Crystal reports exception: "The Report Application Server failed"

Question

I'm running the following code:

ReportDocument crystalReport = new ReportDocument();
crystalReport.Load(reportPath);
DataTable dtReportData;
DbUtils.GetSqlResult(dataQuery, out dtReportData);
crystalReport.SetDataSource(dtReportData);

var crDiskFileDestinationOptions = new DiskFileDestinationOptions();
var crFormatTypeOptions = new PdfRtfWordFormatOptions();
crDiskFileDestinationOptions.DiskFileName = pdfFilePath;
crystalReport.PrintOptions.PaperOrientation = PaperOrientation.Landscape;

var crExportOptions = crystalReport.ExportOptions;
{
    crExportOptions.ExportDestinationType = ExportDestinationType.DiskFile;
    crExportOptions.ExportFormatType = ExportFormatType.PortableDocFormat;
    crExportOptions.DestinationOptions = crDiskFileDestinationOptions;
    crExportOptions.FormatOptions = crFormatTypeOptions;
}

crystalReport.Export(); //PROGRAM FAILS HERE WHEN THE DATATABLE CONTAINS 900 OR MORE ROWS
crystalReport.Close();

And it fails when trying to export to pdf a report that has as datasource a table that has more than 900 rows. The exception is:

The Report Application Server failed

And the stacktrace is:

at CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.ConvertDotNetToErom.ThrowDotNetException(Exception e) at CrystalDecisions.ReportSource.EromReportSourceBase.ExportToStream(ExportRequestContext reqContext) at CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.FormatEngine.ExportToStream(ExportRequestContext reqContext) at CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.FormatEngine.Export(ExportRequestContext reqContext) at CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.FormatEngine.Export() at CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument.Export()

Any idea how to approach this problem?

UPDATE

When using Crystal Reports Viewer, I can export the report to PDF while doing the same action from the Crystal Reports Designer is resulting in an error. Is there a way programatically to use the viewer's libraries when exporting a crystal reports object?
