Upgrade Reporting Service 2005 to SSRS2008

  • Hi,Is that possible if we have SSRS2005 installed and we can upgrade to SSRS2008?

    Some one in our office said you cant updrade SSRS2005 TO SSRS2008 which i dont believe.

    Q.2

    Izenda reporting tool is better or SSRS is better because we have both in our company and have to wipe off one of them.

    Thanks

    Check the thread below most things you need to know about upgrade is covered so I am not sure what your coworkers are talking about.

  • I'd migrate instead of upgrade:

    1. Install SQL Server 2008 on the VM server.

    2. Back up encryption keys and ReportServer database.

    3. Restore ReportServer database and apply encryption key to the RS 2008.

    4. Use the Configuration Manager to upgrade the ReportServer database to the RS 2008 format.
