HTTP: 401 Unauthorized When Trying To Use Reporting Services And MOSS2007 In Integrated Mode
Feb 28, 2007
Sorry for the long post, but I'm trying to include as much info as possible.
I'm having trouble getting SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services and MOSS 2007 working together in integrated mode. Everything seems to be ok, but we get a 'HTTP 401 Unauthorized' error when using the 'Set server defaults' link from MOSS 2007 Central Administration. None of the other links give this error, but I'm not sure whether MOSS just eats the error message...
Here's the background:
Sql Server 2005 is installed on a separate box, let's call it SERVER1. This Sql Server hosts both the MOSS content database as well as the reporting services database.MOSS 2007 is installed on a different box, let's call it SERVER2I've installed all the required components for both boxes with no installation errorsSSRS seems to be running fine on SERVER1. Report Manager can be used directly with a browser in native mode.SSRS also *seems* to be running fine in Integrated mode, i.e. I can create a reporting database for integrated mode:
The url http://host/ReportService/ReportService2006.asmx responds normally when I access it through browser using my domain credentialsThe url http://host/Reports/ returns a message saying that I can't access it in integrated mode, which, I take, is normal
MOSS is running ok on SERVER2
I can see that SERVER1 is in the same farm after I've installed WSS3.0 on SERVER1Also I can see the "Reporting Services" section in Central Administration
So all in all, everything seems to be ok. However, when I try to use the 'Set server defaults' link from MOSS Central Administration I get an 'HTTP 401 Unauthorized' error. I'm assuming clicking this link will result in MOSS calling the Reporting Services' SOAP endpoint ReportService2006.asmx which now seems to be the culprit. Here's why I think so:
Whenever this occurs, the IIS logs on SERVER2 show that someone from SERVER1 is indeed trying to connect to ReportService2006.asmx, but I'm not seeing any user credentials being passed (whenever I access the asmx through my web browser, the credentials I entered in the browser are recorded in the log). Furthermore, the Event Viewer on SERVER2 shows Audit Failure (code 529) events occurring every time I get the HTTP 401 error.
The Event viewer's message is as follows:
Logon Failure: Reason: Unknown user name or bad password User Name: Domain: Logon Type: 3 Logon Process: Kerberos Authentication Package: Kerberos Workstation Name: - Caller User Name: - Caller Domain: - Caller Logon ID: - Caller Process ID: - Transited Services: - Source Network Address: <SERVER1 IP> Source Port: <PORT>
From the Event Viewer message and the IIS log it would seem like my MOSS is trying anonymous access whenever it tries to access the SSRS SOAP endpoint, which of course results in a 401, since anonymous access is not allowed. Please note that if I enable anonymous access in the Reporting Services' virtual directories (just for testing), I get a different error. This indicates that the HTTP 401 indeed originates from this particular web service call.
I've heard that SPS2003 and Reporting Services don't like each other on the same box, but this is hearsay. Does anyone know if this is a confirmed fact? This box does have SPS2003 and SSRS2005 installed. I tried to uninstall the SPS2003 but that didn't help anymore.
I noticed someone having similar issues in another thread, but I
didn't see resolutions. I'm pretty baffled as to whether
this is a problem with the MOSS Add-in or the Reporting Services
installation.
Any input on this issue is very much appreciated. I'll try to also include a follow-up if we're able to get this working ourselves.
I have deployed the reports to the report server(centralized server). when i try to access the reports directly thru report server i.e http://servername//ReportServer in my local system. it asks for the username/password, when i give the username and password it accepts and shows me the report.
the same report i try to access in .NET Application, i do not know how to pass the credentials and it throws the error :"The request failed with HTTP status 401: Unauthorized ".
I am using VS 2005 and SQL Server 2005 and SQL Reporting Services 2005.
We are using SharePoint 2010 integrated with Reporting Services 2008 R2. We have successfully configured RS and we are able to create RDL reports using Report Builder from the SharePoint site.
However we are getting following error message when we host same RDL report using Report Viewer control in an application page i.e. ASPX page:
<ERROR>The request failed with HTTP status 401: Unauthorized</ERROR>
We can fix this issue by setting:
1) setting impersonation to false in web.config file:
<identity impersonate="false" />
2) Setting Report server URL to _vti_bin path:
rptViewer.ServerReport.ReportServerUrl = new Uri("http://sharepointserver:1000/_vti_bin/reportserver");
If we turn impersonation to true we get the same error. Other project module requires impersonation to be enabled. Hence we cannot proceed further with this work around/fix.
We have started to use reporting services in integrated mode with windows sharepoint. Since this installation the drillthrough reports have stopped working. We get the following error when a hyperlink is cllicked:-
The item 'http://vtrends/reports/IslandRegionCountryState' cannot be found. (rsItemNotFound)
In the textbox properties we have set the 'Jump to Report' hyperlink option to use a condition. Based on the link clicked, one of two reports will be displayed. If i remove this condition and manually select the report to run then there are no problems. This however is not the functionality that is needed. Any help will be appreciated.
I am trying to follow the instructions on: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb677365.aspx they contain many "if"s and links to other sites and I got totally confused and stuck. The idea is - I need to have one machine with SQL for reporting services and SharePoint databases and the reporting services and the other machine for a complete SharePoint installation (the main server of the farm)
Now I have done the following: two servers (lets call them SQL and MOSS)
The domain contains the following users: sqlservices: for running all the SQL services and reporting services moss: for administering MOSS databases moss-services: for running all the MOSS services Machine SQL - installed Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition SP1, joined to the domain as SQL The following is done from a local Administrator account: IIS 6 with ASP.NET installed SQL Server 2005 with SP2, Reporting services installed but not configured all the services are running as domainsqlservices .NET 3.0 installed http://support.microsoft.com/kb/918642 fix installed done WINDOWSMicrosoft.NETFrameworkv2.0.50727aspnet_regiis €“i MOSS as Web Front installed, not configured
Machine MOSS - installed Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition SP1, joined to the domain as MOSS The following is done from a local Administrator account: IIS 6 with ASP.NET installed .NET 3.0 installed http://support.microsoft.com/kb/918642 fix installed done WINDOWSMicrosoft.NETFrameworkv2.0.50727aspnet_regiis €“i Computers->My computer->DCOM Config->IIS WAMREG admin Service->PropertiesSecurity->Customize->Edit, added domainmoss-services and domainMOSS users with rights Local launch, Local activate MOSS Complete installed, configured for: New server farm Database server: SQL Username: domainMOSS Port: Default Auth: NTLM SharePointRS.msi installed to enable RS in SharePoint Admin page Then temporarily gave to the user domainMOSS sysadmin rights in the SQL server on the SQL machine to avoid errors with creating databases while configuring SharePoint from the Admin Portal. From the Admin Portal configured Office SharePoint Server Search with domainmoss-services account Shared Services Administration €“ New SSP created with 2 separate web apps for SSP and MySites, both app pools run as domainmoss-services and SSP itself runs as domainmoss-services Windows SharePoint Services Search configured, Service Account - domainmoss-services, Content Access Account - domainmoss-services
Everything went OK.
Now came back to the machine SQL: run Reporting Services Configuration and: Report Server Virtual Directory €“ created new, called it ReportServer. When hit Apply, the applicatin suddenly quit, but I checked €“ the Virtual Directory was registered on the IIS and working. Checked if Windows service identity is domainsqlservices, OK. Web service identity: Application Pool: New Name: ReportServer Windows Account: domainsqlservices Apply, everything went fine.
Database setup: choose server SQL, Connect Database name: New name: ReportServer, checked Create the report server database in SharePoint Integrated Mode OK Credeantials Type - Service credentials (I guess it means previously set domainsqlservices will be used) Apply,OK, everything went fine.
Launch SharePoint Products and Technologies Configuration Wizard, Connect to an existing farm, Database server: SQL, Retrieve datbase names: selected SharePoint_Config, Username: domainMOSS, Next, everything fine here.
Now as far as I understand I need to give reporting services an access to SharePoint databases? Went to the machine MOSS, launched SharePoint 3.0 Central Administration:
Application Management-> Reporting Services-> Manage integration settings, URL: http://SQL/reportserver, Windows Authentification, OK then back, Grant database access-> Server Name: SQL, OK, now it is asking for credentials. And now the problem: no matter what I enter (domainsqlservices, domainMOSS) I get a message: €žA connection to the computer cannot be established€?. Why, why, why? I can ping the server, SharePoint services are running fine and they are using the SQL server on the SQL machine and there are no errors in the event viewer (they should be if there were any problems to connect the SQL databases). If I enter wrong credentials, I receive "Unable to log on with the given username and password.", so I guess there IS a connection to the computer (or how else could SharePoint determne that login is wrong?).
Also, if I open http://SQL/reportserver, I get €žThe report server has encountered a configuration error€? and the log in C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.2Reporting ServicesLogFiles says €žSharePoint content service is null. Report Server may not have joined the SharePoint farm, or Report Server service account may not have been granted access to farm.€? I guess it is OK while I have not granted access to the SharePoint databases? Please, show me, what did I do so wrong that €žA connection to the computer cannot be established€?? How can I grant the access and finalize configuring Reporting Services? Thanks.
We have a Report Server integrated with SharePoint. A month ago we deployed a report (rdl file) in SharePoint, but the person who deployed it was no longer connected with us. So we decided to deactivate it in our Active Directory. Yesterday, our users returned issues regarding they are unable to access their report. I believe the issue was "object reference not set to an instance of an object".
So I tried to download the rdl file and redeployed it but i am getting error upon deploying to SharePoint. My workaround is to delete the rdl file in SharePoint, redeploy the shared datasource and shared datasets and the rdl file. It went and was now able to run the report in SharePoint.
Is there something relation/happened when deactivating the account in AD that users unable to access the report in SharePoint?
Well, I have SQL Server 2005 SP2 Reporting Services installed and configured in sharepoint integrated mode, so I am deploying reports in sharepoint libraries. Also I configured sharepoint to use forms authentication with builtin AspNetSqlMembership provider, but after this action I couldnot open reports through sharepoint library, instead of this, error was displayed mentioned below. I searched and found hotfix Cumulative Update 3 build 3186 for this issue, request it from microsoft support and applied it, but nothing has changed!
Error I have been experiencing is following:
An unexpected error occurred while connecting to the report server. Verify that the report server is available and configured for SharePoint integrated mode. --> The request failed with the error message: -- <html><head><title>Object moved</title></head><body> <h2>Object moved to <a href="/_layouts/login.aspx?ReturnUrl= %2f_vti_bin %2fReportServer%2fReportService2006.asmx">here</a>.</h2> </body></html>
I continued to dig and find out that this hotfix should update Microsoft.ReportingServices.SharePoint.UI.WebParts.dll from version 9.0.3042.0 to new version 9.0.3180.0, but when I checked file version after applying hotfix, it remained the same as was before i.e. 9.0.3042.0. Apparently this cumulative update does not fix this issue. anyone has any idea how to solve it? Thanks in advance.
i have created an report which retrieve data from table which contains a datetime field. The data of that particular field is stored in UTC time. when i navigating the report from sharepoint site i wish the datetime field will be converted into local time based on the selected timezone of the user.
issue where SSRS reports being executed from a report library in SharePoint intermittently are reloaded after hitting the apply button to run. Â We are using SSRS 2010 and SharePoint 2013 in integrated mode. So a user clicks on the report, fills in the parameters and hits apply. Maybe 70% of the time the report runs fine. Â The other 30% the report just reloads and wipes out any parameter selections. We do have a load balancer in front of the web servers.
I've ran fiddler to capture some of the error logging.
Things we have tried. Multiple versions of IE 8,9,10,11, Firefox, Chrome. Â All browsers seem to exhibit the behavior.
We ran so more traffic monitoring and it doesn't appear on these refreshes that report actually connects to the data context so it seems to be failing prior to that. (Possibly at the SharePoint server. Logging from the server apparently didn't show much in terms of when this occurred) It doesn't seem to matter if the report has 1 or 10 parameters.Â
We did notice that when we took the load balancer out of the equation and just hit the web server directly, the refreshes "appeared" to decrease in regularity but still occur.Also, the reports do not exhibit the refresh issue when running locally within Visual Studio 2013.
We have SSRS reports (pointing to SQL 2012) containing cascading parameters that we have deployed on SharePoint 2013 and once a user makes a selection to the parent parameter, child parameters are getting refreshed based on the selection in the parent parameter and then we see this:
Once we hit Apply, the Loading image comes up and approximately10 seconds later, The whole webpage gets refreshed and the parameter selections get reset to default parameters.Â
This is getting frustrating because there are about 10 parameters in the report and once a user makes selections and hit apply if the page gets reset, the user has to make all the selections again.
We are working with Microsoft support on this who suggested us to increase the timeout setting of DistributedCache service on all our SharePoint servers which did seem to work initially but I do see this issue happening occasionally.
I have congigured Reporting Service for Sharepoint Integrated Mode adn Created new Reprot Server DB
Sahre Point Integration is Green and verified link
In Sharepoint Central Administration
Manage Reporting Service Integratio i have selected the URL and "Trusted Account" as my web applications use "Windows Integration - NTLM".
All services, DB access everything running under one domain user account.
I am logged into sharepoint with same account. When clieck on set server defaults i get following error
An unexpected error occurred while connecting to the report server. Verify that the report server is available and configured for SharePoint integrated mode. --> Server was unable to process request. ---> The request failed with HTTP status 401: Unauthorized.
Same error when i try to add a report to a sharepoint webapplication
The domain account is part of "Farm Administration", "site colletion administrato" and local administrator also on both servers.
I looked online and couldn't find anything to help me make this change. I want to change the default URL for reporting services to another url. Is this possible? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
We have built a .NET on SQL Server application with extensive business functionality and security. It uses SQL integrated security to control logon and access to the database objects. There is business logic built into the .NET code, so I don€™t want any chance that users access the tables directly through a tool such as Management Studio - many users need update, delete, insert on tables in order to use the applications functions. With integrated security they can logon through SQL Management Studio and change data in the tables directly.
How are people who are using integrated security for their business applications preventing logons through unauthorized tools or applications?
We have reports in SharePoint integrated mode which are really slow when compared to native mode. I have been asked to research and give info on what exactly causes the delays.
Any articles which give me information as to what happens when a report is run from SharePoint server and where does it log.
Other postings I know have asked about this error message, but none has quite been my particular experience.
Using Visual Studio 2005 I have developed an aspx (.NET 2.0) web page, which has embedded in it, a Report Viewer object. Clicking a button calls the Reporting Services report and populates the Report Viewer object. This web-page works fine when run from Visual Studio.
Once deployed to the Web Server however, the web page produces the 401 error message.
I can also run the report fine, when running it directly from the Reporting Services Report Manager, so I know I have the proper permissions on RS itself - it fails only when I try calling the report from the ASP page.
I am getting the mentioned error: The request failed with HTTP status 401: Unauthorized, when i tried to call ReportingService2005 reference in my IIS web project.
Below is my code:
string strReport;
string strRptUrl;
string strFormat;
string strFormatCode;
ReportingService2005 rs = new ReportingService2005();
// Pass Windows Authentication credentials to Web Service
I have deployed the reports to the report server(centralized server). when i try to access the reports directly thru report server i.e http://servername//ReportServer in my local system. it asks for the username/password, when i give the username and password it accepts and shows me the report.
the same report i try to access in .NET Application, i do not know how to pass the credentials and it throws the error :"The request failed with HTTP status 401: Unauthorized ".
I am using VS 2005 and SQL Server 2005 and SQL Reporting Services 2005.
Hi, can anyone help with this pls - it's getting very fustrating! there seems to be some messages and text on this issue (looks like a common problem that MS haven't published anything about yet!) but nothing I could make heads or tails off... so any help here would be very useful!
I'm using VS2005 (release, NOT beta), the new reportviewer web control and an ASP.NET page - really basic, nothing fancy. I've set the reportviewer properties to:
I'm testing the ASP.NET page is on my local machine - and the reportviewer is connecting to a remote test server (W2k3 SP1). When I view the page, then I get
HTTP ERROR 401 Unauthorized
Directory Security on the report server is Windows Authentication - W2K3 with SP1 and Reporting Services 2005 (release, NOT beta)
Directory Security on my local machine is Windows Authentication - XP SP2 and VS2005 (release, NOT beta)
I am using report viewer in my asp.net application When i try to access the reportserver page in my application i get this error The request failed with HTTP status 401: Unauthorized
My webserver and the Sql server are in different computers.. The Report Server is been installed in the Webserver but in the database set up its talking to the sql server computer.. I have tried giving credentials in the webconfig file but i get the above error..
I have programmatically deploy SQL server Reporting Services 2005 reports via msi file. The installation was success, I was able to run the reports on localhostReports at the target machine. But I get error "The request failed with HTTP status 401: Unauthorized." when I try to access it from the ASP.NET app report menu in the target machine.
It is Windows Server 2003 standard edition, it uses Windows Authentication. I have tried setting any combination below and still doesn't work. Anybody has any other ideas?
ReportingService2005 rs = new ReportingService2005();
rs.UseDefaultCredentials = true; rs.PreAuthenticate = true; rs.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials; or rs.Credentials = new System.Net.NetworkCredential("Admin", "psw");
We built our prod server [vm] with SQL Server 2008 R2 on Server 2008 R2. It works nicely. Then we made a copy of the VM and renamed it (so our test environment would be IDENTICAL to production). After that, SSRS was broken: I get "HTTP Error 503. The service is unavailable." I can't connect via http, or SSMS.
We have tried:
*Â Running SSRS config tool (several times)
* Running with/without the IIS Server Role
*Â Dropping & recreating the SSRS keys
*Â Recreating the ReportServer database, etc
*Â Checking all of the accounts, permissions, etc
*Â Running SQL Repair
*Â Going through the registry to fix any references to the machine's old name
*Â Uninstalling, reinstalling SSRS
* Completely uninstalling ALL of the parts of SQL Server 2008 R2, deleting all directories, removing references to SQL Server from the registry, rebooting, reinstalling everything.
None of this has worked. SSRS [R2] is still 503 on our test box.
the SSRS [NT] service seems to run, without error. The Event Viewer doesn't seem to be recording any errors. The SSRS logs say that the default URL is wrong, but we get the same error in Prod, and Prod works fine. The other SQL Logs say something about not being able to contact the service. However, as I said, the [NT] service seems to be working fine.
Hello, I am trying to schedule a report using the ReportingService2005 web service. It works in my local machine, but as soon as I deploy my web app to a server I get this exception:
System.Net.WebException: The request failed with HTTP status 401: Unauthorized. at System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapHttpClientProtocol.ReadResponse(SoapClientMessage message, WebResponse response, Stream responseStream, Boolean asyncCall) at System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapHttpClientProtocol.Invoke(String methodName, Object[] parameters) at ReportService.ReportingService2005.GetSubscriptionProperties(String SubscriptionID, ExtensionSettings& ExtensionSettings, String& Description, ActiveState& Active, String& Status, String& EventType, String& MatchData, ParameterValue[]& Parameters) at ReportScheduling.SaveSubscription(String SubscriptionID, String ReportName, Int32 ReportID) at ReportScheduling.ScheduleReport()
I see that a lot of people are having the same problem but no solutions are given, Answers like "use the default credentials" . Or "pass a user name and a password" are not doing anything. This has got to be a machine setting. Can anyone share the specific fix? Sad that this is not in Microsoft's standard documentation or MSDN. Very frustating.
I have a report server set up to use SSL and Basic authentication. I am trying to create an application that uses the ReportService2005 web service. I can add the web reference ok, but when I try to use it to list reports, I get the "The request failed with HTTP status 401: Unauthorized." error.
What steps do I need to take to get the authentication to work correctly? I have kerberos configured for the server, although I don't think that would matter here.
I am using SQL Server Reporting. All reports are deployed on REPORTING SERVER. I want to implement security roles as same as in Active directory. Currently reports are being accessed using Anonymous user setting in IIS. I have added users in SQL Server security as well as data base level. But when user accesses report following error occurs: The request failed with HTTP status 401: Unauthorized
Please reply with solution as soon as possible. I will be very thankful to you
I am using .net 2005 as front end and Sql Server 2005 as backend, as i face the problem on client side when i installed my software it works properly but after some time i face this error "HTTP Error 401.2 - Unauthorized: Access is denied due to server configuration. Internet Information Services (IIS)" Also some time it shows me all records. Some time it disconnect the database connection so i can not understand why it happens like this, if somebody know then please help me out this bug.
Hi, I am in the process of moving reportserver and reportmanager from one server to another due to upgrade. SQL Server remains in the same place. I am getting the above error when trying to conenct to my reportmanger https://reportshare.thegmcgroup.local/reports I have SSL set up using SELFSSL.exe I can access the lisy of report vis https://reportshare.thegmcgroup.local/reportserver BUT get the error when trying the previous URL
Any ideas?
SQL Server 2005 Windows 2003 Server All SP added and up to date.
After searching the SQL reporting services forum for a while, I decided to lay this problem before you. I am faced with the following problem: I want to generate a report containing video data, this videodata is streamed into a SQL 2005 database. The main question I have is whether it is at all possible to show moving images in an report? (for instance with a CRI?) Or should I look in another direction (I initially thought of an external link to HTML file with an MediaPlayer Object and having the file stored on a harddisk for instance?) Any help on this subject would be greatly appreciated!
Is there a development environment for Reporting Services (2005) that is integrated with source control?
You can use Visual Studio to develop reports and place them under source control. But as far as I can tell, you cannot implement security, scheduling, etc. through Visual Studio. For these you can use a second environment, e.g. SQL Server Management Studio - but is this environment integrated with TFS?
In other words, is there a single development environment, integrated with TFS, where you can develop all aspects of Reporting Services reports?
I know that another thread dealt with this error message before but after trying all the suggestions of that thread without success, I thought my problem may be different.
I have SSRS 2005 installed on my local machine (TAH112) and it worked flawlessly for months. Suddenly it stopped working today. The Reporting Services Configuration tool shows everything is normal (green buttons all the way except for encryption keys button that is blue and Execution Account button that is yellow).
When I try to connect to the server with SSMS, I got the following error:
