Help!! RS REPORT Manager is not lanching!!

Hi all,
I have been working on Reporting Services for a while I build and deploy
reports. Just today I tried to go on htt://myserver/reports >>> and I get
the following error:
<Error Message Starts
Client found response content type of 'text/html', but expected 'text/xml'.
The request failed with the error message: -- <html> <head>
<title>Server Unavailable </title> </head> <body> <h1><font
face=Verdana color=#ff3300>Server Application Unavailable </font></h1>
<p> <font face=Verdana> The web application you are attempting
to access on this web server is currently unavailable.  Please hit the
"Refresh" button in your web browser to retry your request. </p> <p>
<b>Administrator Note: </b> An error message detailing the cause of this
specific request failure can be found in the application event log of the
web server. Please review this log entry to discover what caused this
error to occur. </p> </body> </html> --.

Home
<Error Message End>

When I type http://myserver/reportserver >> I get the default page with a
list of my reports and can lauch one.

I WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE ANYONE'S INPUT ON WHY MY REPORT MANAGER IS NOT
LANCHING EVEN THOUGH REPORTSERVER IS WORKING FINE?
THANK YOU IN ADVANCE

I got the following error when I ran
http://myserver/ReportServer/ReportService.asmx ?
<<<<
Server Application Unavailable

However when I ran any of my reports that were deployed to the reports
server sucj as:
http://vsvradaher/ReportServer?%2fMDXSamples%
2fMDX_Expression&rs:Command=Render
I had no problem rendering the reports.

Also, I stopped and started the RS service in the Windows
AdministrativeTools, with no avail.

This is nuts. It just happened suddenly.
I really want to avaoid uninstalling and reinstalling RS.
I am tempted to say it is a Reporting Services - IIS issue.
What are the recommended configurations for that?

Thanks again in advance.

Well,

1- The "DafaultAppPool" under "Application Pools" in IIS, where "Reports"
and "ReportServer" Applications reside, had in its ("DafaultAppPool")
properties "Performance" TAB had the "Idle timeout" checked. I unchecked
"Idle timeout", Even though I started my services again ( for Report server
under Control panel, that did not restart the report server applications.

2- Also, In IIS, under "Default Web Site" I CHECKED permissions on the
"reportserver" BIn directory to:
READ - Directory Browsing - and to execute permissions:Script and
Executables.

I am not sure that whatever I did here, is kosher for IIS / RS security,
and If it is , I have no clue how these permissions were off.
I would appreciate it if anyone can guide me to the propper preset
permissions of IIS - Reporting Services.
