SSRS 2012 rendering issue/Enabling Anonymous access - Upgraded SSRS from SQL 2005 to SQL 2012.

Hi,
I just recently upgraded SQL 2005 SSRS to SQL 2012 SSRS. Everything is working great other than small issue.
Sounds like some authentication issue. SQL 2005 SSRS - IIS, we enabled anonymous access and we never had this problem. SQL 2012 SSRS /WIN 2008 R2 - I am not sure how to enable anonymous access.
If anyone can help me on this? I really appreciate your help.
Thanks,
Vel

Hi Vel,
According your description, you want to know how the enable anonymous access to SSRS 2012. Right?
In SSRS 2008 or later version, we are not using IIS any more. If we want to configure the authentication, we need to configure in RSReportServer.config. This file locate at:
<drive>:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSRS12.MSSQLSERVER\Reporting Services\ReportServer
However, in SSRS 2012, Anonymous authentication is not supported on report server. Please see:
Authentication with the Report Server
In this scenario, we need to custom an authentication type to achieve the "Anonymous" goal. Please refer to the link:
Configure Custom or Forms Authentication on the Report Server
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.

How to Enable Anonymous access to a SharePoint 2013 site e.g for specific site,list etc..

Hi All,
I'm working on an extranet and i would like users to be able to fill a form on the site.
Since i'm going to use sharepoint 2013 how can i configure sharepoint to use both anonymous access and windows authentication at the same time.
I know for sure it can be done but what can be allowed for anonymous access e.g specific list site etc..
I would need to make some area available as anonymous e.g a whole site as i would like to brand it a little to host the form.Any tips of who has configured similar would be appreciated

Hi Patrick,
Thanks for posting your query, Kindly follow the below mentioned steps to enable Anonymous access to a SharePoint 2013 site.

Enable anonymous access for Javascript Client Object Model

In SharePoint 2010 it was possible to use the Javascript Client Object Model with anonymous access enabled by removing "GetItems" from the ClientCallableSettings.AnonymousRestrictedTypes.
In SharePoint 2013 however, it seems that an extra security barrier has been implemented. Trying to use the Javascript Client Object Model results in the following message: "Access denied. You do not have permission to perform this action or access this
resource."
After this I went on to do a little research, and it appears that Javascript Client Object Model actually relies on the REST API (please correct me if I'm mistaken), and the REST API also doesn't seem to work as an anonymous user.
So I'm in the dark here. I can't imagine that SharePoint 2013 (so heavily relying on the client object model) can't be used with anonymous access. I've also found very little documentation on anonymous access in combination with SharePoint 2013.
So, how do I enable the Javascript Client Object Model to be used with anonymous access enabled?
P.S. Needless to say, my web application is enabled for anonymous access and so is my site collection.

There are really 4 things you need to do to enable anonymous access:
1. In web application level, enable anonymous.
2. In site collection level, make sure anonymous access Entire Website.
3. In Web level, set Full Permission Masks, till here, you're able to anonymously access REST APIs.
# Enable Anonymous access
$web = Get-SPWeb $url
if($web -ne $null)
Write-Host
Write-Host -ForegroundColor Yellow "Enabling Anonymous access on:" $web.Url
Write-Host
$web.AnonymousState = "On"
Write-Host -ForegroundColor Yellow "AnonymousState set to:" $web.AnonymousState
$web.AnonymousPermMask64 = "FullMask"
Write-Host -ForegroundColor Yellow "AnonymousPermMask64 set to:" $web.AnonymousPermMask64
$web.Update()
Write-Host
Below are the things to enable anonymous client object model APIs:
4. In web application level, Require Use Remote Interfaces Permission - uncheck it.
5. In web application level, Anonymous Restricted Types, remove all of them:
$app.ClientCallableSettings.AnonymousRestrictedTypes.RemoveAll()

IIS 6.0 and Tomcat 5.0.30, how to enable anonymous access?

Dear All,
Thanks to Adam Krouskop's great guide (2003) i got IIS 6 and Tomcat 5 working together using the isapi connector. But.... IIS won't give anonymous access to my Tomcat web-apps.
When i go to http://localhost/jsp-examples it pops up a login window, when I enter my administrator username and password it will log me on and everything works fine. But how do i enable anonymous access??
This might not be best place to post this question but I know there's people out here who know. Thanks in advance.
Greetings from Holland. T.

This is probably way too late to help you out but I just ran into the same problem with IIS 6.0. The thing that is missing from the connector instructions is that it does not tell you to add the DLL as a web service extension. Here is how to do that after adding the ISAPI filter:
1) In the IIS manager, right-click on Web Service Extensions. Choose "Add a new Web service extension...".
2) Type in a meaninful name for the extension, like "tomcat".
3) Click the "Add" button.
4) Type the full pathname for the isapi_redirect.dll file or click "Browse" button to find it.
5) Check the "Set extension status to Allowed" checkbox.
6) Click "OK" to add the new extension. Verify by clicking on Web Service Extensions folder and seeing the new one in the right-hand pane.
7) Now go ahead and restart IIS as in the original instructions.
Hope this helps someone in the future...

Upgrade Process from SQL 2005 to SQL 2012

Hi All,
I have gone thru multiple threads and would like to understand some steps in detail for me to upgrade SQL 2005 to SQL 2012.
Below is my understanding and questions around it, I would be setting up a new environment with OS 2007/2008 with SQL 2012:
Environment Readiness - Ensure new environment is ready with Win 2007/2008 with SQL 2012 Server
Run Upgrade Advisor on the new environment and point to SQL 2005 instance
Find the breaking/discontinued changes to be done before or After Upgrade
<Question>: Over here I would like to know what should be our approach to make the required changes
<Question>: Obviously I should not be making changes directly on the Production SQL 2005 server, then in that case should I take a backup/restore on the new SQL Server 2012 and then make the required changes to the database objects
like (Table schema(changing column names/datatypes etc.), Stored Procedure, Functions & Views)
<Question>: When I do a backup/restore I would also get the data along with it, so is this a recommended approach or should we only run/use the table schema creation scripts, fix the issues identified by UA and then do an Table to Table import,
any thoughts on this ?
<Question>: If I have to do a table to table Import then I should ensure there's a downtime during the Import or would I have any other better approach
So, basically my questions are around the approach of fixing the issues identified by UA and moving the database to SQL Server 2012 environment, I have around 300 databased to me upgraded.
Please do let me know what should be a good/proven approach ? Pl. do let me know if you would need any more details from me.
---Umesh

Thanks all for the replies.
I am trying summarize what I have understood here:
Document SQL Server 2005 environment details, Is there any tool which could give us all relevant details
I would take the backup from the SQL Server 2005 Production environment and then restore the same in a test environment which again has SQL Server 2005 and Run Upgrade Advisor on that
Probbaly run SQL Profiler as well to find out the deprecated changes to be done
I should fix all the breaking, discontinued changes on the Test system identified by UA
I should fix all the deprecated changes on the Test system identified by SQL Profiler
Steps 3 & 4 should give me the changed scripts for all database objects (i.e. Table Schema, Stored Procedures, Functions & Views)
<Question> Perform test, I understand this acitivity test can be captured by having SQL profiler running in the background on the SQL Server 2005 production environment where we can identify some days in a week or a month where maximum activity is
expected to ensure we cover most the scenarios, let me know is this approach looks fine or is there a better approach
Now, with regards to acutal upgrade I need to identify a time window where in less activity is done during which I could have a downtime for the actual SQL Server 2005 production environment
Post downtine, I should do a BackUp for all databases from SQL Server 2005 production environment
Test on environment readiness of SQL Server 2012 can be compared against the documentation done as part of the first Step
<Question> Ideally I should a restore first in the new environment which has SQL Server 2012
<Question> Then run the Scripted changes where we fixed all the breaking, discontinued & deprecated changes
<Question> Does above sequence of Step 9 & 10 make sense or is there a better approach of doing it
<Question> Post Upgrade and running of changed scripts, I should run the Upgrade Advisor again and see if everything looks fine
<Question> Perform test again which we ran on SQL Server 2005 Test environment
<Question> These steps should complete the Upgrade process.
Please do let me know if the above sequence look ok to all of you and does it really work in a practical scenario, do let me know your feedback or any change in sequence/process or any other tools that can be used here.
Thanks Again ...

I have a new Macbook pro and need to run some Windows software, it appears "Parallel" should work well from what I've have read. Will I have any issues or problems accessing and printing from various printers on my Windows 7 network within Parallel?

I have a new Macbook pro and need to run some Windows software, it appears "Parallel" should work well from what I've have read. Will I have any issues or problems accessing and printing from various printers on my Windows 7 network within Parallel? Is Parallel in fact the best way to go?

First, back up all data immediately, as your boot drive might be failing.
There are a few other possible causes of generalized slow performance that you can rule out easily.
Reset the System Management Controller.
If you have many image or video files on the Desktop with preview icons, move them to another folder.
If applicable, uncheck all boxes in the iCloud preference pane.
Disconnect all non-essential wired peripherals and remove aftermarket expansion cards, if any.
Check your keychains in Keychain Access for excessively duplicated items.
If you have more than one user account, you must be logged in as an administrator to carry out this step.
Launch the Console application in the same way you launched Activity Monitor. Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Select the 50 or so most recent entries in the log. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V). You're looking for entries at the end of the log, not at the beginning.
When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some personal information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting. That should be easy to do if your extract is not too long.

Conversion from SQL 2005 to SQL 2012 Express

Looking to move a small database from SQL 2005 to SQL 2012 Express - can a 2005 backup file be restored to a newly created 2012 Express database file?

Are you using 2005 express? Yes, you can do that
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms177429.aspx
Note that if you restore a SQL Server 2005 or SQL Server 2008 database to SQL Server 2012, the database is automatically
upgraded.
Also you
cannot
do a cross
edition restore i.e. from enterprise edition (2005) backup to 2012 express

SQL 2005 to SQL 2012 Replication for SSRS

I recently successfully implemented one-way log shipping from a production SQL 2005 database to a new SQL 2012 database in the hopes that I can use the 2012 database to run SSRS 2012 on it.
Unfortunately, the 2012 database is kept offline since log shipping between two DIFFERENT SQL versions can only be done in a NO RECOVERY mode. (Standby mode is NOT available which would make the SQL 2012 read only and therefore workable for SSRS
2012.)
Does anyone have any suggestions on if there is another method on how to achieve this?

Yes, You can try replication. I hope you've latest service pack upgrade for SQL 2005.

Logshipping from SQL 2005 to SQL 2012

I have a 2005 primary sql database (production-constantly updated). I would like to have (pseudo) real time copy in a secondary 2012 sql server instance. I want to run SSRS 2012 on this new secondary server. The end goal is to have users
access 2012 SSRS (uninterrupted) on the secondary server with a copy of "real-time" data from the primary 2005 server.
I plan to implement log shipping between the two servers. Do I have to restore using NO RECOVERY? I have read that I can not use STANDBY mode when restoring between 2005->2012. If so, is there a way to implement this without taking the
secondary sever offline?
Any other suggestions, on how to implement this?
Thanks.

Hi....
It should work for sure.. We have done exactly the same as you're proposing, log shipping from 2005 to 2012. Its always possible lower to higher but higher to lower is not possible.
Nothing will happen to SSRS.
Note : that we weren't using the SQL Server Log Shipping features, but our own custom scripts to do the backup/restore.

And would like to plan the migration to windows 2008, sql 2008 IE 7.0
I just wanted to get some feedback regarding if someone has already done this and how you all went about to upgrade? Issues you encountered, things to avoid, all that good stuff
Without doing much research yet, and having just completed the migration from 32bit OS to 64bit and sql 2000 to sql 2005, I had to perform a NEW install of SAP on parallel servers , export from 32bit and import to 64bit servers
When we upgrade to windows 2008 and sql 2008, will we ALSO require to do a NEW install of SAP? just like what I just finished?
Please advise?

Font Rendering issues in export to PDF-SSRS

Hi,
Its a very strange issue,I am facing from last two days.
I have created a report having text with Gill Sans MT font.I am able to see the text in the mentioned font properly on report server as well as on my development machine.
Issue occurs when I export the report to PDF, as when i open the report in acrobat reader to view the font of the rendered text,it shows the font as Gill#20Sans#20MT which causes the text rendering up in Arial(default font).
If I Export from Word document the font is set as GillSansMT i.e name without spaces and text is rendered in correct font.I have installed the required font on both the locations i.e. report server as well as Development environment.
Thanks & Regards,
AS

Hi Anand Sardesai,
Since the Gill Sans MT font is not been installed on the production server at first. Please make sure the font is installed correctly and that font embedding is granted font. If the referenced font is not installed on the report server, the resulting PDF
file might not contain the correct mappings and might not display correctly when viewed.
Reference:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms159713(SQL.100).aspx
Alternatively, I recommend you reboot the server try to resolve the issue. There is a similar issue for your reference:

TIME_OUT when accessing Oracle table from SAP using native SQL

Hi,
I have a problem in one of my native SQL statement. It takes a long time accessing the table considering that the number of records to be retrieved is only small.
Something happened on the Oracle system. But, stilll to be confirmed. Looking further at the issue, it seems that when the value in the where clause equated is a literal (meaning the value is not declared in DATA or CONSTANTS in the ABAP Program)
Example
1.
EXEC.
WHERE FIELD = '1'
ENDEXEC.
instead of
2.
CONSTANTS: c_1 value '1'.
EXEC.
WHERE FIELD = c_1
ENDEXEC.
i found that when the way of coding is same as Example 1, a time-out error occurs. But when in Example 2, no issue.
Can someone explain this?
Thanks!

Repetitively asking the same question again and again is against the forum rules.
Please post an explain of the SQL statement on the remote machine.

Issues in restoring ReportServer DB from SQL 2005 to SQL 2008 R2

Hello,
I am trying to upgrade reporting services for my project from SSRS 2005 to SSRS 2008 R2. I have already taken backup of ReportServer and ReportServerTempDB databases and the encryption keys in Reporting Services Configuration Manager.
The database is also restored successfully in SQL Server 2008 R2. Since reporting services was not installed in SQL Server 2008 R2, I have installed it separately and noticed that "Install but do not configure report server" was the only option
available during the installation process.
After this, when I open Reporting Services Configuration Manager to change the report server DB, and select the restored ReportServer DB, the report mode is showing as "unknown" instead of "Native". Due to this, I am unable to restore
SSRS.
It would be great if someone can guide me on what is missing and how it can be corrected.
Thanks,
Harshad ----------------------------------------------------------- Please mark as answer if the post helped you.

Hi HarshadR,
According to your description, your restored report server database can be recognized in Reporting Services Configuration Manager. Right?
In Reporting Services, for upgrading a report server database manually, we can just go to the Reporting Services Configuration Manager, open the Database tab, select a database, add click apply, report server will upgrade the report server schema automatically.
In this scenario, does it throw any error message when you apply the restored database as report server database? We suggest you drop the restored old version report server database and restore again, then apply it as report server database in SSRS 2008R2.

<application>
<application-config>

I want to be able to access the servlet over a URL like...
http://host:port/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/MyApp.MyComponent
I have added the Default User Group Everyone to the no_safety area of our com.ourDomain Security Zone.
However when try to navigate to the URL we are first faced with a SAP Portal login page. on successful login the servlet is then shown.
Note: I was able to get the Same Servlet working within an iView when the iViews Authentification Scheme was set to anonymous...However i am under instruction to get it working without the iView...
As Background, The servlet is to be a sink for accepting data sent via an HTTP Post.
Any help with this or pointers in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Darrell,
Thankyou for that, yes it has helped....And I can now access the servlet directly without need to login.
I figured that there was something that i was missing.....

Anonymous Access Sharepoint Foundation 2013

Is it possible to allow anonymous access in Sharepoint Foundation 2013? I've enabled anonymous access at the site level as well as via central administration but users are still prompted for login when browsing to the site anonymously. I'm
more curious if this is an issue with the Foundation version specifically at this point. Thanks.

Hi mtrosper,
Please disable anonymous access via the UI, then enable it using PowerShell, compare the result.
You can use the following PowerShell command to enable it:
$webApp = Get-SPWebApplication 'http://someurl:9999'
$webApp.IisSettings['Default'].AllowAnonymous=$false
$webApp.update()
More information, you can refer to the link:
