Tabs missing from Reporting Servers home page

When I am trying http://localhost/Reports/Pages/Folder.aspx

I am not seeing the all too familier "Contents" and "Properties" tabs along with deployed reports. Once in a while, I see that, but most of the time it is missing. Reporting Services got installed correctly though.

It shows a very blank-ish Home page.

Tabs missing from Reporting Servers home page

    Thanks. I can not open the link. Not at least right now. Would you please let me know if you have any clue

    Most likely, you are browsing with a user that has not been granted permissions. By default, only local admins are able to see anything.

    Thanks Brian. I am a local admin in my workstation where I am trying to open the home page. And still I can not see the full home page of Reporting Services.

    Yep. Looks just like that. It worked after I installed SSRS and since then only time has passed, no changes that I can think of that would possibly have affected it. But now I get that same screen everytime.

    I can't access -http://localhost/reportserver- either but in that case it's a permissions issue for IUSR (network service i believe ) .

    Brian, any idea why some users (on the same domain) would require separate privileges than others For instance, I've created a few reports and have given a number of users access to the reports via Report Manager on the Security tab. The reports are located in a folder and the users were given access to the folder and to the reports in that folder. No biggie. However, for some users I've had to give them privileges to the Home page in Report Manager. This is what I find perplexing. I've had to single-out some users, but not others. The Report Server is on a 2003 box and I've granted privileges to the Everyone group for the Reports web site. I thought that would at least allow all users the ability to see the contents of the home page, but that isn't the case.

    Any ideas

    I don't mean to hijack this thread, but I'm assuming the thread starter is having similar problems.

    I'm getting the same thing, but it varies by user. As far as I can tell, all security settings on the server are correct. I have no idea why it would work for some users, but not for others.
