What to do:Error to navigate to the report server, enable remote errors

Today I was working on SSRS report changes and everything went fine in the DEV environment. And the code changes had to be moved to UAT environment. However, even after a successfully deployment of the report, I was getting the below error when I was trying to view report from AX Form.

Error message: "For more information about this error navigate to the report server on the local server machine, or enable remote errors"

Why do we get this error: Most probably there are two reasons,
1. There is some error in the .net code
2. The IL code is not reflected with the .net code changes made for the report.


Suggested solution approach:

I have approached the troubleshooting in the below order,
1. Compile the objects
2. Generate Incremental CIL
3. Redeploy the SSRS report.

Ideally you should be able to run the report, if the issue was with IL code not reflecting with your code changes.

Hope this helps. Good luck!

P.S. In case you are not able to resolve the issue with the above steps. Trying to enable remote errors and you will receive a detailed error report instead on just an simple Infolog message.
