ReportServerTempDB.mdf keeps growing

$
0
0

Hello,

I have a SharePoint integrated instance of SQL Server 2008 R2 Reporting Services installed and the databases (ReportServer & ReportServerTempDB) installed on the same SQL Server 2008 R2 Server as my SharePoint databases. The problem I'm facing is the size of the ReportServerTempDB database, as I understand it, it should clear itself out every 10mins. I only have a handful of users using Reporting Services and it looks like the database is just getting bigger and bigger, here are the current sizes of the databases;

ReportServer.mdf 13MB

ReportServer_log.LDF 2MB

ReportServerTempDB.mdf 4625MB

ReportServerTempDB_log.LDF 93MB

The ReportServerTempDB is set to simple recovery and the log is truncated every night using Symantec Backup Exec, the ReportServer database is set to full recovery and the log is manually truncated every few days until I set an automatic job to do this. As far as I know I have no data caching setup, so I dont understand why this ReportServerTempDB just keeps growing. There doesnt seem to be many other people facing this problem with the mdf file, normally the log, so any help would be greatly appreciated.

Report and Report Server Sites won't Start (Error creating HTTP endpoint)

$

@#$% you MSDN forms! I just lost my post, and I had to type it in AGAIN. Grr!

Anyway, back to my other problem.

I have a SQL Server Reporting Services installation with the following characteristics:

  • SQL Server 2008 R2 SP2
  • Developer Edition
  • 64-bit
  • Client Tools, Integration, Analysis, and Report Services Installed
  • Host is Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1

I completed the service's configuration today. I went to access the installation's web service and report manager sites; however, they're unaccessible. By that I mean, I request the page and nothing gets returned. The report service log shows the following entry:

rshost!rshost!5c4!02/07/2013-15:17:57:: e ERROR: Failed to initialize listener for type 2.
dbpolling!WindowsService_0!820!02/07/2013-15:17:57:: i INFO: EventPolling polling service started
servicecontroller!DefaultDomain!e24!02/07/2013-15:17:57:: e ERROR: Error creating HTTP endpoint. System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access is denied. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070005 (E_ACCESSDENIED))
   at Microsoft.ReportingServices.HostingInterfaces.IRsUnmanagedCallback.CreateHttpEndpoint(RsAppDomainType application, String[] urlPrefixes, Int32 cPrefixes, String[] hosts, Int32 cHosts, Boolean wildCardPresent, String virtualDirectory, String filePath, Int32 authType, Int32 logonMethod, String authDomain, String authRealm, Boolean authPersist, Int32 extendedProtectionLevel, Int32

The reportserver.config file looks right. I can see the URL has been reserved in HTTP.SYS. There is no firewall blocking the site's port. There is nothing else using the site's port. If I add the report server service's account to the local "Administrator" group, everything works fine. If it isn't in that group, the site's aren't accessible.

What am I missing here?

The data table contains data, but the chart has Red X when report is published

$

Hello,

I have developed a report, which contains one matrix and one chart, which shows a line graph using the data in the matrix.  When I preview the results everything works fine.  The matrix contains data and the chart shows corresponding line. 

It also works when I deploy the report to my local instance of the reporting services (running on my PC).

However, after I publish the report to our "real" reporting services box, only the matrix part works (it shows all the correct data), the chart is blank and shows an empty rectagle with a little image in the corner or a red x.  This seems like some sort of setting or a security issue, but I can't figure out what it is.

I appreciate any pointers.

Thank you!

P.S. Here is what it looks like:


Drilldown on a GROUPED column in SSRS 2008 matrix report

$
0
0

I have a matrix report, which has Id, Item in the Row Groups. Status in the Column Groups and Total, Cost1, Cost2 in the details. "Status" column has the values that I want to pivot on (that's why I am using matrix report). In the design view my report looks like this:

Id    Item    Status           Cost1         Cost2

[Id]  [Item]  Sum(Total)     Sum(Cost1)    Sum(Cost2)  

Cost1 and Cost2 are not grouped under the "Status" column, Sum(Total) is !! In the "preview" of the report, all the values within the "Status" column are displayed as separate column(which is what I want, pivoting!!). Here is how my preview looks like.

Id Item    S1  S2  S3 S4  Cost1  Cost2

1  B-234   23  21  3  4   $23.50  $30.50
2  C-650    0  3   1  5   $5.00   $10.00

This report will be drilling down to another report and I want to have hyperlinks on S1,S2,S3,S4 as well as on the values that are in there(e.g. 23 and 0 for S1). If the user clicks on S1, only the S1 status should be passed as a parameter in the 2nd report I'll be navigating to.

Also, the new report should be opened after clicking on any of these hyperlinks. Not sure, how I'll be setting the actions on the "Status" column for each of the statuses. Because, in my design phase I just have 1 "Status" column, and it expands out while previewing. So, how can I make sure that user can see only the data related to ANY of the 4 statuses (S1,S2,S3,S4) here and not all ??

Date dataset/parameter/conversion/formatting Question

$

Hello,

I have the following datasets/query

Date :

SELECT        CONVERT(varchar(10), CAST(date AS DATE), 121) AS Dates
FROM            View.Date
WHERE        (date <= GETDATE())

StartDate:

SELECT        CONVERT(varchar(10), CAST(DATEADD(dd, - 1, GETDATE()) AS DATE), 121) AS StartDate

EndDate:

SELECT        CONVERT(varchar(10), CAST(GETDATE() AS DATE), 121) AS EndDate

OUTPUT = YYYY-MM-DD

StartDate and EndDate parameters are TEXT type and Available Values = Dates - Dates - Dates: and Default Values = StartDate - StartDate /EndDate - EndDate

Now I have a data-dataset that filters data based on these values.

Sample Query of the dataset

Select * From Table where (CONVERT(nVarChar(10), Period, 121) <= '2013-01-31') AND (CONVERT(nVarChar(10), Period, 121) >= '2012-12-31')

and data filters in SSMS.

I have instead wrote the following in SSRS query

Select * From Table where (CONVERT(nVarChar(10), Period, 121) >= @StartDate) AND (CONVERT(nVarChar(10), Period, 121) <= @EndDate)

BUT NO Data

I have mapped the parameters @StartDate :

@StartDate 

and @EndDate=

@EndDate

I have also tried the following values for parameters @StartDate :

="''+Parameters!StartDate.Value+"'"

& @EndDate : 

="''+Parameters!EndDate.Value+"'"

Yet no output.

Can anyone point out my mistake?

Thank you







Reports Builder 3.0: SharePoint List datasource - How to retrieve items from sub-folders?

$

I am able to create an SSRS Report using Report Builder 3.0 using a SharePoint List datasource . However it only retrieves the items in the root folder of the library that I have specified. Does anyone know how to make it get the items in the sub-folders?

In Report Builder's Query Designer window I can see the xml text of the query and it looks somewhat like a CAML query. I tried adding <ViewAttributes Scope=\"Recursive\" /> to it in various places but it did not like that.

Does anyone know how to do this? Thanks!

Grouping row data

Using Visual Studio 2010 report designer.

I currently have a non-grouped report as such:

Lesson # |   Question #   |    Question Text

1|1| ~~~~~

2|2|~~~~~

I now want to add in the answer data, multiple answers per question, and have that data appear in detail rows below each question row, with answer row visibility toggled by clicking the question number.

Adding row groups wants to put the answer details to the right of the questions, not below.  I have no idea what column groups are trying to do.

Team,

I have installed SQL Server 2008 and SQL Server 2008 R2 reporting services on my machine but i am not able see indicator control in the toolbox. What could be the issue

Microsoft SQL Server 2008 (RTM) - 10.0.1600.22 (X64) , Standard Edition (64-bit)

Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 (RTM) - 10.50.1600.1 (X64) Developer Edition (64-bit)(Build 7601: Service Pack 1)

Microsoft visual studio 2008 Version 9.0.30729.1 SP

Is it because the visual studio 2008 R2 update is missing? If so please provide the link for downloading the same.

Parameter change does not refresh default values of dependent parameters

$

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

"How to get distinct values of sharepoint column using SSRS"

$

Hi,

    I have integrated sharepoint list data to SQL Server reporting services. I am using the below to query sharepoint list data using sql reporting services.

<Query>
   <SoapAction>http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/soap/GetListItems</SoapAction>
   <Method Namespace="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/soap/" Name="GetListItems">
      <Parameters>
         <Parameter Name="listName">
            <DefaultValue>{GUID of list}</DefaultValue>
         </Parameter>
         <Parameter Name="viewName">
            <DefaultValue>{GUID of listview}</DefaultValue>
         </Parameter>
         <Parameter Name="rowLimit">
            <DefaultValue>9999</DefaultValue>
         </Parameter>           
      </Parameters>
   </Method>  
<ElementPath IgnoreNamespaces="True">*</ElementPath>
</Query>

By using this query, I am getting a dataset which includes all the columns of sharepoint list. Among these columns, I wanted to display only 2 columns (i.e Region and Sales type) using chart. I have created a Region parameter but when I click preview, the drop down box is giving me all the repeatative values of region like RG1,RG1,RG1,RG2,RG2,RG2,RG2,RG3.......... I wanted to display only distinct values of Region parameter so that whenever end user select region from the parameter drop down, it will display the respective value of Sales type column.
Also when I select only RG1 parameter, it is giving me a chart including the sales type of all the Regions. (it should display me only the sales type of RG1) How can I link these 2 columns so that they will display the values respectively.
 
          I would really appreciate if anyone can help me out with this.

Thanks,
Sam.

Reporting service Application Startup

I am working on an Authorization Extension for Sql Reporting services 2012. I need to register my IOC container at start up of the ReportService. The global.asax inherits Microsoft.ReportingServices.WebServer.Global and has no code behind.

Do I need to create a global.asax.cs with an Application_Start method? Can this inherit System.Web.HttpApplication?

or Can I extend Microsoft.ReportingServices.WebServer.Global? If so, in what .dll can this be found to reference?

Or is there another approach to take to hook into the reporting service app start?

Thanks for any help,

Bill



SSRS 2008 R2-Data Driven Subscription fails if one of multiple email id is wrong.

Hi ,

I am using SSRS 2008 r2.

I have setup data driven subscription with two email ids 1) ras@mycompany.com (valid email id) 2 )ras1@mycompany.com (invalid email id..)

so in my subscription TO field contains 'ras@mycompany.com ; ras1@mycompany.com'

When my subscription runs it fails as one email id is not valid. 

Ideally it should send email to one valid email id from the list but it fails and it doesn't send email to anyone with below error in log file.

"The server rejected one or more recipient addresses"

Kindly suggest workaround..

Thanks,
