It looks like the R2 documentation is either wrong, or simply doesn’t apply when you’re trying to change the account for reporting services Sql 2008. I also found the online docs for 2008 didn’t match what I was seeing (detailed here:http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb326213(SQL.100).aspx).
After changing the account in the configuration manager, the give away message was in the rsreportserver log:“SharePoint content service is null. Report Server may not have joined the SharePoint farm.”
The following did the trick:
- Change the service account using the configuration manager.- From SharePoint–> Central Administration–> General Application settings (not Application Management)–> reporting services section–> ‘Add a report server to the integration’ – enter your admin credentials to allow grant RS access.
Cheers, Ryan
