I have looked at the datasources of a report that works and one that does
not, both have the credentials stored in the metadata database both are
shared data sources, both use the same SQL credentials and both databases
are set with the credentials authorizing database permit and read
permissions. I double checked the security settings on the report server
and both shared data sources and both reports are set with the same security
settings (domain users with browser permissions)
I have tried deleting the reports and redeploying with the same results. I
just can not seem to find what is different between the reports that work
and the ones that don't. They are in fact both in the same report Solution
on my VS.net development station.
