Error registering the viewer with the service. An error has occurred. Access to the path is denied.

[Abodabe]

Hello, I'm new to web development, and I'm currently facing an issue with viewing reports on my website when it's uploaded to the server using IIS. The problem is that sometimes I can't view the Report Viewer, but other times I can. When I can't view it, I get this error message: "Error registering the viewer with the service. An error has occurred. Access to the path is denied." Where should I start checking for this issue?

Hello Abodabe,

Thank you for the attached screenshot!

The error indicates that the Reporting service cannot access the folder specified as the service's storage, a permissions issue so to speak.

For details on how to resolve that problem, please refer to the Error registering the viewer with the service. Access to the path X is denied. - Telerik Reporting KB article and try the solutions suggested there.

I hope this will help.
