Hi,

I installed SQL Server 2005, worked on it. Later added the Reporting Services component. During installation, used default instance, default system login. After installation, while running the Reporting Services Configuratin Manager , in Report Server Status , on clicking start getting the error :

System.ServiceProcess.TimeoutException: Time out has expired and the operation has not been completed.

at System.ServiceProcess.ServiceController.WaitForStatus(ServiceControllerStatus desiredStatus, TimeSpan timeout)

at ReportServicesConfigUI.Panels.ServerInformationPanel.StartStopServiceTask(Boolean start)

on giving http://localhost/reports - getting error page not found both in IE and Mozilla.

Somebody please help me out.

Regards,

Reshma

Have a look through the log files under C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.1\Reporting Services\LogFiles. Also, refer to the troubleshooting steps in BOL - http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa256414(SQL.80).aspx. Good luck 🙂

Hi ,

Thanks for the reply, I had in the meanwhile made a lot of corrections editing aspregii, granting permission etc, but the latest error i now get :

on typing http://localhost/reportserver in IE6:

Reporting Services Error

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The report server has encountered a configuration error. See the report server log files for more information. (rsServerConfigurationError)

Access to the path 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.3\Reporting Services\ReportServer\RSReportServer.config' is denied.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SQL Server Reporting Services

Any hints,

Regards,

I guess there seems to be a big flaw in the initial set up of the sql related with reporting services. Better un-install the existing file and re-install the same. More information related with Configuration of the Reporting services through IIS please find the link below and try to implement the methodology,.
