There are about 15 columns in my report file in birt eclipse. I have been facing issue of data truncating/ column cutting while exporting to pdf. Is there any way we can avoid truncation and show full content in pdf or can suggest any alternative for this problem
You should use the following options (assuming you are using the POJO or OSGI runtime) and task is a RunAndRenderTask or a RenderTask:
PDFRenderOption pdfOptions = new PDFRenderOption(options);
pdfOptions.setOption(IPDFRenderOption.PAGE_OVERFLOW, IPDFRenderOption.OUTPUT_TO_MULTIPLE_PAGES);
pdfOptions.setOption(IPDFRenderOption.PDF_TEXT_WRAPPING, true);
pdfOptions.setOption(IPDFRenderOption.PDF_WORDBREAK, true);
task.setRenderOption(options);
before calling task.render() or task.run() depending on task's class.
In older releases of BIRT, PDF_WORBREAK was called PDF_HYPHENATION IIRC.
This option caused words that don't fit into a single line to break, eg.
supercalif
ragilistic
Note that is is not true hyphenation, which would mean to break between syllables. That's why the option was renamed.
I have a SSRS dashboard that has a calender image on it and under the image properties I have an action to Go to Report and a specific report was listed. Depending on the measure the user is looking at in the dashboard when they click it a 12 or 24 month trend chart will load. It works fine when I just have it set to go to a specific report but when I put an expression into the Specify a Report option I get a weird error that I have been researching but the error seems possibly misleading so I thought I would just put the expression I am using out here to see if anyone has any direction for me as it seems like what I am trying to do is simple but I may be searching wrong. Thanks in advance!
I have the expression opening the 24 month chart of the definition type is CSH and eventually it will check for other conditions but I wanted one to work before I went on.
=IIF(Fields!MEAS_DEFINITION_TYPE = "CSH","FITDash_Trend24mo.rdl",Nothing)
I get this error and it started up after I added the expression above. The datatype of MEAS_DEFINTION_TYPE is nvarchar(25):
Severity Code Description Project File Line Suppression State
Error [rsCompilerErrorInExpression] The ActionInfo.Action.Drillthrough.ReportName expression for the image 'Calendar25' contains an error: [BC30311] Value of type 'Microsoft.ReportingServices.ReportProcessing.ReportObjectModel.Field' cannot be converted to 'String'.
Common mistake, you have forgotten to specify the .Value property of the field
Try
=IIF(Fields!MEAS_DEFINITION_TYPE.Value = "CSH","FITDash_Trend24mo.rdl",Nothing)
Really hope that somebody will be able to help with this as I'm near losing my mind trying to understand why this happens.
I'm getting different results when scanning the same value in a Code 39 barcode using a regular USB barcode scanner and using my phone camera.
When scanning the value of 482168 using the barcode scanner, I get a value of 142673096 pasted into notepad;
When scanning the value of 482172 using the barcode scanner, I get a value of 142673122 pasted into notepad;
Values 482169 and 482171 are pasted correctly.
I thought initially that the problem was with the app that generates these barcodes, however, the same is happening when these are generated here https://barcode.tec-it.com/en/Code39FullASCII?data=482168
I thought that the length and width of the barcode may have been the problem, but adjusting them did not have any effect.
Has anyone ever stumbled upon anything similar and could suggest why these would be read and encoded differently?
I found this problem to be really interesting, so I compared the various barcode types to see what could be causing the scanner to mis-identify the barcodes. It turns out that Italian Pharmacode (also known as Code 32) is an exact match. Code32 is actually code39 using a compression scheme.
Here is 482168 in code39:
And 142673096 in code32:
It looks like your scanner is prioritizing code32 over code39. So you just need to disable code32 in your scanner.
I'm using the strapi 3.0.0-beta.15
DB - mongo 4.2.2
After updating one of model fields - which is type of 'text', it is cutting the last three chars and set it to '000'. Saw this only if there are numbers at field.

After saving
Did anyone have stacked with such problems yet?
This issue has been fixed in the last version of Strapi (at least beta.18)
I suggest you update your application using a migration guide if necessary, or, using the application update guide that is into the documentation.
Here is what I did in a short video - https://www.loom.com/share/23076126176546708f9dcaa7eac1924c
I understand that there is definitely something wrong with my report (e.g. columns missmatcch) and I need to correct it but what I see is the WCF error message that hides actual problem and exactly this hiding irritates me much more than original problem: columns missmatch.
I guess we need to adjust the WCF 'buffer size' and we will get original problem message. But where is the config file?
Text search of "system.serviceModel" in the C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0 doesn't bring good idea...
P.S. Since this is just preview of report I do not think that it is SSRS configuration problem. Problem localised somewhere in DevStudio process or int the DevStudio's internal web server process ...
P.P.S Please help me too improve the question. I see that responders doesn't understand what kind of help I need.
I have encountered multiple "flavors" of this bug in SSRS Preview. It seems the renderer for Preview mode is quite fragile.
There is a simple way to solve this. Ignore the error and attempt to upload the RDL file to your reporting server. The uploader will happily tell you exactly what is wrong with your file - it will tell you exactly what field has a problem and what that problem is. If there are multiple errors, you will get told each and every field and the error associated with each one.
I can create this bogus XML buffer error with any of the following:
Add a new Tablix, start to connect it to a dataset, then cancel out.
Copy/paste some text into a textbox from a MS Word document where one or more lines have a negative right indent (right column end is outside page margin).
Connect a dataset with a varchar(8000) returned value.
Please Check if any of your report items are referencing fields that are not in existing dataset scope.
This indeed worked for me.

I have seen this error when adding a new field to an existing dataset by clicking "Refresh Fields".
The dataset source was a stored procedure. The result was only a few of original fields showed up in the dataset field list and not the new field. If I tried to preview the report I get XML buffer error.
Workaround was to not refresh fields but hit add new field and type the new field name into the dataset properties field last.
Worked fine after that.
I got this error again today.
I had created a table to hold data to replace two slow queries. I changed some names to clean up the process.
I think the error actually means that there are so many problems with my report that the buffer holding the various error messages isn't large enough which leads to the error message.
The size necessary to buffer the XML content exceeded the buffer quota
Of course this should be an easy fix but Microsoft has said that they will not fix it.

EDIT: I've updated my answer based on having fixed the issue.
I'm currently experiencing this problem after having changed multiple stored procedures and updating the dataset names in the SSRS report.
And when I try to run the preview I get the exact same error.
As it turns out, after investigating the issue, the problem was that I had changed the name property of my datasets.
There several places in my report where formulas or expressions use the old name properties of the datasets I renamed. After reverting the dataset names back, I managed to get the real errors like missing fields etc. atcual errors came back after I set my dataset name properties back to what they were.
I only changed the name property back to what it was, the stored procedure names were correctly referring to my renamed stored procedures.
I had this problem when after copying and pasting a tablix, it changed CDbl in a formula to Microsoft.ReportingServices.RdlObjectModel.ExpressionParser.VBFunctions.CDbl. I opened up the XML and removed all instances of "Microsoft.ReportingServices.RdlObjectModel.ExpressionParser.VBFunctions." and the report then worked.
For a working report, when I tried to add a column it gave me this error. I edited the .rdl file using notepad++. After SSRS prompt to reload the change from disk, it worked without issues.
I got this error after copying my Custom Code to Visual Studio for hightlighting the code for better readability. Well, Visual Studio added class definitions to the beginning and end of the file. After editing code, I pasted it back to report Custom Code, then got this error. Fix was just to remove class definitions (Public Class Class1 and End Class) from Custom Code. So, check your Custom Code also (if any).
I got this error after adding some new parameters to an existing report.
For some reason when I created the parameters first then modified the Dataset to use the new parameters I got the error, but when I modified the Dataset first then added the parameters second and I did not get the error.
This seemed like very strange behavior to me so I tested it by restoring the report from repository and repeating the process three times with each method, and had identical behavior every time.
I am also facing this problem. I solve this Find and replace
Microsoft.VisualBasic.Interaction.iif ==> iif
Microsoft.ReportingServices.RdlObjectModel.ExpressionParser.VBFunctions.cdbl
==> cdbl
I hope this may helps someone. Thanks
Possible root causes
Parameter name is incorrect(case/order)
Accessing non-existing property.
and many more...
Solution: To get the exact error message are
Deploy SSRS report and find the error : Suggested by "Kim Crosser" already
Remove the section(SSRS/Report content) temporarily you feel is error free to free space in buffer so that you can get actual error message. Later add sections back to the page(removed earlier).
I had the same error message and it was totally caused by my doing. It's a bit embarrassing, but if it helps someone out then great! I had accidentally copied my dataset query that included a small sub select statement within it, which I was using to check parameter/variable values.
Another solution is to open the .rdl file in Report Builder 3.0 (as opposed to Visual Studio) and try to preview it. I found this gave me the details of the error, although if more than one error is present it only shows the first.
I previously binded a TextBox to
Fields!FieldName
and fixed it with
Fields!FieldName.Value
With that said, and with the other answers posted as well, this error happens in different flavors. My issue was fixed after I had the field property "Value" included.
