Datasource cannot be found after report redeployment

We have an application using the winforms report viewer, and it displays all our reports perfectly untill I need to redeploy a report.

As soon as a report is re-deployed a refresh of the report in the viewer shows the following error message:

An error has occured during report processing. The data souce 'mydatasource' cannot be found.

This error occurs irrespective of electing to re-deploy ot not re-deploy the datasource, and the only solution seems to be to close the report viewer down and restart it.

I can reproduce the same problem hosting the reports in a web browser as well, with a slightly different error message

An error has occurred during report processing. (rsProcessingAborted). The data source 'mydatasource' cannot be found. (rsDataSourceNotFound)

Under RS2000 any changes that were made to a report, would automatically be shown to the user if the report was refreshed, without having to close the browser/application down and restart it.

Can I configure RS2005 to prevent this error occuring ? I have read that RS2005 seems to work a lot more within the IIS session for the user and cache things it thinks are usefull, so can I turn this behaviour off, or make it run like RS 2000 did, which provided me with a stable reporting platform?

If I cannot do this from the RS end of the system, is there any advice on using the winforms control to get around this issue - i've only just started using the control so I am not familiar with all its aspects !

Thanks

Hi Andy, did you ever resolve this? (I'm experiencing the same problem)

Datamining Viewer Client Problem

Hello!

I am running a SQL Server 2005. I created the mining models from the tutorials. I can connect with the DataminingViewerClient directly on the SQL Server(i.e. to localhost), but when i try to connect to the Server from my other computer it is not working i always get connection faild and i should check that the server is running. I can connect to the Server with other programms but the viewer is not working. Any ideas what that could be?

Can you connect to other servers from the machine where the DataminingViewerClient application works? If so, it may be that there are additional client components that need to be installed. Let us know and we can continue to diagnose.

Thanks

|||Ok i now tried to connect from Server A to Server B, not working either. It works on both when i run the viewer directly on the server and connect to localhost but not from Server A to B or vice versa or from any other computer. Could it be that some permissions are missing, because in the dataminingviewer client i dont have to specify a user/password for the server where the analysis-service runs. I dont think that components are missing because i can compile the source code without errors, but i'll be happy about any hint that might help.

Another thing i tried: When i create a datasource on Server A to connect to Server B(or from any other computer) it only works when I use the sa user(Windows Authentication doesnt work), otherwise i cant browse/select the databases.|||In general AS only uses Windows Authentication, unless you connect over http (requires configuration - see books online). Connecting over http allows you to specify a username and password. For the DM Viewer Client, you cna modify the code to use a http connection, or prompt for username and password. The source code is provided.|||

Hello again!

I found the error...the server was not in the domain, after we added it it worked.
