I've my reports previously on SharePoint site.
I recently deployed my reports to the Report Server.
In the reports there're expressions on the URL Actions part in Text Box properties where expressions have been applied based on the parameters values.
After deploying my reports to the report server and clicking on one of the value where actions have been applied i get the error.
Error:
The item 'BC/Report/get.rdl' cannot be found. (rsItemNotFound)
I've tried placing the link of the report directly in the expressions but that's not working either. I think there needs some review in the expression.
Expressions looks like this:
= IIF(Parameters!ForEmail.Value <>
TRUE,Globals!ReportServerUrl,Parameters!ReportURLSub.Value) & "?" &
Globals!ReportFolder & "/get.rdl"
Thank you in Advance and sorry if explanation is not enough.
did you tried static url per hand in browser? does it work.
If yes try adding this parameters as Parameters!ReportURLSub.Value) in Textbox and see if it results desired result.
Also check if Globals!ReportServerUrl returns correct value
If yes can create this url whith your parameters in a Textbook static and see what result you get.
If all these steps pass then move to your last step, creating as a Action.

I'm trying to run an SSRS report on the server which takes a parameter as input. When I enter input in the textbox it displays the result. Also works fine in the visual studio BIDS.
But, I want to pass parameter in the URL and see the report result which is not working.
I have seen solutions to other similar SO posts SSRS passing Report Parameters
which mentioned checking the dataset parameters properties.
My parameter name is #TestId and value is set to =Parameters!TestId.Value
So, it is correct as suggested in the solution.
Now I try o access my report using URL patterns as below
Just giving parameter and value
http://testssrs14/Reports/Pages/Report.aspx?ItemPath=%2fReports%2fTest%2fTestReport%2fTest+Report&TestId=1234
using command = render
http://testssrs/Reports/Pages/Report.aspx?ItemPath=%2fReports%2fTest%2fTestReport%2fTest+Report&rs:Command=Render&TestId=1234
when I hit enter it doesn't throw any error in both cases but just shows a blank page instead of the result of the report. Is there anything I'm missing?
Please use this URL instead and try
http://testssrs14/ReportServer/
And navigate to the report that you're looking for.
When you get to the report page, then pass the parameter value.
&<Parameter Name> = <value>
In your case
&TestId=1234
Add this at the end of the URL.
Let me know if you need any further clarification.
Based on your comments, Here's some detail.. though I guess it must be figured out as of now..
Here goes the report server:
and below goes the Report Manager..
and in VS Data Tools or BIDS, the same is set as in Projects->Properties below
So, you got to try your URL parameters in ReportServer, not in Report Manager.
What you had been accessing so far is Report Manager..
Hope it makes some sense, now : ) ,
Thus, your link should be something like http://testssrs14/Reportserver/..
This link is also a good source!
I am trying to use the custom code option to pull down the querystring and set the parameters for the report all in the custom code. So I may have a url such as:
http://mywebsite.com/index.aspx?ProjectID=1
I would want the code in the SSRS custom code to pull down that 1 and put it in the parameters for the report. So when I run the report it shows the data with the ProjectID of 1.
Is this possible to do in Reporting services? If so, how would one go about doing this. Thanks for any help I have seriously been trying to figure this our for weeks.
Thanks!
SSRS can parse a parameter value from the URL as long as it's in the format parameter=value. See this msdn article
The sample URL in your question doesn't look like a report server URL, so (like bhupendra indicates) it's hard to know exactly what you're doing.
Full error from Preview window in Visual Studio '08 (BIDS): "An error occurred during local report processing. Object reference not set to an instance of an object."
There are no further errors/warnings detailed in the Error List or Output windows.
Background: On this report I am using a table to display a sub-report [x] number of times, dependant on the number of related objects that exist in the SQL database. That is to say that the sub-report is set within one of the cells (the only cell) of the table, in a row that repeats for each item returned in a dataset.
Removing the sub-report allows the master report to compile and run, so I feel the issue is related to the arrangement of the sub-report. If the sub-report only displays once, then the master report compiles and runs fine, it is only when a second instance is required that the issue arises.
When testing the sub-report separately, it compiles and runs when given the parameters for each instance it is being asked to render from the master report. So I can rule out the idea that the data for the second instance is causing it to fail (in some div-by-0 type way).
Given the lack of detail from the error and that the sub-report works on it's own, I do not understand why this is happening.
Does anyone have any ideas for debugging or suggested solutions?
Thanks
Brian
tldr: Master report fails when a sub-report repeats more than once.
I figured out a solution. The sub-report is being passed 4 parameters, one of these had a value referring to the value a table-cell on the master report. Changing this parameter to be the value of the expression that was setting that table-cell fixed the issue. I have no idea why this is a solution, but it is.
In more detail: [table_cell_a] had an expression computing it's value.
[parameter_a] for the sub report was set as "=ReportItems("[table_cell_a]").Value", when I changed the expression for [parameter_a] to mirror the expression for [table_cell_a], everything worked again.
This is messed up, and I can't even begin to understand why it behaves like this. If [table_cell_a] was not being computed before the calls were made to the sub-reports, I could understand. But if that was the case, how come the report worked when there was only one sub-report?
If anyone can provide an explanation, I would be most grateful.

Brian,
I'm having a similar issue with charts imbedded in a Tablix. I found this article that seems to address the issue, although I have not gotten the server upgraded yet to actually test it:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2639301
Hope that helps.

I was getting the similar error after changing the names of reports in my project even though I changed all the updated report names in the Action property.
An error occurred during local report processing. Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
I found a solution by running the dataset of linked report providing the parameter values manually.
I am not sure what difference it made by running the dataset of linked report manually but it solved my problem and I am no longer getting this error.
Thanks

Just sharing. In my case, it was not a sub-report. I had the same message when I was accessing a drill-through-report. Apparently, at the "Action: Go to report" > "Specify a report:", I have wrongly pasted the full name of the report with the extension. Removing the ".rdl" extension solved my problem.
Addendum: If the drill-through report name is part of an expression then the .rdl extension is necessary for it to work when hosted in SharePoint. That prevents it working in preview mode, as you've found. Solution is to code to avoid having to use an expression for the report name.
Copy the Dataset and Queries.
Create new report or copy paste Tablix to new report. You will not get the error again.
I had to remove the SubReport and add it again. Then it worked.
I had the same error when I changed the name of the report I drilled to. I did change the name in the action expression to the new name via the properties > Action > Go to Report > (...) > Expression, but that apparently didn't take. When I opened the text box > Properties dialog window instead of using the Properties pane, and changed the drilled to report name within that window, it solved my issue.
I want to display a Microstrategy report on a web page The report needs a single parameter
I have a report that has a (local) filter which I'd like to able to parameterize. Not the whole filter string but just the numeric value that the report filters on.
I know that I can use a prompt to put a value into a report, but I need to do this from an HTML document which, I understand, can't be done with a prompt.
Is there another way to do pass a parameter from an HTML document into the filter of report in the HTML document?
Kind Regards,
Barrie
If you're using a URL to the report, you can pass a prompt answer in as a parameter, specifically valuePromptAnswers.
TN15734 on the MicroStrategy Knowledgebase gives a full example, if that isn't clear enough.
I have a report (in SQL Server Reporting Services 2008) that has multiple parameters, but works very well. However, one of my users (my boss, of course) wants to be able to e-mail a link to the report using the parameters they have specified. They do not want to send the report itself, but just a link to it. However, as you set parameter values and click "View Report", the URL shown in the browser does not contain the parameter values in the querystring (just the default report path), and therefore is not really usable.
I know that this functionality is possible, because if I add a subscription to the report, and check the "include link" checkbox, I get an e-mail with a link like this:
http://servername/ReportServer/Pages/ReportViewer.aspx?%2fRoot+Action+Analysis&ShowChart=2&sPN=&iDept=All&rs%3aParameterLanguage=en-US
Is there a server setting that could be changed to show the FULL URL (with parameters) as users generate new reports?
Thank in advance!
I don't know how to change the settings so that the full URL is shown.
As a workaround you could add a textbox to the bottom of your report, and build the URL yourself in an expression by concatenating Globals!ReportServerURL, Globals!ReportFolder, Globals!ReportName, Globals!Language and your various Parameters.
