ReportViewer with ASP.net MVC 3

asp.net-mvc-3reporting-servicesreportviewer

I have developed SSRS report and deployed on server. The report has dropdown, based on dropdown selection report data varies since this dropdown value is passed as Parameter to report. The report works just fine when accessed directly.

Now I have integrated this report into my ASP.net MVC 3 application using ReportViewer.
When report is accessed thru web application page appears to be loading correctly but when I click on View Report it shows message "Loading" for a while and then displays nothing.
I'm clueless on this and not understanding this behavior at all.

UPDATE

I found solution at https://stackoverflow.com/a/2547454/287100

This is a particular question where you need to combine ASP.NET web-forms with MVC, which is perfectly fine. Because, ReportViewer control won't work if you place it in an MVC view, as it requires ViewState.

Server 2016 – update reboots

Seems like the only answer is to disable ‘Reboot’ in Task Scheduler UpdateOrchestrator and rename the Reboot file to prevent Windows re-enabling the schedule again… It would be bad enough having a desktop rebooting of it’s own accord – but a server??

C# – File Upload ASP.NET MVC 3.0

You don't use a file input control. Server side controls are not used in ASP.NET MVC. Checkout the following blog post which illustrates how to achieve this in ASP.NET MVC.

So you would start by creating an HTML form which would contain a file input:

@using (Html.BeginForm("Index", "Home", FormMethod.Post, new { enctype = "multipart/form-data" }))
{
    <input type="file" name="file" />
    <input type="submit" value="OK" />
}

and then you would have a controller to handle the upload:

public class HomeController : Controller
{
    // This action renders the form
    public ActionResult Index()
    {
        return View();
    }

    // This action handles the form POST and the upload
    [HttpPost]
    public ActionResult Index(HttpPostedFileBase file)
    {
        // Verify that the user selected a file
        if (file != null && file.ContentLength > 0) 
        {
            // extract only the filename
            var fileName = Path.GetFileName(file.FileName);
            // store the file inside ~/App_Data/uploads folder
            var path = Path.Combine(Server.MapPath("~/App_Data/uploads"), fileName);
            file.SaveAs(path);
        }
        // redirect back to the index action to show the form once again
        return RedirectToAction("Index");        
    }
}
