    hi all,

    When I was creating a site collection in a new created web application, after clicking 'OK', it skipped to a page with error information which is:

    Error

    The URL 'Reporting Templates/audit.xlsx' is invalid.  It may refer to a nonexistent file or folder, or refer to a valid file or folder that is not in the current Web.

    I never met this before, what's wrong with my farm?

    This is strange this looks dont exist "'Reporting Templates" or dont have audit.xlsx, what template are you using to create the site collection?

    please verify on SharePoint Feature if have "audit.xlsx" file. 
    C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\14\TEMPLATE\FEATURES\Reporting\Templates

    André, I have solved this issue.

    Disconnect the SP and SQL Server, then create a new farm, the issue should be resolved.

    Thanks for your attention though.

    Nope, I did nothing on the farm.

    I just created a Web App, then the error occurrd after clicking 'OK' in site collection creationg page. After that, I tried to replace the reporting center solution from other usuable SharePoint, it still did not work. Finally, I had to recreate the farm and the issue disappearred then.

    There might be some settings or connection between SQL Server reset during the recreation.
