Question

I am trying to configure Reporting Services 2005SP2 on a machine with SQL 2008 on another hosting the ReportServer DB.

When I create the ReportServerDB the DB is created as version C.0.9.45:

When, afterwards, I try to initialise Reporting Services, I get an error about an incorrect version number. Reporting Services created a ReportServer DB version C.0.9.45 but now expects a version C.0.8.54.

Changing compatibility settings of the DB doesn’t have an effect. And changing the version number sproc in the DB to return what Reporting Services wants to hear only delays the crash until initialisation has started.

Any ideas?

I got a reply from microsoft support saying that it is impossible on the same box.
