dumb question...

After configuring exactly as specified in reporting services custom security, when I try to hit report manager, I keep on getting the error:

Invalid URI: The format of the URI could not be determined.

It does not redirct me to UILogin.aspx page but forwards me to Pages/Folder.aspx and gives this error.

Please if possible let me know ASAP.

I have the following in "rsreportserver.config" file

<UrlRoot>http://<computername>/reportserver</UrlRoot>

I have tried using "localhost" instead of computer name in the above line. Secondly, when I hit report manager, I thought it should redirect me to UILogin.aspx. It does not. And even if it did, I would like to know how it would do that because in report server, you specify the url in the <forms> tag. here there is no such tag that would make it redirect to UILogon.aspx.

I have the following in Web.config file of Report Manager

<authentication mode="Windows" />
<identity impersonate="false" />

I have the following in RsWebApplication.config file

<UI>
<ReportServerUrl></ReportServerUrl>
<ReportServerVirtualDirectory>ReportServer</ReportServerVirtualDirectory>
<CustomAuthenticationUI>
<loginUrl>UILogin.aspx</loginUrl>
<UseSSL>False</UseSSL>
</CustomAuthenticationUI>
</UI>

Thanks.

Thanks.

Solved it

There were 2 issues

the UILogon.aspx file was not under pages(wonder what that would do?)

Secondly, changed the ordering in RSWebApplication.config file to

<UI>
<CustomAuthenticationUI>
<loginUrl>/Pages/UILogon.aspx</loginUrl>
<UseSSL>False</UseSSL>
</CustomAuthenticationUI>
<ReportServerUrl>http://<computername>/ReportServer</ReportServerUrl>
</UI>

Finally, in the url requested

http://<computername>/Reports

I been trying to get my own sql reporting services going... but i have so many issues..

the dumb question: does SQL 2005 Reporting Services require IIS 6.0 ? Windows 2003?

thanks

Should work on xp pro . no need for windows 2003. For production deployment however, consider deploying enterprise version on windows server 2003.

Also always use iis6.0

so, iis5 does not work?
