Invalid URI: The hostname could not be parsed. Help!

I'm getting this all of a sudden on a report that previously worked for me.
I uploaded a new RDL after putting in a new graphic and adding a couple of
text boxes, but not much else that I can see. Any clues?Where is the image coming from? Is it a URL? Check Value property to make
sure the image is accessible.

Invalid URI: The format of the URI could not be determined

I'm using the sample on custom authentication from msdn but whenever I try to login I get this message.What URI are they complaining about? Has it anything to do with the custom cookie handling? I cant for the world understand whats wrong.

I had to replace the url to the service in the proxy.

But now I have problems with the cookie. Authorization ticket not received by LogonUser

Am I the only one with this problem?

Could the problem be that I'm using two instances of reporting services? I thought that it was a good idea to create two instances of reporting services to be able to preserve our project portal (team foundation, sharepoint) with windows authentication and use the other one for development with forms authenitcation.

Anyone? Any input would be useful.

Invalid URI problem

Hi,

I got a problem in MS-SQL 2k reporting service that when I set a hyper link into a data-bind table, sometime it prompt "Invalid URI: The hostname could not be parsed" error, and the bind data should contain special char like space, -, etc.

Is the char affect the error or another problem? And any solution if it's the char problem?

The development tools is VS 2003 and the report format is rdl

I feel sorry about that the error is my programming error on using "\" on URL.

In IE or firefox, the browser can automatically resolve this typo error so I cannot indicate it easily. But in reporting service, it will check this error before the report generated.
