Inscrutable XML Error message when Deploying Reports from VS.NET


Inscrutable XML Error message when Deploying Reports from VS.NET Mike H

sql server reporting services: Greetings all,

I am trying to deploy from Visual studio.NET my reporting services project
and I am recieving a strange message that I've found no reference to anywhere
on the internet nor this newsgroup:

"Server was unable to read request. --> There is an error in XML document
(1, 393). --> '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>' is not a valid Base64
text sequence. Line 8, position 76."

I even get this message when I try to deploy the sample report that comes
with reporting services. (e.g. AdventureWorks etc.)

I am running Windows XP PRO with service pack 2 and all current updates, MS
SQL SERVER 2000 Developer Edition with service pack 3, Reporting Services
Developer Edition with Service pack 2 and IIS 5.1

All help is very much appreciated.

Thanks,
Mike H.

Is your Report Server machine using a different UI language than your Visual
Studio machine? Are there any relevant messages in the Report Server log
files?

both Report Server and VS are on the same machine.

Report server log .. I haven't looked there. What kind of messages should I
be looking for?

Thanks

Mike

I don't know exactly what you could find, but look for any messages in the
logs that look relevant to the deploy error. Do you get the same error when
you upload a report via Report Manager?
