Hi all,

I am trying to view report that i deployed to reporting service but when i try to view it, it gives error:

An error has occurred during report processing.
Cannot create a connection to data source 'INVC'.
For more information about this error navigate to the report server on the local server machine, or enable remote errors

the datasource is ODBC

Try test the connection in odbc. By the way, you have sql server on same machine with RS?

Does dsn 'INVC' point to Oracle? Is it on RS machine?
