• SQL Server Report Server (MSSQLSERVER) cannot connect to the report server database

  I am running SQL Reporting Services and SQL Server 2005 on a Windows 2003 server. The configuration has been unchanged for approx. 3 weeks. Suddenly today, reports being accessed via an ASP.NET 2.0 application (on Windows 2003 Server with IIS 6) using a SOAP call to the reportserver became inaccessable. End users received the following error: Message: An error occurred during rendering of the report. ---> An error occurred during rendering of the report. ---> An error occurred during rendering of the report. ---> An error occurred during rendering of the report. ---> Attempted to read or write protected memory.

• Community Chat Virtual Intelligence, AI

  People we need to talk about this. When people talk about this, they say its based on storing and retriving information. The learning process for the computer would be to save as much information as possible from its interactions with the environment. But when I think about this, I feel its a restriction to learning. Consider this, when we are small adding two numbers 2 and 3, would be done on fingers or on a peace of paper. But when we grow up we dont use the fingers or paper. So my point is: The input(add 2 and 3) remains the same, also the output(5) remains the same. So where did the process of learning go. Thus, I would suggest that a machine should not only learn and save in information, it should also learn to proce ...Show All

• SQL Server Visual Studio 2005 Tools for SQL Server Compact Ed.

  Hi, I've got a big problem reinstalling the just released VS2005 Tools: I've installed them, but then I've deinstalled them to first deinstall RC1 and install the just released RTM/W( ) of the runtime. But since then I was not able to reinstall the VS2005 Tools: The installer just says, that a required program for the upgradepatch is missing or another version is installed. I've also tried to reinstall SP1 of VS 2005, with the same result. BTW, I just wanna mention, that it is very complex to look through the new released Compact Edition releases. For example for the runtime it is required that the english release is installed before another localized release. But the localized releases are not called "Language Packs" (what ...Show All

• .NET Development Writing to an INI file........

  Hi, I'm a .NET c# newbie....Can someone explain to me what the parameters used in the IniWriteValue function stand for Section, key n all dat.I want to call the function but i don't know the parameters to use.ThanksT IniWriteValue I've got to ask... where are you getting that method from as it is not a standard .NET or Win32 API call.

• SQL Server Stopping and Starting Pull Subscription

  Say we need to replicate between 2 databases using transactional replication So we create a publication on the first server and initialse the publication agent so that it takes a snapshot and starts the log reader to capture the transactions being keyed into it. Then say we create a pull subscription from the second database but lets say we assume we already have the data from thepublication database already in it so no need to app,ly a snapshot over it, when the pull subscription starts we assume that only transactions in the log reader that occured AFTER the pull subscription was started would be applied. Is this correct Then say we need to stop the pull subscription for a short period then start it again (let say so that we ...Show All

• SQL Server Add Reporting Services to Trusted Accounts

  I installed SQL 2005 SP2 and RS add-in for Sharepoint to a WSS 3.0 site. I get the error: 'A connection to the server cannot be established' when I try to use the sharepoint account set up for this purpose. It is in the farm administrators, and has the required permissions when I check the database. Are there any other recommended troubleshooting tips that I can do Thanks. Dan FYI - I resolved the problem by adding the account to the local group WSS_RESTRICTED_WPG. This account needs to be in the Local Administrator's group, and the groups starting with WSS. ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Unable to open IChannelListener

  I'm trying to use the WCF adapter for BizTalk (I know this isn't supported by MS) and I'm getting an exception when I try to start the receive location: The Messaging Engine failed to add a receive location "News Receiver" with URL "wcf://http://localhost:13000/eventsource" to the adapter "WCF". Reason: "The ChannelDispatcher at 'http://localhost:13000/eventsource' with contract(s) '"IndigoOneWayReceiver"' is unable to open its IChannelListener.".

• Visual Basic How to not get combobox SelectedIndexChanged be executed on load

  Hello, As what the subject line is.... What is the method to not allow combobox SelectedIndexChanged to be executed on load... and only make it to be executed when a "USER" changes the selection value. Thanks well anything can go wrong during that but should be kept as an absolute last resort :-) I am sure there is a better way of finding out why the developer (original poster) needs to alter the selected index at start up of the application (onload)   I could post some examples but best not until we find out whats happening during onload, with some code :) ...Show All
