Unable to create a report server database

Hi ,

I came up with a problem when I was configuring the RS.
User does not have permission to perform this action.

System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException (0x80131904): User does not have permission to perform this action.
at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection.OnError(SqlException exception, Boolean breakConnection, Action`1 wrapCloseInAction)

ClientConnectionId:667c4b63-22c7-4e0c-9580-c077482f4b8f
Error Number:15247,State:1,Class:16

How to fix it? Do I need a db owner or other roles?

Thanks in advance!

Hi @misaki233 ,

It means your current account don't  have permission for created database in sql server. You can try to use administrator account for sql server in configuration or you can add dbcreator role to the account:

Make sure that the user that you are using to Install PBIRS has the Administrator privileges in SQL Database or Machine.

Login to SQL Server with sa or sqladmin

-Go to Object Explorer
-Expand Security --> Logins
-Right Click on Login and select "New Login"
-Click on search and find that windows user which you are trying to install PBIRS
-Under Server Role on the Left side assign this user as "sysadmin" role.
