We cannot set the "Unattended Execution Account" on any Sql Server 2005 Report Server. This problem occurs on new installations and existing installations of Report Server. We have several servers that have the account already set from prior install and configuration, but now it cannot be changed. No domain policy changes have been applied, only MS Patches.

All attempts to set the account using the Report Server config tools return a UnauthroizedAccessException, as shown below. I have been unable to find any documentation on the permissions required for this action. Can anybody help?



System.UnauthorizedAccessException
at System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.ThrowExceptionForHRInternal(Int32 errorCode, IntPtr errorInfo)
at System.Management.ManagementObject.InvokeMethod(String methodName, ManagementBaseObject inParameters, InvokeMethodOptions options)
at ReportServicesConfigUI.WMIProvider.RSReportServerAdmin.SetUnattendedExecutionAccount(String userName, String password)

Did it use to work? Are you running it under Domain Administrator privileges?
