Adding second instance of SSRS reporting features disabled

I am running SQL Server 2008 R2 server on windows 2008 server.
On the MSSQLServer instance, I already have Reporting services configured in Native mode.
I am trying to add another instance of SSRS in integrated mode. I have followed the steps shown below. The account used has administrator privilages on the server and the MSSQLServer instance.
When I am trying to select the reporting services, the features are disabled.
Any ideas on how I can solve this issue.
Thanks
Nate

Hello Nate,
You selected "Add feature to an existing instance" and in your existing instance SSRS is already installed; select "New instance" instead to install a new instance of SSRS.

SSRS reports on Azure.

Hi,
Is there a way to use SSRS reports on Azure. We have taken sql azure. Now from online we figured out that we need a separate vm with SQL server installed on it to get the SSRS reports. However when tried with web edition of sql server on vm it does not work.
We might have to go with enterprise / standards editions which on vm would cost more than 1000 dollars per month.
We any way have a sql azure instance taken up. Is there some cheaper and efficent solutions for this. we just need the ssrs reporting feature, work from Azure.
Thanks.
Sai.

Hello,
Based on the Features Supported by the Editions of SQL Server 2012 , SQL Server Reporting Services Web edition can only support data source with SQL Server web edition. If you want
to use SSRS report with Windows Azure SQL database, then you should use SQL Server enterprise/standards edition.
You can refer to the following page about the pricing:

Creating snapshot in SSRS 2008 R2 report will disable some parameters.

Hi guys.
I'm new to SSRS, so the question that I'm going to ask might sound stupid, hope you guys don't mind.
I have a few reports that display data based on the snapshot. I found out that some of the parameters on certain reports were disabled and some are not. When I removed the snapshot setting and display the report based on latest data, those disabled parameters
will be enabled again.
After some search from Google, I understand that when using snapshot, the parameters will be disabled. But in my case, not all parameters are disabled. And there is some reports with snapshot, all of their parameters are enabled. Please help me on this if
there is any settings that I need to do to enable all of the parameters.
Thanks and have a nice day.

Hi engloon,
According to your description, you want to enable parameters when creating a snapshot. Right?
In Reporting Services, Snapshots can be created manually or at scheduled intervals for any report that can run unattended. Furthermore, if the report uses parameters, you must specify default values to use when the report runs. You can specify stored credentials
and parameter values in the property pages for the report.
In this scenario, you may have default values for parameters in some reports so that it looks those reports have parameters enabled. So if you want to have snapshot rendered with parameter selection, you can specify the default values in Parameter tab. Please
follow the steps below:
Open Report Manager, and locate the report for which you want to modify parameter settings.
Hover over the report, and click the drop-down arrow.
In the drop-down menu, click Manage. This opens the General properties page for the report.
Select the Parameters tab. If the Parameters tab is not visible, the report does not contain parameters.

Add a Snapshot to Report History (Report Manager)

If you have any question, please feel free to ask.

SSRS report is consuming much more time to fetch data from DB even direct run SP takes less than a second

Hi,
we are using SQL SERVER 2008R2 X64 RTM version.
One of the SSRS report designed by developer is consuming much more time( 5 to 6 minutes ) to fetch data from DB. Even direct run of Stored Procedure (Called in report )takes less than a second to display the result set.
Please help.
Regards Naveen MSSQL DBA

Hi Naveen,
Based on my understanding, you spend a little time retrieving data with a stored procedure from database in dataset designer. However, it takes long time to run the report to display the data, right?
In Reporting Services, the total time to generate a report include TimeDataRetreval, TimeProcessing and TimeRendering. In your scenario, since you mentioned retrieving data costs a little time, you should check the table
Executionlog3 in the ReportServer database to find which section costs most of time, TimeProcessing or TimeRendering. Then you can refer to this article to optimize your report:
Troubleshooting Reports: Report Performance.
Besides, if parameters exist in the report, you should declare variables inside of the stored procedure and assign the incoming parameters to the variables. For more information, please refer to the similar thread:
Fast query runs slow in SSRS.
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.

Second max/min in ssrs report builder expression

I need to do conditional formatting on second max/min in an ssrs report builder table.
Can i get it in an expression ?

Hi AshishSinghal84,
Based on my understanding, you want to perform conditional formatting on the second maximum or minimum value in Report Builder.
In Reporting Services, there is no built-in function which can return second maximum value. So in this scenario, we can’t directly use expression to perform conditional formatting. However, we can get the second maximum or minimum on query level. Then insert
a column into tablix and use Lookup function to return a specific value so that we can do the conditional formatting based on this value. As we test in our local environment, to perform conditional formatting such as change the color for second maximum value
in Report Builder, we can follow the steps below:
1.Add Dataset2, apply the query below:
select max(sales)
From test
where sales < (select max(sales)
from test)
2.On report, add an Expression “=lookup(Fields!sales.Value,Fields!secondmax.Value,1,"DataSet2")”, looks like below:
3.Click [month], Properties appears on the right panel. Find Color under Font tab, click Expression, then type “=IIF(ReportItems!Textbox6.Value=1,"red","black")”.
4.Right click the third column, choose Column Visibility\Hide, click Ok.
5.Final result looks like below:
To perform conditional formatting on second minimum value, the steps are a little different from getting second maximum value. You should change the query at first step, then apply the query below:
select min(sales)
From test
where sales > (select min(sales)
from test)
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.

SSRS Reports taking long time to load

Hello,
Problem : SSRS Reports taking long time to load
My System environment : Visual Studio 2008 SP1 and SQL Server 2008 R2
Production Environment : Visual Studio 2008 SP1 and SQL Server 2008 R2
I have created a Parameterized report (6 parameters), it will fetch data from 1 table. table has 1 year and 6 months data,      I am selecting parameters for only 1 month (about 2500 records). It is taking almost 2 minutes and 30 seconds
to load the report.
This report running efficiently in my system (report load takes only 5 to 6 seconds) but in
production it is taking 2 minutes 30 seconds.
I have checked the Execution log from production so I found the timing for
Data retrieval (approx~)    Processing (approx~)           Rendering (approx~)
10 second                                  15 sec
        2 mins and 5 sec.
But Confusing point is that , if I run the same report at different time overall output time is same (approx) 2 min 30 sec but
Data retrieval (approx~)       Processing (approx~)                Rendering (approx~)
more than 1 min                            15 sec
more than 1 min
so 1 question why timings are different ?
My doubts are
1) If query(procedure to retrieve the data) is the problem then it should take more time always,
2) If Report structure is problem then rendering will also take same time (long time)
for this (2nd point) I checked on blog that Rendering depends on environment structure e.g. Network bandwidth, RAM, CPU Usage , Number of users accessing same report at a time.
So I did testing of report when no other user working on any report But failed (same result output is 2 min 30 sec)
From network team I got the result is that there is no issue or overload in CPU usage or RAM also No issue in Network bandwidth.
Production Database Server and Report server are different (but in same network).
I checked that database server the SQL Server is using almost Full RAM (23 GB out of 24 GB)
I tried to allocate the memory to less amount up to 2GB (Trial solution I got from Blogs) but this on also failed.
one hint I got from colleague that , change the allocated memory setting from static memory to dynamic to SQL Server
(I guess above point is the same) I could not find that option Static and Dynamic memory setting.
I did below steps
Connected to SQL Server Instance
Right click on Instance go to properties, Go to Memory Tab
I found three options 1) Server Memory   2) Other memory   3) Section for "Configured values and Running values"
Then I tried to reduce Maximum Server memory up to 2 GB (As mentioned above)
All trials failed, this issue I could not find the roots for this issue.
Can anyone please help (it's bit urgent).

Hi UdayKGR,
According to your description, your report takes too long to load on your production environment. Right?
In this scenario, since the report runs quickly in developing environment, we initially think it supposed to be the issue on data retrieval. However, based on the information in execution log, it takes longest time on rendering part. So we suggest you optimize
the report itself to reduce the time for rendering. Please refer to the link below:
My report takes too long to render

Custom rendering extensions not working in SSRS Report Designer (rsreportdesigner.config)

My custom rendering extension is working in Report Builder (in RSReportServer.config), but not in Report Designer (in RSReportDesigner.config): instead of adding a "TXT" export option, it's just adding a duplicate "CSV" option.
SUMMARY:
Is there a way to get these features working, with Report Designer?
DETAILS:
We are running SSRS (Reporting Services) under SQL Server 2008 R2.
Here's my rendering section:
    <Render>
      <Extension Name="XML" Type="Microsoft.ReportingServices.Rendering.DataRenderer.XmlDataReport,Microsoft.ReportingServices.DataRendering" />
      <Extension Name="CSV" Type="Microsoft.ReportingServices.Rendering.DataRenderer.CsvReport,Microsoft.ReportingServices.DataRendering" />
      
      <Extension Name="TXT" Type="Microsoft.ReportingServices.Rendering.DataRenderer.CsvReport,Microsoft.ReportingServices.DataRendering">
       <OverrideNames>
           <Name Language="en-US">TXT(ASCII,NoColHds)</Name>
       </OverrideNames>
       <Configuration>
          <DeviceInfo>
              <FileExtension>txt</FileExtension>
               <FieldDelimiter>,</FieldDelimiter>
               <Encoding>ASCII</Encoding>
               <NoHeader>true</NoHeader>
           </DeviceInfo>
       </Configuration>
      </Extension>
      <Extension Name="IMAGE" Type="Microsoft.ReportingServices.Rendering.ImageRenderer.ImageRenderer,Microsoft.ReportingServices.ImageRendering" />
      <Extension Name="PDF" Type="Microsoft.ReportingServices.Rendering.ImageRenderer.PDFRenderer,Microsoft.ReportingServices.ImageRendering" />
      <Extension Name="HTML4.0" Type="Microsoft.ReportingServices.Rendering.HtmlRenderer.Html40RenderingExtension,Microsoft.ReportingServices.HtmlRendering" Visible="false" />
      <Extension Name="MHTML" Type="Microsoft.ReportingServices.Rendering.HtmlRenderer.MHtmlRenderingExtension,Microsoft.ReportingServices.HtmlRendering" />
      <Extension Name="RPL" Type="Microsoft.ReportingServices.Rendering.RPLRendering.RPLRenderer,Microsoft.ReportingServices.RPLRendering" Visible="false" />
      <Extension Name="EXCEL" Type="Microsoft.ReportingServices.Rendering.ExcelRenderer.ExcelRenderer,Microsoft.ReportingServices.ExcelRendering" />
      <Extension Name="WORD" Type="Microsoft.ReportingServices.Rendering.WordRenderer.WordDocumentRenderer,Microsoft.ReportingServices.WordRendering" />
    </Render>
When I add the above "TXT" section to RSReportServer.config, then Report Builder (and production) both show an export option "TXT(ASCII,NoColHds)".
But when I add this "TXT" section to RSReportDesigner.config, and then (in Report Designer / BIDS) attempt to export from a "Preview" of the report, the export drop-down does not show a "CSV" option followed by a "TXT"
option, but instead shows the "CSV" option twice.
This simply limits testing of the export option, to Report Builder... or requires any reports be published from Report Designer before they can be tested with
this export option.
(FYI, why this export option: compliance in our industry requires sending data to government agencies, in text files, with fixed-length columns, and ASCII encoding. Also, we're attempting to give the production of these files to the *users* managing
communication with those agencies... so we're putting them into SSRS.
I worked around the fixed length columns (and no delimiters -- no commas), by writing a version of the report where all string columns are padded, and all columns are concatenated, to form ONE LONG COLUMN... but Reporting Services' CSV export format produces
a Unicode file (UTF-8, which the agency rejected, because it had a leading "ï»¿", or "EF BB BF" in hex), whereas the agency requires an ASCII file.)

Hi Doug_atMidway,
According to your description, you want to enable your custom render extension. Right?
In Reporting Services, if you want to deploy the custom extension, you just need to add the extension into rsreportserver.config file. The
RSReportDesigner.config file stores settings about the rendering extensions available to Report Designer. Since you still use the csv rendering extension in your assembly, we don't need to do any modification in rsreportdesigner.config file. Pleaes
refer to the links below:
Thanks for attempting to help, Simon.
As my question states, I've *already done* both the above: changed (1) rsreportserver.config and (2) rsreportdesigner.config. I added the same code, shown above, to both files. I did that so I could see the new "txt" extension
both (1) when exporting in production and Report Builder, and (2) when exporting in Report Designer's "preview".
The change in (2) is not working: I do not see the "TXT" extension in Report Designer, when I try to export from a preview. Instead, Report Designer shows the CSV extension repeated.
Thanks for the docs. I consulted them (well, I consulted the EQUIVALENT pages, for SQL Server 2008 R2), when creating my block of code above.
Do you see anything to correct, in my code?
Are the features I'm using actually working, with rsreportdesigner.config?
Thanks again,

Pass parameters to a report instance, or filter an instance of a report

Hi,
I am using Web Elements as linked reports with no problems for on demand reports but I need to run an instance of a report and then use a web elements/opendocument link to a subset of that data.
Basically I have a report on a college that drills down to campus and then course level. If I have an on demand subreport (via web elements link) to a course, linking course code then it brings up the 20 or so students on that report on the fly - taking < 30 seconds.
The problem is that I need this at Campus level as well. If I do it on the fly by linking on Campus instead of course, it times-out due to the large numbers of student records in the detail level.
If I change the link from the main report to point to the instance of the report I get all records, not just the campus I need (I get all campuses).
I then put in parameters to just select the required campus within the Instance of the report that is run for all campuses. The Instance is created with Parameters set to wildcard values, so that the parameters are available to pass values. I have also tried running the subreport without parameters, but it just displays all records and ignores parameters passed in (unsurprisingly).
I have had other reports working with linked parameters before, but only to the .rpt report - not to an instance.
The report works, but again all reports are displayed because when I checked the parameters they are shown as wildcards, as used when creating the instance, NOT the parameters I am trying to pass to the instance.
If I change the link to go to the Param Instance instead of the last instance (sInstance=Param), then I get an error because the report instance was created with wildcard parameters but the link has campus set, so there is no matching instance as far as Crystal is concerned.
An approximation of the link used is below:
http://...opendocument.aspx?sType=rpt&NAII=N&iDocID=1234&sInstance=Last&lsSAcadPeriod=07/08&lsSparamCampus=E
I cannot simply run an instance of the report for each Campus as there is are additional layers I have left out of this example for clarity (School, CampusType etc).
I need a solution that either allows parameters to work with instances of reports, or filter records in instances of reports.
I hope I have explained this clearly enough - please let me know if not, or if you have any other questions.
Many thanks in advance for any and all help.
Geoff Langdon.

hello arjhay,
webelements 2.3 will not work seemlessly, unfortunately, with xir3.
in xir3 the dhtml viewer has changes in it that are more web 2.0.
things that will not work and are deprecated for webelements & xir3 are the functions in WEViewer. this is due to the toolbar in the new viewer being a widget as opposed to a set of divs. however, opendocument for xir3 will allow one to switch off the toolbar using an opendocument paramter and will also allow one to switch off the new style tab bar.
the new dhtml viewer also does not encase report fields & functions etc. within a form tag. many webelements controls require a form so the new design for xir3 will be to put a new WEFormStart at the top of each report using webelements. what this does is basically start a form in the viewer and allow the controls to function properly.
so in summary there are 2 changes for xir3:
a) each report using webelements must have a WEFormStart function added to the beginning of the report
b) references to WEViewer must be removed from reports that are used in xir3
there will be a new 2.4 function suite out in several weeks and this will contain the new WEFormStart as well as other syntax changes to allow reports to work in xir3.

NeoDynamic Barcode Proffessional Upload Error in SSRS Report Server 2012

Hi cbazrm,
According to your description, you add an external assembly to display barcode in your report. It works properly in developing environment. But it throw the above error after deploying onto report server. Right?
Based on the error message, the report server side doesn't have the assembly added, so it can't use the assembly to render the barcode.
In this scenario, we should copy the AgeAssembly.dll to the “C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSRS10_50.MSSQLSERVER\Reporting Services\ReportServer\bin” folder then drag and drop the assembly to the C:\Windows\assembly too.

SSRS report viewer web part error only in IE not in Chrome & Safari

SSRS is setup in SP integrated mode.
I am getting this error when I click a report parameter drop down for the second time to display the list of avaliable values:
Sys.WebForms.PageRequestManagerParserErrorException: The message received from the server could not be parsed. Common causes for this error are when the response is modified by calls to Response.Write(), response
filters, HttpModules, or server trace is enabled. Details: Error parsing near '< !DOCTYPE html PUB'.
I researched this issue and have added the following to my SP site's web.config:
<appSettings>
<add key="aspnet: MaxHttpCollectionKeys" value="5000" />
</appSettings>
Oddly enough, I only get this error in IE not in Chrome it works fine... Any ideas on how to correct?
fyi- Drop down has <25 items I would say.

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you had some issues about the SSRS.
As you had known, this issue is caused that Microsoft security update MS11-100 limits the maximum number of form keys, files, and JSON members to 1000 in an HTTP request.
Because of this change, ASP.NET applications reject requests that have more than 1000 of these elements.
HTTP clients that make these kinds of requests will be denied, and an error message will appear in the web browser.
SSRS report filtering column were sending as HTTPCollectionKeys and that was reaching the maximum limit.
The solution is adding the MaxHttpCollectionKeys as you had did, you can try add a larger number to check whether it works, such as 9999 as below.
<appSettings>

<add key="aspnet:MaxHttpCollectionKeys" value="9999" />
</appSettings>
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/paulking/archive/2012/01/16/using-an-http-module-to-assist-in-adjusting-the-value-of-aspnet-maxhttpcollectionkeys-imposed-by-ms11-100.aspx
As this issue is related to the SSRS, you can post the issue to the SSRS forum.
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/sqlserver/en-US/home?forum=sqlreportingservices
More experts will assist you, then you will get more information relation to SSRS.
Thank you for your understanding and support.

Second Instance for OWA

Greetings!
Here, users use forms because lots of them have access to more than one mailbox and that mailboxes are not set full access and we don´t have it mapped to do configure the full access yet.
So, we would like to setup a second instance of OWA, bind it a new URL and set this second instance to integrated authentication, taking advantage of SSO.
Is it possible? To create a second site with OWA or a new OWA on the same site in the same server? If yes, some step by step? or article?
Thanks in advance.

ARD Task Server gathering reports even when reporting is disabled

We have noticed lately that at 2am each morning there is a considerable amount of network usage initiated by my task server presumably gathering reports from machines at different sites.
I had recently deleted all my computers in ARD, disabled reporting, and added them back in while making sure not to apply reporting features.
I have dug around in cron, LaunchDaemons, and plist files on the clients and on my task server. On my task server I see a plist that shows reporting is disabled on all the machines. At the client level I do not see anything regarding reporting.
Would it be a good idea to re-send an ard configuration package to all of the clients?
I opened a ticket with Apple, but they won't do anything without having purchased software support.

Hmmm... I seem to have found the plist file that is doing it. I was looking at /Library/Application\ Support/Apple/Remote\ Desktop/ before... looks like /Library/Preferences/com.apple.ARDAgent.plist is the culprit.
This plist is a binary, so I had to use plutil to convert to xml in order to make it human readable. I wonder if I can just hack this file up a bit and re-deploy it to each machine. Or I wonder if it would re-build if I simply remove it from each client. I will need to test to find out, seeing as though the task servers are listed in it, probably not a good idea to remove it all the way.

SSRS Report running out of MS CRM

I have a large multi-page SSRS report that takes about 30 minutes to run. The report is run from CRM.
The problem is that because of the time it takes to run the report users have a tendency to go away and do other things, and when they come back to it later and go to the second page it has expired. It's fine if they go through the pages straight after the
report is complete.
Are there any settings that could control and increase how long the pages are available before they expire? Is this something to do with the IIS app pool timeouts?
SQL SSRS 2008, CRM 4.0, Server 2008. Separate Reporting and CRM SQL server.

To me it sounds like a session time-out issue. Due to how long your report is taking to run your report isn't being kept alive long enough in cache (the temporary DB). Here is a great article that explains it...
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/jgalla/archive/2006/10/11/session-timeout-during-execution.aspx
If you have to adjust the session timeout and can't get the report to run any faster by tuning your query, with 2008 you might be able to adjust the session timeout more easily by connecting to the Reporting Services instance in SSMS, Right-clicking the
website URL and selecting ‘Properties’, then in the “Server Properties” window select ‘Advanced’ from the list on the left and adjust the setting there.

Ssrs report web service to save report as pdf throws error Soap exception unhandeled by user code

I am creating a C# web application to save an SSRS report as a pdf file on my local machine.

Hello Devster,
Thank you to post your question on TechNet forum.
After reviewing the whole post, I have a question to you. You can access the report via the link, http://myServer/Reports_DEVPROJECT/Pages/Report.aspx?ItemPath=%2fData+Mgmt%2fSample+Letter.
From the URL, I can see that the report is located at: /Data Mgmt/Sample Letter, instead of /DataMgmt/Sample Letter. In addition, I found that the target report is "/DataMgmt/Sample HAP Letter" instead of "/DataMgmt/Sample Letter" as the error described. I
am not sure whether you post out the correct code segment.
Please check the above things on your side, and hope it is helpful to you.
Regards,
Edward
