I have several Report.drlx file in Report libary in SharePoint.
My colleague is getting following error when building report by dragging Facts and Dimentions to report.

TF10121: The path '' is not found or not supported. Type or select a different path. After SQL2012 install and Solution upgraded to VS2010

I have recently upgraded a solution from vs2008 to vs2010.  This solution happens to contain several .rptproj file (SSRS 2008R2 reports).  I was able to upgrade the solution after I installed SQL2012 (which installed the necessary templates into vs2010). 

However whenever I open the solution the Output window now pops up and continuously lists the same error (shows output from Source Control - Team Foundation).

TF10121: The path '' is not found or not supported. Type or select a different path.

I have tried reinstalling Team Explorer SP1, and VS2010 SP1, but with no change.

If I unbind the solution from source control the messages go away.  Rebind and they return.

The problem doesn't always start straight away, it may take a few solution explorer clicks.

Opening an rdl into the editor seems to halt the messages, until I go back to clicking in solution explorer (similarly the issue doesn't always re-occur first click).

E.g.

TF10121: The path '' is not found or not supported. Type or select a different path.

...

TF10121: The path '' is not found or not supported. Type or select a different path.

Audit.rdl has been automatically checked out for editing.

Then no errors until going back and clicking in solution explorer (which is using auto hide)

However, i would like to know how i can do that and where to do it. Moreover, if i redeploy the SSRS project, would that automatically revert the data sources and stored credentials to how it was before??? I am using SSRS 2012.

I would greatly appreciate any help.

Hello everyone –

I’m using SSRS 2012 to connect to a SSAS Tabular Data Source.  I have two parameters that I’m using: State and City.  The desired behavior is to select a State, and then select a city that ONLY belongs to the selected State. 

I have been able to do this successfully connecting to a standard SQL Server Database, but am having problems with the Tabular and MDX.

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

Have a great weekend!


Visibility Expression - Columns based on lookup expression

$

I have a tablix report with the main data set returning a list of all 'customers' in one column. Due to the nature of the database, I also have 3 additional datasets retuning addition information.  In the tablix, I have added 4 additional columns that are then performing a lookup expression to match the returned data within that dataset against the customer name from the main dataset.  I would like to be able to hide the visibility of the row if all the 'lookup' expressions for that row ('customer') are blank.  

Is this possible?

How can I filter a field that has multiple values by one value eg. 'contractor' and then if there are other values, let it choose any of the others, eg, owner, support etc.   I don't want it to pick contractor and if that's not available then defaults to nothing.

I have the following situation:

I need to group customers based on address and I have a flag to see if customers receive benefits or not (the point is to identify if at the same address there are customers who receive benefits and customers who do not receive benefits)

here is my table (row group by Address)

                Address                       CustomerID            IsReceivingBenefits

Row 1:     55 Vine, CA   55548                    yes

Row 2:     55 Vine, CA                  55854                    no

Row 3:     655 Royal, CA              22222                     yes

Row 4:     655 Royal, CA              88888                     yes

Row 5:     655 Royal, CA              22444                     yes

I want to hide row 3, 4 and 5 because all customers at that address are receiving benefits.

Is that possible?if yes, how?if not, what is a possible workaround?

Thanks

Multi Column on a single tablix

$
0

Hello,

I currently have a report that has a table of contents in which I create a multi column of two to create. This splits up the report into a newsletter style and it fits my needs for the report. The issue i'm having is that the table of contents is the first page of the report followed by the actual data content. This content doesn't need the column property to get set to 2 because it messes up the format. Is there any way I can combine these two reports yet keep the columns property specifically to two of the table of contents and leave it for 1 on the other tables? I've tried sub-reports but I found it doesn't seem supported. 

Thanks!

Can I dynamically force tablix footer row visibility based on page length of tablix?

$
0
0

Hello,

My report contains Tablix1 and Tablix2, both using separate datasets.  Each tablix spans multiple pages, mainly because of page breaks being forced between each instance of a group.

Tablix2 has two footer group rows.  (Let's call them "Grand Total row" and "Text Blurb row.")  I want the "Grand Total" group footer row to only show on the last page where Tablix2 appears.  I want the "Text Blurb row" to appear on every page where Tablix2 appears.  On the last page where Tablix2 appears, I want the "Text Blurb row" to appear below the "Grand Total row."  This is where I'm finding it impossible to configure correctly. Is there a way to force a Tablix footer row (x) to show on every page, force another Tablix footer row (y) to show on the last page but above the other (x)? 

I'm certainly open to breaking apart the Tablix, too.

Thanks,
Eric



tablix row needs to repeat on every page, but on last page must display below the tablix footer row

$
0

Hi All,

We have an SSRS 2014 report that has changes requested.  One of the changes requested is to display a footnote on every page that Tablix1 extends to.  The footnote is currently in the very bottom row of Tablix1.

There's another tablix before Tablix1, and both Tablix objects will never appear on the same page.  Furthermore, the text in my footnote is dependent on the data being displayed Tablix1.  (For example, Tablix1 may show "refrigerators" on page 10, "TVs" on page 11, and "Stereos" on page 12.  For each of these, the footnote text should be just a little different.)  For these reasons, the footnote must be built dynamically, using an expression.

The problem I'm having with the textbox in the bottom row of Tablix1 is that it doesn't show on any page except the one where the tablix1 "Grand Total" row is displayed.  (The "Grand Total" tablix row is second from the bottom, one up from the footnote row.)  Instead, I need it to be displayed on every page that has Tablix1 visible.

When I took the footnote text (which is generated by an expression) out of Tablix1 and put it in a separate textbox, the report failed.  I assume it was because the textbox itself doesn't have a dataset attribute.  I assume it must be part of the table in order to know what value the table is using on a particular page, but I don't know.

Can anybody who understands this question provide me with some ideas of how to get a table row to 1) always show at the bottom of other tablix contents on the page, and 2) to display on every page that contains any part of Tablix1?

Thanks,
Eric


Can't send email through SQL Server Reporting Services.

Platforms

SQL Reporting Server (Win Server Standard)

Exchange (Windows 2012, Exchange 2013)

Reporting Server has stopped sending emails.  The Error message  beside the Subscription that "Failure sending mail:  The transport failed to contact to the server."

The Eventlog on the Reporting Server shows Event ID 122 "Scheduling and Delivery Processor cannot connect to the SMTP server w12-ch-ex1 that is used for email delivery"

From the same Reporting Server, I use telnet to send an email to myself with the same settings as what is in the configuration as the Report server, using the same smtp settings and sending email address and I can send an email every time.  This is to test the Report server smtp settings and to verify that the report server is set as an email relay.  Again, no issues sending emails in this fashion.

"Sometimes" when I stop and then restart the Reporting service, emails will go through via the reporting service, but this isn't consistent.   Sometimes if I recreate a subscription, then the email works for awhile, maybe even for 2 or 3 notices...and then it stops.

Nothing had really changed as far as I know and then all of a sudden the users started getting inconsistent reports and then it just stopped.

Any troubleshooting advice/steps would be appreciated.

Edge compatibility with SSRS 2016 RC0 ? Permissions issue.

$

I installed SSRS for SQL Server 2016 RC0. When I open the report manager web site in IE it works fine. When I open it in Edge, it asks me for a login and password. Then I get the error:

 

“User does not have required permissions. Verify that sufficient permissions have been granted and Windows User Account Control (UAC) restrictions have been addressed.”

 

I always worked around this issue by opening IE as an administrator then adding my account to the site and Home folder permissions. I did that. So when I open my local report server site in IE it works fine. but I still get the error in Edge, like it doesn’t know who I am even though I logged in.

 

I never had this problem with the old CTP release. But I am trying it on a new VM running Windows 10 pro, so it may be my machine configuration too. Just wondering what I should expect. Does this release support Edge or no?

 

Cannot use parameter on Postgres Query

$

Hi,

we created a report accessing a Postgres database. It runs without problems providing the expected info.

The problem arises when we try to add a parameter in the select statement. No matter what we do we get a "[42703] ERROR: column "MyParam_P" does not exist."

The query syntax simplified:

select Fielda,Fieldb,@MyParam_P as param from MyTable

A Report parameter has been defined as @MyParam

A Dataset parameter has been defined with Name=MyParam_P and Value=[@MyParam]

We tried every syntax we could imagine (brackets, using @ or not, ...) with no success.

Filtering the rows with an expression (i.e. Fielda=@MyParam) works as expected but this is extremely uneficient and doesn't solve the real problem.

Any idea what are we doing wrong'

Thanks


SSRS 2012 in SharePoint (2013) integrated mode - Data Driven Subscription option not shown for some users (members)

$
0

We have SSRS 2012 running in SharePoint Integrated Mode. We recently added a new site collection (with a separate content db than before) and then added a new BI site under that. We are seeing a strange behavior on the site where a user in Member group (with Contribute permission) is not able to see Data Driven subscription option when he/she clicks "manage Subscriptions".

For users in the owner group, everything works alright.

We have the same thing working alright for the existing site collections - all users with contribute rights can view and modify data driven subscriptions.

So feels like it is a permission issue while setting up the new site collection.

Can someone tell me what needs to be done to fix this problem?

Thanks,

Sonal
