If you get the above error when trying to create a SQL Server Reporting Service Service Application with SharePoint Server 2013 Preview, you will need to register the RS Service Proxy via powershell..

Follow these steps to do this:

  1. SharePoint 2010 Management Shell with administrator privileges.Right click the icon and click, “Run As Administrator”. Run the following three cmdlets from the shell:
    • Install-SPRSService
    • Install-SPRSServiceProxy
    • Get-SPServiceInstance -all |where {$_.TypeName -like “SQL Server Reporting*”} | Start-SPServiceInstance
  2. Verify the SQL Server Reporting Services Service shows status as “Started” on the page: SharePoint 2010 Central Administration -> “Application Management” -> “Manage Services on Server”

Now attempt to create a RS Service Application, it should complete without fail.
