  • which part exactly are you stuck on? I have some configuration instructions if required. SSRS does not actually use IIS any longer although it does still use the kernel mode driver behind IIS.

    Here is the official documentation on how to Install SSRS.

    That link covers SQL Server 2005 not 2008!

  • SSRS 2008 no longer requires IIS! A very good thing.

    Go through the Reporting Services Configuration Manager following the steps in order from top to bottom. Pay special attention to the accounts you use for the services.

    That is typically all you need to do. If it keeps failing, look at the System, Application, and Security Event logs for specific error messages.
