ReportBuilder.application fails on my PC - but works on localhost
- by JayTee
We're running SQL 2005 on Win2K3 server and are using SSRS. Here's the situation:
I can run Report Builder from localhost
My coworker can run Report Builder on his Vista computer
Another coworker can run Report Builder on his XP SP3 computer (IE7)
I can NOT run Report Builder on my XP SP3 computer (IE7)
I'm told that it could be anything from an errant registry entry to a group policy problem. Here is what I've tried:
Put the site into "Trusted Sites" with "low" security
re-install .NET
create a new local user account and attempt to run it
The results? Every single time, I get a dialog box: "Application cannot be started. Contact the application vendor"
I click the details button and get this:

I'm really at a loss. I'm certain there is something on my PC preventing the application from running - but I just don't know what. Google hasn't been much of a help because most problems are related to the server configuration (which I know is correct since it works on other PCs)
Help me, Overflow Kenobi, you're my only hope..
