Reportpath in the server

[Marcelo]

Reportviewer is working when running lightswitch in developers machine, in localhost. When published to the server the control does not work.

Where should the ReportTemplate folder be located on the server?

What is the ReportPath that should be used?

What are the properties that should be used for the rdlc file? Embedded or content? Copy Always, etc?

Appreciate any help as the online documentation is very poor.

Hi Marcelo,

Thanks for using Syncfusion products.

Reportviewer is working when running lightswitch in developers machine, in localhost. When published to the server the control does not work.	This error may occur due to invalid reportpath set to ReportViewer. We are requesting you to ensure the provided reportpath location.
Where should the ReportTemplate folder be located on the server?	If want to store your RDL report in SSRS server, then you can manually create a folder and save your ReportDefinition. If your requirement is to save your report in Server project then you can place under any folder and mention the reportpath to ReportViewer.
What is the ReportPath that should be used?	If you want to use local RDLC report then you have to set as show below (ApplicationName.Folder.NameOftheReport). LightSwitchApplication.ReportTemplate.GroupingAggReport.rdlc You can find our locally installed sample from the following location. Syncfusion\LightSwitch\$version$\SL\ReportViewer\ If its SSRS server report then you have to specify relative path to the report located on ReportServer as shown in the below(/FolderName/ReportName). ReportViewer.ReportPath="/ReportProject/InvoiceParameterReport";
What are the properties that should be used for the rdlc file? Embedded or content? Copy Always, etc?	You have to set “Build Action” property as “Embedded Resource” to load the report in Light switch Silverlight ReportViewer.
Appreciate any help as the online documentation is very poor.	We have already created task for updating our ReportViewer Online UG documentation. We will let you know once our Online UG documentation updated successfully.

Our LightSwitch Silverlight ReportViewer extension didn’t have support to Load/View SSRS RDL reports. But we can achieve this by using Silverlight ReportViewer as custom control inside lightswitch screen. We have prepared a sample for you reference and it can be downloaded from below location.

Set the WCF service URL to the ReportServiceURL property as shown below. ReportViewer.ReportServiceURL="/ReportingService.svc"; //viewer.ReportServiceURL="http://localhost:50073/ReportingService.svc";

If you still face any issues, could you please share the reproducible sample/report definition with us? It would be very helpful for us to analyze this issue and provide you a better solution at the earliest.
