You have the option to install Reporting Services using a setup wizard or by running a command-line executable. Setup can be launched from a CD, a local folder, or a file share that is specified using Universal Naming Convention (UNC) format. If you use the wizard, you select options on each page of the wizard to set property values for the installation. If you use the command-line executable, you can use command-line arguments or a template file to set property values. You must perform the installation locally, although you can choose which components to install if you re distributing components across computers.

Note For more information about installing other editions, see the Reporting Services Setup help file, rssetup.chm, which is packaged with the Setup executable.

When using the setup wizard to install Reporting Services, you progress through a series of pages that are dependent on your selection of features to

install. If you install all components, you will need to specify credentials for the ReportServer Windows service, define virtual directories for the Report Server and Report Manager, and name the SQL Server instance and database used by Report Server and provide connection credentials. You can optionally specify email delivery options for subscriptions. If you choose to install the sample database, you need to select a SQL Server instance on the local computer as a host. Finally, you need to specify licensing options.

The setup wizard steps you through the process of selecting components, providing credentials, and specifying other configuration settings needed to complete the Reporting Services installation. The pages of the wizard that you see depend on the features that you choose to install.

Important If you plan to install Reporting Services on a Web server that is hosting Windows SharePoint Services, you will need to perform several tasks after you install Reporting Services. These tasks include configuring SharePoint to avoid conflicts with Reporting Services, adding the session state module to SharePoint, and separating the application pools of each server in IIS. You can find detailed instructions at http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/ default.asp url=/library/en-us/RSinstall/htm/gs_installingrs_v1_9fdy.asp.

Run Setup from the installation CD or a network share that contains the contents of the installation CD. When you run Setup, the first page that appears is the Supplemental End User License Agreement. After reviewing the agreement, select the I Accept The Licensing Terms And Conditions check box. Click the Next button. The Component Update portion of the installation will begin and might take a minute or two. The components to be installed will be listed separately on this page. Click the Next button. The System Prerequisites Check will begin. If this check passes, you will be able to continue. Otherwise, you will need to stop and fix the problem. Click the Next button.
