Deploying A Report Services Application To The Local Host; Error:A Connection Could Not Be Made To The Report Server
Feb 23, 2007
I installed SQL reporting services 2005 and successfully configured reporting services.After designing the report using Bussiness Intelligence Studio, i tried to deploy my reporting services application to the localhost , I got the below mentioned error :

A connection could not be made to the report server http://localhost/ReportServer.

I'm working through the SQL2005 Reporting Services Tutorial. When I try to deploy, I get the error "Connection could not be made to the report server." It appears that I do not have permissions to get to localhost/reportserver (I get a permissions error when just trying to get there directly from "run"). In another forum I saw several people having the same issue. One contributor said that the problem was solved for him by uninstalling SQL2005 and reinstalling using the local system account rather than a windows domain account. I tried that, but am getting the same error. Anyone know how to fix this?
Please take me out from this hell. I created report using VS2005 Business Intelligence Project. It builds fine. I can also see data in the design time. But when I am trying to deploy it gives me this error.

I have sql server 2005 Business Intelligent studio on my machine and Report server on some other machine. I created one rdl file and tried to deploy it on the report server. I have checked the report folder name and everything. But the error mentioned in the subject is being thrown. Additional information is
The request failed with HTTP status 407: Proxy Authentication Required. (Microsoft.ReportingServices.Designer)
Please let me know what all I need to do to resolve the problem.
1. have report called report_a.rdl with subscriptions attached to it 2. developed a new report called report_b.rdl with the same parameter list as report_a.rdl 3. i would like to replace report_a.rdl with report_b.rdl without losing the subscriptions.
I think this is the workflow:
1. rename report_a.rdl to report_a_old.rdl in BIDS 2. rename report_b.rdl to report_a.rdl in BIDs 3. deploy report_a.rdl to reporting server
Will that work even though the ReportID GUID will change?
Using MS SQL 200 SP4 with Reporting Services 2000 SP2 on Win 2003 Server SP1
Visual Studio .NET 2003 on different PC (Win XP SP2)
No problem creating reports or building solutions. Problems develop when deploying report to Report Server.
Here is the Output:
------ Build started: Project: From CD, Configuration: Debug ------
Build complete -- 0 errors, 0 warnings
------ Deploy started: Project: From CD, Configuration: Debug ------
Deploying to http://<server name>/ReportServer?%2f2nd Deploying data source '/2nd/AdventureWorks2000'. Deploying report 'Vendor Purchase Orders'. The report definition is not valid. Details: Could not find schema information for the element 'http://schemas.microsoft.com/sqlserver/reporting/2003/10/reportdefinition:Report'. Deploy complete -- 1 errors, 0 warnings
These are my first attempts using report services. In a previous deployment attempts it created the folder (named 2nd), but in another attempt (saving it to the existing folder) I got the same result as you see above (I have also tried with a new folder but no luck). This above output is from my last attempt.
The Build error Task List states:
The Report Definition is not valid. Details: Could not find schema information for the element 'http://schemas.microsoft.com/sqlserver/reporting/2003/10/reportdefinition:report'.
The shema URL as above returns HTTP 404. If I remove :report, I receive the page for Report Definition Language Schema May 2004
Looking at the .rdl code the schema URL is as above without :report.
As you can imagine with a limited skill set in this area I am quite confused. I have been doing alot of research but found nothing to help (or that I understand will help) so far.
If anyone can help me get through this I would appreciate it.
I am trying to deploy a shape file map of the world with 100 random data points from my dataset but get this error: "exception running the extensions specified in the config file. ---> Maximum request length exceeded". I can preview this fine in SSDT. I have read various solutions which involve editing the config file but I don't have permissions to get to these files. Is there any way to amend the maximum length either through SSMS or SSDT? If not how can I make my map size small enough to deploy? It is a very simple shape file with no colours etc and I am passing random 100 data points to it from my dataset.
what are the minimum required permissions for being allowed to deploy a report? When I try to deploy a report in BIDS I get the error message that my user has not sufficient rights for doing so.
Some key data for my configuration:
Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition with Service Pack 1 SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition with Service Pack 1 I'm not a local administrator, but I have administration rights for SQL Server and Analysis Services I'm in the Reporting Services' system administrator and system user groups
I can access http://localhost/Reports, but not http://localhost/ReportServer I have access to the directory (incl. subdirectories) MSSQL.2, but not to MSSQL.1MSSQL and MSSQL3Reporting Services I can't run the Reporting Services Configuration Tool (see http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=1565766&SiteID=1) I can't connect to Reporting Services in SQL Server Management Studio
My question is (as I have already mentioned in the beginning): what are the minimum rights the IT administrator has to assign to my user so that I'll be able to deploy reports? Giving me local administrator rights is not possible.
Thanx in advance and kind regards, Gerald
Update:
In the meantime I have found out, that I'm most probably not a member of the Publisher role. But although I am in the System Administrator role I cannot assign myself to this role. When going to http://localhost/Reports the required links are just not visible. Is this because I'm not a member of the groups SQLServer2005ReportServerUser$... and SQLServer2005ReportingServicesWebServerUser$... ?
I have created a ssrs report using ssrs-2012 that contains 2 tables 2 pie charts and 1 line chart. But I am unable to see 2 pie charts and and 1 line chart after deploying the rdl in sharepoint server.
Why I am not able to see those charts, or sharepoint server will not support charts at all.
I've seen some similar posts to this one, however none with an answer and I'm wondering if anyone has actually figured out what causes this issue. I'm running SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services.
I'm attempting to implement a folder structure for the report server, therefore am creating individual solutions in Visual Studio for each folder. At the top level i.e http://servername/reportserver/ I am able to deploy reports no problem.
However creating a folder at the next level in the tree and then deploying to that level such as http://servername/reportserver/ManagementReports causes a Reporting Services Login prompt to appear. No matter what user credentials I enter they are not accepted. I have full administrator rights the server, the site and the folders in question.
Has anyone else experienced this? Does anyone have any suggestions?
I have developed a custom report item that works fine in design and preview mode while in Visual Studio. I cannot get it to show up on my deployed reports. Here's what I have done so far:
1. Deployed the report using Visual Studio
2. updated the rsreportserver.config file with the following entry:
I've also tried using the StrongNameMembershipCondition with no better results.
4. The dll and its dependencies are copied to the bin directory of the report server.
5. When I load a report with this custom report item on it, the report loads fine with no errors or warnings in the log file (even with verbose tracing). The area where the custom item should be is just white. It's almost like Reporting Services isn't registering the item correctly.
This is particularly frustrating because the report works fine in Visual Studio - apparently I configured that correctly. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I'm stumped.
I have a Report Server when i try to deploy my report on the same server and if i use the Fully Qualified Domain Name in my report path i get the below Error
I went to my comp ->rt cick->manage-IIS->default website->rt click->properties->directory security->annoymouse access€¦EDIT->under Default domain it was blank, and i added a domain there.
And i was getting error opening up the reports from localhost.
I changed everything to same as it was previosly, and I am getting the error:
The report server cannot open a connection to the report server database. A connection to the database is required for all requests and processing. (rsReportServerDatabaseUnavailable) (rsRPCError) Get Online Help
Cannot open database "ReportServer$SQLExpress" requested by the login. The login failed. Login failed for user 'NGESComputer name$'.
The current way I have my asp.net 2.0 web app running reports is, based on an interface the user selects the criteria for a report. The .RDL file is created dynamically based on the user's selections. I then need to SOAP the dynamically created report to the report server and then the report runs fine. BUT it requires Adminstrative rights to do this. Can this be accomplished without giving the local machine admin rights. I am sorry if this question has been answered before but i have not been up here in a while.
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:
When deploying a project from within a SSIS project in Visual Studio 2012 to SQL Server 2012 Integration services server I get the follwoing error message:
Failed to deploy project. For more information, query the operation_messages view for the operation identifier '10'. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 27203)
For the given operation id there is no entry in view catalog.operation_messages.
This "reponse is not well-formed XML" error also occurs when I try to expand any of the folders from a "reporting services" server type in management studio.
my problem is , i want to deploy my rdl and rds file which i make in the sql 2005 reporting services. Now i want to deploy this rdl through asp.net coding using language VB i hope someone is help me Thanks Rahul Sinha
I would like to know if it is resonable and acceptable to make reports created through SQL Server Reporting services available through our Public facing applications.
Also, what are the potential problems? Security? Impact on the SQL Server? Limit to specific types of reports?
If anyone has any info it would be greatly appreciated, I am a big fan of SQL Reporting but we are unsure if we are going to be able to use the reports on the Public side and we don't want two separate sets of reports (internal and Public).
I am trying to place text boxes in the header of a matrix in order to give each row group(i.e. each drill-down area in my matrix a header). This can be done in Reporting Services 2005.
However when I deploy this report to the corresponding url(Report Manager) it seems to be losing its formatting and not displaying correctly. The textboxes placed in the matrix header seem to go all over the place.
I do get a warning when I deploy the report ->
[rsOverlappingReportItems]. Some renderers do not support overlapping report items.
Is it possible to turn a server report created using report builder (with all the smdl and dsv stuff) into a report that is viewable using the Reportviewer ASP.Net control in _local_ mode? I need this because I'm trying to replace the datasource used in creating the report by another one for viewing the report.
I have created a report using SSRS 2005. It uses a stored procedure. It executes beautifully when I'm in reporting services. But, when I deploy it to Report Manager, this is the error I am getting.
An error has occurred during report processing. Query execution failed for data set 'DataSource1'. An MDX Statement was expected. An MDX expression was specified.
I have 3 parameters in this report. Start Date, End Date & Region. Region is a drop down that contains 2 options. This is a string field being passed into the procedure. Start and end dates are just basic date fields.
I am not using a cube to get my data.
I have deployed to the Report Manager before and have been successful.
I make a report to consume a SSIS package, actually I use SSIS to load a datasheet on my Sql Server database, then i expose the aggregate values in a datareader destination. Every work fine in Visual Studio. But when i deploy my report and my Shared Data Source, and I try to run the report i get the next message:
An error has occurred during report processing.
No se puede crear una conexión al origen de datos 'ETLSource'.
The package failed to validate. I dont Understand why, because when i work in BIDS the work perfect, Actually i'm using sql server authentication in my package connection to avoid the mistakes about report credentials.
That is the code of the ETLSource. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <RptDataSource xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"> <Name>ETLSource</Name> <DataSourceID>c238d65d-a0f3-48da-ae23-323d6ba13bb0</DataSourceID> <ConnectionProperties> <Extension>SSIS</Extension> <ConnectString>-f "C:TempValidaCambioEfec.dtsx"</ConnectString> </ConnectionProperties> </RptDataSource>
Also I have SSIS and SSRS in the same machine. And I'm using the same domain Account to run SSIS, SSRS and Reports site.
I get the following error when I try to deploy a report builder model. The SQL Server 2005 "Reporting Services" are installed and running on the local machine.

Good grief the tech are telling me that the reason I cant connect to report services is becasue I need to be a Local Admin, I can connec to the database engine but not Report services. Yikes
I have a custom assembly that I wrote. I placed it in the GAC and the report runs fine locally. I placed it on the server in the GAC and it kicks out the following error when deploying:
Error while loading code module: €˜SSRSReporting, Version=1.0.1.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=de4c010eaf2f2fe8€™. Details: Could not load file or assembly 'SSRSReporting, Version=1.0.1.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=de4c010eaf2f2fe8' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified. ....
If I put the file in the /bin directory on the server there is no issues and it works fine. I need to to deploy to the GAC though. I restarted IIS and the RS services. I still have the same issue.
I have not yet changed over all my reports to use fully qualified urls yet. As we have multiple domains in which the reports need to go through before they hit the production server and i haven't yet decided how i am going to handle the issues of the reports requiring fully qualified addresses (if someone has a way i would love to know).
I was getting the following error when i tried to deploy the projects but i delete all extensions from the blocked file types and that error went away. I can only guess that there was a file type it didn't like.
Error - "The file you are attempting to save or retrieve has been blocked from this Web site by the server administrators."
When i deleted all the file extensions i now get the following error.
Error - "File Not Found."
Just wondering if anyone has had any success with visual studio and sharepoint deployment or run into this problem.
I have created and deployed my first report. It renders fine for me and the other database admin. When others attempt to view it, we get the error
Query execution failed for data set 'periods'. (rsErrorExecutingCommand), For more information about this error navigate to the report server on the local server machine, or enable remote errors
Initially, We created a local group on the machine that hosts both the database and webserver and added the individuals to that group. Then, within SRS Report manager, we added that group to the Browswer role of the report. The error message was slightly different, in that it couldn't even open the Datasource.
We then added an individual to the database as dbreader, and got the above message. It apprently is starting to render, and when it encounters the first query (dataset "periods", which populates a drop down list for a parameter), it chokes. BTW, the Periods dataset executes a stored procedure dbo.Period_List that has no parameters. It returns a list of reporting periods.
I could not figure out how to "enable remote errors" or find an error log on the server. The C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.3Reporting ServicesLogFiles Log files did not appear to record any errors.
