SSRS 2008 R2:Export to excel error

Hello,
I have a report which has 28 columns, one expression for generating alternate row colors, 2 images in the page header. Users are able to render the report in report manager url with in 20 seconds but they are unable to export the report to excel even with
a data of just 7000 rows.We are getting the following error: Internet explorer cannot download YearToDate report The connection with the server was reset. We are currently using sql server 2008 r2 10.50.2500. I have modified database connection
timeout to 900 ,httpRuntimeexecutionTimeout="9000", maxRequestLength="102400" , iis connection timeout is 900 sec. We found that If we subscribe the report as email in excel format then we are getting the report but users requirement
is export to excel from report manager only.
Please Help !!
Thanks a lot in advance.

Hi Satyadevs,
If I understand correctly, when you try to export a report to excel on Report Manager, you have received the error message. And when you examine the Report Server log, the log indicates that the export request was fulfilled.
The following KB is about a similar issue: FIX: Error message when you try to export a SQL Server 2008 Reporting Services report by using Report Manager: "Internet Explorer cannot download <ReportName>.xls
from <URL>"
In Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Reporting Services, when you try to export a report by using Report Manager, you receive the following error message:
Internet Explorer cannot download ReportName.xls from URL.
The connection with the server was reset.
However, when you examine the Report Server log, the log indicates that the export request was fulfilled.
The fix for this issue was first released in Cumulative Update 2. Because the builds are cumulative, each new fix release contains all the hotfixes and all the security fixes that were included with the previous SQL Server 2008 fix release. We recommend
that you consider applying the most recent fix release that contains this hotfix:
Cumulative update package 10 for SQL Server 2008
Hope this helps.
Thanks,

Export to Excel Error in SQL Server 2014 Report Builder/Viewer

Hi,
I am using the 2014 version of ReportViewer in a WinForm to display an RDL report.
The report was originally created in Report Builder 2.0 (SQL 2008 R2), but has since been edited in Report Builder 3.0 (SQL 2014).
The report loads and displays OK, and even exports to Word and PDF. But when exporting to Excel and then opening the Excel document, the following error occurs:
"We found a problem with some content in <filename>. Do you want us to try and recover as much as we can? If you trust the source of this workbook, click Yes."
If you click Yes, then a second message appears:
"Removed Part: /xl/styles.xml part. (Styles)
Repaired Records: Cell information from /xl/worksheets/sheet1.xml part"
The Excel document then opens, and the data is there, but there is no formatting (no border columns, colours, bolds etc.)
The three interesting things are:
- When exported from SQL 2008 R2 Report Builder 3.0, which exports to .xsl instead of .xslx, it works
- A brand new report created in 2014 Report Builder 3.0 exports to .xslx great
- In Report Builder 2014, I stripped everything back and removed all rows and columns so the original table in the report only has one empty row and column it the export still errors - it is only by removing the original table and creating a brand new table
that export works OK
It appears to be a problem with the tablix, but ideally we don't want to have to recreate our reports from scratch to fix this issue.
Has anyone come across an issue like this before, and know of any potential resolutions to it?
Thank you.

Hello,
Based on your description, you render a report originally created in Report Builder 2.0 (SQL 2008 R2) and export the report to excel with format of Excel 2007-2010.
Edit the report in Report Builder will not upgrader the report. In that case the report still with SSRS 2008 R2 RDL schema. Please try to upgrade the report by open the report in Report Designer in SQL Server Data Tools (SSDT) and then try again.
If you don’t want to upgrade the report, please try to export the report
with Excel 2003 rendering extension and check if the issue persists.
The SQL Server 2014 and SQL Server 2012 Reporting Services Excel rendering extension renders a report to the native format of Microsoft Excel 2007-2010 with .xlsx as file extension. Only the Excel rendering extension is available by default.
You must update the Reporting Services configuration files to make the Excel 2003 rendering extension available.
For example, changing the value of Visible to
true in the following line in the RSReportServer.config:
<Extension Name="EXCEL" Type="Microsoft.ReportingServices.Rendering.ExcelRenderer.ExcelRenderer,Microsoft.ReportingServices.ExcelRendering"
Visible="true"/>

SQL 2008 R2 Export to Excel 2007

I want to export data using the Import and Export Utility to Excel 2007.
I choose a destination of Microsoft Excel and choose an existing (empty) Excel 2007 .xlsx file.
The following errors result. A new worksheet is created in the Excel file with the name of the table and with column headings but no data. If I repeat the export choosing the now existing Excel file it works fine.
How can I make it work the first time?

Thanks for your reply.
I think the datatypes are correct.
This is the sql for the SQL 2008 table:
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[q_table](
[Q_No] [nvarchar](40) NOT NULL,
[data1] [nvarchar](255) NULL,
[data2] [nvarchar](255) NULL
) ON [PRIMARY]
This is the sql for the Excel table create.
CREATE TABLE `q_table` (
`Q_No` LongText,
`data1` LongText,
`data2` LongText
There is only one row in the table:
Q_No data1
data2
2 444 aaa
The same export works fine if I select .xls (Excel 1997-2003). This error happens with every table I try to export to .xlsx. I created this table and export to try to debug the issue.
We do this sort of export all the time and I want to use 2007 becuase we often have more than 65K rows to export. Now we export to Access and then export to Excel but it adds time to the job.

Ssrs 2008 r2 export to csv file problem

In an SSRS 2008 R2 report, the users are going to export the data to: csv (comma delimited) and excel.
I am using the following to display if a column is visible or not:
=IIF(Mid(Globals!RenderFormat.Name,1,5)="EXCEL" AND First(Len(Fields!CustomerNumber.Value)) > 0,False,true).
I have set the DataElementOutput=Output for the textbox that displays the value. I have left DataElementOutput=Auto for the textbox that contains the column header.
When exporting to csv (comma delimited) or excel, I basically want the column to be visible when there is data in the field and the column not to be visible when there is no data.
The code works for excel but the code does not work for comma delimited.
Thus can you tell me what I can do so the column is not disaplyed when the data is exported to csv (comma delimited)?

I don't think what you are trying to do is supported in .CSV files as it only saves text and values. See the following article:
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/help/excel-formatting-and-features-that-are-not-transferred-to-other-file-formats-HP010014105.aspx
If you open a .CSV file using excel you can use formulas, but if you try and save it, it will not allow you to. I assume this is what you are trying to do.

SSRS 2008 R2 SharePoint 2010 integration error?

Hi, I have SSRS 2008 R2 in SharePoint 2010 integration mode. I'm getting kind of strange error with below scenario:
1) SSRS report has data-source to SQL Server 2008 R2 database store procedure.
2) SQL Server procedure execute SELECT query using linked server to Oracle database (Oracle driver).
3) SSRS report has parameter call 'Customer' which allows user to filter the data. This customer report parameter drop-down is also get execute SQL store procedure and get data from Oracle linked server.
Oracle database <---------> SQL Server 2008 R2 (SQL procedure & linked server to Ora) <-----> SharePoint SSRS Report
Problem : When user select one customer from parameter drop-down and click 'Apply' to render report it works. But if user change report parameter then it got error. This error is relate to can't execute main SQL procedure Oracle package to linked server.
Not sure why this happening when user select new parameter value and got this error? Interesting enough, I replicate scenario using Visual Studio 2008 and run report with different values by selecting customer parameter and it works perfectly fine! Not sure
why it doesn't work on SSRS report on SharePoint? FYI - all properties to SQL linked server and report data-source are set to default values.
Any idea? like SharePoint do some-sort of caching report data-source or any other hints where things going wrong? Thanks.

Hi KM,
Thanks for your post.
It seems a little strange. Do you mean the reports is working fine with parameter change behavior in report design tool(Visual Studio 2008), however, when you publish this report from design tool to Reporting services SharePoint site, it works with only
default parameter values, once you change the parameter value, you would encounte the error “can't execute main SQL procedure Oracle package to linked server”? If so, I would suggest you to create a SQL Agent job on your SQL Server engine to timely synchronous
data from Oracle database to SQL Server Database, and then you can create report to retrieve the relevant data from SQL Server table objects.
Thanks,

Crystal Report Export To Excel Error: "Error detected by Export DDL"

I have a windows application in .Net 2003, whenever i export the crystal report on my development machine or other windows xp machines it runs smoothly, but when i deploy the application on client's machine having windows vista installed, it displays error of "Error in file........., Error detected by export DLL"
pls help me.

First thing to look at is the wiki [What versions of Crystal Reports are supported on Windows Vista in VS .NET?|https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=64259646].
Note that CR 9.1 is not supported on Vista. And if CR 9.1 is not supported on Vista, any earlier version of CR will also not be supported on Vista. That is not to say the app(s) will not work, they may - or not. You never know... and we have no experience with these types of installs as we don't need to have it.
Next, have a look at KBase [1205312 - "Error detected by export DLL" while exporting to Excel after applying SP2 on Windows 2003 Server|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/oss_notes_boj/sdn_oss_boj_bi/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/scn_bosap/notes%7B6163636573733d36393736354636443646363436353344333933393338323636393736354637333631373036453646373436353733354636453735364436323635373233443330333033303331333233303335333333313332%7D.do]. Not exactly the same OS, but I'd follow through on the suggestions in that KB anyhow.
Finally, If this app works on a Vista box when a VB 6 app is not installed, compare the dlls loaded between that box and the one that has both apps. Use [Modules|https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100006252802008E/modules.zip] to do that.
Other than that, only suggestion I have is to upgrade to a version of CR that does support Vista.

Export to excel error - NOT windows 2003 server

hello everyone, I'm facing this kind of prblem: exporting to excel gives an error. no error when exporting in pdf or rtf. I read a number of threads on the matter: a hotfix was released to solve the problem on windows2003 server, which is not the case here. The used system is winxp sp3. I've also read that goig back to a sp2 might solve the problem, but that's certainly not an option. Anybody has any idea?
using:
windows xp sp3
.net framework 2
crystal report XI (not embedded)
visual c# 2005
thanks in advance

With .NET 2005, you have to move on to CR XI r2 (11.5). No sense continuing with CR 11.0. As you already have CR 11.0, you can download CR XI r2 for free from here:
https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100006008462008E/crxir2.zip
Uninstall CR 11.0 before installing CR 11.5. Use your CR 11.0 keycode when installing CR 11.5.
Once you have CR 11.5 installed, check the version. I want you to be at 11.5.1838 (I am not sure of the exact SP that is in the download). If you are at a lower version, apply SP 6 from here:
https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100015859952009E/crxir2win_sp6.exe
The references in you r.NET project should be 11.5.3700.0. See how things go in your app once you are at CR 11.5.
As an FYI.; Sp 6 runtime;

MSS Report Export to excel - ERROR - load: class query not found

Hi All,
I am navigating and getting error as follows:
Manger Services ->My reports -> Report Selection -> HIS Reports -> General -> Employee Details -> add some people and click start report -> report shows -> click local file -> save as spreadsheet get ERROR - load: class query not found in the status bar or IE and IE then locks up
Please reply if any one has some clue.
Thanks & Regards,
Vishal

Hey Vishal,
This issue gave us a very hard time. The query was HRIS manager. when you add some attributes to be exported to excel and then select export. It hangs there. or hangs at the step where you select save as spreadsheet, OR after it where it runs a query to export.
I came to know that Java JRE is used in the last step. So for solving this issue, go to java.com, on the first screen there will be big link to install java(i guess JRE). install it and then try exporting your query. I am sure it will work.
Just notice that after doing installation of Java you will get coffee cup in you system tray.
Thanks.
Ankur.
P.S. Points if works.

Export to excel : Error no class found

Hello Experts,
I am facing a problem while exporting the data into excel sheet.
DC1 : i have created library dc which contains jxl.jar file in library folder
DC2 : j2ee library DC--->DC1 is the used dc in this and DC2 build and deployed successfully
DC3 : webdynpro dc -->DC1 and DC2s are used DC (checked build time and runtime)
error :
The initial exception that caused the request to fail, was:
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: jxl/format/CellFormat
at com.pasteur.sku.global.wd.app.wdp.InternalVTab_Bord_SKU.<init>(InternalVTab_Bord_SKU.java:462)

Both DC2 and DC3 s are successfully build and deployed
How to confirm that the jar file is exist in j2ee library by using visual admin
please help me out to fix the issue
Thanks in advance for your reply.
Regards,
Fayaz Shaik.

Then, its because at runtime when the application tried to look for the external api containing the excel methods then it does not find the jar on the server.
The compiler works as the IDE is able to locate it within its folders.
Check the deploy DC. Build a separate DC and try it. Check if the necessary references(if any any) are configured. - No direct solution, just Plain Old, keep doing it again and again till you find the actual issue.
All the best.

IR Export To Excel error

We have an IR in Apex 4.1 which contains 99 report columns, and 1000+ rows.
The IR displays correctly on the screen, and when we try and Download to CSV it works ok (we get all columns and rows).
But when we try and Download to Excel we get;
ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small
If i reduce the number of columns to 40 or less the Download works ok. It appears there is limit in either number of columns or row size but i can't find a definitive answer anywhere.
Anyone shed any light on this?
TIA

Hi,
You have created icons alright but from the code i see that you haven't called any function to execute the action.. I am not sure whether WAD 3.5 has these preconfigured icons where you can just drag and drop these functionalities... I guess you have to call these functions..
Generally when a 'Submit' button is clicked in a web page it calls a program (Ex submit.asp or submit.aspx) in the background where the given details is submitted to a database...
