Hello, 

I can't find an example or a document on this point.

Is there a way to manage localization when Report are hosted in a Report Server ?

Regards,

Mike.

Probably a dumb question. 

I've successfully installed Report Server, and am trying to input a Data Connection, and enter the provider (SQL) and the connection string, which the Report Server accepts. I then use IE to create a report,however, when I chose the Data Connection I entered, I get an error saying that there is an error in index 107.

 

So I'm guessing I'm not putting in the data string correctly even though it is accepted. Can someone give me the format of the conneciton string for SQLClient Data Provider (seems like a dumb question; however, it is not working with the one I'm entering).

 

In advance, thanks for your help.

Hi,

Please can I get a few pointers on setting up an entity data source for the report server and desktop report editor: relevant documentation, walkthroughs, etc. 

I'm expecting to:

1. Make an EntityFramework model and compile it into a DLL. Easy: done.
2. Add an app.config file to the report designer and edit it to include a reference to my DLL. When I download the app from the report server it does not come with a config file. Must the config file have a specific filename? Must it be in a particular location?
3. Something similar on the report server. I can't find any documentation for this.

Thanks,

Richard.

Hello,

I am evaluating telerik report server to find out if it feed our need. I have few questions:

1. We'd like to use another method to pre-generate the report, then use  telerik report server to send them out. Can telerik report server read from an file repository attache related report and attache it then send to related customers?

2. We have MSSQL database stored our customer informations, can  telerik report server connect to our database read customer information from the table, then use customer ID to find the associated report?

3. Can telerik report server call an rul which genenrate the pdf report, then it can download the pdf file and send it out?

 

Thank you!

I have a report that has a subreport. If I set the subreport to Visible = false, everything works fine. If I have the subreport visible, it errors with "Internal Server Error A generic error occurred in GDI+." The subreport just contains 3 fields that are pulled from a database and displayed on the screen, so no images or anything. Is there any logging or anything that can be turned on to figure out whats going on?

Thanks,

Nick

I can use the Telerik Report Designer application, but I was hoping to us the 'Report Server manager' in Chrome.  When I try to create a new report, it tells me that my current browser does not support ClickOnce, and that I need to install an extension or use the RD application.  I tried installing 3 different ClickOnce Chrome extensions (by Neta4, WindosRemix and Menarva) to no avail.  I am running Windows 10 Pro and the current version of Chrome. I got the same results using Edge and Firefox browsers.  The warning I get from report server is that I should try IE, but IE doesn't run on Win 10.

Does anyone have it running on Chrome, and if so, were any speacial tweaks involved in order to get it running?

Thanks,

Bill

 

How do create a parameter that shows a list to the user so the user can select an item from the list and run the report?  In my case I have a report that can be run for three different departments, but need the user to select a department before running the report.

Currently, I have created a report with no column groups. I am trying to create a data alert using Telerik reporting server. When I select the report in general section and in rules when I try to open the drop down it is empty as shown in the link below.

There is no code for this. It is a static report designed using Telerik report designer. I have tried creating multiple report types and tried using data alerts but of no use. How can I get data alert feature to work using Telerik Report server? Any help is appreciated. I've looked at the documentation for data alert and is not useful. 

Any chance the ObjectDataSource will be added to Report Server reports? I have a lot of reports used in an MVC solution that are currently stored in a standalone .DLL that are making use of ODS(which I use because I love to write queries in Linq) that I would like to post to Report Server as well in order to take advantage of scheduling among other things. This would be extremely helpful.

Hi, Long time Telerik customer / developer here :)

I have a large customer who has been exploring reporting portals to be used for a Hosted service they want to provide to their customer base.

I have been doing the development of the solution and left them to pick a reporting solution, but they have failed to do so and now run out of time.

Long story short, I have only a few days to come back to them and say if the Telerik Reporting Server is suitable and then they will buy licensing for it. I have not used the Report Server before ( I have it installed as part of my DEV package, but never played with it!) and I am flat out with work.. so I hope someone who knows the system well can answer some questions please.

1) Is this suitable for a Public facing reporting server  ( Public URL) , to be shared with multiple customers, each with their own logons. (Tenanted). What features are not available in this scenario. It is possible they could set up access via VPN rather than having it totally public.

2) Each Tenant will have the same tables for reporting so the same reports should be used for each customer, BUT each tenant has it's own database. Can we set up each tenant to use the same reports but using their own data connection? ( Please note that each tenant may have multiple logons and each logon maybe limited to the data available to select from ( the reporting objects, not the reports)

3) General use question.. basically we want the customer to have access to a bunch of canned reports and be able to select these to run, along with parameters such as data objects to report on, time frames, grouping etc. I think they want Scheduled reports as well.

4) The customers are all in Sweden , so I think they will want the interface in Swedish ( but probably not a showstopper)

I'm sure I have lots more questions.. but I think these are the key ones...  any help greatly appreciated.
