Report Server (May 2022) installation woes

cosminioan — Thu, 06 Oct 2022 14:15:28 GMT

hi folks,
I've tried to install the PBI Report Server on 3 different machines (Windows 10 Pro, Windows 10 Enterprise, Windows Server 2019 Datacenter), all with the same permissions problem below, where I can't even complete the server configuration, post installation:
Am I missing anything trivial? (I've tried the January 2020 Server install and getting the same issue)

thank you kindly for any feedback,
Cos

The machine-default permission settings do not grant Local Activation permission for the COM Server application with CLSID
{000C101C-0000-0000-C000-xxxxxxxx} and APPID {000C101C-0000-0000-C000-xxxx}
to the user NT SERVICE\PowerBIReportServer SID (S-1-5-80-xxxxxx ) from address LocalHost (Using LRPC) running in the application container Unavailable SID (Unavailable). This security permission can be modified using the Component Services administrative tool.

Hi ,

Before we getting started to Install and configure Power BI Report Server, you prepare the below prerequisites:

Make sure that the SQL Server has been installed and configured on the database server before installing the Power BI Report Server.
It’s strongly recommended to install the Power BI report server in a separate server, not in the same database server.

Make sure that the DB server is reachable from the Power BI Report Server.
Please, check How to Check SQL Server Instance Connectivity from the application server to the database server.

Install and Configure the Web Server (IIS) role on the Power BI Report Server.
Download the Power BI Report Server.
Download SQL Server 2017 Management Studio.
The license key for Power BI Report Server, check where you can find the Power BI Report Server key.
Make sure that the installation account is a member of the Local Administrator Group.
Make sure that the user used to configure the Power BI Report Server have access, run script, and create database permission on the Database Server.

hi sorry, it's been resolved, after engaging Microsoft support and downloading the Sept 2022 Power BI RS and doing followup config.
