With the increasing number of versions of Crystal Reports and Visual Studio.NET, there is some confusion on which Crystal Reports runtime needs to be distributed with which version of Visual Studio.NET (VS.NET). In this article, I want to clarify what MSM or MSI files belong to which version of Crystal Reports and which of these will work on VS. Rockwell 14 Bandsaw Manual. NET 2002, 2003, 2005 and 2008. I have also added supported Operating System field as well as supported framework for each version of Crystal Reports. As each version of Crystal Reports has its' own specific runtime which must be correctly deployed, it is critical that the deployed runtime be in agreement with the Crystal Reports assemblies for Visual Studio.NET referenced in your project. Also, note that the CR.NET component relies on COM Interop for the backend report processing engine. It is therefore imperative that all runtime deployments are done by use of the MSM or MSI files.

XCopy deployments are not supported, nor will they work. The following matrix is a summary of runtime information for Crystal Reports from Version 9.1 for VS.NET 2002 to version 2008.

Please note; any comments are very appreciated. However support queries or questions regarding details of deployment should be submitted to the ' forum. I have an application designed in.net 2005 along with CR XI R2. It works fine in my development machine and production server ( windows 2003 + IIS 6) but when I install the same application in another production server (windows server 2008 + IIS 7), my crystal reports are not coming properly.The images in Report/Page header is not being displayed.

In windows/ temp folder i can see that image but it is not been rendered in the report. Once a report is generated ( without the images ) the IIS working process crashes and so i need to reset the IIS every time. Any suggestions??

Kindly suggest the user rights to be given to windows/ temp folder OR any other folders. I've just downloaded the Crysatl 2008 SP1 merge modules (cr121_mm.zip) again in hopes there would be documentation included in the.zip file, but there is not.
