Hello-

We've got the following setup:
OS: Server 2008 x64
SQL: SQL 2008 x64 Enterprise
Services: SQL Server and Reporting Services
SSRS is installed in native mode inside a named SQL instance

Everything seems to be working okay, except when I try to go in via the SQL Management Studio and define some new roles in the Reporting Server all the options are greyed out and I can't select anything. However, if the administrator account logs in it is able to do so. I'm unable to view Properties, View Schedules or do anything.

1) I've double checked that our group is in the local admin group
2) I'm able to do everything else on the server (run SSRS config manager, etc...) and have no problem making any other system changes.

What's the difference in the admin account and being in the administrator group?


Thanks.

henrik

FYI. Disabling UAC for the user account fixed this issue.
