This Document is a walk trough of how to set up a Report Server For newbies

SoftWare Environment

SQLServer Express 2014

Link from MSDN about Tutorial

1. .

2. When you install the SQLServer 2014, make sure if report server is checked. it is checked defaultly.

3. Open Reporting Services Configuration Manager just like SQLServer Manager Studio. There are two URLs needed to be noted.

   that is WebServiceURL and ReportManagerURL. The second one is used to manager you report template. The first One is used to generating the
   report for client like winform ReportViewer.

4. By Default, we need to open IE with runAsAdministrator feature to access to the manager website. if we hope to bypass this limit, we can follow this to assign the necessary privilege.
