using images from external link
Hello,I tried to use an image from a url and got the error:"[rsWarningFetchingExternalImages] Images with external URL references will not display if the report is published to a report server without an UnattendedExecutionAccount or the target image(s) are not enabled for anonymous access."I found a link in the MSDN about that that explain how to configure the UnattendedExecutionAccount:http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms156302.aspxBut even after I configure it and use my user and password (I'm an admin) I still can't see the images.Any ideas?Thanks.

Hi, I have a report that has 3 external images. External Images are being picked up from a different web server and they are visible with anonymous authentication. I can see the images by typing in the full URL. I have setup the image properties to External and entered the full URL of the image. I can see the image in the designer. PROBLEM: When I deploy in production and run the report, the URL of the image changes to: http://sql64/ReportServer?%2fCRM%2fContracts%2fAcctMgmt_OneClickOffers%2fOneClickOffers_RN&rs%3aSessionID=1o00sfijy4wzhk555bvxla55&rs%3aFormat=html4.0&rs%3aImageID=b5b99f43-183a-441f-9cf1-0a61c1da9676 which does not render the image as sql64 is my internal server and not visible to the outside world. Why is the URL changing from the absolute URL that I entered in design mode to an embeded one? Please help SajjadSM
