SQL Server 2012 Reporting Server Default USER group instance missing

Hi
We have installed SQL Server Reporting Services 2012 on Windows 2012 Server and we can’t see any SSRS default group on windows server group list say something like (SQLServerReportServerUser$TestServer$MSRS11_50.MSSQLSERVER)
created as part of the installation
we are migrating SQL Server 2008 R2 to SQL Server 2012, we were able to see default group for Reporting Server has been created in the earlier versions like SQLServerReportServerUser$TestServer$MSRS10_50.MSSQLSERVER
Can you please assist whether we are missing anything in the SQL Server 2012 installation, this needs to be fixed as part of Report server user authentication
Thanks,
Harish

SQL Server 2012 Report Server mode is blank?

Hi, I have configured SharePoint 2013 with SQL Server 2012 on Windows Server 2012
with complete features on the same server.
But when I checked Report Server mode under Report Service Configuration Manager it’s
showing blank means Report Server mode neither in native mode nor in SharePoint integrated mode.
What is the issue?
I want
Report Server mode should be in SharePoint integrated mode.

You need to install the Reporting Services - SharePoint feature from the SQL Server installation media onto the SharePoint server. You then need to start the Service Instances in Manage Services on Server and create a new SSRS Service Application in Manage
Service Applications.

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?
<o:p>

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

Hi Sorin,
SQL Server 2012 Reporting Services (SSRS) includes stand-alone and ClickOnce versions of Report Builder. The ClickOnce version can be used with Reporting Services installed in native or SharePoint integrated mode. For more information about how to start
Report Builder, please see:

Sharepoint 2013 SSRS Interaction with Sql Server 2012 Reporting Services connecting to Sql Server 2008 R2 database

Hi
I'm working on upgrading sharepoint 2010 to sharepoint 2013 with sql server 2008 r2. I've ran into some problems but have been able to get a test farm upgraded. However to run SSRS 2013 it seems Sql Server 2012 Reporting Services are required. Upgrading
to a full sql server 2012 database isn't an option. I know that sql server 2012 reporting services can use sql server 2008 r2 as a catalog and content database so I was wondering could this be a workaround? Importantly would I need a separate machine/virtual
machine to host sql server 2012 reporting services? or could it live on the sql server 2008 r2 machine? Any pointers appreciated. Thanks Dan

Remember that SSRS must be deployed on the SharePoint server. Having said that, yes you can install SSRS 2012 SP1 on a server running SQL 2008 R2. And yes, you can use 2008 R2 as your Database Engine server while SSRS 2012 SP1 runs on the SharePoint server.

Share Data Source between multiple report projects in Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Reporting Services

I have a reports solution in 2012 which contains multiple report projects one each for target deployment folder and we use TFS 2012 for report deployment.
We have a template project which has a bunch of template reports and all the datasources used in different reports.
When I develop a report, I cannot "Preview" in TFS but, for deploy this used to work fine util the reports solution was in TFS 2010 & Visual Studio 2008 R2. Since we moved to TFS 2012 & SSRS 2012 not being able to deploy till I create all
the necessary datasources for each project and now all the developers complaining that they cannot develop reports in TFS itself as they cannot preview (this problem was existing previously) and now not being able to deploy as it errors for each report "Could
not find specified rds file". I tried messing around with the .rptproj file DataSources tag that did not help either by modifying it like below.
<DataSources>
<ProjectItem>
<Name>DB.rds</Name>
<FullPath>Template\Data Source\DB.rds</FullPath>
</ProjectItem>
</DataSources>
Is there a way I could share a Data Source between multiple projects in Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Reporting Services?
Thanks in advance.............
Ione

Hi ione721,
According to your description, you want to create a shared data source which works for multiple projects. Right?
In Reporting Services, A shared data source is a set of data source connection properties that can be referenced by multiple reports, models, and data-driven subscriptions that run on a Reporting Services report server. It must be within one project.
We can't specify one data source working for multple projects. In this scenario, we suggest you put those reports into one project. Otherwise you can only create one data source for each project.
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.
Best Regards,
Simon Hou

VCM installation help needed on SQL DB and Reporting server

Hi All,
I'm new to VCM and now i got stuck at the SQL DB and Report server portion.
I'm running the vcm server on VM and the SQL is a physical server, both are sitting on the same LAN.
I have create the SQL DB but VCM just fail to validate the DB and report server.
I login to VCM using a Domain account for installation, and i tried to testing the DB using ODBC from the window, result fail.
Error message as attach.
I'm now totally lost on SQL portion.
My Question:
Is there any configuration needed on SQL DB?
How to get the reporting server to working?
What port is needed to it all working??
VCM server Ms Win2012.
SQL version 2012.
Many thanks to all who reply.

Hi Simonhoo79,
For SSRS, first check whether the report server link is accessible from your browser : "http://s01-fes-vcm1:80/ReportServer" . If you continue to get 404 error there also, then you need to reconfigure you report server first before proceeding to vcm installation. Follow the steps on below link on how to reconfigure report server using report services configuration Manager for 404 error.
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sqlserver/en-US/75910bcb-a879-4eb7-9757-acc45201fa3a/can-not-connect-to-reportserver-http-404-file-not-found?forum=sqlexpress
For SQL server ODBC connection,
Dont create ODBC connection for SQL Native Client. Create ODBC connection for SQL Server.
1. Open ODBC Data Source Administrator
2. Click User DSN tab and Click Add button.
3. Select SQL server and click finish
4. Give name and description and Give the SQL server name (with instance name if your using named instance) or IP in the Server text box.
5. Click Next and select either Windows authentication or sql authentication based on your SQL server authentication mode and click next.
6. If the details given are correct then it will proceed further and check "Change the dafault database to" to your VCM database
7. Click next and finish and try test data source.
VCM 5.7.2 and below will support installation only on windows server 2008 R2 and it doesn't support windows server 2012 but it support both 2008 and 2012 sql servers.

Issues while migration reports to 2012 report server .

I am stuck in report server related issue . Following are steps and log files details for migrating report server database from 2005 to 2012 :-
Back up the encryption key for the report server database.
Back up the report server database a SQL Server database.
Back up the report server configuration files.
Restore the database from the backup created , As temporary database and the main database are depend so they should be restored together.
Start the Reporting Services Configuration tool and connect to the Reporting Services instance you just installed.
Configure URLs for the report server and Report Manager
Configure the report server database, selecting the existing report server database from your previous installation. After successful configuration, the report server services
will restart, and once a connection is made to the report server database, the database will be automatically upgraded to SQL Server 2012 Reporting Services.
As we were not able to figure out the password I tried another approach to test if the
report server works after deleting the encrypted data . I deleted encrypted data.
Error below is shown in log files when I try to access report manager .

Hello Manish,
I am sorry for my delay.
As we know, the service pack of SQL Server is free to download and install, and the latest SP for SQL server 2005 is SP4, so that Microsoft recommend that we migrate the service from SQL Server 2005 SP4 to SQL Server 2012. If you still want to upgrade the
service from SSRS 2005 SP3, we cannot guarantee that all features can work properly, and we did not test it yet. Therefore, I still recommend you upgrade the SQL server 2005 to SP4 if possible.
In addition, you can refer to the following article on MSDN to see whether it can meet your requirement. It is a general step to migrate the SSRS.

I hope it is helpful to you.

How to set different default interactive reports for different user groups?

I'm probably overlooking an obvious solution, but how do I set different default interactive report for different user groups?
For the same interactive report, I want one set of users to see a default where the default filter is based on column X. However, another group of users doesn't have authorization to see that column so I need to set the default filter to something else for them.
Thanks

You can set a filter on a report in a URL - would that help? I think with apex 4.x you can also link to a saved default report or alternative report...

Server 2012 Print Server and DNS CNAME - setspn advice

Hi,
I am building a new Server 2012 Print server. What I would like to do is utilise a DNS CNAME when I deploy the printer, rather than its host name.
I have used 'setspn' to accomplish this, running the following command:
setspn -A HOST/<ALIAS> <hostname>
Now when I browse the alias I can see the installed printer. The problem I have is when I then deploy this via Group Policy it uses the servers host name instead, but it does work. If I manually edit
the GPO to reflect the alias name instead it does not deploy the printer. Moreover the indication on the 2012 server has gone so it does not see that it has any printers deployed.
When I browse the computers host name and try to manually install the printer it will state that it is downloading the drivers but never seems to complete. If I browse it's alias and try the same
thing I receive an error stating that it couldn't connect to the printer. The client machine in this instance is Windows 7 SP1 x64.
What am I doing wrong? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Howard

I've been struggling with the same problem, for a Windows 2012 R2 print server.
I've added SPN entries and registry tweaks (OptionalHostnames, DisableStrictNameChecking, DnsOnWire etc.), but still couldn't connect printers using the alias, even though I could browse shares on the server, using the alias.
While not explicitly covering 2012 R2, this KB article helped me:
KB2546625.
Adding the alias to the local hosts file solved it for me.
Now, I wanted to be sure that I wasn't applying a bunch of unnecessary tweaks, so I went ahead and removed all registry tweaks (including DnsOnWire mentioned in the KB article), the SPN entry for the alias and rebooted - it still works!
In my case, maybe on Windows Server 2012 R2 in general, all that was needed was to add the alias in the local hosts file.

Report links by user group

hi, is it possible to set the "report links" per user group
for example, the report links are Download, Refresh for user group Sales.
the report links are Download, Refresh and Modify for user group Sales Admin.
Just wanna know whether this can be done.
thanks!

If "Sales" doesn't have the Answers privilege, then the "Modfiy" link won't be rendered even if specified for the request. So you can just keep it in and all users having access to Answers will see it. Read-only users (i.e. no Answers) won't.
Cheers,
