We have recently migrated from SQL Server 2014 to 2017 and have upgraded to Windows 10. Post migration activity we have installed the MasterDataServices 2017 plug in for Excel. The plug in appears on my Office 365 Excel App. However when I try to add a connection and test the connection, it either hangs or nothing happens.
After searching online I saw an option to disable and re-enable the plug in for Excel, this appears to have worked for some people. However this did not work for me either.
Since Excel is the primary front end our business users use to manage this data - we are now stuck with obsolete data. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks in advance.
Please let me know if there is any other detail that is required from my end to add clarity to this question.
Update 1 : Link to the tactical fix of disabling and enabling the plug in

I’m configure matomo server in AWS cloud with server of 4 nucleos and 16GB RAM. The database is in RDS da AWS. But when I go to all websites and select data renge, I get the folloing error message: “Oops… there was a problem during the request.” I set all recommended settings. The other options in AllWebsites return the reports.
It sounds like there is an error on the Matomo servers and that the PHP process is failing with an error.
-> Can you please get the team to check your Web server error.log for the actual error message(s) logged by the server?
Once we see the error messages we will likely be able to understand where the problem is, and help provide a solution.
I am running into an issue when trying to start a service for SQL Server 2014 Express. Each time I try to manually start my server from the SQL Server Configuration Manager, I get an error message reporting
The request failed or the service did not respond in a timely fashion. Consult the event log or other application error logs for details.
I started by looking at some posts on this and other forums for similar issues and the suggested fixes didn't solve my problem. I concluded that the error message I saw was intended as a catch-all message that describes any error that could happen. Furthermore, I concluded that I would need to consult the event logs in order to get any useful feedback on what the underlying issue is.
So I went into the service properties -> Advanced -> Dump Directory where it lead me to a collection of log files. However, the log files I saw in the directory came from a few days ago when I first set up the server. They contain some login attempts from a few days ago, but today's attempts to start the server do not have any matching logs in that location. My question is where can I find Logs for the server start up or what other tools can I use to track down what the actual issue is? any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
You can use the Event Viewer that you can find in the Control Panel. The SQL Server logs events to the Application log.
I need to modify an existing Windows CE app which gets it data from SQL Compact database (sdf) to update the database table (only 1 table) with latest records from a SQL Server Express when ever it is docked to the machine.
I came across Microsoft Sync Framework and it seems to be more than capable of enabling me to achieve my requirement. I tried one of their Walkthrough: Creating an Occasionally Connected Smart Device Application, but was not able to get the app working (the app I created based on the guide as well the sample code). The WCF service is hosted successfully and I can browse to the service from the browser as well.
I am encountering an error at the below line on the click event of SynchronizeMenuItem.
Dim syncStats As Global.Microsoft.Synchronization.Data.SyncStatistics = syncAgent.Synchronize()
Below is the trace from the output window:
'MobileSyncServices.exe' (Managed): Loaded 'System.SR.dll'

I've been trying to find a solution for this problem as I didn't come across any after 2 days hence posting it here. I've installed all the framework/ service pack which are prerequisite for this as well. Have any of you tried this walk through and encountered a similar issue? What baffles me further is, that the sample code is also failing in two of my development machines (1 is Win XP and the Win 7).
Is there any other alternative way to update table in a Windows CE device with SQL Express Server when docked?
The requirment was to find a method to overwrite an table on a docked device (connected through ActiveSync/ Sync Center), achieved this by connecting to the SQL Server directly (by specifying either ip address) from the Pocket PC.
User would specify the SQL Server credentials Under system config/ options, which would be made use of to connect to the SQL Server. Once the desired data from the Server is broght down, the compact database is updated with the relevant data.
Below web resources paved the way to solve this issue and achieve the goal.
Connecting to SQL Server Express from a Pocket PC application
Accessing SQL Server Express from the emulator (or PDA)
I have a SQL Server Reporting Services 2005 installation that has worked great for a few years now, but has been giving me occasional glitches recently.
I'm using the default reporting services website instead of embedding reports into my application, which has proven a very efficient way to deploy the reports. The OS is Windows Server 2003 and the reports are being viewed on IE8 running XP.
It's not a big deal. Refreshing the browser brings the report right up each time. I guess it might be a cacheing issue. It does scare users, so it would be nice to squash this bug.
Any ideas?

Try this (extending the "report session" timeout)

Here is a thread that might help...not sure if you tried it already.
In this case updating Microsoft.ReportViewer.WebForms.dll was a fix.
I also saw where it could be caused by a problem with NT Authority\Network Service account.
A quick "Google" with SSRS 2005 Execution "cannot be found" produced quite a few other options as well.
HTH
Take a look here :
http://blogs.msdn.com/jgalla/archive/2006/10/11/session-timeout-during-execution.aspx
This can happen when a report takes a long time to run, using a script with rs.exe to increase the RS session lifetime may well help.
I have answered this question in this thread.
It is to do with the execution context in the Session expiring.
In my case, this error ocurred only in the Browsers Internet Explorer 8 and Internet Explorer 9 with reports that takes more than 20 minutes for execute.
I solved this problem optimizing the sql query procedure ( before optimize took 30 minutes to execute ) and now takes 3 minutes.
I tried to configure increasing the session timeout in ReportManager configuration but anything solve the problem.
This error is weird because in Google Chrome and Firefox works fine!
the reason of this issue may be below:
1 - > your login has expired OR
2 - > The server on which SSRS report deployed, below services has stopped
a - > MS SQL SERVER
b - > SQL Server Agent is not running
to resolve go to the server and start these services
None of the aforementioned things worked for me. My reports aren't working from the Report browser interface, even though it used to. It does however work from the server URL.
eg) The /ReportServer context works fine, and NOT the /Reports context whilst browsing to reports.
This is ok since I can still upload reports, and our applications use the server URL.
