    - IIS Authentication Question I have a Windows 2003/SP1/IIS6 server that I'm trying to configure authentication properly for. When I have Integrated Windows authentication enabled, users inside the domain are not prompted to authenticate, as expected. Users not logged into the domain do receive an auth prompt, but it's trying to authenticate against local system accounts, not domain accounts. So, I turn basic authentication on (server does have an SSL cert), and outside users get the prompt, which is looking at domain accounts for authentication. However, my internal users already logged into the domain are promtped to log into the site, as well. Is there a way to have users inside my network using integrated windows (so they're not prompted), while users outside the network (coming in through the firewall) are using basic and do get the prompt with will authenticate them against the domain? I do know that users can enter their UPN, but I'd like to avoid this in an attempt to keep things simple. Thanks. Tag: Failed to access IIS metabase Tag: 382334

    - Error: 401.3 even with Full Control NTFS permission to Everyone Background info: 401.3 error: Unauthorized Due to ACL on Resource Hi, I am running into a weird problem. I have a web farm setup with 4 frontend servers, 2 win2k and 2 win2k3. Last night, the 2 win2k3 servers all of a sudden started producing this 401.3 error (login box poped up, entered credential, and got the error). I then went into the servers to see permission settings for IIS and NTFS and event viewer, and found no suspicious hacking attempts nor any wrong permission setting. Whatever I tried (like change the account IIS application runs as), it just wouldn't work. I then grant Everyone Full Control to the home directory just to make sure it works with the least restriction -> again, it didn't help. It just kept throwing this 401.3 error. I fully understand how 401.3 differs from other 401 errors, and I had never had to deal with this problem with so much efforts. I think it is probably something else that manifested as 401.3. My Win2k3 has SP1 applied with all Windows Update patches applied. Therefore, this article does not apply: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;832911 Thanks for your help in advance! Tag: Failed to access IIS metabase Tag: 382331

    - Enable Integrated Windows Authentication (requires restart) Setting in IE 6 Hello, I have a internal website running on IIS 6.0/Windows 2003 SP1 set to Integrated Authentication only. The server is a member of our Windows 2000 domain. All Windows 2000 domain-member machines can get to the site with no problem. All Windows XP domain-member machines are prompted for their user/pass/domain and it fails after 3 attempts even though you type in your correct user/pass/domain. This problem goes away if you turn off the "Enable Integrated Windows Authentication (requires restart)" Setting in IE6 on the XP machines. If you turn on this setting on 2000 machines it fails as well. On an non domain member, it doesn't matter what this setting is. It will prompt you for your user/pass/domain and let you in with a valid account. With the failures I see the following in the security event log of the server. It shows that no username and domain was passed for kerberos authentication. I do not want to turn this setting off on all my Windows XP machines. Anyone know how I can fix this on the server side?

Now this function works fine when we have our warehouse personnel open OWA while on our network. But, if we have office personnel traveling and their password expires they get the IIS change password screen only when they enter the new password the response they get is Error 5.

    - Reset or Recycling of App Pools - Difference? We have an web application that stops creating certain dynamic pages after running for a week or so. The app pool recycle does not take care of the problem but a stop and restart of the pool does take care of the problem. So what is carried over in a recycle that does not carry over on a stop\start? What does a stop\start of the app pool tell me that could lead me to what is causing the problem? memory? threads? Any help is appreciated thanks. Tag: Failed to access IIS metabase Tag: 382318

    - Application resets after a few minutes of activity. Hi, I have an ASP application running on IIS 6.0. Every few minutes the application seems to unload itself and the Application_OnStart function is called. This causes the application to lose all the information stored in the application variables. I am using the default application pool settings which should recycle every 29 hours and time-out after 20 minutes of idleness. but for me it seems to recyle after just a few minutes of activity.

    - Why won't IIS serve ASP pages? I posted this question for the Win Media Center Edition discussion group; I should probably have posted it here instead. Here's the situation, I'd love to have your insights: Recently got a new box running Win MCE (2002). Installed IIS components without any trouble, and it appears that all of the required directories (inetpub, wwwroot, etc) are in place, as are iisstart.asp and localstart.asp. The network is functioning; I pinged localhost and computer_name and everything ran as it should. Any html file serves just fine through http://localhost/. The problem is that it will not serve any .asp files, including localstart.asp. I keep getting the error 500 white screen. Even unchecking the friendly error messages doesn't give me anything useful (although I'm not entirely sure where to go looking on the computer for a detailed logfile entry about the error). I've been all through the MMC a dozen times looking for anything unusual. The default web is there. I don't know exactly what the permissions should be set to, but this is a development system for me alone, and I'm logged on as an administrator, with script execution permission set, so that should not be the problem. Some versions of IIS apparently allow you to designate which file extensions to allow and which to block. (V6.0 apparently comes locked down, so the ASP extension has to be selected in order to display ASP files, but I can't find anything similar in v5.1.) Am I just overlooking it? I give up. What's left to consider? I've done this on previous machines (XP Pro) and don't remember having these sorts of mysteries on my hands. Please offer the most likely steps I should take to resolve this. It just can't be as hard as I've made it! Tag: Failed to access IIS metabase Tag: 382287

    - Checking for response.redirect, and isolating exceptions. I'm trying to isolate the origin of a large number of exceptions. Is there a way to search an asp.net app for locations that use response.redirect, response.end, and server.transfer? I don't have ready access to the source code. Any other tips on how to isolate the cause of exceptions, when you're dealing with a *large* number of exceptions? Over the period of a day, it averages to about 40 exceptions per request.

    - DLLHOST Hi - posting this here and Exchange because I really don't know where the problem lies. Running Outlook Web Access on IIS5.0 and Exchange 5.5. Everytime time a users opens a connection to OWA, the server running IIS spawns another session of DLLHOST.EXE and this session remains open even after disconnect. Eventually, once this DLLHOST session consumes about 50 mb of memory, access to OWA hangs. Can anyone shed some lite on this. I've seen alot of discussion on it and it seems the only "fix" I have seen is to write a script that ends this runaway process every x times a day. Problem with this, is if someone is connected to OWA, they get kicked off when the script runs. Thanks in advance Tag: Failed to access IIS metabase Tag: 382281

Right now, we are redesigning the infrastructure for the webservers and it seems that we have too many web severs.

    - MS IIS Memory Usage Growth We have a web-application running in MS IIS 6.0 under MS Winsows 2003 with all latest updates installed. The application is a COM-server, exposed for users via ASP pages. During a stress-test we encounter the following problem. Dllhost memory usage increasingly grows and never lowers down to its initial value after all sessions closed. The COM-server itself does not have memory leaks, we know this because we monitor memory usage in our application. The COM-object gets successfully destroyed and clears its memory each time a request is done. As for Dllhost, it seems as if it never frees up all memory back. We tried to change session timeouts and even to run the application in the sessionless mode. Nothing helps. Our aim is to process approx. 10 requests per second (for beginning). Normally, if 10 new users are logged at the moment T and get some resources allocated for their requests, IIS must clear up all resources, which were used for 10 existing users logged in at the moment T-<some-timeout>. If this is true, then the following behaviour is anticipated. After the application test started (M0), Dllhost starts to eat memory to some, possibly high, value because of new requests. Once the timeout period elapsed since M0, the memory usage must stabilize: new memory allocations are equal to the memory which is freed up in every moment. So, what is the timeout for the sessionless mode? If sessions are used, what additional time should pass after session timeout before IIS actually frees up the session memory? We tried to use sessions with 5 minutes timeout, but memory remains in use after 5 minutes. What memory overheads per session are normally charged by Dllhost per asp-page display? What data is stored in the memory, used by Dllhost? How should we set up IIS in order to force memory cleaning exactly by timeout? Currently IIS is ran out of physical memory (1Gb) in 10 minutes after the test start and begins to swap, so that performance decreases tremendously. I've read about some W3SVC parameters in the registry, which might possibly help us to change IIS caching policy, but it was about static files, whereas we host mostly dynamic asp-pages.

The problem is errors of the ISAPI application are not logging to the Event log (Application log), but it logs in if it is running in an IIS5 windows 2000 server. If add â??optaweb1wsâ?? to local administrators group of the IIS6 windows 2003 server. It starts logging. Or If copy the home directory to the local hard drive, it starts logging too.

The problem is errors of the ISAPI application are not logging to the Event log(Application log), but it logs in if it is running in a IIS5 windows 2000 server. If add â??optaweb1wsâ?? to location administrators group of the IIS6 windows 2003 server as local administrator. It starts logging. Or If I copy the home directory to the local hard drive, it starts logging too. My question is whether I can get the IIS6 ISAPI application logs to the application log without grant the â??optaweb1wsâ?? account as a local administrator or move the network share to local hard drive?

    - server 2003 and IIS - Can't access websever public Ip from outside network We are running 2003 R2 and IIS. Public IP is set to route to internal webserver ip 192.168.1.10 on port 80. We can ping the public IP from outside and get a reply. We can get to the website through localhost and through internal ip. Checked all router settings, port fowarding, etc. Even opened up all ports. We disabled the windows firewall and the firewall service. Does anyone know what is blocking outside traffic here. Must be something on the webserver. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Tag: Failed to access IIS metabase Tag: 382236

    - Gears never stop "Please wait while your changes are processed' Had IIS 6 on Win2003 system. Also had Sharepoint Services v2 installed. System was current on patches. Developers wanted to publisher their new gadgets to the system and wanted Front Page Extensions. Installed but every time we try to extend we get the never ending gear. If we try to detect and repair - the button does not do ANYTHING. I've uninstalled Sharepoint Services and uninstalled/re-installed FPE. What simple thing did I miss? -- Uncle H Tag: Failed to access IIS metabase Tag: 382235

    - Setting up IIS under XP Professional I'm having a difficult time getting IIS to function under XP Professional. My objective is to have Front Page publish to IIS running locally on my computer so I can test my website and asp pages. I think I resolved the logging in problem. I'm trying now just to get the default page to come up. When I goto http://localhost I get the folowing error: HTTP 500.100 - Internal Server Error - ASP error Internet Information Services Error Type: Microsoft VBScript runtime (0x800A0046) Permission denied: 'GetObject' /localstart.asp, line 40 Browser Type: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322) Page: GET /localstart.asp Looking into localstart.asp you find: 37: ' Using ADSI, get the list of default documents for this Web site. 38: 39: sPath = "IIS://" & sServername & "/W3SVC/" & sServerinst 40: Set oDefSite = GetObject(sPath) I'm logged in as Administrator so hopefully there shouldn't be any permission issues. Any ideas? Is there a document that describes how to install IIS under XP Professional step by step? I've been playing around with this for about two weeks inching along and chipping away at each new error message (: Tag: Failed to access IIS metabase Tag: 382229

    - IIS running on localhost only with XP Pro Hi I'm running XP Pro, not on a domain or anything. Latest service packs. I'm using IIS to develop Visual Studio 2005 ASP.NET applications. I also have Visual Studio.Net/SQL Server 2005 and Visual Studio 2005 on this one machine. It is very much a localhost setup. I want to prevent IIS from going out to the internet. I just want it to listen locally. How can I do this? Bare in mind that not being part of a domain and not being a Windows server means I don't have access to the usual security features. I want to keep anonymous access for convenience (firewall will hopefully stop anything untoward). Can you tell me how to do this? Can I do this on a per website basis or does the whole of IIS have to go this way? Many thanks Alex Tag: Failed to access IIS metabase Tag: 382228

    - Server Application Error I'm trying to get IIS to run ASP files on my local computer. When I try to access and ASP file, I get the "Server Application Error" message. This happens even when running a simple ASP file with the code <% response.write "Hello" %> in it. IIS does run html files. Below is the event log results. I've seen a few different Microsoft resources but have not found one to fix this yet. Any suggestions?

    - Need IIS server to serve PDF files!! (registry?) I have uploaded a few PDF files to my Windows Server 2003 IIS 6.0 webserver. However, they are not available on the web as I didn't change any settings to allow PDF files. The server is remote, and I cannot log into it presently, but I can access a desktop machine connected on the same LAN through Remote Desktop. I can connect to the server's registry through the desktop machine using regedit. Is there any way I can edit the registry to allow IIS to show the PDF files or this not going to be possible at all? Or is there any way to administer IIS from the XP Pro desktop machine? ss. Tag: Failed to access IIS metabase Tag: 382221

    - IIS6 won't serve files without extensions Hi All: I "inherited" a website that I migrated to server 2003 web edition. The developer used a "poor-man's redirection" scheme where he would use a static file with a meta refresh. So he'd have a link like: mysite.com/somepage where "somepage" was text file with some code like: <HTML> <META HTTP-EQUIV='Refresh' CONTENT='0; URL=http://mysite.com/anotherpage.asp?gymid=82'> </HTML> This was working on the previous server (Win2K) but now the pages are not loaded and instead gives a 404 error. What needs to be enabled to get this to work? Tag: Failed to access IIS metabase Tag: 382218

    - IIS users In active directory I see the followign four user accounts: IWAM_Server1 IUSR_Server1 IWAM_Server2 IUSR_Server2 Server 1 and server 2 represent the names of the server. These servers do not have IIS installed on them. What are theses user accounts used for they are all disabled in Active Directory? I'm assuming at some point IIS was installed by mistake and this caused the usr accounts to appear in Active Directory. Is it safe to delete these accounts?

    - Web Site displays "Under Construction" page only when accessed over internet Hi I'm trying to setup IIS on my Win2K3 server. I have several virtual directories under Default Web Site, all of which can be accessed using IE from any machine in my LAN. However, when accessing it over the internet I just get the under construction page when requesting the root directly, or "The page cannot be displayed" when trying to access any of the virtual folders. Directory Browsing is enabled on all of these and return what I expect when I access IIS from ony of my LAN machines. This isn't an firewall issue either as port 80 is open and forwards onto my Win2K3 server fine. This is proved by the fact that IIS return the "Under Construction" page when accessing over the internet, My Default Web Site uses DefaultAppPool, which is configured to use "Network Service" account. This account has all the relevant NTFS permissions as far as I can tell. Any ideas Ben Tag: Failed to access IIS metabase Tag: 382210

    - EFS setup for IUSR_machinename I have an ASP website that needs to access a file that has been encrypted using EFS and now I need to allow the IUSR_<machinename> user account to have access to this file. The problem that I have is that when I try to add the IUSR... account to the EFS file I do not get the option of selecting the IUSR... account - only allows searching for users via the current Domain. Anybody had any experience trying to set this up? If I am required to create a Certificate for the IUSR... account, what is the process to do this??

    - 2 Problems (ASP.NET 2.0 + INDIGO) Hi all, I will highly appreciate your help to me if you help me with one (or both) of the following 2 problems: I have the following on my machine (Windows Vista build 5308) successfully installed: 1) VS 2005 Standard 2) Sql Server 2005 Standard 3) Windows SDK February CTP (5308) 4) Microsoft Visual Studio Code-named orcas CTP preview-development tools for winFX 5) Visual Studio 2005 Extensions for WWF I have two small problems: I) I've read and fully understood Clemens Vasters article about INDIGO [ http://msdn.microsoft.com/winfx/technologies/communication/default.aspx?pull=/library/en- us/dnlong/html/introtowcf.asp ] and I also read your "HELLO WCF" example [http://windowscommunication.net/collateral/pages/howto.htm ]; so I wanted to ONLY re-write your "Hello WCF" example on my machine (without making any changes to the code), I wrote the service, and then, chose Build -> success, I've run the sample, yes it's working, but as mentioned in the explanation of "Hello WCF" I must be able to open [ http://localhost/hello ] and see a welcome page ! this is what freaks me !! i can't find anything in the www root directory altough i specified this directory [ http://localhost/hello ] when i defined the new URI in code !! so when I open [ http://localhost/hello ] it gives me this error : "..Not Found..". Note that I haven't developed any website before on ASP.NET 2.0, that's why when i open : [ http://localhost ] it gives me "under construction page" !! Tell me please why there's NOT nothing in the root after I build the solution or why the browser gives me "..Not Found.." error !! II) When I try to create a new ASP.NET 2.0 (on the above machine), and choose to save it on "http", and press on "Browse" button to choose the "Local IIS" option, then oops, I can't use this option , DISABLED !! it tells me that "...you must be a member of the Administrators group on the local computer to access the IIS metabase...", what's the hell is that thing ?! I logged on using my own account and it's of course an Administrator account (i checked that from Control Panel), and to be also sure, I logged on with the user name "Administrator" which is the built-in administrator account with Windows Vista, and it also showed up the above message ! I opened the IIS, tried to play with security settings, but couldn't do anything to enable the "local IIS" option (mentioned above) !! is there specific thing that i must do to enable that option ! so i can create ASP.NE 2.0 websites on [ http://localhost/ ] ? Thanx so much in advance !! Tag: Failed to access IIS metabase Tag: 382198

    - Problems with IIS Browsing Local IPs I have a Windows 2003 Server Web Edition I just setup and it is now having problems browsing itself on the internal networks. My server is behind a firewall on the 10.0.0.x network. It's specific IP is 10.0.0.6. When I browse from outside the firewall, going through the firewall and hitting 10.0.0.6 it works great. When I browse from the machine itself at 10.0.0.6 or 127.0.0.1 I receive an error on the server. I ran WFetch on the address and I receive the following error 0x2749 (A request to send or receive data was disallowed because the socket is not connected and (when sending on a datagram socket using a sendto call) no address was supplied.): connect() This all seemed to break after I installed Apache Tomcat with the Jakarta ISAPI filter (which is needed for one thing on my server). I have tried removing Tomcat and Jakarta and it does not resolve the issue. How in the heck do you troubleshoot something like this? Does anyone have any idea where the problem may be?

    - asp.net, iis, blocking httphandlers Hi, I do that for the first time, but posting this in microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.aspnet, microsoft.public.inetserver.iis, http://forums.asp.net/thread/1271188.aspx (no response) and http://www.dng.cz/Diskuze/tabid/54/Default.aspx?dnnbbfid=2&dnnbbtid=15 (in czech, no response) since I found no help and I need solution quite quickly. I have made a handler built-in in a project, ashx file. I access it using /MyWeb/MyHandler.ashx/param. It works almost perfectly. The problem is, that I found from packet anylisis, that some requests are rejected I believe by IIS (maybe asp.net). All of them are of method OPTIONS, I strongly need to accept this requests because the handler is DAV-compatible and I need to acknowledge that in the response. I do not need any authentication to process OPTIONS. The returned headers are when using NTLM authentication HTTP/1.1 401 Unauthorized, when using anonymous access 403 Forbidden. :( For IIS experts - how can I configure the IIS to forward all requests to my handler? For asp.net experts - I believe this could be solved by explicitly registering the handler in web.config. However I can't do that, because I don't know the type/assembly, since all of the dynamic compilation around. And I can't compile the handler itself into dll, because it is uising referencing object and types of the remaining web project. Thank you all for ANY idea!

    - 2 install questions Hi IIS6.0 on XP Pro 64, AMD processor This is my first experience with IIS 6 and the 64 bit OS I installed IIS from "Add/Remove Windows Component". There are no options for Front Page Extensions. I install Visual Studio 2003 developer edition. It wants fp extensions. I have read here that IIS 6 does not have or use fp ext's. (So I prceed with vs install anyway) Q1) IS this true and if so, then why does the install ask for it? Although IIS has created a "default web site" the only web page installed is iisstart.htm, an under construction page. There are a few other files, but really no site. IIS 5, when installed, had an entire site about IIS and getting started and all that happy stuff. Q2) Is this normal install for IIS 6 or did it go bad somewhere along the way? Bottom line, the only thing I can serve from IIS is html pages. ASP.NET does not appear to be working. This install appears quite broken Thanks for any answers, suggestions, thoughts whatever. jeff Tag: Failed to access IIS metabase Tag: 382169

    - Peculiar IIS 5.1 problem - Hangs on static content but NOT dynamic content Ok, I've been racking my head on this problem for a full week, and nothing I have tried has solved it. To put it simply, on IIS 5.1 on Windows XP Pro SP2, whenever I access a simple asp file (like a countdown to the year 3000 calculation in years, days, minutes, etc.), it serves fine. I can even make a .shtml file with no dynamic content and it will serve. Even an asp file with all static content will serve. Now, whenever I try to load a .txt file, or .html, or .jpg or anything static... I get the ding sound on my computer and it says it's loading forever. The first time I go to Command Prompt to do an IISRESET, it'll attempt to stop and fail with: Attempting stop... Restart attempt failed. The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion. (2147943453, 8007041d) I do IISRESET again, and it will succeed. I can then do the same things again, and once a non-dynamic extension loads, it hangs again. Here's what I've tried so far: I've gotten IISdebug tools from Microsoft, and have the IIS crash detection tool running. It logs all the crashes into small log files. Here's an exerpt from a file: #Fields: date time src-ip src-port dst-ip dst-port cs-version cs-method cs-url sc-status s-site s-reason 2006-04-29 12:13:27 127.0.0.1 1067 127.0.0.1 80 HTTP/1.1 GET /forclass/test.html - 1 Connection_Abandoned_By_Inetinfo_Crash 2006-04-29 12:13:12 127.0.0.1 1067 127.0.0.1 80 HTTP/1.1 GET /forclass/countdown.asp 200 1 Request_Completed 2006-04-29 12:13:00 127.0.0.1 1066 127.0.0.1 80 HTTP/1.1 GET /forclass/test.shtml 200 1 Request_Completed I have also tried removing and reinstalling IIS, this did nothing (not to mention I'll have to reconfigure .NET to work on this now) I have tried running SFC.EXE and restoring any damaged, corrupt, or improperly changed files, then rebooted (and this also involved the convoluted(sp?) task of slipstreaming SP2 files onto a new install CD, which was even more fun since it was a Dell OEM install... but I digress). After SFC failed to solve the problem, I uninstalled and reinstalled IIS again. Nope. I also remembered having Norton Antivirus on the system before, and remembering that some people had problem with script blocking, I reinstalled it and unchecked the "block malicious scripts" box. That didn't work either, and I was also able to do the basic asp files before reinstalling Norton. I also have AVG Free antivirus, this does not come with script blocking in the Free version however. Also note at the beginning I only had AVG Free installed, so having two antivirus products on my computer is not affecting this issue in any perceivable way. The only firewall I have is the WindowsXP Firewall, and that's not doing anything to it either (otherwise I wouldn't even get ASP pages). My basic system setup is as follows: Dell Inspiron 9100 laptop with 1.0 GB RAM and a 100GB HD (at least 40GB free) Windows XP Professional, Service Pack 2 Internet Information Systems 5.1 Up to date on all Microsoft Updates. Norton Antivirus and AVG Free Antivirus running Windows XP Firewall Also, IUSR permissions are set properly, and I also checked IWAM permissions to be on the safe side. I'm at a loss, and I'm beginning to wonder if it's even IIS that's fouling this up. I REALLY don't want to have to nuke and pave the entire system, as I'll be reinstalling forever. (plus I have no idea where a couple cd's I need are atm...) If anyone can help me with this, I'd be very grateful, been dying to try my hand at some ASP.NET v 2.0 and with this issue occuring, I'm at a standstill. Thanks in advance!

    - IIS Cache Etag bug Hi, I have noticed an unusual pattern on static file requests in our site (IIS6/Win2k3). The server was sending not modified files to the client , even if the if-modified-since header was correct. I found these links on the web describing a bug in IIS. The Etag header was not handled correctly and the 304 Not Modified answerd was not sent. Instead, IIS sends the file (200 OK code). http://dotnetjunkies.com/WebLog/leon/archive/2005/02/16/54630.aspx http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;823544 http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;900245 Is it safe to use a filter that removes the Etag from all requests to the site as suggested in http://blogs.msdn.com/yanno/archive/2006/03/03/543176.aspx ?

(more data follows) It records hits to no files other than / , and from no hosts other than local addresses.

I have installed SQL Server 2005, including Reporting Services 2005 on
Windows XP Professional in a standalone environment. I can see the Reports
and ReportServer folders in IIS in Administrative Tools and all settings
appear to be appropriate.

My first problem is that, when I try to access
"http://localhost/ReportServer", I get an error "Failed to access IIS
metabase". I have looked at KB article
"http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=267904" which is referred to in the error
message but it appears to relate to Windows Server 2003.

Secondly, I expected to get the same error when trying to access
"http://localhost/Reports" but in this case I get a message "Directory
Listing Denied" which seems to indicate that the metabase is not an issue
here. I can see the directory listing if I activiate this option in IIS in
Admin Tools but I can't browse the contents of the Reports web page.

Can anyone provide me with a solution? I have also listed this problem in
SQL Server Reporting Services in case it is a SQL Server problem.

Thank you.
