I cannot connect to Reporting Services from Management Studio. The error message I get is:
TITLE: Connect to Server
------------------------------
Cannot connect to <SERVERNAME>\ReportServer.
------------------------------
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
Report Server WMI Provider error:
Invalid namespace (Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.UI.RSClient)
------------------------------
Invalid namespace (System.Management)

This appears to be a WMI issue, but when I checked on the SQL server machine, the WMI service is running and the firewall is turned off.
I ran a few tests and found that the WMI has its ReportServer WMI data at\\<SERVERNAME>\root\Microsoft\SqlServer\ReportServer\RS_MSSQLSERVER\v10\admin:MSReportServer_ConfigurationSetting" (I can find this info using a small console app I had to write). Is this the correct place for the WMI info?
Version info:
Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio 10.0.2531.0
Microsoft Analysis Services Client Tools 10.0.1600.22
Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC) 6.1.7600.16385
Microsoft MSXML 3.0 6.0
Microsoft Internet Explorer 8.0.7600.16385
Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0.50727.4952
Operating System 6.1.7600
This is very strange as this exact issue has appeared on the forums but with a SQL2005 management studio connecting to a SQL2008 server, but I am using SQL2008 standard edition on both the client and server.
Any ideas?
