Connection failed on report builder 2.0

Hi,
i use report builder 2.0 connect to the server by using http://servername/reportserver, it came out an error
Unable connect to the server that is specified in the URL, make sure http://servername/reportserver, make sure server is running, URL is correct and you have the permission.
my server is running and URL is correct then how i check the permission?
Thanks
Yue

Hi,
1. Please make sure you can browse this URL http://servername/reportserver in MS internet explorer.
2. Please make sure the URL is of SSRS 2008 report server, Report builder 2.0 can not work with SSRS 2005.
3.If the operating system is Vista or window 2008, please use "Run as administrator" to open your Report Builder 2.0, or turn off the UAC.
By the way, open the MSReportBuilder.exe.config file (by default, it is stored at C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\Report Builder 2.0) to configure the report server url.
Hope this help,
thanks,
Jerry

Oracle database 10g connectivity problem with Report Builder

Hi,
I need to amend a .rdf report and am using the dev10g. I can't connect the test database from report builder.
It is getting the error like :
"ORA-12154 : TNS: could not resolve service name".
I can connect the database from sql*plus, Toad etc. Also It's giving me the response when I run the TNSPING command with the database name.
Could someone advise me that how can I resolve this problem?
Thanks,

set the TNS_ADMIN variable point to the correct tnsnames.ora file
or try the note mentioned in http://www.alexyscorp.com/products.htm
Lastly try opening a command line/dos prompt, set the TNS_ADMIN variablea and start the reports builder from commandline

Connectivity problem with Report Build 6.0

Symptom :
When I'm starting a report with Forms the Report backgroud dialog box freeze and nothing is printed.
Environment :
Server : Oracle database (v 8.0.3.0.6) on Novell Netware 5.
Client : Developer 2000 (Report Builder v 6.0.5.2.8.0) on Windows98.
Actions :
- I've tried to recompil a report file but when I'm connect to Report Builder, it freeze too (without message).
- I've attempted to recompil a Forms with Forms Builder. No Problem : I can connect to database (how it's possible ?).
- I've checked my connectivity with PING and TNSPING : Ok, the network connection seem correct.
- In log file SQLNET.LOG There's 3 error messanges. In order :
1. ORA-12203 -> "TNS : Unable to connect to destination". But I can connect to database with Forms.
2. ORA-12560 -> "TNS : Protocol adapter error".
3. ORA-00102 -> "Network protocol cannot be used by the dispatchers".
It's very strange.
Thank you for your precious help.

SQL 2012 Report Builder + UAG

Quick description of setup: I have 4 total SharePoint servers, 2WFE's, 2APP's, and a SQL Cluster. I am using SQL 2012, + I have installed the reporting services add-in for SQL 2012 and have gone through the entire setup. Everything works,
KCD, stored credentials, I am able to create reports within report builder, launch report builder and so on... When I publish the site using UAG, report builder fails to connect to the report server, in this case either of the WFE's in the farm. I thought
initially it was "body parsing" since looking at the diagnostic logs I noticed that the request coming in looked as if the /_vti_bin/ReportServer/ portion was missing and all I saw was "sitename.something.local:443/ReportService2010.asmx". I added some
entries to skip body parsing and that didnt seem to work at all.
Running FIDDLER - I noticed that when I launch report builder, there is a 302 redirect to the main trunk, or the trunk to which the site is published on. I see a bunch of 302's, and it just stops.. never connects. When I try to connect from within
report builder, I get an error saying "cannot connect to https://sitename.fqdn" make sure the url is correct and or you have permissions.
It seems to me that report builder does not work through UAG. Can anyone suggest a fix?

Hello,
I have a same issue, after search, they are saying to make delegation if you are using Kerberos but it didn't work either, so is there any configuration needed.

SSRS Execution Account cannot be used with Report Builder

Running SQL Server 2012 SP2, I have specified an Execution Account in Reporting Services Configuration Manager as described here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms156302(v=sql.110).aspx
The article states: "You can specify Integrated Security=SSPI if the database server supports Windows integrated security and the account used for unattended report processing has permission to read the database." I have created a data source using
the Report Manager Web interface with connection string: "Data Source=<server>;Initial Catalog=<database>;Integrated Security=SSPI" and "Connect using: Credentials are not required" option.
The Execution Account is a domain user account with db_owner membership on the database in question. When I "Test Connection" in Report Manager, the connection is created successfully.
However, when I attempt to create a new dataset using this data source in Report Builder, I am unable to connect to the data source: "You have specified integrated security or credentials in the connection string for the data source, but the data source
is configured to use a different credential type. To use the values in the connection string, you must configure the unattended report processing account for the report server."
If I change the "connect using" option for the data source to "Windows integrated security" I can successfully create a new dataset and report in Report Builder. After saving the report, I reconfigure the data source for "Credentials
are not required" and I am able to successfully run the report using the Execution Account.
Is this a known limitation? The Report Builder cannot be used with an unattended Execution Account configured?

Hi desmondgc,
According to your description, you have set the execution account for connecting data source. You can connect data source successfully, but can't create dataset with the unattended account. Right?
As we tested in our local environment, we encountered the same issue. Even testing connection successfully in Report Builder, it still says unable connect to data source when creating dataset.
For this issue, I would recommend to submit it to the Microsoft Connect at this link
https://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/Feedback.
This connect site will serve as a connecting point between you and Microsoft, and ultimately the large community for you and Microsoft to interact with. Your feedback enables Microsoft to offer the best software and deliver superior services, meanwhile you

Unable to connect Forms and Report with Oracle 9i database

Kindly advise.Yes, you definately needed to mention that. That suggests you also have 3 $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin directories, each with its own tnsnames.ora file. So you need to make sure you are hitting the correct one. I'd pick one to be the controlling one and set the TNS_ADMIN enviornment variable to point to it.

Run a report in report builder connect with dynamic nav developpement

Report Builder Can't Connect after IP Change

I can write the queries that I need to but continually run into issues with SRS and its Report Builder
Someone moved the report server onto another LAN and it has a new IP. All the reports can still connect to the data source and so work just fine.
When I launch Report Builder 2 from the Report Server/Report itself, it pops up that "connection failed" and follows up with "Unable to connect to the server that is specified in the URL"
Basically I need to configure it to point to itself I guess but that seems to not be happening. The changes were already in the report manager when I went to check them. I have no idea how long it's been this way.
I've attached a pic to show the successful connection to report server, but bad from report builder. Also the configuration of the report server.
I found posts related to proxy but that can't possibly help b/c the thing is looking for an IP that doesn't exist! It's own has changed.

Hi Kirkee,
According to your description, after someone moved the report server to another LAN and a new IP, all the reports can still connect to the data source and work fine. When you launch Report Builder 2 from report manager or report, you got the error message.
The error message "Connection failed. Unable to connect to the server specified URL <Report Server URL>" means we are not able to connect to the Report Server. We can follow these steps to troubleshoot the issue:
Open the Web Services URL (known as Report Server URL) in the Internet Explorer (IE). Make sure it is able to open it.
Try to use IP to access the Report Server from the Report Builder.
Run the Report Builder under the domain account (Press key SHIFT and then right click the Report Builder, click 'Run as different user').
Check the Reporting Services error logs (by default, it can be found from C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\<SQL Server Instance>\Reporting Services\LogFiles).
If you have any more questions, please feel free to ask.
Thanks,

Connecting to db2 from report builder via odbc

Hi!
Some manuals said, it is possible to connect to DB2 from Oracle SQL*Plus (we have version 8.0.6.0.0)
and from Oracle Report Builder.(6.0.8.11.3)
User must install OCA (Oracle Open Client Adapter for ODBC (6.0.5.29.0)) and make ODBC entry.
I did it.
run with: plus80 db2user/db2pass@odbc:db2test
SQL*Plus made the connection, but with errors:

The error refers PUPBLD.SQL, but I think it is Oracle specific, don't help.
Worse, that it can't connect from Report Builder, it just throws error.
If I set OCA_DEBUG=TRUE in registry, I have bonus messages:
oca-30053 unsupported network call (oracle code: 3115)
oca-30002 ubofssw function not supported (1010)
I tried to connect to MsAcces too, but I got same errors.
Have you any idea, how can I solve this?

Report builder connect to datasource outside of the network

Hi,
Locally, we installed report server on Machine (A) and the sql Server on Machine (B).
My machine is also in the same network and via Report builder i can connect to report server and create shared dataset.
but outside of network, when i use report builder i can connect to report server but i cannot create shared dataset : there is window appears titled "Enter data source credentials" demanding to enter login/password.
I entered the same login/password defined in datasource created in report server but i obtained this message:
"A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections.
(provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)"
how i can resolve it ?

Disabling the windows firewall doesn't mean that there isn't a network firewall. Try using a port scanning utility from outside your network to see if the port is being filtered (behind a firewall), listening, or being blocked.
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=24009
You'll need to scan the port have configured for your report server URL, found through reporting server configuration manager in the advanced settings. Typically this is going to be port 80 or 443, but it could have been adjusted to something else, like
8080.

ColdFusion Report Builder and RDS connection

I'm trying to build report in CF report builder 8. Under the RDS server connection I have
Description: TEST

Port: 8001
I don't have the RDS PWD.
When I hit Test connections it gives me the following message:
The RDS server was successfully contacted, but your security credentials were invalid...
If I hit OK and go to Query builder I don't see and DB. Is there a way around this....
Any help is appreciated...

I have a web page that contains a ReportViewer control. I am trying to display a report, which is an .rdl file located on the SSRS server, in this ReportViewer control. I have set the ReportPath and ReportServerUrl correctly. I am
getting an error message.
Am I suppose to use an .rdlc file rather than a .rdl file? Does the web server configuration need to use a certain account?
I am getting the following error message:

The request failed with HTTP status 404: Not Found.

Hi bucaroov,
The error "The request failed with HTTP status 404: Not Found." means the ReportServerURL configured in the ReportViewer control is invalid.
Please follow these steps to solve the issue:
Logon the Report Server machine.
Open the Reporting Services Configuration Manager.
Copy the Report Server URL from 'Web Services URL'.
Logon the application server(in this case, it is the server that host the web page), check if we can use the URL we got from step 3 to access the Report Server. If so, please replace the ReportServerURL in the ReportViewer control with this URL. If it is
not available, could you please post the error message.
Additionaly, we don't need to provide the extension for a server report. The ReportPath should be like: /<reports folder>/<report name>
For more information, please see:

Can not connect Oracle 10g express edition from report builder.

I have newly installed report builder . Different home was selected for Report builder and oracle. Oracle database server is also in the same machine. But i am not able to connect my oracle 10g express edition database. It throws error ORA-12154 : TNS could not resolve service name.( same error displayed while trying to connect from SQL Plus).But from toad i am able to access the database. May be because here I am able to select the proper home.
Here i am adding my tns entry
XE =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 1ECA66A679AB494)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = XE)
can any one suggest what the actual problem is?
Thanks ..........

Hello,
Oracle 10g XE is rather specific and, I'm not sure that you can upgrade it to 10.2.0.4 .
However, Oracle published an Upgrade Guide for Oracle Express Edition but, it's limited to *10.2.0.3*:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B25329_01/doc/server.102/b32391/toc.htm
But be careful:
Once you have upgraded to Oracle Database 10g, you cannot downgrade back to Oracle Database Express Edition.Hope this help.
Best regards,

I get similar message when I try connecting Forms Builder aswell.
Could someone please help/guide me on what else to check, so that
I could connect my Reports Builder to the database.
Thanks

U Have to prepare the tnsname.ora file (ora_home\net80\admin\tnsname.ora)with the correct Ip-Adress an DB-Alias.
U can open this file with the standard texteditor or u can configure the tnsname.ora by using "Net8 Config".
This is a oracle program that will installed by NET 8 Client software.
