I am trying to add Reporting Services to my already installed version of SQL Server Express 2008 R2. I am installing it on a Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard edition box.
When ever I run the install program to add extra features Reporting services is not listed.
I have installed (I think) all the prerequisites needed IIS, ASP etc but to no avail. Reporting services are just not visible in my features list.
Any ideas?
SSRS is only available in the SQL Server 2008 Express with Advanced Services Download, not the standard one

I've installed Sql Server 2008 R2 Express Advanced SP1 for my client including Reporting Services.
I've configured the Reporting Services but when opening Management Studio I can't open the Reporting Services..
Is this a missing feature in Expres or is there something wrong?
Sql Server version 10.50.2500.0 on Windows SBS 2011 standard.
You cannot use Management Studio Express to manage Reporting Services: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms365166(v=sql.105).aspx
Have an option to choose either a windows SE or Web Edition to install, for my Web based application built on Asp.Net 3.5 Framework.
Question: Have noticed in some blogs they mentioned that, we cannot install SQL Server 2008 on a WebEdition. Is that true?
Mainly - it is not true, you can install STandard, Developer, Express, Enterprise (and may be Datacenter) editions of SQL Server # Web edition of Windows Server 2008
You need something unusual?
I am assuming you mean SQL Server 2008 R2, if so it can be installed on a web edition but you need a special version of SQL Server 2008 R2.

I have SQL Server 2005 Express, but I haven't got SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS). How do I install it separately? Do I have to download the whole SQL Server setup again, or is there any separate setup for only SSRS?
Check out the SQL Server 2005 Express overview page: there are several versions of SQL Server Express - the basic version doesn't include Reporting Services - you need the SQL Server Express With Advanced Tools version to get Reporting Services.
Here's the download page for SQL Server 2005 Express - if you want Reporting Services, you need to get the "SQL Server 2005 Express Edition with Advanced Services SP3".
Update: this is the SQL Server 2008 Express overview page, from which you can also download the various SQL Server 2008 R2 Express versions. You will need the SQL Server 2008 R2 Express with Advanced Services which includes SSRS 2008.
I only have SSMS 2008 Express on my dev machine. What tools are there that I can use to develop, maintain, and manage server side SSRS reports on this machine?
You need BIDS - Business Intelligence Development Studio, which is the Visual Studio shell for developing reports that target SQL Reporting Services, and is included as part of Reporting Services install.
You can download SQL Express with Advanced Services from here. This version of SQL Express includes Reporting Services.
sqlserver express may have some sp things. there's one tool is for ssrs development. you can check it out.
I'm doing data migration between two SQL Server 2008 database using SSIS because I need to do some data transformation. I guess I need to use Business Intelligence Developement Studio which I have on my develop machine. But because I don't have SQL Server Standard Edition on my develop machine. The BIDS do not allow me to build the SSIS package. Is there any work around? Thanks a lot in advance!
When you installed BIDS, did you also install the client tools for SQL Server?
Alternatively, you could remote to the dev server and devlop the package directly on the server.
You would normally install SQL Server 2008 Developer Edition on your development box.
SQL Server 2008 Developer enables
developers to build and test
applications that run on SQL Server on
32-bit, ia64, and x64 platforms. SQL
Server 2008 Developer includes all of
the functionality of Enterprise
Edition, but is licensed only for
development, test, and demo use.
