In the MSDN white paper "Microsoft .NET Data Provider for mySAP Business Suite", on page 2, it shows an example of calling a RFC with a variable. Specifically, it states "To execute this statement, you must create a SAPParameter object with the name @var1, specify its value, and add the new object to the SAPCommand object corresponding to the query." How do I create a SAPParameter object?

Which one is better to use? Is there a significant difference between the two?
Does someone have the directions to add ODP.Net to my database connections list in SSRS?
Thanks
Hi:
Am trying to access a Indexing Services catalog from SSIS. Problem is configuring the Data Connection.
I chose New Connection, Provider=Microsoft OleDB provider for Indexing Services.
Then I am not quite sure what to fill in for:
A. Server or File Name (I tried the IP address, the machine name, catalog name)
B. Location(tried catalog Name, ip address, machine name)
The Log On to Server frame is disabled.
Test Connection succeeds, but trying to use a Table or a Query does not work out.
How do I configure the Connection?
TIA

Hi All,
I am fairly new to SSRS. I want to install SSRS on my local system which has OS of Win XP sp2 (not a server). I have installed SQL Server instance on this box. Can any body tell if i need Win Server 2000 or 2003 OS to install SSRS or can i use Win XP, if so please give some guidelines.
Thank's in advance..
We are having our SSRS (Sql Server Reporting Services) Servers deployed in Domain1 to connect to the Domain1 data sources. Now, when we configure the SSRS datasources (which is in Domain1) to run under €œDomain2/User€? credentials , it€™s taking 60 minutes to render a report whereas when we configure the SSRS datasources to run under €œDomain1/User€? account it€™s taking only 5 seconds.
I would like to know €œWhy there is a latency difference while configuring the SSRS data sources with different domain credentials (Domain1Domain2)?€?
Any pointers to Support KB or any other related articles would be really great.
Hi,
We are developing a windows application (Distributed via ClickOnce) and hosting the
SqlServer 2005 at our company. Now, we need to add reporting services to our application
and I've stumbled upon some problems.
First off, each customer has their own database on the same SqlServer instance. What
I would want, and need guidance for, is the following..
1. I want each customer to be able to use the Report Builder to login and access a
model only targeted against their database (maybe using some sort of sql user account?).
2. I want each customer to be able to login to Report Manager and save/edit their
own reports targeted solely for their database.
3. If possible, is there a way to script this for easy creation when we acquire a new customer.
4. If this is not at all possible, what other solutions are there out there?
Kind Regards,
Robert
I am using SSRS 2008 R2. On my SSRS machine. I went and created the SQL Alias (both for 32 bit and the other one).
Then I ran the SSRS configuration wizard and tried to configure the SSRS service to create a report server database by using a SQL Alias.
It connects to the DB fine but at the last step it gives an error saying no such host. How to configure SSRS Service when they used an alias for the sql server?

I am trying to automate the setup of SQL server 2014 Standard edition with SSRS. To avoid SSRS being setup using the default port 80 for the webservice and report manager url's, I've chosen to install SQL server with the setting RSINSTALLMODE="FilesOnlyMode" and then use powershell to do the final setup steps.To setup the ReportServer database, I use the "GenerateDatabaseCreationScript" method available in the "MSReportServer_ Configuration Setting" class.
This succeeds without problems however when I use my browser to connect to the web service or report manager url's, I get a "rsInvalid Report Server Database" and a "rsReportServerDatabaseUnavailable " error, respectively.Running the stored procedure named GetDbVersion in the ReportServer database returns "C.0.9.45". If I delete the ReportServer database and then recreate it database manually with the Report Services Configuration manager, the same stored procedure returns "162".
So it seems to me there's a problem with the GenerateDatabaseCreationScript but I can't find any information on this. How can I automate the setup of SSRS and ensure it does not use port 80? There are many manual solutions involving multi-step GUI solutions but the key for me is to automate this with powershell which doesn't appear to be possible.
Hi,
Im working with SSIS and im trying to get some data from SAP using the .net Data Provider for mySap.
The problem is that i want do to a query where the where values changes, that is, to use parameters in the select statement. The way to use parameters here is the SAPParameters but i haven't been able to find out how to create/use them in SSIS.
Has anybody used this or know how to work with them?
Thx.
Hi,
After reading this helpful blog entry:
http://blogs.msdn.com/sql_protocols/archive/2007/05/13/sql-network-interfaces-error-26-error-locating-server-instance-specified.aspx
I think this might be a good place to ask the following question.
I am writing the error handling code for my data access layer for a web application. I am using the Enterprise Library Data Access Application Block. Although this supports generic database connections, I realized that I need to handle errors specific to each database type. Microsoft SQL is the only database type I am using for now, so I am using a try...catch (SqlException e).
In testing my code, I intentionally changed the instance name in web.config to a name that does not exist. I get the very popular error 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified. This is returned as a SqlException, but the SqlError.Number property is set to -1.
Am I getting "-1" because the provider hasn't actually connected to SQL yet, so it doesn't have an actual SQL error number?
Can I assume that (SqlError.Number == -1) is always a fatal, provider-level connection exception?
Will the provider ever use another SqlError.Number of its own? Or do all numbers besides -1 come from the SQL sysmessages table?.
Is there a comprehensive list of what exceptions might be raised by the SqlClient provider, including #26?
The reason for all the questions is that in a web application, I want to prevent the end-user from seeing the "real" exception if it has to do with configuration errors. However, maybe there are other errors that the user should see and handle? It's hard to know without a full list of SqlClient provider errors, along with the SqlError.Number that each error maps to.
Thanks and regards,
Mark
Hi,
I am using SSRS connecting to DB2 via IBM OLEDB provider for DB2. When I view the reports by clicking the link from report server, it does not show the latest data. But when I refresh the report, it shows the latest data. I feel this is a potential problem from SSRS as the same provider works fine with Crystal reports.
Can anyone throw lights on this?
Thanks,
S Suresh
I am receiving the "Provider Load Failure" message when I start the SSRS Configuration Tool on my report server.
As suggested on other threads, I have checked the reportingserviceswmi.dll and it is version 2005.90.1399.0 and the WMI service is running.
Any suggestions on what to do next?
Hi,
I'm encountering an issue with "Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 windows" and am having problems determining how to fix it due to the environment I'm using. I have two SQL Servers installed on two separate Win2K3 Server boxes, one is SQL Server 2000 and the other is SQL Server 2005. The SQL Server 2000 contains the actual application data. The 2005 database is used only for Reporting Services. I've set up the reports on SSRS such that their datasources hit the 2000 server. This is using SQL Server authentication.
When testing the reports via SSRS (in Visual Studio 2005), the connection to the data works and the reports are generated fine. When I deploy them to the reporting server and launch IE to test locally (still on the 2005 box), I get this "Named Pipes Provider, error 40" issue. I made sure that Named Pipes and TCP were enabled and the port set at 1433 (to match that on the 2000 box).
Now I changed the datasource's authentication from SQL Server to Windows authentication. I tested this in SSRS and this works too. When I redeployed the reports with this authentication change, testing the reports via IE locally (on the 2005 box) worked (using Administrator login). Great. Now when I open IE on an external box, i.e. on the 2000 box, and try to test the reports using that server's Administrator login, I get this same error 40 issue. I've been through a few threads describing the error 40, fiddling around with the SQL Server configuration as well as SSRS, to no avail. I have a feeling this error 40 issue has to due with permissions/authentication between the SQL Server boxes but I can't really be sure. Anyone have any ideas on how to troubleshoot my situation. Thanks.

View 6 Replies View RelatedRecently I installed the .NET data provider for Teradata.
In a regular C# application I can add the namespace, "using
Teradata.Client.Provider;" to connect to this data provider
directly without going though ODBC or OLD DB so I know it works.
However, when I open Reporting Services (new project -> Business Intelligence
Projects) I do not see how to add the Teradata .NET provider. I only
see the same standard data types as before. I have searched and I do
not see how to add the Teradata .NET provider to the available "Type"

hi all
I realised this has been done to death, and so much information out there but I am still in a quandry.
I have had to rebuild my computer.
This is what I did
XP machine
using SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition
using Windows Authentication
NZ6(MSSQLSERVER)
straight default install all the way
unfortunately when ready to run reports from my instance(computer)
I received the error as in provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server
thought I had it all okayed but obviously something not right
so ended up unistalling then - did the following:
Load SQL Server from disc1 and start install
failed on alter Counter Registry key error
fixed this from KB article (known error that can happen)
restarted
Went to Windows Update
check IIS is installed - tick is on - IIS - admin tools - make sure asp2 is associated - yes ok
Then back to install sql server - there is no instance set up yet
Disk 2 and setup .exe
All ok on Reporting Services, Analysis etc.
But once again all seems fine but still getting the error:
connection is all fine in Management Studio - eg I can see tables etc
connection is all fine in Business Intelligence - eg I can preview my reports
I then can deploy up to - NZ6
open NZ6
eports
report is there fine - but just errors
some simple little tick that I have not done!!
I seem to have checked and rechecked everything and obviously doing another re-install does not seem a logical step from here.
I will continue to check but if someone jump in and advise please would be great.
cheers

I am currently learning ASP.Net and am having problems with my SQL Server database.

I use Windows Authentication to connect and enter the server name and <default> database but it fails with error 'Unable to connect to SQL Server database'. But i can logon to the SQL Server 2005 using the same user. Can anyone point me in the right direction please.
