CR for VS 2008 is out of support so all you can do is apply the only patch available or upgrade.

You can try using debugdiag or fiddler to find the cause to see what's likely missing from that one server.

Or upgrade all of them...

Hi Akila,

CR for VS 2008 is very old now and no patches available.

Issue is likely due to Adobe Flash being deprecated, CR uses it for parameters, we now use HTML5.

Upgrade to VS 2010->2019 and use the latest CR for VS SP 30 which you can get from here:

Hi Don ,

Thanks for looking into this issue .Upgrading to latest version may fix the issue but since issue is happening only in one server ,and working in rest of the servers, they may not allow it as changes need to be applied in all servers with downtime .

Kindly let me know if there are any other solutions also please .

Do i need to look at visual studio version and adobe flash version in the server causing issue and compare with other servers version .

Regards,

Akila.G
