Reporting Services 2005 with sql server 2012 compatibility - Issues with sp2?

  • I am not exactly sure what is causing this issue. I am creating a replica of our production environment in our staging environment. We currently are using Windows 2008R2 with SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services and for our database it is on SQL Server 2012 sp1 but is a sql 2005 database in compatibility mode. I cloned the vm that reporting services is currently using and restored the databases from production into our staging database environment. Our staging db environment is currently using windows server 2012 with sql server 2012 sp2 . When I try to connect to the database in staging i get the following error:

    The feature: "Using other editions of SQL Server for report data sources and/or the report server database" is not supported in this edition of Reporting Services

    Any help would be greatly appreciated

  • Hi,

    What Edition (e.g. Enterprise/Standard/BI/Web/Developer/Express) is each part?

    Are you seeing this message when connecting to the RS databases via Reporting Services Config Manager and/or trying as a datasource for a report?

    Thanks

  • All versions are Standard Edition. And eeing this message when connecting to the RS databases via Reporting Services Config Manager

  • Thanks, connecting via that should upgrade the RS databases automatically. Is the 2005 RS patched to the latest SP (SP4?)

  • Yes it is sp4

    Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services Version 9.00.5069.00

  • Ok thanks, if you look in the reporting services logs are there any more details?

  • Unfortunately no.

  • our database it is on SQL Server 2012 sp1 but is a sql 2005 database in compatibility mode

    Is this the case also on your copy of the environment?

    ----------------------------------------------------

  • No. The copy is sql 2005 on sql 2012 sp2
