I set the db credentials in kettle.properties,
i set the variables with credentials in data source successfully
but when i click preview it gives me this error, it seems that it can't recognize the variable
This is how I declared the variables in kettle.properties
How can I solve?
1.I just use mysql instance, your kettle.properties is right.
2.Have you try to ping url of your db and login in your centos or ubuntu?
3.I think the most important problem is network and authority of db in whitelist.
4.My kettle

Im getting this error installing oracle client-server at the same time
how can i solve it?
In the connection you show, you have not specified the name of the database you want to connect. Therefore, it is using the value indicated by the environment variable ORACLE_SID. Furher, it uses that as a value to connect to a local datatabase - a database running on the same machine as the requesting client. The error your report is most commonly resulting from ORACLE_SID not indicating a valid instance name for a local database.
Try to check your $PATH environment variable has the path to the server the first one. Like this.
For checking it go to This PC (right-click) -> Properties -> Advanced System Settings -> Environment Variables -> System Variables.
Solution here:
I am trying to share a file containing a table of information pulled from an external SQL query connection. It works fine for me as I have the connections set up on my PC but when I send the file out, it asks for connection credentials. I could go to each PC and enter the credentials but would prefer the end users to open up the file and use it without having to enter any credentials and would like them to be able to refresh the data as and when needed.
How would I set this up or is it even possible?
Thanks in advance.
Your connection string should be using Windows Authentication, and the local user must be a member of a domain group that has the privileges to run the query on SQL Server.
If you go to Connection Properties, open the connection, and click on Definition, the Integrated Security tag should be set to SSPI.
I have Report Builder 3.0 installed on my local PC. I am creating a new report and adding an embedded data source to a SQL Server Analysis Services database.
When I build the connection string of the data source, choosing the server name and the database name, I click 'Test Connection' and receive a message saying "Test connection succeeded". So far, so good.
I close the connection properties with the OK button, and on the Data Source Properties window I click the 'Test Connection' button. This time I get an error saying "The connection either timed out or was lost".
If I ignore the error then I can successfully add a dataset to my report and add data from the dataset in to the report design, but when I try to run the report (on my local PC) I again get an error connecting to the data source.
My best guess is that the connection that succeeded is running under my credentials, whereas the connection that fails is running as some other credential and so needs to use Kerberos delegation to pass my credentials along, but that is only a guess and even if I am correct I am at a loss to understand how to fix the issue - I don't know what other credentials may be being used and I have already set SPN's for the Analysis Services service account.
So it turns out that it was a Kerberos issue as I suspected, and I was also correct that Report Builder was testing the connection using some process running under another authentication context.
It turns out that when setting up Report Builder (and I had forgotten it) that you specify a default SSRS Report Server (see screenshot). It must be that when testing data sources or running reports that it connects to that default Report Server and does the work from there - I was assuming that everything was running locally!
Once I figured that out it was just a case of finding a good guide on how to configure SSRS for Kerberos and everything started working. In my case the only bit that I hadn't already done was to add the <RSWindowsNegotiate/> setting to the AuthenticationTypes in the rsreportserver.config file
Whenever I try to access SSRS 2008 R2 through a URL (i.e. after being published on the net), it always shows a login prompt when accessing the report. The problem does not appear in the development environment.
How do I prevent this login prompt from showing whenever I try to access a report? For the time being, we are solving this problem by providing a username and password in <appSettings> in the web.config. Once this change is made, the login prompt does not appear.
Is there a better solution to this? Am I doing this the wrong way?
I am assuming the prompt is for the username / password for the domain. Internally you are likely getting through the AD authentication check in your application as you will have permissions to deliver the report (you can test that premise with Firefox or other browser that doesnt handle AD authentication like IE does/
I think you may have setup for basic authorisation to view the report RSReportServer.config rather than web.config is that what you have done? (see this to see example http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc281309.aspx.)
If you are trying to get full anonymous access then you are in for some fun; luckily one of the RS team blogged a way to achieve it; I wouldn't advocate doing it straight onto a production box though.

I'd start with using Internet Explorer, on a domain.. which will pass your credentials (if that is how you have this configured).
It IS possible to configure firefox to pass Windows Authentication / Token.. I don't remember how I had done this previously.
The BEST platform for using SSRS is Apple / Safari.. because when you hit the checkbox that says 'remember password' it actually remembers the password. It blows my mind that Chrome, Firefox, IE give you a prompt that says 'remember password' - but from my experience, remembering passwords only work as I expect when I am using Safari.
I'm not sure from you're question is the login box a prompt to get you access to the report server or is it a prompt on the reports datasource.
It sounds a bit like permissions to access the report server, I guess you could try giving the app pool user permissions to access the report server and run the report or use an impersonation account to access the report.
I was running into this problem for a different reason than the accepted answer. While SSRS was installed, it wasn't properly configured. Being new to installing SSRS, I had assumed some tabs in the Reporting Services Configuration Manager were set to defaults. They weren't. Once I went back and actually set them, everything worked fine.

As part of our product's installation process, a database is attached to the server.
We use EXEC sp_attach_db in order to attach it to MSSQL.
The problem occures when we try to attach it with "SQL Authentication" connection string - the database is attached to the server as read-only, thus preventing any write access from being performed
This is driving us nuts... it's working just fine with Windows Authentication, and the only difference is the connection string... I tried googling for it but no mention for such a scenario is found.
Any ideas anyone?
It's important to mention that the MDF/LDF physical files are not set with "ReadOnly" attribute, so this is not the problem.
I'm curious why you can't attach the database with write permissions and then just make the whole thing read only after the install?
