Problems when Oracle running on same machine

I was deploying my Report Model in Visual Studio but got an error that it couldnt connect to my Report Server while it was running.

When i typed the address of my ReportServer I got an error, then when I typed the name of the localhost  got an Oracle screen. So then I decided to turn off all the Oracle things running on the machine. Then when I tried to deploy again it worked and I could go to my ReportServer without problems.

Problems when Oracle running on same machine

    I think this is the reason as well, I just wanted to point this out to other users that they should look at this when they cannot connect to their ReportServer when Oracle is running. Is there a way that I can give preference to Microsoft instead of Oracle

    I assume you aren't trying to build a Report Model on top of Oracle, it just happens to be running. The only thing I can think is that Oracle is taking over the HTTP port configured for Reporting Services.

    I'm not very familiar with Oracle's HTTP stack. You don't mention which version of Oracle you are using but 10g comes with a modified version of Apache called OHS. I think there are configurations where you can tell it to listen on a port not managed by IIS.
