I'm using Windows XP and SQL SERVER 2008 and when i after configure the reporting services configuration manager when i click in the link to acess the it appears always the same error that the page is not found. I check if the is created a virtual directory in the iis and is nothing there. I tryed to change the port and asked authentication but in the port 80 it just appear http 404 - page not found. Can you help me..

Hi,Report server architecture is fundamentally changed in SQL Server 2008 by the removal of Internet Information Services (IIS) dependencies and the consolidation of applications into a single service. Therefore, you cannot see the report manager and report server virtual directories in IIS. Error 404 indicates that there is a problem with the URL configuration. To work around the issue, try the following troubleshooting methods using Report Configura:1. Open Reporting Services Configuration Manager.2. Make sure the Report Server database has been created and configured. For more information about how to create a Report Server database, please see http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms157300.aspx.3. Configure the default Web Service URL. In the Web Service URL page, use the default settings. Virtual Directory: ReportServerIP Address: All Assigned (Recommended)TCP Port: 8080 ( If you are using 32-bit Windows XP SP2, the default port is 8080. )4. Click Apply to create the URL.5. Test the URL by clicking the link in the URLs section of page.6. Configure the default Report Manager URL and virtual directory.In Report Manager URL page, enter Reports for virtual directory.7. Click Apply8. Test the URL by clicking the link in the URLs section of page. For more information, please see http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb630447.aspx.If there are any more questions, please let me know.Thanks.***Xiao Min Tan***Microsoft Online Community***

Thanks for your help. When i was creating the report server database i use the format <servername>\<instancename> when i click test connection appers an error that "could not connect to the server ... error 25". i'm trying to connect to my local server.

HiI am having a similar problem on Windows XP (SQL Server 2008). I have gone through the RS configuration tool and created the Web Service URL, Database and Report Managaer URLand all said they were succesfully created, but when I click ont he hyperlink for either I get a Page Cannot Be Found error. Any ideas of what else it might be?ThanksDave

I don't know if this might help somebody searching in the future, but I found that I had to configure the Web Service URL and Report Manager URL to use a port other than port 80 - I set it to port 8080 instead and I was able to successfully browse to the configured URLs.Regards,Lee

Hi friends. I have a similar problem, and I put like default port 8080. But when I click on the link below appears a login form asking me an user and a passwordfor connecting me. I put theaccount and password of the administrator of my computer, but after trying 3 times appears me the blank page with the 401"UNAUTHORIZED" error. How Can I solve this?I expect you could help me!Many thanks!

HiI solved this by:changing the default web site on my local iis to use port 81 insteadsetting RS to use port 80making sure nothing else was using port 80Seemed to work after that

Similar issue. I had an issue with the report manager URL (http://servername/Reports) pulling up a 404 page when I tried to access HTTP. The HTPS link worked just fine. Here is my post from another thread on the solution. Hope this helps someone. Hi. I was able to solve my issue of the Report Manager URL not working when using HTTP, but working using HTTPS. A netmon trace revealed that an HTTP 302 redirect request to the HTTPS page. I modified the rsreportserver.config file to update this line: <Add Key="SecureConnectionLevel" Value="0"/> The original value was set to 2. Here is a great post on the different values and a better explanation of the underlying issue: http://blog.hoegaerden.be/2009/05/24/reporting-services-2008-and-ssl/ Jason Ogle MCITP Enterprise Administrator
