Can't see reportserver and reports applications

I'm trying to use Reporting Services 2005. The service is running, but if I
type http://192.168.1.49:8888/reportserver I see the directory list.
With http://192.1681.49:8888/reports, I see an error: The request failed
with HTTP status 503: Service Unavailable.The error is in URL.
http://192.168.1.49:8888/reports/Pages/Folder.aspx, so at least I know is
inside the application.
I'm completely stuck. What can I do or where can I search?

Regards,
Diego F.Google is your friend. Type in "reporting services" 503 "service
unavailable" and you'll get quite a lot of info. Not all of it is directly
connected to Reporting Services, but you should be able to pick up some info
on the 503 problem in general. It seems that there's a problem with the
Reporting Services web service.
Are you allowed to log on to the actual server and try running Report
Manager from that box?
What sort of authentication is set?
Try adding the report server site to your Trusted sites in IE, and then
change the Security Settings for Trusted Sites to "Prompt for user name and
password" in User Authentication - Logon. Type in your username and
password. If it fails, that might be what causes the problem. In that case,
you need to figure out what rights are needed for you to access the reports.

I installed again the whole server: Window 2003 and SQL Server 2005 full.
Now I finally see the reports site :-)
There is a Visual Studio installed with SQL 2005 and I can design reports
there. But now I don't know how to configure the project to deploy
correctly.
I get that error:
A connection could not be made to the report server http://localhost/reports
Additional information:
The attempt to connect to the report server failed. Check your connection
information and the report server is a compatible version.
(Microsoft.ReportingServices.Designer).
If I try with: http://localhost/reportserver then I get a compilation error:
The Report Server Windows Service ReportServer is not running. The service
must be running to use the Report Server.
How can I solve that?

Open your Reports site, is probably under Web SItes - Default Web Site.
RIght click and choose Browse. Does it open correctly?
If it does, what is the URL? I did a test install of the 2005 edition, and I
think you might get some extra "name" or something, like
http://localhost/reports$instancename
Which means that the reports are still there, but the URL might have
changed. Or something.
Also, with Sql Server 2005 there's an nice Reporting Services configuration
tool. Start it and look to see if there are any things that needs to be
started.

Then, as I asked you before, is the idea to create all the reports I need
and upload to the server?
My idea is to intergate that in a web application, so I expected to show
just the report by clicking a button. Is that possible?
And last but not least ;-), is it possible to dinamically -by code- generate
the reports temporally? I have all my queries as stored procedures.
Thanks a lot!

1. URL Integration
2. Web Services
3. Visual Studio 2005 Reporting Control
The reporting control has a local mode, you get it a datatable and a report.
I suggest you back up and learn how to create reports before you deal with
integration. There is a lot more that you have to do in local mode.
Normal function is to create a report and deploy it. Make sure it works from
the shipping portal (Report Manager web site).
Have your queries as stored procedures is great. No reason to create the RDL
on the fly. Just pass parameters to the report and use your stored
procedure.

- Create your reports locally, deploy to the server.
- When it comes to webapplications, you can either link directly to each
report, with parameters and everything else, or you can create an iFrame and
make the Report Manager show up inside. (Look for tips on integrating with
SharePoint, even if you're not using SharePoint, as you can use some of the
info in your web app.)
http://blogs.spipp.net/kaisa/archive/2005/09/27/1185.aspx
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/sql/2000/maintain/webrssp2.mspx
The beauty of using an iFrame against Report Manager, is that Report Manager
will still deal with authentication for the different reports.
- Make sure to test your reports with user accounts with less priveleges
than yourself, before allowing your users to try them out. SOmetimes setting
the rights values in the datasource can be a bit tricky.

integrates easily with my application.
I tried with a test server I installed just to make tests with that. The
only problem I met is that I have to put user and password, but I hope that
doing from the same domain avoids that.
Anyway, it's a lot of work to manually create each report from a whole
application.

Can't run LDAP Query From Remote Machine

Hi all,
I have a SQL 2005 server with a linked server which points to our
active directory. I am able to query the active directory from the
local machine when RDC'ed into the server, but when I run the query
from a remote machine using Management Studio, I get this error:
Msg 7320, Level 16, State 2, Line 1
Cannot execute the query "SELECT *
FROM 'LDAP://prudc/DC=<domain>,DC=com'
" against OLE DB provider "ADSDSOObject" for linked server "ADSI".
The query is:
SELECT *
FROM OPENQUERY( ADSI,
'SELECT *
FROM ''LDAP://prudc/DC=<domain>,DC=com''
'
)
(note I replaced our domain name with <domain> in the above query and
error message)
This issue isn't specific to the above query as I've tried many ldap
queries and they have all worked on the local machine but failed on the
remote machine.
I'm completely stomped on this and would greatly appreciate any help I
can get.
ThanksHi Jim
This was a previous post when someone had the same error
http://tinyurl.com/pjg7s I am not sure how much use it will be!
If the query works on the server then I would expect it to be ok, which
probably leaves permission/access as the main issue. Can you use VB script to
query the AD e.g. using the scripts from http://www.rlmueller.net/?

>|||Thanks for the help but unfortunately, I've already looked at that post
and the issue is a bit different.
The issue I'm having seems to have something to do with running a query
from a remote machine. So if I run a query on our SQL Server box from
my local desktop machine, I get the error. Running the query directly
on the SQL Server box while RDCed into the machine works flawlessly.
I did try to run a .vbs script from my machine which was able to query
the active directory...thanks for the link =). This leads me to
believe that it has something to do with SQL server security
restricting queries run from remote machines. I ran the surface area
configuration utility and didn't really see anything that jumped out at
me...
Anyone have any ideas?|||Alright, I've figured out a fix..
The AD linked server that I originally created was set to login to AD
with the credentials of the current security context. I changed this
to log in with a specified login and it worked fine. Whats strange is
that I set it to my own login account which I was using to run the
query remotely anyways. I guess SQL server queries ran remotely are
not run under the logged in users' security context after all?
Thanks for your help John =).

Can't run LDAP Query From Remote Machine

Hi all,
I have a SQL 2005 server with a linked server which points to our
active directory. I am able to query the active directory from the
local machine when RDC'ed into the server, but when I run the query
from a remote machine using Management Studio, I get this error:
Msg 7320, Level 16, State 2, Line 1
Cannot execute the query "SELECT *
FROM 'LDAP://prudc/DC=<domain>,DC=com'
" against OLE DB provider "ADSDSOObject" for linked server "ADSI".
The query is:
SELECT *
FROM OPENQUERY( ADSI,
'SELECT *
FROM ''LDAP://prudc/DC=<domain>,DC=com''
'
)
(note I replaced our domain name with <domain> in the above query and
error message)
This issue isn't specific to the above query as I've tried many ldap
queries and they have all worked on the local machine but failed on the
remote machine.
I'm completely stomped on this and would greatly appreciate any help I
can get.
Thanks
Hi Jim
This was a previous post when someone had the same error
http://tinyurl.com/pjg7s I am not sure how much use it will be!
If the query works on the server then I would expect it to be ok, which
probably leaves permission/access as the main issue. Can you use VB script to
query the AD e.g. using the scripts from http://www.rlmueller.net/?

|||Thanks for the help but unfortunately, I've already looked at that post
and the issue is a bit different.
The issue I'm having seems to have something to do with running a query
from a remote machine. So if I run a query on our SQL Server box from
my local desktop machine, I get the error. Running the query directly
on the SQL Server box while RDCed into the machine works flawlessly.

Cant quite figure this one out... any help?

I have 2 tables, one contains the details for all the documents stored on a server such as the documents name and which directory it is stored in, and the other contains the details for each document version (if there are any) these are paired up using the documents id, per example below

Documents
ID, Name, Dir
1, word.doc, /docs
2, excel.xls, /docs
3, webpage.html, /docs

Document Versions
ID
1
1
1
2
2
3

so, as you can see, in the versions table there are 3 versions of 'word.doc' 2 of 'excel.xls' and 1 of 'webpage.html'. i need to write a query that will return all the documents in the versions table who have a matching document in the documents table (that is not the major problem though) the main problem is that i only want to return it if the matching record in the documents table passes certain criteria, this being that it is from a certain site and has a particular type of file name. for example, i would like to return only the document versions whose parent records are '.doc' or '.xls' files, but not html. this would leave me with :

Versions
ID
1
1
1
2
2

leaving the last record out, as it's parent is a html file.

As a bonus, if you could tell me how to append the parents name to each record so i get a table like this :

Results
ID Name
1 'word.doc'
1 'word.doc'
1 'word.doc'
2 'excel.xls'
2 'excel.xls'

that would be great, thank youYou didn't specify database engine you use; but, in Oracle it would be something like this:SELECT d.id, d.name
FROM DOCUMENTS d, VERSIONS v
WHERE v.id = d.id
AND SUBSTR(d.name, INSTR(d.name, '.', 1) + 1, LENGTH(d.name)) <> 'html';
WHERE clause will be different for another requirements, of course.|||hmmm, not sure if that's quite it. and the database engine is SQL server|||As I can't see a generic SQL solution, I'd recommend using:SELECT d.id, d.name
FROM documents AS d
JOIN versions AS v
ON (v.id = d.id)
WHERE d.name NOT LIKE '%.html'-PatP|||Got It! Thanks for your help though. This was the final solution for anyone who's interested

SELECT Docs.Name, DocVersions.TimeCreated, DocVersions.Content
FROM DocVersions INNER JOIN
Docs ON DocVersions.Id = Docs.Id
WHERE (Docs.LeafName LIKE '%.doc' OR
Docs.Name LIKE '%.xls' OR
Docs.Name LIKE '%.ppt' OR
Docs.Name LIKE '%.pdf' OR
Docs.Name LIKE '%.mpp' OR
Docs.Name LIKE ' % .txt ') AND (Docs.DirName LIKE 'sites/archive/%')

I think i confused u all with my talk of leaving out the html document. It wasn't so much i wanted to leave that out as include the others if you know what i mean

Try the installation again using a valid copy of the installation package 'sqlncli.msi'.I found an old post that led me to the solution. The proposed solution was to extract the files from SQLEXPR and install SQLNativeClient by hand and then un-install it. When I ran the .msi file, it found an apparent stealth installed SQLNativeClient (Add/Remove did not show it).

Installation completed
