I'd like to delete one of my deployed SSRS reports, then recreate it, but I can't. When I click the report's "Manage" ellipsis on the Report Server I get this:
It's weird because the report works fine, both in the Visual Studio preview and after deployment onto the Report Server; I just can't "Manage" the report on the Report Server. How can I delete this report from my Report Server? I have tried deleting the entire folder containing the problematic report, then redeploying all of the reports, datsets, etc. but I still wind up with the same problem with this one report.

Is it possible to have SSRS's Report Manager display a report name that is not the .RDL file name?
I.E. I have a Report .RDL named "MyReportAboutSomeImportantStuff.RDL" but I want the Report Manager to display this user friendly as "My Report About Some Important Stuff."
Yes, it's possible. After deploying to the reportserver, you can browse to the report through Report Manager and use the "Properties" tab to manually change the displayed name of the report - e.g. inserting the spaces.
If you get sick of doing this by hand (and you will), it's also possible to script this and several other post-deployment operations using rs.exe. See TechNET: Scripting Deployment and Administrative Tasks
I have used Microsoft SSRS extensively with the Report Manager.
Today I have a unique requirement:
I need to deploy the header and footer of a report as Report Part. (I am completely new to report parts though)
After building the report in SSRS 2016 Report Designer, I go to the tab Reports, and choose Publish Report Parts.
In the Publish Report Parts tab, I see Select items to Publish.
In this window, I do NOT see the report header or footer. I see only the parameters used in the report.
When I use the SSRS Report Builder to Publish Report Parts, I see parameters and datasets (this time), but still not the header or footer.
Any idea on how to publish the header and footer alone as Report Part ?
I have created a report project in Visual Studio 2013 and deployed a test report to the local reports server (SSRS 2012).
When I preview the report from visual studio it opens well, but when I try opening it from Report Server URL, I can see the report viewer toolbar but once I click "View Report" it shows "Loading" and then a blank page appears.
I then tried to delete the datasource, datasets and delete any report contents and just keep the title, still a blank page is the only thing that appears
Any idea what could be the problem or things i can try ?
It turned out to be a problem in Chrome browser, trying out Internet Explorer worked fine.
I'm trying to view my SSRS report in a browser. According to this MSDN page, I should see a page that looks like this:
When I load that page on the computer hosting my SSRS report, I get no results at all. My browser looks like:
I am able to preview my report in Visual Studio Business Intelligence Development Studio and the report looks exactly like I'd expect. I can also export the report to a PDF file and it looks fine. What could I be doing wrong with regards to viewing my report in a browser.
It looks like you haven't actually deployed the report to your local Report Server.
You say you're just previewing through BIDS, which is rendering it in BIDS, not the Report Server itself.
Right now your local Report Server has nothing to display; either you don't have the specific rights or there are simply no items to display.
You need to deploy either the individual report or the project to the Report Server.
