I am implementing an SSRS project but I have issues with the deployment phase.
My requirements
Deploy the report to the reporting server
Allow Users to access the reports from a custom web application.
Users should access the reports with any browser
I don't have a sharepoint/Domain authentication so I am using a custom web app
My Challenges
After deploying the reports to the report server, If I try to access the Report Manager Url from my client system I receive an prompt requesting for the Windows Login Credentials of my Reporting Server.
I want disable this prompt.
Please I need your help.
Thanks
You need to edit the data source of that report (or of the shared data source if it uses one) and choose the option "Credentials stored securely in the report server", adding the credentials appropriate to the data source there.
The problem you're having is that the default data source authentication (as with SQL Server itself) is Windows integrated authentication, and that's why you're getting prompted for credentials from a browser connection.
See here for an overview on how to store credentials with the data source.
In your web application's web.config add identity impersonate="true" and SSRS 2012 does not use IIS.

I am running into an issue with my deployment of SSRS RDL report files to my report server instance which is running on Azure.
The error I get when I deploy my reports is:
I have confirmed that I am able to access the report service URL from my web browser(it brings up the FTP-style directory listing of reports) but still receive this error.
This leads me to believe that I am unable to deploy to this server because of a permissions issue however I am unsure if I am able work around this as I tried going on the report server and creating permissions for my username but since the SSRS instance is not on my work server's domain(its hosted on azure) how would I go about creating permissions for my windows workstation user account(using my corporate domain) on the Azure SSRS instance?
This is quite frustrating as everytime I wish to deploy report changes I must manually copy the RDLs to the report server and upload them using the SSRS web interface one by one.
Any help with this issue would be greatly appreciated!
According to documentation you'll have to do the steps listed below. This is called the classic deployment model, but they recommend using the Resource Manager instead:
Quoted from here:
SQL Server Data Tools: Remote: On your local computer, create a Reporting Services project in SQL Server Data Tools that contains Reporting Services reports. Configure the project to connect to the web service URL.
Create a .VHD hard drive that contains reports and then upload and attach the drive.
Create a .VHD hard drive on your local computer that contains your reports.
Create and install a management certificate.
Upload the VHD file to Azure using the Add-AzureVHD cmdlet Create and upload a Windows Server VHD to Azure.
Attach the disk to the virtual machine.
I am trying to deploy my webapp VS2015 RC1 DNX 451. Even when I validate connection and run publish I get error
Severity Code Description Project File
Error Error Code: ERROR_USER_UNAUTHORIZED
Error More Information: Connected to the remote computer ("crocus.arvixe.com") using the Web Management Service, but could not authorize. Make sure that you are using the correct user name and password, that the site you are connecting to exists, and that the credentials represent a user who has permissions to access the site. Learn more at: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=221672#ERROR_USER_UNAUTHORIZED.
Error Error: The remote server returned an error: (401) Unauthorized.
Googling the issue and even trying to view host forum just says make sure username and password is correct. I am getting nowhere trying various settings. Any ideas how to debug the issue?
I am using Arvixe.com as host.
You should contact Arvixe.com. They likely have some odd configuration on their servers but I would suspect they can help you resolve the issue.
Arvixe does not support Web Deploy anymore. Once they move you to their new servers Web Deploy won't be available to you. In Visual Studio you can set up a Publish with FTP instead of Web Deploy. If you're used to Web Deploy publishing your database changes, then you'll need to do those yourself with SQL scripts. Entity Frameworks has an option to produce a SQL script for a migration, so you can use that to publish your EF database changes.
I have setup a secure(Kerberos) Oozie environment in CentOS 6.3 using CDH 4.1.2. I am able to view the Oozie web console from CentOS machine which is hosted in server. But is there a way to view the webconsole from my local Windows machine.
I have tried creating a HTTP principal with my windows machine as hostname. I am able to get a valid ticket for HTTP principal. But when I open the Oozie Web Console, I get the following error
org.apache.hadoop.security.authentication.client.AuthenticationException: GSSException: Defective token detected (Mechanism level: GSSHeader did not find the right tag)
Am I missing something. Help me guys.
Thanks,
Vishnu Ganth
This error occurs because your browser sends request for NTLM authentication instead of kerberos.
In internet explorer follow below steps,
go to Internet Options
In security tab, select Local intranet.
Click Custom Level in the below, Make sure Automatic logon only in intranet zone under the User Authentication section.
In the Internet Options, select Advanced tab and make sure enable Integrated Windows Authentication selected under security section.
Once the above steps done, it will work on both internet explorer and google chrome.
If you are accesing it from the Cross realm, your widows-based clients should know the KDC location to create proper SPNEGO token. You need either create a separate policy in your AD for that type of users or you can manually from command line add mappings in client machine's registeries so that they would know about your Hadoop realm KDC:
ksetup /addkdc HADOOP.DOMAIN.COM hadoop.nodewithkdc.com
ksetup /addhosttorealmmap hadoop.nodewithkdc.com HADOOP.DOMAIN.COM
I have created a simple MVC3 site that displays data from a table in an Azure database. I have created a cloud service to run the site in and can publish it successfully. I have also run the site successfully in the Azure emulator.
My problem is that when I select the page that displays the data there is an error as I get the default error page. I think I have the db connections set correctly but I cannot see any logs. So my questions are:
Where are the IIS logs? I would like to see what the error is.
Are there any other logs/diagnostics that I can use to see what the problem is?
Thanks.
By default the only place where something might be logged is in the Windows Application Event Log. You'll need to Remote Desktop to the cloud service instance (Connect from the Instances page in the Azure Management Portal) and then open Event Viewer.
The IIS logs themselves should be available too although as per normal IIS logs these won't contain exception details. Use IIS Manager > Application > Logging when logged on to the instance to find the location.
As suggested by Magnus, you should use something like Windows Azure Diagnostics and/or ELMAH and/or log4net to log exception and diagnostic information to somewhere accessible for troubleshooting.
I suggest you use Windows Azure Diagnostics to collect your logs.

I managed my databases in vs10 with SSDT(SQL Server Data Tools). But after creating a login acoount like "CREATE LOGIN netease WITH PASSWORD = '854032390'", and I tried to add a server, problem happened-login failed. I looked for solutions through the Internet and I want to know how can I change Authentication Mode with SQL Server Data Tools in VS10?
Just edit the connect string in the publish profile.
