I am having an issue getting reporting setup on my team foundation server because connecting to the Analysis Services throws the error
The SQL Server and Instance you specified does not exist or cannot be reached
However, I know the Server name and Instance are both correct and they connect fine for both the Warehouse and Reporting Services. I have made sure that analysis services are running in the services and that the username and password are correct.
Here is a screenshot of what I am experiencing:
just a guess but SSAS only works with windows authentication so try to use a AD user on your second tab
I found this blog in which this guy has the same issue as me and he said he finally solved it be running a repair on SSAS, could anyone tell me where I do a repair on Analysis Services in the SQL Server Configuration Manager?

This question has been been asked before, but no one has answered it. I installed SQL Server 2017 Express, created a database and installed the Reporting Services (which now is a separate download).
Everything is working, BUT, when I open the SQL Server Configuration Manager, EVERYTHING is there but the SQL Server Reporting Services service.
I have to go to services.msc to start and stop it under the title 'SQL Server Reporting Services'. Did something go wrong with my install? Does the 2017 version of Reporting Services no no longer go in the SQL Server Configuration Manager? Is there something that can be done to get it there or do I have to uninstall and try again?
Thank you in advance!

Nothing went wrong. Because SQL Server Reporting Services is a separate product, it's no longer included in the tools used to manage SQL. While I do not have any documentation for this, I experienced the same thing in SQL 2019.

I have try to search all solution for error 26 of sql server but no solution work for me.
I have check that server is running by going to services.msc and I have also checked through management configuration tool, but all get fail in my case.
I have reinstall it to check any missing file in installation process.
So at the end I have used PortQryUI.exe to find main reason where I get this message on my console
UDP port 1433 (ms-sql-s service): NOT LISTENING
I am attaching some screen shot for more clarification. And I have also follow all the steps given at stackoverflow.com for solving error 26 but no solution work for me so please don't close this question, may it have some other problem but sowing error 26.
UDP 1434 is the SQL Server Browser Service port. This service is disabled by default. This service is only needed when connecting to named SQL Server instances (or default instances listening on non-default ports) from the network. Local connections are able to discover named instances using the registry.
TCP port 1433 is the SQL Server listenning port for default instances. Named instances (like SQLEXPRESS) use a dynamic port by default.
The SQL Server Protocols team has some good practical troubleshooting articles for connectivity issues:

First of all I would like to thank you for you responses. Actually I have installed only management studio so I am facing this problem.
But earlier I have also installed only management studio when I am using visual studio 2010, but at that time it was working nicely. But when I have installed Visual Studio 2015 with SQL Server management studio 2012 after formatting my system, I have started facing this error.
Why this problem
Actually Microsoft have provided a facility in Visual studio that when we install it we will also get sql server installation with it so our management studio work nicely till Visual studio 2013. After that microsoft had removed this feature and now we need to install all the other file of SQL server with management studio.
Solution
We need to install SQL server files by our self. We can download them from Microsoft's site, like i have downloaded 2014 version from Microsoft's site.
You can download SQL server 2014 express from here
After a long time struggling with my SQL Server was just refusing to listen on 1433 despite following all advice online and searching extensively: My network was a public network. It took a long time before I got a thought that maybe SQL Server would have a check to not listen on a public network even if you try really hard to make it.
I don't know how my USB wifi home network was set to public in the first place, but I suppose I must have done that somehow. However I actually couldn't find this in any help or forums that I searched.
I have difficulties connecting to my MS SQL Server and I can't find tutorial or answer how to do this, even though I think this should be something pretty standard.
My current setup is this - I have freshly new Installed Visual Studio 2010 and followed Beth Massi's article Step-by-Step: Installing SQL Server Management Studio 2008 Express after Visual Studio 2010 : http://blogs.msdn.com/b/bethmassi/archive/2011/02/18/step-by-step-installing-sql-server-management-studio-2008-express-after-visual-studio-2010.aspx
But I'm not able to connect to a SQL Server. In my Configuration Tools\SQL Server Configuration Manager I see this when I open it :
I set to Enable all TCP\IP and Named Pipes (Just saw that this may be a problem) and in the properties of the SQL Server (SQLEXPRESS) from Services I see this:
I also see in the Log On tab this :
some sort of password (not entered by me) it seems to be something default, but since I'm not sure where the problem is I try to show everything I think may have something to do with solving my problem.
At the end I tried different options to connect to my SQL Server form the Management Studio I ended up with this:
As you see I get an error (included in order to be able to read it). I read the the machine name may be required so my User Account name is Xman and my machine's name is Xman-PC. Eveh though my printscreen image is not from this try I made an attempt to connect to the Server with XMAN-PC\SQLEXPRESS but again - no success.\
Could you point me to a good tutorial on how to connect to a MS SQL Server (I can't believe there's nothing that explains in simple steps what you need to do to connect to a server) or could you tell me how to set-up my configurations so I actually can start to work with databases?
P.S
Forgot to mention in Command Prompyt - sqlcmd command also returns error - Could not open SQL connection.
P.S
Finally I managed to connect using Windows Authentication and (local)\sqlexpress for ServerName. Which at least means that everything is working. But now even more I would like to know how to connect using SQL Server Authentication. It must be something default as it was for Windows Authentication?!
Looks like you've done the hard work - last step will be turning on SQL Server Authentication.
Since you installed with the default values, only Windows Authentication is allowed; you need to set it to SQL Server and Windows Authentication mode. You can do this through Management Studio through the instance Properties -> Security.
See this link for full details: Change Server Authentication Mode.
I have two virtual machines runs on my laptop, let's say their name are VMApp and VMDB, and both are runs the same OS, Windows Server 2008 R2.
On VMDB, I installed all SQL Server 2008 features except the Reporting Services. in contrast, I installed only SQL Server 2008 Reporting Services on VMApp.
I run Reporting Services Configuration Manager on VMApp and point the Server Name to the VMDB's computer name, then I got an error message
"A connection to the computer cannot be established"
I enabled the named pipe from SQL Server Configuration Tools on VMDB, but I still get that error message on VMApp.
I think the problem is not network connection because the VMs are connected in same domain network and they could ping each other.
Sorry for this dumb case because I am newbie in SQL Server, and I really appreciate any help from you guys!

You cant set the DB path to SERVERNAME\INSTANCENAME on the configuration manager. There isnt even that option. First you set the server:
and then the DB:
where exactly are you having your issue?
FYI: try to enable SQL Browser on VMDB or to connect by IP if you cant enable browser
Over the weekend the SQL Server 2008 R2 (running on Windows Server 2008 R2) was rebooted.
This morning my reports don't run.
I try to login to SQL Server 2008 R2 Reporting Services Configuration Manager and it gives me an error: Unable to connect to the Report Server
I did some searches and found this, but I don't see any service called Report Server. I also don't see any services that - by its name - seem to be the reporting service when running SQL Server Configuration Manager.
Ideas?
Thanks.
The link you provided was for the 2012 version. Use the appropriate version of the link for a few ideas:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143773(v=sql.105).aspx
If the Reporting Services Configuration Manager can't be launched, I would check the system event logs for errors pointing in the right direction: This could be a lot of things: permissions, SQL connectivity problems, certificate expiration, &c.
Edit: the service name is still incorrect in the corret version of the docs I provided. The default instance of this service is called
SQL Server Reporting Services (MSSQLSERVER)
If you have multiple instances of SSRS installed there will be multiple services listed, with the instance name in parenthesis.
