Installation :: Sql Server 2008 Reporting Services What Type Of Restrictions Will There Be
Jan 15, 2010
Question on installing SQL Server 2008 reporting services.
I have Visual Studio 2008 express edition installed, with the corresponding SQL Server 2008 express edition installed. Is it practical to use SQL Server 2008 Reporting Services with the express edition, or is it just to restrictive with the express edition to be practical? Keep in mind I just need to use it with my local database connection. What type of restrictions will there be, i.e. what can I and what can't I do with express edition? What would be the more ideal setup and what would the costs generally look like?

I am having some trouble upgrading an existing SQL Server 2000 Reporting Services installation from an old server to a new one commissioned for this purpose, which is running SQL Server 2008 Reporting Services. I have been following the instructions here: [URL] but after trying to connect with reporting services 2008, i get this 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 'C.0.6.54'. The expected version is '147'. (rsInvalidReportServerDatabase) before starting the process, I ran upgrade advisor and got back the following results:
Description Setup can upgrade a SQL Server 2000 Reporting Services instance that uses a SQL Server 2000 Database Engine in the same instance. However, upgrade is blocked if the report server database is in a different instance, on a remote instance, or runs on a remote SQL Server 2005 instance in SQL Server 2000 compatibility mode.
*****
*note, our reporting services IS in the same instance as the SQL Server 2000 database engine. However, upgrade advisor still reported that this instance can not be automatically upgraded.
*****
Corrective Action Choose either approach to continue with the upgrade: Upgrade the Database Engine instance on the remote computer before upgrading Reporting Services. The server cannot be in SQL Server 2000 compatibility mode after upgrade. Move the reportserver and reportservertempdb to a SQL Server 2005 or SQL Server 2008 Database Engine instance, and then use the Reporting Services Configuration tool to connect the report server to the database.
so, I went with option 2, move the database then connect. I have: -backed up the ReportServer and ReportServerTempDB databases from the old server, transferred them to the new and restored them to the 2008 Server as ReportServerOld. -I then renamed the old database to ReportServer and ReportServerTempDB, as this is required to use the database as a source apparently. I had to of course change the existing database names to ReportServerNew to perform the rename. I backed up the symetric key for this installation using the rskeymgmt utility...............

SQL server 2005
I have created a reports project through SQL Business intelligence studio, There is shared data source in it. The name of the sharedata source is MyReport.rds.I have added two new items to the project (reports folder) with names Survey.rdl and myProjectReport.rdl.
Before deploying it, I have specified three properties ( Throgh the project properties)
1) TargetDataSourceFolder=DataSources
2)TargetReportFolder= reports
3)TargetServerURL=http://localhost/reportserver and deployed it.
When I view it in the browser through
http://localhost/Reports/Pages/Folder.aspx
I get my folder called reports, and when I click on it I can see two reports, it works till this stage.
I want to use the same report in Visual studio 2008 so I have done the following in VS 2008
Visual Studio 2008
1) Added a page
2) Added Reportviewer Control to the page
3) Click Properties of Reportviewer and Choose <server Rreport>
4) Set Report Server URL: http://localhost/reportserver
5) set Report Path= /reports/
It comes up with the following error:
The path of the item '/reports/' is not valid. The full path must be less than 260 characters long; other restrictions apply. If the report server is in native mode, the path must start with slash. (rsInvalidItemPath)

I have an ASP.NET application running on IIS6 on a Windows 7 machine. I also have a SQL2008 R2 with Reporting Service.
My site is purely internal, so to make the life of the users easier I discarded a logon page by using Windows Authentication in IIS and validating the username on my default page.
I configured the Reporting Services using the Reporting Services Configuration Manager, using Network Services, and I can follow both the Web Service URL as well as the Report Manager URL just fine, all is happy. Untill... I try to load a report.
I have an aspx page with a Reportviewer control that just blatantly refuses to display the report. I know I have the report server and report path correct because I am able to manipulate and set report parameters dynamically. However, instead of the report displaying, I get a lovely message "A network related or instance specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accesible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error 25 - Connection String is not valid) Now, I looked up the error and everything is set up as it should be. My NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICES users has all the privileges it needs, my server allows remote connections, TCP and named pipes are enabled...

Report viewer from SQL reporting services in VS 2008 report control If I create a new report in VS 2008 they have a .rdlc extension and work correctly.
I have some reports that I was using in SQL reporting services. Extensions are .rdl and want to get them to work with VS 2008.
I copied the rdl files and the .rdl.data files over to VS 2008 (SP1) project but when I go to select the report in the control it does not see the file (I assume it is looking for a .rdlc file)
I tried rename the file to .rdlc and loaded the file up and got
The report definition has an invalid target namespace [URL] which cannot be upgraded.
I see this
[URL]
[URL]
It says
"RDL files are fully compatible with the ReportViewer control runtime. However, RDL files do not contain some information that the design-time of the ReportViewer control depends on for automatically generating data-binding code. By manually binding data, RDL files can be used in the ReportViewer control."
But the link for how to manual bind the data is broken.

I have a report (Reporting Services) integrated into an ASP.NET that shows dropdownlists to select report parameter values. The dropdownlists are populated using direct database selects, though I see the report RDL files do contain the paramter values and datasets as defined in the report designer.Is it possible to obtain the report parameters "available values" in ASP.NET to populate the dropdownlists? This would avoid some code duplication.
Update.If the parameter doesn't use a query for available values, the following works:
foreach (ValidValue value in this.ReportViewerControl.ServerReport.GetParameters()["myParameter"].ValidValues) {
this.DropDownListControl.Items.Add(new ListItem(value.Label, value.Value));
}

Recently I had a weird problem while trying to install SQL Server Reporting Service in my local PC. I am using Windows Vista Home Premium and I wanted to configure SSRS in my PC. During the installation, the setup wizard listed all the services that we want to install and I found that only Reporting Server checkbox option was disabled and I wondered why??? I thought it may be becuase of some installation problem and tried again and its useless... I googled lot of sites for 3 days and finally found that due to some IIS issues, it is not possible to install Reporting Server in Vista Home Premium version. Reporting Server needs some specific IIS features to be installed in the machine.
But unfortunately those features are not available for Home Premium users which in term restricts users not to install reporting server in our PCs... Also, Microsoft has accepted it as an issue and its not possible to get it install in Home Premium...just wanted to share and might be useful for someone like me.

I am working on the migration of the server. Our new server is Windows server 2008 with IIS7.0 I have a great difficulty in browsing the pages hosted in virtual directories. I have followed the proper steps of creating a virtual directories and converting them into applications. But when i try to browsing the pages of the virtual directory, i get the 404 error. Note: The .Net Framework 4.0 is installed on the server and the web applications which i am trying to configure in the virtual directories are developed in Visual Studio 3.0. Even the http://localhost also don't work.
