: (500) Internal Server Error.
If i click "F5" to refresh the page the report will show up or if you go to another report it will work also. It is just the first time after iisreset.exe. It is very strange.
Here is my log file:

Hello, My company Intranet has a form that agents can use to post their comments about the company to upper management, but our customer service department would like to modify the form so that the agent has to pick from a comment type. The dropdown options on the form will be as follows: ComplimentsComplaintsGeneral CommentsSuggestions Each dropdown option has a designated table in a SQL DB.Using postback on the same page, I need to change which fields of the form are visible based upon which dropdown selection the user chooses, and I need the fields to then be inserted into the table that corresponds with the dropdown selection item. For example: If the Compliments dropdown selection is picked, I need a text box to show for the user's location, the name of the customer, account number, and the message box. Once the submit button is clicked, the characters in these boxes need to be inserted into the Compliments table using its data adapter. However, if the user selects Suggestions, the name of the customer and the account number should not be visible, since these fields do not exist and when the submit button is pressed, the Suggestions table should be updated. If you need more information, I will provide whatever is needed. As always, thanks for everyone's assistance. Chris
Hi, I got a problem. I installed Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express 2005 version. And I created a Compact database. I created an connection in SSMSE to connect the database and opened a query form. then, i run the following sql:
Select * from Table1
It returned 3 records to me. After that, I used program to insert record into this table. Then i ran this sql again, it still show me 3 records. I closed the query form, and re-created a new query form, then run the sql, it returned 4 records to me.
Why? It's very strange and difficult to operate, right? Is there anyone know how to make the SSMSE to return whole records without any close query form and re-create query form operation?
Hi everyone, What is the main difference between first form normalizations and second form normalization ? In my opinion, they are both generated for the same operation which is to prevent redundancy(in other words; duplication of data in several records). So would you please explain it to me ?
I folks.I Have installed sql server 2005 express and choosed windowsauthentication on instalation, but i make a mistake and now i needmixed authentication, how can i modify this whithout uninstall andinstall again the application?thanks for the help.
Hi there,I have installed MS SQL Server 2005 on my machine with windows authentication. But now I want to switch the authentication mode to SQL Authentication. I am unable to switch, I can’t find the proper way to do so here in 2005.Could any one help me in doing this?Thank you,-Ahsan
(Using win2k, sqlserver2k, framework 1.1) I have an fairly data-heavy application that uses Windows authentication (Trusted connection/aspnet account) to connect to Sql Server. The site uses IIS basic authentication.
On the dev server everything works fine but when I move to the live server things get strange and it starts to crawl along. (Pages load OK but then it just crawls as it loads the datagrids etc. Sometimes it brings back incomplete/incorrect data )
BUT When I use Sql Authentication to connect to Sql Server and there is no problem at all!
Ok, there is something obviously wrong with the live server (which is identical setup to dev)but I dont know where to start.
I've got two applications which both have a database on my MS SQL 2000 server. The problem is, one application must use Windows Integrated Authentication (which it is currently using and cannot be changed) whilst the other application which I'm trying to configure must use a SQL password.
Since the server has already been configured to use Windows Integrated Authentication for the existing database and application, how do I configure the other database to use the SQL password?
My work is using a shared application which accesses a MSSQL 2000 database. To access the application, the folder on the Windows 2003 Server is shared and users can access the folder through a shared drive.
For the application to access the database, it uses an ODBC connection to the MSSQL server which originally used the SA password.
We have recently switched to using Windows Integrated Authentication because we believe it offers a higher level of security. However the only way in which we have been able to enable this is to add the windows users to the SQL server.
The problem with this is that the application sets permissions for individual users on what records they can see within the database. We have found that by adding the windows users to the SQL Server, they can bypass the permissions the set by the application by simply using any application that can use an ODBC connection, such as Enterprise Manager, and see all the database.
One way around this would be to set up domains of users with access privileges to the tables which reflect the permissions set by the application, and configuring a view of the data so they may only see the records that they have permissions to. However to do this would require a high administrative cost to ensure that changes made in the application are reflected in the privileges of the SQL server.
Instead, is there a way the SQL server can authenticate that the ODBC connection is coming from the correct application using Windows Integrated Authentication?
This would allow the applcation to determine security, and stop users from connecting to the SQL server using other applications.
Alternatively, can the SQL server, using Windows Integrated Authentication, also ask the application to supply a username and password?
Any help with this matter would be greatly appreciated.
HiI have a Platinum database which stores dates in integer form e.g the dateis formatted as below:Column_name Type Length Precision------------------------------ ------------------------------from_date int 4 10Some of the dates in the Platinum database are as follows:729115729359730059730241730302730455How can I bring them into SQL 2000 as valid dates.Thanks for your assistanceSam CJoin Bytes!
Hi,I'm using SQL Server 2005. My Connection String looks like that at the moment: <add name="LocalSqlServer" connectionString="Data Source=xx;Initial Catalog=xx;Persist Security Info=True;User ID=xx;Password=xx" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient"/> Now I'd like to change this kind of authentication to Integrated Windows AuthenticationI added the WorkerProcess IIS_WPG to the permitted Users but it didn't help.Changed the Connection String to this:connectionString="Server=xx;Database=xx;Trusted_Connection=True;"All I'm getting is that my NetworkService is not permitted to access DB when I try to connect to the DB in ASP.NET.How can I properly configure that? Thanks!
Say, I have configured my SQL to use Mixed Authentication. Now, I have a applicaiton which uses my SQL Server. The application just creates a database in SQL Server and uses the database to store its information.
This application also has a SYSTEM DSN under ODBC through which it accesses the database. For the application to access this database, should I only use SA (as my SQL instance is configured to use Mixed Authentication) or can I use Windows Authentcation too...
If I should only use SA, do we have a documentation which talks about this.
For using different services of SQL SERVER 2005 which is better... Windows Authentication or SQL Server Authentication? what are the advantages and disadvantages of both?
I wonder if it is possible to set forms authentication for report manager but leave report server "as it is". I need to authenticate users from external LDAP and can't use windows authentication for report manager, but I would also like to leave report server open for anonymous users. In that way authenticated administrators could create reports which anonymous users could read.
I tested the Security Extension Sample and got it working when I rewrote the authentication part with my own LDAP authentication.
If I have understood correctly, the report manager is just application inside report server so is it possible to use forms authentication with one application but still leave the report server with Windows authentication?
I need to figure out what kind of Authentication , I need to use for following applicaiton
Product : -
1 ) It resides on a its Domain and has access to Database on that Domain. 2 ) We have a application level login , n based on application login id display specific pages.
The question that bother me is this
Q ) If i use NT authentication , then a user will be required to
a ) Login to domain (with userid and password) first and then
b ) Then i would require to again login to applicaiton with application level login and password.(different levels of login as there) Based on the application level login i will display only specific asp pages. They have different access rights..and roles.
Requirment is to login only once..and it should authenticate to application display specific pages and authenticate to SQl server database also..
Is there any way thru which i can map my application level login to SQl server.. and what authentication should i use..
I am in the process of rolling out a sql server 2005 enterprise install and had a question regarding authentication. We will be providing sql hosting for a number of groups on our campus, many who are not using our campus-wide active directory, though they all have an AD account.
Windows authentication via the management studio appears to use your AD authentication tokens and will not allow them to enter a username/password combo. Is there any way to configure this?
I would like to use our campus AD for obvious reasons but if there is a requirement for passing tokens this isn't going to work right? It's also going to make database mirroring more of a challenge.
I am trying to add records to SQL database, thru <form> </form> on click of button, The system is working fine, Databse table is getting updated correctly. But screen displays the same form again while i want it to open another asp.net page i.e. buy.aspx and also generate an e-mail automatically. I m stuck. Please help. pcg
Relevent code of mine is as below. <script runat="server"> void addtosalelist(Object sender, EventArgs e) { .... .... dbConnection.Open(); .... .... dbConnection.Close(); }
SELECT @topicList that produces a list of all the topic_names in the database seperated by commas. That's fine.
I couldn't follow all the code in this thread (http://www.sqlteam.com/Forums/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=18363) but I was able to extract and modify this code:
DECLARE @topicList varchar(200)
SELECT MAB_topics.topic_name INTO #tmp FROM MAB_topics, MAB_articleIndex WHERE MAB_articleIndex.article_ID = 76 AND MAB_topics.topic_ID = MAB_articleIndex.topic_ID
SELECT * FROM #tmp
drop table #tmp which returns the two topic_names that I'd expect. (Note: this is my very first day declaring variables and using temp tables.) So I keep thinking that the following code would combine the two above working functions. But, when I run it in Query Analyzer, it just returns "(2 row(s) affected)" instead of a recordset.
DECLARE @topicList varchar(200)
SELECT MAB_topics.topic_name INTO #tmp FROM MAB_topics, MAB_articleIndex WHERE MAB_articleIndex.article_ID = 76 AND MAB_topics.topic_ID = MAB_articleIndex.topic_ID
drop table #tmp What am I doing wrong? I'm sure it's something simple but I've been reading and trying and reading and trying for a few hours and haven't gotten it yet. The ideal response would figure out what I'm trying to do as well as what my mistake is and explain how I'm misthinking. A close second would be just fixing my code. :)
HiI am using Visual Web Developer 2005 Express and SQL Server Express 2005.From Northwind I can display data to Gridview.Could someone point me in the right direction on two points.How do I start a new database (.mdf) - I cannot find this option.I can change Northwind around - but I want to start my own database. Once I have that sorted - how can I "insert" data into database using a dropdown box?A "dropdown" box such as you would find online. Thanks in advance.Stephen
I need to make a query to a SQLserver db passing values from a dropdownlist and two text boxes as my criteria. Now if nothing is selected and the button is pressed, I would like to return everything that is part of my Select statement. I am having trouble making my sql statement work.
Im sending you my code as an attachment. I've put * around the area i really need help with.
Even if you could just point me in the right direction as to where to look for a good web forms book using VB.NET and ASP.NET I would really appreciate it.
Thanks,

Can anyone help me with this problem? I have a form with three drop down lists. From these lists, the user selects an accountID, the territory that ID is from, and the territory that ID is transfering to. Upon submission, that account number is inserted into the table, along with the TerritoryID, RegionID, DivisionID, and EmpID associated with both of the territories selected. However, upon running this, the accountID and ToTerritory info are inserted once, but the FromTerritory data is inserted tens of thousands of times. Although they are not entered into the same record, which i eventually want to happen, i do want to figure out why so many duplicate entries for the FromTerritory are entered.
