SSRS rendering error

Question

I am running SSRS reports from a PowerShell script. I have it working great on our development server. I had it deployed out test server and it is throwing this error. I can't figure out what would be different between the enviroments that would cause this
issue. Thanks in advance for any response. This is the error I get in the test enviroment when trying to render a PDF this is the line of Code I use that work in development.
$bytes = $rv.ServerReport.Render(“PDF”);
Exception calling "Render" with "1" argument(s): "An error has
occurred during report processing.

Hello,
Did you check the .NET Farmework version on the dev and test server? The
Render method support an overload that takes one parameter in .NET 4.0, but it is not support in previous versions. You can try to upgrade  the .NET Farmework to 4.0 or later version and then try again.
Or you can call the Render method with this overload on the test server:
LocalReport.Render (String, String, out String, out String, out String, out String[], out Warning[])
For example:
$mimeType = $null; $encoding = $null; $extension = $null; $streamids = $null; $warnings = $null;
 $bytes = $rv.ServerReport.Render(“PDF”, $null, [ref] $mimeType, [ref] $encoding, [ref] $extension, [ref] $streamids, [ref] $warnings);
