Report Builder in integrated mode

Hi,

I have an installation with Reporting Services in integrated mode with WSS 3.0, with Reporting Services Add-in for SharePoint.

I have a document library in witch I added a data source to an SSAS database and a Report model on top of this. When I click Add a Report with Report Builder, the report builder opens, but it fails to connect to the model.

There is a dialog window "Select Site or Server "asking for a URL. I put in there http://localhost, but is not working. I am not able to connect to the report model.

I will appreciate any help on what could be the reason or how can I investigate this.

Thanks,

Dan

P.S.

I did the same scenario on the development environment it works from start, without any problems. But now on production ….

Hi Dan

Try using your machine name instead of http://localhost, ie. http://mymachine. There is a known issue with using "localhost" in Reporting Services in sharepoint.

If that does not work, make sure all your permissions are set correctly in sharepoint. Report Builder will only find models to which you have permission.

You can also double check that your model loads by clicking on its context menu in sharepoint and launching Report Builder from there instead of the new menu.

Also SQL SP2 will be available very soon. Please upgrade if you can since the SP2 contains all the latest Sharepoint improvements for Reporting Services.

Reporitng Services Web Service and Credentials

I have developed an asp.net, vb.net web app and have integrated reporting services. Right now I am using url access but am not to crazy about showing the parameters in the querystring. I am using a dynamic stored procedure to get client data. I would like to use the rs web service to programatically set the parameters and send them invisably to the web service. Since the web app is not using windows authentication I would like to pass the parameters using a hard coded account that has been set up with browse privilages in the report manager. Is it possible to hard code the credentials that are sent to the reporting service instead of the System.Net.CredentialsCache.DefaultCredentials? The report returns a bar graph which I am hoping to display on the page. Reading some posts about some problems returning images I might be posting some more questions.

Are there any good walkthroughs or code examples using reporting services web service other than MSDN's limited supply?

Thank you for your time!

- preisifigured out the first part

rs.Credentials = New System.Net.NetworkCredential("username", "password", "domain")

Now when i try and render my graph the image can't be found.|||this is not an answer to your question but infact a question to you. can you share with us about how far you have gotten in getting this RS thing to work. i mean i have created some reports which accept a couple of parameters. now i need to create a windows service that calls the reportservice everyday, and prints the report. which is a little similar to what you have done. xcept for the windows service part. so could you share some of your xperience ?

thanks.
