Deploy Reports via Visual Studio 2005

SQL Server Reporting Services

Dave Byrum


This seems to be a basic issue, but I am having a problem trying to deploy a report to Reporting Services.

I have setup the deployment options under the properties of the Project. But each time I try to deploy a report, I get "The request failed with HTTP status 504: Gateway Time-out"

When I try to connect to connect directly to the TargetServerURL via a web browser from my client or the server itself, I can browse the structure fine. Not sure why I can't deploy via Visual Studio.

Thoughts

Thanks

This is a guess but it sounds like it could be a problem with a proxy server. Your browser is usually set up to handle requests through a proxy transparently. Visual Studio is not. Does the target server exist outside of your firewall

To localize the test, I put the system running the Visual Studio on the same subnet. It's wide open with NO ACL control or routing from that point.

Are you still getting the same error If you are on the same subnet, the request shouldn't be using a gateway.

try opening a command window and running "tracert <reportserver ip>" this will show you how requests are being routed to your report server. If the ip address of the report server isn't the first on the list, you are using some kind of proxy or gateway to get to the report server.
