Unknown server tag 'rsweb:ReportViewer'

Question

I am a newbie to asp.net and trying to use report viewer control for my reports in sharepoint.

In my web.config file i added this line:

<SafeControl Assembly="Microsoft.ReportViewer.WebForms, Version=9.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a" namespace="Microsoft.Reporting.WebForms.ReportViewer" TypeName="*" Safe="True"/>

In my aspx page I registered the assembly

<%@ Register assembly="Microsoft.ReportViewer.WebForms, Version=9.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a" namespace="Microsoft.Reporting.WebForms" tagprefix="rsweb" %>

It gives me this error:

The control type 'Microsoft.Reporting.WebForms.ReportViewer' is not allowed on this page. The type is not registered as safe.

When I change the code in my aspx page to this

<%@ Register assembly="Microsoft.ReportViewer.WebForms, Version=9.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a" namespace="Microsoft.Reporting.WebForms.ReportViewer" tagprefix="rsweb" %>

I get this:

An error occurred during the processing of . Unknown server tag 'rsweb:ReportViewer'.

Can anyone help me? Thanks

You need to install the ReportViewer, that can be found on microsoft downloads.
