Thanks for your interest in RB Server Edition.

Yes you can run the client and server on the same machine, in fact the trial
version requires it. The trial version is limited to running on localhost
(127.0.0.1), it does not allow remote connections.

Other than a firewall or virus protection or other security software
preventing the connection, it should work.

The Developers Guide, Demos, and Tutorials are installed by both trial and
registered versions.

The default location is Public Documents or Shared Folders on Vista or XP.
The default location is displayed during installation and can be overidden.

I Got my AV shut off and all firewalls (Norton and Windows) shut off

I use port 1333 and LocalHost

I still get a "Cannot connect to server"

Can you run Demos\Servers\Main and then connect to it by running
Demos\Clients\ClientReport Explorer?

ya, and one of the things i notice is that your server stays running.
Whereas mine when i run it, it the form goes away, but it shows that it is
running in the task manager

this is way too weird

anyway, running your code doesn't help me

I followed the exact directions in the review and devlopers guide and mine
wont run

what is the difference?

WHen I removed the rsReportTemplateVolume1 component from my server app, it
worked. Of course i got the explorer window, but it was blank, because now
im not pointing to any files

rbuser

and when i click on any buttons in the explorer toolbar i get access
violations

Im getting no where on something thats suppose to be simple

thanks for trying anyways

Let me know what database you are using and what data access components.
What type of ReportVolume are you using? What is your environment - Windows
version, Delphi version, and I assume you are using RB 11.06 trial edition.

If you zip up your server project and send it to support@ I can take a look
at it.
