Actually I just figured it out. I'm running on Windows Vista Business edition. For Vista you have to install Sql Server 2005 SP2.I installed SP2 and I don't get the error anymore. Andy

Hi there... I did install the Sp2 to, but that didn't quite resolve everything. Know it's working fine... i had a great help in http://www.learnreportingservices.com/ It's a great place, with videos teaching us how to solve a lot of problems... Thanks Best regards Rui

I found another solution for this. If the problem occurs after a reinstallation, try to change the security rights of this file, in order to replace current rights for its primary object: C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.[X]\Reporting Services\ReportServer\rsreportserver.config Software Factory services http://www.tisa-sistemas.com.ar

The workaround suggested by Ariel worked for me as well ! I gave all permissions to all users (DEV system) for the file rsreportserver.config and then the Reporting Services config tool started properly.
