Unable to install Power BI Report Server Due to blocking error
I was able to solve the problem by changing the hostnames to a smaller version that doesn't get shortened in "systeminfo".
Edit: before changing the hostname to a shorter version, I was also able to install it successfully by installing a new sql server on the report server hosting machine.
v-deddai1-msft Yes, that screenshot is from the server where i am trying to install Report Server.
Hi harunkara ,
It's really strange that you can use udl test successfully but can't ping the server name. Did you do the both test on the report server? And why your named instance use the port 1433. It's used for default instance.

Hi v-deddai1-msft , When I send install requirements to customer, its listed as 1433 in my farm topology as its the default port. After that its up to the db admin to decide the port. In this case they decided they will go with 1433 as I sent.
Both tests, ping and udl was performed on report server.
Would that cause problem? I installed SharePoint without problem using the same db instance and port.
yes tried that as well, procudes same error.
