I installed for the first time reporting services on an instance of SQL Server

  • 0

I installed for the first time reporting services on an instance of SQL Server 2008 R2 Enterprise edition. The two databases are created and everything seems to be as a flawless installation. But, when I surf to the reporting site (http://SQLserverName:80/ReportServer_InstanceName) I only get a few html rendered markup code like title and version, but no user interface like buttons, colors, overviews, menu’s etc.

The following is the returned HTML code from that url:

<html>
<head>
<meta name="Generator" content="Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services Version 10.0.1600.22">
<title>SQLserverName/ReportServer_InstanceName - /</title>
</head>
<body><H1> SQLserverName /ReportServer_ InstanceName - /</H1><hr>
<pre></pre><hr>
Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services Version 10.0.1600.22 
</body>
</html>

I suspect that something went wrong in the installation, but I don’t know what exactly. I don’t have any problems with authentication (did it all under domain admin account even for the SQL, …this is only a test case setup, so I can play with it). Also I’m a noob to this.

Can someone point me out or give me a little hint on this phenomenon?

    Try going to http://sqlservername/reports. The report server url (the one you listed) is the web service url.
