SQL Reporting Services Service Pack 2 - Failure modifying security permissions on file C:\Program Files\...\RSTempFiles

There is nothing out there for this error, except this Italian link:

Errore durante l'installazione di Reporting Services SP2 (ma vale anche per l'SP1): "Failure modifying security permissions on file C:\Program Files\...\RSTempFiles"

Thanks to this guy's link, I figured out you need to change the ReportingService logon to a System account.

Spooler error event id: 7031

Problem: The printer spooler on Windows 2000 server is stopping itself, creating error: Spooler error event id: 7031

Resolution: There were some strange printers showing up in the registry entry below. I deleted them and it fixed the problem.

http://www.windowsbbs.com/showthread.php?t=37799



You may want to check the following registry key for any printers that should not be installed.
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Printe rs
(I have no idea why a space character is appearing in the word "Printers"!)

I had a very similar issue (except this was on a Citrix Metaframe server) and it turns out that there was a print device listed there which was autocreated from a client printer and never purged. I think there was something invalid in that registry entry because as soon as I deleted it, the spooler service worked fine.

Good Luck.

How to: Sql reporting services create subtotals for a matrix

Welcome to the MSDN Library: "Sorting
You can sort data within a matrix by any expression. To view instructions about sorting, click the following topic:
How to add sorting to a matrix (Report Designer)


Adding Subtotals

To add a subtotal to a matrix, add a subtotal to an individual group within the matrix. Groups do not have subtotals by default. To add a subtotal to a group, right-click the group column or row header and then click Subtotal. This will open a new header for the subtotal. Reporting Services will calculate the subtotal based on the aggregate in the data cell for the group.
For information about aggregate functions, see Aggregate Functions.
Displaying Data on Either Side of Row Headers
You are not limited to displaying row headers on the side of the matrix. You can move the row headers inward, so that columns of data appear before the row headers. To do this, modify the GroupsBeforeRowHeaders property for the matrix. You can access this property through the Properties window or the General tab of the Matrix Properties dialog box. The value for this property is an integer; a value of 2 will display two groups of matrix data before displaying the column containing the row headers."

7. Click OK.
8. Test by logging on the accounts in the Server Operators group.

Page Hijack Exploit: 302, redirects and Google

Page Hijack Exploit: 302, redirects and Google: "racked this and related problems with the search engines literally for years. If there was something that you could easily do to fix it as a webmaster, I would have published it a long time ago. That said; the points listed below will most likely make your pages harder to hijack. I will and can not promise immunity, though, and I specifically don't want to spread false hopes by promising that these will help you once a hijack has already taken place. On the other hand, once hijacked you will lose nothing by trying them.
Always redirect your 'non-www' domain (example.com) to the www version (www.example.com) - or the other way round (I personally prefer non-www domains, but that's just because it appeals to my personal sense of convenience). The direction is not important. It is important that you do it with a 301 redirect and not a 302, as the 302 is the one leading to duplicate pages. If you use the Apache web server, the way to do this is to insert the following in your root '.htaccess' file:"
