I reinstalled my computer recently and as a result I had to reconfigure my Reporting Services installation as well. After configuring everything I was sort of surprised when I got this message when I tried accessing the http://localhost/Reports url: “User ‘NO-DOM\hef’ does not have required permissions. Verify that sufficient permissions have been granted and Windows User Account Control (UAC) restrictions have been addressed.”
And it actually took me quite a few minutes (in the 30′s! yes, it’s late in the day…) to figure out the solution even though it was quite simple. By Starting the browser as an Administrator everything worked perfectly… :)
