Reporting Services Error

I receive the following error, 'External component has thrown an exception. (rsRPCError)' , when I do http://servername/reports or http://servername/reportsserver. Has anyone seen this type of error?

Thanks, Edwina

I am pasting the error from the rporting services logfile.

Reporting Services Error

I was trying to export to excel one of the reports from Report Manager
when I encountered this error:
Exception of type
Microsoft.ReportingServices.ReportRendering.ReportRenderingException
was thrown. (rrRenderingError) Get Online Help
Exception of type
Microsoft.ReportingServices.ReportRendering.ReportRenderingException
was thrown.
Access to the path "C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL
Server\MSSQL\Reporting
Services\RSTempFiles\RSFile_8179fb2e-a742-4fbf-b01f-72c2647b3ed0" is
denied.
Anybody who has an idea what it means and what caused it?
Thanks in advance and have a nice day!Hi
It could be a few things. it is most likely that either the disk is
full or that the ASPNET and SYSTEM users do not have required
permissions on the specified folder. Have you changed permissions on
this folder at all?
Kulgan.|||Are you trying to export to an old version of Excel? I've gotten similar
errors trying to export to Excel 97. XP ( 2002 ) works fine.

interesting because I have 7 reports and this error only occurs upon
export of one report.|||I am not quite sure. I am exporting from the Report Manager itself. The
version of Excel in my PC is Excel 2003. And one more thing is, I have
7 reports and this error occurs only upon export of one these reports.|||May be you already have an answer by now but are you able to export it to PDF
or other format?

the case it won't work. You need either office XP or Office 2003 on the
Report server for Excel export to work.
