reportserverservice log massive and no responce from default page

  • 2 problems - i cant access the http://localhost/reports folder - keeps coming up Directory Listing Denied, so i allowed directory browsing, it goes thru to http://localhost/Reports/Pages/Folder.aspx - request http status 404: not found

     

    Also, the log has suddenly become massive 30meg every 10 mins - investigating it is writing the same 4 lines every second! Any ideas?

  • ok, found a link to http://support.microsoft.com/Default.aspx?kbid=885286 for the log file problem - no fix, you have to ring product support

    Still havent a clue avout the webserver problem

  • Reinstall Reporting Services.

    It sounds like IIS or the Reporting Services Service has lost some configuration. IIS should be bringing up reporting services, without any meddling with IIS configuration.

  • This is how we controlled the issue.  The settings are explained in the following location:

    http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/rsadmin/htm/arp_configfiles_v1_1pia.asp

    We modified the file: ReportingServicesService.exe.config in the C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL\Reporting Services\ReportServer\bin folder.

    The modifications were changed the DefaultTraceSwitch from the default of 3 (see below) to 1

    DefaultTraceSwitch - Specifies the level of information that is reported to trace logs. Each level includes the information reported by all lower-numbered levels. Disabling tracing is not recommended.

    0= Disables tracing

    1= Exceptions and restarts

    2= Exceptions, restarts, warnings

    3= Exceptions, restarts, warnings, status messages (default)

    4= Verbose mode

    The files created now are much smaller.  I would think even setting it to 2 would produce smaller files.

    Also, the following setting was modified KeepFilesForDays from 14 to 3.

    KeepFilesForDays - Specifies the number of days after which a trace log file will be deleted. 0 to max integer. The default is 14.

    Hope this helps.  We are at the base install of the Reporting Server (not at any SP level).

    Subsequently, I also found this earlier post with similar recommendations.
