Subscription Error: The E-mail Address Of One Or More Recipients Is Not Valid.
Sep 20, 2006
I have subscriptions that fail because someone's email is no longer valid,
where is this error information stored so I can fix the problem?
I have a large list and it is hard to do manually.
I will be using data driven solutions, but these are existing subscriptions that need to be ran.
I try to send a report by email using SSRS subscriptions with recipients defined in an outlook email group. if 1 or more emailid are not a valid ones then SSRS does not send the report to any other valid recipients but displays the bellow error message!
"The e-mail address of one or more recipients is not valid."
In corporate companies, it is a common to find in valid/locked emailids in email group lists which can not be corrected.
Expected functionality: SSRS Subscriptions should send report email to other valid recipients in the mail group.
Could you please suggest a work around or fix the issue?
(NOTE: FROM a NON-IT PERSON) We've implented SQL 2005 and Reporting Services, but our subscriptions only work internally: when we try to send reports via subscriptions to valid external email addresses, we get a message: invalid email address and the entire subscription does not work.. PLEASE ADVISE. IT WILL BE GREATLY APPRECIATED!
I have a report that is sent via email to a list of recipients. When I look at the subscription in 'My Subscriptions' the value in the Status column states that the message was 'sent successfully', however the email does not appear in the inboxes of any of the intended recipents. The report renders OK via the browser and only takes a few seconds to process. The subscription exports the report as an Excel file. The excel file is approx 8MB in size but this is still below the attachment size limit for internal emails within my organisation. The subscription is tied to a shared schedule. Other reports that are tied to the shared schedule are shown as successful in 'My Subscriptions' and also appear in the inboxes of recipients. All email address are correct.
I forgot to mention, the report was successfully received by all recipients until very recently and the report has not been modified since this time.
I'm trying to set up a data-driven subscription and having problems with parameters. On the Report Parameter Values screen of the Create Data-Driven Subscription function I have set a parameter TimesheetPeriodEnd to "Specify a static value" and checked the NULL box. In the report the parameter is type string and allows nulls. When I try to run the subscription the reports are not sent and the error log contains the following message:
ReportingServicesService!library!f!10/05/2007-09:31:08:: Status: Failure sending mail: Default value or value provided for the report parameter 'TimesheetPeriodEnd' is not a valid value. ReportingServicesService!notification!f!10/05/2007-09:31:08:: Notification 0ae544df-4b1b-4a46-b7ab-cdefdca201be completed. Success: False, Status: Failure sending mail: Default value or value provided for the report parameter 'TimesheetPeriodEnd' is not a valid value., DeliveryExtension: Report Server Email, Report: Timesheet, Attempt 0
I am also setting other parameters for this subscription in the same way and not getting errors.
Any ideas? Previously I have had problems passing null values to parameters from the subscription query "Get value from database" from SELECT NULL AS ParameterName (this function just doesn't seem to work in SSRS). But I'm surprised I can't even seem to get this working with the default settings.
We have a report server which has lots of reports. this particular report has 375 subscriptions and 80% of them are failing with the error "The subscription contains parameter values that are not valid." since last week nothing new was done on the server. when I open the properties of one of the subscriptions, one of the parameter value shows as a number where as it should be the name of a state.
Not sure what to do to get the subscriptions back.
Hello, I have something like 100 regular subscriptions. It sometimes happen that one of the subscriptions suddenly stop to work with error "The subscription contains parameter values that are not valid". Example, one report has a dozen subscriptions, one of them stop to work. I look into the subscription and see that either one of the parameters is no longer set to a value or see nothing special besides the warning at the top of the subscription page. Parameters are all set to either default or some value(s). I reset one of the parameters, validate, or simply validate with no change and it works again. Next time, in one or three weeks another subscription will fail, I will reset it. Sometimes there are no errors, sometimes just 1 error and sometimes multiple errors accross reports or sometimes one report will suddenly have a few errors. Right now, I use a weekly report to warn me after the fact of what were last week errors if any (no data, parameters unvalid, etc). It looks like it happen with strings parameters based on datasets like "Sales offices" by example, where value and label are the same. Note that sales offices are by nature very stable, we do not change the spelling nor add remove entries. The list being a dataset gets rebuild, just to make sure we do not miss any eventual new sales office but if there is a new sales office, no one had a chance to select it as parameter value before it is in the dataset. I am really not sure what is going on, were parameters values changed in the metadata? I do not think so. Anyways, Is there a way to get an early warning instead of an after the fact error warning? Is there anything else I coud try to "Refresh" or "remap" parameters values to avoid these errors? When the subscription was created by a business analyst, If the parameters becomes blank, I have a hard time figuring out what it was when it was still valid. Is there any way to have a list of parameters values and have these values automatically "re-selected" by report server when the value gets lost? This is not a big problem however it is annoying and people will have a bad perception of the system quality. "I created a subscription for Sacramento and never got my report", some people will also introduce garbage because they will create a new subscription instead of fixing the broken one, then they may eventually get twice the same report. Any thought, does anyone had the same problem?

Hi all, I'd like to link a SQL Server database / table to Microsoft Exchange Server E-Mail-Address data, for an Employee Directory project.
I've read a little about "Web Store", a little about ExOLEDB, but I've come across nothing along practical lines. I.e., I still don't know where to begin!
For example the "Web Store" should be created on the SQL server, but how do you create it? Any insights will be greatly appreciated.
I am implementing a fax solution (Right Fax) and pulling email information from a table and passing into a variable. In order to send out a fax via email, the syntax is in the following example below:
Example:
To send a fax from Outlook to Jane Doe at 555-1212, enter:
[RFAX:Jane Doe@/FN=555-1212]
When the following syntax gets passed into the Send Mail Task, into the "To" line and the package is executed I'm receiving the following.
[Send Mail Task] Error: An error occurred with the following error message: "The specified string is not in the form required for an e-mail address.".
[Send Mail Task] Warning: The address in the "To" line is malformed. It is either missing the "@" symbol or is not valid.
I realize it’s a malformed email address. Is it possible to create a group and instead of the fax syntax pass the group name?
I have a report based on a cube. This report is on my report server. Now I want to make a new subsrciption to send this report every day via e-mail. The report also has parameters with default values.
But when I trie to maka a new subcription an error occures. It says that the login information for the analysis services database are not saved on the report server.
I tried to change the setting of the datasource to integrated security and so on, but it did not help.
I am having a strange intermittent problem sending reports via e-mail subscription. The report will be delivered only 20-25% of the time. I have checked the SQL logs, SQL Agent logs, System, App and Secuirty logs and see nothing obvious.
I put a network monitor on the reporting box and looked at all SMTP traffic. What happens is the reporting server connects to the SMTP box, sends the From Address and gets an OK, sends the To Address and gets an Ok. Next the reporting server sends a RSET command to the SMTP and it closes the connection.
No e-mail sent, but reporting services/SQL agent indicate success. Here is a log of the
how can standard subscription or data driven subscription be used to deliver reports to specific email address.
the standard subscription or data driven subscription can be used to delever reports using Windows file share ,but how to make it work for delivering to emails..
I am wanting to set-up a subscription to e-mail my reports in MS Word format (either .doc or .rtf) and I do not have the option on my company's report server version.
I have read that it is possible, though I don't have the option. Is this a change to report server, or maybe is our version not updated?
I can e-mail the report out in the following formats:
XML File with report data
CSV (comma delimited)
TIFF File
Acrobat (PDF) file
Web Archive (default)
Excel
Let me know if I am just expecting too much, or if there is something that needs to be updated on our report server.
I've set up DB mail and sent a test e-mail and that comes through fine.
I set up an Operator with email Name: DWhelpton@k-and-s.com;MWeaver@k-and-s.com

When the job runs and fails, I do not get an e-mail and I get the following exception in the db mail log:

I keep getting a generic "Error Sending Mail" error. For testing purposes I am just trying to send using my own email account. What goes in the SMTP Server box in the connection manager? I have tried:
A - the exchange server address (SOMETHING.us.company.com) B - The SMTP properties I see when I look at the properties of my email address: (my.name@abcd.efgh.company.com) C - Just the end portion of the SMTP properties: (abcd.efgh.company.com) D - My email address (my.name@company.com)
I don't know what to enter, or what is giving me such a generic error message.

I have been having a problem trying to connect to a SQL Server.

I want to set a Report Parameter on a field. The Report Parameter is called 'filter'. In the statement I put the Report Parameter in the WHERE-part: WHERE ([DatabaseName$TableName].[FieldName] = @filter). After this I set the 'Available values' on the Report Parameter in the lay-out to Non-queried. When the report is running, no problems.
But.....
Now I want to set 'Available values' on 'From Query' and refer to the data set, so the user can choose on which value he want to filter. But now, after running the preview the following error displays: Error 1 [rsInvalidReportParameterDependency] The report parameter €˜filter€™ has a DefaultValue or a ValidValue that depends on the report parameter €œfilter€?. Forward dependencies are not valid.
Why can't I set the Report Parameter to 'From Query'? Anyone any suggestions???

I'm working with a small ISP/Hosting company and we set up a development server with NT, Site Server, SQL 6.5, and Site Site Commerce Edition. It has been working fine, but the other night their network guy assigned a new IP address to the NT server.
Now SQL server can't talk to/find the NT server. Any time you try to look at anything in Enterprise Manager, it throws the error:
DBLibrary - Server is unavailable or does not exist...general network error.
We can't figure out how/where to tell SQL Server that NT has a new IP address, and get it all working again.

Hi all, I have a problem is that I cannot perform the transacional replication from one server (ms-sql2k) to other server (mssqlserver).
The error show below : Log Reader Agent - Is not a valid win32 application.
I try to setup another server (mssql2k) to do the same thing, there is no error appeared. Therefore, I have doubt that the name of the computer using "-" will have problem. Or the registry of (ms-sql2k) may have problem because it had wrongly installed personal edition and re-installed the standard verions afterwards.
