SQL Reporting :: How To Get ReportViewer To Use A Relative Local File Path
Jul 1, 2010
I'm venturing into the world of Microsoft Reporting Services for the first time. So far it's gone pretty well, but I do have a couple of questions. The biggest one is, can I get the ReportViewer to use a relative path to my .rdlc file instead of the full path name that it seems insistent on using? When I'm developing locally oh my desktop, my filepath is c:inetputwwwrootcascadewritingwritingresults.rdlc; however, when I move this to production the filepath will become :websitecascadewritingwritingresults.rdlc. The .aspx page that my ReportViewer is embedded in resides in the same directory as the .rdlc file itself, so I was hoping I could just simply chop off the path altogether and reference the file name, but when I do ReportViewer fusses at me and says it can't find the file.
An error occurred during local report processing.
The report definition for report 'c:inetpubwwwrootCascadeWritingResults.rdlc' has not been specified
Could not find file 'c:inetpubwwwrootCascadeWritingResults.rdlc'.
In case you need/want to see it, my code for the ReportViewer is below:

I am developing a web app containing an embedded Reportviewer control, a dropdownlist and Ajax TabContainer. The ReportViewer refreshes the report for every tab click in the TabContainer or for every SelectedIndexChanged event of the dropdownlist. The report I am generating is a 6-month trending report displaying statistical data for the last 6 months from the month and year selected in the dropdownlist. I have used Report Parameter to pass the selected date value (from dropdownlist) from the code to the Report (.rdlc). Using Expressions in report file I have displayed last 6 months names from the passing date value. The C# code looks like this.
ReportParameter p1 =
new
ReportParameter("ReportParameter1", [code]....
The problem is I am not able to set parameters more than once using SetParameters. I will need to pass the parameter value for (a)Everytime the dropdownlist item for month is changed (b) Everytime the TabContainer ActiveTab is changed (c) When the page loads for first time displaying the report for first time. Can someone advise how to pass different values for the same report parameter under different scenarios? Can we change the parameter value passed once it has been set using SetParameters?

I am trying to run a report in local mode and bind it at runtime to a simple List<string>; I have searched for a sample with no success so far, so could anyone give some hints? I know that a ReportDataSource can be a type that implements IEnumerable but I cannot figure out what field name should be used in the rdlc file? Suppose I bind the datasource at runtme (something like ReportViewer1.LocalReport.DataSources(Add new ReportDataSource("dsname", new List<string> { "John Smith", "Jane Smith" }))
can I still define my report definition file at design time, and bind a text box control to something like Fields[0] or the like? And on a different note, I also defined a static method without parameters that returns a generic list of some type; Yet if a go to Report - Data Sources menu option, I cannot see the method in the list of Project Data Sources.

I have a reportViewer control and I dynamically setting the report path and dataset in the page load event if it is not a post back. This first report displays without issue. However, when I attempt to change the report path / dataset via the onChange event from a dropdown list I get the following error:
A data source instance has not been supplied for the data source "Summary_DataTable1".
This code works fine and the summary report is displayed the first time the page is loaded.

I'm working with an ASP.net web application.I've written a user control called LocationSelector that has its own Javascript in an external .js file. In order to load that file, I use the following line of code:
ScriptManager.RegisterClientScriptInclude(this, typeof(LocationSelector), Guid.NewGuid().ToString(), "Controls/LocationSelector.js");
The problem is with "Controls/LocationSelector.js". As long as the page that uses the control is in the root directory of the application, everything works. However, as soon as I try to put this control in a page in a subdirectory, it can't load the Javascript file.

Question about paths while working in Visual Studio. In my master page I have some paths to load css files as well as javascript files.
My first question is if I use relative paths, should the relative path be from the location of the master page file? For example if I keep all my master page files in a folder off the site root called MasterPages should I assume that is the starting point for my relative paths to load the css files? If that master page is used to wrap an aspx file several directories down the tree is the hard coded relative path still valid?
Second question, is there a way to use absolute paths so that everything works on my local machine as well as when I move the files up to the webroot? For example my app path on my local machine may be localhost/myappdir/default.aspx but when i move the app to the server there is no myappdir and the default.aspx is in the webroot. I do not want to have to change paths in the files after they are moved up to the server. currently I have;
src="<%= VirtualPathUtility.ToAbsolute("~/lib/css/style.css")%>"
but this way Visual Studio cannot find the css file to update intellisence

I'm using a jQuery Menu in my Masterpage. This masterpage is used for several pages in the root directory of the webapplication. Now i have a page in a sub-directory and all the image-, stlyesheet and javascript-files paths are invalid there. I solved it almost by using servercontrols, tilde(~) and adding scriptreferences to the ScriptManager as you can see here:
[code]....
I could use absolute paths, but that would work only on the productive system and not on the development systems. Is there no other way to handle this?

I have this master page, that uses a few .js files and a flash animation.
the <script> and <object> tags that are used to embed these in the page take in relative paths as src. However, since the pages .aspx, i'll need to convert these into tilde paths, ie. somehow change the relative paths to tilde path (is this the absolute path?), so that i can use the master page in any of my pages in subfolders as well. if this question has been posted b4, kindly give me a link... i've not been able to find a solution.

When I write following code in my view
<% Url.Action("Logon") %>
the mvc framework generates
/Account/Logon ({controller}/{action})
as path.
'/Account/Logon' path is an absolute path. Is there a way to change is to a relative path, like Account/Logon or ../Account/Logon.
Also, when I use the Html.Beginform(), the mvc framework generates <form action="/account/logon"..., I want to change this to <form action="account/logon"...So, problem is that I want relative paths instead of absolute path.

I'm using ASP.NET with MVC 2 and have trouble translating a local file url to a server address. It would seem like a fairly simple and common task, but google searches gives me no good answers. (Perhaps i suck at searching)
I have a controller that takes a file from a html form in a view and saves it to disk. I need to return the real url of this file back to the View. Whatever method i use, I always get a string with the local path of the file instead of the http path.
I suspect the url might get translated to http address once the project has been deployed, but I really need the server address when debugging without having to hardcode anything.
Consider the following example in some controller method:
string url = Url.RequestContext.HttpContext.Server.MapPath("~/Content/Files/" + Path.GetFileName(file.FileName));
// outputs: "C:\Users\xxx\Documents\Visual Studio 2010\Projects\[ProjectName]\Content\Files\file.png"
// whereas i'd like something like "http://localhost/Content/Files/file.png" instead

I have a form where users can store some data for archived documents. All documents are ONLY in PDF format.
There are 2 things I would like to do:
1. there is a "file path" text box on the form. I would like to open a "browse file dialog" box when user clicks the textbox and then the user browses for the file (file is on the users local machine) and selects it. The full file path should be saved to the textbox as string (e.g. "c:archive2010document11122011.pdf"). Also I would like to "limit" the file browser dialog to only show PDF format files...
2. add a code behind command to open the file from the saved path+name (see 1.) in the user's default PDF viewer (Acrobat or Foxit)

I've got this app where I'm using an IHttpHandler to serve JSON data to my JavaScript method.
[code]....
This works fine on my "localhost" webserver, but I've also got a staging server for my clients to use. http://staging.infinitas.ws/ClientSite/
The problem that I'm having is that when the app is hosted on the staging server, the theSource is mapped incorrectly (contains /ClientSite/). I could do something like a String.Replace but I'm looking for a more elegant way of achieving this.

I am trying to get a FileStream from a relative path. The file is in my project, but when I try to do that it automatically appends C:\ in front of that.
1. Does the FileStream only works if the file is on a local Hard Dive?
2. Also if it works from the local hard drive, then does my application needs some permission to read the file from C Drive?

When I press start on my VS2010/Silverlight/C# project, it opens a new instance of the included webserver and opens my browser window so I can test the application. Unfortunately something has happened and I am not sure what it was.. The browser window now opens the starting page with a local machine path (C:...page.aspx) rather than the normal webserver path through http (http://localhost:33592/page.aspx). It is a Silverlight Navigation project using c#/asp.net code behind.

what it does at the moment is return an absolute path for example h:myfile . however, this is causing me problems because when browsing to the page, it is not returning the file i need because it is looking for a h: drive which the client machine does not have. so i was thinking i need to return a relative path so the not looking straight to the h: drive and rather it is just looking for the filename. i have also created this as a virtual directory on iis which is where is looks for the file location.
