SocketException when creating a new Report Server Database

We had a customer call up that encountered a problem when trying to create a new database for their Report Server through the Reporting Services Configuration Manager.  This is what they saw:

When we clicked on the Error link, we saw the following details:

System.Net.Sockets.SocketException: No such host is known
at System.Net.Dns.GetAddrInfo(String name)
at System.Net.Dns.InternalGetHostByName(String hostName, Boolean includeIPv6)
at System.Net.Dns.GetHostEntry(String hostNameOrAddress)
at ReportServicesConfigUI.RSDatabase.IsLocalDbServer(String dbServer)
at ReportServicesConfigUI.RSDatabase.GrantRSConnectionRights()
at ReportServicesConfigUI.RSDatabase.CreateNewDatabase()

The server name that we had specified was in the format of SERVER,PORT.  The reason was because there was a firewall in between the Report Server and the Database server.  The Database server was a Named Instance and UDP 1434 was being blocked which is the port for SQL Browser.  We use SQL Browser to convert the Named Instance name to the actual Port number, or named pipe, of the Named Instance.  With SQL Browser not available, we have to specify the actual port number so that we can connect to the database.

From the screenshot above, it looks like we were able to connect to the database as “Running database script” was successful.  Also the “Test Connection” button on the Database Server part of the wizard connected successfully.  So, we got a dump of the error to see what was happening.

The first thing I did when I opened the dump was to load the .NET debugging extension that ships with the .NET Framework called SOS.

0:009> .loadby sos mscorwks

You’ll also notice that we are on Thread 9.  It put me to that thread automatically because it is a crash dump with a given exception.  This makes it easy to find a starting place in your dump.

Next, I wanted to see if the exception in this dump matches what we saw in the Configuration Manager. We can do this by calling !printexception which will print the exception on the given thread you are on.  You can also specify an address for the actual exception.

0:009> !printexception
Exception object: 02a12c44
Exception type: System.Net.Sockets.SocketException
Message: No such host is known
InnerException: <none>
StackTrace (generated):
<none>
StackTraceString: <none>
HResult: 80004005

So, this is our guy.  Our call stack at this point is pretty much what we saw in the Exception Details within the Configuration Manager.

My thought here is that the IsLocalDbServer is being passed the raw string of my server address and not being parsed.  We can look at that by way of !dso (Dump Stack Objects).

055bfa1c 02923f58 System.String myserver,1234
055bfa20 028f3664 ReportServicesConfigUI.RSDatabase

We see RSDatabase at the bottom which matches my IsLocalDbServer method call.  We then see the raw string followed by the SocketException if we work our way up.  Reviewing the IsLocalDbServer method, it does indeed not parse the string for the server name/port. 

So, if you run into this exception, you may want to check what you are passing as your Server name.  You will not be able to specify a port.

    I run into this problem with a hidden instance but the installation worked because the Report Server and the Database Server were on the same server. I'm wondering what would happen if you try to create a farm with a hidden database instance; if I am not mistaken then the Reporting Services nodes on other servers would not be able to find the database. Is there a fix for this issue?

    Everyone says to use servername,port.  Well I had a stubborn one, not even the 111.111.111.111,1421 worked.  This does work. rsconfig -c -s servername.duanelawrence.com,1421 -d reportserver -a Windows -u corpserviceaccount -p password Be sure to run as admin and change directory to c:program filesMSSQL (X86)100ToolsBinn

    see the following: 1- Fire wall may prevent the RS report server access to machine containing the REPORT SERVER database. 2- See if the report server reporting services machine is in the same DOMAIN/Network of the machine which contains the "Report Server" database. 3- Report Server db and related temp database should be in the same database.
