A common issue when setting up Reporting Services integration with SharePoint is that the SharePoint add-in is not installed properly although the setup program doesn't indicate any issues. More than likely, the culprit is that the person who installed the add-in is not SharePoint Web farm administrator and Site Collection administrator.

As a first stop for troubleshooting SharePoint integration issues, you should examine the add-in log after the add-in setup completes to verify if it was installed successfully. You'll find the log file (RS_SP_<N>.log) in your temp folder, such as \Documents and Settings\<login>\Local Settings\Temp. Specifically, check that all activation tasks have completed successfully and that there are no errors. If all is well, the log files should look as follows:

User: <userid>

Installing Report Server feature.

Calling copyappbincontents command.
