Error when starting Report Manager

When trying to start report manager (http://localhost/reports) I get the following error. I have since given access to ASPNET and IUSR_<machinename> rights to the listed path & file, but still get same error. Any ideas? Thanks.

Parser Error Message: An error occurred loading a configuration file: Access to the path 'C:\Inetpub\wwwroot_sps2003\web.config' is denied.

Source Error:

[No relevant source lines]


Source File: C:\Inetpub\wwwroot_sps2003\web.config Line: 0

Try giving the report server web service account read permission on the folder in the error message.

It's working. Since we have Sharepoint and other things on there I had to specify the port and sql instance: http://someservername:8080/Reports$sql2005 this worked! Report manager comes up now.

Thanks!

You'll need to do some more work to make things work reliably:

1) in the rsreportserver.config file, change URLRoot to include the URL above. This allows links in e-mail deliveries to be accurate.

2) check your report manager configuration file and see if you need to set the reportserverurl property rather than the reportservervirtualdirectory property - when using a custom port you usually need to use reportserverurl. Note that these elements are mutually exclusive.

Good to hear you're up and running.
