Change report host server name?


Change report host server name? Arthur Dent
4/12/2005 10:17:58 AM
sql server reporting services: We have a SSRS web setup on one of our servers, and originally it was setup
using the server's internal name. we want to be able to change this to use
the external name. When you go to a report the frame which hosts the report
output the src shows http://zweb/reportserver. we want this to show instead
http://www.mycompany.com/reportserver. how can we change this?
we tried changing the rsreportserver.config.

We want to host the reports page under our clients sites so we can give them
reports for their web stats and the like. So eg. we have a client named
www.myclient.com. under their site, we made a virtual directory which points
to the server\reports web site.

Thanks in advance,
- Arthur Dent.

You need to make sure you have edited the RSReportManager.config file to
point to the new server.

I have run into the same problem. I tried changing the baseUrl and I end
up getting a 401 error.

Found the answer to my problem here:

Also you may want to do a search on this term:
ReportServerExternalURL

It is a setting that microsoft says you need to set, but I couldn't get it
to work. I got mine to work using the link above!

Hope this helps!
