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,
Wendy Fu

Can't connect after password change

roommate claims we were hacked and he changed the password to a WEP but now i can't connect. it basically comes down to a "connection timeout" every time i try. i've changed and updated all the proper areas in network preferences and keychain access but nothing works. and even though the password is in keychain access and it asks me if it can allow its use, it will then still ask me for the password in window.
any ideas? i realize this is vague but not sure where to go from here. oh, and also the network wifi comes and goes even though i'm sitting next to the router. i tried another router and it's all the same complete with vanishing wifi so i'm assuming it's something with my computer. but then i also have a G4 desktop and it won't connect either.
i was using open DNS but have deleted that info in the preferences as in the past, that sometimes causes problems when connecting to new networks for the first time.
so could it still be a DNS issue or possible keychain access or something i'm not even thinking of?
(and dumb question, but does it matter in a WEP password if the letters are caps or not? tried it both ways but anything i can eliminate as a cause at this point would be great.)
thanks very much

When someone maliciously accessed your network, he may have changed other AirPort settings too, so I would verify everything is as it should be. Your roommate could also have changed something beyond implementing WEP encryption, either intentionally or not.
You might also see if you can isolate the cause to your computers by creating a new network "location" for them.
I don't believe OpenDNS is the problem. If your AirPort network becomes unavailable at random intervals, that problem must be solved before anything else will work.
... does it matter in a WEP password if the letters are caps or not?
Yes. WEP passwords are case-sensitive.

Clients can't connect after IP change

Changed the IP address from 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.8.1.
I have 100's of clients (school) and now none of the clients can connect.
Switching back to the old IP works fine.
What needs to be updated so the clients can connect to the new IP?
Any help greatly appreciated!
Mac Mini OS X Lion Server

The mac server is handling DNS. Where would I make the change?
The IP change due to poor planning on behalf of the school. They have in essence run out of IP addresses on the original address scheme so I had to create new addresses.

Safari can't connect after latest Lion update

Just updated my software and now safari can't connect to websites. It connects for a bit then after awhile it will no longer connect. Firefox and Chrome are connecting fine so this is a safari only issue with the latest update.
Safari Version 5.1.5 (7534.55.3)
Quiting safari and restarting works for a little while then eventually 'can't connect to server' eventually appears. I'm going back to firefox until this is resolved.

This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins and log in as Guest. For instructions, launch the System Preferences application, select Help from the menu bar, and enter “Set up a guest account” (without the quotes) in the search box.
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem(s)?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault in Mac OS X 10.7 or later, then you can’t enable the Guest account. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Be sure your Mac is shut down.
Press the power button.
Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.
Hi I have the same sort of problems I carried out the two tests and the problem appears to only be in my profile not in guest profile. Is there a cure?

Report Builder: can i define a function in the rdf file ?

Hi All,
About the report builder, can i define a function in the rdf file ? and then i want invoke it in the report SQL, just like :
function Get_Ap_Prepay_Balance(p_Invoice_Id IN NUMBER, p_End_Date IN DATE) RETURN NUMBER IS
l_Amount number;
begin
RETURN l_Amount;
end;
thanks.

You can create functions in reports, but slightly different from doing it in PL/SQL
function Get_Ap_Prepay_Balance return number is
l_Amount number;
begin
assuming that you have invoice_id in your select statement and p_End_Date is a report parameter, you can refer to them in your function as :p_End_Date and :invoice_id
for example select prepay_amount_remaining into l_Amount from ap_invoice_distributions where invoice_id = :invoice_id and accounting_date = :p_End_Date
return(l_Amount);
hope this helps

Windows Vista won't connect after security change

I have an AirPort Extreme base station, to which we connect using an iMac, PowerBook G4 and a Windows Vista laptop. I used to have it set to WEP, but changed it to WPA for the increased security. After the change, my PowerBook and iMac are connecting just fine, but my wife's Vista machine has been nothing but headaches. It will sometimes connect, after a bit of fighting with it, but not reliably or quickly. At the moment, it says that it is connected with local and internet access, but I can't actually access anything on the internet, and diagnosing the problem in Vista reports that a wireless network cannot be found (despite the fact that it simultaneously reports that it is connected to one).
I know squat about Windows -- I'm a Mac guy. Anybody know how to help me fix this?
Thanks in advance!

No answers, but the problem seems to have disappeared. Man, I'm starting to realize how fortunate I am to have been using Macs for the last 23 years. I think Vista is going to be a very good thing for Apple! There's nothing like actually using Vista to make one want to flee screaming and never look back...

Report Builder: Can I use a prompt filter in multiple ways?

Hi,
I'm new to Report Builder 3, which we use at my office for a number of custom made reports to access our project management server. On one of these we basically want to allow the user to pick a date, and then see all historic data before that date,
and all forecast data after that date.
Thus far the only way we can achieve this is by adding a prompt filter on a date at the field filter level; but as one of these is a
before X and another is on or after X this creates two input filter prompts, and in some cases we end up needing the user to put the same date in 4 separate input fields!
Does anyone know a way around this - I basically want to allow them to input a single variable date, and then be allowed to filter that in different ways.
Thanks,
James

"adding a prompt filter on a date at the field filter level"
Not sure what you mean by that. All you should need to do is create the parameter in the report as a Date/time type parameter; I will call it @FocusDate. If you have 2 datasets, HistoricalData and ForecastData, you would set the parameter in the filter criteria.
If both are SQL queries then:
HistoricalData:
SELECT [field list] FROM history WHERE history.Date < @FocusDate
ForecastData:
SELECT [field list] FROM forecast WHERE forecast.Date > @FocusDate
I am guessing this is not your scenario so I will need more information. Are you using the parameter to filter the data in a tablix (table, list, matrix) instead of the dataset query? Are you trying to display both historical and forecast data in the same
tablix? If so is the data in single dataset?

Yes. We tried to reboot iphone(s), tried also with ipads 6.1. We tried to reset network settings.
We tried to add wifi profile to clean new iphone using iphone configuration utility.
Wireless supplier can't help - they told it is an ios issue and I think this is true because all
ipads/iphones works just fine on ios5 or 6.0.1 but can't connect on 6.1

Report builder doesn't connect

Hi All,
I ran into a problem where I can not connect the report builder and forms runtime to database.
I am using oracle 10g 10.1.0.2.0 and forms and reports 6.0. and I am trying to connect through NT 4.0.
I am able to connect to database through forms builder and able to run the forms froms and calling reports from within the forms. But whenever I try to connect through forms runtime or report builder I received ORA-12203 error.
Actually I just shifted the database from on machine to another high specs one, and since then I got this trouble...earlier it was ok...
I tried to recreate the tnsnames.ora file through net manager ver. 9.0 but it still the same.
Any help on this please. Best Regards.

Please check for another existence of the tnsnames.ora file.
As you are using Forms 10 and Reports 6 you may different Oracle Homes and each will have a separate tnsnames file unless you defined a central one.

Can;t connect after comcast install

my airport worked previously with a cablevision modem hookup.
now, with comcast, i can only connect directly via ethernet...my AX shows a green light, and network diagnostics show the AX is working but the ISP is not, yet when i connect direct to the comcast modem it works fine....any ideas?
terayon TJ 715 is the modem connected to the cable.
Thanks!

It is important to do a complete power recycle of your network components when changing equipment. Try the following, in order, checking for Internet access after each step, until resolved:
1. If the modem has a reset switch, use it to reset the modem. Wait at least 5-10 minutes for the modem to initialize.
2. Remove power from the modem. If it has a backup battery, remove this as well. Wait 5-10 minutes. Replace the battery, and add power back to the modem.
3. Perform a complete power recycle of your network components as follows:
Modem/Router Power Recycling - Quick
o Power-off the modem, AirPort Express Base Station (AX), & computer(s); Wait at least 5 minutes.
o Power-on the modem; Wait at least 5 minutes.
o Power-on the AX; Wait at least 5 minutes.
o Power-on the computer(s)
If this fails to get the modem to "recognize" the Internet router, then try the "Full" version.
Modem/Router Power ReCycling - Full
o Power-off the modem, AX, & computer(s). (Wait at least 30 minutes. If possible, leave the modem off overnight.)
o Power-on the modem; Wait at least 15 minutes.
o Power-on the AX; Wait at least 5 minutes.
o Power-on the computer(s)
4. Contact your ISP to have them perform a "modem reset."

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
HostName: ColdFusionServerHost
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...

Exactly the same problem here

None of the obvious steps works.

Report Builder can't setup RDS

When trying to setup RDS in the report builder for CF8 I get
an http 1.1 404 Object not found error.
Windows authentication is off and I can use RDS with
Dreamweaver.
Any thoughts?

Try and temporarily turn off Windows Integrated
Authentication.
If it works, double-check to be sure you turned it off for
the CFIDE directory permanently.

Some clients can't connect after 10.6.6 update - the see an error -43

Hi There,
I'm a designer so am not all that technical but have managed to setup and maintain OS X servers since 10.5.
I've just updated the server to 10.6.6 and now some of our clients can't connect - they get the following error:
"There was an error connecting to the server. Check the server name or IP address and try again.
If you are unable to resolve the problem contact your system administrator."
If I click OK to the error above on the client, I see another error which reads:
"The operation cannot be completed because one or more required items cannot be found.
(Error code -43)"
I've restarted the server and the clients but no luck.
The server is running the following services:
- AFP
- DNS
- Firewall
- NFS (although I don't remember setting this up - is this started with AFP?)
- Open Directory
I can ping the server and login via ARD so not sure why we see the first IP address error as mentioned above.
Any help or suggestions would be most welcome.
Regards
Ben

One question, is this when you hit "Connect to Server" or is this after you've established a connection and try to open/edit/save files?
Here is some general advice:
1) I assume your whole network is behind a router and that we are talking a small office environment (5-10 people) and not some large enterprise. If so the Firewall service can probably be disabled. As a matter of fact if your issue is that clients can't connect at all the firewall may actually be causing your problem.
2) NFS can almost certainly be disabled. Its generally only used for two reasons 1) The netboot service needs it. 2) You support unix/bsd clients. I can see from your list of services that netboot isn't something you're doing and I doubt that as a designer you would have much use for unix/bsd systems.

Report Builder - Unable to connect to data source

When I attempt to connect to the data source in Report Builder 3.0 with CM 2012, I receive the following error message: A connection was successfully established with the server, but then an error occurred during the pre-login handshake. (provider: SSL Provider,
error: 0 - The certificate chain was issued by an authority that is not trusted.)
Any suggestions on how to help?

You also need it on the client machine running report builder. Here's the instructions I sent my DBA:
Start>run>mmc>file>add/remove snapins>certificate>Computer Account>Local Computer>Certificates>Personal>Certificates>Issued to: Name of server
Look at each cert. On the 3<sup style="color:#1f497d;">rd</sup> tab (Certification Path) it should say “ConfigMgr SQL Server Identification
Certificate”. Export that cert.
Then on the machine running report builder, import the certificate to the local computer trusted root.
Perfect ... Finally following this instruction solve reporting connection error and reporting services is now running perfectly.

My compy can't connect after putting in router

hello all, i have a compaq presario, and a WRT54GS router, the wireless works great, but about 2 weeks after hooking the presario to it, it lost internet, didn't even have a IP address, so we did a system recovery, fixed it, but then, the same thing just happened. wireless is good, but the wired is messed up, i have talked to compaq, they said talk to Linksys about it. so here i am. please help.Message Edited by panhead09 on 03-25-200708:23 PM

well..if the wireless connection is working good..i guess there is some problem with the NIC card of your computer...or the ethernet port on the router...only to isolate the problem , connect the computer directly to the modem and check whether the computer gets a proper ip address and can it connect to the internet..
