I have a report that I want to save and I am not getting any errors but things do not seem to be saving either.

In the gateway logs, I set everything related to Reporting to `Trace`. No error appears. I just see that its about to write the PDF and stops -

Last log

```auto
[projectName=Labeler,reportPath=alarms/FullDayAlarms] About to write PDF report to path C:\REPORTS\Alarms\AlarmReport 06-01-22 12 AM.pdf

```

But no error appears and no report appears in that location so I am at a loss. Any ideas what is going wrong?

Maybe a dumb question, but are you looking for the file on the gateway? `executeAndDistribute` would save to the gateway not the client I believe.
