Be sure to use the Report Server URL, not the Report Manager URL.

Hello, a

Where can I find, or how can I get the Report Server URL, not the Report Manager URL.

I an running MS, SB Server 2003 R2, Premium edition. I have install SQL 2005, and SP2.

Hi ESQ-99999,

If your Report Manager virtual directory named ReportManager_VirtualDirectory lives on a web site working on the port number port on the machine named machine (which could be the computer name in your network or a fully qualified domain-name if the computer is accesible on Internet), then your Report Manager url looks like this:

http://<machine>:<port>/<ReportManager_VirtualDirectory>

The default name for the Report Manager virtual directory is Reports.

If you are trying to access this url from your local machine, where Report Server and Report Manager are installed, you can use localhost instead of the machine name:

http://<localhost>:<port>/<ReportManager_VirtualDirectory>

If the web site is SSL and your security level (set using the config tool) is at least 1, then the Report Manager url looks like this:

https://<machine>:<port>/<ReportManager_VirtualDirectory>

https://<localhost>:<port>/<ReportManager_VirtualDirectory>

If your web site is working on the default port (80 for not SSL and 443 for SSL), you can ignore the argument <port> in the previous urls:

http://<machine>/<ReportManager_VirtualDirectory>

https://<machine>/<ReportManager_VirtualDirectory>

Hi ESQ-99999,

My mistake reading your question. I was under the impression you were asking about the Report Manager url.

The Report Server url follows the same rules as the Report Manager url, except the name of the virtual directory, which should be the name of the Report Server virtual directory.

http://<machine>:<port>/<ReportServer_VirtualDirectory> or

http://<localhost>:<port>/<ReportServer_VirtualDirectory

If the web site hosting the Report Server url is SSL, the url starts with https intstead of http.

If the port number is the default (80 for not SSL or 443 for SSL), then you can ignore the argument <port> in the previous urls.

You can find the Report Server url in the Report Server configuration file in the node <UrlRoot> for all the security levels (0-3), or in the Report Manager configuration file in the node <ReportServerUrl> for the security levels 1-3.

The Report Server and Report Manager configuration files are located here:

%Program Files%\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.X\Reporting Services\ReportServer\RSReportServer.config

%Program Files%\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.X\Reporting Services\ReportManager\RSWebApplication.config
