Deployment of a crystal report application with visual 2005

58 Views

Hello all,

I am very new at .NET, and this is my first post to this forum.

I've created a report (example.rpt) with Crystal Reports 2008. Then I've installed "Crystal Report for visual .net 2005 component".

Then I've imported it in a vb.net project using its Crystal Report Application Template, complied it and succesfully tested it on my machine.

My next objective is to manage the deployment of my report on the end-user machine. Here started my problem.....

Following suggestions I found on the net, I tried to create a Setup Project to deploy my application including Crystal Report runtime components; the report is included in the project as an embedded resource. Apparently the setup project as been correctly builded; if I run it my machine everything is ok but on end-user machine it generated this error:

EventType clr20r3, P1 reportarts.exe, P2 1.0.0.0, P3 49feecfc, P4 reportarts, P5 1.0.0.0, P6 49feecfc, P7 e, P8 c6, P9 system.invalidoperationexception, P10 NIL.

I tried on different windows SP2 - SP3 machines, with .NET Framework 2.0 alredy installed but the error is the same.

Can you Help me please???????? THANK YOU in ADVANCE
