SSRS SQL server reporting server custom security 2019 exception Error

Guru dath

Hello

I am facing a problem with respect to SSRS(Sql Server Reporting Server) 2019 Custom security Exception in windows server 2019.

Running report using Vb.net Winforms source code and sending WebRequest to SSRS server with necessary details like server url,username ,password, DBName etc, with response back using webResponse need to get authentication cookie for the User

Getting error as sqlAuthCookie is null, also getting an error as Custom security exception is not enabled

Anything solution/help would be highly appreciated

Hello Guru,

The "Custom security exception" error message indicate that the custom security extension that you are using is not enabled on the SSRS server. Please refere below URL.

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/reporting-services/extensions/security-extension/how-to-install-custom-security-extensions?view=sql-server-ver16

If the custom security extension is correctly enabled, the error message about sqlAuthCookie being null might indicate that the authentication process is failing.

check that the credentials have sufficient permissions to access the SSRS server.

Thanks
