Installing the Dynamics AX 2009 Reporting Extensions for SSRS 2005 SP3 and got an error message “works only with SSRS 2005 SP2″ !!!
This sounds like the error message you’ll get when installing the Reporting Extensions for SSRS 2008,
and Microsoft knows about this and published an workaround for SSRS 2008:
1. Locate the AX Reporting services dll from the extracted AX 2009 SP1 folder [\\AX2009SP1\support\axsetupresources\microsoft.dynamics.setup.reportingservices.dll;File Version - 5.0.1000.52]
2. Extract the AX 2009 .iso to a shared folder
3. Copy the microsoft.dynamics.setup.reportingservices.dll into the folder: \\DynamicsAX\Msi\Components32\Program Files\Microsoft Dynamics AX\50\Setup \\DynamicsAX\Msi\Components64\Program Files\Microsoft Dynamics AX\50\Setup
4. It will ask to replace the existing dll having File Version – 5.0.593.0. Say Yes and replace.
But this won’t work with SSRS 2005 SP3 !
What is the problem?
I don’t know exactly, but when creating/changeing the registry key with the version number for the reporting services
(the registry key, the Dynamics AX setup looks in)
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server\Reporting Services
Reg_SZ:Version = “9.00.3042.00“
9.00.3042.00 == 2005 SP2
9.00.4035.00 == 2005 SP3
the setup for the Reporting Extension will run…..
