- CRM v3 - Reports not running
- Posted by Carroll Little on December 9th, 2005
The CRM v3 reports do not work from the Laptop clients. The reports error out
if they are run from a machine other than the servers (CRM & SQL servers).
I get this message:
"Reporting Services Error
An error has occured during report processing. (rsProcessingAborted)
Cannot create a connection to data source 'CRM'. (rsErrorOpeningConnection)
Login failed for user '(null)'. reason: Not associated with a trusted SQL
Server connection."
The client machines are on the same domain as the servers so this trusted
SQL Server is curious. Any ideas out there?

We've got this solution, it worked for us:
RESOLUTION
===========
1-Configure the environment for the user to use a delegation in a right way
(IE, AD, SQL).
2-Access the report via http://crmserver/reports and specified the data
source as MSCRM_DATASOURCE.
3-Open Report Manager (http://<crmserver>/reports).
-Click the Show Details button and open the folder with the name of your
company.
-Click the Edit button the MSCRM_DataSource.
-Select the 'Credentials stored securely in the report server' radio button
and enter the credentials of the administrator.
-Select the following 2 checkboxes:
Use as Windows credentials when connecting to the data source
Impersonate the authenticated user after a connection has been made to the
data source
-Click Apply and attempt to run the reports.
This allowed all users to be able to access reports without error with admin
credentials.

Good morning Jean 
Good to know it work at your end.
Two question though:
1. Would it render/create the reports having the "Prepared by:" as the
Administrator even if the one accessing is just a plain user?
2. Would it affect the privilege/rights of the user? I mean, fetching the
data is on the Admin privilege?
I'm not sure, so hope you help share your experience

Hi Ian,
Because of the impersonate flag (" Impersonate the authenticated user after
a connection has been made to the data source ") it will keep the user rights
per users.
