I am setting up SSRS on a windows 2019 server with SQL Server 2019 installed. Once SSRS is installed and it prompts for first configuration is there anyway to change the default value of Report server Instance of "SSRS" to a different value? See image. I have tried a few things like amending tag in the rsreportserver.config and tried changing the name of the install folder C:<install path>\SSRS but it is locked by a process and I tried stopping all SQL Server services etc but that did not work.
Can this default instance name be changed?

I have a SQL 2012 instance called LTT which contains a database called ReportServer$LTT. I have installed SSRS 2017. After the installation of SSRS2017 it is using SSRS as its Report Server Instance. But I need it to use LTT. How do i change the Report Server Instance? Using SQL Management Studio I am unable to connect to <servername>\LTT Report Server and I get the following error:
The Reporting Services instance could not be found.
(MS.sqlserver.managment.UI.RSClient)
I am also unable to connect to: \SSRS and get this error:
Unable to connect to the server at \SSRS. The specified
URL might not be valid or there might be a problem with the report
server version of configuration. Specify a different URL....
You'll need to remote desktop to the report server. Then open Reporting Services Configuration Manager.
Click on the "Database" tab. From there you'll be able to change the database the report manager uses.
We're trying to set up an environment to migrate an SSRS 2005 installation to SSRS 2012. The install of SSRS 2012 appeared to go fine. I understand that 2012 (well, 2008 +) does not need IIS anymore, that it uses something called HTTP:sys. Aside from not knowing what HTTP:sys is, I'm fine with it. The new server did not have IIS installed on it when I installed SSRS 2012. It does now but it is shut off. So SSRS 2012 is installed and configured according to the prompts (and a Youtube tutorial and a comparison to how our SSRS 2005 is configured) and it all seems straight forward and should "just work". But when I follow the URL to the Report manager, I'm prompted for network credentials and then get a blank webpage, not the following as expected (except empty of course):
I've run into this one before on an install of SSRS 2008R2.
Open the rsreportserver.config(By default, it can be found from C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSRS10_50.MSSQLSERVER\Reporting Services\ReportServer)
Comment out the <RSWindowsNegotiate/> under <AuthenticationTypes> element.

I've got this error when I tried to deploy SSRS report in Visual Studio.
(DAX 2012 kernel 6.0.1108.6510 app 6.0.1108.670 solution 6.1.1108.670)
Error 1 A call to the Microsoft Dynamics AX SRSFrameworkService service failed. A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond 10.43.6.57:8201. C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft\DynamicsTools\Microsoft.Dynamics.Framework.Design.Reporting.Modeling.targets 466
10.43.6.57:8201 is old address new should be 10.43.6.91:8201
Where I can change it?
In AX form SSRSServerFarm address is new:(NLDDAXDBS02TR, http://NLDDAXDBS02TR/Reports, 01#NLDDAXDBS02TR)
I run Visual Studio like this "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\Common7\IDE\devenv.exe" /AxConfig "c:\Users\Username\Desktop\DEV.axc" with correct config file
in axc file I don't have 10.43.6.57 or old dns NLDDAXDBS01T
I scanned and replaced values in registry on client and server machine, checked all files on client and server machine, checked all values in database.
Also restarted AOSes, SSRS service, and client RDP session.
Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 Configuration and perform a Refresh Configuration didn't help
Full CIL Compilation, Deactivate BIServices, Activate BIServices also didn't help
Running Visual Studio as Admin - same result
nslookup says: NLDDAXDBS01T - 10.43.6.57 NLDDAXDBS02TR - 10.43.6.91

Are you certain the default report server is setup correctly in Ax?
Found under:
System Administration > Setup > Business intelligence > Report

Check your business connector configuration to make sure it's connecting to the right environment, see https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa569654.aspx
I think Visual Studio deploys to AX based on that business connector AXC, so if that's pointed to an incorrect environment that has the "old" SSRS setup, it would explain your issue.
I got this problem one time due to multiple AOS and SSRS instance, or you might stop AOS service while user still using.
First, you need to make sure Report servers configuration point correctly to SSRS instance.
Then, stop all AOS service, go to reporting service login with correct instance and check everything again.
Then, perform full compilation using AXbuild.exe , Full CIL.
Start AOS service and check.
Let us know result.
Attempting to cache my SSRS reports as referenced in
http://blogs.technet.com/b/rob/archive/2010/02/11/caching-ssrs-reports-for-performance.aspx
...I am to understand I need to set the processing options:

...which seems to dictate there should be a dropdown here:
However, notice I hover over and nothing happens.
Could this be related to my previous installation SQL Express 2008 R2 with Advanced Services somehow failing to fully upgrade all the user options back when I upgraded to SQL Server Enterprise? I understand Express does not have the ability to cache reports per the documentation - but I am using Enterprise now.
Or am I just looking in the wrong place?
Basically, the SSRS Report Server page (See above Image), is still the crippled Express version - so the upgrade must have failed on that part. I tried backing up the instance, fully uninstalling SQL Server and all it's components, and re-installed from scratch. Still no love. What is going on?
I had something similar. I believe I solved it by setting up the SSRS web under IIS? It's an option during the SSRS setup.
It gave me more control over the website configuration and I was able to manually remove it before re-installation.
Answered: Even if you "Uninstall" SSRS from the Control Panel > Uninstall a Program, you must also do the following:
Manually remove/backup the databases ReportServer and ReportServerTempDB from the SQL Server. If we already had some reports deployed to Reporting Services, we would do a backup of the databases and reconnect after the new installation. If we want to set a clean Reporting Services without reports, we can just remove them using Management Studio.
Manually remove the virtual folders Reports and ReportServer from IIS (This is only for RS 2005. As you may know, RS 2008 doesn’t use IIS)
Manually remove the folder of the instance of Reporting Services (For example for RS 2008 would be something like C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSRS10.MSSQLSERVER). This folder is not removed automatically and, if we don’t remove it manually, the configuration files will contain information about the old configuration and we might conserve old problem if they existed.
I'm trying to install the SSRS data connector for my CRM4 implementation.
I'm using the Method 2: Modify the Install-config.xml file from this page. But keep getting the same error message:
Unable to validate SQL Server Reporting Services Report Server
installation. Please check that it is correctly installed on the local
machine.
I've added the following to my XML file.
<reportserverurl>http://SSRS-Server/Reportserver$MYORG_MSCRM</reportserverurl>
<instancename>MYORG_MSCRM</instancename>
Anyone know what is still wrong?
I tried several instance names but they all don't work either.
I can access my SSRS server by going to http://SSRS-Server/Reports and it will give a list of all services running there.
Any help would be much appreciated.
You may need to post more details regarding this issue:
1) The 2nd method described in this link : here is used when the Reporting Server database is installed using the SQL Server named instance. Are you installing the Reporting Server database in the default instance or named instance ?
2) If you are using default instance, you might not need to use custom XML, you can just run the installer without requiring the input XML file.
3) What is the architecture of your CRM implementation ? is the CRM Application, SQL server and Reporting Server resided in the same server ? or different server ?
Hope this helps.
I realise this is a really old article however I wanted to post the resolution I found to work as I have spent the past 3 days trying to resolve this issue! I created an account just to post this.
I was having the same problem as the original article. I had SSRS 2008 installed on a server, CRM (4.0!!!) on a different server and SQL 2008 on a different server again. When all permission issues were resolved and ports were opened from the SSRS server to the SQL server, I was still having problems getting the SetupSrsDataConnector.exe to see the locally installed instance of SSRS2008 (Not R2).
I found the resolution to the issue in this article:
https://community.dynamics.com/crm/b/pabloperalta/archive/2011/07/12/unable-to-validate-sql-server-reporting-services-report-server-installation-error-while-installing-srs-data-connector
Effectively the problem I was having is that my copy of the SRS Connector installation files were old and needed updating, however my server did not have internet connectivity. In the link above, it gives you a download location to get a .mps file which contains the updates for the SRS Connector.
You need to download this .mps file and then run the installation via command prompt with a customised install-config.xml file, which specifies the SSRS ReportServer URL and the SSRS Instance Name in a custom tag (what you named the SSRS instance when you installed it) and another custom tag for <Patch update="true">C:\Path to the .msp file< /Patch>
This was my installation command:
"D:\Stage\SRSDataConnector\SetupSrsDataConnector.exe" /CONFIG "D:\Stage\SRSDataConnectorUpdates\install-config.xml"
