Hi all,
What is the Physical Location path for SSRS 2008 RDLC files?
In previous SSRS 2005, it hosts the files in IIS virtual directory.
But in SSRS 2008, where it will host its final rdlc files?
Thanks in advance

They aren't stored as physical files. They are stored in the Reporting Services database (called ReportServer by default if you don't have a named instance.)
You can't directly copy the files, but you can move them with the Report Manager interface.
To copy the files, use the RS scripting utility, or download and then upload the .rdl files to the new location.

1. ".rdl" files are stored as xml data in the report server database (reporting services uses its own database).
2. Report Server metadata are stored in the database where this can be configured. These metadata can be accessed using Report manager site which can be hosted in IIS.
3. Report manager is used to access/modify.configure the report files and server. This is needed as the informations are stored in the database.
4. You need the reporting services configured in the server. Then the rdl files can be deployed to the server.
