Report Manager help URL set to http, not https


Report Manager help URL set to http, not https Darren

sql server reporting services:
We have an SSL cert in place on our production platform and for some reason
the help link in report manager is calling the help page through http, not
https and subsequently the call fails.

Does anyone know if it is possible to change the link to https somewhere in
the config files?
All other links work OK.

Thanks

Hi Darren,

I have the same problem...

Did you manage to find a resolution?

Cant seem to find one on the newsgroups.

Many Thanks

This is a known issue in RS. There is unfortunately no work around.

Thanks for this. In the end I got the firewall config changed to allow http
as well as https.

Is this a known issue only with the "Help" link OR also with links such as
"Home", "My Subscriptions" etc in Report Manager?

Alex and Darren,
Sorry to disagree with Daniel Reib. There is a work around.

1) Access the IIS Manager
2) Go to the Default Web Site. Find the 'Reports' virtual directory and
expand
3) Locate the folders that have a sub folder ‘help’.
4) Right click and select properties
5) Go to the Directory Security tab, click the ‘Edit’ button under Secure
communications
6) Uncheck the checkbox for “Require secure channel (SSL)”.
7) All the sub folders with that contain a help file don’t require
SSL ‘de’, ‘en’, ‘es’, ‘fr’, ‘it’, ‘ja’, ‘ko’.

Your Help link should work. The Help files really don't require SSL anyway.
