SSRS SQL Server Authentications


I'm having an issue with an SSRS report using SQL Server Authentication.

I'm creating the report in VS2017 (SSDT), latest update 05/11/2018.

Creating a pretty basic report with 2 data sources. The data sources appear to be valid and passes test.
Test Connection: Connection Successful

When I attempt to preview the report SSRS throws the obtuse error

An error occurred during local report processing

Preview results w/SQL Server Authentication

By changing the credentials from SQL Server Authentication to Windows Authentication I can preview the report just fine:
Preview results w/Windows Authentication

There are no reported login failures in the logs of the target SQL server so it would appear that the report is failing prior to the login.

I'm a little befuddled and appreciate any insights the community could provide.


Solution

  • Convert your data set to shared data set. I also faced the same problem when i upgraded my ssdt.
