SSRS browser user permission issue

  • Hoping you can shed some light, I have done a lot of googling on this and retesting but nothing is working quite right.

    We have 2 new users to a Sales team. On Friday I gave them access to a report but they can't access it. They can access the folder itself but when they click on the direct link it comes up with the old favourite:

    An error has occurred during report processing. (rsProcessingAborted)The permissions granted to user 'UserFred' are insufficient for performing this operation. (rsAccessDenied).

    Their access is no different to anyone else in the same team. I have full administrative rights to SSRS and the machine it sits on. I have tried removing and re adding the access several times (even on the server itself instead of my local machine, with IE in administrator mode) to no avail.

    Has anyone else had this at all? And if so how did you fix it?

    Thanks in advance for your help.

  • How are permissions on the report setup for the report data source(s)? If it is using Windows integrated security do the new users have access to the back-end data source(s)?

  • Check whether the report is inheriting permissions from the parent, quite often people change individual permissions, which stops inheritance.

  • Thanks both, the data source has its own id so that's fine.

    It should be inheriting this from the parent folder but it's not. It's very odd as normally you can add the person to both the folder and report and this resolves this, but this isn't working for me.

    Thanks for any further advice.

  • like mentioned before, if the SSRS end is ok, it's probably their permissions (or lack of) in SQL Server that's the problem

    That raises more questions than answers for me....

    So you seem to be saying that you added the user to the report permissions explicitly and they still go the error - is that right?

    Can they access the "folder" that contains the report in the report manager?

    if they can access the folder, does removing their permissions from the folder stop them accessing it (checking they are who you think they are)

  • That is correct, I went into Security on the folder settings as normal and added the user. They appeared in the Security of both yet he can click on the folder and he can go to it, but if he clicks on the report he gets the error.

    I removed him from the folder and he got the error say he couldn't access the folder. I am just testing reading him to the folder again to see if he can go to it again.

    Not had this type of thing before, am going to get him to try running IE in administrator mode but I know this doesn't usually sort the error he is getting.

    Thanks for your help, this is a scratching the head one.

  • Have you checked permissions on the folder that contains your data source?
