The report server by default does not have any reports. What you are seeing is the listing of the files on the server, in this case there are none.

However, the other issue you may be having is that you have not setup your user account to have full admin rights on the server. This link is related to TFS integration but you can simply swap out the application-tier with your report server name. Remember you need to do this from the report server the first time, using administrator credentials.

Other than that everything appears to be working properly.
