I tried to install RS Standard Edition on my win2k server(sp4) with MS SQl 2000 (sp3) Standard Edition. Howerver, I got the following exception when I tried to access Report Manager via "http://servername/reports" after RS was installed.

Microsoft.ReportingServices.Diagnostics.Utilities. EventLogSourceNotFound: Event source Report Server does not exist.

I double-checked the RS windows service and restarted it several times to make sure it was running. I also tried to restart the machine and even reinstall RS. But I got the same error every time.

The Windows Event Log says the ReportServer Service is activated.

The following are part of the contents in ReportServer log:
