SSRS for Sharepoint, Images in a report from a Sharepoint List URL?
- by James Polhemus
Greetings Sabios,
I have several reports I run successfully where the data comes from a Sharepoint list in the form of an XML dataset. I am however having trouble with one. I have a report that pulls an image file onto the main body of the report. This data too comes from a Sharepoint list in the form of an XML dataset which sends me the URL to the jpeg or bmp or gif... whatever the case may be.
I can successfully pull this off in my own Visual Studio IDE.
My Local Report Server will render it as well
It won't run on my Sharepoint Report Server (My MOSS runs through https while my Shartpoint Report Server is http might this matter?)
When I upload it to Sharepoint and run it through the Sharepoint Report Server, I get back EVERYTHING in the report Header and Footer (dataset text and embedded Images) but just a big RED X where the Main Image should be. I have done everything the boards say:
A. I made sure the Unattended Execution Account is running on the Reports Server
B. I have insured the URL comes back in clean format (else the images wouldn't render locally either and they do)
The report logs throw this exception:
e ERROR: Throwing Microsoft.ReportingServices.Diagnostics.Utilities.ContainerTypeNotSupportedException: The target location you specified is not supported by the report server. A report definition (.rdl), report model (.smdl), resource, or shared data source (.rsds) file must be located within a library or a folder within it., ;

Any takers? Even my Sharepoint Administrator can't help me:)
James
