Kerberos constrained delegation Internet Explorer

We set up authentication according to the article

https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/reportserver-configure-kerberos-powerbi-reports/
In chrome and Edge works, but in IE is not working. We use last version SSRS 14.0.600.301

 

Text of error

 

Something went wrong

 

We couldn't run the report because we couldn't connect to its data source. The report or data source might not be configured correctly.
Please try again later or contact support. If you contact support, please provide these details.

 

We couldn't connect to the Analysis Services server. The server forcibly closed the connection. To connect as the user viewing the report, your organization must have configured Kerberos constrained delegation.

Hi @Claster,

 

From above link you provided, the errors occur if you have services (Power BI Report Server, SQL Server and Analysis Services) installed on separate machines which is called a distributed environment. So, you encountered the same error in that case, right? And, you configured Kerberos authentication to resolve this issue and succeeded in chrome and Edge, right?

 

Please follow this blog to ensure the steps to configure Kerberos are all correct. If you have completed all the configurations but still failed in IE browser, have you ever tried using different version of IE browser?

 

By the way, was there any error prompted when opening Report Server Web Portal?

 

Besides, please try Christopher Finlan's suggestion (enter your credentials under the data source tab and save them for report) to see whether it works to your scenario.

 

Regards,
