SQL Server Reporting Services configuration error

  • Hi,

    I have installed SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services and configured successfully. But now Iam trying to install in different domain. But getting unknown errors

    1.Installed reporting services(files only) and applied SP3 in server A

    2.Configured reporting services using reporting services manager and created the report server n reportserverTempDB(in server B) successfully.

    4.Entered the URL http://servername/reportserver ->getting the below error:

    The report server cannot open a connection to the report server database. A connection to the database is required for all requests and processing. (rsReportServerDatabaseUnavailable) Get Online Help

    Login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITY\ANONYMOUS LOGON'

    5.Entered the URL http://servername/reports ->getting the following error

    An error occurred while parsing the configuration file. The ReportServerVirtualDirectory element is missing.

    Then edited the Rswebapllication.config in C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.1\Reporting Services\ReportManager.

    6. Then again entered the URL http://servername/reports ->getting the following error:

    The report server is not responding. Verify that the report server is running and can be accessed from this computer.

    I installed and configured reporting services(files only installation) many times, but every time it resulted in different errors.

    I already uninstalled nad installed couple of times, but still getiing the same errors point 4 and point 6.

    Please advice me

  • I just want to make sure I understand your architecture. You have Reporting Services installed on ServerA and the Report Server databases installed on ServerB, correct?

    If this is correct then the account which the Reporting Services service is running under will need to be granted access to the SQL Server on ServerB with appropriate rights within the ReportServer databases.

  • Thanks,

    Server A and B are running under same domain having same same service account ABC\ServiceAccount. Reporting Services also running under ABC\ServiceAccount. But still Iam getting this error.

    Previously, I installed and configured reporting services in the same scenario and was successfull and Iam following the same But getting this errors. Iam stuck here, plz give some idea!!

  • Could you give me some idea on how to resolve this

  • Try disabling anonymous logins in IIS for those sites and enabling windows integrated authentication.

  • I tried disabling anonymous authentication, But still the same error.

    Report Server n ReportServerTempDB were created successfully on Server B, here I configured Reporting Services on Server A.

    But When Entering the URL http://servername/reports n http://servername/reportserver

    Onething here is, My server A name has Number 1 at the end like ,server A1. Is this going to create any problems
