Deserialization failed

I am installing SSRS for the first time. I tried to create a simple report and I am getting the following error:

Deserialization failed: The type initializer for 'Microsoft.ReportDesigner.Drawing.RptStyleConstValue' threw an exception. Line 2, position 2.

Does anyone know how to fix this error?

Thanks,

Patrick

Deploying Reports in Visual Studio

About half the time I try to deploy a report in Visual Studio, I do not get
prompted for a user name or password and then get a message that says the
user does not have sufficient rights. Sometimes rebooting the computer will
help but not always. I was told that it is a credential caching problem.
Does anyone know how to get around this problem?try to save/reopen the report. If that doesn't work. close and re-run BIDs.
There are still some issues to be worked out with the dev environment.

Deploying reports - Log In Screen

I have created a report, and want to now deploy it to the Report Server. Each time I try to do that, I get a Reporting Services Log In screen. I have no idea what to input, having tried my windows authentication and sa account without sucess. Is there something else that I need to set up so I can deploy my reports? Thanks in advance!

I've had the same problem. On Reports Manager, I went to the Data Source and set my security there.

I selected 'Credentials stored securely in the report server'.

I put in my username and password (domain\password).

I checked 'Use as Windows credentials when connecting to the data source'

Then after clicking apply, it worked.

Deploying report to multiple locations

We would like to be able to publish a report to more than 1 directory at the
same time. Is this or would this be possible? Currently, we deploy the base
report to a central location and create linked reports to all other locations.The benefit of using linked reports is that updating the report contents of
the original report will update the linked reports automatically. Note:
report parameters and data source settings won't get updated because they
are administrated separately for linked reports.

Will it be possible to create a linked report, but have the ability to
select multiple locations at the same time? Rather than having to do each one
individually.
Thank you!

since creating a linked report is just a SOAP-call (look for
CreateLinkedReport in BOL), you could write a RSS script which creates
multiple linked reports in a sequence.

deploying MSDE instance

Hi there,
I am having a hard time trying finding information on how to deploy my
instance along with my application. I found the following link to be useful
in attaching my database to the server
(http://support.microsoft.com/kb/q240293/) but how do I create that instance
for the attachment to occur. My application was coded using Visual C++ so
the deployment using the VB Package and Deployment Wizard does not apply. I
looked endless on the web on how to do this but to no avail.
I'm using Installshield X to package my install. I have it setup so that the
MSDE install folder is copied onto the c: drive. But I need to create the
instance in the command line using setup.exe. I don't know how to call the
command line within the Installshield script to create my instance. Am I
headed in the wrong direction or is there some easier way? Any help would be
much appreciated!

These may help!
