No Menu in Reportmanager?

  • Hi,

    i initially logged in to my locally installed Reporting Server. But there is no Menu. I see no Items like "New Folder", "Upload Report" etc.

    I believe it is a matter of privileges, but I don't no where to set them?

    Thanks for your help.

    Tobe

  • If you have the rights to create rights, there should be a link in the upper right corner of the reports management page for "Site Settings". That's where you control rights and such from.

  • No, there isn't.. 😉

  • Are you a local admin on the computer SSRS is running on?

  • Yes I am. It's Windows 7, perhaps this is the cause?

  • That wouldn't be it. At least not directly. I'm running SSRS 2008 on Win 7 on my desktop right now, and it works there.

    I had to handle something similar on a server recently, but I didn't keep the bookmarks on the pages I used to solve it. I just did a Bing search for "SSRS security" and dug my way through pages. There was at least one registry edit to make, if I remember correctly.

  • Meanwhile I found out, if I start internet explorer "as Administrator", it works. If I just doubleclick ie I have the described problem.

    So, I think, the cause is found.

    Thank you!

  • Cool biz.

  • THANK YOU!! I am also running Windows 7 and have been trying to figure out this same problem myself for weeks. I thought it had something to do with SQL security roles but I was getting nowhere. Running Explorer as administrator did it. :-):-):-)
