Hello everyone!
As my first official post on here, I was wondering if someone could help me understand the below error, and how to correct it.
I recently discovered the world of Crystal Reports, and when experimenting around at home, have come across the following issue on my dev test machine: This error doesn't happen on any of the other servers, using the same standard report.
I have already verified that my database is able to be connected to (how my web-app works is that I login to the webapp, and the code loops through the sub reports and overrides the connection string with the username, password, server and database that I am currently using).
Here's the machine stats, if this helps:
1. Crystal Reports Runtime 2008 SP2
2. MS SQL Server 2012 (Standard)
3. Windows Server 2008
4. IIS AppPool settings:
NET version = 4
Managed Pipeline Mode = Classic
Allow 32-bit applications = True
Now, I have already tried to fill in the fields that the Runtime control is displaying, but when I go to hit "Log on", the report still fails to load. Again, if I copy this same report to another machine with the same information as above, then it works. I tried to find the problem myself, but I am not a server-guy; thought just running the runtime installer would be enough to display the reports.
Checking with Process Monitor (Procmon) and Fiddler did not reveal anything unusual to my eyes (I'm used to using both tools to find errors).
My questions would be:
1. Why does the report prompt me for more information? I have verified that the code I wrote passes the correct server, database, username, and password for the connection string override.
2. Is there any way (from the information I have given) to overcome this error?
Can anyone help point me in the right direction to resolve this?
