Hello,

I just experienced this problem, and was able to successfully mitigate.  I wanted to share my experience and Solution. 

The problem started with the following error after succesfully exporting a PDF Document.  "There was an error opening this document. This file is damaged and could not be repaired."

This is only applicable if you can still export and open SSRS Reports to other formats. Go to the Log files of the SQL Instance. In my particular case I used the Default MSSQL instance:   C:\ Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSRS10_50.MSSQLSERVER\Reporting Services\LogFiles  

The Folder will begin with MSRS (SRS is for SQL Reporting Services)

Sort the files by date modified and check for the most recent log file: ex.  SQLDmpr0000.log  The 0000 will be the incremental amount of errors you have experienced in SRS. Check for the following error:"System.DllNotFoundException: Unable to load DLL 'T2Embed': Access is denied. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070005 (E_ACCESSDENIED))"


Below is a sample from the log. 

reportrendering!ReportServer_0-1!1b78!02/07/2012-11:56:03:: e ERROR: Throwing Microsoft.ReportingServices.ReportProcessing.UnhandledReportRenderingException: , Microsoft.ReportingServices.ReportProcessing.UnhandledReportRenderingException: An error occurred during rendering of the report. ---> Microsoft.ReportingServices.OnDemandReportRendering.ReportRenderingException: An error occurred during rendering of the report. ---> System.DllNotFoundException: Unable to load DLL 'T2Embed': Access is denied.

   at Microsoft.ReportingServices.ReportProcessing.ReportProcessing.RenderFromOdpSnapshot(IRenderingExtension newRenderer, String streamName, ProcessingContext pc, RenderingContext rc)

   --- End of inner exception stack trace ---;

If you notice the error states that T2Embed.dll access is denied. In my case this due to a hotfix installed by Microsoft: 

 MS11-087: Vulnerability in Windows kernel-mode drivers could allow remote code execution: December 13, 2011

Be advised, in order to fix your problem and render pdf's, a vulnerability shall be created.

 To fix this issue and allow the export to PDF work correctly, you must give the system Read/Execute Permissions, and Built-in\Administrators Full Control. 

Go to Windows\System32 and find the T2Embed.dll Go to Security and modify the permissions as listed above. Do the same to the T2Embed.dll in the SysWow64 folder.

Restart Reporting Services and you will be able to export to PDF. 

Best Wishes!

Got any nice code? If you invest time in coding an elegant, novel or impressive answer on MSDN forums, why not copy it over to the one and onlyTechNet Wiki, for future generations to benefit from! You'll never get archived again!

If you are a member of any user groups, please make sure you list them in the Microsoft User Groups Portal. Microsoft are trying to help promote your groups, and collating them here is the first step.

Symptom

Although you can set page break for column group in Reporting Services 2008, page breaks are ignored on column groups. Reference:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms156434.aspx

Solution

Here are some workarounds, available forboth Reporting Services 2005 and2008:

Workaround 1

Spread the columns from one matrix into several matrixes. You can first copy one matrix and then paste it into several ones you want. Then set the filter for each column group to make sure that the total columns’ length in one matrix just fit a page’s width.

Workaround 2

The other method is to use a custom code.

a.     Please copy the following code to the custom code area:

Dim FlagTable As System.Collections.Hashtable

Dim Flag AS Integer

 Function MyFunc(ByVal NewValue As Object) As Integer

If (FlagTable Is Nothing) Then

FlagTable = New System.Collections.Hashtable

End If

If (NewValue Is Nothing) Then

NewValue = "-"

End If

If (Not FlagTable .Contains(NewValue )) Then

Flag =Flag + 1

FlagTable.Add(NewValue, nothing)

End If

MyFunc = Flag

End Function

b.     Create a list in your report.

Imagine thatthe column group of a matrix is grouped bythe field ‘Column_Group’, then set the detail group of list withthe expression like this:

=Ceiling(Code.MyFunc(Fields!Column_Group.Value)/5)

Note: This means the Max number of column in matrix will be five after you follow step C.

c.      Sort the dataset by column group field, and then drag the matrix into the list. Click Preview.

Workaround 3

Similar to the second method, you need to modify the dataset.

a.     Create an ID column for the column group in your dataset.

For example,there isa datasetwith the following query:

SELECT * FROM Table

The column group is grouped on the field “Group1”.Then, modify the query like this:

SELECT *, Dense_Rank()OVER(order by Group1) AS ID FROM Table 

b.     Create a list in your report, set the detail group of the list with the Expression like this:

=Ceiling(Fields!ID.Value/5)

Note: This meansthat the Max number of column in matrix will be five after you followthe step C.

c.      Sort the dataset bythe column group and then drag the matrix into the list. Click Preview.

Hello,

I need some guidance on how to get a sub-report with a sub-report header and an expanding table. Please see below.

This is the structure of things that I have:

Main Report 1 is being invoked by ONLY Parameter 1 (User Text Box Entry).

It Contains:

     Page 1: Sub-Report 1 invoked by Parameter 1

     Page 2 or more Pages: Sub-report 2 and a table (T1) expanding vertically based on Parameter 1 and Parameter 2. The Sub-report 2 should appear as header on all pages where T1 rows are there. Additionally, multiple Parameter 2 values may be present and if so, they need to appear on a different page with appropriate header/table data. Parameter 1 and 2 are associated with a ONE dataset & its fields.

     Last Page: Sub-Report 3 and few text boxes below it. Invoked by Parameter 1

The issue is I don't know how to insert Page 2 content. I tried making a new report with Sub-report 2 and the T1 below it. This is working fine but I'm not able to get the sub-report as header on all pages EXCEPT the first page. FixedData and RepeatOnNewPage properties are TRUE & KEEPwithGroup is set to 'AFTER'. Also, once I'm done with this report how do I insert it in the main report. Would it be in group / outside group in the group properties -- I would really appreciate if you can guide me with steps.

Thank you,

Hi there,

We are developing a web application in sharepoint 2013 in which we are using authentication mode="Windows”.  We have used a custom web part containing report viewer control for showing charts and reports, that we have developed using SSRS (*.rdl files) and have all the .rdl files within Sharepoint Document Library.

To start with, we were getting the error “Report Server has encountered a SharePoint error. (rsSharePointError) The user does not exist or is not unique.” To fix this, we changed <identity impersonate="false" /> from <identity impersonate="true" /> at web.config level which did the trick.

However, we are now facing another issue wherein tabular reports are renedered ok in SharePoint through report viewer custom web part but chart based reports are not rendered. The chart image is not displayed. 

Can somebody please help with a resolution?

The code snippet for rendering the report is given below for reference purposes

Thanks in advance

Hi ALL ,

I have a report with 10 columns and Report toolbar with 4 Parameter .  Whenever the view report button is clicked the report toolbar expands up to the 10 columns in report making the view report button move to the extreme right and parameter on the left . Is it possible that the report toolbar doesn't expand according to the report  columns and remains on the left only .

Please help 

Introduction

In a Reporting Services report, if you add a column group on the tablix, the tablix would look like the screenshot below when previewing report.

Then the requirement is that add a column after each month to calculated increment on the basis of previous month amount. If we use the expression
=Fields!Amount.Value-Previous(Fields!Amount.Value)
in that column directly, we will get the error
The use of a Previous aggregate function in a TablixCell within Tablix 'TablixName' is not supported.

This error occurs when you use a Previous in the cell that belong to a column group and a row group. When using this function in that cell, RS cannot to decide to get column previous value or row previous value. So you cannot use a Previous in the cell that belong to a column group and a row group.

In this article, I will demonstrate how to calculate the increment between two columns in Column Group.

Solution

Since Previous function is not supported in that cell, then you can pass the amount of each month to custom code and store the values on a queue, and calculated the increment between each month in the custom code and return it to that column. Copy the custom code below and paste it to your report. (Right-click your report>Report Properties>code).

Private queueLength As Integer = 2
Private queueSum As Double = 0
Private queueFull As Boolean = False
Private idChange As String=""
Dim queue As New System.Collections.Generic.Queue(Of Integer)
Public Function CumulativeQueue(ByVal currentValue As Integer,id As String) As Object
    Dim removedValue As Double = 0
    If idChange <> id then
                  ClearQueue()
                idChange = id
                queueSum = 0
                queueFull = False
                CumulativeQueue(currentValue,id)
    Else
                If queue.Count >= queueLength Then
                    removedValue = queue.Dequeue()
                End If
            queueSum += currentValue
            queueSum -= removedValue
            queue.Enqueue(currentValue)
        If queue.Count < queueLength Then
                Return Nothing
            ElseIf queue.Count = queueLength And queueFull = False Then
                    queueFull = True
                    Return (queueSum-currentValue-currentValue)
            Else
                    Return (queueSum-currentValue-currentValue)
            End If
    End If
End Function
public function ClearQueue()
    Dim i as Integer
    Dim n as Integer = Queue.Count-1
    for i=n To 0 Step-1
        queue.Dequeue()
    next i
End function

Then refer to the steps below to achieve the requirement.

1. Right-click the handle of the column group>Insert Column>Inside Group-Right
2. Type the expressions below to the inserted column.
   =Code.CumulativeQueue(Fields!Amount.Value,Fields!Type.Value)
3. The design surface looks like the screenshot below.
   
4. The report looks like below.
   

Besides, you can use this custom code to calculate the average value for previous few month. Such as, if you want to calculate previous 3 months average value, you can change the queue length to 3 and return queueSum/queueLength. Please refer to the code and screenshots below.

Private queueLength As Integer = 3
Private queueSum As Double = 0
Private queueFull As Boolean = False
Private idChange As String=""
Dim queue As New System.Collections.Generic.Queue(Of Integer)
Public Function CumulativeQueue(ByVal currentValue As Integer,id As String) As Object
    Dim removedValue As Double = 0
    If idChange <> id then
                  ClearQueue()
                idChange = id
                queueSum = 0
                queueFull = False
                CumulativeQueue(currentValue,id)
    Else
                If queue.Count >= queueLength Then
                    removedValue = queue.Dequeue()
                End If
            queueSum += currentValue
            queueSum -= removedValue
            queue.Enqueue(currentValue)
        If queue.Count < queueLength Then
                Return Nothing
            ElseIf queue.Count = queueLength And queueFull = False Then
                    queueFull = True
                    Return queueSum/queueLength
            Else
                    Return queueSum/queueLength
            End If
    End If
End Function
public function ClearQueue()
    Dim i as Integer
    Dim n as Integer = Queue.Count-1
    for i=n To 0 Step-1
        queue.Dequeue()
    next i
End function

Introduction

Supposing there is a domain named CONTOSO.com, and you want to create a report to display the users in the Active Directory by using SQL Server Reporting Services. There are several methods to creating a SSRS report that retrieves data from the Active Directory. Please refer to the following three methods:

Solution

Method 1: Using Linked Server and Stored Procedure to query data from AD

1. Create a linked server to Active Directory server on SQL Server instance, you can refer to the following statement to add a linked server:
   EXEC sp_addlinkedserver @server=N'ADSI', @srvproduct=N'Active Directory Services 2.5', @provider=N'ADSDSOObject', @datasrc=N'adsdatasource'
   EXEC sp_addlinkedsrvlogin @rmtsrvname=N'ADSI', @useself=N'False', @locallogin=NULL, @rmtuser=N'contoso\LDAP', @rmtpassword='Password'
2. Create a stored procedure to query the AD with OPENQUERY statement
   CREATE PROCEDURE AD
   AS
   BEGIN
   SELECT * FROM OPENQUERY(ADSI1, 'SELECT ADsPath,cn,objectCategory,name FROM ''LDAP://dc=contoso,dc=com''
   WHERE objectCategoty=''user''')
   END
3. In Report Designer or Report Builder, create the report by using the corresponding data source and generate the dataset based on the stored procedure created above.

Method 2: Create Directory Services Data Source and using LDAP query

1. In Report Designer or Report Builder, create data source with OLE DB Data Source type and following connection string:
   Provider=ADsDSOObject;Data Source=adsdatasource
   
2. Create the dataset with following LDAP query:
   SELECT ADsPath,cn,objectCategory,name FROM 'LDAP://dc=contoso,dc=com'
   WHERE objectCategoty='user'

Method 3: Implementing a custom data extension to query the AD

We can get the custom data processing extension for Active Directory from SSRS samples
The sample is installed to <install driver>:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Samples\Reporting Services\Extension Samples\ActiveDirectory Sample by default.

You can download the sample from: http://msftrsprodsamples.codeplex.com/
For the detail steps for deploy the custom data processing extension and create reports against the custom data source, please refer to the following article:
Readme_Active Directory Data Processing Extension Sample
(Notes: The samples work only with SQL Server 2005, 2008 and 2008 R2)

Within my report I have a field =Join(Lookupset(Fields!Account_Number.Value,Fields!Account_Number.Value, Fields!Task_Creator.Value & VbCrLf & Fields!Task_Notes.Value, "Tasking"),VbCrLf)

When I run the report it pulls the TASK notes however, within the TASK Notes there are erroneous symbols

"&#x0D" throught out the report. 

I am not sure why this is occuring.  Any recommendations would be appreciated

Thanks in Advance

SSRS - Report Builder 3.0

I have created a report with a MATRIX table with a TOTAL ROW and a TOTAL COLUMN and the total column is calculating correctly but the ROW totals is not calculating correctly

The screen shot below is of the Matrix table in the Report Builder 3.0 "Designer view" 

When I run the report the column totals the percentage is averaged correctly, but the ROW TOTALS do not, some are close but i need them to be accurate.

If you take the same data into excel the total percentage calculates correctly - if you compare the excel with the SSRS some rows do calculate close, but not accurate. the total column calculates correctly

I Need the totals rows and columns to average the percentage correctly in the SSRS report.

Please help...

Hello.

One of the biggest weakness of Reporting Services is definitely the fact that we can't design ourselves panel parameter.

Indeed, This one is totally generated by SSRS and cannot be changed. Moreover its design and features are very limited. This weakness is a regular problem for me in my work, when I integrate reports into a web site, for example.

So, we are using some workarounds, such as using the ReportViewer object and fully develop report parameters ourselves in our website. But this is problematic because it must be repeated for each report, this is time consuming and the code behind must query the OLAP Cube directly to fill the parameters values.

I have seen other solutions like to rewrite the CSS ReportViewer. But again, this is problematic because this change will apply to all the reports deployed on the server.

So, what solution you use? Have you found a magic answer? Or you let the default design?

How to display the report viewer control in google chrome?!

I used report viewer in aspx page.

The report viewer is working in all the browser exept in Google chrome.

What to do to work the report viewer in Google chrome?!

Visual Studio 2010; SQL 2012; SharePoint 2010. Reports are built in VS and hosted in SharePoint.

I had built a parameter with two links to hidden reports for additional detail. The links are textboxes with an action to run the specified report, passing in the calling report parameters to the detail reports. The parameters are exactly the same, except the the detail reports have the parameters as hidden while the parameters are visible in the calling report. The three reports had been working for several weeks.

After changing my browser to IE 9 (9.0.8112.16421) and making a minor change to the main and sub reports, the sub reports failed when called, issuing the following:
Parameter validation failed. It is not possible to provide valid values for all parameters. ---> Microsoft.ReportingServices.ReportProcessingException: Parameter validation failed. It is not possible to provide valid values for all parameters.

Part of my troubleshooting involved changing the parameter to "visible" rather than "hidden", but the report kept failing, even when I removed potential values or provided hard-coded simple values. The sub reports consistently worked as expected in Visual Studio and Report Builder. I was finally successful, but had to delete the deployed report and re-deploy with the parameter set to visible.

I've been using reports / linked reports with the same type of functionality for years - first time I've run across this.

what is the difference between Micro Soft related programs and Sun Micro System related programs?

Hello, can anyone help me to solve this issue:

I want to range my chart in SSRS 2008, I am trying to order by company and by year, but it doesn't appear the correct year, only the company.  

See first the wrong image and then the correct one to be more clear.



Correct:

Many Thanks
