I am having an issue with generating a table for an report on the fly. I have been referring to the example on www.gotreportviewer.com and their example works fine but when i attempt to do my own version (by adding the table, I get the following error:
The report definition is not valid. Details: The element 'TableColumns' in namespace 'http://schemas.microsoft.com/sqlserver/reporting/2005/01/reportdefinition' has incomplete content.
List of possible elements expected: 'http://schemas.microsoft.com/sqlserver/reporting/2005/01/reportdefinition:TableColumn'.
From my understanding 'TableColumns' was not expected even though i reference it correctly in my code and I it is defined in the ReportDefinition. It also causes no problems for the example from the above website.
When publish report define file (SSRS2008 ) to SSRS2008 server , it throws that the report definition is not valid. But I use VS2008 deploy it and  it is succeeded to publish to SSRS2008 Server. Why ?

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 have a 2005 .Net 2.0 solution that includes two projects, a windows project and a Reporting Services project. The report viewer is apart of the windows project and I am wanting to open reports in the RS project but keep getting a 'the report definition has not been specified' error.
I set the ReportPath to point to the physical path of the RS project but it does no good.
Anyone have any idea how to run a report that is not apart of the project?
I am using the open source RDL generator project to create report definitions at runtime.
However, the RDL generator appears to generate code in an old rdl format.
When I copy the XML code into my report, I get the following message: "The file Report1.rdl must be converted to the current report definition format. After it has been coverted, you cannot edit this file with previous versions of Report Designer. Do you want to convert this file?"
After I convert the file, the report looks great.
The problem is that I don't want to have to copy the XML code to the report everytime and run this conversion. Is there any way to run the conversion from Visual Studio in my program? Then the XML code would be right from the get-go.
The definition of report xxx is invalid. More than one data set, data region, or grouping in the report has the name €˜CustomerName€™. Data set, data region, and grouping names must be unique within a report.
I am doing a simple report from the TFS warehouse - and a single group with 1 detail line. The layout was done and it worked fine - then I deployed it and it works on the deployed site - but has stopped working in the Solution itself !!
I've even removed the Table and all fields from the Layout - and the Preview still gives the error.
I would like to know if there is a way to maintain the history of changes to the reports that have been published to the report server?
I know that the report definitions get saved onto ReportServer database. But let's say a user makes a change to the published report and then saves it back to the server. And that the latest change was incorrect and I have to revert back to the previous version of the published report. Is there a way to do that? Does the report server maintain a history of previous versions.
There is a history for each report and I think that corresponds to the history of report executions (output data). But I am talking about the history of actual report definition.
To use Reporting Services as a rendering engine I want to configure a local user on the server that has only the minimum set of permissions and user rights. The server is W2K3 SP2 and SQL 9.0.3200.
In particular, this local user has been removed from the local "Users" group and so is the "Authenticated Users" built-in group. In Reporting Services, it is mapped to a role that only has the "Execute Report Definitions" task permission.
Then, following the details in http://support.microsoft.com/kb/812614/ (Default permissions and user rights for IIS 6.0) I added all file security and local user rights required for "Users" and also granted and propagated "Read&Execute" on the "Reporting Services" folder and verified this using "Effective Permissions" on the ReportService2005.asmx file.
However, I still get 401 Unauthorized, also after a complete restart of all related machines and services.
Once I add the user or "Authenticated Users" back to "Users" everything works fine.
What permissions might I be missing? Where could I find those permission requirements documented?
I tried analyzing the 401 using auditing file and object access security but to no avail. There are no Failure audit entries in the Security log.
How can I investigate the minimum permission set?
What is the risk of leaving the user in the "Users" local group?
I've got a report model I am trying to move from a development server to a production server. I published it to my development RS, exported the SMDL file, then uploaded it to the production server. At that point, I tried assigning the data source to the model and got the error:
When i try to restore the encrypt key to reporting service getting the below error.The version of the report server database is either in a format that is not valid, or it cannot be read. The found version is '147'. The expected version is 'C.0.9.45'I found the table in Database  called DBUpgrdaeHistory
It is possible to get the definition of an index in a script? I want the "Create index..." string so I can drop and recreate the index in a single statement. You can do it in the Query Analyzer object browzer with the "Script object..." options.
Hello, i would like to know if it's possible to generate automatically a word document or an excel document that will contain all the metadata definition, for example containing the source columns names, their datatype, and the destination with their datatypes, so that it would easy to create a data dictionnary .
I'm tasked with creating POCO (C# Class Object) and XML definitions for three different kinds of records coming from my input file. The problem is that I'm not sure how to do this within the SSIS framework. It seems to me that I can somehow define a class and include XML element tags in the definition, but I'm not sure where to look/who to ask/how to do that!
The goal is to be able to assign the data types and class attributes for various parts of each input record based on position, and to serialize the data as XML (and therefore my inputs to my Data Flow will be XML objects instead of a flat file, as I had been doing it...).
Can anyone point me at a good tutorial? Or a simple example?
Hello,I'm using Visual Studio 2005 with ADO.Net 2.0 but I am missing a definition for the sqlcommands' object "ExecuteRow"oCommand = new System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand();oCommand.ExecuteRow() ----------------------------> this is the missing definitionAny ideas anyone ???
I've got a table that gets updated with live-data constantly throughout the day. I've got to run some statistical analysis on the data in this table based off of the value of one of the columns. The column can be 4 values, but I'm only looking to analyze data for rows containing one of two of the 4 total values. IETable |Status| more data....||1|......| |2|......||3|......||4|......| |1|......||4|......| I want to only analyze the data of rows with 1 and 4 as values. I don't care about 2 or 3... I was thinking of using a Trigger, but I'm not aware of a way to analyze the data that fires the Trigger.Ideally, I'd like to do something likeCREATE TRIGGER analyze ON table AFTER INSERT WHERE column = '1' OR column = '4' AS 'Trigger sql here'Is this possible?
We are trying to create a view that references lengths in both metres and feet.
What we want to do is to create a baselength column which either holds the value of the metres column or calculates the metric value of the feet column if there is no value in the metric column.
We can do all the maths for the calculations etc, it is just putting the IF statement into the view to test the values that we are struggling with.
During work with creating, updating or deleting objects in a database, we use explicit name of the objects, for example DROP PROCEDURE myProc. By what the method can I avoid using the explicit name and get something like this: DROP PROCEDURE @myProc or DROP PROCEDURE id_myProc?
Plesae tell me the MSSQL Server equivalent of the below MySQL query .create table temp2(a varchar(23) comment 'male m');What is the use of specifying a keyword 'comment' in the column definition. Will it make any difference
I have set up a couple of views for a user but they want to be able to see the database table columns by doing right click on table and getting the columsn.
I tried to give the permissions to database by right clicking on database and doing the user and giving view defintion.
-- [TABLEA] contains no columns that can be inserted or the current user does not have permissions on that object.
I have a Live Database as well as the Test database with the same Definition
now i need to write a SQL to check identity of these two database tables,
i mean i need to check if the Test Database has got the Same Table definition as Live Database table definition ? In the same way how do i check for the Stored peocedures ?
I want to create a view on the table "workorder" that contains a serial id "woid". Another table, "wo_comment" contains multiple comments for each "woid".
I would like to create a view view_workorder with a column "allcomments" that is basically a concatenation of all the comments within the table "comment".
Table: workorder has columns: woid, startdate (plus many others) Table: wo_comment has columns: woid, comment, sequence
Desired View: view_workorder has columns: woid, startdate, allcomments
I tried to create a view as follows but get errors concerning the "CURSOR" statement making me wonder if I can use declarations and CURSORS within a view?
create view [workorder_view] as ( Select w.woid, w.startdate, cast( DECLARE @all_comments nvarchar(4000), @curr_comment nvarchar(256) DECLARE wo_comment_cur CURSOR FOR SELECT woc.Comments FROM WO_Comment as woc WHERE woc.woid = w.woid OPEN wo_comment_cur FETCH NEXT FROM wo_comment_cur INTO @curr_comment WHILE (@@FETCH_STATUS = 0) BEGIN Set @all_comments = @all_comments + @curr_comment FETCH NEXT FROM wo_comment_cur INTO @curr_comment END CLOSE wo_comment_cur; DEALLOCATE wo_comment_cur; as nvarchar(80000)) as COMMENTS
I need to keep a table indicating the number of "transactions" or Logical Units of Work (LUW) against each database each day. I know transactions are defined with a Begin and End statement but most of our software is from 3rd party vendors who don't use begin and end. How can I determine how many transactions (not necessarily I/O although that might be nice in the future) has occurred against each database. Books On Line does not address the question of transactions other than to say use the Begin/End statments. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance Bill Bergen (1-302-636-6814)
