Hey all!

Our PDF report server stopped working just after our upgrade to 4.3. Any ideas?

Same problem here, following our 4.3 upgrade. Did you manage to get anywhere troubleshooting this one? If not, I'm going to some digging and raise a support case if necessary.

Nope. After a reboot, it started working again, but has since stopped working...

same here. I'd really like to see a solution to this one 🙂

Some reports work, some don't.
