    The problem is not in my machine with the Visual studio but when I send it to the server that will runs the application.

     

    In my machine it runs normally...

    hi there,

    If you are using vs.net, crystal reports component is included in the package of vs.net. Please essure that you include the crystal reports during installation.  If you upgrade a higher version of crystal reports, upon installing the newer version of crystal reports it automatically updates the .net crystal reports component. You can reinstall your vs.net to make sure your application may not encounter your problem.

    Check the dependencies with Dependency Walker for example.

    This gets tricky.  I had a tough time with this too.  You need to download the Crystal "Merge Modules".  Then create a Setup project within you solution, and add the Crystal Merge Module(s).  Compile everything.  Then run the .msi file that is created on the server.  This msi will install Crystal on the server, and create the IIS virtual directory for your application.

    hi there,

    Add references to the following in your app:

    CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine

    CrystalDecisions.ReportSource

    CrystalDecisions.Shared

    Hope this helps.
