What was the setting before PTH? In the client administration console under Reporting Servers / Server Connections / EDASERVE make sure the security is Trusted. When the reporting server is installed by default the user id is srvadmin not admin and who knows what your installer used for the password...


Thank you for using Focal Point!

MOD,
Before PTH there was no security PTH and OPSYSS were INACTIVE.
and on client side SECURITY is trusted and checked on
PASS WEBFOCUS USERID AND THEIR GROUPS.

also while installing SERVER the user is ADMIN not SRVADMIN.

Let me know if you need any other details.

Can you log into the reporting server console with the admin ID or do you get that same error?
