title: VS2005 + Crystal Report error 'The Report Application Server failed'
body: <p>I use VS2005, Crystal Report for VS2005 and Microsoft SQL Server 2005. I got a report, crystal report linked to a XSD, that displays perfectly when I call it from my application.</p>
  
  <p>I added an 'image' field in my source table to add a an image to the table record (image in jpeg format). I store my image in the databse using VB.Net, the image is converted to an array of bytes. I added the field to my XSD file also, type : System.Byte().</p>
  
  <p>Then I added the field to my report, now I get the message 'The Report Server failed'. I get this message on opening the report, the pop-up is displayed but never the report.</p>
  
  <p>I read that when using Crystal Report &amp; Stored Procs, it's best not to use BMP files, I tried JPG and PNG, didn't work either.</p>
  
  <p>Any help? Please.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks</p>
