Question

I need to deploy a report using Reporting services but I’m getting this error, using visual studio to deploy the report

The permissions granted to user 'Domain\user' are insufficient for performing this operation

Right now I’m the administrator of the machine, so why I’m getting I don’t have enough permissions?

Note:

The scenario is the following:

Developing and deploying on a Windows 7. The report server is in the same machine. In conclusion, running all local.

This problem took me a whole day to figure it out. That’s why i’m posting the answer.

To resolve this problem you should follow this steps.

1. Run Internet explorer -> Internet Options -> Security->Trust Sites -> Add localhost -> Uncheck the last textbox. Also change the security level for trusted sites to low. You can change this later.
2. Go to the Reporting Services Configuration Manager -> Report Manager URL -> Copy the URL
3. Run Internet Explorer as an Administrator
4. Copy the URL, hit Enter
5. On the site -> Site Configuration -> Security -> Add your account as System Administrator permission
6. Home -> Properties -> New Role Assigment -> Add your account as Content Manager
7. Run Visual Studio and deploy, see if it worked.

That was it.

PS: If this not works: change the security level on my trusted sites to Low
