  Hi Brett,

  Could you please confirm whether you are working with ActiveReports.NET or ActiveReportsJS?

  If you are working with ActiveReportsJS, could you please let us know more about how you are licensing your project and also share a screenshot of the error you are getting?
  
  To license an ActiveReportsJS project, you’ll need to use the ‘setLicenseKey’ method. Please refer to: https://developer.mescius.com/activereportsjs/docs/GettingStarted/Licensing#reactjs,-angular,-and-vue-applications

  However, if you are working with ActiveReports.NET, we recommend that you create a case in ActiveReportsNET forums to avoid any confusion. Please also add the details about your project structure, type and the screenshot of the error you are getting in the new case for us to better understand your issue.

  Thanks,
  
  Anand

  Good Day

  I am using ActivereportsJS, i had put a setLicense key in the code. I attached this code.

  I am using a distribution License, due to it being server generated, i used localhost?
  
  See attached screenshot.

  Regards

  Hi Brett,

  In your case, please make sure you generate a distribution license key using the steps given here: Generating Distribution Keys for your domain and use it within the ‘setLicenseKey’ to avoid any invalid license error.
  
  To learn more about using ActiveReports on the server side, you may refer to: Server-side reporting.

  Also, we observed you have a license for ActiveReportsJS v2. Please make sure the version of ActiveReportsJS in your project matches the version of the license you are using to avoid any invalid license issues.

  If you’d like to upgrade to the latest version of ActiveReportsJS (i.e. v6) or have any other license-specific queries, you may reach out to our sales team at us.sales@mescius.com.

  Regards,
  
  Anand
