Report Designer Install

I am trying to add report designer to a new development machine (XP
professional sp2) that has VS 2003 installed. The machine does not have IIS
installed. I am using the MSDN August 2005 DVD 2432.10 that has SQL &
Reporting Services. I keep getting the dialog box indicating a missing IIS
and ASP.net then an abend. I used to get a dialog box where I could select
the client options, but the install stops before presenting the options.
Anyone else encountering this condition?
TIA - RonWhat is happening is that you are trying to install everything, not just the
designer. RS requires IIS to be installed. The designer does not.

But where do I designate to just install the designer? It stops before
there is any "selection" screen.

takes awhile for the next button to appear. After that I was told I already
have it installed so I could not get to the screen you would want. If setup
is crashing after you leave the spot where it tells you that you are missing
IIS and asp.net then I don't know what to tell you.

Yes, those are the messages I get, and when I press next I only get a
sccreen where cancel is the only option. I just don't get the "selection"
screen.
Thanks for looking. Ron

for the next button to show up. Did you wait a few minutes. I know I waited
at least a minute. It is doing something in the background and eventually
the next button shows up.

Report deployment connection error

Hi,

I'm using the reports designer in Visual Studio 2005 Professional and have successfully been deploying reports to my client's server for several months. Now I can't deploy any reports, when I try Visual Studio almost hangs, tries for about 5 minutes to deploy a single report and then fails with an error message:

TITLE: Microsoft Report Designer

A connection could not be made to the report server http://winserver/ReportServer.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:

The operation has timed out (System.Web.Services)

BUTTONS:

OK

It used to ask me for username/password for the server (credentials), now it doesn't do that. I can go to the reports server and reports interface pages in my browser OK. The reports build without any errors.

Has anyone experienced this? Any ideas on how to get it working again?

Regards,

Greg

Check for your IE settings. I think that must have changed.

In the client machine, IE Options -> Connection -> LAN settings that - check if both these 2
options were checked/enabled -
1. Automatically detect settings
2. Use Automatic Configuration Script
The option #2 was causing HTTP request from VS go through the proxy server and
passing anonymous request (401)

Or any other Security settings from a machine where deployment works fine.

|||

Hi,

Thanks for your response. I checked the settings in IE and all LAN Settings options are unchecked. Is this correct?

I am connecting through a VPN so that might be causing a problem (all options unchecked for VPN connection settings in IE). I will try directly connecting to the client's LAN and see if it works.

Regards,

Greg
