Dear all, I am seeing an issue with configuring SSRS

When I am trying to run

$inst = Get-WmiObject -Namespace "root\Microsoft\SqlServer\ReportServer\RS_SSRS\V15\Admin" -class MSReportServer_Instance -ComputerName localhost

I am getting following error

Get-WmiObject: invalid class "MsReportServer_Instance"

When I checked the SSRS configuration, everything else was successfully configured

Thanks

D

following is the full code for reference

<# code based on Sven Aelterman git repo code
#>
function Get-ConfigSet()
{
return Get-WmiObject –namespace "root\Microsoft\SqlServer\ReportServer\RS_SSRS\v15\Admin" `
-class MSReportServer_ConfigurationSetting -ComputerName localhost
}

# Allow importing of sqlps module
Set-ExecutionPolicy -ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned -Force

# Retrieve the current configuration
$configset = Get-ConfigSet

$configset

If (! $configset.IsInitialized)
{
# Get the ReportServer and ReportServerTempDB creation script
[string]$dbscript = $configset.GenerateDatabaseCreationScript("ReportServer", 1033, $false).Script

# Import the SQL Server PowerShell module
Import-Module sqlps -DisableNameChecking | Out-Null

# Establish a connection to the database server (localhost)
$conn = New-Object Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Common.ServerConnection -ArgumentList $env:ComputerName
$conn.ApplicationName = "SSRS Configuration Script"
$conn.StatementTimeout = 0
$conn.Connect()
$smo = New-Object Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.Server -ArgumentList $conn

# Create the ReportServer and ReportServerTempDB databases
$db = $smo.Databases["master"]
$db.ExecuteNonQuery($dbscript)

# Set permissions for the databases
$dbscript = $configset.GenerateDatabaseRightsScript($configset.WindowsServiceIdentityConfigured, "ReportServer", $false, $true).Script
$db.ExecuteNonQuery($dbscript)

# Set the database connection info
$configset.SetDatabaseConnection("(local)", "ReportServer", 2, "", "")

$configset.SetVirtualDirectory("ReportServerWebService", "ReportServer", 1033)
$configset.ReserveURL("ReportServerWebService", "http://+:80", 1033)

# For SSRS 2016-2017 only, older versions have a different name
$configset.SetVirtualDirectory("ReportServerWebApp", "Reports", 1033)
$configset.ReserveURL("ReportServerWebApp", "http://+:80", 1033)

$configset.InitializeReportServer($configset.InstallationID)

# Re-start services?
$configset.SetServiceState($false, $false, $false)
Restart-Service $configset.ServiceName
$configset.SetServiceState($true, $true, $true)

# Update the current configuration
$configset = Get-ConfigSet

# Output to screen
$configset.IsReportManagerEnabled
$configset.IsInitialized
$configset.IsWebServiceEnabled
$configset.IsWindowsServiceEnabled
$configset.ListReportServersInDatabase()
$configset.ListReservedUrls();

$inst = Get-WmiObject –namespace "root\Microsoft\SqlServer\ReportServer\RS_SSRS\v15" `
-class MSReportServer_Instance -ComputerName localhost

$inst.GetReportServerUrls()
}

Sorry for the roundabout answer, but I'd check with Chrissy LeMaire and Rob Sewell, because they literally wrote a book about manipulating SQL Server objects with PowerShell.
