ReportViewer RDLC - Azure Websites Error 80004005

I hope someone can help me with this. It's killing me. I've spent hours over days on it and my client is becoming increasingly frustrated. :(

I am hosting on Azure Websites and SQL Azure. I am using v.10 of the Reporting assemblies. Everything works perfectly fine outside of Azure (localhost, no problems)

I have a ReportViewer in ASP.NET within a user control. The ReportViewer and RDLC are working perfectly for display and export to Excel/Word, however I am having issues with PDF export and printing within IE.

When printing:

Prompt: An error occurred during printing. (0x80004005)

and

Webpage error details

Line 1058 of that .axd is:

When exporting to PDF:

I think you should focus on the [LocalProcessingException: An error occurred during local report processing.] portion. I've not used this mode myself but it almost sounds like you're including your report file in your ASP.NET solution but it's not being deployed to the server. Is this the case? And if so, what's the copy/build settings for this file in Solution Explorer/Properties? – Jaxidian
Thanks for the reply! It's possible I'm missing a .dll but can't imagine what it might be. I'm including all the reporting assemblies. Also, the reports display and export to Word/Excel without a problem. They just don't work with the IE-only print option, nor will they export to PDF from the ReportViewer. EDIT: I should add that the .rdlc files are being deployed and have verified that via FTP. – trnelson

PDF generation is actually not supported in the security configuration on WAWS, in this case you should use either a WebRole or a Web Server on a Virtual Machine. Thanks! Nir (WAWS team)

I got same issue today when I was publishing to Azure Web Site(App). Problem was solved by migrating site from FREE to BASIC app service plan tier.

one more possibility could be the missing dlls on the cloud. For reporting, as you have referenced the Microsoft.Reporting.Webforms dll which gets locally stored on your local drive and doesn't gets packaged when you deploy your application on the cloud. So, we are suppose to also copy/upload/deploy these dlls too on cloud.
