Hi all,

Have installed SQL 2008 on Windows 2008 and have come across a strange issue.

When connecting to the Report Server cvia SSMS to enable "My Reports" (for example) the Report Server Properties are greyed out and we cannot alter them. This occurs when logged on both locally & remotely to the Win 2008 server.

Interestingly, we have another (XP Pro) box with SQL 2008 on it. If we connect to the Win 2008 SQL report server from the XP machine's SSMS, then we have full control and can access and change the report server properties on the Win 2008 server. 

The relevant domain accounts are in the Admin group on the Win 2008 server and the XP Server so we are confused as to why we cannot edit the Win 2008 report server properties locally.

Any thoughts?

Fala ae galera.

QUESTION: Has anyone used Row Level Security for SSRS 2017 using Custom Authentication (Forms Based) or even aware if this is possible in SSRS 2017?

USE CASE:

I am looking to incorporate SSRS 2017 as the reporting solution for a multi-tenant application, hence we have a need for using row level security (RLS).  It is a custom security model using Forms Based Authentication that leverages the security extension, so incorporating windows integration is not an option (similar to thesolution posted here).  Ideally, there would be a setting in the report (or data source) to set a session_context to be leveraged in the corresponding query, but there is nothing short of writing our own custom Data Processing Extension which theoretically would be using mirroring SQL Server processor but adding a way to set the session context when opening a connection.  Unfortunately there is no extension point that would allow this to be done and those classes are all internal.  While not impossible, it's a good amount of work and requires another maintenance component.

I have some "brute force" approaches in the queue, but ideally would like something similar to the solution that leverages windows integration.

I've set up a Reporting Services Server 2016 in native mode. After that I migrated our SSRS 2008 Reports to the new server. While doing so I added a location based parameter/filter. The values of the parameter come from a shared dataset, that lists our company sites. This dataset represents a table in the SQL server database. Each user that queries data from that table (through accessing the shared dataset in SSRS) get's checked by a Row Level Security policy/function that looks up whether or not a user is member of a specific Active Directory group. Based on that group the parameter in the report (which is based on the dataset) shows different company sites to different people and filters the rest of the data accordingly.

My problem is the following:

I can't seem to creat subscriptions, because the data source for the shared dataset isn't set up to store the credentials of the user. But I can't store the credentials, because I need them to get the group of the user accessing the report.

Is there a solution to this?

I mean, I only need to run the subscription with some service account and configure the parameters myself, so that the user can't acces parameter values he's not allowed to see/use. But I don't think that is a configurable possilbilty. Are there other options to get subscriptions running?

Thanks in advance!

Kind regards,

Chris

EDIT:   

I opened up this suggestion Plz vote for this feature to be developed. See answer to this question-thread below.

https://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/feedback/details/3141155

I have an SSRS report with a subreport where the subreport will display at the start of the report, but then stop after a number of pages (not the same for different parameters) for the rest of the report. Both are reports that use sprocs as the basis for the report. When I run the sproc in SQL with the parameters, it works. It is like I am hitting a memory limit.

An example report has 129 pages and it works for the first 109 pages. A 12 page report works fine. I have another 770 page that stops working on Page 6. 

I have SQL Server 2016, using Report Builder 3. 

I would appreciate any assistance. 

Hi guys,

What I want to do is have a matrix that looks something like this 

                 Jan Feb March

Person A    1 ↑2 ↑  3 ↑

Person B    2 ↑2 ↔ 2 ↔

Person C    3 ↑2 ↓ 1 ↓

So basically it checks the previous months value and uses that to determine which indicator to use ?

Thanks

Curt 

Need some help in figuring out this issue.

The report I am trying to run returns over 14 million records when I get a count directly from the SQL server but I get an error after the report runs for a while. Below is the error message. Does SSRS have a limitation on the number of records? When I look at the memory utilization, it was at 79% utilization. Below is the server setup. Am not sure what else I can do to resolve this.

I have an Office 365 SharePoint Site that has an Access App.  I'm using a copy of that Apps' Access DB to run SSRS reports against.   I want to add a parameter to my report's Data Set to but can't figure out how to add it.  The normal =@Parameters that would be used  against a SQL Server DB doesn't seem to apply.

Can you define a parameter against Access tables in SSRS Data Sets?  If so how?

I tried adding a parameter to an Access Query and it works fine in Access but I if I use the Query in SSRS and reference it like you would a Function or SP, Query(@Parameter), I get an error .  If I don't put (@Parameter) I get the too few parameters expected error. 

Thanks,

Hi,

I have .rdl file designed from SSRS residing in my local disk. I want my windows C# application to access this file and display this report. 

There is no report server in my case. so the solution in http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en/sqlreportingservices/thread/6f9ef1d8-529b-4c01-8b50-2948314052da did not work for me.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks!

Dear sir/madam i m getting error msg from vb code

An attempt was made to set credentials for a data source 'Lstock_Report_V' associated with the report.  Report data source settings are specified in a way that prevents credentials from being submitted to the report server. (rsDataSourceNoPrompt)

Hi Guys, I am submitting a little problem I am unable to solve. Maybe it will help somebody in the future..

I am working with BIDS 2008 and Dynamics CRM 2011.

I just developed a FetchXML-based report (client requirement). Also, I usedexpressions as my dataset queries, such as:

= IIf(Parameters!strLob.Label = "Consulting","<fetch version='1.0' output-format='xml-platform' mapping='logical' distinct='true'><entity name='opportunity'><attribute name='mcs_internalreferrer' /><order attribute='mcs_internalreferrer' descending='false' /><link-entity name='mcs_lob' from='mcs_lobid' to='mcs_lobid' visible='false' alias='lob'><attribute name='mcs_name' /><!-- lob_mcs_name --><filter type='and'><condition attribute='mcs_name' operator='eq' value='Consulting' /></filter></link-entity><filter type='and'><condition attribute='mcs_internalreferrer' operator='not-null' /></filter></entity></fetch>","<fetch version='1.0' output-format='xml-platform' mapping='logical' distinct='true'><entity name='mcs_option'><attribute name='mcs_key' alias='mcs_internalreferrerValue'/><attribute name='mcs_value' alias='mcs_internalreferrer'/><filter type='and'><condition attribute='mcs_key' operator='eq' value='reports_param_na' /></filter></entity></fetch>"
)

The purpose is to return a dummy value (2nd query) instead of the normal values (1st query), depending on the parameter value.

Everything works fine in Visual Studio's preview mode. I can see and use values from both queries.

But for some reason, when trying to deploy this report in Dynamics, I get anMalformed FetchXML error (details below). Indeed, when I replace the expression with a normal FetchXML value, the report deploys fine. Actually, I can put any valid FetchXML, even if it makes no sense in my reporting context, it deploys! So really the problem is the expressions, that are not recognized as valid XML.

Any Idea how I could make Dynamics accept my expression-based datasets?

Here is the error log:

Hi all,

I have a report with 2 groups:

- Pick slip header
- Pick slip lines

I display my pick slip header fields in the same columns as my detail lines (see image). 

The last row within my Pick slip header rows is a static row (see highlighted row in image) that works as a header for detail rows. 

I would like to display my static row on each page but not all rows in the header group. 

Is this possible?

Thanks for reading,

Clay

Hi,

I have created a basic data set which contains text and numbers. I am trying to add the dataset into table. For some reason all the columns are not getting displayed.

Below is the screenshot:

Below is the dataset:

I am creating the table using the Table Wizard. I select the data set, add all the columns to the Values. Makes sure all are just Fields!.<ColumnName>.Value

I guess it should display the data set as its a very simple one.

Thanks, Rajiv Iyer

Dear All,

I have created SSRS Report and in the header i have added text boxes that show the parameters the users have selected.

My question , not sure even if this is doable. I have a start date and end date. When the user selects the values for the start and end date, the report shows the count of records in that date range. How can i show this count in the header?

Thanks

There is a kind of scenario that users want to download the receptive brochures or training document which is stored in server as  C:/SolutionName/File  . I need to download the file .

But if i use ="javascript:void(window.open('" & "file://C:/XYZABC_Attachments/XYZABC.xlsx" & "','_blank'))" . It gives an error 

VM8623:1 Not allowed to load local resource: file:///D:/XYZABC_Attachments/XYZABC.xlsx 

But i can download the file , by hitting the URL in the  browser directly : file:///D:/XYZABC_Attachments/XYZABC.xlsx 

I have also tried using Code but it dosent help , due to issue in HTTPResponse .

Following is the code i have used for Code in Report properties:

Function DownloadFile(ByVal fname As String, ByVal forceDownload As Boolean)

        Dim Request As System.Web.HttpRequest 

Dim path As String = fname
    Dim name As String = System.IO.Path.GetFileName(path)
    Dim ext As String = System.IO.Path.GetExtension(path)
    Dim type As String = ""

    If ext IsNot Nothing Then

        Select Case ext.ToLower()
            Case ".htm", ".html"
                type = "text/HTML"
            Case ".txt"
                type = "text/plain"
            Case ".docx"
                type = "application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document"
            Case ".doc"
                type = "Application/msword"
            Case ".rtf"
                type = "application/rtf"
            Case ".png"
                type = "image/png"
            Case ".jpg", ".jpeg"
                type = "image/png"
            Case ".bmp"
                type = "image/bmp"
            Case ".gif"
                type = "image/gif"
            Case ".tif", ".tiff"
                type = "image/tiff"
            Case ".pdf"
                type = "application/pdf"

                type = "application/xml"
            Case Else
                type = "application/octet-stream"
        End Select
    End If

    If forceDownload Then
        response.AppendHeader("content-disposition", "attachment; filename=" & name)
    End If

    If type <> "" Then response.ContentType = type
    response.WriteFile(path)
    response.[End]()
End Function

I have been searching options for this from quite a while . 

I am new to SSRS Reporting 2008 and most of the reports I have developed required to export to Excel. This reports are embedded into ASP.NET, developed in C#. Now there is some questions I would like to ask:

1) When I am exporting to Excel, I would like to insert some comment in the some cells in the Excel (comment like where you see a red dot in each cell in Excel, and when mouse over you can see comment of this cell)

2) Is there anyway to put a filter to the header after export to Excel?
