Any help appreciated....

Installed Reporting Services on Win2003 machine with a SQL2000 db.
Reporting Services was installed with an IIS without default website, running
IIS5.0 Isolation mode.

When navigating to http://<hostheader>/reports I get the folllowing error...

The report server is not responding. Verify that the report server is
running and can be accessed from this computer.


When navigating to http://<hostheader>/ReportServer, the following error
occurs....


The report server is not responding. Verify that the report server is
running and can be accessed from this computer.


I have ensure the account running reports is included in the group running
the webservices. Also made the change to utilise <ReportServerURL> to the
http://<hostheader>/ReportServer.

Any assistance appreciated....

Hi, James

You either need to have the default website in IIS in order to use
Reporting Services, or you must specify a different website in which
the Reports and ReportService virtual directories will be created.

To use a different website than the Default IIS site, you will need to
change the configuration files for the report server app, service, and
report manager app. Please see the following article for more
information on how to setup RS for a non-Default website:

RS 2005 BOL => http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms155921.aspx
couldn't find the equivalent BOL article for RS2000 in the MSDN, so
here is a link to an article on the web that will suffice:
http://www.awprofessional.com/articles/article.asp?p=357694&seqNum=3&rl=1

Have fun!

All resolved, needed to ensure that the web server was not running in IIS5.0
isolation mode.

Thanks.
