Windows 10: SQL Report Builder 3.0

Abhisek.Das · Sep 16, 2019

Hi Team,

I have an user using SQL report builder to extract report from one of our intranet applications.

The Report builder was working all along but suddenly has stopped working and throwing an error

“Connection failed. Unable to connect to the server that is specified in the URL, ‘ my URL ’ . Make sure that the server is running, url is correct and you have permission to use that server ”

Could you guide when & Why this kind of error occurs and how we can get this resolved.

Regards,

Abhisek Das <*** Email address is removed for privacy ***>

What’s new in Mobile Reports in SQL Server 2016 SP1

In our last post around SQL Server 2016 SP1, we promised to do a post about some enhancements we’ve made to mobile reports in the latest release. We’ll highlight two major items we’ve updated and also provide the full change list of updates and fixes for mobile reports that many of you have asked for to date.

Improved support for dates from MDX queries

One major item was improved recognition of dates from MDX queries without using the currently published workaround, which was required when using the MDX Query Designer in Report Builder. This has been fixed in SQL Server 2016 SP1 when used in tandem with the latest release of Report Builder (or SQL Server Data Tools). To try this new functionality out, create a simple MDX query using the Query Designer that includes a date field from your data model. When you consume that shared dataset with Mobile Report Publisher, it will properly recognize the date field from your query without an additional calculated measure being required.

User-friendly field names

Another improvement is the ability to display field names from your datasets without underscores. Previously, when a data field name contained a space, Mobile Report Publisher would add underscores automatically to the field in the data preview tab AND on your report canvas. This wasn’t the best looking way to show field names to end users.

Now, when you add the same item to the report canvas, the system will remove the underscores automatically and display the name properly on the reports.

In addition to these changes, we’ve provided a full list of updates and bug fixes we’ve made for mobile reports in an Excel Workbook you can download and view.

SQL Server 2017 Reporting Services Release Candidate now available

This week, we made available a Release Candidate of SQL Server 2017. Alongside it, we’re pleased to make available a Release Candidate of SQL Server 2017 Reporting Services.

Download SQL Server 2017 Reporting Services (RC)

As we described with the release of CTP 2.1, we moved Reporting Services installation from the SQL Server installer to a separate installer. This is a packaging change, not a product change; access to SQL Server Reporting Services is still included with your SQL Server license. The new installation process keeps our packages lean and enables customers to deploy and update Reporting Services with zero impact on your SQL Server deployments and databases.

(Looking for all the capabilities of SQL Server 2017 Reporting Services, plus web-based and mobile viewing of Power BI Reports? Check out Power BI Report Server, and be sure to read “A closer look at Power BI Report Server.”)
