How to connect to Crystal Enterprise 10

[pacificpear]

Hi all,
I have recently started working on crystal reports.I am using CR10,Crystal enterprise 10 and SQL server.
when i try to connect to enterprise it says
"unable to retrieve cluster member,no cms host running at port 6400.."

can anyone help...

Are you running Crystal enterprise 10 on a Windows server?

Is IIS running on that server?

Is the CE-CMS service running on that server?

Do you have any firewalls between yourself and the server that may be blocking those ports?

All good places to start looking....

Yes,I am running crystal enterprise 10 on windows server(on my laptop)
-do i have to intall a server on my laptop(i am very new in this field so please do not mind my basic questions)
-How do i know that CE-CMS service running on my server.
-Crystal report application server is running on my laptop

Start MENU ->
Programs ->
Crystal Enterprise 10 ->
Crystal Configuration Manager.

It will show you what crystal services are running.
