Good morning everyone,
I had this problem previously and posted it in another forum. I am installing SQL Server 2005 and all components including SSIS,SSAS, SSRS, etc. I also need to enable/activate IIS.
I went to control panel, then clicked on Windows Features. In the resulting dialog, I clicked on IIS and all the sub nodes in the tree, then clicked okay.

I then proceeded to install SS 2005, Report Server is still greyed out. I checked to see if IIS was in the task manager, services tab and it is there and running.

When I went through this exercise Tuesday night on my desktop it worked fine and was able to get Report Services installed.

I am at a loss. Any help, would be appreciated....

Did you reboot after changing for it to take effect? Is it for Vista?

Yes I did reboot, several times...
Thanks for the reply... I forgot to note that in Task Manager IIS does show up as a running service...
