I would like to know if it is possible to have different applications on separate report servers sharing one report server database. If so are there possible issues or ptfalls to this type of architecture?
Thanks,

I have a situation where I would like to set up one DB server instance for US and anther one for AUStralia. The Instance should share the same data base/hardsisk. One of the instances will be running in using US time zone and anothe one in Australia time zone.
There will be 2 Application instaces one poinint to each SQL Server instance. This applications does write into the database
So the underlying requirment is to have 2 database server running in differnet time zones but accessing the same disk/set of data
What is the best way to do this? Is it linked servers?Girish
Greetings... I'm working at consolidating several Reporting Services installations into one so we can decommission some old servers. We have two Report Servers that are in SQL Server 2000 and three that are in SQL Server 2005 (none are in a web farm configuration). I can upgrade the 2000 databases to 2005 format just fine, but now how do I merge these five ReportServer/ReportServerTempDB databases into one? I'm reluctant to redeploy reports to the "official" Report Server because we lose security, subscription, and scheduling information by doing that. So redeploy would cost us time and data loss over hundreds of reports, thus my hope to merge the databases at a data level. Is there a tool to automate this process, or has anyone tried this before? Thanks in advance.

I have a database in the SQL 2005 default instance and a report server in a named instance. The database has a symmetric key for decrypting one of the columns. When the report server queries the database I get this error: "Cannot find the symmetric key 'key', because it does not exist or you do not have permission."
I know the symmtric key is there because it works when queried from the same instance. Should the database and report server be in the same instance? Or is there a way to change the permissions so that the report server can access the symmetric key in the other instance?
I might note that the report server is able to access unencrypted data in the other instance. The error only occurs when I try to decrypt data using the symmetric key.
The version of Report Builder I have will only let me choose from a very limited range of layouts. For example, the tabular layout displays a single table on a page.
Is there a way to produce a report containing two tables and other fields?
For example, I would like to create a very simple customer report with customer name and address at the top, then a table containing all contacts I have for the the customer (a 1:N sub-table of customer) and then a second table containing all the orders from the customer (a 1:N sub-table of customer).
Is this possible in the current version of Report Builder or is it planned in a future relase?
P.S. I know this is easy in VS Report Designer but I specifically want to do this in Report Builder. The Report Designer client is simply too complex for my non-technical user base. Report Builder would be ideal.

I got this error message when I try to connect to database hosted in another PC running SQL server 2000.
Is it true that SQlL server Express can only use Local Database Engine to host the database?
Hi My project is in .NET 2003 i.e. framework 1.1 and database in SQLServer 2000. But the reports have been developed using SQLServer 2005 Reporting Services. Now when I am trying to deploy them through deployment project of .NET its giving me following error:"Using other editions of SQL Server for report data sources and/or the report server database" is not supported in this edition of Reporting Services.

Can we install two instances of report server on the same machine?. We want to use the same hardware for two different methods of custom authentication. Both the server applications would then talk to the same database.

The error happens on Reporting Service version 9.00.3017.00 (the version we are running in Production). The Reporting Service and its database are actually resided in the same physical server. And the strange thing is that it does not prevent any functionalities or features working except when I launch the Management Studio on that server, it usually takes 2 minutes to load up. (any other server would just take 5 -10 seconds).
Can any one help?
Thanks!

I am running SQL Reporting Services and SQL Server 2005 on a Windows 2003 server. The configuration has been unchanged for approx. 3 weeks. Suddenly today, reports being accessed via an ASP.NET 2.0 application (on Windows 2003 Server with IIS 6) using a SOAP call to the reportserver became inaccessable. End users received the following error:
Message: An error occurred during rendering of the report. --->

Subsequently, the following error is logged on the Report Server/Database server:

I was able to temporarily correct the problem by performing as iisrest on the Report Server/Database server. However, the same problem occured again a couple hours later. I am relatively new to SQL Reporting Services so any help would be appreciated.

how to count from multiple tables. So currently I pull two separate reports to show the count of TaskIDs by customer state and another to show WrapID by Customer state for last month:
TaskID Count by Customer state Query:
---------------------------------------
SELECT CU.CustomerState as 'State'
,Count (CM.TaskID) as 'CaseCount'
From Customer CU
LEFT OUTER JOIN ACN_CCPCaseManagementTask CM ON CU.CustID=CM.CustID
[code]...
I am wanting to add both these counts into a single report so i tried the follow query but the counts don't match to the reports I pull separately.
SELECT CU.CustomerState as 'State'
,Count (CM.TaskID) as 'CaseCount'
,Count (CW.WrapCodeID) as 'WrapCount'
From Customer CU
LEFT OUTER JOIN ACN_CCPCaseManagementTask CM ON CU.CustID=CM.CustID

I am using SQL RS 2005. I have a report that is using multiple data sources from different offices. I can add these data sources in my report but is it possible that I can select a specific data source based on a selected parameter value. In this case user from each office, select their office location and be able to see the data from their office. I would appreciate any suggestions.

Hi ,
I have a Report which has 8 stored procedures to get 8 resultant data sets . the stored procedures are almost similar such that they have only difference is the where clause and column getting returned.
So ,every stored access same set of tables and temporary tables getting created to store some set of active data derived from big table.
what happening is ,when i run the stored procedures individually in query analyser ,it is taking the time which is accepatable individually,but when i keep them in the same report. it is taking the time which is equal to sum of all the times taken by the stored procedures ran individually in query analyser which is some what not acceptable
can anybody through an idea,what can be done here. i already thought of locks and kept set transaction isolation level read uncomitted for all the stored procedures.but the time taking is same.
please help me here,i am stuck
Thank you
Hi,
I have an application wherein I need to generate a single report(possibly in PDF format) which contains more than one report. Iam using SSRS 2005. In my application Iam using report server url to render reports. The below is URL for rendering single report.
http://servername/ReportServer/Pages/ReportViewer.aspx?reportname&rs%3aCommand=Render&rs%3aFormat=HTML4.0&rc%3aToolbar=true
Is it possible to render multiple reports into a single report ?
Can anyone help me in this regard ?
Thanks,

I have multiple data sources that I would like to use for a single report. The data sources are separate due to security requirements. I have a table that I can get the Initial Catalog from. How do I get that field from the database into the data source connection string at run time?
I saw this link here but the light bulb didn't go off:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms156450.aspx
"define a query that retrieves a list of data sources at run time"
Can somebody help me out here?
TIA,

The goal is to produce a single PDF consisting of a number of subreports. Some are landscape, others are portrait. The subreports may also be run as independent reports. The master report that contains them defaults to the width of the widest subreport, which is landscape. This causes all portrait subreports to spill over producing blank pages. Are there any work-arounds to concatenate multiple, single report PDFs into a single PDF and have page numbering too?
Thanks!
I am using SS 2005 RS. I am able to generate single page pdf reports by passing "id" as a parameter. Now I need to send multiple ids as parameter and generate one big report which would contain reports for all the ids supplied on separate pages. Is this possible? If yes, then how do i do this.
What I have tried so far is, I created new report with a list control and added single page report as a subreport to this list control and grouped this list control using id parameter. When i send multiple ids in the parameter, for example 3 ids, it generates 3 page report but only for the first id. So it generates report for the first id and repeats same report 3 times.
Thanks for your help,

Here's tricky one.
I have a fairly complex report that was given to me that was hard coded for single parameters. There is a dropdown for each market (created from a query in SSRS). The users have to run for each market each week.
Is there a way to use this report as a Sub-report inside a list of a master report and then use a mult-value parameter?
I want this multi-value parameter to build the values for the list and then run the "sub-report" for each value.
Essentially, I want to create a for each loop.
Any ideas?
So I get the basics, have a script that can deploy a single report to a single server. I have other simple scripts that work as well. Now I want a script that can deploy a single report to multiple Sharepoint servers. I have about 30. I know we are probably doing this wrong, as in, we shouldn't be deploying the same report to 30 sites, as they are all all technically all on the same server however they are all independent site collections so as far as I know there is no way to deploy them to a central location and then link to them from each site.
So I tried to copy elements of my single report deploy script and duplicate the Sub Main() to Sub Main1() and Sub Main2() with multiple "ParentPath1" dims, yes I know I'm stupid. That obviously didn't work. So looking at some other scripts including my own subscription updater and I'm sure I need to do some kind of "For Each item in X" but where to start. The other lists I've seen all come from rs.Something. My list is just 30 variables in the script, how can I say for each site in this list, Publish this report?
Here's the simple script that works fine. I just don't know how to modify it to make it deploy this to multiple sites. After I figure that out, I was going to accept the challenge of deploying multiple reports to multiple sites in a single script...
Dim warnings As Warning() = Nothing
Dim parentFolder As String = "Reports"
Dim filePath As String = "filepath"
Dim reportName As String = "Report file name"
Dim parentPath As String = "Sharepoint site URL"
Public Sub Main()
[Code] ....
Hi -
I got through the installation hoops for SQLEXPRESS Reporting Services in Vista and set up the default configurations in Report Services Configuration. I can explore the default directory for "Reports" in IIS7, but I can't browse in IE. I get the "The report server is not responding. verify that the report server..." message in the browser. This is after I migrated the app per the initial http 500 error using the preferred method - %systemroot%system32inetservAPPCMD.exe migrate config "Default Web Site/Reports".
I'm running Vista Ultimate, VS2005, SQLEXPRESS SP2. I've tried running IE as admin and also I've disabled UAC from gpedit.msc - ...Windows SettingsSecurity SettingsLocal PolicySecurity Options and unchecking UAC.
Thanks,

New to MSSQL
Management is getting frustrated with the increase in number of NT servers for MSSQL and Vendor packages. Currently we purchase a box for each app. We would like to go to one or two MSSQL servers running multiple application database's (based on size etc) . How are you handling this? Do you do this for test only or both test and production? Any gotcha's. Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks

do you mean first install SDK, then install IIS, then install report sever?
I have same problem.
any can help?
Hello,
we are thinking about consolidating our Vendor Sqlserver needs into single big Sqlserver box.
We currently have dedicated boxs for each vendor who requires a Sqlserver Dbs, for example Siemen Sqlserver Dbs are on one box, Clintrac Dbs are on one bx, etc.
It looks like we can save some money on HW/SW and maintenance cost by the consolidation. That's assuming that the Dbs can get along fine.
I was wondering if folks on this group can share their experience or thoughts about above setting.
Thanks,
yi
