backup of existing Reports and restore on new server

I was working with SSRS September CTP release and developed few reports. there are still few queries are open and working it to fix.

Meanwhile recently I shifted my reports from SSRS 2005 September CTP release to SSRS 2005 final release, before moving my reports I took backup as shown below,

- By using Report Manager, I went to edit report properties and save all report definition files ( like rdl files, Model smdl file)

Unfortunately, I was not able to restore these report files on new SSRS system. Am I missing something here?

Otherwise it is a complete rework for me to make all reports again. and this will continue as and when I need to move my reports to live environment.

This should work, what error message were you seeing?

I am getting following error,

Error in class instance declaration for class Microsoft.ReportingServices.SemanticQueryReportLibrary.DrillthroughContextBuilder: [BC30002] Type 'Microsoft.ReportingServices.SemanticQueryReportLibrary.DrillthroughContextBuilder' is not defined. (rsCompilerErrorInClassInstanceDeclaration)

Details
Event ID:rsCompilerErrorInClassInstanceDeclaration
Source:Microsoft.ReportingServices.ReportProcessing.RPRes

And there is no online help available for this exception.

My assumptions are,

1. GUID for my semantic model is different from which I compiled and deploy again. All of old report is mapping to definition in old semantic model.

2. All of my reports are having navigation from one report to another with parameter, which i modified using report designer. This may cause a problem to identify definition of my reports while uploading to Report server using Report Manager.
