Hi, I am trying to create a silverlight application that calls the ReportExecution2005 webservice and it seems that silverlight wants a CrossDomain.xml file at the root of the domain hosting the ReportExecution2005 webservice. In reporting services 2005 I can add the CrossDomain.xml to the root of the app pool hosting the webservice through IIS but I can't figure out how to add it in SSRS 2008 since the web service is hosted by Sys.Http. Does anyone know how I would add the CrossDomain.xml in SSRS 2008? Thanks, Eric Nelson

You can use IIS to host the cross domain policy XML file. Although SSRS 2008 web service is self-hosted, the cross-domain XML file must be hosted at the domain root because that is where Silverlight will look for it. See also this thread on the same issue. Hope that helps, Denesh.This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.

I am having the same issue the above suggested solution does not solve the problem. My IIS instance is running on port 80, because of that I have to run my SSRS instance on port 8080. If I change SSRS to run on port 80, it no longer responds, I assume because IIS is picking it up. Is there another options for getting cross domain policie files on the SSRS server? Seems like something that could be a major issue if there is no work around. I appreciate the self hosted SSRS, but in this case its been a real hinderance not being able to have IIS host SSRS. So my exact environment is setup as follows: IIS is running on port 80. SSRS 2008 is running on port 8080. If I modify SSRS to run on port 80, it no longer responds.
