c# - Passing Credentials to Sql Report Server 2008

Question

I am pretty new in C# and my English is not so good - sorry in advance if I miss a point.

I tried to build an ASP.NET web site with a ReportService control. As you might already know, SSRS 2008 does not allow anonymous login. So, I tried to pass Credentials to SSRS which will be stored inside my web page so that users will be able to see the report without logging in.

I found the code below and put it on my WebForm, but I'm having a problem with the report parameters.

• If there are default values for the report parameters, the below code works okay.

• But, if I try to change the value of a parameter, the whole page is
  refreshed and before I click the "View Report" button, all
  parameters are reset to default or null values.

Any suggestion on how to avoid refreshing the whole page, or another way to pass the login info to SSRS? Thanks a lot in advance.

        return false;
     }
}

I really haven't messed with SSRS - but my ASP.NET hat tells me you may want to wrap that stuff in an if (!IsPostBack) block to keep it from running on the page refresh. My guess is that ReportViewer1.ServerReport.Refresh() pulls the default values again.

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    if (!this.IsPostBack) 
    {
        ReportViewer1.Width = 800;
        ReportViewer1.Height = 600;
        ReportViewer1.ProcessingMode = ProcessingMode.Remote;
        IReportServerCredentials irsc =new CustomReportCredentials("administrator", "MYpassworw", "domena");
        ReportViewer1.ServerReport.ReportServerCredentials = irsc;
        ReportViewer1.ServerReport.ReportServerUrl = new Uri("http://192.168.0.1/ReportServer/");
        ReportViewer1.ServerReport.ReportPath = "/autonarudzba/listanarudzbi";
        ReportViewer1.ServerReport.Refresh();
    }
}
