Reporting service Installation issues

Dear all,
i need some help with this problem: i'm trying to install Reporting Services
on a win2k IIS
server and when it asks me the istance of MSSQL i specify SQL login Account,
I insert the sa account with its password.
I received the following message:
"Login failed for user '(null)'. Reason: not associated with a trusted SQL
Server connection."
I tried to specify a domain account but the answer is "The domain account
that you specified cannot be validated".
I've tried to use a named pipes protocol but it no works.
thxI had the same problem on a machine in our testing environment. I'm not sure
why the credentials are not passed from the install GUI correctly. Perhaps
the credentials provided there are only used in the communication to the SQL
server after the install is complete? Anyway, what I did was pass the
correct credentials in the command line. I invoked the setup by running the
following command.
(in your install root)
setup /i "(install root)\setup\rsrun.msi" RSSETUPACCOUNT=accountname
RSSETUPPASSWORD=password
Hopefully that will work for you.
