Data Source Type not showing in drop down

I am trying to utilize an XML data source that I defined in the physical layer for init block for repository variable. Anyways when I go to select the data source, XML does not show up as an available data source within the drop down, thus I can not select the xml data sources connection pool. Can anyone let me know what I am missing here. I searched config files and other things within the rpd to no avail. I know I am missing something simple, and if anyone knows please let me know.
Thanks
Frank

Initialization blocks can only connect to database data sources as there must be written in SQL. The only exception for this are the Session Init Blocks which can also connect to an LDAP server or a Customer Authenticator. You will need to load your XML file in a database to be able to read it.

TS3276 the images (attachments) are automatically resized (smaller) when I send them to a customer. My email screen does not show a drop down menu box where you can leave as actual size. Is there a setting elsewhere that can be set.

Any suggestions on problem I have. I receive images, say a file that is 3 mgs through email on Safari mail and when I try to resend it or forward it or any other larger file, when it sends the file is reduced by about 1/3. My screen does not show and drop down menu with a feature to keep actual size or reduce that is suggested when I looked up solutions to the problem. I can't find a setting anywhere in mail that I can change to make sure my files are kept at actual size. I figure a setting got changed -don't know how - but it happened about a month ago. Caused problems as I work in graphics can't send files to clients as they come out too small. Any suggestions on how to fix.
Thanks

What email program are you using? And what do you mean by "Safari mail"?

LMS 4.2.3 variable name not show in drop-down list

I am trying to use performance threshold to trigger a script whild device CPU or Memory high.
There is a default threshold template called "CPU Utilization" and "Memory Utilization".
After I choose either one, there should be one or two variable name in drop down list.

I can see variable name under some template like "Device Availability" or "Port Availability"
And this is not browser problem because I try both IE and Firefox.
Any one how to solve this?

Power view couldn't load the model or data source because the data source type is not supported

Hi,
I have SQL 2012 standard edition in my local. I have developed SSAS & deployed in local. I have been asked to develop power view report in excel 2013 using this SSAS. But when I tried to do in Excel 2013 professional Plus, I am getting below error:
Power view couldn't load the model or data source because the data source type is not supported.
Does power view is supported in standard edition of SQL or it requires Business/Enterprise edition of SQL server?
Thanks in advance

What type of SSAS install are you using?
PowerView in Excel 2013 currently only supports Tabular data sources.
Only PowerView in Sharepoint 2013 supports both Tabular and Multi-Dim data sources. (provided you have the required Sharepoint and SQL updates installed)

Domain Names Not Appearing In Drop Down of Data Cleansing Task

For some reason, in several of my DQS data cleansing tasks, the domain names of the knowledge base I choose are not appearing. This is turn leads to an error message stating that "No domain field has been mapped to the input column...".
The task can see the DQS server and it can see the various knowledge bases on that server, but the domains are not appearing.
Has anyone else run into this issue?
Thanks!!
A. M. Robinson

I have just found the same issue.
For me, I believe it is because the domains are only used in matching rules, which the SSIS task does not support. Therefore they are not in the drop down as the SSIS DQS task cannot use them. Only map domains for data correction and you should be ok.

External Data source not appearing in Data source type

Hello,
I use SQL Server 2012 BI Edition and use Data tools to create reports. I have a 3rd party Data source. While creating a new shared data source, I cannot get it to appear under the Data Source Type. Only the current built in types are available. For test
purposes, I tried editing the RSReportServer.config and added a duplicate entry and it was shown in the dropdown. What should I do?
When this 3rd party data source is installed, under Tools --> Connect to Database, I am able to get that datatype and connect to my data source. I tried uninstalling and this option goes away.
Regards
Vivek.

Hi Vivek,
Based on my research, the error always occurs when you load custom extensions in SQL Server 2012 Data Tools or use Report Builder 2.0 to run an SSRS 2008 or SSRS 2008 R2 report that uses a custom data processing extension in server mode. According to your
description, it seems that you are not in those two scenarios. So I think this issue can be caused by that the Custom Data Process Extension is not deployed correctly in SQL Server Reporting Services.
The following document about Implementing a Data Processing Extension in Reporting Services is for your reference:
http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/22946/Implementing-a-Data-Processing-Extension
Besides, please note that Report Builder is currently not extensible, and can't load custom data extensions or custom query designers. We can refer to the method posted by Robert to work around this issue:
https://go4answers.webhost4life.com/Example/custom-data-sources-report-builder-30-15682.aspx
Hope this helps.

How can I remove apps from my itunes library in version 11.0.0.163? The checkbox is no longer there in the new version and I do not see a drop down menu.

In the new iTunes version 11.0.0.163 I tried to delete a free app but it still shows after I deleted it from all my Apple devices. The checkbox in the previous version of iTunes does not seem to be present in the new version and I do not see a drop down menu. And there are no Help menu choices either. I guess, I will otherwise wait for the new update to iTunes as of 12.10.2012.

With iTunes 11 on PCs the drop-down menus are hidden by default - control-B should get the menus to show
This screenshot is from a Mac, but it should be similar on a PC :

SQL Server Reporting Services: ERROR [IM002] [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified

Hey everyone, So I am trying to get a report onto the server, and in BIDS I kept getting a login screen repeating over and over when I tried to deploy my report, so I tried to upload the file at http://<servername>/Reports This worked, but then trying
to run this report from http://<servername>/Reports did not work either because "An error has occurred during report processing. (rsProcessingAborted) Cannot create a connection to data source 'FTYDataSource'. (rsErrorOpeningConnection) For more information
about this error navigate to the report server on the local server machine, or enable remote errors" Anyways I tried to add a New Data Source (which I would use in the report) at http://<servername>/Reports, type ODBC, with the connection string Dsn=blah_blahblah.
I try to test the connection here and get the error ERROR [IM002] [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified This is really getting old fast, everything I try, a new error comes up. Granted I am new at this,
but this still should not be this troublesome. Does anyone have any ideas on what could FINALLY allow me to just put a report out onto the server?!? THANK YOU in advance for ANY help.

Hi,
Please try setting the credentials of the datasource.
1. Double click and open the datasource in your project.
2. Click on the credentials tab, and click on option button 'Use this username and password'
3. Enter the username and password to connect to the datasource
4. Deploy or upload the datasource to the report server and try accessing the reports.
Hope this helps.
