I'm trying to install TFS 2008 using a remote *named *instance of sql reporting services...(MyReportSvr\dp01)
Sql browsing services are enabled on this server. Per the docs, I've customized the msiproperty.ini file in the "AT" subdirectory as shown below. ;------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ;Reporting Services ;------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- VSTF_RS_SERVER=MYREPORTSVR VSTF_RS_REPORTS_URI=http://MyReportSvr/Reports$DP01 VSTF_RS_REPORTSERVER_URI=http://MyReportSvr/ReportServer$DP01 *What happens in this case is that the installation fails, and in the log you see this snippet:* [02/20/08,13:21:37] TFSUI: getcurrenttfsproperties.exe: --- STATUS: Writing VSTF_RS_SERVER=MYREPORTSVR into C:\Documents and Settings\k07878\Local Settings\Temp\SIT23080.tmp\TfsCurrConfig.ini section Config [02/20/08,13:21:37] TFSUI: getcurrenttfsproperties.exe: --- STATUS: Found no instances of WMI class MSReportServer_ConfigurationSetting under namespace \\MYREPORTSVR\root\Microsoft\SqlServer\ReportServer\v9\v10\Admin [02/20/08,13:21:37] TFSUI: getcurrenttfsproperties.exe: ===* WARNING: Selecting the first instance name of SQLB* [02/20/08,13:21:37] TFSUI: getcurrenttfsproperties.exe: --- STATUS: Found SQLRS windows service name of ReportServer$SQLB [02/20/08,13:21:37] TFSUI: getcurrenttfsproperties.exe: --- STATUS: Found SQLRS application pool of DefaultAppPool .... *In other words, the installation isn't using the correct named instance of reporting services.* So, you might say to use "VSTF_RS_SERVER=MYREPORTSVR\dp01" - but this doesn't work either, because the installation apparently expects to do some WMI queries with VSTF_RS_SERVER set to nothing but a machine name (so the install fails with this case too.) *Does anyone know how to configure msiproperty.ini for a remote, named-instance of Reporting Services?
