PROBLEM
When installing/uninstalling Telerik Reporting the following error is thrown:

Error 27502

error 27502

SOLUTION
In its nature that's a login error: "Error 27502. Could not Connect to Microsoft SQL Server. Login failed for "User/Service here".

You need to make sure the account that runs the Reporting installer has administrative rights to the database server you've selected. The Reporting installation asks for a database server as it installs the AdventureWorks database needed for the demo reports. These demo reports however are available online, so if you do not need/want local copy of them, simply deselect them from the installation options and you would not be prompted for a database server.

Note: the installation of the AdventureWorks database can only be performed on a LOCAL database server and you cannot use REMOTE database server for this purpose.
