Error 403 and Unable to Connect Error.

First Error:

I am currently trying to get my reporting services to run on a site other than the default website... on my test server are three sites listed in my IIS: Default Web Site, Microsoft Share Point Administration, and Data Test Site.

My ReportingServer and Reports directories run fine in my Local Web Site but when i add the Directories to my Data Test Site only the Reports Directory runs... the ReportServer does not run and gives me :

You are not authorized to view this page

You might not have permission to view this directory or page using the credentials you supplied.

If you believe you should be able to view this directory or page, please try to contact the Web site by using any e-mail address or phone number that may be listed on the 192.168.1.249 home page.

You can click Search to look for information on the Internet.

HTTP Error 403 - Forbidden
Internet Explorer

Second Error:

I was trying to fix the problem above and i do not think i changed anything i was just looking through the settings between the two sites and somehow this error came up:

Error

The underlying connection was closed: Unable to connect to the remote server.

Home

I am not sure what i did or if i even did anything i was just looking through the settings. compairing the two sites and now i get the error above.

I found a solution that fixed both of my problems....

Good Evening Anderson!
I had some "weird" problems immediately after I installed the SQL2005 JUNE CTP when initially launching RS. I do not know for cetain what your problems relates to above - but for some strange reason with my problem which I getting similar issues to your post was that the Virtual Directories (Reports and ReportServer) within IIS were somehow messed up!
So I deleted the two virtual directories and recreated and ensured I was not using 'Enable Anonymous Access' and I specified Integrated Windows Authentication.
Restarted IIS and everything was ok after that.
What version of Visual Studio are you using -? I had similar problems with bad requests without registering RS after install to .Net as well.
Best Regards,
Joe|||

Hi, Joe

Thanks for your interest.

I was having some trouble with the RS db. I've followed the steps below and now everything's ok:

1. Unistall RS;
2. Ensure RS database is deleted;
3. Reinstall RS;
4. Use RS Configuration Tool to setup everything.
Actually, I'm using SQL2K5April CTP and VS2K5 Beta 2.

Best regards,

Anderson

|||Hello Anderson!
these little things you have to go through to make things work sometimes!
Did you know the August SQL 2005 CTP is now available as well?
Best regards,
joe

Microsoft MVP, Visual Developer - Visual C#Hello Peter,
I would like to know whether you have installed SQL Express on your
machine. I searched our internal database and found that a lot of similar
issue were caused by the corruption installation of SQL Express.
My suggestion is that you need to remove the SQL Express and then reinstall
the SQL Reporting Services 2000.
Please let me know if this helps.
Sincerely,
Wei Lu
