Why won't Crystal Reports 2016 connect to crystal server

Former Member

I am in the process of evaluating Crystal Server and Crystal Reports 2016. I have downloaded both current versions and have Crystal Server up and running. The problem I am having is when I try to connect to the Crystal Server installation from within the desktop version so that I can upload a report, I am getting an "Internal error" message.

The server is version 14.2.2.1975, and the desktop client is version 14.2.4.2410.

Does anyone have any idea what might be causing this?

If you're still experiencing this issue, Michael, can you provide some more details around where Crystal Reports is installed and when you get that 'internal error' message, please?

There are a number of ways to upload a report to Crystal Server from Crystal Reports. Two are outlined with these tutorial videos: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NjvLHr-JuZA and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hulaNlrnqNU. You can also upload a document from the BI Launch Pad interface for Crystal Server: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lFCXHu5003c,
