It could be the local server connection in the DBA_Rep data source. You might need to change it to the server where the DBA_Rep database resides if it is not local to the SSRS server instance. Most likely it is working in design because that is where you have the DBA_Rep database.

OK that does make sense because I have the DBA_Rep on another server altogether from the SSRS instance.

Hi
Indeed Express Edition only supports local Datasource...
So this report doesn't run on Express Edition Report Service

You have configured the Reporting services while installing the Sql Server Exp Edition. Please read the below mentioned link on more to do that.....

Hi
Thank's for the link. Yes, on this site it says under "unsupported features" that
"Remote data sources are not supported"
So only local data sources are supported and i cannot connect to other servers

I have tried to get this report to work to no avail, either. I downloaded what I believe to be the latest code, I am using SSRS2005 from within VS2005. I have set up the serverlist to only point to a remote dev box that I use all the time, but is sql2k, not 2k5.
"Cannot create a connection to data source "test"
An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to Sql Server 2005 (which I am not), this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings sql server does not allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to sql server)"
My serverlist and the static data source are on this dev box,and when I hit the exclamation point in the data tab, it brings back a server list result set, so I know I can connect to it.
When I hard code the data connection string, it works fine. it just doesnt like the dynamic part.
Also, what is the @loginname param used for? where is it set?
Thanks!
