Can any one tell me how to do this.
Thanks in advance..
Hi,
I'm in the process of designing a system which will have a central internet based SQL Server database, and one or more clients running SQL CE.
If there is more than one client machine running the same software, is it possible to have all these clients use a central SQL CE db on one of the clients? In other words can other machines access a SQL CE running on say a "master" machine? These machines my be in a workgroup or on a domain by the way.
I know I could use a SQL Express db on the master machine, but I'm keen to use SQL CE because of the Sync services dlls that came with VS 2008 (which I believe only work in CE).
Thanks,

I am trying to create a sproc creates several tables, views, and sprocs across several similar DBs (please...no lectures on structure...I didn't create this multi-DB setup) .
My sproc loops through the DBs and runs a script on each DB. I am running the Sproc from a client computer and cannot easily access the c drive on the SQL server.
The only way I have figured out how do do this is to run the following
xp_cmdshell 'isql d- %@mydb% i- c:script.sql'
inside a loop.
My problem is that xp_cmdshell refers to the server c drive instead of my local c drive, where my script file is.
Is there a way to refer to my local c drive? Also any thoughts on a better way to approach this (other than running the entire script inline in the sproc since I don't want to have to run quotes around each batch of the script).
Thanks
I am trying to view a report that i created and I get an error everywhere but on the server, where it runs fine. the report uses the sharepoint lists.asmx web service as a datasource, and I'm using Windows Authentication on the datasource. I'm logged on to my desktop with the same account i use on the server, but on the server it runs and on the desktop i get the following error:

The actual sql server pc thinks I am accessing its sql server's A: and not my local a: drive. I am trying to read in a simple CSV delimited ascii file into a sql table. Wow what a nightmare just to read a simple ascii file into a table. Unfortunatley I am writing a program in VB.net for an operator to import ascii data from floppy diskettes.
I am using this command below: The command works fine but I have to go to the actual server and put the floppy disk in over there. I want the operator to be able to use there own A: or any location drive for that matter. Sql server over the network is not allowing us to access any local drive to import this data. I get an error 21 because the sql server does not have the floppy in its drive. It seems like some kind of security issue, but I am not sure. Any information would be most appreciated in this matter. Thanks in advance.

sample code below:
BULK INSERT Master.dbo.imVBMbAddress
FROM 'a:mbAddressPipes.txt'
WITH (FORMATFILE = 'a:importdatambaddress.fmt',
FIRSTROW=2);
I have created several reports in SRS and I deploy them by establishing a VPN connection than deploying. That much works fine.
Now I want to allow user of my website to access the reports by clicking on a link. Do I need to establish user level access for the reports for each user or just one public access account? How do I pass login and credential information with the link so that users can access the report.
Thanks in advance
Hello everyone,
I have the sql connection string configured in my web application as
data source=(local); provider=sqloledb.1; user id=<<user id>>; password=<<password>>; database=<<database>>
My understanding is that when (local) is used, the connection method will fall to shared memory / named pipes. I have names pipes and TCP/IP enabled in the configuration manager.
My machine is also running Comodo Firewall .
Now this is what is happening. When I try to access the asp.net application, I get a component exception in comodo firewall that indicates w3wp.exe is trying to access the sql server via the machine's IP over port 1433. This happens when I try to load the application in the browser.
What I dont understand is that when (local) is configured, it should only access thru shared memory / named pipes. Why is it trying to connect thru TCP port. Is this because I have the sql username and password? My SQL server is configured for mixed mode authentication.
Thanks

All,
I would like a report to display the number of users and the reports accessed for a certain duration of time[being able to go back and check for previous years as well].
I read on the msdn that 60 days worth of report log is kept,and the rest gets wipped off.Any suggestions on how I would be able to get user access list for the past year as well.
I am not able to access registery key in report when report is deployed on reporting server. But when that report (.rdl) is opened in a Business Intelligence project it is able to access registry key.
So, my question is what need to be done to get value of registery key in reports deployed on reporting server.

Dear Technical Team,
I am facing an error while displaying a sql reporting service report on my asp.net page. The report it self is build using Report server project. It consists of a Main report which contains a bar graph. Upon clicking on the bar graph, it takes you to another report (i have given in the jump to report section), call it Report 2. Upon clicking on Report 2 it shows another report say Report 3. It is displayed properly as long as i run the preview of the report in my report project. When i deploy this report on the report server and trying it to access using my asp.net code behind. The main reports runs very fine. Upon clicking, it does not do anything and when i click again it display error, the report does not contain any thing. Sometime it does not show even the error. But just could not drill me in.
I presume on the click event of the report which is a char item, it calls the page load event, and it loses it parent report information or something like that. Please can any body guide me how to do this.
The following functionality i need to achieve with my web page.
My main report : Main report :upon click on any char item, it should take you to the second report.
My second report : and on clicking on charitem on the the second report, it should take me to the third report.
Please help

Nazim
First of all, following is my setup.
I have Reporting Services installed on my web server (Windows 2003) where I am hosting my website too.
While installing Reporting Services, I used my database server as SQL Server (Windows 2000, SQL Server 2000).
Now when I try to access from browser using http://servername/reports it's giving me following error: "The underlying connection was closed: Could not establish trust relationship with remote server."
Also when I try to access http://servername/reportserver/ it gives me this error: "The permissions granted to user '{servername}IUSR_{servername}' are insufficient for performing this operation. (rsAccessDenied) Get Online Help"
I have given full access to "ASPNET", as well as "IUSR_{servername}" on the folder "C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQLReporting Services"
While installing reporting services, I used SQL mode of authentication.
My goal is to have reports on internet for public view. I have "Enable Anonymous access" check box checked on IIS with user name "IUSR_{servername}"
I have looked many places for the error and while many people is having same error, everyone has different reason and different solutions.
Not sure what I am missing here...Can anybody help?
Thanks

How is it possible for others to browse to my localmachine and view the reports?
They tried browsing to http://machinename/reports
and http://10.1.3.123/reports
But the message the users get is: You are not authorized to view this page.
Then In my localmachine, I changed the IIS setting for the Reports and ReportServer to allow anonymous access. Then the users were able to see the Home page of the reports but not the reports themselves to click on for viewing. Any thoughts please?
Thanks
Thanks for the info but I am interested in designing and running local reports in a windows form. I have not been able to find correct documentation on how you define a schema that can be used to create an rdlc file for design of a report that uses a datasource that is set at runtime. Specifically, I would like to use business objects that return a data table in a get method.

Hi,
Actually we have multiple Sub Reports which we want to open from the Main Report. Initially when i used "Jump To Report" property it worked fine but in the browser the Main Report used to get refreshed everytime i had to Go Back to Main Report from Sub Report.
Second solution which i want to try is using "Jump To URL" property.
Some Details:
I have multiple parameters in the report.
My parameters are getting data from a Cube.
Parameters can have Multiple Vaue selected at a time.
I want to pass all the values to the URL.
Say
Parameter1 is DimCountryCountry
can have values such as:
[Dim Country].[Country].[All]
[Dim Country].[Country].&[India]
[Dim Country].[Country].&[Germany]
......
Parameter2 is DimCountryState
can have values such as:
[Dim Country].[State].[All]
[Dim Country].[State].&[Delhi]
[Dim Country].[State].[Punjab]
.....
Now i want to create a URL using these values,since each parameter should be separated by "&"(ampersand) my URL looks like one below.
Following URL Works fine:
javascript:void(window.open'(http://MyReportServer/ReportServer/Pages/Report.aspx?/MyReports/Project1/Country+Data&rcarameters=false&DimCountryCountry=[Dim Country].[Country].[All]&DimCountryState=[Dim Country].[State].[All]'))
as long as there is no "&" in the Parameter Value the URL works fine.
But when i try to insert values other than "[All]" it starts failing because "[Dim Country].[Country].&[India]" contains "&", which gives error due to ambiguity, (whether this "&" is a parameter separater or is it a part of parameter value)
So i found a solution for that, which is to replace "&" with "%26" escape sequence characters.This works fine as long as we specify this escape sequence in address bar. i.e if we directly paste the following URL in the address bar it will work.
http://MyReportServer/ReportServer/Pages/Report.aspx?/MyReports/Project1/Country+Data&rcarameters=false&DimCountryCountry=[Dim Country].[Country].%26[India]&DimCountryState=[Dim Country].[State].%26[Delhi]
but if we put this URL in the Javascript, it doesnot work, because the WIndow.Open function automatically replaces the
"%26" characters with "&", which we know gives ambiguity error.
Please let me know if you have any suggesiton for it. Anyway any better solution for my problem.
Thanks

Hi,
I would like to save a report (.rdl) and work offline with it. Is there a way for doing this without having to install reporting services.
I have a bunch of reports that I need to display. I've designed the reports using the Report Designer. Basically what I want to happen is to view the reports in local mode with the report viewer, but have them hit the database to get the values. I've designed them all with the database, I just don't want to go through all the hassle of setting up a report server. Plus, I've got a demo later this week so time is kind of a factor. Is what I'm trying to do possible? I really need help as the demo is this week
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm having a nightmare issue with an application we sell.
The system is a three tier system.
We have world wide about 40 installations.
The system uses MS reporting services to produce reports.
All bar one of the reports are server based reports.
While the remaining one is kept local for performance reasons, as it prints a small label in high quantities.
Now this local report is working fine except in one sistuation.
One of our customers has 8 of our systems.
All 8 are clones. The client machines were ghosted to ensure everyone got the same. The databases all started off identical. The Server software is all identical.
However.. one of these systems is about once a week throwing an exception when it goes
to print this local report.
"An error occured during local report processing."
99% of the time it prints fine. Once the exception is thrown, the only way to make it work again is to quit
out of the application and reopen it, where upon it will start to work again.
All other information returned is soley stack traced from our program, pointing out the button that caused the report to attempt to render and fail.
Here in lies my problem.
I have had the client machine rebuilt from ground up.
The server software has been checked and is definitely identical to everyone else's.
I've taken a copy of their database and spent days trying to reproduce the exception with no success on our machines.
I've logged in remotely and spent hours working on their system to force the issue with no success.
I've also tried cutting the label down so that no fields are displayed, but the exception still remains...
The developers of the system have not been very useful.
The store staff are very fed up of ringing me and saying that big red error message is up again!
Any ideas would be highly appreciated. This has been going round in circles since december.
Do local reports show any more detailed logs anywhere, like the Server based ones?
Cheers
Chris
Hello, this is my first time posting here.
View 1 Replies View RelatedWe have a 64-bit VM server running SQL Server 2005. The SQL Server on this particular VM server has 6 local instances installed. On the Management Studio logon screen I can type the full name of the local instance and connect to it, however if I press the drop down in the Server name field, choose Browse and select the Local Servers tab there is nothing listed under Database Engines.
Any idea why the 6 local instances don't show up under Database Engines? This is preventing me from installing a vendor application because their installer looks for local SQL Server instances on this server, but if SQL Server won't even show the local instances then the installer doesn't see them either.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

I am facing a problem in connecting to the local database with server name as (local).
I have installed SQL Server 2005 in my machine. When I try to connect to the SQL server with the server name as SUNILKUMAR I am able to connect but when I try to connect to the same server with the server name as (local) I am not able to connect. SUNILKUMAR is my machine name and SQL server is running locally.
if anyone can help me what is the problem in this case it is highly appriciated.
Hi Everyone
I am at the stage of architecting my solution
My goal is to develop the system on a windows application and pda
There is a central server which will create a publication called inventory
The laptops which host the windows application will be subscribers to the central server using merge replication
The client now wants the PDA using SQL Mobile to synchronize with the local subscirber database on the laptop using active sync. They dont want to do it via WIFI to the IIS Server at the central server
I have been reading for days and I am still unsure whether this is possible to do.
I know Appforge provide a conduit for palm to access synchronization but not local sql databases
I would appreciate your help immensley
Hello SQL Server Experts, Data Analysts, and Report Writers et al:
re: Reporting Options with SQL Server
I wanted to propose an offshoot to the pryor thread:
Would anyone take a stab at comparing Access Reports, Crystal Reports,
Cognos or other options to all the Reporting Services and its components offered as part ofSQL Server, especially as to extracting data from SQL Server into a report format?
I guess this is a far as capabilites, ease of use, limitations, and especially formatting
or presentation of the end report product?
Thank you to all, and I hope this is a beneficial discussion to others.

I have an already published application running several MS SQL Server 2000 Reporting Services report.
I need a way to find from either the reporting services log or the application server (IIS) logs or windows log
to know the frequency of each report being used.
Based on this info, the business needs to know which reports are being used and to what extend?
How can I acheive this?
I have already got the IIS logs and it did not give the required info.
I have looked into the Reporting Services logs but it does not provide the info either.
Any help is appreciated

Being a very novice SQL Server administrator, I need to ask the experts a question.
How do I go about moving a database from 1 drive to another? The source drive (C is local to the server, but the target drive (E is on a Storage Area Network (SAN), although it is still a local drive for the server. I want to move the database from C: to E:. Can someone provide me with instructions?
Thanks,

Hi Friends,
Could I migrate the reports which are developed on SQL 2000 to SQL 2005. If Yes then How ...
Could anyone explain me. How it works.
Thanks

My issue is with converting multi-value parameters:
In Crystal Reports, you can set a parameter to accept multiple vales (Discrete, Range or Discrete and Range).
As an example:
I have a database table with a column called ID.
I can create a parameter called param_id and set the options of the parameter to "Allow multiple range values".
With this setup, I can limit the result set of the report by comparing the param_id parameter to the ID column in the database. Because param_id is a multi-value range parameter, I can pass it the following data:
1 - 50
60 - 80
150 - 127
This will only return results within those ranges.
Does anyone know if SSRS provides this kind of functionality?
Thanks,

Is there a way to copy reports from other users "My reports" folder? I am logging onto the management studio reporting services using an administrative account and I am able to view the reports from all users' "My Reports" folder. But I am not able to export them as an rdl file. I am able to export reports from other common folders, but not from the "My Reports" folder.
The reason I need to do this is some of the users have created some reports in one environment and the reports are available in their respective "My Reports" folder. I need to move these reports to their corresponding "My Reports" folder in another environment.
Is there a way to do this?
Thanks for your help.
