Browser time out: when executing a DTS package

Hello All,
I am am having a strange problem. I am trying to execute a DTS package
from VB .NET (.aspx) page. The DTS package takes 21 minutes to execute.
When the aspx page sends a command to MS SQL server to execute this DTS
package it starts executing. After 8 minutes the .aspx page shows error
"Cannot Find Server" and errors out with a white screen. The
inetresting thing is the DTS package is still being executed in backend
and completes execution successfully.
I have no clue why this is happening because there are other DTS
packages that I am executing through the same .aspx page that takes
about 3 minutes to complete execution and are working absolutely fine.
By the way I have a stored procedure wrapper over every DTS package. So
when i have to execute a DTS package I execute a stored which inturn
executes a DTS package.
Thanks for reading my query. If you have any suggestions please let me
know.
Thank you in advance.The aspx page (or the command object, or whatever you are using to execute
the stored procedure) has a timeout property. When the timeout value is
reached the web page times out.
Can you increase the timeout for that one database call?

I tried setting the time out for the command object but it still does
not work right.
It has the exact same behaviour.

Browser Time Out: when executing a DTS package

Hello All,

I am am having a strange problem. I am trying to execute a DTS package
from VB .NET (.aspx) page. The DTS package takes 21 minutes to execute.

When the aspx page sends a command to MS SQL server to execute this DTS

package it starts executing. After 8 minutes the .aspx page shows error

"Cannot Find Server" and errors out with a white screen. The
inetresting thing is the DTS package is still being executed in backend

and completes execution successfully.

I have no clue why this is happening because there are other DTS
packages that I am executing through the same .aspx page that takes
about 3 minutes to complete execution and are working absolutely fine.

By the way I have a stored procedure wrapper over every DTS package. So

when i have to execute a DTS package I execute a stored which inturn
executes a DTS package.

Thanks for reading my query. If you have any suggestions please let me
know.

Thank you in advance.Hi

Have you though about doing this through a job and not waiting?

Browser tab error/crash in BIDS when I want to browse data

I just a newbie , for SQL Analysis service 2005

I followed Analyasis Service Tutorial to create Analysis Project when I done everything after create data source , DSV , create cube and processing cube. I click deploy project and when I click browser tab it's crash and BIDS(Business Intelligence Development Studio) hang not response.

What should I do ? Any suggestion. While after deploy I can use other tab near browser tab properly.

What kind of error you are getting?

See what happens if you wait a little bit. The deployment is sending command to Analysis Server that needs to process a cube and then executes a query to show your results in BIDS. This all might take some time. So wait till deplyment finishes and then go and browse your data.

See if installing SP2 helps you getting better performace out of your cube.

Edward.

Browser similar to SSAS required for SSRS

Hi,

How to import analysis browser in SSRS. I need features similar to SSAS Cube browser and SSAS dimention browser.

Regards

Spandan

As you probably know, SSRS has an MDX Designer which you can use if you target SSAS 2005. It is possible to host your own query designer although this feature is currently not documented. You need to contact the RS product group for more details.

Browser Role get Admin Tools... why?

Hi there,
We're trying to set up a Browser Role on a Server for Reporting Services. We
have created the NT User, and then added a Browser role for them in RS. But
for some reason, even though when we access Reports and type in the Browser's
Credentials, all of the Admin Tools are still there and usable.
I've done the exact same thing previously and had no complications like
this. What could be causing this to happen?
Thanks
AndreThe Answer is...
the report web apps in IIS has anom access selected!

Browser Role - Deletes

I'm trying to restrict my users from being able to delete or move any of the
reports. Using the Browser Role ( View Folders, View Reports ) still
allows them to get to the "Show Details" page with full access to delete my
reports. What am I missing?
TIA
TinaThe Show Details will still show the check box to delete the report. But
the user does not have permissions to do it and will receive an error. If
this is not the case, please let me know.
Make sure you apply permissions at the folder level as well.

Browser Refresh

The browser refreshes every 2 seconds when
"Render this report with the most recent data"->"Cache a temporary *" is
selected.
It also refreshes around every 30 seconds when nothing is selected. Has
anyone had an similar issue, I've done a little searching, is their a way to
disable auto-browser refresh entierly?Check if AutoRefresh is selected in the 'Report Properties'.. may be it is
set to 2 seconds..

Browser realignment

Howdy all,
I was curious, we have built a reporting services backend for DotNetNuke which displays reports in an IFRAME, but as you drill through the report the browser and iframe realign down to the top of the item clicked, here i show you,... This is before i click on a toggle item,...

Everything seems normal, browser and iframe all at the top,...
Then, as you can see the browser needlessly dives down the page, and the report rolls down as well,


Anyone know of a remedy for this, is there a property which can be set in RS or is it all in my frame configuration??
It is annoying enough for me to scroll back up, so i know the customer wont be jazzed about it either.
I thank in advance anyone for their help,...

Good Morning:

There may be a number of issues (postback's, IIS, etc.) and I have deployed DNN in a similar way to your above example. This "thread" from the DNN forum may lead you in a direction that may help.

Browser problem?

I've installed SQL Server 2005 Express on Windows 2000 server. I've enabled
tcp/ip for remote connections. I also have SQL Server 7 on the same server.
I can connect to the SQL Server Express instance remotely if I specify the
dynamic port:
sqlcmd -S<ip address>\sqlexpress,<port number> -Usa -Ppassword
I've started SQL Server Browser and tried to connect without specifying the
dynamic port but it doesn't work?
What am I doing wrong?
What are the specific error messages, numbers when you can't

Browser Compatibility in SSRS 2005

How can I get my report to render correctly in Firefox?
The report displays squished to the left side of the browser as it did in SSRS 2000.
Is it the viewer that does this or a setting I need to set?
I am running my report from a URL.

Also seems to open ok if I export to PDF.
Does not work in HTML view.Check sizes of report items in your report and CanShrink/CanGrow properties. If they are set incorrectly in most cases IE will still show them right. Firefox is picky.|||Thanks that was it
|||

I need suggestions regarding the report being viewed in firefox:

Problem:

In Matrix reports the "sub Total" Columnm is getting wrapped to .0001 in (Probably!!!!! not to that accuracy), But i can see the remaining part like Row and Column Cells r displaying properly.

only the Last Column is being truncated..

This happens only in FireFox But not in IE.

Required Result:

"Sub Total" column also has to be seen clearly as other cells.

Any Suggestions?

Browser compatibility for Reporting Services

We are considering using Reporting Services along with Dundas charts for our
web-based reporting application. However, we hear that using Reporting
Services will LIMIT us to only I.E. browser. Is this true? Can Reporting
Services be used with other web browsers besides I.E.?
Thank you,
Morgan StricklandJust my 2 cents. I use IE and FireFox. The Report Manager and Report
Server webs and the web service rendering work just fine in IE. It doesn't
work correctly in Firefox 1.0.4. I would be curious to test Mozilla and
some of the others...

Browser Based Report Builder

Hi,
I am looking at building a simple browser based report builder. I would like
to provide options to move fields and add text\captions to exsisting reports
using a browser(IE)
To startwith I am looking at displaying the fields(those are present in
report) in a grid(where the user could change the order of them) and have a
report preview pane(where the user could preview the report.
Could someone please let me know how I could have a preview pane in web page
and how I could make changes to the report as soon as a user changes the
fields order in grid.
Any help\suggestions on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
PonnuIf you have SS2005 then dont reinvent the wheel, it is already there as
Report Model / Report Builder which i browser based.

I am planning to do in SSRS 2005.
I could use ReportViewer for previewing reports but I need to change the
order of columns in the reoprt once the user changes the order in the grid.
Any ideas how I could programatically change the report from vb.net to
change the order of columns?
Thanks

Browser as Front-End

Hi!

I'm trying to build an app. for my parents' office. They have a small
office (5 PCs), and they currently work with a very old program that's
based on DOS. The program doesn't work well under XP, so they still use
Win 98. They had their network upgraded about a year ago. They had
Microsoft SBS 2000 installed, it includes SQL Server. I've written a
few DB's in Access before, and now I'm just learning how to use SQL.
Before I start work on their app., I have a question:

I know it's possible to create an interface that can be put on their
network and accessed via a browser. How is this done exactly?

It would be very beneficial for me, because it would mean that the new
app. would be platform independent, so that they can upgrade to XP
easily. It would also save us the cost of licensing front-end software
(e.g. Access) for each machine.

Any comments would be appreciated.

Noam Nelke, Israel.When you meant place the SQL Server on a network, you meant placing it
on a central server?

If that is the case, you can have one dedicated server for the SQL
Server and an application server where you can develop your web
application to create an Interface for this DB.
How to create the Interface?
- You can have a Web Server installed on the application server (IIS or
java based web servers) and then write your web code in any of the tons
of languages.

Hope that helps.|||Noam Nelke (NoamNelke@.gmail.com) writes:

That's a question that does not have much to do with SQL Server. Most
people seem to use ASP or ASP .Net. There is also Cold Fusion out there,
and probably a few more possibilities.

On the other hand, browser-based interfaces are often painful to use.

I have a customer who wants to start using repsvcs but is unable at the
moment to go to IE6, they have IE5.
Any chance of getting (parts of) svcs working?
Thanks a lotFor the Report Manager they will need IE 6.0 SP1. For report rendering IE
5.0 with SP2 will do the job. Please review the following topics in the
product documentation:
Software Requirements for Reporting Services
Browser Types Supported by Reporting Services
