I am building a SCCM 2012 SP1 test bed. Using Server 2012 as a host and SQL2008R2 as the database. Reporting is supposed to generate Reports but none are created. Going to Report Manager (1) shows reports being generated every minute or so! Selecting Report Builder (2) and starting the wizard allows the selection os the data source, and (3) reports a connection. Step 4 is where is all dies, unable to connect to data source. Any ideas about fixing this problem from SCCM or Reporting Services would be welcome

≪ Previous: First Report

Hi all

I have a column (ColumnC) in an access query which extracts the notes from column A and ColumnB and seperates them with a comma.

This is the expressoin I use in access (Note: [RecheckNote] & IIf(Not IsNull([RecheckNote]) And Not IsNull([CTNote]),",","") & [CTNote] )

What I would like is to write an Expression in RDLC report that everytime it encounters a comma it would do a line return and Put "-" after the line return.

Can someone help with this situation

Thanks in advance

≪ Previous: writing an expression that would do a vbcrl

One of my servers quit responding during some troubleshooting of another issue and when I try to reconfigure it I am receiving Results as follows:

Reserving url http://+:80
The URL has already been reserved.

It appears to me that there is something with the Virtual Directory that is not allowing me to use it or overwrite it. If I change the name or the port the new configuration works fine, however this is part of a scale-out test environment and I need to keep the virutal directory names the same.

I have uninstalled and reinstalled SSRS in an attempt to resolve, but that did nothing to this issue.

How can I manually list, delete, or edit Virtual Directories in SSRS 2008?

Hi,

I am new in SSRS world. Is it possible to use a check box as parameters? e.g. Suppose There are 3 parameter in my reports. 1st one is Site, 2nd one is Component and Third one is a Check box (name 'ISComponentIncluded'). If we check the third parameter then the 2nd parameter will be considered otherwise it will be disabled.

Can anyone help me regarding that?

Thanks,

Hello!

I am currently designing a system administrator backup log report and was looking for some help.

I currently have a matrix which shows the following information:
Column: Server Name
Row: Date of Backup
Details: Unique error code

My end goal is to produce a report where the user can click on the unique error code from within the report and open a subreport(?) which will show additional information including things such as: server name, error history, actions by other administrators, etc.

I was wondering if this is possible, possible steps to accomplish this or is this not supported with SSRS?

Thank you for your time,

Scott

Empty data after filtering group

Hello,

I have some dataset (sql select), like :

Col1 Col2 Col3

group1name, data1, data2

group1name, data3, data4

group2name, data1, data2

group2name, data3, data4

There's a table in report and a row which contains only one group (multiple groups in one table, one after another).

In design time it looks like this:

Clik here to view.

Grouping value: by Col1 value. First column contains title of its row group ("group1name").

And then every Group contains Filter like: Col1(.Value) = "group1name", for example.

Its quite similar to 'total' row for each group indeed.

Sometimes, there's no group at all in a resultset with Col1 value equals "group1name", and then this group are hided from 'runtime' table.

So, how I can show empty row in this case? (like NoRowsMessage in table)

With respect,

Eugene.

Parameter change does not refresh default values of dependent parameters

March 9, 2010, 8:23 am

≫ Next: SSRS Date Parameter Default for Subscribed Report

≪ Previous: Empty data after filtering group

Hi,

I have a problem with my dependent multi-value parameters in my SSRS 2008 SP1 reports. The default values for the parameters are correctly loaded when the report is opened, but when a primary parameter value is changed the default values for the dependent parameters are not set. Let me describe this problem further more with an example:

Parameter 1: Region
Parameter 2: Property

Both parameters are filled each by a query to the database where the query for Property has the selected values of Region in its where clause.

Region: select Region_ID, Region_Key from Region order by SortOrder
Property: select Property_ID, Property_Key from Property where Region_ID in (@Region) order by Property_Key

For both parameters I have set the Default Values to the same dataset as selected for Available Values.

1. Now, when the report is opened, all parameters are filled with the correct values and set to the correct default values (all selected).
2. When I change the Region parameter to only one of the 4 available values the Property parameter is refreshed and filled with the correct values (for that one region) and set to the correct default values (all selected).
3. The problem occurs when I change the Region Parameter back to "(Select All)". The multi-value parameter drop-down-list Property is filled with the correct values for all 4 regions but the default values are not selected. Only those properties are (or better: remain) selected, which were selected before when only one region was selected.

Can you please help me with this problem? Setting the Property parameter to "Always refresh" under the "Advanced" properties does not solve the problem. It occurs both in the Business Intelligence Studio and then browsing the report through the web published on SSRS.

Regards,
Alex

Hi All,

I have a SSRS Report with two parameters.

1. StartDate

2. EndDate.

Now If user want to subscribe for this Report, I know how to subscribe. But what about Start and End Date parameter. I know there is something called Default, but what i want is as below.

1. Subscription for Daily. So i subscribe to run it for 8 AM daily. For start and end date it should take previous date.

Ex. If i am subscribing for 20/01/2013 then Start Date would be '19/01/2013 00:00:00' and EndDate should be '19/01/2013 23:59:59'

2. Subscription for Weekly. So i subscribe to run it for 8 AM Weekly. For start and end date it should take 7 days previous.

Ex. if i am subscribing for 20/01/2013 then Start Date would be '13/01/2013 00:00:00' and EndDate should be '19/01/2013 23:59:59'

3. Subscription for Monthly. So i subscribe to run it for 8 AM Monthly. For Start and End Date it should be take 30 or 31 days accordingly

Ex. if i am subscribing for 20/01/2013 then Start Date would be '20/01/2012 00:00:00' and EndDate should be '19/01/2013 23:59:59'

Note: This is only Single Report, which i want to schedule for Daily, Weekly and Monthly.

How can achieve this. I think i need to expression in Default value for what expression should i use. Any help is really appreciated,

Thank you

To all,

I have deployed the Printer Delivery Sample and another FTP Delivery Extension. Neither one are showing the WebControl HTML table as it is defined in the custom assembly DLL. When I attach to the browser and access the subscription html content Visual Studio 2008 fails to attach to the DLL and allow walk through of the code.

The Delivery Extension drop down shows the selection for both the Printer Delivery Sample and the FTP Delivery Extension. However, neither of them are showing their defined textbox field labels. This seems to be another indication that the custom delivery extension assembly is not being loaded correctly. I believe I'm encountering the same issue with the sample and the custom ftp delivery extension.

Has anyone encountered this issue with the Printer Delivery Sample or one they built from scratch? Does anyone have any troubleshooting tips on how to attach to and invoke the DLL for code walk through.

I'm running SQL Server 2008 EE 32 bit SSRS/SPIM with MOSS 2007 on single Windows 2003 in a VMWare machine. I'm using Visual Studio 2008 Pro to build the DLL's and attempt to debug. Everything else is working fine.

I'll be glad to show any code that will help troubleshoot.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi,

I am trying to create a silverlight application that calls the ReportExecution2005 webservice and it seems that silverlight wants a CrossDomain.xml file at the root of the domain hosting the ReportExecution2005 webservice. In reporting services 2005 I can add the CrossDomain.xml to the root of the app pool hosting the webservice through IIS but I can't figure out how to add it in SSRS 2008 since the web service is hosted by Sys.Http. Does anyone know how I would add the CrossDomain.xml in SSRS 2008?

Hi,

We have a really funny problem with embedding an image into an SSRS report.

If we embed an image with a URL of less than 50 characters it works - but if its over it doesnt render at all, even if the URL is valid.

I have tried:

1) Passing the URL in as a parm

2) hard coding it !

3) pass it in from the datasource

An example of the type of URL is as follows (sample only!):

http://myBlobStore.blob.core.windows.net/aa1s2e98-4be3-e222-a60b-00155d01400e/logoBlueImage.png

Which is way more than 50 characters.

Has anyone any suggestions on how I can get around this limitation in SSRS ?

Thanks in advance!

You can see I am already sorting the row group so 'Revenue' comes first and all 'Expense' types come after. I am doing this using a sort expression:

Hello,

I am reading thisarticle to see what sort of data sources can be used for defining the list of recepients for data driven subscription.

Very surprisingly sharepoint lists are not specified as a source for data driven subsriptions

Which is odd because sharepoint lists should be the best place work keeping the subscription list.

Is it possible to customize SSRS so that it picks up the subscription list from Sharepoint list?
