Crystal Reports 9 .net VS2005 on 64bit machine

[Former Member]

We are planning to move our server to 64 bit machine because of other reasons so we started testing our application on 64 bit machine our application contains crystal reports which are devloped in crystal 9 and indivudal/single reports are opeing/working fine but the reports which contains sub reports are giving "Missing Parameter Value" error.

Details of Enviornment is:

1. We use VS 2005 and .net 2.0 frame work

2. Crystal reports developed in version 9

3. the assemblies crystal reports are using for export is : CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine, Version=10.2.3600.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=692FBEA5521E1304

CrystalDecisions.ReportSource, Version=10.2.3600.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=692FBEA5521E1304

CrystalDecisions.Shared, Version=10.2.3600.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=692FBEA5521E1304

even tried this by installing 1) CRRedist2005_x86.msi 2)crnet20win32x86_en_chf but still no luck...

any help on this one will be greatly appreciated!!!!!!!

Thanks.

Hello Shailaja,

From the error, it looks like you are using the bundled version of Crystal that comes along with Visual Studio 2005 (10.2).

Would like to inform you that the runtimes you are using are for the 32 bit version deployment. There might a 64 bit runtime 'CRRedist2005_x64.msi' present in your machine under the folder

"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\Crystal Reports\CRRedist\x64"

Also, in addition, you need to configure the 64 bit properties from Visual Studio itself in order to build the application for the 64 bit platform

Hope my suggestion helps !

Hi Shailaja,

Try with this:

Change the Platform Target option from "Any CPU" to "x86" from Build menu.

Windows 2008 is your problem. Only version 10.5 (ships with .NET 2008) and Crystal Reports 2008 work on Win 2008. CR 10.5 has a 64 bit component, CR 2008 does not.
