Hi,

 

He means Sql Server Reporting Services (which there is no support in the
sql extension presently).

 

I'm glad someone raised it as I have been searching for days looking to
see if an extension and/or custom action exists for deploying reports,
Models, resources and data sources using wix. Sadly I didn't come up
with anything and was about to resort to writing my own extension; that
was until I realised I was in way over my head. If no one knows of any
then ill have to write a custom action in the mean time to suit our
deployment needs.

 

On that point, I was using the new DTF custom actions to see if I could
do it easier, but when I referenced the web reference for
reportingservices2005 it would throw the whole reflection only api error
as mentioned below:

Error      2              System.IO.FileLoadException: Cannot resolve
dependency to assembly 'System, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral,
PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089' because it has not been preloaded. When
using the ReflectionOnly APIs, dependent assemblies must be pre-loaded
or loaded on demand through the ReflectionOnlyAssemblyResolve event.
D:\Snowden\Resources\Common\ReportingServices\EXEC
ReportingServices

 

I was able to overcome this by using a dll to wrap up the functionality
I was using and then including the reference to this dll in the custom
action, but i just know there would be an easier way then daisy chaining
the calls. Any one come across this? 

 

Thanks,

SSRS?  SQL something or other?  If so, pretty much everything in SQL can
be configured with SQL so the SqlString/SqlScript goes far.  Assuming,
it is SQL Server we're talking about here.  <smile/>

Hi,

 

Does anyone have any experience of using WiX to setup some SSRS reports?

 

I'm thinking it will probably require some custom actions...

 

Cheers,

J
