If you have recently edited your reporting services web.config and can no longer access your reports you may want to check if your web.config file contains an xmlns attribute on the configuration element. If it does, you will not be able to access your report manager. Simply removing the attribute will solve this issue.
I ran into this issue today after i edited a property in the web.config using the IIS tool (under asp.net tab). As i had no idea what had originally caused the issue it took a few hours to figure out that it was because i had edited the web.config with IIS.
Here is the error message that the report manager would display:
"The report server is not responding. Verify that the report server is running and can be accessed from this computer."

Microsoft.ReportingServices.Diagnostics.Utilities.InternalCatalogExcepti
on: An internal error occurred on the report server. See the error log
for more details. ---> System.NullReferenceException:...

As techies, we here at Engage Software were enthusiastic regarding the release of IE7, and subsequently left IE6 behind. However a large number of the population at large, including our clients, are keeping it very much alive. Not being able to install IE6 and IE7 on the same machine has been a frustration in recent days.....but MS has come up with a relatively painless solution.
