    Hi,

    it seems the server block the connection to CRM. Please check if you can access crm from that server.

    Hi,

    If your code works from your machine but not on server then it the machine specifc issue. Check if your able to connect to your crm from that server. If not, you need to fix that. May be something is bloking crm access from the server.

    Hope this helps.
