NET installed. Don't worry when the wizard reports that ASP. On the wizard's Feature Selection dialog, just choose that you only want the Report Designer. NET designer. In Chapter 4, we'll show you how to customize your Visual Studio. We'll first use the Design Tools in Chapter 3 when we show how to use Design wizards, and we really go to town with the Report Designer in Chapter 6.
After installation, if you have issues deploying reports, and you're getting messages like: "The underlying connection was closed: Could not establish trust relationship with remote server. Figure 2. However, before you run Setup the installation wizard , step through this checklist:. Initially, the IIS server must have the Default website enabled. Decide where the Reporting Services' own catalog database is going to be installed.
Do you have sufficient privileges on your database? Make sure you have an account that is a member of the sysadmins role on the SQL Server to use during installation.
If you need to run Setup with command-line options, consider our security caveats, and especially consider encrypting any Setup ini file.
During installation of Reporting Services, the bootstrapper installation wizard logs on to the SQL Server used to host the Report Server catalog databases with the wizard's account credentials, using "Trusted" connection SSPI security.
This means the target SQL Server must expose a login account that corresponds to the rights granted to the user running the wizard. As we said earlier, it's easiest if the wizard is run with Administrator credentials as SQL Server automatically creates a login account for all system administrators. If the domain administrator won't let you have access to the Administrator account and you choose to use an ordinary Domain User account, it must belong to the System Administrators sysadmin SQL Server Security "Server Role" at least during the install.
The wizard will check up on you to ensure that it is and won't continue if it isn't. Accounts that are only members of the Database Creators dbcreator role can't do that.
Of course, using a trusted connection is by far the most sensible route from a security standpoint, but there may be situations where you have the SQL Server in one Active Directory Domain, the Reporting Services in another Active Directory Domain, and no formal Active Directory Trust between the two Domains.
Perhaps you have no Active Directories at all. We told you it would be easier just to steal the Administrator's password. You can instruct the wizard to use a SQL account that belongs to the sysadmin role instead. We discuss these options in the next section.
Setting ACLs on files should be your first line of defense, but you should also be concerned about what happens to those files when they are deleted. Before you edit and save any values in your copy of the template file, encrypt your copy of the file right-click it, select Properties, on the General tab click the "Advanced" button, and then select Encrypt contents to secure data.
In addition, consider the permissions on this option file. Well, if you don't follow our advice you might as well just write the SA password on a Post-it note and stick it on the monitor for all to see. Consider that when you delete an unencrypted ini file, any credentials or other information it contained could be easily "harvested" from the disk.
A wealth of utilities floating around the Internet for free are for doing just that, as anyone watching one of the crime shows on TV would know. If you haven't, you should be aware that SQL Authentication, which is what will by default be used over an unencrypted connection, is fairly insecure. One final thought for the paranoid:.
It only takes someone listening to grab the credentials while on the wire and immediately create their own backdoor sysadmin account. Yes, folks, we've seen this kind of thing happen in some environments when the door was only open for a few seconds.
Sleep well tonight. It's possible to scale out and configure a number of IIS servers to all use the same Report Server database. Such a configuration is called a web farm. If during the installation you instruct the wizard to use a pre-existing Report Server database, the wizard asks if you want to setup a web farm and leads you through the installation steps.
There may be occasions when you want to take a stand-alone Reporting Services installation and create or join it to an existing web farm. With some configuration file editing and some command-line utilities rsconfig. We briefly discuss some these utilities to provide an overview of what they do in "Installing Reporting Services on a Web Farm," later in this chapter.
As with the installation of the Report Designer, if the wizard cannot find a qualifying [9] installed SQL Server , it asks you for the character product key of a qualifying version.
To comply with the license agreement, you need a SQL Server server license for every machine on which the Reporting Services Server components are installed. As we said earlier, we're not licensing experts, and licensing arrangements change and are different from locale to locale, so please check your license arrangements carefully. The command-line options are typically supplied as parameters to Setup. You'll find a template ini file in your Reporting Services distribution media. The template is well documented and explains all of the options.
It's convenient and a good idea to copy this template and edit the values you need. Next, launch the Setup. If you've already received an SSL web server certificate from a public Certificate Authority or from an Enterprise Certificate Services Certificate Authority within your Active Directory Domain and created and installed an SSL web server certificate for the web server hosting Reporting Services, you'll have little to do but answer a few simple questions in the following Reporting Services Setup dialogs.
If not, then you might need to take a couple of side trips to make sure this SSL infrastructure is installed.
