Hello Techies
i have SSRS 2005 report the source data from oracle views i simply select * from the view and display data for a particular entity say empID using filter in the reports which is passed as parameter
the question is whether SSRS will cahe the data and for subsquent request it will take from Cache instead of going back to database even if i change the parameter say empID 1,2,3,
please help me on this
thanks in advance
SSRS always performs user session caching for each parameter combination. If a subsequent request is sent before the session expires and includes the session identifier, the report will be displayed from the cached instance. The end user can click the Refresh Report toolbar button (not the browser Refresh button) to generate the report anew.

i call the depolyed rdl and then renders in to excel in my Windows Application
and i pass param to RDL not to datasource i use the param for filters in RDL list
i enable cache for that rdl say 60 min
when render the rdl in loop by changin the param it gives same output excel data for different param
please help

I enable cache for that rdl say 60 min
What does this mean? You enabled shapshot caching? You don't have to do anything to specifically enable user session caching. However, I haven't tried filtering only though. If it still doesn't work for you I will take a look.

I enable cache for that rdl say 60 min means execution cache for that report
i haven't enabled session cache coz i not displaying my rdl in browser
i use Reporting Service webservice methods to accesses and render report
code
Private Sub RptRender2(ByVal paramName As String, ByVal paraVal As String)
Dim rs As New ReportExecutionService()
rs.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials
rs.Url = "http://localhost/reportserver/ReportExecution2005.asmx"
' Render arguments
Dim result As Byte() = Nothing
Dim reportPath As String = "/PanelPayments/EvalRpt2"
Dim format As String = "EXCEL"
Dim historyID As String = Nothing
Dim devInfo As String = "<DeviceInfo><Toolbar>False</Toolbar></DeviceInfo>"
' Prepare report parameter.

Dim SessionId As String
Dim extension As String = ""
Dim arrList As New ArrayList
arrList.Add("1")
arrList.Add("2")
arrList.Add("3")
arrList.Add("4")
rs.ExecutionHeaderValue = execHeader
execInfo = rs.LoadReport(reportPath, historyID)
Dim i As Integer
Try
For i = 0 To arrList.Count - 1
'set parameter
paraVal = arrList(i).ToString()
parameters(0) = New WindowsApplication2.ReportExecution2005.ParameterValue()
parameters(0).Name = paramName
parameters(0).Value = paraVal
rs.SetExecutionParameters(parameters, "en-us")
'get sessiion id
SessionId = rs.ExecutionHeaderValue.ExecutionID
Console.WriteLine("SessionID: {0}", rs.ExecutionHeaderValue.ExecutionID)
'render the result
result = rs.Render(format, devInfo, extension, _
encoding, mimeType, warnings, streamIDs)
execInfo = rs.GetExecutionInfo()
Console.WriteLine("Execution date and time: {0}", execInfo.ExecutionDateTime)
' Write the contents of the report to an MHTML file.
Try
Dim sFilePath As String = "C:\Paypal\out\Summary" & paraVal & ".xls"
Dim stream As FileStream = File.Create(sFilePath, result.Length)
Console.WriteLine("File created.")
stream.Write(result, 0, result.Length)

when verifed the report Execution log table it shows same parameter value except first 2
thanks

Once you create a snapshot report, all subsequent requests will be served using the cached instance irrespective of the parameters passed. That's because a snapshot report is cached only for the default parameter values specified when the snapshot is generated. In contrast, session caching is performed for each parameter combination.
i haven't enabled session cache coz i not displaying my rdl in browser
Session caching is always enabled. You can control only the session timeout (the minimum is 60 seconds). If you pass the session identifier back to the report server you can take advantage of the session caching when you call the RS web service.|||
Hi
Enabling snapshot eliminates the problem of getting same data for different parameters - Thanks a ton
but
i am using
SetExecutionOptions method to set snapshot but how can check the time taken for snapshot to complete
coz i am getting exception if the sanpshot is not created
ie the generation of the report runs montly so a exe will set the snapshot and renders to excel for diff parameter
if you can suggest something to solve i think i will solve the problem
again thanks a lot
your knowledge on SSRS is commentable

hello
I have a created a report in 2005 and am calling the report from .Net console.
I have enabled caching for 30 minutes. I have added parameters as filters to the report assuming that I'll be able to retrieve the output from cache rather than hitting db for each of the parameters. My report runs fine with 2 parameters but when I trigger the same with the third parameter, the outputs is erndered with the second parameter value.From then onwards all my outputs will have the same parameter filter value 2 applied.Haven't enabled snapshots as it is difficult to maintain (clean one)
Any help?
Thanks for all your help

Execution caching is based on query parameters not report parameters. You need to link report parameters to the query instead of using filters.
|||
Thank you
i used
SetExecutionOptions
and
UpdateReportExecutionSnapshot (this method waits till the snapshot is created)
and i would call the render method
it worked !!!!
other work around suggested by our team cordinator is using
web url request
Create the URL (including render option and parameter)
and use webRequest method to download the file this work much faster than the snapshot
loop the url for different parameters
thanks a ton for sharing your knowledge

Hi
ok..I understand... How do i pass query parameters from my application?
Thanks
|||
Once you configure the report for execution cache, setExecutionParameters() followed by Render() should work. See the code example in this thread.

Hi all,
I am a newbie here. Just wondering, How to set the timeout for .rdlc file?
I am using reporting services and my report always timeout after around 30sec. I already tried to set timeout in the connection string but it's not working. I am just using the report viewer to display this report.
Any help will be appreciated. Thank you.

30 sec or 30 min? There is a global report timeout setting which you can overwrite for all reports. Go to Report Manager -> Site Settings ->Limit report execution to the following number of seconds. The default is 1800 seconds. You can overwrite the timeout on report basis by setting the same property in the report Execution property tab.
There is also a proxy timeout setting on the ReportViewer control (ServerReport section -> Timeout) to time out the web service call. The default is 600000 ms (600 seconds).
