How To Create Pdf Reports From Sql Server In MVC 2 Application
Dec 8, 2010
I want to be able to somehow get reports out of my Sql Server database in an MVC application. I could have developed a way to do that using xml and then transform it to fo and rendered it via an fo processor to pdf. But that would require being able to have the fo processor installed on the web server, and I'm using a web host, so that's probably not going to work.
So I've seen Reporting Services mentioned here and there. Does that include the possibility to create pdfs? And if so, how do you use it in an MVC application? I tried before to mix webforms into MVC application (if that's necessary as I've seen implied) but couldn't make it work. The routing didn't seem to recognize the web form page...
Or is there any other easier way to create pdf reports from Sql Server data? I should also mention that I only use Linq (and the Entity Framework) to access data, so hopefully there is a solution that doesn't require me to know Sql stored procedures etc

i have created several crystal report for my web application, i need to use my application to connect different database on the server which has no problem in the application but when i open the reports created using crystal report, it still connected to the database configured. how can i fix this, is there other way than to use another copy of the application and configure it manually at the each of the reports. i do have pass the logon information to the report using vb.net in which i get the info from the web.config
Dim A As ConnStr = New ConnStr
With ConnInfo
.ServerName = A.getServerName()
.DatabaseName = A.getDBName()
.UserID = A.getUser()
.Password = A.getPwd()
End With
my problem is how to make crystal report to uses all the logon info passed and not use the infor set in the report file

I have an vb 2005 asp application that will show a crystal report based upon a user selection which is a job number.On my development machine all work fine and the report is being shown every time.When I publish the application the web server it works for most part. Every so often for selected job numbers the report that will not display. When this happens there is a text being displayed above the business object banner:The Report Application Server failed I have checked the event log and there is no entries. Also there is no stack trace. The application seems to complete normally. I have compared the registry entries in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWARECrystal Decisions and they are the same id evelopment and production. I am referencingCrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine version11.5.3700.0I am clueless and hoping that someone could suggest where to start looking

Iam working on a banking web application developed in asp.net 3.5 and MS SQL Server 2008.My problem is to create reports including some pre-formatted reports,summary reports and some detail reports.I want to know what is the best technique to create these reports.I don't want to use third party reporting tools as they have to be configured on the web server and some times they takes lot of time in generating reports due to their complex structure.Since its a web application having large recordsets so i need a consistent solution keeping in mind the performance and complex nature of the reports which might be demanded by the banks.Can anyone help me please in this regard?

I have worked on a timesheet application application in MVC 2 for internal use in our company. Now other small companies have showed interest in the application. I hadn't considered this use of the application, but it got me interested in what it might imply.
I believe I could make it work for several clients by modifying the database (Sql Server accessed by Entity Framework model). But I have read some people advocating multiple databases (one for each client).
Intuitively, this feels like a good idea, since I wouldn't risk having the data of various clients mixed up in the same database (which shouldn't happen of course, but what if it did...). But how would a multiple database solution be implemented specifically?
I.e. with a single database I could just have a client register and all the data needed would be added by the application the same way it is now when there's just one client (my own company).
But with a multiple database solution, how would I create a new database programmatically when a user registers? I have done all database stuff using Linq to Sql, and I am not very familiar with regular SQL programming...
how this could be done (as well as input on whether it is a good idea or if a single database would be better for some reason).
EDIT:
I have also seen discussions about the single database alternative, suggesting that you would then add ClientId to each table... But wouldn't that be hard to maintain in the code? I would have to add "where" conditions to a lot of linq queries I assume... And I assume having a ClientId on each table would mean that each table would have need to have a many to one relationship to the Client table? Wouldn't that be a very complex database structure? As it is right now (without the Client table) I have the following tables (1 -> * designates one to many relationship):
Customer 1 -> * Project 1 -> * Task 1 -> * TimeSegment 1 -> * Employee
Also, Customer has a one to many relationship directly with TimeSegment, for convenience to simplify some queries.
This has worked very well so far. Wouldn't it be possible to simply have a Client table (or UserCompany or whatever one might call it) with a one to many relationship with Customer table? Wouldn't the data integrity be sufficient for the other tables since the rest is handled by the relationships?

In your opinion, what's the best way to create the server side to a pure Javascript application with ASP.NET? WCF rendering JSON? IHttpHandler? Update Like GMail, that runs in the browser (with a lot of Javascript) and submit and receive data with Ajax, for example.

I'm getting so frustrated with not being able to find the answers to my extremely simple (or so it seems) questions.I'm using Visual Studio 2008,and I am trying to use a non-local database as my data source.This must be possible to do somehow,but I can't figure out how.It wants to be able to connect to a database,and it's not going to be able to.
with a workaround?Would it be easier to just make an asp.net page with a gridview than trying to make an actual crystal report?

I am considering using Crystal Report 2008 as my tool of creating reports on my webpage.The only problem which I'm facing is that I have no control of the remote server which hosts my site (besides uploading files). I can't run a MSI to deploy the CR runfiles.I can't find anywhere in the CR user manual of how to deploy the runtime files without running the msi, and I'm not even sure it's possible.Have anyone deployed CR 2008 without running the MSI and without having to register any files?
