Hi
I am building an SSRS deployment which includes a datasource. I would like to put that datasource's name in a property (install parameter). Is there a way to do that?
The idea behind this is I don't want to overwrite an existing datasource. So I want to collect the file name, put it in an SQL ...

Re: SSRS deployment : datasource selection and impersonation
Hi
An update on that : I looked for further workarounds. Unfortunately, I still wasn't able to reliably set the username & password on the datasource. It looks to be possible using web service calls (see http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14546125/change-ssrs-data-source-of-report-programmatically ...

I tried your answer to #6. Unfortunately, it was only a partial success and not sufficient for our case. We want to pass server, database, user and password to the datasource. I managed to make them map to the properties as you explained and it correctly chose the server and database once ...

Re: SSRS deployment : datasource selection and impersonation
Hi
Thanks a lot for your answers! I'll need to try #6 on my side and see if I can acceptably make it work in our projects. Question #4 is a major issue, but at least #6 helps working around it.

Hi
Thanks for the answers so far.
But remember that I'm still looking for info on questions 4 to 6.

Coming back to this situation after a long time.

SSRS deployment : datasource selection and impersonation
Hi
I am trying to deploy SSRS reports on a server. I am encountering 2 problems.
#1 : impersonation
My windows user does not have permissions on the target server. So if I open the SSRS web page in Internet Explorer for example, I am prompted for a user/password. In my situation, I know the user ...

Hi
I figured that it was probably not an Advanced Installer problem, but I posted it here anyway just in case. And in the meantime I finally found the solution. I had to open a command prompt and enter the following:
setx /M COMPLUS_LoadFromRemoteSources 1
which, from what I understand, creates a ...

Re: Deployed DLL is blocked?
Hi
Thanks for the answer. But the error is not the same. I have "Operation is not supported" instead of "The system cannot find the file specified". In fact, I did previously have the file not found error, but I fixed a config value, so I can assure you it's not the same problem.

Re: SourceDir goes in APPDIR in silent install?
Thanks for your reply. This behavior seems as unusual as my request, but your solution worked. Thank you!
Also, FYI, I noticed in my "buggy" example that the PROP_SETUPFOLDER folder did not get deleted on uninstall.

SourceDir goes in APPDIR in silent install?
Hi
So I have 2 folders to deploy. One is in APPDIR and the other is property-based on a property called PROP_SETUPFOLDER. I have the following actions:
- after Wizard Dialog's Searches : set PROP_SETUPFOLDER to [SourceDir] if UILevel > 2
- after Install Execution's Searches : set PROP_SETUPFOLDER ...

Re: Get folder at build time
Thanks for your answer.
I'm a bit surprised that getting the files cannot be done this way, especially after looking at this page http://www.advancedinstaller.com/user-guide/build-events.html
Pre-Build Events
This type of events are executed before the actual package is being created. They can be ...

Re: Get folder at build time
Reproduction steps:
- Put a folder somewhere with 2 files inside : script1 and script2
- Create the solution, in this case FormsApplication1
- Add the AI project, which will be located at FormsApplication1\AISetpuProject1
- Add a batch file in the solution's folder called GetScripts.bat. It will get ...

Re: Get folder at build time
Yes, I tried the batch file manually. The problem is that Advanced Installer seems to run it as a post-build event even if I set it as pre-build (and yes I double-checked it's in pre-build and not post-build). Or, maybe, this is just a guess, the build is done in 2 steps and the pre-build event is ...
