I'm getting this error while tryings to access the reportserver:
"The report server cannot decrypt the symmetric key used to access sensitive or encrypted data in a report server database. You must either restore a backup key or delete all encrypted content. Check the documentation for more information. (rsReportServerDisabled) (rsRPCError)"
How should I resolve this?
Thank you

Solution- Do you happen to have a backup of your encryption key? If not, follow these steps:
- Open Reporting Services Configuration Manager
- Connect to your RS server
- Select 'Encryption Keys' from the left pane
- Press the 'Delete' button to get rid of your encrypted content
- After doing this, you will need to re-set the connection strings and stored credentials on your reports.
- Also, I'd be sure to make a backup of the encryption key afterwards.
- If you do have a backup, press the 'Restore' button instead of the 'Delete' button.
Enjoy
