Setting Credentials in Reporting Services

I am using SSRS 2005 and importing a report that runs fine in Visual Studio 2005 into an existing 3rd party Windows based software, part of which provides reporting functions already in use. the third party software, as well as VS 2005 are on a Windows Server 2003 machine. After importing to the 3rd party software the error below occurs.
"An attempt was made to set credentials for a data source 'Manitou' associated with the report. Report data source settings are specified in a way that prevents credentials from being submitted to the report server."
One issue that causes this problem is if the XML document I am importing has an entry of "Integrated Security = true" However, the last three files I have imported trying to get this report to work do not have this entry, but I am still receiving this error.
What are some other causes for this error?

I have solved the error ""An attempt was made to set credentials for a data source 'Manitou' associated with the report. Report data source settings are specified in a way that prevents credentials from being submitted to the report server."
The problem was that there was a line in the .rdl file like <DataSourceReference>database name here</DataSourceReference>
This is apparently not sufficient for Report Server authentication. I found a working existing report that had
<ConnectionProperties>
        <DataProvider>SQL</DataProvider>
        <ConnectString>Data Source=Server Name Here;Initial Catalog=database naem here</ConnectString>
      </ConnectionProperties>
in the file. I added this and removed the "DataSourceReference" line, imported and it worked.

Passing Credentials to Reporting Services from a iframe in a web part within Sharepoint

Okay, So I am trying to pass windows authentication from sharepoint into a tab withing a webpart that loads reporting services. Right now the users log into Sharepoint and when they click on the reporting tab within a webpart they are prompted to login again. I can't pass session variables because the reporting services is outside of the webpart and is being hosted within an Iframe. I don’t know if it is possible to impersonate or store the login credentials from Sharepoint temporally and send it to the Reporting Services log in prompt. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Same question here. I have a page viewer web part looing at a SRS report. I don't want to have to maintain security in both SP and SRS

Set report_path Oracle9iAS Report Services on Linux

Hi,
I have a problem.
I'm trying to set Oracle9iAS Report Services on Linux.
I would create an report_path and so I add in <server_name>.conf the following line :
<property name="sourceDir" value="ORACLE_HOME/myReports/rdf"/>
In this mode when I run the report through the URL I must write only
http://.....?report=<report_name>.rdf+........ .
Unfortunately this doesn't happend.
I show this errors :
REP-110: Unable to open file 'xxxxxxx.rdf'.
REP-1070: Error while opening or saving a document.
REP-0110: Unable to open file 'xxxxxxx.rdf'.
But If I run the report this mode
http://.....?report=ORACLE_HOME/myReports/rdf/<report_name>.rdf+........ .
the report works fine.
Can you help me, please ??
Kind Regards
Giordano

Hi
<property name="sourceDir" value="ORACLE_HOME/myReports/rdf"/>
Hope you have not missed out like '$' prefixing to ORACLE_HOME. If you are doubtful you can even give a try with full physical location rather than using environment variables.
Also have you shutdown and restarted the Server in order for the above configuration change to take effect.
Thanks,
Vinod

EPSI Dashboard problem after moving from reporting services 2005 to 2012

I have created a Dashboard with Allscripts EPSI with a Reporting Services Report. After we changed from Micrsosoft Reporting Services 2005 to 2012, the report now gets cut in half. I turned a ticket in to Allscripts and they said that it had
nothing to do with their software, that it had something to do with a setting on our Reporting Services server. Please point me into the right direction.

Hi Jason,
Based on my understanding, after you move the report from Reporting Services 2005 to Reporting Services 2012, the report can’t display well.
In Reporting Services, upgrading a report definition in SQL Server Data Tools is the only way to upgrade the .rdl file. In your scenario, if the .rdl file isn’t upgraded in the new environment, it’s expected that the report won’t display well. So please
open an .rdl file in Report Designer in SQL Server Data Tools (SSDT) within the new environment, then the Report Designer will automatically create a backup file and upgrades the report to the current namespace. After a report is upgraded, you might notice
additional errors, warnings, and messages. This is the result of changes to the internal report object model and processing components, which cause messages to appear when underlying problems in the report are detected.

Upgrade Reports

Service Accounts for Reporting Service in SQL Server Failover Cluster setup

I am setting up 2 Report Services (SSRS) in SQL Failover Clustering (Version: 2012SP1) on Windows 2012, as part of scale out architecture.
There are 2 options to configure the service account for SSRS:
Option 1) Using domain accounts, as what I have done for DB Engine and SQL Agent.
Option 2) accept the default, which is virtual account for SSRS. Per documentation URL:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143504.aspx
which is the recommended one? is it option 2?
There is security note on above URL as well, but does not clearly mention that option 1 is not recommended.
Security Note: Always run SQL Server services by using the lowest possible user rights. Use a MSA or virtual account when possible. When MSA and virtual accounts are not possible, use a specific low-privilege user account or domain account instead
of a shared account for SQL Server services. Use separate accounts for different SQL Server services. Do not grant additional permissions to the SQL Server service account or the service groups. Permissions will be granted through group membership or granted
directly to a service SID, where a service SID is supported.
Thanks very much for your help!

Hi Luo Donghua,
In SQL Server Failover Cluster Instance, personally two options can run well. If you use the virtual account for SQL Server Reporting Service. Virtual accounts in Windows Server 2008 R2 and Windows 7 are managed local accounts that provide the features to
simplify service administration. The virtual account is auto-managed, and the virtual account can access the network in a domain environment.
Of cause, you can also use domain accounts in your clustering.
Just make sure your service account is set up here, or that it is using a proper built-in account.For more information, see:http://ermahblerg.com/2012/11/08/cluster-ssrs-in-2008/

Configuration Manager 2012 R2 - SRS Reporting Services not configuring Report Server

Hi all,
I am running stand-alone primary site and remote (shared) SQL 2012 SP1 on Windows 2012 R2 Standard. Remote SQL server is currently hosting multiple instances and Configuratoin Manager is running on a custom instance. SCOM databases also co-exist on the same
SQL environment (different instance with SSRS installed & running perfectly).
After setting up the Reporting Services role on Configuration Manager environment, srsrpsetup.log & srsrpMSI.log states installation is successful. However, when monitoring srsrp.log file, we encounter the below message -

2. Created new Report Server database on our instance and reconfigured Reporting Services to this DB.
3. Un-installed and re-installed Reporting Services role in Configuration Manager
4. Un-installed and re-installed SSRS on Configuration Manager (dedicated) SQL instance after removing Reporting Services role in CM12.
I have referred couple of links on forum and none seem to help resolve this issue.
Let me know if there is anything specific I missed out from my end. Appreciate any assistance.

It seems that Reporting Services for SCOM and SCCM cannot co-exist on the same server (it sounds like a bad idea anyway)

RC0: RS Installation Problem - The credentials you provided for Reporting Services service are invalid. To continue ...

Hi
When installing 2008 RC0 I get the following error message:
"The credentials you provided for Reporting Services service are invalid. To continue, provide a valid account and password for the Reporting Services service.
Error code: 0x84B40000"
During the installation process it never prompted for the credentials to be used for the Reporting Services service (i.e. the Reporting Services service did not appear under the "Service Accounts" tab during the Server Configuration stage of the installation. The other services did appear). In the "Ready to Install" stage the Account under Reporting Services, Service Configuration is given as "udefined". Everything else installed without a problem.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
Egmont

I had a same and similar issue.
I finish the installation by providing SQL Agnt and SQL Service by NT AUTHORITY\NETWORK SERVICE and blank password. Once complete the installation I changed the Service Account by services.msc to SQL SA account.
Reason: Service account is not granted for Log on as Service.
Solution: Grant the SA to Log on as Service.
Abu
Bad Idea When you first install Microsoft SQL Server to run under a Microsoft Windows NT account, SQL Server sets for that Windows NT account various Windows user rights and permissions on certain files, folders, and registry keys. If you later change the startup
account for SQL Server (the MSSQLServer service) and the SQL Server Agent service by using SQL Server Enterprise Manager (SEM) or SQL Server Configuration Manager (SSCM), SEM automatically assigns all the required permissions and Windows user rights to the
new startup account for you so that you do not have to do anything else. We recommend that you use this is the approach to change the service account.

How to set a default date as a parameter in Microsoft Reporting Services 2008 to January 1st

How can I set a default parameter for date for 01/01/yyyy.

Hi Giss68,
If I understand correctly, you want to set the first day of current year as a default value of a parameter in Microsoft Reporting Services 2008 report.
If in this scenario, we can use the expression below as the default value in the parameter:
=DateAdd("d",-DatePart(DateInterval.DayOfYear,Today,0,0)+1,Today)
The following document about DateAdd function is for your reference:

SharePoint Reporting Services, No Credentials are available in the security package

Hi all,
I have problem to solve regarding rendering Reports inside SharePoint. Scenario as follows.
1. There are two domains with two-way trusted connections. We have confirmed it finding users for both domains in the people pickers
2. Kerberos has been configured in SharePoint
3. Users from the domain that SharePoint is installed can render reports inside SharePoint but users from the other domain get following error when they try render reports.
4. users from the other domain can render reports when they browse direclty to the admin tool of reporting-services server.
5. users from the other domain can run klist and get a about 15 tickets.
this is the error the users from the domain get when they try render report inside SharePoint.
An Error has occured during reporting processing (rsProcessingAborted)
Cannot create a connection to data source 'theSourceSSAS' (rsErrorOpeningConnectiong)
Authentication failed
No Credentials are available in the security package
Thank you very much for your help and appreciate all kind of advice.

Hi Medes,
From the error message, it seems that the issue is due to the accounts in another domain has no permission to access the data source theSourceSSAS.
I recommend to use Stored credential when creating the data source and then check the results.
Please also check if the Claims to Windows Token Service is running with Local System account.
If not, please make sure that the account running this service has the permission below:
Act as part of the operating system.
Impersonate a client after authentication.
Log on as a service.
Thanks,
Victoria

SQL 2008 Reporting Services: Setting BackgroundRepeat = NoRepeat in SQL 2008

Good day
I have an report that has a background image set. The BackgroundRepeat property = Clip (which is the alternative to 2005 NoRepeat). This background image is only suppose to print on the first page. When the report was still in SQL 2005 it printed fine,
with the image displaying on the first page but NOT on the second page. After the conversion to SQL 2008 I noticed that the image is now printing on both pages.
Please advise on the way forward. Is there another property that I need to provide to make the image only print on the first page?
Your response will be much appresiated.
Kind Regards
Ronelle

Hi Ronelle,
The
BackgroundRepeat property indicates how the background image fills the available space. So if set the property to
Clip in Reporting Services 2008 or NoRepeat in Reporting Services 2005, the background image will not repeat in both horizontal and vertical in current page, but it will be displayed as background in every
page.
However, as you mentioned, the background image only print on the first page as you desired in your report in Reporting Services 2005. If you achieve this just by setting the
BackgroundRepeat property to NoRepeat, could please post the specific version of your Reporting Services 2005 which you can find it in the bottom of your Report Server pages? It will be helpful for us to provide you
further assistance.
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.

Trouble with MSSQL Reporting Services and Oracle: PLS-00553: character set

First off, Oracle version is 8.1.7.4.0. SQL is 64bit 2005 on Windows 2003 with all the latest patches. We’re using the Oracle 10.2 client on the SQL box.
A few months ago queries against Oracle stopped working on our MSSQL reporting services server - after a service pack on this same system.
I ended up having to grant permissions on Oracle directories to eliminate the first error and then renamed the NLS_LANG registry entry (effectively deleting it) to get rid of the second error.
The second error was: ORA-12705: Cannot access NLS data files or invalid environment specified. I don’t have docs on the first error, but it was a reference to a file access problem. Looking at this error again makes me think that I still have some file access problems.
The old value for the NLS_LANG registry key was: AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8MSWIN1252
Everything has been working fine since then.
Now we are moving some new reports into production which use Oracle stored procedures and they are getting this error:
--- End of inner exception stack trace ---
w3wp!processing!8!7/27/2009-09:26:09:: e ERROR: An exception has occurred in data source 'CSUD3_RPTAPL'. Details: Microsoft.ReportingServices.ReportProcessing.ReportProcessingException: Query execution failed for data set 'MYDATASET'. ---> System.Data.OracleClient.OracleException: ORA-06550: line 1, column 57:
PLS-00553: character set name is not recognized
ORA-06550: line 0, column 0:
PL/SQL: Compilation unit analysis terminated
I've created a test package as below, which has also gotten the same error.
create or replace
PACKAGE BODY SQLTEST AS
PROCEDURE OPEN_CURSOR (ResultCursor OUT T_CURSOR,
SQLTESTIN IN VARCHAR
AS
l_query varchar2(3000);
BEGIN
l_query := 'Hi there';
open ResultCursor for select l_query "field1" from dual;
END OPEN_CURSOR;
END SQLTEST;
I tried setting the NLS_Lang value back to its old value, but it did not fix this problem – and made all the regular oracle queries break again.
From what I've read, the client should be using the database default if the charset is not specified on the client.
Can anyone advise on what the problem might be?
Thanks!
Sam Greene

With all due respects I can not think of a worse reporting tool than MS Reporting Services.
Give serious consideration to getting a real report writing tool from Oracle or SAP (Business Objects / Crystal).
Reporting Services is one nightmare after another.

Permanently set registry EnableRbacReporting=0 in reporting services ?

Hi Guys and gals
I would like to permanently disable the "EnableRbacReporting" setting i SCCM 2012 R2 - Reporting Services.
How is this possible and is this in fact possible?
/Leth

Hi Garth
I don't know how to explain this in an easy way, so instead let me put out the scenarios i have tried:
Local System with EnableRbacReporting=1 Without any SPN's registered other than the ones the system makes for us:
When this is the case we cannot remotely access the reportserver and pass variables to the reports (using the
HTTP://Servername/ReportServer.aspx?blabla), but we can access the report and manually give the report the parameters.
Execution time: ~8-10 minutes.
Local System with EnableRbacReporting=0 Without any SPN's registered other than the ones the system makes for us:
Everything works as it should. We can access the report, and pass the username and device variables used in our URL.
Execution time: ~20-30 seconds.
Service Account EnableRbacReporting=1 with SPN registered on the username both with a port given and without a port given (in total 4 SPN registrations):
We can access the report server and pass the variables given to the URL which we need and everything in regards to Reports work as they should.
BUT, the Web Services which we also have on this server does not work, and no SPN registrations changes that (it run's under other user accounts).
Execution time: ~8-10 minutes.
So, as you can see it's not a matter of the execution time when we run on a service account, it's a matter of the remote usage.
In regards of your 1% overhead, this is NOT the numbers we see in this environment.
I can't see how changing the queries do much, when i can conclude that when simply changing the registry changes the execution time. (also, it's a builtin report).
So if we should look into something in that regard, it might be better to look at the stored procedure running the RBA? (or am i off here?)
The installation is as follows:
Server A: SCCM 2012 R2 CU2
Server B: SQL 2008 R2 SP2 CU13 / Reporting Services
Server C: WSUS
Server D: MP
Server E: MP
DP's in total is about 80
And this is not a subject to change.
TBH.
I would very much like it if we used the RBA, but to this customer, it gives him NO value, and i cannot possibly see how i can keep using the RBA other than if i get the other web services off this machine.
And this is not in scope atm.
Therefore i would like it if we could get back to the original question.
Is it possible to change this setting for good?

Setting different reporting services url via IReportServerConnection

y report. I have problem using more than one reporting services urls via IReportServerConnection.
Specifically, I need to display report from different report services url on different page via IReportServerConnection. Each page uses report viewer web forms control. The problem is that how to assign different report services url for different page.

Hello,
Based on the limited information, I am not very clearly about you issue. In order to solve the problem more efficiently, I need to clarify some information. Are you get some error messages when you set EnableRemoteErrors to true? Or do you mean that it doesn’t
throw error message to us, but the property is useless? And could you tell me the edition of your SQL Server?
It is benefit for us to do further analysis. Thank you for your understanding.

How to set the minimial right to run a report only on SQL express Reporting Services

Hi,
I tried several times on setup a SERVERNAME\USERA from the "Home-Report Manager --> Site Settings --> Security --> New Role Assignment..
I also checked it already have the roles (System Administrator, System User) being assigned
When I try to run the report remotely via
http://ThisISdomainNameURL/Reports_SQLEXPRESS/Pages/Report.aspx?ItemPath=
User 'SERVERNAME\USERA' does not have required permissions. Verify that sufficient permissions have been granted and Windows User Account Control (UAC) restrictions have been addressed
The permissions granted to user 'SERVERNAME\USERA' are insufficient for performing this operation (rsAccessDenied)

Hi kkcci88888,
Based on your description, you are experiencing the problem when login on the Report Server remotely, you got some error about required for permissions, right?
Generally, Reporting Services uses role-based security to grant user access to a report server, and there are two types of roles: Item-level roles and System-level roles. On a new installation, only local administrators have access to a report server. If
the user need to have access to reports, folders, models and shared data sources, we can assign Item-level roles on the root node (the Home folder) or on specific folders or items. In this case, you can check if you have assigned an Item-level role first.
bellow are about how to assign an Item-level role:
Start Internet Explorer together with the Run as administrator option. To do this, click Start, click All Programs, right-click Internet Explorer, and then click Run as administrator.
Open Report Manager. By default, the Report Manager URL is
http://<ServerName>/reports_sqlexpress. If you use a named instance of Reporting Services, the Report Manager URL is
http://<ServerName>/reports_<InstanceName>.
In the Home dialog box, click Properties.
Click New Role Assignment.
Type a Windows user account name by using this format: <Domain>\<User>
Click to select the Role(5 default roles) check box and click OK.
If you already assigned a role for the user, this issue might be caused by the UAC settings, you can find more details in this link:http://support.microsoft.com/kb/934164 and you can follow the steps below
to do the right configuration on your remote computer:
Start Windows Internet Explorer.
On the Tools menu, click Internet Options.
Click Security.
Click Trusted Sites and then click Sites.
Under Add this Web site to the zone, type http://<ServerName>. If you are not using HTTPS for the default site, click to clear the Require server certification (https:) for all sites in this zone check box,
Click Add.
Repeat step 4 and step 5 to add the http://localhost URL, and then click Close.
Close Report Manager and Use Internet Explorer without the Run as administrator option to reopen Report Manager.
