If you notice correctly you can see your SQL server reporting service is not patched to SP1.I would recommend you to first apply SP1 for reporting service  and then try to follow advise mentioned in below article.

It is same which Allen Li pointed

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/971268

I am not sure this could be workaround but you should give it a try.

There are 2 reporting services mode running one is sharepoint integrated and other is native try upgrading native and can you please tell which one is giving the error.

Also if you see the screenshot pasted by you one has stand edition other has enterprise .Is is correct ?

Hi Centaur1963,

Im writing to follow up with you on this post. As other post, if the evaluation period error was resolved, if yes, I would mark the Shankys post as answer for the original question, For the new question about upgrading SQL Server 2012 SP1 in Discovery Report, I suggest you post another thread, so that more forum members can involve into the thread and help you out.
