Hello Telerik Reporting Community,

We have released a new version of Telerik Reporting today, 2024 Q1 (18.0.24.130). Please update your existing installation at your earliest convenience.

You can review the Legacy Installer Vulnerability - Telerik Reporting article to learn more details about why we are recommending customers to update.

To get the new version, take the following steps:

1. Go to Downloads | Your Account. 
2. Select Telerik Reporting.
3. Download the msi installer file, run it, and follow the steps to completion.

Notes

As the KB article explains, the issue pertained only to the old installer component, and not Telerik Reporting contained within the installation package. It does not affect any applications you’re using Telerik Reporting with.

If you have a rare situation where you cannot update the PC installed version, there are various ways to keep a project using an older version of reporting even though the PC has a newer version installed.

• NuGet Option: Update your projects to use the Telerik Reporting NuGet packages, instead of local DLLs (see https://docs.telerik.com/reporting/getting-started/installation/installation-approaches#using-nuget-packages).

• Copied Assemblies Option: Copy the older version’s DLLs to the project directory, then update the project references to use the copied assemblies (instead of the assemblies in C:/Program files (x86)/Progress/Telerik Reporting [older version]/)

We highly recommend you open a Technical Support Ticket if you have a complex situation and would like to ask questions before updating the PC’s installed version. You can open a Support Ticket here => https://prgress.co/DevToolsSupport.

Hello Supports,

I want to try and install Nuget packages Telerik.Reporting.Services.AspNetCore for my Asp.net Core project but it isn't found.

when I go to the option "Manage Nuget packages", these are no available the packages to download (see the attached file).
Is it missing from the private nuget feed ?

Thank You.

Hello, we're in the process of migrating from Oracle Reports (since it's no longer supported) and are evaluating Telerik Reporting as a solution. After looking up the the Standalone editor and make a few POC reports, we have a few questions.

For reference :

• we have ~700 reports that we will migrate over time. They all are "static" reports, meaning that we only want to produce a PDF that will be downloaded by the user at the click of a button.
• we don't intend to use the Telerik Report Server solution.
• we want our reports to consume a REST url to get the needed data (which will return a JSON). Which means we probably will have a REST url for each report.

Here are our questions :

1. What's the difference between the .NET Framework and .NET 6 standalone executables ? Why use one or the other ? Are the report files (.TRDP/.TRDX) produced identical between the two ?
2. When upgrading Telerik Reporting, we understand that we have to be careful about the version and it's changes. What about the report files ? Do we have to "upgrade" each and every one of them manually each time we upgrade Telerik Reporting ? With ~700 reports, it would be way too much time consuming.
3. Our development workflow would be the following. Are there any catch we should be aware ? Is it feasible ? 
   1. Create a REST url for the new report
   2. Create the new report with the standalone editor and set it's datasource with the newly created REST url
   3. Push the report on a custom report server
   4. Implement the call to the report in our application

4. Lastly, what's the best practice for the report versioning ? We'd like to use a GIT to store our report files and show diffs between each revision. I understand I would not be possible with a .TRDP since it's an archive, so should we save and store our report file as .TRDX to achieve this ?

Thanks a lot for your help !

I'm relatively new to the Standalone Report Designer, so I apologize if this is expected behavior. I'm connecting to Postgres and have everything set up correctly (AFAIK). If I open the .NET Report Designer via the EXE, the data connection initializes and I get data. However, if I click on a TRDP file to open the designer, the data connection doesn't initialize and I get an "Unable to establish a connection to the database" message with inner exception "Cannot load type for DbProviderTypeName "Npgsql.NpgsqlFactory". Why would opening the EXE directly be any different from opening via TRDP? This feels like a bug, but there may some documentation I just haven't made it to yet.

My current setup:

• Standalone Report Designer v18.0.24.305
• Npgsql v6.0.10
• Npgsql.dll exists in the same directory as Telerik.ReportDesigner.Net.exe
• Connection string and assembly reference added to Telerik.ReportDesigner.Net.dll.config
• config file snippet:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
    <connectionStrings>
        <clear />
        <add name="Telerik.Reporting.Examples.CSharp.Properties.Settings.TelerikConnectionString" connectionString="Data Source=No Local Servers Found!;Initial Catalog=AdventureWorks;Integrated Security=SSPI" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient"/>
        <add name="{theName}" connectionString="{theConnectionString}" providerName="Npgsql" />
    </connectionStrings>
  
    <Telerik.Reporting>
        <AssemblyReferences>
            <add name="Npgsql" />
        </AssemblyReferences>
    </Telerik.Reporting>
</configuration>

In https://docs.telerik.com/reporting/getting-started/first-steps-designing#step-2-create-the-sample-report in step 3, "Click Next to execute the query and the Execute Query... button on the next screen to preview the result. Then, click Finish." (selecting Telerik.Reporting.Examples.CSharp.Properties.Settings.TelerikConnectionString), I get this error message:

Configure SQL Data Source - sqlDataSource1

An error has occurred.
Parameter information cannot be retrieved: Connection
Timeout Expired, The timeout period elapsed while
attempting to consume the pre-login handshake
acknowledgement, This could be because the pre-login
handshake failed or the server was unable to respond back in
time. The duration spent while attempting to connect to this
server was - [Pre-Login] initialization=15089;
handshake=7147;

I have the same problem when trying to create a new connection.

Turning off the Windows Defender firewall for private network and trying again:

Configure SQL Data Source - sqlDataSource3
An error has occurred.
Parameter information cannot be retrieved: Cannot open
database AdventureWorks• requested by the login. The login
failed.
Login failed for user 'xxx•.

Turning on the firewall again, and I still get "The login
failed"

I have round adhesive labels with a hole in the middle. I would like to design these labels using the report designer. To see the actual shape of my label, I use a background image in Designtime. This way I can place the text boxes around the hole.

How can I hide this background image when printing or previewing?

thanks

Thomas

Hello,

When attempting to run the following,

ng add @progress/telerik-angular-native-report-viewer

to our Angular 16 project, it's complaining about peer dependencies.

C:\dev\git-projects\my-app>ng add @progress/telerik-angular-native-report-viewer

i Using package manager: npm

At first I upgraded kendo-angular-buttons from v15.0 to 15.4.0, but even so, I keep seeing this strange dependency on v14 - i.e. @progress/kendo-angular-buttons@"14" .

I'll post my package dependencies, if it may help:

I've tried a few lower versions from npm but nothing works - i.e. https://www.npmjs.com/package/@progress/telerik-angular-native-report-viewer

FYI: I do have the std HTML5 Telerik Report Viewer working on another branch, along with the JQuery npm package - but I uninstalled both. And of course I did that in order to use your native Angular report viewer instead.

Thank you in advance,

Bob

I was using the service in Framework 4.8 but migrating to .NET 8 and I'm trying to reference an assembly that uses some functions in the reports.
How do I reference?

he only place I found was this one but it doesn't work.
