Hi All, I have deployed a number of ISA servers on a satellite network for branches country wide. I draw reports on a daily basis without any problems. The issue I have is with the most recent ISA server which I have installed in our DMZ to replace Gauntlet. For some reason the reporting function show successful but with no output when trying to view the reports in IE. I have checked the log files and they are generated. Has anyone had the experienced similar issues with reporting?

BM__Toc511119991Q. I cannot seem to draw reports for the current day. It creates them but I can't seem to open and view them. All previous reports (of the days before)can be opened and viewed though. ISA Server creates reports from log summaries. The summaries are created at 1230AM and the reports are created from those summaries. So, even if you were to tell it to run a report *now*, it won't be able to give today's data until 1230AM the next day. BM__Toc511120188Q. Is it possible to run a report on today's usage and logs? I just tried to get a report run for today. I set the report generation to immediate, set the period to today. The report appears to have been generated successfully (status 0) but when I try to open the report up under the Monitoring/Reports/Whatever container, The cursor just briefly turns into an hourglass and nothing happens. I try to save the report to the hard drive. I go thru the Save As dialog box, but no file gets generated. The reports are based on "log summaries" which are derived from the logs. In the Monitoring Configuration/Logs folder, you right click on the Logs folder, go to Properties, and then click on the Log Summaries tab, and make sure the "Enable daily and monthly summaries" is enabled. Even though the logs are updated throughout the day, the log summaries are created at 1230AM each day. Wait until after 1230AM and then try to create the report again. Check the \Microsoft ISA Server\ISASummaries folder to see the list of summaries that have been created. FAQ answered by Tom Shinder.

What am I doing wrong? Make sure that you are actually generating the reports and not just looking in the 'Monitoring/Reports' section. To generate reports, do the following: · Go to 'Monitoring Configuration' -> 'Report Jobs' · Right click and select 'New > Report Job..' · Fill out the wizard (Start report generation: Immediately) · Wait a few seconds. Now go back to the 'Monitoring' -> 'Reports' section and there should be reports. One under each (Summary, Web Usage, etc...)
