Reporting has always been one of the dark arts of development. The tools typically seem to do just enough to get you to a certain point, then leave you to find workarounds to solve more complex issues.

When I go to ANY database (System, AdventureWorks*, user) in Managemant Studio, I right-click on the db, select Reports, select Standard Reports, and select Disk Usage.  The disk usage report shows the correct db on top, but always only shows AdventureWorks_Data.mdf when I expand Disk Space Used by Data Files section.  This happens to any db I try.  When I look at Database Properties/Files for that database, the logical and physical file names are correct.

Since the correct files appear in Database Properties/Files, I'm hoping it's just a bug in the report.  Same thing happens if I run a Disk Usage by Table report for ANY database,  The tables for AdventureWorks always only appear,

Hi

In my report, i need join data from both sql server and web service and display that on ssrs report.

is this possible in ssrs ?

Hello all,

I'm working as a intern and have been maintaining a performance monitoring application for my companies servers and wanted to know if "Performance Data Collector" could do the job for us(and that I've spent the last month working on...) I ran across an article(http://www.simple-talk.com/sql/learn-sql-server/sql-server-2008-performance-data-collector/ ) that seemed to describe this tool as pretty much what I've been working on.

Presently we do this:

1. Performance Monitor(perfmon.exe) logs all the performance counters we want and stores them locally on each server.

2. A client service(run on each server we monitor) takes the log files, zips them and periodically transfers them to the logging server.

3. Once on the logging server another service parses the files and bulk uploads them into a SQL Server 2008 R2 Database.

4. A SSAS cube on the logging server then processes all the data and we have our min/max/averages for the various counters.

Can I collect performance data from Windows 2008 servers that do not have SQL Server 2008/2008 R2 installed on them by using the server that is running the collector to pull the information? This would essentially b

Hi,
 I am using a IIS 7.5 on Windows 7. I have a simple application that uses System.Net.WebRequest to POST data to another URL (in fact, the server side URL is on my local computer and it is hosted in IIS 7.5).

  1.  The problem is the server does not save data from client although on the client side codes when I debug and I see the OK message return from the code line

   response.StatusDescription; // this has value of "OK"

2. How can I debug the server code side where to receive the request from client side who posts the data ?

The following is the codes for client who posts data using System.Net.WebRequest, and codes for server side who received posted data to save to database.

Client side codes: // also run on my local computer

public string PostIntegrationXml(XmlDocument xmlSubmitDoc)

Hi,

• I created a Report using Business Intelligence Studio. Its working working well, i can able to view records. But when i try to deploy the report an error occurs specifying that "A connection could not be made to the report server http://localhost/ReportServer. (Microsoft Report Designer)".
• I open the IIS 7 and find out virtual directories "Reports" and "ReportServer" are available.
• I check on the browser and type "http://localhost/reports".  I find the browser direct to this url: http://localhost/reports/Pages/Folder.aspx and find error specifying the following one:

         Error:The report server is not responding. Verify that the report server is running and can be accessed from this computer.

• when i type http://localhost/reportmanager, i found the error:

  HTTP Error 404.0 - Not Found

  The resource you are looking for has been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable.
