Is it a supported configuration to be run a SQL 2008 reporting services server with a SQL 2005 database server?
Either way, where can I find supporting documentation?
No, you'll need to use a SQL 2008 server for the ReportingServices database. You can connect SSRS 2008 to pull data from a SQL 2005 server without issue.
Unfortunately SQL Server Reporting Services might fail to work successfully even if the database version is different in service pack or build number detail.
In such a case you should upgrade the report server database.
So it is not possible to make it work a 2008 on a 2005 db
For SSRS you can find resources at SQL Server Reporting Services
Ignore the answers above yes youo can, check this on sql server 2008 r2.. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms157300.aspx ([email protected])
