Install Reporting Services on another IIS website

I am using IIS6 and installed Reporting Services on http://myWebsite in IIS.
This works fine and I can access http://myWebsite/ReportServer and http://myWebsite/Reports

My problem is that I also need Reporting Services on another website in IIS6.
I have a website http://www.myothersite.com which I also need Reporting Services on. I created two virtual directories (Reports,ReportServer) that point to the same directories as which the original Reporting Services site does, but it doesn't work. I get "You are not authorized to view this page message in IE." when I view http://www.myothersite.com/ReportViewer in my browser

Any suggestions?i dont think you would need to report managers. you would only need one report manager and create your folders in it and use the appropriate paths in various websites on the server.

Install issues under IIS6

Hello,
I ran the installer on a windows 2000/ iis5 server and no issues at all, the
server components were available during setup (trial version downloaded from
MS).
I subsequently tried the same thing on a Windows 2003 / IIS6 server and it
says IIS is not properly configured but it does not tell me what
specifically is the problem. IIS works fine on the server, i have over 10
sites hosted and it is working fine.
My guess is there must be a security/permission problem?
Anybody else have issues running the Report Services installer on an IIS6
machine?
PLEASE HELP! :)
thanks in advance,
-ZDRS will not install if you are running IIS 6 in IIS 5 compatibility mode.
You should check that first. If that is not the case then look in the
rsspt<#>.log file, search for prereq and there should be a line in there
telling you what check is failing.

Thanks for your reply. :)
IIS6 is NOT running in IIS5 compat mode.
I am unable to find the rsspt*.log file anywhere on my webserver. Do you
know which directory it's supposed to be in? When exactly is it created? (I
cancel out of the install after I get the warning message saying IIS is not
installed/configured for a server component installation).
Thanks,
-ZD

I finally found the file, it was named rsstp<#>.log (not rsspt<#>.log).
Anyways, below is the relevant portion of the log that is failing. It seems
as though its looking for W3SVC #1 ' Is that the default website? I deleted
that when I originally configured IIS, but I do have another site from which
the server can be accessed through http://localhost and http://<serverName>
Any ideas?
Thanks

there is no way to change this. After the install the vdirs can be moved
using the following instructions:

install error on web server (windows 2003 web edition/iis6)

During the web server install, I used the network service account to run the
report server.
My Error: setup could not initialize the report server. you must manually
initialize the report server before using it for the 1st time. see reporting
services setup doc.
My environment:
sql server = dbs
web server = report server
client = designer
Do I need to run the rsactivate utility on the web server? How is this done?
Is this correct syntax in the command prompt?
rsconfig -m \\<webserver> -u<administrator> -p<password>
Or, if I am logged onto the web server directly; is this the correct way to
activate the report server?
rsconfig -c"C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL\Reporting
Services\ReportServer\RSReportServer.config"
Thanks,When I tried to pull up the site on my client, I got:
reporting services error
the report server installation is not initialized. check the doc for more
info. (rsreportservernotactivated) get help:
http://www.microsoft.com/products/ee/transform.aspx?EvtSrc=Microsoft.ReportingServices.Diagnostics.Utilities.ErrorStrings.resources.Strings&EvtID=rsReportServerNotActivated&ProdName=Microsoft+SQL+Server+Reporting+Services&ProdVer=8.00
As a result of the error, I restarted the web server and typed in the
address for the reportserver and got prompted to login. I could not use the
servername, but the ipaddress 192.168.0.4/reportserver
It let me in after logging in and displayed the ms sql server reporting
services v 8.
Does this mean that it is working?
