Beta Information

This article discusses a Beta release of a Microsoft product. The information in this article is provided as-is and is subject to change without notice.

No formal product support is available from Microsoft for this Beta product. For information about how to obtain support for a Beta release, see the documentation that is included with the Beta product files, or check the Web location where you downloaded the release.

SYMPTOMS

When you try to install Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Reporting Services after you have installed the Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 Beta, the Setup program does not install Reporting Services correctly. When the Setup program performs the system check, you receive the following warning message:
ASP.NET is not installed or is not registered with your Web Server
The Setup program lets you continue the installation, but when the installation is completed, not all components are installed correctly.

CAUSE

This problem occurs when you install the .NET Framework 2.0 Beta before you install Reporting Services. The following Microsoft Beta products require the .NET Framework 2.0 Beta:
  • Microsoft Visual Studio 2005
  • Microsoft Visual Basic 2005 Express
  • Microsoft Visual C# 2005 Express
  • Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Express
  • Microsoft Visual J# 2005 Express
  • Microsoft Visual Web Dev 2005 Express
  • Microsoft SQL Server 2005
  • SQL Server 2005 Express Edition
Note The .NET Framework 2.0 Beta is installed as a prerequisite to these products.

WORKAROUND

To work around this problem and still be able to use the .NET Framework 2.0 Beta, you must install Reporting Services before you install the .NET Framework 2.0 Beta. To remove the .NET Framework 2.0 Beta, follow these steps:
  1. Click Start, click Control Panel, and then click Add or Remove Programs.

    Note If you installed one of the beta products that include the .NET Framework 2.0 Beta, you must uninstall the beta product before you uninstall the .NET Framework 2.0 Beta.
  2. Click Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 Beta, click Change/Remove, click Uninstall, and then click Next.
  3. Click Yes, and then click Finish.
After you uninstall the .NET Framework 2.0 Beta, you can install Reporting Services. Additionally, you can install the .NET Framework 2.0 Beta after you install Reporting Services.

If you install the .NET Framework 2.0 Beta after you install Reporting Services, you must run the Aspnet_regiis utility to register the .NET Framework 1.1. To do this, follow these steps:
  1. Click Start, click Run, type cmd in the Open box, and then click OK.
  2. At the command prompt, type the following command line, and then press ENTER to unregister the .NET Framework 2.0 Beta:

    %windir%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.40607\aspnet_regiis.exe -u

  3. At the command prompt, type the following command line, and then press ENTER to register the .NET Framework 1.1:

    %windir%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.1.4322\aspnet_regiis.exe -i

Note You may have to use the Rsactivate utility to activate the Report Server Windows service and the Report Server service on the report server instance. To do this, type the following command line, and then press ENTER:

"Local drive:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\80\Tools\Binn\rsactivate.exe" -r -c "Local drive:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL\Reporting Services\ReportServer\rsReportServer.config"



Note We do not recommend that you install the .NET Framework 2.0 Beta in a production environment.
