SSRS Mobile Report - Deployment

$
0
0

When Mobile Reports (Formerly Datazen) Dashboards are being deployed, are there any "best practice guidelines" for installation of the SQL Server 2016 different components?  What are the bare minimum features needed to be installed for only the SSRS mobile reporting until I have time upgrade my application DBs to SQL Server 2016?

If the Mobile Dashboards are going to be available to the public via Power Builder BI, is there a need to install the SQL Server 2016 Instance for the SSRS on a web server? The Data Sources/ Datasets will be accessing a prior version of SQL Server on a DB Server which would be internal.

Can someone point me to some documentation which would explain the setup options? Is it suggested to have the DB server and the SSRS DBs on the same box...

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. As you can tell, I am not a DBA or networking expert by any means.

Thanks!

SQL 2016 on Premise release?

$

I hope this is the correct forum, if not sorry.
I thought SQL 2016 was going to have a full blown on premise for Power BI?  One where we would not have to subscribe to the power bi services at all, but could instead host it all on your servers.  Is there still a plan to do that, and is there a time line for a release?

Thanks

No data row for pie chart in a Table

$
0
0

HI All,

I have created a pie chart which shows some states information. If there is no data to display then it shows "NO DATA" as a background image. This is configured by usingNoDataMessage property of a chart. 

Later I added this Pie Chart in a Table to display pie-charts per group, say grouped on System-Names. As the table is grouped on SystemName, the pie charts are getting rendered based on each SystemName.

Now, for some of the systems, there is no data. So ideally it should show "NO DATA" as a background image. However, the cell remains BLANK. It doesn't show the "NO DATA" image. It remains BLANK only.

I am not sure why the grouping is not working correctly for NoDataMessageproperty. 

Can someone try this out & let me know if it works for you? 


Deleting HTTPS Reporting Services URLs

$

0

Hi,

I've got a perfectly working SSRS 2014 instance. Reports are working and the only problem is the URL is in HTTPS. My application accessing the reports cannot do so over HTTPS.

While I have the HTTPS bindings in place accessing this (which the application does)

http://newserver:80/ReportServer_SERVICEMANAGER/ReportService2005.asmx

doesn't work due to the "site requiring a HTTPS" connection. Simply editing that URL to https and port 443 doesn't help and that doesn't open up in in Internet Explorer.

Regardless if I delete the HTTPS URLs in Reporting Services Configuration Manager or not, the HTTP Web Service and Report manager URLs don't work. But if I delete the HTTPS bindings then my application can access the ReportService2005.asmx but because the reports don't work on the actual web service URL, that doesn't help.

How can I get the HTTP URLs to work?

cells growing horizontally

hi we run 2012 enterprise. Does ssrs have a feature that would allow cells to grow horizontally based on need?  Or do I need to drag them manually till they appear big enough to handle largest current value or play with font and expressions based on length of value?

Cannot update SSL certificate for SQL 2k8 R2 SSRS

$

We have a SSL certificate bound to 443 for the Web Service URL.  It's going to expire in a month.  So I attempted to change the bindings to use a new certificate.  I get the following error and details:

Create certificate binding.
We were unable to create the certificate binding.

Reserving url https://+:443
The url was successfully reserved.

Microsoft.ReportingServices.WmiProvider.WMIProviderException: An SSL binding already exists for the specified IP address and port combination.  The existing binding uses a different certificate from the current request. Only one certificate can be used for each IP address and port combination. To correct the problem, either use the same certificate as the existing binding, or remove the existing SSL binding and create a new binding using the certificate of the current request.

 ---> System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x80040238): Exception from HRESULT: 0x80040238
   --- End of inner exception stack trace ---
   at Microsoft.ReportingServices.WmiProvider.RSWmiAdmin.ThrowOnError(ManagementBaseObject mo)
   at Microsoft.ReportingServices.WmiProvider.RSWmiAdmin.CreateSSLCertificateBinding(String application, String certificateHash, String ipAddress, Int32 port)
   at ReportServicesConfigUI.WMIProvider.RSReportServerAdmin.CreateSSLCertificateBinding(UrlApplication app, String certificateHash, String ipAddress, Int32 port)

I tried several different attempts including unbinding port 443 altogether and the same error occurs.  I am able to roll back to the original certificate.

Insert a Row in Tablix with null values

$

I have an interesting one here. In my report results I am missing a day (10/9/2016) because of Hurricane Matthew. We did not have any trucks delivering that day so therefore my query results omit that day from the table. My dataset is using a view from the database and I do not have an option of entering an invoice in the system with a delivery date of 10/9/2016 with null values. What I would like to do is insert a row for 10/9/2016 and display null or 0 in the columns at runtime. Any suggestions?

SSRS Shared Data Source - Connection Type XML - HTTP vs HTTPS?

$

For Data Source Connection Type XML -

Should we use HTTPS instead of HTTP for the web service in the Connection String? We were able to get the XML connection to work using HTTP, however, we are thinking we should use HTTPS, but we have not been successful.

Any thoughts? Figured I would check with the Forum to see if anyone else sees the need and better yet, if they have it working.

Thanks!

greenbar effect not quite working

Hi we run 2012 enterprise. I followed the example at http://selectstatements.blogspot.com/2013/01/alternating-row-background-colors-in.html on my report which has 5 row groups and two column groups.  The green bar effect is great till I expand my left most row group.  The summary lines that show all retain the background color that was on the row group before expansion.  And the same holds true for every level beneath that.  Is there a dependable way to make this effect work on my tablix? 

SQL 2005 - Service Unavailable when Accessing ReportServer - UNRESOLVED

Hi All,

I attempted to migrate the RDL files from SQL 2005 Reporting Services to SQL 2014 Reporting Services using ReportSync tool. However, when I try opening http://SQL2005/ReportServer I receive an error:Service Unavailable.

  1. The SQL 2005 Reporting Services are running on the SQL2005 server
  2. SQL 2005 SSRS successfully serve SCCM 2007 which is installed on the same server http://SQL2005/SMSReporting_AAA/


Question:

  1. What is the functioning address of the SQL 2005 ReportServer in order to populate the ReportSync tool?

Many thanks, in advance!




SSRS 2016 Web Portal Hidden Reports

Is there any way to really hide the hidden reports and the View Option in the Web Portal?

I have hidden reports in previous versions of SSRS that the users could not see but they can see and access them in SSRS 2016.

Getting "Provider load failure" from SSRS Configuration Manager (SQL 2008 R2 Hot Fix CU3 did not fix the problem)

$

After upgrading our SQL 2008 cluster to R2, SSRS on one node works fine, but the second node will not allow connection via the Configuration Manager (getting "Provider load failure").  We've done re-installs, repairs and applied Hot Fix CU3, but the issue remains.

NOTE: It's understood that SSRS is not a clustered resource.  We have it installed as separate instances on each of the two cluster nodes.

Subscribed reports creating empty Excel files

Running reports on SSRS for SQL Server 2008 R2.  I am starting the process of migrating about 200 Crystal Reports from an Infoview environment to the SSRS platform. I can replicate the reports in the Report Builder or BIDS 2008 with few problems, I see data when I run them in the Preview screen.  They work fine when I deploy them to our SSRS server, I see data when I click the links in the SSRS folders.

My problem is that when I set them up with subscriptions either as an emailed Excel or an Excel file written to a Windows file share on our network, the Excel files are empty.  If I click on the report link in the My Subscription screen it works fine, I see the data.  It is just when the subscription runs that the result is an empty Excel file.

I don't think my Subscriptions are set up incorrectly. The setup screen for Subscriptions is pretty fool proof, I choose Excel as the Render Format and check the Include Report checkbox for the email subscriptions and Add a File extension & Overwrite an existing file for the Windows file share ones.

I hope someone can give me an insight into why this is happening.

Error message on implementing CTE in SSRS

$

Hello All,

My Greetings for the day!!!

I have developed a SSRS report in which I have used CTE in the dataset.

The report is working fine and giving expected output. However, my concern is about the error message that I am getting when I click on Query designer on the dataset.

Please check the screen shot attached.

When I click on OK. It further loads the query designer window of the SSRS. When I execute the CTE I get the following error.

Please check the same below.

I would like to know about the behavior of SSRS where it gives errors while using CTE's and works well on the other hand for displaying output. 

Is there any solution to overcome this error.

Please revert with your valuable suggestions.

Kindly find the screen shot of the CTE'code I have used in my report Dataset.

Regards,

Error/Issue SSRS Reports are timing out with no Data Render and no Error Message when using the SharePoint Report Viewer Webpart

Is there a way to increase the timeout to allow for the data to be returned?
the green circle spins around and around but then disappears and nothing is show on the page.

Not sure if there is a way to increase the timeout on the Webpart or if I need to add some code somewhere to allow for an increase in the time out threshold. Or do I need to do this on the SharePoint Server?

grouping across multiple tablix

Hi, I have the following problem.

I have a sales report that contains 10 tablixs, they all have different datasets attached to them.

Now I need to group these 10 on a field which is in all off those datasets (in this case businessUnit).

My question, is this possible without making these 10 reports subreports, which is not really an option for me because of the horrible performance of subreports in SSRS.

Thanks in advance.

Questions about passing data to SSRS

$

Hello,

I am creating a report via Reporting services and want to ask these questions:

  1. Is there a way to pass and parse JSON data to an RDL file? Currently we are using SQL Server 2014 Reporting Services.
  2. Can I open and read XML files via custom code in the Report? (Not through datasource)
  3. Assuming I have XML data as datasource in Reporting Services with below sample format. Is there a way that Reporting Service will be able to iterate through <MainHolder> and <item> nodes?
<PersonalInfo><MainHolder><item>...</item><item>...</item><item>...</item></MainHolder><MainHolder><item>...</item></MainHolder></PersonalInfo>
Any info is appreciated. Thanks a much!
