A few weeks ago Crystal Report started giving us a lot of trouble, after having run flawless for a long time, even though no changes has been made in the code
The error:
This error only happens on our Citrix server, running Windows 2000
Two-Three weeks ago, Crystal Report started messing up on all machines (except those running Vista). All of the sudden we got an "Object reference not set..." exception during this line:
Dim report as new rptSomeCrystalReportDocument
The exception was thrown in Dispose of the document (why it was calling dispose, when I was creating the object is still unknown)
The solution was to uninstall the old Crystal Report and install "Crystal Report Basic Runtime for Visual Studio 2008" on the machines getting this problem. This solved the problem on all machines, except for the Citrix machine we have. I wonder if the problem is related to the lack of a C-drive
The .rpt files we're using are created inside our Vb.net project (and follows the installation of the project), so they are not located elsewhere
In my test-project the Crystal Report document is very basic, it's just some almost empty document (it only has a simple text-box with a bit of hardcoded text)
Anybody here who has any idea on what could be wrong?
The error:
VB.NET:
Load report failed.
System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x80004005): The system cannot find the path specified.
