SSRS Reports browser compatibility issues - google-chrome

I am using SSRS 2008 to deploy couple of reports to my server. Everything runs fine on IE. But Chrome and Safari does not display any reports. I can see the ‘Reports’ folder but when I click on the reports inside the folder, it displays nothing, whereas IE runs without any error. Talking about error, Firefox also display error on more complex reports…
I have gone through every solution on this forum
SSRS 2008 R2 - SSRS 2012 - ReportViewer: Reports are blank in Safari and Chrome
I tried appending function pageLoad() too but no success…
I am not sure I can use javascript anywhere because all I am doing is deploying the reports to my localhost/reportserver and then I browse to localhost/reports to see if the reports are deployed.

Check to make sure JavaScript is enabled in the browser.
I still had some trouble so I installed IE tab for Chrome:

Here is some additional information on non-IE SSRS browser support:

I placed the solution here:
SSRS 2008 R2 - SSRS 2012 - ReportViewer: Reports in Safari/Chrome but works fine in Firefox/Internet Explorer 8... why?

How to replace IE for managing SSRS 2012 reports

It is no longer possible to install IE from MSFT; the link gives you Edge. Some of our Win10Pro VMs have no IE installed, and can't get the SSRS 2012 Folder or Report "Manage" dropdown fully populated (i.e. download RDF) using Edge or Chrome. The Chrome IE addin evidently tries (fails) to load bits from an assumed installed instance of IE. My workaround is to use other VMs/laptops on the correct domain that still have IE installed. But isn't Edge supposed to support SSRS?
All our other MSSQL is 2019. In my role, I am not in a position to upgrade SSRS, I just have to keep it alive while Nero fiddles.
Right click on the report you want to manage
Click copy address (could vary depending on the browser you use)
Paste the address into a new tab or same tab or text editor (whatever you prefer)
Add the following to the end of the url "&SelectedTabId=PropertiesTab&ViewMode=List" (no quotes)
Hit enter to go to the url
Example:
http://127.0.0.1/Reports/Pages/Report.aspx?ItemPath=%2fTestFolder%2fTestReport&SelectedTabId=PropertiesTab&ViewMode=List

SSRS dropdown parameters won't re-populate

When I access any reports in reportserver, I am able to see the drop-down parameter being populated. However, when I click on the drop-down arrow and click out of it AND then try to re-click on a drop-down parameter, it will no longer load. These parameters aren't relying on any other parameters. They get their values for a dataset.
Since, this is a problem with all the reports, do I need to modify the reportviewer.aspx? Any idea how to fix this issue?
Screenshot (the parameter drop-down pretends to load and then gives up after a second):
I had a similar issue and found a couple of things that might help (depending on what browser and version you are using:
Try adding the report servers URL to the compatibility mode in IE
Try adding the report server URL to your list of trusted sites
If you are running the report server browser on the server itself, try turning off enhanced security mode
Lastly I have noticed that the report server control works very differently in different browsers - try it in Chrome as well as IE

SSRS Chrome/IE Error

We are having issues loading our report server in both IE and Chrome; for some reason, it only works properly in Firefox.
When we try to load it in Chrome, we receive this error:
This webpage is not available
Hide details
The webpage at http://database/reports might be temporarily down or it may have moved permanently to a new web address.
Error code: ERR_INVALID_AUTH_CREDENTIALS
When we try to load it in IE, it circles through the authentication page three times and just dies.
Thanks to anyone with any insight!
It appears that SSO is failing and you might need to register an SPN for your SSRS server:

SQL Server Report Manager report showing export, refresh, data feed buttons on separate lines

When I view a report in Report Manager, the page is displaying Current Page, Export Drop Down, Find|Next, Refresh, and Export to Data Feed buttons on separate lines consuming 25% of the top of page. These buttons should all be on one line as they are when I view the report in Data Tools.
I am running SQL Server 2012. I cannot see a way to configure these items to one line. There is nothing in Site Setting to configure this.
I believe the problem is with Internet Explorer. When I run this report in Firefox version 28, it runs perfectly. When I run it in Internet Explorer 11, I experience the problem.
I found this on the Microsoft site.

We are happy to inform that the problem was fixed in CU8 for SQL Server 2012 Sp1.
Please visit the http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2917531 to get the update.

This did not fix my issue with the toolbar. What I finally did to fix, from Internet Explorer Tools >>> Compatibility View Settings. I added the website for the report server.

Page refresh after postback from UpdatePanel in Sharepoint 2013 (with auth check)

Strange behavior appears when using Updatepanel on Apllication page or usercontrol in Sharepoint 2013.
In FF and Chrome postback leads to full page refresh after small idle between requests (around 30 seconds). Example: we have a page with button and label inside UpdatePanel. We open this page and click the button -> updatepanel refreshes its content without page reload. If we will wait more than 30 seconds and click the button again, page will reload.
In Firebug or Fiddler we can see follow:
1) POST-request from updatepanel to server
2) Response from server will contains
1|#||4|53|pageRedirect||/_login/default.aspx?ReturnUrl=
3) After there will be request to /_login/default.aspx and then redirect to /_windows/default.aspx?ReturnUrl=
4) And then it will be redirected to my initial page.
Users see only page reload.
But if we will wait a long time (around 20 minutes) there will be not page reload and updatepanel refreshes only their content.
This error happens in different environment in defferent domains. We use standart Claims based authentication and Minimal Download Strategy feature is disabled.
In IE this error occurs, but not so often.
I found that error disappears if Form Authentication is disabled in IIS web application (but in this case there are some problems in another pages in portal).
Can anyone help me with this problem. Thanks
The Visual Studio 2012 Designer Code Generator is really screwy for sharepoint. Are you using Visual Studio 2012 by any chance?
If so I strongly recommend upgrading to Visual Studio 2013. Visual Studio 2012 is the Windows Vista of IDE's. Microsoft released 2013 really faster after 2012 to address all of it's issues.
has nothing to do with visual studio, IMHO.
here is a thread about it:
https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/systemcenter/en-US/c33d4a46-87d6-4dbc-a24c-cb8e5f9eb1ea/page-refresh-after-postback-from-updatepanel-in-sharepoint-2013?forum=sharepointdevelopment
pointing to a hotfix:
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2910945
which addresses this issue: "When you browse to a SharePoint 2013 page that contains an UpdatePanel control, the page may be refreshed randomly. Therefore, if you type something in a text field on the page, the text field may become empty."
FYI, I installed it and it didn't resolve my issue, but it might help you.
Yes, this is an authentication configuration issue - means your claims authentication is not set up correctly probably, so the authentication cookie is missing/not sent with our ajax request.
Please update back if this KB resolved it for you, I want to keep track of this issue.
