any help ?

You may be using the wrong instance of "Report Server Configuration Manager", depending on what you have installed you may have:

 

"Reporting Services Configuration Manager" 

"SQL Server XXXX Reporting Services Configuration Manger"

and 

"Report Server Configuration Manager"

 

You want the last one "Report Server Configuration Manager"
