Answer 1

Just like Nasser, I know this was a while ago but I wanted to post my solution for anyone who has this problem in the future.

I had my report setup so that it would use a data connection in a Data Connection library hosted on SharePoint. My issue was that I did not have the data connection 'approved' so that it was usable by other users.

Another thing to look for would to make sure that the permissions on that Data Connection library also allows read to the select users.

Hope this helps someone sooner or later!

Answer 2

Old but relevant issue. I solved for 2012 by logging in to the reporting server and:

• browse to http://localhost/reports/
• Click 'Site Settings' in the top-right (was only available when logging in to the report server)
• Go to the 'Security' tab and click 'New Role Assignment'
• Added my DOMAIN\USERNAME as a System Administrator

Can't say that I'm comfortable with this solution, but I needed something that worked and it worked. Hope this helps someone else.

Answer 3

This worked for me- -go to the report manager, check site settings-> Security -> New Role Assignment-> add the user

-Also, go to Datasets in report manager -> your report dataset -> Security -> New Role Assignment -> add the user with the required role.

Thanks!

It's because of lack of privilege for the user you are running the report builder, just give that user or a group a privilege to run report builder. Please visit this article

Or for shortcut:

1. Start Internet Explorer using "Run as Administrator"
2. Open http://localhost/reports
3. Go to properties tab (SSRS 2008)
4. Security->New Role Assignment
5. Add DOMAIN/USERNAME or DOMAIN/USERGROUP
6. Check Report builder

Problem:

Error rsAccessDenied : The permissions granted to user 'User\User' are insufficient for performing this operation.

Solution:

Click "Folder Setting" > "New Role Assignment" Then type "User\User" in the 'Group or user name text box'. Check the Roles check boxes that you would want the user to have.

Run BIDS as administrator despite of existing membership of Administrators group.
