A generic error occurred in GDI+, 1 page report with no images other than the drilldown icons

[Ralph]

1 page report with drill down.
Runs just fine locally. On the server I get:
​

Hello Ralph,

It seems that there are some restrictions on the server, like read/write permissions. Also please check this Medium Trust Support help article.

Hi Rajashree,

Please check my colleague's suggestions in the previous post. Test running the application on other machines as well.

In order to investigate the problem further, open a support ticket and send us a demo project reproducing the problem.
