preconfigure port number while command line installing

Hi,

I want set a specific port number of SQL Server(express) during installation not by Configuration Manager after install.
Is it possible?

hi,

probably becouse of the multi instances support of SQL Server up to version 2000, which introduced the SQL Server Resolution Service listening on UDP 1434, now SQLBrowser, this feature has been removed from the configurable settings..

but you can interact via SMO as well, but probably after your installer has finished..

PRB SQL Express Installation not installing Manager

PRB SQL Express Installation not installing Manager.
Please help,
We are trying to work with SQL Server Express 2005, but we are having
several installation problems.
#1) Despite all efforts, the Database Manager program (ssmsee.exe) is NOT
being installed on some XP-Pro machines even though the user has FULL admin
right (and then some) to their machine. And the machine is fully 100% updated
with all MS patches, including IE 7. This includes many uninstall-reinstall
efforts.
#2) On some machines that HAD the Database MAnager, the user logs in, and
then suddenly it is GONE. The file and the short cut link.
#3) We need a profiler tool like SQL Server's 2000 Profiler which worked on
MSDE, but does not seem to be able to work on SQL Express 2005.
Thank you for the reply,
You have answered 1 and 2 through that link. Basically to explain 1 and 2 in
other words. We installed SQL Express 2005 and it DID install the management
tool, the same one that is in that link you provided. But it did not do this
on every machine. And on some machine, after a few days, it disappeared. And
no matter what we tried to do on the machines that never got it, or once had
it, we could never get it again. From this, I would have to say, that perhaps
the SQL Express 2005 installer has some bug that is making it install the
manager tool either from itself, or maybe the web, some of the time, and then
perhaps removing it from the SQL Server Express 2005 service. As nothing else
can explain this behavior. We have tested this out over 7 machines, including
2 of which were Windows 2000. Strangely, the Windows 2000 machines were the
only one to get the manager tool and keep them so far.
As for the #3, can one use the SQL Server 2000 profiler with a SQL Express
2005 database? Once upon a time, with MSDE, one could do that.
|||ONLY if you have a legitimately purchased and licensed copy of SQL Server
which gives you license to use Profiler.

Post Installation error with RS2000 on Win2000 Server

Hello,

I have installed RS2000 with no errors, but when i browse to localhost/Reports i get an RS error page that reads:

I have checked the LogFiles (C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL\Reporting Services\LogFiles) and the error message reads as follows:

However, Knowing this, i'm still not sure what to do to fix it as i'm not a newtowork/server admin.

Also, this server is a domain controller on windows 2000 server with sp4

Can someone please help.

Robbie,

I'm running into the exact same error with the exact same scenario. Did you ever resolve this issue?

Possibly similar issue with launching Report Builder from client PC's

Hi,

I got a working installation of reporting services 2005 up and running, Im able to create models and launch the Report Builder on the machine on which the server is installed, however if I try and run it from another machine on the network I get an error and Im able to view the following exception.

Following errors were detected during this operation.

Anyone able to help ?The error means that the client does not have the Whidbey CLR installed. You will need to install the Whidbey CLR on each client machine where you want to use report builder.

-Lukasz|||Hi,
I was facing similar problem while accessing Report Manager installed on different system on the network, I was able to get Report Manager menu but can not see contents on Report Server. It was displayed Blank without any exception.

Report Server is installed on http://testsrv/Reports$sql2005.

I changed configuration of Reporting Service on Server , Report Server Configuration Manager > Windows Service Identity> Service account from "Local System" to "Local Services".

I can access Report Manager with contents.

Meanwhile I noticed that Report Builder is not launching on the system which is a different system from the Report Server. As per my understanding, Report Builder is a "End user tool" and will be launched without any upgradation of the system (Different system from server). I am getting prompt for "Open/Save document".
Where as Report Builder is working fine on Server itself.

While opening document, I can see XML contents to access Report Builder.
I am pasting part of that XML file in orange colour,

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

Anyone knows how to fix this, It is required to upgrade my system, what are the upgrades require on the system to access Report Builder?

|||Your two issues are unrelated. Specifically for the Report Builder issue - the client machine (the one on which you want to run Report Builder) needs to have The .Net Framework 2.0 (CLR 2.0) installed on it.

The reason is that the Report Builder leverages the ClickOnce technology that is new in the .Net Framework 2.0.

Regarding your other issue - the Report Manager shows the top menu with a blank contents when your login does not have permissions on the root of the report server. You will need a role that has Read Properties (Browser roles has this) assigned to your login on the root of the report server namespace. Changing the account from Local System to Local Service should not affect this.

-Lukasz|||Thanks Lukasz, I have installed .NET Framework 2.0 on Client machine and able to launch Report Builder successfully.

I created a new user with sufficient permission and access to HOME directory on Report Server and able to access Reports/Data Sources/Models using Client Machine.

Thanks again!|||

I have what may be a similar problem. I try to click on the "Report Builder" button from a client machine and nothing happens, however I have tried things mentioned in the suggestions above and it did not seem to help. From a client PC, I logged in as myself and am not able to run "Report Builder", but when I login as a local admin I am able to run "Report Builder".

Our server has SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition and Visual Studio 2005 installed. I am able to run "Report Builder" from my PC where I had Visual Studio 2005 installed, but not SQL Server 2005 installed. I have local admin priviledges to my PC.

From a client PC, I logged in as myself and am not able to run "Report Builder". When I click on it nothing happens. I gave my Windows login "Content Manger" permissions under the SSRS Home -> Properties tab, and I also added my login and gave myself "System Administrator" and "System User" Roles under the SSRS ->Site Settings->Configure site-wide security option. This seems to be configured correctly, as "Report Builder" launches when I am on my PC. However, it does not launch on the client PC when logged in under my login.

Further, when I login as a local admin on the client PC, I am able to run "Report Builder", so I think the .net framework 2.0 is correctly installed and working properly. However, it is our policy not to give the user of the client PC local admin rights. My windows login does not have local admin rights to this particular PC.

Q1. Is local admin rights required on the client PC where "Report Builder" is ran? If so, is it only required for the first time it is loaded? It seems like it should not be required, however this would explain the symptoms detailed above.

Q2. Is there an error log that may help debug what this problem is? It is strange to me, that nothing happens, but no error is displayed on the http://.../reportserver/Pages page

Q3. When logged in as local admin, report builder installed to something like:

C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator.8ZR5551\Local Settings\Apps\2.0\VVJ0004J.B0N\H3KE16BP.Y07\repo..lder_89845dcd8080cc91_0009.0000_none_7ecce75e919dcccd

I am not sure if I can copy this install to another directory which the client has permission to run from. Is this a valid thing to do? I am guessing probably not since I tried this and it did not seem to work.I tried this and it did not seem to work..

Q4. I saw this posting talking about the need to run under PartialTrust mode, instead of FullTrust mode. So I reconfigured the RSWebApplication.config file to do that, and it still does not work.:

http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=280387&SiteID=1 which refers to the following link.

http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms345245.aspx

I changed the C:\Program Files\MSSQL2005\MSSQL.3\Reporting Services\ReportManager\ RSWebApplication.config

From

<Configuration><UI> …

<ReportBuilderTrustLevel> FullTrust </ReportBuilderTrustLevel>

</UI>…</Configuration>

To

<Configuration><UI> …

<ReportBuilderTrustLevel>PartialTrust</ReportBuilderTrustLevel>

</UI>…</Configuration>

Stopped and restarted report server through reporting services configuration (not sure if I needed to do this) The problem still occurred, however.

|||

Well scratch that idea on local admin rights. Our IT department gave login admin to my windows login (My computer->Manage->System Tools: Local Users and Groups->Administrators) and it still did not work. When I click on "Report Builder" it still does not do anything. I also tried to use it directly at the following URL's and it still did not work, same result of not displaying anything:

http://.../reportserver/ReportBuilder/ReportBuilder.application

http://.../reportserver/ReportBuilder/ReportBuilderLocalIntranet.application

Q5. Is there any Internet Explorer settings that would cause this behavior? I tried disabling popup blocker, but this did not seem to help.

Q6. In the above posting, giving permission on the server HOME directory was required. What directory does this refer to? Does this mean each user of Report Builder needs Windows Directory level security to some directories like C:\Program Files\MSSQL2005\MSSQL.3\Reporting Services\ReportManager\ or others? This does not seem to make sense, but I was unsure which HOME directory was mentioned in the previous posting by Nilesh Trivedi.
.

|||Well this is almost a year old but I am facing the exact same problem as Chad Buher. Clicking on the Report Builder button does nothing, no error, nothing. Can this be caused by some network policy setting?

Anyone able to help ?The error means that the client does not have the Whidbey CLR installed. You will need to install the Whidbey CLR on each client machine where you want to use report builder.

-Lukasz|||Hi,
I was facing similar problem while accessing Report Manager installed on different system on the network, I was able to get Report Manager menu but can not see contents on Report Server. It was displayed Blank without any exception.

Report Server is installed on http://testsrv/Reports$sql2005.

I changed configuration of Reporting Service on Server , Report Server Configuration Manager > Windows Service Identity> Service account from "Local System" to "Local Services".

I can access Report Manager with contents.

Meanwhile I noticed that Report Builder is not launching on the system which is a different system from the Report Server. As per my understanding, Report Builder is a "End user tool" and will be launched without any upgradation of the system (Different system from server). I am getting prompt for "Open/Save document".
Where as Report Builder is working fine on Server itself.

While opening document, I can see XML contents to access Report Builder.
I am pasting part of that XML file in orange colour,

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

Anyone knows how to fix this, It is required to upgrade my system, what are the upgrades require on the system to access Report Builder?

|||Your two issues are unrelated. Specifically for the Report Builder issue - the client machine (the one on which you want to run Report Builder) needs to have The .Net Framework 2.0 (CLR 2.0) installed on it.

The reason is that the Report Builder leverages the ClickOnce technology that is new in the .Net Framework 2.0.

Regarding your other issue - the Report Manager shows the top menu with a blank contents when your login does not have permissions on the root of the report server. You will need a role that has Read Properties (Browser roles has this) assigned to your login on the root of the report server namespace. Changing the account from Local System to Local Service should not affect this.

-Lukasz|||Thanks Lukasz, I have installed .NET Framework 2.0 on Client machine and able to launch Report Builder successfully.

I created a new user with sufficient permission and access to HOME directory on Report Server and able to access Reports/Data Sources/Models using Client Machine.

Thanks again!|||

I have what may be a similar problem. I try to click on the "Report Builder" button from a client machine and nothing happens, however I have tried things mentioned in the suggestions above and it did not seem to help. From a client PC, I logged in as myself and am not able to run "Report Builder", but when I login as a local admin I am able to run "Report Builder".

Our server has SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition and Visual Studio 2005 installed. I am able to run "Report Builder" from my PC where I had Visual Studio 2005 installed, but not SQL Server 2005 installed. I have local admin priviledges to my PC.

From a client PC, I logged in as myself and am not able to run "Report Builder". When I click on it nothing happens. I gave my Windows login "Content Manger" permissions under the SSRS Home -> Properties tab, and I also added my login and gave myself "System Administrator" and "System User" Roles under the SSRS ->Site Settings->Configure site-wide security option. This seems to be configured correctly, as "Report Builder" launches when I am on my PC. However, it does not launch on the client PC when logged in under my login.

Further, when I login as a local admin on the client PC, I am able to run "Report Builder", so I think the .net framework 2.0 is correctly installed and working properly. However, it is our policy not to give the user of the client PC local admin rights. My windows login does not have local admin rights to this particular PC.

Q1. Is local admin rights required on the client PC where "Report Builder" is ran? If so, is it only required for the first time it is loaded? It seems like it should not be required, however this would explain the symptoms detailed above.

Q2. Is there an error log that may help debug what this problem is? It is strange to me, that nothing happens, but no error is displayed on the http://.../reportserver/Pages page

Q3. When logged in as local admin, report builder installed to something like:

C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator.8ZR5551\Local Settings\Apps\2.0\VVJ0004J.B0N\H3KE16BP.Y07\repo..lder_89845dcd8080cc91_0009.0000_none_7ecce75e919dcccd

I am not sure if I can copy this install to another directory which the client has permission to run from. Is this a valid thing to do? I am guessing probably not since I tried this and it did not seem to work.I tried this and it did not seem to work..

Q4. I saw this posting talking about the need to run under PartialTrust mode, instead of FullTrust mode. So I reconfigured the RSWebApplication.config file to do that, and it still does not work.:

http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=280387&SiteID=1 which refers to the following link.

http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms345245.aspx

I changed the C:\Program Files\MSSQL2005\MSSQL.3\Reporting Services\ReportManager\ RSWebApplication.config

From

<Configuration><UI> …

<ReportBuilderTrustLevel> FullTrust </ReportBuilderTrustLevel>

</UI>…</Configuration>

To

<Configuration><UI> …

<ReportBuilderTrustLevel>PartialTrust</ReportBuilderTrustLevel>

</UI>…</Configuration>

Stopped and restarted report server through reporting services configuration (not sure if I needed to do this) The problem still occurred, however.

|||

Well scratch that idea on local admin rights. Our IT department gave login admin to my windows login (My computer->Manage->System Tools: Local Users and Groups->Administrators) and it still did not work. When I click on "Report Builder" it still does not do anything. I also tried to use it directly at the following URL's and it still did not work, same result of not displaying anything:

http://.../reportserver/ReportBuilder/ReportBuilder.application

http://.../reportserver/ReportBuilder/ReportBuilderLocalIntranet.application

Q5. Is there any Internet Explorer settings that would cause this behavior? I tried disabling popup blocker, but this did not seem to help.

Q6. In the above posting, giving permission on the server HOME directory was required. What directory does this refer to? Does this mean each user of Report Builder needs Windows Directory level security to some directories like C:\Program Files\MSSQL2005\MSSQL.3\Reporting Services\ReportManager\ or others? This does not seem to make sense, but I was unsure which HOME directory was mentioned in the previous posting by Nilesh Trivedi.
.

|||Well this is almost a year old but I am facing the exact same problem as Chad Buher. Clicking on the Report Builder button does nothing, no error, nothing. Can this be caused by some network policy setting?

Possible memory leak definite error when using CONVERT statement

Hi all,
I have a problem with my SQL Server 2000 installation that I can only think
might be a memory leak.
I was wondering if any of you have experienced similar problems and if so
how you overcame them?
Within 10 days of the server running we are having to restart the server to
flush a variable test out of memory.
The error appears when running SQL from Query Analyser, Stored procedures
called from aspx pages etc.
The error looks something like
"Unable to convert variable test to an integer variable"
As I'm sure you can guess this error only occurs when using CONVERT but rest
assured there is no variable test declared by any of the scripts we are
running on the server.
BRB
That's strange
Can you show us this script?

|||Hi
SQL Version and SP level, and we need to see the code where this occurs?
Don't forget, SQL Server does a lot of implicit conversions so explicit use
of CONVERT is not required.
