I haven't found it so far.

I know some others have done some work around this, but you would have to 
search for it.

We deploy reports via MSI and it's troublesome.  My first solution was to get a 
command process and use rs.exe which is a deployment tool that comes with 
report server.   The main problem with this is rs.exe is only available where 
ReportServer is installed.  Currently we have our own dotnet based command line 
app to do the work - so it's not a data drive custom action as it should be.  

Other things I have found is that the Report Server web interface is unreliable 
from an installer point of view, it can be unavailable or unresponsive for all 
sorts of reasons.  So we actually do not fail the MSI install if the reports 
fail to deploy.

Regards

Michael

Subject: [WiX-users] deploying sql server reports using msi

Hi:
I'm currently involved in a project converting crystal reports to ssrs.
Does the sql server extension support automatically deploying reports to a 
report server?
Ideally this solution would not need the .net framework during the installation.
Regards
Sean.
