I'm running SQL Enterprise 2017 on MSSvr 2016 Standard Edition.    I'm an administrator on the box.  I know the account the SSRS is running under.  I've been using SSRS Report Builder successfully for a few years now. 

However, suddenly (without changes to site security or groups within SSRS), I can create and delete reports using Report Builder 3.0, but I cannot edit.  The precise error is:  "The value of Action was not recognized.  Valid values are:  New, Edit."  And then it opens up the blank report screen and not the rdl definition associated with the report.  If I remote to the server and try to edit the report, it works fine.  So, I believe it's the permissions granted for a remote connection.

There have been a few changes on the Network enabling single-sign-on authentication, but I'm unclear if that has affected this separate server or not. 

Any help appreciated, Janet

Does the Report Designer control for Visual Studio 2017 support the usage of SSRS 2016 KPIs for RDLC reports?

Thanks!

We have an SSrS report that has a tablix cell with a textbox that is a hyperlink to another SSrS report.  We pass parameters to the report using the textbox properties>Action set to "Go to report" and setting the parameters to the value of a field and a parameter as shown below.  We want to set action to "Go to URL" and to pass these variable parameter values in the URL.  How is that done?  How would that be coded, say if the url ishttps://my.reports.com/ssrs/newreport?  Thanks for the help.

Hi,

I'm using 2 charts on my report, one line chart and one pie chart

Found a bug on SSRS related to chart. it's duplicating chart, the 2nd chart appears below the 1st chart

After some research on the internet, i found out that it can be resolved by using tablix under the chart. It works!

-

Got another problem: that is the 2nd chart (pie chart) size resized to the same width with the 1st chart (line chart).

-

Is there any way to resolve this? I'm thinking to use sub report, but i prefer to avoid that if possible.

Thanks,

Hi Guys,

I found a bug in SSRS Mobile Report. I have a IndicatorDataGrid and that data grid is pointing to a Dataset (SQL Server) called KPIbyIncident. If I add a new column called EmployName to dataset "KPIbyIncident" and click on "Refresh all data" option , I can see that newly added column comes to the display pane but It does not appear to "IndicatorDataGrid" data grid columns. It only appears when I select different dataset in data for the grid view and then again change it back to previous one.

I don't want to do this because I have more than 30 columns selected in this IndicatorDataGrid and each has separate setting and custom name. If I point this to different dataset and then again point it back to the one  it was setup, I lose all the settings.

Thanks Shiven:) If Answer is Helpful, Please Vote

Hi,

I am getting string in format dd/mm/yyyy. In SSRS i want to convert it to Date format. Error is shown if using CDATE.

Note: If date is in mm/dd/yyyy format than SSRS is easily converting.

Hi,

I have all values as 0.0000 & 0 in two columns A & B. Below expression gives me #error still.

=IIF(ABS(SUM(Fields!A.Value))=0.0000 OR IsNothing(SUM(Fields!A.Value)) OR ABS(SUM(Fields!A.Value))=0, 0 ,((ABS(SUM(Fields!A.Value)))-(ABS(SUM(Fields!B.Value))))/ (ABS(SUM(Fields!A.Value))))

Values i have When i put expression as ABS(SUM(Fields!B.Value)) =0 &ABS(SUM(Fields!A.Value))=0.0000

Please suggest. thanks in advance.

I'm having servere issues with our SSRS. We decided today to change our Admin password over the weekend, this has have the effect of locking me out of our SSRS. Unfortunately we don't have a backup of the Encryption keys either.....

So i'm resigned to deleting all encrypted content. however that isn't working either, i get the following message whatever i try to do.

Microsoft.ReportingServices.WmiProvider.WMIProviderException: Value cannot be null.
Parameter name: key
   at Microsoft.ReportingServices.WmiProvider.RSWmiAdmin.ThrowOnError(ManagementBaseObject mo)
   at Microsoft.ReportingServices.WmiProvider.RSWmiAdmin.DeleteEncryptedInformation()
   at ReportServicesConfigUI.WMIProvider.RSReportServerAdmin.DeleteEncryptedInformation()

I have tried the fixes in the following thread, none of these have worked. I have also deleted the key directly from the ReportServer database following this thread that didn't work either. I really don't want to create a new ReportServer instance, however i fear i'm heading that way.

Anyone have anything else i could try?

Many Thanks

Scotty.

I have a field with date format mm/dd/<g class="gr_ gr_31 gr-alert gr_spell gr_inline_cards gr_run_anim ContextualSpelling" data-gr-id="31" id="31">yyyy</g>, stored as varchar (not my doing, but have to make it work). I have figured out how to return data based on formatting the BookIn_Date field within Dataset Properties / Filters, see images 1 and 2.

This will be an ongoing report published monthly for previous month data. Need help with the formulas for FirstDayofMonth and LastDayofMonth. Any help would be appreciated:

Hi,

I have a report with a parameter field that uses a dataset (sql query) to display list of available values.

User is able to select a value from the drop down list and it works great. But the user is not able to type in a value, they have to select value from the list.

Is there a way in SSRS where user can start typing and the drow down list will automatically start filtering the displayed values as user is typing (similar to how the google/bing search engines do it) then select from it?

The SSRS version is 2014 but I am willing to upgrade it to whatever latest version.

Thank you in advance.

I also found some entries in the event viewer:

Hi I have created one drill through report. The functionality is like this I have main report and when I click on value of report that value get passed to drill through report and report displays based on parameter passed.

But now the porblem is if I change the parameter value and click on view report button the reort with updated parameter values doesnt display on report pan. I see old parameter values on screen. Please note that this is multi value parameter.

can some body help me with this issue.

For example

I have created report with parameter Country with multiple values set to true. Through main parameter I am passing America and I get reports based on parameter value America now on second report when I changes the values of country parameter America to Canada it doest get refreshed at all. I get same value in Country parameter.

Hi all,

We've had an unexpected outage on two of our reporting services server overnight and we're hoping someone can point us in the right direction.  We have a Windows Server 2008 machine running about 5 instances of reporting services in standalone, non-IIS mode.

Two of these instances have started hitting exceptions when rendering any reports.  I include an excerpt from the log below.

The first evidence of a problem in the log is an InternalCatalogException, of which I can find many unrelated hits when searching the forums so I don't think this is specific enough to trace.  I do note a reference to "segmentedChunkStore" in the text which seems like a better clue.

I've eliminated the idea of a machine/OS issue due to several instances not affected by this problem.  There is some possibly related info which may help:

-This machine is a HyperV VM which has been moved between hosts within the last few weeks. In the process, all Report Server databases were backed up and restored at the new site.
- It uses a Custom Authentication extension authored by us.
- Within the last few days, users of three RS instances advised that a role permission they had prior to the move (Consume Reports Task) was no longer granted.  I had to re-grant this to the role.  The two RS instances now experiencing the InternalCatalogException issue raised an error at the time about not being able to find a group when I granted the task.  I added the group, granted again, and it granted without error so I thought nothing more of it.
- These two RS instances have been working fine since the HyperV host move right up until last night.
- The machine had several Windows Updates queued up which were installed last night.  Since completion of the updates and subsequent reboot, these two Reporting Services instances now raise this InternalCatalogException error when trying to render any reports from Report Manager, Report Server, or previous from Report Viewer.

At this point, I'm suspecting some sort of data corruption has occurred in the ReportServer databases, initially causing the loss of the Consume Reports permission and, after a reboot, these exeptions. But any suggestions on how to troubleshoot further greatly appreciated. Here is the excerpt from the log.

I have a report which takes around 5 seconds when run in BIDS but takes around 20 seconds when deployed on report server.

Execution log says TimeDataRetrieval is around 3-4 seconds and  rendering time is around 15-17 secs.

From this report I am passing 8 parameters to a  drill through report and there are 36 text boxes where I have defined these parameters for drill through action.All these parameters are populated in main dataset.

When I deployed the same report without any drill through action and parameter, it takes 5 seconds.So I am suspecting that because of drill through parameters report is taking more rendering time on server.

I am using 2008R2 and IE11.

Is it expected behavior that due to so many parameters for drill through action, report will take more rendering time?If yes, then why is it not taking same time in BIDS?Or there can be some other reason which I am missing?

TIA,

when trying to create a subscription I get the following error:

Something went wrong. Please try again later.

I tried multiple settings such as Email vs fileshare, different accounts, etc. No idea of what is going on or how I can troubleshoot this. Any ideas?

Thanks!

I have a parameter where you can just type in text. @Permit.

I then have it as a placeholder in my report to put in text.  My only problem is I would like to include double spacing when it moves to the next line.  I'm trying to use vbCrLf but not sure how to include it with a parameter?
