RS fails to render a report with changes just made


RS fails to render a report with changes just made JohnWoll
4/30/2005 8:48:03 AM
sql server reporting services: Scenario: Using VS, I deploy a new version of a report (e.g., change some
text) to ReportServer. When I view the report from the web server using a
browser, the report does not show the change.

I tried deleting the report from the server, and re-deploying. The new
report appears in Reports, with the new datatime stamp, but when it renders,
it still renders the OLD version! Eventually, the new report shows up (e.g.,
hours later).

I also tried using a new session of the browser; it makes no difference.

I tried using both server\Reports and server\ReportServer. Same behavior on
both.

I tried setting "report history" on "Site Settings" and on the properties
page of the report to 1 (the lowest permitted number). Same behavior.

I assume some kind of caching at the server level is the cause, requiring a
new setting in the Web.Config or rssrvpolicy.config, but I don't know what
those settings might be.

I am using RS SP2, and have duplicated the behavior on both W2K3, and XP,
and using both IIS5 and IIS6.

Try reloading the site with STRG+F5 in the browser, if this resolves your
issues, this should be a client side vaching problem.

HTH, Jens SUessmeyer.

When you say you tried to use a new session of the browser what do you mean?
If you close IE and re-open it you should see the new report. I have never
not seen a new report (however I have not specified any caching). If you
have just taken the defaults when creating a report and have not set any
caching option in Report Manager then if you shut IE and re-open it you
should see the new report. Also, usually if you change the parameters and
run the report you should get the new report. Usually if I click on the
refresh of the report (not the IE refresh, you will also get the new
report).

You don't have to delete the report. Try just 2 and 3.

I think I have eliminated client side issues as the reason.

Please explain what you mean by "Try reloading the site with STRG+F5 in the
browser", maybe an example.

Thanks for the helping!

In answer to what I mean by using a "new session of the browser": I close MS
Internet Explorer, open it, enter the address for Reports, navigate to the
report and run it.

Here is the exact sequence I use:
-Make a change to a report using VS, e.g., change the value of a text box.
-Rebuild and redploy to ReportServer
-Launch IE, enter the url for Reports, navigate to the report, and the
change I made to the textbox value is not there.
-I delete the report completely, using Reports web interface.
-I rebuild and redploy the report. I close IE, open it again, enter the URL,
navigate to the report (which has a new datetime stamp), and run it. The
change is still missing!
- Changing parameters makes no difference.
- I am not using any caching, that I am aware of.

I appreciate the help. Let me know what you suggest I do next.

I confirmed that only if I do ALL of the following will the change to the
report appear consistently:
1. Delete the report from Report Server.
2. Redploy.
3. Change a parameter.
I can live with that.

Thanks, Bruce, for the suggestion of changing the parameter! I had tried
that, but not WITH deleting and redeploying.

As well as checking your I.E. settings for caching, you should also check if
the results are being cached at your proxy server.
