Hi,
In our TFS 2008 SP1 installation with Reporting Services 2005, we experience that users in projects cannot browse for shared data sources for their reports.
Checking the security settings for the "Home" folder shows that "NT AUTHORITY\Authenticated Users" (as expected) has the "Browser" role assigned.
The shared data sources TfsReportDS and TfsOlapReportDS are present in the folder (I can browse them with my "Content Manager" role) and security settings for the data sources are inherited from the parent folder (as expected)
But when a user tries to browse for the data sources, all project folders are shown, but no datasources!?
When entering the "Data sources" property on the reports in the team project, the error message "The shared data source reference is no longer valid" is shown after the browse button. That goes for all existing reports, but when executing the reports they are shown as expected.
If a user tries to manually enter "\TfsReportDS" as the shared data source, the message "The permissions granted to user xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx are insufficient for performing this operation. (rsAccessDenied)". But shouldn't the "Browse" role be enough for this?
To my knowledge nothing has been changed on the server, but I'm open for suggestions...
Any help would be appreciated!
Kind regards,
Carsten-S
