MySQL open source reporting services

I am currently working on a project where reporting services are required. The database back end is built using MySQL and I would like to have something with similar functionality to say SSRS.

Does anyone have any experience with an open source solution for this? Any they would particularly recommend? It would have to be accessed via a browser.

Thanks,

David

For the PHP MYSQL Reporting tool, try the Smart Report Engine You can use it as a native PHP engine or a larval package. with very few lines of code like the following code example, you can create a professional auto dynamic report from your project.

$report = new ReportOptions(SRE_PUBLIC_REPORT);
$report->select_tables(array("items"))
       ->set_grouping(array("country"))
       ->select_all_fields();
$engine = new CustomEngine($report);
$report_path = $engine->create_report();

For MySQL reporting you could try one of the following. Unfortunately none of them are open source.

When you say "reporting service" I suppose you mean "report programming and generating system." Is that right?

These all work fine with MySQL.

Unfortunately all these reporting systems are engaged in some ridiculous spin where they're telling themselves they are "business intelligence solutions" rather than report programming schemes. So, you'll do some digging through the marketing BS to find out solutions to simple problems like "how do I list sales of microbrew beer by zip code" or whatever you want to report about.
