Reports server in iAS 10g ignores some xml settings when running report

Hi, has anyone else noticed that when you run a report on the reports server from iAs10g it seems to ignore certain settings you specified? I am talking about:
- tag names when they are (case insensitively) equal to the result column name from the query (I changed the tag names from uppercase to lowercase and this is ignored, apparently they are compared case insensitively)
- the setting "Outer XML Tag" for a group is default set to Yes and ignored when set to No. (this means that for the repeating groups you always have an opening and a closing tag around them called LIST_GROUPNAME)
These settings are working fine in the builder itself but apparently ignored in the reportsserver.
Or am I the only one that has his problem?

Hi Amy,
Is this a web or windows app? check the Event logs, it may show you what is hanging or add logging to your app to see what CR can't get to or what it is waiting for.
Turn on SQL Profiler to see if the query is even getting to the Server.
Thank you
Don

XML errors when running specific reports in SCCM 2012, using SQL Server 2008 R2 Reporting Services

I've posted this to the SCCM 2012 forum and only received one response so far that states that this is a known issue that has been discussed before and isn't easy to fix; I was not given any actual solution either. Since this involves SSRS I
thought I would try my luck here as well.
I'm having almost exactly the same problem as is referenced in this article: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/uk/sqlreportingservices/thread/587a3319-bc54-4d30-bb3f-bb90a0c6ec50.  When
I try to run either of these reports (Computers with specific software registered in Add Remove Programs; Count of instances of specific software registered with Add or Remove Programs) I receive the XML error shown in the attached screenshot. I'm fairly
sure the problem is the same as the other admin was experiencing and I just need to remove the unprintable characters (of the application name) from the dbo.v_Add_Remove_Program column.
The error references 0xFFFF but I could not find what that exactly translates too, other than it appears to be at the end of the spectrum for Unicode characters. I used the following sql query to search for the 0xFFFF entry, but no results were found:
use CM_UV2
Select distinct
CHARINDEX(cast(0xFFFF as varchar(1)),DisplayName0),
DisplayName0
from
dbo.v_Add_Remove_Programs
Where
CHARINDEX(cast(0xFFFF as varchar(1)),DisplayName0) > 0
When I used the original hex value of 0x28 I get plenty of results returned with "(" in them so the query seems sound. One of the articles I was searching mentioned running the query manually using the Management Studio and looking for strange characters
there but I'm not sure how to do that.
Basically I just need help finding the offending character and removing it. I also need to be able to replicate this for other strings as this looks like an error that will reoccur whenever any new software appears that has weird encoding in the title.
Thank you in advance for any help given.

Hi Uber,
This is a known issue that error occurs when running report "Count of instances of specific software registered with Add or Remove Programs" due to non-printable characters for XML. Based on internal research, the hotfix for this issue will be
included in the System Center 2012 Configuration Manager Service Pack 1.
As a workaround, you can remove the nonprintable character populated into the report parameter by referring to the following KB article:
http://support.microsoft.com/KB/914159
Hope this helps.

Error Message: The attempt to connect to the report server failed. Check your connection information and that the report server is a compatible version. The request failed with HTTP status 404: Not Found.

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 attempt to connect to the report server failed. Check your connection information and that the report server is a compatible version.
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:

What is the recommended number of clients per Mac server? Also what are some recommended specs when purchasing an Apple machine that will have Mac OS X server installed?

What is the recommended number of clients per Mac server? Also what are some recommended specs when purchasing an Apple machine that will have Mac OS X server installed? We have around 300 clients that need to be enroled on the Mac server. I want to know what is the recommended amount of clients a Mac server should contain. Also what are some recommended specs to make sure the server will flawlessly?

Hello cpreasbeck,
Thank you for contacting Apple Support Communities.
I was able to find the following transition guide for Xserve that provides some workload guidance to determine performance when planning a server deployment.
Transition Guide Xserve
http://images.apple.com/xserve/pdf/L422277A_Xserve_Guide.pdf
On page 9, Performance there is a chart that provides maximum numbers of connected users for various activities such as file sharing, mail, web, calendar, directory services and Time Machine and the CPU used as a server (Xserve, Mac Pro, Mac Mini). This information is a bit dated as the referenced software is Snow Leopard Server (OS X 10.6), and the hardware is older also, but it should give you a general idea of what you might need to look for.

Moved report server to new machine with all old settings

Dear all,
I am going to moved to new server machine for SSRS and i have 200+ reports ,,

is there simple way?? rather than doing one by one ..

Help me please ??
Dilip Patil..

Hi Dilip,
After testing the issue in my environment, we can try to use the RS.exe utility to execute a Reporting Services RSS script that copies content items and settings from one SQL Server Reporting Services report server to another report server.
To achieve this goal, please refer to the following steps:
using the RS.exe utility Download the script file from the CodePlex site
Reporting Services RS.exe script migrates content to a local folder, for example c:\rss\ssrs_migration.rss.
Open a command prompt with administrative privileges.
Navigate to the folder containing the ssrs_migration.rss file.
Run the following command to migrate contents from the native mode Sourceserver to the native mode Targetserver:
rs.exe -i ssrs_migration.rss -e Mgmt2010 -s
http://SourceServer/ReportServer -u Domain\User -p password -v ts="http://TargetServer/reportserver" -v tu="Domain\Userser" -v tp="password"
Besides, if the destination report server is SharePoint mode, we can also try to use Reporting Services Migration Tool to achieve your requirement. For more details, please see:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn600370.aspx
If there are any other questions, please feel free to ask.

Failed to accept user input when run report on Web

I've testing a report with one input parameter. It's a date with default current date. It is done by using SQL 'select sysdate from dual;' has been added to before form trigger. User is allowed to input any date other than the default sysdate before submitting the report. The report works fine when run in report builder, but it's failed to accepted user input date when called through web browser. The report still uses the current date as SQL parameter rather than user input date.
Can anyone help me to fix this bug?
The report is develped by Oracle 9i and is saved and run in .rdf format.

I created a report with a user defined parameter p_date of DATE type. In the layout model, I created a field with p_date as data source. In the before form trigger, I put
'select sysdate into :p_date from dual;
I run the report through rwservlet:
http://host:port/reports/rwservlet?report=datetest.rdf&destype=cache&desformat=html&userid=scott/tiger@orcl&paramform=yes
In the html parameter form, I change the date from default current date to a future date and that date is shown in the final report.
So I can't reproduce the bug.
One thing you can try it to turn on reports server trace file, see what command line is sent to reports server when you submitting the parameter form.
Thanks,

Problems With Reports server in Oracle 10g IAS

I am having problems with the reports server. It keeps on giving me the error below
REP-51002: Bind to Reports Server <myreportservername> failed
I am able to correct it by restarting my server while my backup server is off the network and playing around with my server configurations. It works for a while 2 weeks to a month then I start getting the same error again.
Could someone please point out to me where I could be going wrong?
Is there any known problems when 2 IAS are on the same network. I am on Windows 2000 Server.
Thanks

Custom Reports Server Issue (upgrading 10g to Weblogic 11g)

I am having an issue with "Anonymous' user showing up when I go into the console of the Weblogic server to see all the report requests. In 10g (which we are upgrading from), I have report requests that I do a Preview from within Oracle Forms. When I do the RUN_REPORT_OBJECT/SHOW.WEB_DOCUMENT, it captures the User account and put it in the console with that username. On 11.1.1.4, using same form/report, it doesn't capture the username. If I call the reports server from the database, it does work fine.
Anyone have any ideas if there's something I have to do in Oracle Forms to put that username in or if it's a setting on the Custom Reports Server that i need to set so that it captures the name from the Oracle Forms session.

Hi A. Drieux,
Thanks for the reply. i have some questions on ODI.
Now we are using hyperion 11.1.1.3 with ODI 10.1.3. We are upgrading hyperion version 11.1.1.3 to 11.1.2.2.
Is it possible, to use the same ODI 10.1.3 version to upgrade version(hyperion 11.1.2.2) also?
Reply would be appreciated.
Thanks,

ORA-44356 when running report from Oracle Application Server 10g

All,
We have some reports that we developed using Reports Builder 10g. We use a few program units that run with every record that use the exec_sql package to run dynamic sql in a remote database. Everything runs fine when we test the reports in Reports Builder. After we compile the reports into the .rep format and place them on our Oracle Application Server 10g portal instance, we are running into the subject error when we try to run the report from the website. From the research that I've done, it seems that this error has to do with the use of exec_sql, but there is not too much info on the web regarding this error number. Running a trace when running the report in Reports Builder doesn't show any errors, and to further complicate things, this error only occurs on some reports...others that use the exec_sql package work fine.
Does anyone have any ideas as to why this might be happening?
Thanks for your help,
Tom

Nothing is different between the reports in the exec_sql section. The strange part is that the reports will bomb out seemingly at random, at different times, and during the execution of different program units. I was able to find a work-around using DB Links, but I'd rather not use the DB Link if I can avoid it.

How do i now the name of my report server ? (version 10g)

i will like you to help me.
i want to know how can i identify my report server name?. i look for a file name in %oracle_home%\reports\conf and look for a .conf file, but i am not sure.
when i tried to run my report i got this error : frm-41213 Unable to connect to the report server

First, ORACLE_HOME is not used to locate reports. The env variable REPORTS_PATH is used to locate report files (rep, rdf, etc).
Second, REP-56092 suggests you have set DESTYPE to SCREEN. This is really out of context when calling a report from Forms. The DESTYPE should be set to CACHE in this case.
As for the FRM-92101, this is generally the result of a Forms Runtime crash (on the server). This is likely the result of incorrect coding in your application.
Last, I would recommend that you review the Forms/Reports Integration white paper and the Publishing Reports to the Web document. These documents explain how to correctly call a report from Forms.
Forms/Reports Integration
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/forms/pdf/10g/frm10gsrw10g.pdf
If your report uses a "Reports" parameter form you will also need to review the document title "Oracle Forms Services - Using Run_Report_Object to call Reports with a Parameter Form ", found on the following page.
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/forms/techlisting10g.html
