Hi,

after installation of Telerik Reporting (with examples option checked) I got installed AdventureWorks database, but it is empty and I can't run any example report without data.

Where can I get backup of AdventureWorks database with data ?

Hello,

I'm also using AdventureWorks as a reference DB for samples and trainings. You can download it from here -> https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/samples/adventureworks-install-configure?view=sql-server-ver17&tabs=ssms

The link provides the backups of the DB. You can follow the instructions in order to restore the DB.

Hello Sergii,

Can you provide an example for some of the differences? I have AdventureWorks and AdventureWorks2022 locally and they seem to work fine with the samples.

Can you confirm you can connect to the DB through Telerik Reporting? What kind of error do you see? Can you create a new simple report that is using the DB, just to confirm that the problem is not related to connectivity?

Hello Krasimir,

structure differences (compared with Visual Studio):

 

>Can you confirm you can connect to the DB through Telerik Reporting?

Yes

What kind of error do you see?


>Can you create a new simple report that is using the DB, just to confirm that the problem is not related to connectivity?

sql query:

SELECT TOP (1000) [DepartmentID]
      ,[Name]
      ,[GroupName]
      ,[ModifiedDate]
  FROM [HumanResources].[Department]

 

 

Best r

egards,
Sergii
