I recently upgraded to 2010 and am having issues with the new SQLDatasource. When I try to use a reportviewer in my web project, I get the error below. Previously in 2009 when I referenced the DLL, it brought across the data connections. With the new SQLDatasource, it does not seem to bring the conncetion string with it.

How do I seet the data connection in the 2010 version?


Unable to connect to database. Please verify that your connection string is valid; in case you use a connection string from the application configuration file, make sure the name is correct and the connection string settings are present in the configuration file of your application.

My developers have a base report that is used as a class for all other reports. The base report has a datasource for some config information, which is used to populate a few text boxes. The textboxes were created in the designer, but the declarations were moved to the class. However, when a report uses this base as its parent, the textboxes show the message "An error has occurred while processing Textbox '[object name]'; the expression contains object [fieldname] that is not defined in the current context".

Data in the derived report is appearing properly, it's just the data in the parent report that is not appearing.

Any suggestions?

Hello,

Testing on iOS 4.3.3 on an iPod, there are no scroll bars appearing for a report.

You can see this on the telerik demos at:

I've been told this is also an issue when viewing on iPhone 4 and iPad (original, we haven't tested iPad2)

Is this a known issue and if so are there any magic settings?

Thanks,
Dyana

Hi,

I am trying to evaluate the product and build a reporting solution using postgres DB.
In my case I need to build the report based on the result returned by a stored procedure(function in postgress) but I could not find any examples on postgress.
Can somebody help me and provide a sample or at least a link to some tutorials? 

While I was trying to integrate with postgres, I have found the following error(which was caused by a missing connection string parameter):
An error has occurred while processing Report 'Report2':
Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation.
------------- InnerException -------------
ERROR: 42P01: relation "voa_keygen" does not exist Telerik.OpenAccess.RT.sql.SQLException: ERROR: 42P01: relation "voa_keygen" does not exist
at Telerik.OpenAccess.RT.Adonet2Generic.Impl.StatementImp.executeQuery(String sql)
at OpenAccessRuntime.Relational.sql.HighLowRelationalKeyGenerator.IsCached(Connection con, RelationalKeyGeneratorInfoCache infoCache, String tab, String kCol, String vCol, String key, Boolean& ret)
at OpenAccessRuntime.Relational.sql.HighLowRelationalKeyGenerator.init(String className, RelationalTable theClassTable, Connection con, RelationalKeyGeneratorInfoCache relationalKeyGeneratorInfoCache)
at OpenAccessRuntime.Relational.RelationalStorageManagerFactory.init(Boolean full)
------------- InnerException -------------
ERROR: 42P01: relation "voa_keygen" does not exist

for everyone who had this issues with postgres, just specify, Protocol = 3 in Connection String and everything should work after.

Kind Regards,
Georgina.

First off, let me start by saying that I'm not asking this question to strike a competency debate between Microsoft and Telerik versions of the Report Viewer functionality; but moreso to solicit candid opinions and facts so I can make an well-informed decision.

I know that there are a lot of similarities when it comes to the type of content that may be rendered and the methodologies used to acquire the rendered reports, what I am interested in are the most basic differences.

From what I can tell, one of the most obvious reason for choosing Telerik reporting over Microsoft would be the absense of a license to have access to the SSRS development environment in order to create Microsofts proprietary RDL schema based reports to support their ReportViewer control. Presenting the benefit that you can create and implement Telerik reports solely using the Telerik Reporting API in contrast to having need to purchase a Microsoft license.

Adversely, if someone had the requirement to develop a portal based on the existence of an SSRS Report Server where users created and uploaded their on reports then obviously the Telerik Report Viewer would not likely be the way to go under that set of circumstances.

Could anyone provide any other immediate benefits that I may have missed or are there any? I believe the Telerik reporting control is an excellent tool and it looks extremely similar to the MS ReportViewer control, I just need to get the raw basics on where the 2 differ.

Thanks!

Is there potential support for 2D Matrix Barcode in the near future?  Is so, what is the timeline and is it going to be in the 2010 version?

Reports version 5.1.11.713
I have a basic table layout report.  If I run the SQL directly in SQL Server it takes 1 second to return 15,852 rows.  If I attempt to run this via a report it times out.  I have increased the timeout to 120 and it still times out.  Why is this happening when the SQL itself only takes a second?  I understand it will take some additional time to pull all that data back and construct objects in memory but it shouldn't take that long.  I just downloaded a trial version of DataDynamics Reports and the same exact report with that engine loads all 378 pages in under 15 seconds.
