How to create a sql server connection in mobile report publisher

Question

I did a fresh install of SQL 2016 RC1. Report Builder works (for paginated reports). But I can't get the Mobile Report Publisher to create a connection to from my laptop to the sql instance. When I try to connect to the server I get a "Server Error" Unable to connect to remote server. I'm running the latest preview 3 of mobile publisher. I've tried server/reportserver & server/reports for a server address, no luck. I get a different error if I uncheck the option to use a secure connection.

Any ideas?

Answer 1

Ok, so, the reports_preview is gone. And after lots of trial and error, the url needs to include the port:

sqlrpt16-1:80/Reports/

I had to uncheck the Use secure connection option, which probably uses https, which i didn't configure during setup.

Answer 2

please try connecting to the new portal url : /reports_preview.

Hope that helps!
