Introduction

At times if we successfully deploy the reports to the report server and try to view them through Report Manager we E Ncounter am Insufficient rights error. This article focuses on resolving the error.

Solution

After deploying the reports to the report server we can view them in the report Manager Web App provided by Microsoft for Managing, delivering and applying the security to deployed reports. Generally the path to the report server was Http://localhost/ReportServer if it is a default instance orhttp:/ /localhost/reportserver_instancename for a named instance. Similarly the Report Manager can is viewed at http://localhost/Reports for the default instance and Http://lo Calhost/reports_instancename for the named instance.

By default the built-in Administrators group have permission on the report server to access all the reports and the data so Urces deployed on the report server. If you were in the Administrators group come across the following error while viewing the reports

The permissions granted to user ' domain\username ' is insufficient for performing this operation. (rsaccessdenied)

But if is a domain user (which in the most cases we is). You'll have to follow the below steps to resolve the error.

4. Click on Security.

5. Click on New Role Assignment and add the Domain\User and depending upon the role of the user in the Organizati On assign them the appropriate role.

6. You'll see the user have been added to the role specified. Click on the Home button.

7. Go to the Folder Settings on the Home page.

8. Click on New Role Assignment and add the Domain\User and depending upon the role of the user in the Organizati On assign them the appropriate role. You can either assign the role of the content Manager who can delete, modify and manage all the content on the RE Port server or Browser who can view the reports and subscriber depending upon your need.
