Report using excel sheet as data source not working when deployed to production.

I have a set of SSRS reports that use an excel sheet as a datasource.
Now when I preview the reports or run them in the Visual Studio IDE on my local machine i.e
the development machine, the reports run fine & display all correct results.
However, when we deploy the reports to the Production machine which is on a separate server,
the following error message is displayed :
"The current action cannot be completed. The user data source credentials do not meet the requirements to run this report. Either the user data source credentials are not stored in the report server database, or the user data source is configured not to
require credentials but the unattended execution account is not specified. (rsInvalidDataSourceCredentialSetting)"
I've copy pasted the connection string used for connecting to the excel file as reference :
Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source=C:\MyFolder\CurrentFile.xlsx;Extended Properties="Excel 12.0;HDR=Yes;";
The excel file has also been uploaded to the machine housing the reporting server (i.e to C:\MyFolder location)

Hi Aaakar,
From the error message, please try to change the setting of Credential type for the data source on report manager as follows:
Go to the Data Sources properties page.
For the Connect Using option, select Credentials stored securely in the report server.
In User Name and Password, type credentials that can be used to access the database. If you are using SQL Server as the data source, the user name must be valid for both logging on to the server and for accessing the database that contains the data for
the report.
If the user name and password are credentials for a Windows account, select Use as Windows Credentials.
If you want the report server to pass the credentials of the user accessing the report to the server hosting the external data source, click Windows Integrated Security. In this case, the user is not prompted to type a user name or password.
For more details about Configure Data Source Properties, please see:

Hope this helps.

  • Will the reports developed in sql server 2008 r2 BIDS work when deployed on sql server 2012 reporting manager

    Will the reports developed in sql server 2008 r2 BIDS work when deployed on sql server 2012 reporting manager?
    when I check on Microsoft site it says
    Reports are not upgraded when you upload a report definition file directly to the report server
    or SharePoint site. Upgrading a report definition in SQL Server Data Tools is the only way to upgrade the .rdl file.
    When you open an .rdl file in Report Designer in SQL Server Data Tools (SSDT), if the report was
    created for a previous namespace, Report Designer automatically creates a backup file and upgrades the report to the current namespace.
    This is the only way you can upgrade a report definition file.
    Now here is another confusing statement which says
    You can upload an .rdl file created in an earlier version of Reporting Services to a SQL Server
    2012 report server and it is automatically upgraded on first use. The report server stores the report definition file in the original format. The report is automatically upgraded the first time it is viewed, but the stored report definition file remains
    unchanged.
    All I want to know is if I deploy a rdl made in 2008 r2 to 2012 will it work on the report manager of
    2012?

    I have tested this fucntionality and can confirm that ssrs 2008 r2 reports work when you deploy them on new ssrs 2012 report manager .
    No Migration is required .
    I didnt even moved report server dbs .All I did is just deployed reports on the report manager and it worked .
    "You
    can upload an .rdl file created in an earlier version of Reporting Services to a SQL Server 2012 report server and it is automatically upgraded on first use. "
    Microsoft needs to correct this the documentation is misleading

  • Sessions.xml data source not working using toplink

    I'm having some difficulty getting a data source to work. I have an ADF selectOneChoice component and I want the list of values available to be bound to a database given by the JNDI name and controlled at the j2ee container level.
    I have created a sessions.xml file
    <toplink-configuration>
    <session>
    <name>PIMSSession</name>
    <project-xml>META-INF/PIMS_ADF_TLMap.xml</project-xml>
    <session-type>
    <server-session/>
    </session-type>
    <login>
    <datasource>jdbc/PIMSDS</datasource>
    <uses-external-connection-pool>true</uses-external-connection-pool>
    </login>
    <connection-pool>
    <is-read-connection-pool>true</is-read-connection-pool>
    <name>default</name>
    <login>
    <datasource>jdbc/PIMSDS</datasource>
    <platform-class>Oracle10g</platform-class>
    <uses-external-connection-pool>true</uses-external-connection-pool>
    </login>
    </connection-pool>
    </session>
    </toplink-configuration>
    The sessions.xml points to the toplink mapping file PIMS_ADF_TLMap.xml, which contains information about the database view that is used to populate the drop down list. It also contains a deployment connection:
    <toplink:login xsi:type="toplink:database-login">
    <toplink:platform-class>oracle.toplink.platform.database.oracle.Oracle10Platform</toplink:platform-class>
    <toplink:user-name>pimsdev</toplink:user-name>
    <toplink:password>BB742416276274A494F7008B3AE0FB10</toplink:password>
    <toplink:driver-class>oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver</toplink:driver-class>
    <toplink:connection-url>jdbc:oracle:thin:@yvworad01:1521:PIMSD</toplink:connection-url>
    </toplink:login>
    The problem I'm having is that my ADF application always binds the selectOneChoice to the connection-url in the toplink mapping file instead of the datasource in the sessions.xml.
    If I remove the deployment connection from the mwp file, recompile and deploy I get a JBO-29000 error about not having a suitable driver.
    Does anyone know how to get the selectOneChoice to bind to a datasource instead of the toplink mapping connection-url?

  • Tx Data Sources NOT WORKING

    Is anyone else out there going crazy trying to get Tx Data Sources to work? out of the six connection pools I have, I can only get two of them setup with Tx Data Sources. I am able to make connections to the pools using DriverManager. However, when trying use them via a Data Source, only two of them work. This is the error:
    javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: Unable to resolve ACLINET1. Resolved: '' Unresolved:'ACLINET1' ; remaining name ''
    where ACLINET1 is the name of the pool and Data Source.
    ANy help would be great!

    Hi Mark,
    Could you check if a target is assigned to the datasources?
    Looks like it's not. Could you also show us the questionable
    code and the part of the config.xml defining pools and DataSources?

  • Create a Webi report using QAAWS as a data source

    Hi Experts,
    I am on BO 4.1 SP 3, and using the Webi Rich Client to create a WEBi report using a QAAWS url as a data soruce.
    This is the first time I am trying this, so any tips/helpful links are welcome.
    I get the below error, when I try to map the fields. But I do not have any personal data files involved.
    Thanks,

    Hi Vasu,
    We can create webi report with QAAWS.When creating the report on webservices /Personal data providers we'll not get prompt/query filters option .
    Are you trying to change source ? Instead create new source and get data.

  • Data table not working when jsp is in a subfolder

    In order to organize my jsps I created a few subfolders and placed my new jsps in there. The problem is that when I drag a data table onto the page it does not display correctly. Only the headers show up. Draging a datatable onto a jsp that is not in a subfolder works fine. What gives?

    There are known issues with moving the pages into subfolders as well as renaming subfolders... from release notes:
    Creating a web page in a subfolder causes a page bean to be created in a corresponding sub package in the Java Sources folder. When renaming a subfolder containing web pages, Creator might not properly update the package names of the page beans in the Java Sources directory. In addition, the
    managed-beans.xml file might contain leftover references to the old bean names.
    Workaround
    Use the code editor to change the package names of the Java page beans and delete obsolete
    references to the renamed beans in the managed-beans.xml file.
    http://developers.sun.com/prodtech/javatools/jscreator/community/forums/index.jsp
    This is one area where we know we need to do more testing - so there may be additional gotcha's we haven't identified yet.
    If you create the page initially in the subfolder, is all fine?

  • XML Data Button Not working when Exported onto BusinessObjectEnterprise

    I have an XML data button on a dashboard. It works fine in preview and on web. It does not work if it is exported onto Business Object server using XCelsius' Export to  BusinessObjectEnterprise.
    In the InfoView, I double click on the flash file, the flash files opens as expected, but when XML Data button is clicked, no new data seem to come in...
    If I export as Adobe file, and then post it onto the server, and view it using Info View, the XML data button works just fine.
    Please advise.

  • App Insights for web application not working when deployed to Dev server

    App Insights is not sending telemetry data for ASP.NET MVC web *requests* (page views from the JS instrumentation are fine) when the app is deployed to the Dev or Test IIS servers.  On local IIS express it works perfectly fine.    I have
    no idea how to troubleshoot this problem.
    Bert Jackson

    - the AI.config file is both in the root of the site, and the /bin folder (which was confusing the other day).  Both are correct.
    - it looks like a local browser can go to https://dc.services.visualstudio.com (it results in a 403 since its just a GET to the root).  During this test, I found that this server did NOT have the Root trust certificate (Baltimore cybertrust), which
    would cause problems when using IE locally to browse the app; the javascript AI logging was not working, because it couldnt fetch the ai.0.js file).  I got the proper root certificate installed on the server, but request logging still not working.  I
    dont believe the firewall is a problem.
    - I've verified that all binaries are indeed deployed in to the bin folder on the server
    - web.config does have the AI http module; I've verified via logging that the ApplicationInsightsWebTracking is loaded.  However, I have custom Context/Telemetry initializers, and their Initialize() methods are *NOT* being called when deployed on the
    server.  I've tried both ways of registering the initializers; via code in the Application_Start() event and also in the ApplicationInsights.config file.
    I don't know how to troubleshoot any further, to figure out if AppInsights is actually *trying* to send telemetry out and failing, or if its not actually even trying.

  • Data controls not working when JFrame is not used

    Hi
    I try to use JInternalFrame for my applications and drag and drop stops to work as soon as I change JFrame to JInternalFrame and make code.
    andirus

    Andius,
    JInternalFrame support will be added to JDeveloper 10.1.3. For now, because its only a design time limitation, you could build your frame with JFrame and then turn it into a JInternalFrame.

  • Master data check not working when loading into and ODS object

    Hi guys,
    we are loading transactional data into an ODS from a flat file.
    In the infopackage, we have checked the option :                                                
    "Do not update data if no master data exists for a characteristic".
    This option seems to be unreliable :
    For some characteristics (it seems those loaded using transfer rules (routines)), incorrect data is still loaded into the ODS even if no entry exist in the associated infoobject master data table.
    Any help appreciated.
    Many thanks !
    Pierre-Yves

    Hi Dear,
       please delete all the incorrect master data from the master data characteristic first and then try to uploading the data again .It should work, because there migth be some master data created when data were loaded with out the check before.
    And please check whether all your characteristic info object are of master data , I mean that in the infoobject defination you have checked the master data check box on the info object. If you have only text then it might fail the master data check.
    hope this help.
