Problem Using Oracle Data Source From SSRS
Sep 3, 2007
Hi,
I'm new to SSRS but have a problem connecting to Oracle. I have placed my reports upon a reporting server but the shared data connection isn't working and I'm confused as to why. I have specified the name, connection type as "Oracle", set the correct user id and password for the credentials and the connection string as for example 'Data Source=oracleExample;Unicode="True"'. I also have set the correct entry in the tnsnames.ora file for this datasource, example:
"oracleExample =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 12.23.45.23)(PORT = 3425))
)
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SID = oracle)
)
)"
Unfortunately I receive the following error when trying to connect.
"
An error has occurred during report processing.
Cannot create a connection to data source 'oracleDataSource'.
For more information about this error navigate to the report server on the local server machine, or enable remote errors
"
I'm mystified as to what the issue is. Any ideas? Would restarting the report server pick up the tnsnames.ora file? I have this working locally using report designer.
Any help, much appreciated.

I'm attempting to use SSRS (2005) with my Oracle RDB database (old DEC RDB), using an ODBC driver. I am able to create a report, and view data, but I need to add some report parameters to filter the data. When I attempt to use parameters in the query, I either get a syntax error, or a message that my odbc connection cannot use "named" parameters, and that I should use "unnamed" parameters.
Here is a snippet of my sql query:
SELECT Application_Notes.Lease_Application, Application_Notes.Followup_Code,
<...>
FROM
Application_Notes Join
<...>
WHERE
(Application_Notes.Tickler_date >= {ts '2008-02-08 00:00:00'} AND
Application_Notes.Tickler_Date < {ts '2008-02-09 00:00:00'} )
The "Tickler_Date" field is a binary date field. The above syntax is pulled from a Crystal Report, which I am considering moving over to SSRS. Ideally, I would like the user to enter a single RunDate parameter, and have the query do the following:
Where (Application_Notes.Tickler_Date >= @RunDate and
Application_Notes.Tickler_Date < (@RunDate + 1 day) )
If the user has to enter two dates, that will be fine, but I can't seem to get past the errors.
Thanks,
Paul

Currently, I am working SSIS project that its data source from ORACLE 9i. I installed full SSIS in server and also ORACLE. So, I have three connections available in server. They are the following below.
Oracle Client
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle
Oracle Provider for OLE DB
The problem is the three component can not recognize parameterization and ORACLE store procedures.
Finally, I executed the store procedures by ORACLE package from command prompt (bat files). So, the command execute from SSIS package.

Dear Sir,
We met a problem when we move on Oracle 10g from Oracle 9i in the loading process. The scenario is that SQL Server as Data Warehouse, SSIS as ETL tool. But the length of string column as data source table in SSIS grows up 4 times when using Oracle 10g. For example, ABC table x varchar2(8) --> x varchar(32) -->x varchar(8) --> x varchar(8) {Oracle 10g SSIS(source) SSIS(target) SQL Server}
This doesn€™t influence the loaded result (I did not find any problem until now), but that influence loading performance and we worry about potential problems.
Do you have any idea or have you met the same problem before?
Thanks,
Jacob

help - I€™ve been stuck on this for days.
My software vendor limits the sessions to one (1) per log-in to Oracle 9i and I€™m having tons of problems trying to extract data through an SSIS package. Everytime I run the package SSIS already logged in and the OLE DB source fails because of the sessions exceeded error.
Is there any way to limit the connection to just when I need the data to pump across on the OLE DB source?
Thank you very much for any help.
Regads,
Nestor

Hi,
I have several oracle reports which running in SharePoint Integrated mode. They were working well when the SharePoint server and report server in same machine. But after that the report server move out to another machine, we got the problem with connection to oracle databasen. Reports with Sql server as data source has no problem at all.
We have installa both oracle client and odp.net in both machines, and tried to give Network Service full access right in
Bin catalog in oracle client but nothing helps. Please help!!!!!
An error has occurred during report processing. (rsProcessingAborted)

Was wondering if there was a best practice minimum permissions for creating a SQL login to use when setting up a new shared Data source for SSRS report manager?
Something along the lines of them being a data read for the DB and permissions to update tempdb?
Would have thought it not advisable to have the login be able to update the main db...

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

In many DTS packages I have used parameterised queries for incremental loads from Oracle database sources using the Microsoft ODBC Driver for Oracle.
Now I want to migrate these packages to SSIS, but the OLE DB connection for Oracle does not support parameters.
I cannot use the "SQL command from variable" data access mode because of the 4000 character limitation on the length of string variables and expressions.
Am I missing an obvious workaround?

I have an issue when using Report Manager for viewing reports that use a certain Oracle data source. When viewing the reports in Report Designer the reports display without problems. But when trying to display the reports with Report Manager, after deploying the reports to the Report Server, I now get the following error message:
blablabla....ORA-12705: invalid or unknown NLS parameter value specified
For testing purposes I am running Report Designer, Report Server and Report Manager locally on a PC with Windows XP. I am using Reporting Services 2005, IIS 6, Visual Studio 2005, an Oracle 9.x client and an Oracle 9.x (not 100% sure) database that is hosted on a remote server.
Earlier I got an error message that stated "ORA-12154: TNS: could not resolve the connect identifier specified". Access rights to some Oracle folders for the Network service account did the trick here but then I got the "NLS parameter" error message. What I have tried to do is removing the NLS_LANG register variable and also modified the value of the variable so that it matches the value of the NLS_LANG variable on the server that hosts the Oracle database, but none of them have worked. Any ideas?
Maybe this is an issue that is more appropriate in an Oracle forum but what the heck..the problem could reside in Reporting Services..
Thanks, Stefan

This is a question regarding the use of an XML data source within an SSRS sub-report. This is a two server configuration consisting of SSRS 2K5 and a separate file server exposing xml files over http, IIS 5.
Is it possible, and if yes how, to configure the xml data source to use the application pool identity instead of the current caller identity? I can not turn off impersonation within SSRS. I need to revert to use the W3WC, app pool, process identity within the xml data source. I do not want to configure Kerberos delegation and the file server€™s IIS virtual directory must be set for windows security.

I have a vision of a beautifully interlocked Business Intelligence system in which I load dimensional fact tables through SSIS, build aggregations in SSAS cubes, and quickly and easily generate SSRS reports using the cubes as data marts.
I am now a month into trying to implement this vision and Reality is stomping all over it. Primarily, I am running into issues with the "cube as a data mart" idea. Each cube is taking up an additional gig or two of space, report queries against them seem to take longer than a straight SQL query against my fact tables, and I am running into serious problems trying to pass time-related calculations such as Year-To-Date to my reports.
Has anyone else tried setting up a BI system that uses cubes as the primary drivers for their reports? Have you seen any benefits to doing it that way? Or should I generate most of my reports through the SQL tables?
I'm nearing the point-of-no-return in choosing my final methodology, and any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Hi,
I'm trying to use query parameters with an Oracle OLEDB Source in a data
flow task and I'm having problems.
I've tried formatting the query each of the following ways...
--
select
frq_code,
frq_name,
update_frq,
uptime_frq
from frequency_bcs
where update_frq > ?
and update_frq <= ?
--
Parameters cannot be extracted from the SQL command. The provider might not
help to parse parameter information from the command. In that case, use the
"SQL command from variable" access mode, in which the entire SQL command is
stored in a variable.
Additional information
---> Provider cannot derive parameter information and SetParameterInfo has
not been called. (Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle).

Is there a command that can be used to set the account and password of an SSRS data source? I want to use a datasource that uses the option "(windows) credentials stored securely in the report server". The password for the account to be used can not be known by any humans (or we have to kill them after) so we want to set it programmatically. Is this possible via a command?

I'm new to SSRS 2005, and having a very hard time getting something I thought would be trivial to work. It would appear that if you want to report from XML data, there are a variety of ways to do so.
I would just like to use a simple document that was created by serializing to disk. I don't even have a fancy query. Can someone help me with an start-to-end from which I can build upon and add complexity? Thanks.
C:XmlDataCustomers.xml contains a single Customers table; 3 Customer rows with an ID, FirstName, LastName. (I'll try pasting it as a follow-up).
My DataSource type is 'XML' and the ConnectionString is the simplest of URLs "C:XmlDataCustomers.xml". Credentials are set to 'none'. My suspision is that I am not even succeding at creating a valid DataSource. I don't know if it has to do with the XML, the location of the file, the syntax of the ConnectionString or what.
Assuming I get this right, I want all rows and all columns, so I assumed an empty query on the DataSet would be appropriate.
I've found a bunch of examples - but none seam to be this trivial - they all involve using a web service, embedded data in the query, or creating a Customer Data Extension (CDE) to provide the document. I've tried converting these samples to use my DataSource, but so far no luck.
Your assistance is appreciated.

I have inherited a SSRS setup and am trying to do some clean up. Problem is I cannot see the Data Sources Folder. I am setup as SA and SU on both the RS Server and SQL Server. When I go check the catalog in SQL db it does truly exist as well as a number of data sources in the folder that reports are currently using. How can I see this folder?

I want to run SSRS report directly by connecting Excel as a data source. The report runs properly from SSDT, but when it is run from Report manager, some users cannot access the Excel connection and the report execution fails. I am using SSRS 2012 and Excel 2010.I have created the ODBC data connection in SSRS and when I use 'Windows Integrated Security' option for credentials, the connection gets successful. But the problem is that all users does not have permissions to access the Excel inline, but they should get the report working.How can I store the credentials to access the Excel in SSRS with a specific username and password?

I cannot get this error resolve either for myself or any users, and I'm actually part of the Admin group! Furthermore, a user with whom I'm tring allow to view this report keeps getting prompted for their windows username and password. I thought that since this datasource was set to Windows Authentification that it would just pass it through?
I'm pulling my hair out at this point:

Hi All,
It's been a while since I post here. Anyway, I'm trying to call a SSIS package as my data source for SQL reporting service but I keep getting the error "Cannot create a connection to data source 'DsSSIS'.
My DsSSIS consists of the following in the connection string.
="/file c:FarmBillTesting.dtsx /Set Package.Variables[User::FilterValue].Properties[Value];" & Parameters!FilterValue.Value.ToString()
I have tried everything that I know to make this work but I have been able to do so. Any help from the group would be great.
Thanks

Hi,
I'm am writing a report in SSRS 2005 on a local PC that uses cubes in AS 2000 on another server as a datasource. I am using the Microsoft SQL Server Analysis Services Extension (OLAP9) to connect to the cubes using windows authentication. I can save and preview the report in visual studio and publish the reports on IIS on my local PC with no problems but when I go to view the report in IE, I get the following error:
An error has occurred during report processing.
Query execution failed for data set 'dataset'.
Unable to recognize the requested property ID 'ReturnCellProperties'.
Have read various articles on the net with no conclusive explanation.
I have seen another post on this forum that suggests using OLEDB for Analysis Services instead but if I do this it doesn't allow me to use the MDX visual query designer. Creating the report using OLAP9 then changing to OLEDB and pasting in the query code doesn't work so well either.
I went and read http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms159219.aspx about data sources supported by SSRS 2005 and it should be ok.
I am using sql server 2005 with the latest service pack 2.
Any ideas?

Hi,
We are in the process of upgrading a SQL Server 2000 database to 2005. For the mean time, we're trying it out on SQL Server Express 2005. My question is, can reports in SSRS 2005 pull data from SQL Server 2000 in case both are installed side by side in the same machine and the 2000 version is the default instance while the 2005 express edition is the named instance?
Thanks a lot!

I am building a webapp that calls an SSRS instance to display a report based on another servers web service.I can make a call from the ssrs server using this in the RDL:
<Query>
<Method Namespace="http://machine/webservices" Name="HelloUser">
               <Parameters>
                               <Parameter Name="user">
                               <DefaultValue>Craig</DefaultValue>
                               </Parameter>
               </Parameters>
</Method>
<ElementPath IgnoreNamespaces="true">*</ElementPath>
</Query>
This works no problem. but.. I want to have the user parameter "Craig" be a parameter passed in from the web app. If it were a regular SQL data source you would put @user in the query. How do you do it with XML text queries?

I am using execute sql task to run a stored procedure in oracle database which returns a resultset. This works. Now I need to send the ouput to a destination table in a sql database. Should I use for each loop to pick the resultset and insert it into the destination one by one (which I dont think is a great idea) or is there a better way to accomplish this task (in data flow task) ?
When I use dataflow task instead of execute sql task, the main issue is I am not able to see the output columns when I execute an oracle stored procedure, but when I see the preview I can see the resultset . But I can see the output columns for a sql server stored procedure.
