Deserialization failed: The type initializer for 'Microsoft.ReportDesigner.Drawing.RptStyle

I have VS2003 and VS2005 installed as well as SQL Server 2000 and SQL Server 2005 Tools. I have RS2000 and RS2005 installed. RS2000 works fine in VS2003. When using VS2005 and opening a Microsoft sample project for 2005, I get the error listed in the subject line.

When trying to create a new project and connecting to an Oracle database or a SQL Server 2005 database, I get the following error: "A connection cannot be made to the database. Set and check the connection string." The connection works fine when the test button is clicked, but fails when continuing in the wizard.

Any suggestions. We are trying to migrate from RS2000 to RS2005 and nothing in 2005 works.

We're gettiing the same error on 8 machines at our company. We opened a ticket with MS and they closed it tell us to reinstall XP on the PCs. None have agreed to let us do this without knowing if it will work. If anyone has a clue why this is happening we'd really like to know.|||

Try the cure-all for every software problem. Reformat and reinstall.

In Visual Studio, select the 'Help' tab and 'About Microsoft Visual
Studio' to get the version number, service pack, etc. Don't quote me
on this, but I believe that the latest version is 9.0.3042.
This thread may offer some insight into your error:

You should be using either SP3 or SP3a, according to your version.

Sr. Software Consultant|||yeah.. but that is the SP for the database-- not for the reporting
services side
I'll find it soon I guess
thanks

Deserialization Failed: Parent Columns and Child Columns don't have type-matching columns.

After about an hour and a half of validation, my Analysis Services database has been migrated from 2000 to Analysis Services 2005.

I am now receiving the error in the subject any time I try and access the Data Source View that was created. All dimensions and cubes cannot be processed.

I have tried editing the xml manually to no avail.

Any ideas would be much appreciated!

Would still like to know what the issue is, but I found a workaround in the meantime.

I manually edited the .dsv file, renamed the ids, and restarted OLAP. I then opened the project in Business Intelligence Studio, and manually created the DSV. After a couple of renames of calculated columns the project seems to build properly.

|||I have exactly the same problem (Migration : all OK but I can not open the dsv properties )
I don't understand your resolution.
The migration generated a file .dsv.xml
What "Id" did you rename ?
I tried to rename the data source view ID but still cannot open
I cannot open the databases through Visual Studio. Same error message.

Deserialization failed: File or assembly name Microsoft.ReportingServices.Interfaces not f

Hello,
I just installed Vault Source Control on my machine. I then opened a
Reporting Services project with rdl's in it. Every RDL that is currently in
source control opens with this error
"Deserialization failed: File or assembly name
Microsoft.ReportingServices.Interfaces, or one of its dependencies, was not
found."
If I open another instance of the MSIDE without Vault (locally) and open a
different RDL it works fine. Is this an issue with the source control or
with the way it opens the file?
Any help will be appreciated. Need to get this solved.
PonnuI think it has to do with the way the add-in is written. Some add-ins turn
on shadow-copy, which plays havoc with the report designer as our assemblies
aren't located in the VS shared location. You might be able to copy the
report designer assemlies into the IDE directory. Not sure if you can
configure the add-in not to shadow copy.

Deserialization failed: error message

This is the message I get when I try to create a report that has a lot of fields, I'm guessing that might be the problem.

Warning 1 Deserialization failed: The value must be between 0cm and 406.34921cm.
Parameter name: Width Line 10, position 30. 10 0

When you say lots of field how many are you talking about I wrote one that generated 165 valid pages with many concatenated columns.

|||

Thanks for the reply.

54 fields so doubt that is the issue.

|||sorry wrong query; the query involved returns 623 fields lol I think I will have to cut it down

|||

I don't think you are getting that many fields from a database, if you are then you need to design it because if you do files and association the core of relational design 623 can be reduced to less than 100 fields. Hope this helps.

|||

Not my database and yes I am getting that many fields as I counted them.

Thanks for the replies I have sent the query back to the provider, will see what happens.

|||

I think you are getting Excel files in database files because relational design reduces such bloat to manageable tables and columns. Post again later because with design you can move the columns to a view and just call the view for that report.

sql

Deserialization failed error. Trying to automate an RDL file.

Whenever I try to change the SQL query on the RDL (which is an XML doc) and save it under a different name (to keep the original) I get the error...
"Deserialization failed: This is an unexpected token. The expected token is 'NAME'. Line 3325 position 28"

I am checking that line number and cannot fine any correlation.

One way to replicate this error is to create a new rdl file querying any number of fields. Save it and try to edit the sql using notepad inside the <CommmandText> section of the XML file. All I am doing is adding a union query so the fields stay the same, but I keep getting that error.

My purpose behind this is to generate rdl files with different sql criteria from an orignal template rdl.

Can any of you gurus figure this out?

No anwers on this yet?|||Still waiting...
