I have a MySQL In-App Database in azure, I can connect fine in PHP on a normal webpage, my issue is I am trying to create a webjob, but when ever I try the web job file can't connect to the database and the connection string is empty.
I have tried to connect using the following:
getenv('MYSQLCONNSTR_bridgesConnection');
$_SERVER['MYSQLCONNSTR_localdb'];
Nither of these are bring back a connection string that I am able to use.
I have the code to break down the strings ect, it just that I can't get the database connection string, or find anywhere on how to get it into the webjob.
After my test, the current feasible way is to send http request in webjob to get the connection string you want.
Test step:
Create a new application appsetting,mytest, and create a new webjob to read it.
Find webjob logs.
Because both Application settings and Connection strings are derived from App Config, I think they cannot be read by ConfigurationManager.AppSettings, so the rest api method is used to get the parameters.
Then I create a Connection strings,
Get connection strings by rest api.
You can try it by yourself.
Connect to MySQL:
In Azure App services access the specific App Services you created
Then click on MySQL In App
In the MySQL In App pane, click on Manage to access phpAdmin
It’ll pop open a new window with the phpMyAdmin tool. Notice at the top of the window it’ll display the IP and port number your database is running on
Get your port number from the phpMyAdmin tool,
Access MySQL username and password:
To get your username and password. This information is in the MYSQLCONNSTR_localdb.ini file in d:\home\data\mysql as displayed in the MySQL In App pane earlier.
To get this file, the best way is to go to Advanced Tools on the blade for your App Service.
You will find Advanced Tools under Development Tools
Under Development Tools, Click on Advanced Tools
In the Advanced Tools pane, click on Go in the Pane.
This will open Kudu Services in a new tab
In Kudu Services, click on Debug console at the top and choose CMD.
This will take you to the path and you’re GUI file list will load above with the console window below.
Clicking on data folder in the GUI file list, will display aspnet and mysql folder.
Click on mysql to access location for MYSQLCONNSTR_localdb.ini
Here you can download the file, open it with Notepad and get your username and password from the connection string stored inside.
You can also click on Edit in the GUI to view your password and username details, the content on edit looks like this
Database=databasename;Data Source=127.0.0.1;User Id=username;Password=password

am trying to create an standalone desktop application in flutter which uses mysql as local database.
my problem is when i need to use database from my application i need to open mysql command line client and enter my password to start service( or open connection).
In simple term whenever i open my desktop application mysql should be ready to use. how can i achieve this?
I have tried starting mysql as windows service . Is it the answer which i should follow?
I followed it. But it didn't work for me..
during installation of mysql in windows you'll get the option to start mysql as windows service. if you don't get you can follow starting myswl as windows service.
after this step open mysql installer-community from searchbar.
Look for "MySQL server" and click on Reconfigure
Click on "Next" until you reach the "Authentification Method" page
On the "Authentification Method" page check the second option "Use Legacy Authentication Method"
Then follow the steps given by the Windows installer until the end.
now you could directly connect to database and perform actions without creating it's local instance or without even opening mysql command line client or workbench.
I'm working on integrating a report into a browser, and I get this error:
An error has occurred during report processing. (rsProcessingAborted)
Cannot create a connection to data source 'dsFederatedSample_SurveyLevel_STG'. (rsErrorOpeningConnection)
For more information about this error navigate to the report server on the local server machine, or enable remote errors
Does this have to do with SQL vs Windows authentication?
First thing I would try is to get a bit more information on the error - that's a pretty generic message.
You could enable remote errors as per the error message and replicate the error for more information.
Or check the Report Server error logs to see what error was logged.
%programfiles%\Microsoft SQL Server\<SQL Server Instance>\Reporting Services\LogFiles\
The next step would be to connect as the Data Source user to the database, run any code/stored procedures that the report is using with the same parameters you're using when running the report, and see if any errors occur. Make sure the account you are using has permission and that you have entered the name and password correctly in the Data Source.
In SQL Server 2008 in addition to the above two options you have a third option to make this setting through SQL Server Management Studio.
1.Start Management Studio and connect to Report Server Instance (make sure you select 'Reporting Services' server type).
2.Right click on the ReportServer and Select Properties
3.Click Advanced
4.In EnableRemoteErrors, select True.
5.Click OK.
I had the same issue "Cannot create a connection to data source...Login failed for user.." on Windows 8.1, SQL Server 2014 Developer Edition and Visual Studio 2013 Pro. All solutions offered above by other Stackoverflow Community members did not work for me.
So, I did the next steps (running all Windows applications as Administrator):
VS2013 SSRS: I converted my Data Source to Shared Data Source (.rds) with Windows Authentication (Integrated Security) on the Right Pane "Solution Explorer".
Original (non-shared) Data Source (on the Left Pane "Report Data") got "Don't Use Credentials".
On the Project Properties, I set for "Deployment" "Overwrite DataSources" to "True" and redeployed the Project.
After that, I could run my report without further requirements to enter Credentials. All Shared DataSources were deployed in a separate Directory "DataSources".
In my case, this was due to using Integrated Windows Authentication in my data sources while developing reports locally, however once they made it to the report manager, the authentication was broke because the site wasn't properly passing along my credentials.
The simple fix is to hardcode a username/password into your datasource.
The harder fix is to properly impersonate/delegate your windows credentials through the report manager, to the underlying datasource.
The issue is because your data source is not setup properly, to do that please verify your data source connection, in order to do that first navigate to Report Service Configuration Manager through
clicking on the start -> Start All -> Microsoft SQL Server ->Configuration Tool -> “Report Service Configuration Manager”
The open Report Manager URL and then navigate to the Data Source folder, see in the picture below
Then Create a Data Source or configure the one that is already there by right click on your database source and select "Manage" as is shown below
Now on the properties tab, on your left menu, fill out the data source with your connection string and username and password, after that click on test connection, and if the connection was successful, then click "Apply"
Navigate to the folder that contains your report in this case "SurveyLevelReport"
And Finally set your Report to the Data Source that you set up previously, and click Apply
if you use null values in your stored procedure, you will need to set the parameters to accept null values. That worked for me.
In my case I had in one report many different datasets to DB and Analysis Services Cube. Looks like that datasets blocked each other and generated such error.
For me helped option "Use single transaction when processing the queries" in the CUBE datasource properties
I had a similar problem, and being the newbie that I am it took me a while to figure out but I learned the user must have a login in SSMS. I created the logins with the following parameters:
Under Server Roles - check sysadmin
Under User Mapping - I selected the database and the report server. For each I checked datareader and datawriter
Under Securables - I checked anything that would allow the user to connect to the database and view anything
I also found that one of the existing logins had denydatareader and denydatawriter checked. Once I removed these it worked.
I'm not saying this is the best way to do it, just what worked for me. Hope this helps
More information will be useful.
When I was faced with the same error message all I had to do was to correctly configure the credentials page of the DataSource(I am using Report Builder 3). if you chose the default, the report would work fine in Report Builder but would fail on the Report Server.
You may review more details of this fix here:

I had the exact same issue.
The cause could be different but in my case, after trying several different things like changing the connection string on the Data Source setup, I found that this was the infamous 'double hop' issue (more info here).
To solve the problem, the following two options are available (as per one of the responses from the hyperlink):
Change the Report Server service to run under a domain user account, and register a SPN for the account.
Map Built-in accounts HTTP SPN to a Host SPN.
Using option 1, you need to select 'Windows' credentials instead of database credentials to overcome the double hop that happens while authentication.
I am trying to configure ssrs on a server and when I try to create the ReportServer and ReportServerTempDB I get the following error:
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Directory lookup for the file "D:\microsoft sql server\data\ReportServer.mdf" failed with the operating system error 3(The system cannot find the path specified.).
I have tried changing the default data directory by right-clicking on the server in Object explorer then Properties>Database Settings then setting the paths here but I still get the error.
It looks like you don't have permissions to write to the folder you are specifying.
You need to make sure that the service account SQL Server is running under has write permissions on the folder path you are trying to write to.
Edit:
Use the following steps:
//SqlExpress
1.Click the Windows Start button, and then click Run. The Run dialog box appears.
2.Type Services.msc into the Open field, and then click OK. The Services
panel appears:
3.Right-click the SQL Server (SqlEx[ress) service, and then click Properties from the shortcut menu. The SQL Server (SqlExpress) Properties (Local Computer) dialog box appears:
4.On the Log On tab, select Local System account for the Log on as option.
5.Press Apply and then press OK on the dialog box that appears.
6.Click on the General tab and then press Stop the stop the service, and Start to restart the SqlExpress service.
7.Press OK and close the services Console.
8.Launch SqlExpress and attempt to now restore the database.

I get the following error when trying to run reports:
The current action cannot be completed. The user data source credentials do not meet the requirements to run this report or shared dataset. Either the user data source credentials are not stored in the report server database, or the user data source is configured not to require credentials but the unattended execution account is not specified. (rsInvalidDataSourceCredentialSetting)
By the way I am running it from VS2010 with SQL Server 2008 Reporting Services.
How do I solve this issue?
Yes, I've seen this. You can set the Credential and Connection Information such that a report is run impersonating the unattended user account. This article explains how to set up this type of report running. This setup is especially useful if you want to use the credentials inside a dynamic connection string (for example when you need to insert the credentials through a parameter).
If you don't want to run using the unattended user account, you should review your DataSource and connection string as defined in the report. Perhaps play around with the settings and different configurations for the datasource to create a different setup. The above links should be a start for some documentation.
In my case, it was because of some deployment parameters.
Go to Project Property by Right-clicking at the Project name in Solution Explorer and select Properties.
In Configuration Properties > General, change OverwriteDatasets and OverwriteDataSources in Deployment section to True for both parameters.
Click OK.
in my case, replacing linked server connections with local (fetched from remote locations and stored in local tables)data connections helped. we also checked this for ALL subreports/linked reports and it worked fine.
This happened to me today, it was because I was using the wrong datasource in my report. So I changed the datasource manually in Report manager and it worked. I guess another choice is to redeploy your report with the correct datasource.
This happened to me today. I am using Visual Studio 2019 for creating the reports for SQL Server 2014.
One of my reports had an embedded data source, but it was unconfigured/not configured properly. (You can see embedded data sources in the "Report data" pane under "data sources").
However, the embedded data source wasn't actually being used. I created the embedded data source earlier for debugging and forgot about it.
After deleting the unused embedded data source, the error went away.
This is from Microsoft:here
User Action
Change the settings for the current report so that it can run unattended, and then try to create the subscription or other scheduled operation again. Use the following steps to configure a report to run unattended:
1) Go to the Data Sources properties page of the report that you want to automate.
2) For the Connect Using option, select Credentials stored securely in the report server.
3) In User Name and Password, type credentials that can be used to access the database. If you are using SQL Server as the data source, the user name must be valid for both logging on to the server and for accessing the database that contains the data for the report.
4) If the user name and password are credentials for a Windows account, select Use as Windows Credentials. If the credentials are for a SQL Server user login, do not select this check box.
Do not select the check box Impersonate the authenticated user after a connection has been made to the data source, regardless of authentication type. This option cannot be used for reports that run unattended.
