SharePoint Reporting Services Integration - System Settings Page Issue

Hi All,
A client of mine has setup Reporting Services (SQL Server 2012 SP1) integration on a SharePoint 2010 environment and this has been working fine for a while now. This includes viewing SSRS reports and also creating PowerView reports from the SharePoint interface.
The only issue that we have is when we browse to the SQL Reporting Services service application via SharePoint Central Administration and select 'System Settings' we receive an error and can't configure any of the settings located on this page.
Looking at the ULS logs I can see the following error is raised:
System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. at Microsoft.ReportingServices.SharePoint.SharedService.UI.ReportingServicesSystemSettings.InitStrings() at Microsoft.ReportingServices.SharePoint.SharedService.UI.ReportingServicesSystemSettings.OnInit(EventArgs
e) at System.Web.UI.Control.InitRecursive(Control namingContainer) at System.Web.UI.Page.ProcessRequestMain(Boolean includeStagesBeforeAsyncPoint, Boolean includeStagesAfterAsyncPoint)
43aaadcd-fc67-420e-a30f-2e174f151084
I removed the existing service application and uninstalled the SharePoint Services (using Install-SPRSService). I then reconfigured the RS services and created a new service application but the error is still raised. All other pages under the service application
can be loaded. We also tried setting the reporting services diagnostic logs to verbose but couldn't see any further information.
Has anybody seen this before? I'm thinking that perhaps some of the configuration settings for this page actually carry a null value when it should be configured with something. Does anybody know where these settings are saved?
Cheers,
Tom

Just thought I'd provide an update, we ended up resolving this, problem was related to an incorrect ID one one of the fields in ReportingServicesSystemSettings.aspx.
Updating this to the correct ID resolved the issue. Weird thing was that the file was incorrect on more than one server, only had to obviously update it on the CA server though. After this the System Settings page opened without any problems.

Automator for changing system settings?

Here's my issue: I have an external monitor connected to my 2010 Macbook Pro with OSX Snow Leopard. I do all my work when I'm at home on the larger monitor and use the other screen for iTunes. I use spaces alot, and so when using my external monitor, I put iTunes to open on all spaces so that it's always handy. When I go out with my laptop, I have to change the spaces settings back to iTunes only being open in one space.
It's not a big issue, but does anyone know how to use automator (or by any other means) to automatically change the system settings so that my computer can, on detecting I have an external monitor plugged in, change the spaces settings for iTunes? (and preferably back again when it doesn't have the external monitor plugged in).

Hi there :)
You can connect directly to the DB without a DSN like this:
url = "jdbc:odbc:Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};DBQ=<YOUR DB LOCATION HERE>;
try
Class.forName ("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver");
icuCon = DriverManager.getConnection (url);
catch (Exception e)
You will obviously replace <YOUR DB LOCATION HERE> with the location of your database for example you can set the url of the database like this:
url = "jdbc:odbc:Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};DBQ=" +
System.getProperty ("user.dir") + System.getProperty ("file.separator") +
"DBFolder" + System.getProperty ("file.separator") + "DB.mdb";

Hi lcerni,
According to your description, my understanding is that you could not access the system settings inside SQL Reporting service application.
There is a blog, the issue 3 is similar with your issue, please take a look at:

In addition, please check the log file to find more information about this issue based on the correlation ID. The path of the log file is: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\LOGS.

Delete Previous System Settings?

Ok, I posed this question in another Mac forum and they didn't seem to have an answer. Below are both of my posts, I clarified myself in the second one just in case the first one was a little confusing.
Ok, here's my situation. After I updated to OSX 10.4.8, my MBP started making the whine again, it has always done it even after getting the logic board replaced twice, albeit it's much softer than it was. Nevertheless, I'd taken care of the issue by using the PhotoBooth trick, but since all the the updates, I keep having to reinstall the IOUSB Family to keep the trick working. Anyway, after I updated OSX and the noise came back, I went to reinstall the old IOUSB and I installed the wrong one, so then my keyboard, trackpad, and mouse would not work anymore. I used the install disc and installed 10.4.6 but it kept my previous system and said that it would revert back to all previous settings when I updated the latest version of OSX. My question is, when I update to 10.4.8, will I my keyboard, trackpad, and mouse stop working because of my mistake with IOUSB, and if that's the case, can I just delete the "Previous Systems" folder before I update OSX?
I'm not sure that I fully explained myself in the first post. My computer is working fine right now, but when I did a restore to 10.4.6, it kept my previous system settings so that, when I update to 10.4.8, it will restore the settings I had the last time I had 10.4.8 installed. I'm concerned that it saved the USB information that wouldn't allow my keyboard, trackpad, and mouse to work.
There is a folder under "Macintosh HD" that say's "Previous Systems," if I were to delete that folder, would I eliminate a problematic update to 10.4.8, or would I create more problems for myself?

IL_Dem87:
If you elected to "Preserve User and Network Settings" when you did Archive and Install your Preferences will be saved along with your data, third party apps in the Applications folder and others (see linked article). If you do not care about your data you don't have to migrate it and can just delete the Previous Systems folder. You can then restore from your backup of your data.
Good luck.

RV220W System Time Issue in Combination with WiFi Active Time

Hi
Have system time issues with rv220w!
Setup:
Note that the real time is 17.32 (bottom right) but the system time is 16.20, result 1h offset (sad that the possibility to configure summertime start/end is missing)
Setting up the WiFi active time from 5.30PM until 6PM (testing only):
Note that the real time is 17.44, the WiFi is "Disabled". The RV220W system time is 16.44 with setting "CET +1h".
BUT:
Even when i change the RV220W system time to a Time/Date offset GMT +2h EET has this no issue to the WiFi time profile i set up. The WiFi stay down.
Note:
The WiFi Active Time Settings only working correct when the Clock Source is setting up with "Set Date and Time Manually" (in "Administration" "Time Settings"), but that is not the way.... i don't like to configure time settings manually (no system administrator will do that tinking)
Conclusion:
I think that the WiFi Time setting does not work fine, mean that the WiFi does not include the configured offset as usually system does....
Further:
RV220W firmware is up to date....
Hope Cisco will fix that and add the summer time feature (like in other systems and other manufacturer) in the next FW.....

I have a MacBook upgraded from Tiger 10.4 to *Snow Leopard OS X 10.6.1.* I'm now using *Time Machine* to make back-ups on a *MiniMax external drive* through an USB connection. However, I wish to make wireless back-ups by connecting the external drive to my *Airport Extreme*. I learned that this wasn't possible until the recent release by Apple of the software update "*About Time Machine and AirPort Updates v1.0*".
this has been possible for a long time, since about February 2008 when those updates came out.
The minimum system requirement for this software update is OS X 10.5.2. I should think this requirement is met because I have upgraded to 10.6.1. But when I try to install the software I get the message that the system requirement is at least 10.5.2. and as a result *I can't continue installing*. Apparently my OS update is not recognized by the software. Is there a solution for this problem? Many thanks.
you don't need to install those updates. they are for leopard, not snow leopard. you should be fine as is. do keep in mind that TM backups to air disks are not "officially" supported but they have worked for a long time. also, keep in midn that you'll need to start a new backup sequence once you move the drive to AEBS as remote backups are stored differently from directly attached ones.

[Solved] No printer setup module in KDE 4.1 System Settings

I have cups installed, and gutenprint, but I really don't know how to use them outside of the normal KDE 4.1 gui. However, when I invoke "System Settings" I see no printer setup module in either the General or the Advanced tabs. Any ideas what I might be missing?
I'm hoping to setup my Canon i560, which ran very nicely under Kubuntu 8.04.
Thanks!

Okay, here's how I worked around the issue...
a) I opened http://localhost.localdomain:631/printers/canoni560, which accesses the CUPS printer administration program in Firefox.
b) I chose a different driver by deleting the i560 printer and selecting "add printer," then selected the "Canon i560 - CUPS+Gutenprint v5.0.2" driver
c) Bingo. It worked.

Where to "Edit Your System Settings"?

The update tab of the portal page says:
Updates
From this page you can view all of the different types of updates available for your systems by ID, name, type, how many systems would be affected and by the date the update was released. If you want to view the current baseline, go to "Edit Your System Settings."
But I don't see an "Edit Your System Settings." option. What am I missing?
Cheers,

Hi Rich,
Thank you for pointing out this issue and posting the location (and path allowing) for Editting System Settings. A Change Request was filed and completed to resolve the issue of wording on the Updates Page.

Rescue and Recovery stalling when searching for system settings.

Being a project manager, I like to back up my laptop regularly. As such, having the Rescue and Recovery set up to do this automatically is a God send.....well that was before April 2010.
For some reason, when I start the Backup routine, it brings up the window that shows the progress and then another pop-up over that indicates that the program is looking for system settings. And that is where it stays. The only way I am able to cancel out of it is to shut down the computer.
I have a T500 laptop running XP SP3, ThinkVantage 6 and Rescue and Recovery 4.
I have an external hard drive which I have used for a number of months for this type of backup. It stopped working after an update of the ThinkVantage software. Sorry, can't tell you which update but it would have taken place between April 12 and May 12.
Has anyone had the same issue and can someone please help.
Pete

Hi,
although I have not seen this situation in the last time, but can you tell me, whether the USB HDD is the only place/store location, where you are storing the RnR backups?
In case you are storing the backups also on the local HDD, then please disconnect the USB HDD and try to store the backup only on the local HDD, whether this will work.
Please also try to check the Windows Event log, whether you will see there any note about RnR, or start debugview whether it will notice anythign. Also another thought press ALT+TAB if it is not possible, that there is some background window open.
Cheers

Remote Desktop Settings missing from Remote Tab of System Settings

My Screen:
What it should be:
Good day, all. Please I need urgent help here. I have a problem using Remote Desktop.
My system is a 64-bit Windows 7 Ultimate with SP1 preinstalled.
Let me give us a synopsis of the problem.
Since the system was purchased, I have never had to remote into it. But I have used it to remote desktop to other PCs (that is, I have never used
it has a host, only as a client). However, last week I decided to set it up so that I can remotely connect to it. I went to the Remote Tab in System settings, and I discovered the bottom half was missing - only Remote Invitation settings were displayed.
I searched the web to try to solve the problem myself. I could only come up with 2 causes, generally:
If the system is Home Premium or below, which is certainly not the case here. It is the Ultimate version I have.
Some people complained that they had the exactly the same problem after installing SP1, and that when they uninstalled it, the Remote Desktop settings in Remote Tab of System settings came back.
However, I can't uninstall SP1 since it came preinstalled, and then that is not an option for me, given it contains several security fixes and updates.
Also some people said
the problem was solved be re-entering a correct product key for Windows, and re-activating Windows (+reboot).
I have tried this but did not get the required help.
My system is fully updated with all Microsoft patches till date, which means I have RDP 8.0 and RDP 8.1 client installed.
I have also tried
re-registering the dll: (regsvr32 c:\windows\system32\remotepg.dll),
to no avail.
I have checked the registry settings, Windows Firewall and made sure the remote desktop services are running in services.msc.
All these I have tried.
As I said, I have no problem connecting as a client to other systems. The issue is connecting to this system, by setting RDP here, but the settings
are missing.
Please, what is the solution? I don't want a clean install, or anything that would require to start re-updating the system.
I prefer a direct tackle of this error
(Definitely, a windows component is corrupted).
Thank you very much, and God bless.
P.S: I have read ALL the other threads that are similar to this, but NONE of them has SOLVED my problem.
So, please, please, do not delete my thread or mark it as answered until this problem has been solved, please.
I need a WORKING SOLUTION to this please.
Once again, thanks and God bless.

Hi,
Let’s uninstall the RDP 8.0 first, then check the result:
wusa.exe /uninstall /kb: 2592687
It would roll back to RDP 7.0.
Also, run SFC command:
Use the System File Checker tool to repair missing or corrupted system files

How?

System Settings-Audio Capture

In FCE, trying to capture VHS via DV converter box. The sound is not coming over. In system settings/scratch disk (internal hard drive) the audio capture is grayed out. Analog RCA composite video & stereo audio connectors in place. How do I get my sound?

You can't get audio during capture as firewire has control.
Use the audio from the play device if you need to hear what's happening. You will notice latency on the FCE capture window, that's normal as well.

Is there a way to default scratch disks in system settings?

This might be elementary, but is there a way to default the scratch disks in system settings to match the project that you are currently working on?
What I mean is when I switch from project to project my auto save files get all jumbled up.. then when I really needed to retrieve one I had to search them out in folders from different projects.... it was a mess
So as I have it now.. I have to open a project then go to system settings and switch all my scratch disks accordingly.. but I always forget to do this not to mention that it is a pain in the *** and time consuming..
Thanks in advance if you can help

I just create one master file for all my FCP projects inside it there is the autosave folder, thumbnail and waveforme cache folders.. then inside each one FCP automatically creates a seperate folder with your projects name.. so you can find them easily
