#Error

  • I have a report that works perfectly in Visual Studio but when I deploy it to Report Manager running on my development machine one field shows #Error. I have set logging to verbose mode but I am not getting anything to show that an error occurred. I have no idea what is wrong and without an error message or code I don't know where to begin solving this - and I've been trying for some time now!

    The field in question contains the expression

    =System.Web.Security.FormsAuthentication.HashPasswordForStoringInConfigFile("abcd", "SHA1")

    and I have added a reference to System.Web in the report properties.

    Can anyone tell me how to debug a #Error or what might be wrong with this method call?

    Thanks

  • Hi,

    Are you able to solve this? If Yes, Please post how did you solve this.

    I am having the same issue but I am using some expression to calculate the percentage.

    It works fine in designe but showing #Error in Report Manager.

    Thanks,

    Divya

  • Can't remember how I got around this now. I've not seen anything like it since so can't help you, sorry.

  • What is the field doing? Usually this is an error with the data, like a divide by zero, conversions, or trying to do an operation on an incompatible data type. Are you developing the report against production data or a test db?

  • I agree with Steve. Normally it's conversion or calculation error. The twist is it works in BIDS but not when deployed (I guess with the same data). :crazy:
