Jamal,
Is your 😧 Drive accessible by your server? When I add data into an mxd I always add in through a UNC path, I.e. //servername/data/.... This ensures that the server can access the data, have a look at this page:

Jamal,
What I mean is can your server see the 😧 of the machine your data is on. If you have the server on the same machine as your arcgis desktop this should not be a problem.
If the data is on another machine to your server then use a UNC path
