Resolution

  • To clarify what versions are supported:
Crystal Reports For Visual Studio 2015 Download
  1. The standard support for CR/BOE is the latest current version less 2, for example CR 2016 SP 6 = Supported CR 2016 SP 4 and 5. Minor patches follow the same rules.
  2. CR for VS is different, we only release full builds, no patches are available and never will be.

There are mulitiple variations on versions of Crystal Reports runtime and Crystal Reports Designer as well as third party applications that can use various versions of CR Designer and CR for VS side by side.

Like CR Designer you can only have one version of CR 2011, 2013 and 2016 installed at any time. CR for VS cannot be side by side with another version.

  • List of recommended steps before installing Crystal Reports for Visual Studio:
  1. Install or confirm Microsoft KB2999226 - Update for Universal C Runtime in Windows is installed, it is a must requirement, as noted on the download WIKI.
  2. Install Microsoft Visual Studio ( 2010 and above ) including any Framework versions and patch them to current updates.
  3. On the Developers PC download the EXE ( it's the yellow button on the CR for VS download page )
  4. Right click on the EXE and select Run as Administrator, it is not enough to just run it even if you are a local Admin.
  5. This integrates CR runtime into Visual Studio so the Embedded Report Designer is available as well as the New Project Templates
  6. Last step of the installer is an option to install the 64 bit runtime package, do so if you are planning to compile your application in 64 bit mode.

Note: CR for VS is set for your application platform and not the Operating system platform - x86 or x64

Note2: Specifically set the Project for x86 or x64 and not AnyCPU

  • List of steps when upgrading and existing install of CR for VS on the Developers PC.
  1. Stop all instances of Visual Studio and existing application in either Debug or Release mode
  2. Open Programs and Files and uninstall the 64 bit runtime package first - SAP Crystal Reports runtime engine for .NET Framework (64-bit)
  3. Once completed now uninstall SAP Crystal Reports, version for Microsoft Visual Studio
  4. Now that has been done right click on setup.exe and select Run As Administrator.

Note: a reboot may be required, just in case something was locking one of the runtime files.

  • As a check to verify all parts are removed before upgrading search your PC for crpe32.dll, if any are found, assuming no other applications are using it, rename them to crpe32.org, do not use crpe32.dll.org, Windows will still finds it.
  • After uninstalling and before installing you should have nothing in this folder except for any Custom UFL's and possibly other files like an install log. You should back those up as well.
  • C:Program Files (x86)SAP BusinessObjectsCrystal Reports for .NET Framework 4.0
  • Updating Runtime only Computers
  1. Check Programs and Features for any existing runtime packages installed
  2. If any exist uninstall first
  3. Copy the MSI package onto the PC and right click and run or just double click on it. Required be logged in as a local Administrator, the runtime needs permission to create registry keys, register COM dll's etc.
  4. NOTE: there are also 32 bit Merge Modules and Click Once packages, for those consult the proper way to include/distribute those accroding to Visual Studio Packaging practices.

If anything goes wrong you can always find the install log here:

C:Program Files (x86)SAP BusinessObjectsCrystal Reports for .NET Framework 4.0CommonSAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0logging

If it fails before that folder is created look in this folder:

%USER%AppDataLocalApps2.0

There should be a partial install log there.
