Report Manager times out - New installation

  • I have a development environment on my home PC running:

    Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit

    (Windows Ultimate was installed as a 'clean copy' via an upgrade. The previous OS, Vista had SQL Server and all components including Reporting Services running successfully)

    IIS spec

    Prior to installing SQL Server I ensured the following IIS windows features were enabled:

    -Internet Information Services

    - -Web Management Tools

    - - -IIS 6 Management Compatibility

    - - - -IIS 6 Scripting Tools

    - - - -IIS 6 WMI Compatibility

    - - - -IIS Metabase and IIS 6 configuration compatibility

    - - -IIS Management Console

    - -World Wide Web Services

    - - -Application Development Features

    - - - -.NET Extensibility

    - - - -ASP.NET

    - - - -ISAPI Extensions

    - - - -ISAPI Filters

    - - -Common Http Features

    - - - -Default Document

    - - - -Directory Browsing

    - - - -HTTP Errors

    - - - -HTTP Redirection

    - - - -Static Content

    - - -Health and Diagnostics

    - - - -HTTP Logging

    - - - -Request Monitor

    - - -Security

    - - - -Request Filtering

    - - - -Windows Authentication

    Navigating to http://mycomputername successfully displays the IIS 7.0 welcome screen

    SQL Server spec

    All components of SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition 64-bit were then installed successfully, followed by SP3.

    I also installed SP1 for Visual Studio 2005 followed by SP1 update.

    A default configuration of SSRS was also implemented.

    Each service is running under the following:

    SQL Server - LocalSystem

    SQL Server Agent - LocalSystem

    SQL Server Analysis Services - LocalSystem

    SQL Server Browser - LocalSystem

    SQL Server FullText Search - LocalSystem

    SQL Server Integration Services - NT Authority\NetworkService

    SQL Server Reporting Services - NT Authority\NetworkService

    Shared Memory & TCP/IP enabled

    Reporting Services Configuration

    All relevant parts are correctly configured including the following:

    Windows Service Identity:

    Sevice Account - NT Authority\NetworkService

    Built-in Account - Network Service

    Web Service Identity:

    ASP .NET Service Account - NT Authority\NetworkService

    Report Service & Report Manager run under ReportServer application Pool

    IIS Manager

    ReportServer Application Pool runs under the Classic Managed Pipeline mode and NetworkService Identity.

    Internet Explorer settings

    Running IE8

    Local intranet settings:

    Include all local (intranet) sites....

    Include all sites that bypass....

    Include all network paths....

    Set my login which has admin rights Content Manager in Report Manager

    PROBLEM

    I can view and render reports via reportserver

    I can view reports but CANNOT render reports in report manager. I get the 'Report is being generated' message and it eventually times out with the message 'The underlying connection was closed: An unexpected error occurred on a receive.

    Unable to read data from the transport connection: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host.

    An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host'

    I've tried with various reports, some that pull data from my local db, some that have parameters and some that simply display text. NONE render in report manager, although the report paramaters are successfully retrieved from the local db.

    I tested this using Mozilla firefox and although the layout is poor the reports render successfully.

    I'm at a complete loss!

    I've tried reinstalling the OS and SQL Server.

    Tried setting up a new application pool in IIS using my login account and Classic managed pipeline mode.

    In Reporting Services config I've tried using my login account for Windows Service Identity and ASP .NET Service Account.

    All to no avail.

    NIC & Wireless settings

    This may/may not have any bearing on matters, I'm not sure!

    When in the process of upgrading from Vista to Windows 7, it mentioned that the DELL Wireless WLAN Card Utility was not compatible with Windows 7 and I removed it.

    Also, I was directed to this post (many thanks Jerry Nee) http://blogs.msdn.com/sql_protocols/archive/2008/04/08/understanding-connection-forcibly-closed-by-remote-host-errors-caused-by-toe-chimney.aspx regarding network adapters. Not sure if this is relevant seeing as I'm running a development system all on one PC. But, Im not sure! Please advise!

    I hope someone can help me rectify this issue as I've been at it now for a good ten days!

    I'm willing to flatten the whole lot and start again if recommended, if someone can state the best setup required for a 'stand-alone' development system such as mine.

    Many thanks,

    Dom

  • I am having exactly the same problem with a very similar environment. Did you ever find a solution?

  • Hi Alan,

    I resolved the problem by disabling 'LinkScanner' in my AVG antivirus software.

    Have a look at this other post of mine:

    cheers,
