SQL Server browser services.

we have two instance of sql server 2014,
In Services, It shows only one SQL Server browser services.
Is it true there is only one SQL Browser service for both instances.
Thanks
V

Yes, This is normal.
Prior to SQL Server 2000, only one instance of SQL Server could be installed on a computer. SQL Server listened for incoming requests on port 1433, assigned to SQL Server by the official Internet
Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA). Only one instance of SQL Server can use a port, so when SQL Server 2000 introduced support for multiple instances of SQL Server, SQL Server Resolution Protocol (SSRP) was developed to listen on UDP port 1434. This listener
service responded to client requests with the names of the installed instances, and the ports or named pipes used by the instance. To resolve limitations of the SSRP system, SQL Server 2005 introduced the SQL Server Browser service as a replacement for SSRP.

Unable to start SQL Server Browser service in Sql server 2005

we are unable to start the SQL browser service on one of our machine with below error.
I believe this to be the reason, why we could not connect to the instance with below error
I tried troubleshooting as mentioned here, by changing
value in registry from 1 to 0, but still no luck.
SQLservices are also running.
Please help on how to resolve this!

Hello,
You say that SQL Server Browser Service belongs to a SQL Server 2005, but based on the name of the instance is a SQL Server
2012 instance.
Do you have any issues installing/uninstalling SQL Server 2005 or 2012? One of them 32-bit and the other 64-bit?
Hope this helps.

SQL Server Browser service group does not exists. Check for earlier failures in the setup. during sql express 2008 R2 setup

Hello,
I have an issue while installing SQL Server 2008 R2 Express. When I was installing SQL Server, I occurred an error message as shown in the figure.
I have followed couple of links as in
this and
this links but it did not fix the issue. Can anyone help me on this issue?
Regards

Hi gauravroondhe2306,
According to your description, you fail to install SQL Server 2008 R2 express with the error that SQL Server Browser service group does not exist. Please help to post SQL Server setup error log for analysis. By default, SQL Server setup summary and detail
logs are located in C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Setup Bootstrap\Log.
Based on my research, this issue could occur when you install SQL Server on a Domain Controller, or the machine's name has been changed and the browser service group is named with the original machine's name.
To troubleshoot the issue, you could follow the solutions below.
1.Use SQL Server 2008 R2 Best Practice Analyzer to detect if SQL Server is installed on a domain controller. If SQL Server is installed on a domain controller, please demote your machine from being a domain controller and install the SQL Server again since
it is not recommended to install SQL Server on a domain controller.
2.Check if the name of local user group matches the machine's current name. If it doesn't match, please change the name of the local user group accordingly, and install SQL Server again. For more information about the process, please refer to the article:

1.        Question 3: How to install a 32-bit version of SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services on a computer that is running a 64-bit version of Windows?
Answer:
To install the 32-bit version of Reporting Services on a computer that is running the 64-bit version of IIS 6.0, we can follow these following steps:
1.       Uninstall the 64-bit version of Reporting Services.
Note: Side-by-side installations of 32-bit versions of Reporting Services and 64-bit versions of Reporting Services are not supported.
2.       Run the Dotnetfx64.exe file to manually install the .NET Framework.
The Dotnetfx64.exe file is in the Tools\redist\2.0 folder on the SQL Server 2005 Setup media. To download the Dotnetfx64.exe file, visit the following Microsoft Web site:
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=70186
3.       In IIS Manager, click Web Server Extensions.
4.       In the Details pane, right-click ASP.NET V2.0.50727, and then click Allow.
5.       Right-click Web Sites, and then click Properties.
6.       Click the ISAPI Filters tab.
7.       In the Filter Name column, click ASP.NET_2.0.50727, and then click Edit.
8.       Replace C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v2.0.50727\aspnet_filter.dll with C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\aspnet_filter.dll.
Note: The Aspnet_filter.dll file in the C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\ folder is a 32-bit version of the file.
9.       Click OK two times, and then close IIS Manager.
10.   At a command prompt, run the following command:
cscript %SystemDrive%\inetpub\AdminScripts\adsutil.vbs set w3svc/AppPools/Enable32bitAppOnWin64 1

Creating alias for Web access to SQL Server Reporting Services

Hello colleagues.
I have MS SQL Server 2012 with SQL Server Reporting Services in domain "domain.local". In the local network at the entrance via Web browser to "mdr.domain.local/Reports" get into Reports of SQL Server Reporting Services and it's work fine.
Necessary that the SQL Server Reporting Services could include via Web browser from alias "reports2.domain.local/Reports". To do this:
1) I created a new A record "reports2" in the DNS leading to IP mdr.domain.local
2) in Reporting Services Configuration Manager on a tab "Web Service URL" in "Report Server Web Service URLs" I add new record "http://reports2:80/ReportServer" (host Header Name: reports2)
BUT "reports2.domain.local/Reports" is not work. When entering to "reports2.domain.local/Reports" I see page "An error in the security certificate for this Web Site..." and when I click "Continue to ...", then "Unable
to find a web page."
What and where I must add/change for work of alias "reports2.domain.local/Reports" by analogy with "mdr.domain.local/Reports"?
I hope for your help.
Thanks.

WooW it's work!!! Thank you
JJordheim you are the best!
With my PKI I create new certificate for "reports2.domain.local" and Import it to MDR server (in Personal). I create new network adapter and configure Reporting Services Configuration on "Report manager URL" tab (for SSL):
mdr.domain.local - certificate "mdr.domain.local" - network adapter №1
reports2.domain.local - certificate "reports2.sygroup.local" - network adapter №2
And all work fine.
If I configure all to 1 network adapter it's doesn't work.
Thanks for help!

Creating OLAP report with Crystal Reports and SQL Server Analysis Services 2005

Post Author: orahc_mao
CA Forum: Data Connectivity and SQL
Hi!
I am currently using the trial version of the Crystal Reports XI and I wanted to do an OLAP report. The problem is I cannot select a cube using "OLAP Connection Browser" (the popup window). I already selected Microsoft OLE DB Provider and entered the server name but still can't connect.
I don't think the problem is with SQL Server Analysis Services (2005) since Microsoft Excel - Import Data can detect the server as well as the cube I have created.
I also tried the "Database Expert" of Crystal Reports, created an OLE DB (ADO) connection with "OLE DB Provider for OLAP Services 8.0" driver, entered the server name, checked the integrated security and then I can readily select the database created at SQL Server Analysis Services. However, I still need the OLAP grid create the report but it goes back to my original problem... selecting a cube.
I hope somebody would help me with this issue.
Thanks a lot!
orahc_mao

Hello,
I don't recognize those variables as CR ones so it's likely something the original developer is setting in code.
You'll have to discuss with that person.
If your have SDK issues then post your question to one of the .NET or Java SDK forums.
Thank you

SharePoint - Web Part - SQL Server Reporting Services Report Viewer Error.

Hi,
I was just having a bit of a fiddle with the differen't web-parts available to add on our local SharePoint site, and as one of my tasks is to have a report automatically open when the page is opened i thought i would try to add the web-part 'SQL Server Reporting
Services Report Viewer' just to see the outcome.
Now, I don't much care about viewing the report at this time, but imediately after trying to add the web part i am being displayed with an error and no matter how much i navigate away from the page or close the browser the particular link to the page i was
trying to insert the web-part into now displays an error.
The error simply says 'An unexpsected error has occured' with various 'Correlation ID:' each time.
Now i have a link to other parts or subsites of that SharePoint site and they work just fine, it's just when i try to click on the page where i wanted to put the web-part in it
still comes up with an error. This page just so happens to be the home page so it really does need to be fixed.
Please help!?
Many Thanks,
Plain_Clueless

Hi again,
Sorry for the bother, We have now fixed the issue for the time being.. all that was needed was a simple '?contents=1' at the end of the url which takes you to a menu where you can delete the
necessary web-part that was causing the trouble.
As for actually implementing the report onto SharePoint.. in future i will make Dev pages instead.. and it seems i may need to contact the admin side of building so they configure 'SQL Reporting
Services Report Viewer' properly.
Thanks a lot though!

SQL Server Browser

I am installing SQL Server 2012.
At the "Server Configuration" point, "SQL Server Browser" greyed out, and set to "NT AUTHORITY\LOCAL SERVICE"
Will I be able to amend the SQL Server Browser to use an different account after install ?
(using Sql Server Config Manager for example ?)
Thanks in advance
Pete

Yes any time you can configure...
Default Account
Setup configures SQL Server Browser to use the account selected for services during setup. Other possible accounts include the following:
Any domain\local account
The local service account
The local system account (not recommended as has unnecessary privileges)

SharePoint 2013 SQL Server Reporting Services Report Viewer (Web Part) - IE Tab Title

Hi,
We are using a wiki Library to create page with SQL Server Reporting Services Report Viewer Web Part.
Everything is working great except for the Internet Explorer tab, instead of giving me the name of the Report it is showing the name of the web application. All the other wiki pages is working fine.
Regards,
Social Technet Microsoft.

Hi Brysk,
Is there any difference between the problemaitc page containing the webpart and other working wiki pages for showing the title name in IE tab?
The IE tab should show the information in tag<title> of the page, please check if it is correct for that page (using F12).
Also check if it is related to IE browser compatibility issue.
Thanks

QSUF (Query string url filter) and SQL Server reporting services report viewer parameters

Hi,
this is my issue:
I have a SQL Server reporting services web part on a page with a report with 1 parameter, lets say it's a client list
Then i have a QSUF that will be used to filter the clients list through the URL
However, once i connect the filter and the report viewer web part, the parameter goes away and is no longer accessible
I'd like to somehow keep the parameter visible, in case there is no parameter sent through the URL, i would like the user to be able to choose a client from the parameter drop down list
I saw that there is a "send empty if no values are passed" option, but i can't seem to get this working properly and i don't know if this option will make the parameter visible again
Any help would be appreciated
Thanks.

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that the query string url filter web part not worked well with SQL server reproting services web part.
Did you use the Wiki page layout in your environment?
You can change the page to a web part page, then check whether it work.
There is a similar thread for your reference.

Unable to start SQL server agent service

hi,
We have 2 Node SQL Cluster that was working fine. Then We migrated the Linux DNS to Windows DNS successfully.Now restarted the SQL Server after it when we try to start the SQL Server Agent service its says the below msg while machine name and cluster
entries are in windows dns and resolving the IP to name and name to IP
Error msg: The MSSQLSERVER service on Local Computer started and then stopped. Some services stop automatically if they have no work to do, for example, the Performance Logs and Alerts service." error message.
But whenever we set the Linux DNS Server ip in SQL Servers then it successfully starts the service. Now i want to know why its happening and what are the requirements or DNS entries/SPN which we missing when we migrated the linux DNS to windows
dns
Sagar

I was experiencing this issue or one just like it on one of our SQL clusters (SQL Server 2008 R2, two node).
The fix for us was the database Security Login for: NT SERVICE\SQLAgent$<instancename> was missing. The actual service account assigned to the SQL Agent service was a valid domain account and we had the credentials correct in the service
configuration, so no changes were needed there.
Using SQL Server Management Studio we manually added this BUILT IN account ( NT SERVICE\SQLAgent$<instancename> ) to the instance, and then assigned it user role = sysadmin (to go along with the default role = public).
Once this was done, we tried to restart the clustered SQL Agent service and it started and remained started.
Hope this helps someone, we spent over a day pouring over the installation trying to find the cause.
This worked for me, thanks:-)

Unable to insert sql server reporting services report viewer webpart

Hello,
We are trying to add a SQL Server Reporting Services Report Viewer and when we click add we get the following error message
The file you imported is not valid. Verify that the file is a Web Part description file (*.webpart or *.dwp) and that it contains well-formed XML.
Does anyone know what the fix to this is?

Hi，
The Report Viewer Web Part is a custom Web Part that is installed by the Reporting Services Add-in for SharePoint Products and associated with report definition (.rdl) files that are processed by a Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services report
server.
To install the Web Part, you must run Setup for the Reporting Services Add-in. You should not install or uninstall the Web Part independently. It is part of the add-in and can only be installed through the add-in setup package. The Report Viewer Web Part
file name is ReportViewer.dwp. It is located in the Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\15\template\features\reportserver folder and should not be moved to other folders.
To use the Web Part, you must have installed and configured the Reporting Services Add-in and configured the report server for SharePoint integration.
For more information,you can have a look at the blog:

[Forum FAQ] How do I create calculated measure using AMO in SQL Server Analysis Services?

Introduction
In SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS), you can create a calculated measure in SQL Server Data Tool (SSDT)/Boniness Integrated Development Studio (BIDS). Sometimes you may need to create calculated measure by using AMO in a C# or VB project.
In this article, I will demonstrate so how to create calculated measure using AMO in SSAS?
Prerequisites
Before create calculated measure using AMO, you need to ensure that the following components were installed in your server.
The multidimensional database AdventureWorks Multidimensional Model 2012
A SQL Server with SSIS and SSAS installed
The AMO libraries installed:
X86 Package (SQL_AS_AMO.msi)
X64 Package (SQL_AS_AMO.msi)
Solution
Here is the detail steps to create calculated measure using AMO in SSAS.
Open SSDT and create a new SSIS project.
Drag Script Task to the design surface.
Click SSIS-> Variables to open the Variables window and add two variables that used to connect to the server and database.
Create a connection to connect to SSAS server.
Rename the connection name to ssas.
Double click the Script Task to open Script Task Editor.
Add Connection and Database variables to ReadWriteVariables textbox and then click Edit Script button.
Add AMO reference in the Solution Explore window.
Copy the script below and paste it into the script.
Dim objServer As Server
Dim objDatabase As Database
Dim strDataBaseID As String
Dim objCube As Cube
Dim objMdxScript As MdxScript
Dim objCommand As Command
Dim strCommand As String
objServer = New Server
objServer.Connect("localhost")
objDatabase = objServer.Databases("AdventureWorksDW2012Multidimensional-EE2")
strDataBaseID = objDatabase.ID
If objDatabase.Cubes.Count > 0 Then
objCube = objDatabase.Cubes("Adventure Works")
If objCube.MdxScripts.Count > 0 Then
objMdxScript = objCube.MdxScripts("MdxScript")
objMdxScript = objCube.MdxScripts(0)
Else
objCube.MdxScripts.Add("MdxScript", "MdxScript")
objMdxScript = objCube.MdxScripts("MdxScript")
End If
objCommand = New Command
strCommand = "CREATE MEMBER CURRENTCUBE.[Measures].[Multipy Measures By 3]"
strCommand = strCommand & " AS [Measures].[Internet Sales Amount] * 3, "
strCommand = strCommand & " VISIBLE = 1 ; "
objCommand.Text = strCommand
objMdxScript.Commands.Add(objCommand)
objMdxScript.Update()
objCube.Update()
End If
objServer.Disconnect()
Then you can run this SSIS package to create the calculated measure.
Applies to
Microsoft SQL Server 2005
Microsoft SQL Server 2008
Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2
Microsoft SQL Server 2012
Please click to vote if the post helps you. This can be beneficial to other community members reading the thread.

Thanks,
Is this a supported scenario, or does it use unsupported features?
For example, can we call exec [ReportServer].dbo.AddEvent @EventType='TimedSubscription', @EventData='b64ce7ec-d598-45cd-bbc2-ea202e0c129d'
in a supported way?
Thanks! Josh

How do I post to SQL Server Reporting services

Hi
I have been using MS forums for almost 20 years but in the current incarnation I find it utterly imnpossible to post to anywhere useful.
I have a serious issue I need to resolve with SQL Server reporting services but cannot find how to get this message posted because the options I get when trying to post in "FORUM CATEGORY" seem utterly unrelated to what I am doing.
What can I do?

SQL Server Reporting Services Configuration Error(Subscription)

I have just deployed a new project on the server and i can successfully run report from the BI Site; [Server Name]\Reports and no issue there. But when i try to create Subscription for the same report; I am trying File Share and it throws error as given
below. Do i have to configure anything for subscription in the Reporting Services Configuration Tool???
I also have few questions regarding Configuration;
What account should i use for the Deployed Data Source on the Server? A valid SQL Server Account I assume!!!
What account should i use for the Execution Account (For Unattended Operations) ? A valid Windows Account? or SQL Server account?
What account should i use for the File Share Subscription (Credentials used to access the file share:)? A Valid Windows Account with permission for that folder?
Here is the error I am getting in the log file..

Hi RP,
For your first issue "cannpt create subscriptions", after analyzing the error logs, it seems to be caused to the service account for the Reporting Services service does not have proper permissions to invoke the WIN32 API.
The SQL Server Reporting Services invokes the Win32 API to impersonate user's permissions to write files to shared folder or call COM+ components.
In this case, we can change the service account to a account has permissions to invoke the Win32 API to solve the issue. For example, we can change the account to be NetworkService or LocalSystem:
1. Backup the encryption key using Reporting Serivces Configuration Manager.
2. Change the service account using Reporting Serivces Configuration Manager.
3. Restore the encryptiong key using Reporting Serivces Configuration Manager.
For your others questions, please see the following inline reply:
--What account should i use for the Deployed Data Source on the Server? A valid SQL Server Account I assume!!!
The account should be a Windows account or the SQL Server account, that has read permissions in the source data base at least.
--What account should i use for the Execution Account (For Unattended Operations) ? A valid Windows Account? or SQL Server account?
The account must be a Windows user account. For best results, choose an account that has read permissions and network logon permissions to support connections to other computers. It must have read permissions on any external image or data file that you
want to use in a report. Do not specify a local account unless all report data sources and external images are stored on the report server computer. Use the account only for unattended report processing.
--What account should i use for the File Share Subscription (Credentials used to access the file share:)? A Valid Windows Account with permission for that folder?
You are right. It must be a Windows account, which has permissions to access and write files to the shared folder.
