在ASP.NET ReportViewer控件中使用远程SSRS数据源运行LocalReport

Question

I'll try to describe what exactly I am doing: I am trying to incorporate a ReportViewer control into my ASP.NET page, that would enable the user to view pre-defined and useruploaded, RDL reports, set parameters and finally receive the output (both on-screen and in a file).

So we have an SSRS on a remote server, with shared datasources defined there. The remote server also has the OLAP cube on it, that stores the data for the datasource.

Question: What puzzles me is how do you provide the connection between a local report and the remote datasource to let the report execute it's mdx query ?

So far I was only able to display LocalReport with local datasource, and wasn't able to DISPLAY the ServerReport at all (just receiving the resulting bytes from the server).

Thanks.

1. You can solve your problem if you will deploy LocalReports to that Remote Server in some separate sub-folder. Then you will be able to use Shared Datasource.

2. ReportViewer has ProcessingMode property Local or Remote. It could be used for both. You can add 2 instances of ReportViewer on the page one for Local and one for Remote reports.
