Hi all,
I have a simple web app which I created using VS2012 asp.net Web Forms. I added a ssrs report which is showing correctly when requested. However, when I try to export this report to pdf, a login is requested.
What I supposed was that some resource was prohibited, so I commented out this in my web config and exporting to pdf executed normally, without asking the user for a login:
<system.web><authorization><deny users="*" /></authorization></system.web>
Prior to above statements, I disallow default.aspx to unauthenticated users, so users must login when opening the web app.
When I commented out above statements in web.config, I could get the report and export to pdf also (without having to do a login). If I uncomment above statements, exporting to pdf requieres login. So, my question is:
What resource is asp.net protecting so users have to login when trying to export to pdf??? Do I have to issue a:
<allow users="*"> (or even <allow users="?">)
to some resource, so users can export to pdf without having to login?
Any help is very welcomed ... thanks and bye ...
