When we generate large reports (150 + pages) and then try to export those reports as PDFs, we get the following errror: Report is unavailable or session has expired.

We have increased the seession timeout to 60 in the web.config

<

 

sessionState timeout="60" />

Any ideas?

Hello,

In general I am very please with telerik; however, it seems like VB.NET is an afterthought in regards to samples...

The following is the code supplied for VB.NET to connect a chart to a datasource and seems useless as far as correct code....not that it can't be modified but just a bit annoying.

This is from ms-help://telerik.reporting.3.2/Reporting/BuildingDatabindDatabase.html

Imports System  
Imports Telerik.Reporting.Chart  
 
Public Partial Class Report1  
 Inherits Report  
 Public Sub New()  
  """ <summary>  
  """ Required for telerik Reporting designer support  
  """ </summary>  
  InitializeComponent()  
 
    End Sub 
 Private Sub chart1_NeedDataSource(sender As Object, e As System.EventArgs)  
 " create a datasource  
   Dim sqlDataSource As New SqlDataSource()  
   sqlDataSource.ID = "myDataSource" 
   sqlDataSource.ConnectionString = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings("NorthwindConnectionString").ConnectionString  
   sqlDataSource.SelectCommand = "SELECT CategoryName, SUM(ProductSales) AS TotalSales FROM [Product Sales for 1997] GROUP BY CategoryName" 
 Dim procChart As Telerik.Reporting.Processing.Chart = DirectCast(sender, Telerik.Reporting.Processing.Chart)  
 procChart.DataSource = "myDataSource" 
" Set the column for data and data labels:
 " Each bar will show "TotalSales", each label along  
 " X-axis will show "CategoryName.  
 chart1.Series(0).DataYColumn = "TotalSales'
 chart1.PlotArea.XAxis.DataLabelsColumn = 'CategoryName'
 " assign appearance related properties  
 chart1.PlotArea.XAxis.Appearance.LabelAppearance.RotationAngle = 300  
 chart1.PlotArea.XAxis.Appearance.TextAppearance.TextProperties.Color = System.Drawing.Color.BlueViolet  
 chart1.PlotArea.Appearance.Dimensions.Margins.Bottom = Telerik.Reporting.Charting.Styles.Unit.Percentage(30)  
 
End Sub 
End Sub 
 End Class

I am trying to follow the video tutorial for using parameterized queries here, but the tutorial seems to revolve around using a SqlDataAdapter which the video shows as showing up in the Telerik Reporting menu in the toolbox, but in my Telerik Reporting Q3 2009 there is no SqlDataAdapter.

How do I get this to show up?

Help! I'm under a time crunch!!

Hello,

Has anyone connected to Reporting Q2 2009 using Enterprise Library 4.1 DAAB?

I've reviewed the Code Examples and Videos, 22Reporting ConnectingToData however I was unable to find a way.

Are there any short online examples of this type of data connection?

Many thanks

I recently downloaded the trial of the reporting component, and have created a report project in my solution with a couple of reports. Upon running the web site I get the "failed to map path" error, which upon searching I see is a security issue - http://www.telerik.com/community/forums/reporting/telerik-reporting/failed-to-map-the-path.aspx. Are you actually saying that to run your report viewer I have to run as an Administrator, when we should actively be encouraging users to run without elevated rights? Do I, and the rest of the developers, now have to Run as Admin every time, sometimes forgetting, then having to close VS and reopen it?

In the replies to the other thread you state that it's the WebConfigurationManager causing the error and that you can't touch that, which is true, but not helpful. The error is because you loop through the handlers to ensure that Telerik.ReportView.axd is present and it's that and only that, that requires elevated permissions as far as I can see. there really any reason to check that the handler is present? You could easily document the requirements for the handler; I have to add the handler anyway, so why check for its presence? There may be a very good reason why you need to check, and I'd love to hear it, but all I can see is that you throw an exception when initialising the viewer if the handler isn't configured.

I love the reporting framework you've built, but this is causing me to think again about using it.

Hi Telerik Team,

                 I have a portal which has the functionality to print the details displayed in the UI. I want to implement the same functionality of printing the data in the UI using the Telerik Reporting. I was able to implement the same by creating a report using the Report Wizard and then viewing the same using ReportViewer and then was able to print the data.

                   My question here is "How do i create a report on the fly through the code which includes the designing of the report based on the multiple parameters passed to the report and also display the data from a database?" . I have gone through the Self paced training material provided in the Telerik site but was not able to implement the same.

          My portal is already up and running and i just want to incorporate Telerik Reporting into the portal and implement the Reporting functionality and then print the report. The Report parameters will wary from page to page of the portal and the Report should be available across all the pages of the portal.
 
            Please provide me with some inputs on how to implement the same.

Thanks,
Raja Sekhar.

Dear Sir/Madam,

Using the latest release of Telerik Reporting (3.2.9.1211), the direct print functionality from the Silverlight ReportViewer results in Page Not Found (404) when using DateTime ReportParameters, which only can be seen when using a sniffer tool, like HttpWatch. I've several parameters defined, after removing the DateTime parameters the Adobe print dialog is shown.

The version of the Silverlight Controls which I use is 2009.3.1127.1030.

Hopefully this can be solved in the next release.


Regards,

I've recently purchased the Telerik radtools software, which I like very much, and now I'm considering using the report tools.  This might be a biased forum but how does the Telerik Reporting software compare to Crystal?  I seem to run into frequesnt problems with Crystal on my web applications and have never really liked using it.  Should I abandon Crystal and get Telerik?  What are the benefits of switching?

Thanks,
Bruce
