Error saying that MSSQL 2005 SP2 is required,while Installing AX 2009 Reporting Extensions


Installing AX 2009 Reporting Extensions in MSSQL 2008 & WIN 2008 When we try to install AX 2009 SP1 Reporting Services on a PC running SQL 2008, we get an error saying that MSSQL 2005 SP2 is required. Well there is a solution to this issue which is as follows:
1. Locate the AX Reporting services dll from the extracted AX 2009 SP1 folder [\\AX2009SP1\support\axsetupresources\microsoft.dynamics.setup.reportingservices.dll;File Version - 5.0.1000.52]

2. Copy the microsoft.dynamics.setup.reportingservices.dll into the folder: \\DynamicsAX\Msi\Components32\Program Files\Microsoft Dynamics AX\50\Setup [since my system is 32-bit so Components32]

3. It will ask to replace the existing dll having File Version - 5.0.593.0. Say Yes and replace. Now, carry on with the installation process.
