Crystal Report 13 with WPFon Windows XP doesn't work

[Former Member]

Hy everybody,

I develop a Wpf application FrameWork 4.0 on Windows 7 64 bit with VS 2010 and Cr 13.

On my machine, no problem with Crytal Report

When I deploy my application on a Windows 7 32 bit : no problem with my crystal reports

When I deploy my application on a Windows XP 32 bit : the crystal reports doesn't work.

When the code arrive to rpt.SetDataSource or rst.SetParameterValue, my application close without any error message.

Strange : I deploy my application on 3 XP. On 2 XP, just after de deployement It has work (two times it has show the report) but then the application close. Uninstall all and reinstall, it has never worked again.

Some help please

Regards

Gridin

See if [Process Monitor|http://technet.microsoft.com/en-ca/sysinternals/bb896645.aspx] tells you anything

Use [Modules|https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100006252802008E/modules.zip] to compare the runtimes.

can you supply some code?

ie - app.config

code on how you call the report may then able to help more?

I remember the bad old days - what as called dll hell -

One other option (this I have done):

Uninstalled the program then .NET4 runtime, then crystal , rebooted then re installed .NET4 runtime do a reboot , then install crystal runtime then a reboot then finally the program, run program if any issues check event viewer and post any error messages from the event viewer. ( I had to do this on one XP machine, turned out a old app had some ddl's register for crystal 9 , causing the issue).

Had same issue -

Install full verison of .net 4 - not client

ensure you install crystal runtime, and the following is in your App.Config file

<startup useLegacyV2RuntimeActivationPolicy="true">

<supportedRuntime version="v4.0" sku=".NETFramework,Version=v4.0" />

</startup>

this did the trick for me.

Thank you for the feedback Michael. Excellent. Forgot that XP more than likely will not have framework 4...

The app.config file suggestion may only be useful if the app is consuming ADO .NET Datasets, but perhaps not...

Gridin, I'd really appreciate your feedback on Michael's suggestions.

Thanks for answers but :

I have well the full Framework 4 installed on XP and I've already have modify the .config

Why has it work two times and then no more times ????

Why the mod in the config? Are you using ADO .NET Datasets?

Re.; Why has it work two times and then no more times ????

- who knows...

Like I said previously, ProcMon and Modules will be the next steps. But at least we know that it work on XP - both for Michael amd my self.

The datasource of the report is an ObservableCollection.

The problem is not only with the datasource

I've made testes with no datasource and only the SetParameterValue

It also crash !!!

I don't understand what your last post has to do with my post before that(?).

Just to say that I don't use ADO.Net dataset
