Power BI Report Server 404 Not Found after removing HTTP URL Reservation
Hi,
I have been asked to remove possibility to access report via HTTP on Report Server.
I have removed reservations for address REPORTServerURL.COMPANY.COM and just leave REPORTServerURL.COMPANY.COM on HTTPS Section.
But after that whenever I try to access Power BI Reports on report server (open it or try to Manage it) i am getting generic Error on Browser.
Inside the LOG file i can find :
2021-06-11 12:59:13.4679|ERROR|6|OData exception occurred: System.Net.WebException: The remote server returned an error: (404) Not Found.

Hi Anonymous !
Please provid eus some background why you were advised to remove those entries. For now you can add back these entries from Report Configuration Manager if you are able to access it.

Hi HashamNiaz ,
Yes I Have enabled back HTTP URL and everything works.
The reason why I want to remove it is that, Company want enforce users to use report server only via HTTPS (Security Team requiremnts), so i thought I can remove HTTP URLs from URL Reservation and job will be done.
Note: Most people use HTTPS as this is standard how links are being distributed but there is clear requiremnt that users can't be allowed to access reports via HTTP.
I have read that alternatively I can create URL Redirection Script but I am not so familiar with such solution.
Today I found that there is parameter in RS Config file "SecureConnectionLevel" and I can switch it to value grater that 0. Do you think that it will work?
Hi Anonymous !
Please follow the MS documentation on how to add security certificate to your Server which will allow you to configure https;Regards,
Hasham
