Hi,
If this is not the proper newsgroup for SQL Server Reporting Service
questions, please tell and hopefully where is the proper newsgroup.

I am developing an internet app via VS.Net 2003 ASP.Net, and VB  and SQL
Server 2000 based.  I would like to incorporate reporting.  I have SQL
Server 2000 Reporting Services Report Manager installed.  I was going
through the first very basic walkthrough in generating a report.  Everything
worked great.  It looks good.  However when I tried to publish the generated
report I got the following message.

"No Report Server was found at 'http://localhost/HughApp"

I had just updated the property report URL item to point to my web app on my
local server on my PC.  This is what I have successfully used to develop my
internet app under IIS.  After researching and thinking it looks like I have
to point the URL to a SQL Report Server.  But I have not yet generated one,
unless there is a default one somewhere.

Could you direct me to help facilities or tutorial that would tell me how I
can create a Report Server that I can use to publish my reports?

Thanks,
hugh

The proper group is microsoft.public.sqlserver.reportingsvcs or
http://forums.microsoft.com/msdn/ShowForum.aspx?ForumID=82
In terms of publishing your reports, you need to specify the url to the
Reporting Services Web Service. If you have the Report Server installed
locally this would be http://localhost/ReportServer

Jasper,
Thanks a lot.  Just what I need.  It worked.  And I will use the other
newsgroup if I have future questions.
