SAP Crystal Report Pre-Requiste when installing windows set up project - crystal-reports

We have a windows application with pre-requisite SAP crystal report for .NET framework 4 . I selected:
"Download prerequisites from the component vendor's website"
for the install location . In few machines, setup gets installed properly. But in some machines, it gives the following error message.
Product: SAP Crystal Reports runtime engine for .NET Framework 4
(32-bit) -- Setup detected an existing installation. Setup must run
with UPGRADE=1 command. Setup will now exit.
Any idea ?

it means you already have sap crystal report installed on your machine , try uninstalling it and then run the installation .

crystal reports not work in client machine with "error '713' Application-defined or object-defined error"

I have a Crystal 8.5 Report in a VB6 application.
The crystal report not run on client machine and get error
"Run-time error '713' Application-defined or object-defined error".
But the crystal report work on programmer machine.
how to run the crystal report successfully on client machine ?
With Thanks.
Crystal Reports is a separate control (OCX) file that needs to be packaged together with your application (EXE) because your client doesn't have it installed on his machine. That's why you need to create an installation package.
Have you tried packaging the application in the form of an installation kit with the "Package and Deployment Wizard" in your Visual Studio installation? That should include all dependencies necessary to run on client machines.

how to solve error 1904 in crystal report runtime installation

I'm installing Crystal Reports Runtime 13.0.22 for my application that has to create some reports but while installing CRforVS 13.0.22 it shows the following error:
The error you are receiving is a Windows error code that could be due to insufficient permissions. Do you have Administrator user permissions on the computer? If not, then you will need to contact someone who does and have them install this for you. If you are, you may simply need to right click the EXE file and choose "Run as Administrator" when trying to install this.
If you don't believe this is a permissions problem, then you could also have a conflicting version of Crystal Reports assemblies already installed. Click Start > Control Panel > Programs and Features and then search for any installed versions of Crystal Reports and uninstall them, then try installing your CR Runtime client again.
I believe you are trying to install SAP Crystal Reports Runtime SP21 or above in Windows 7.
For that you need to install the dependencies:
1- Microsoft Visual C++ 2015 Redistributable package.
2- Microsoft Windows Update KB2999226.
Both require Windows Service Pack 1.
I was getting the same error.
I installed the dependencies above and it solved for me.

Just had this error in SP32.
Install the runtime first, then the visual studio installer.

SAP Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2013 do not work in IIS 7.5

I am using Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2013. The reports work fine on my local computer and in Visual Studio on the production server.
When I deploy them in IIS 7.5 I am getting the following error:
Failed to open the connection. ReportName
3400_4400_{A861BA52-167D-4EAF-AAAF-32B2FB34FFAA}.rpt
Operating System: Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise;
System Type: 64-bit Operating System;
Database: MySQL;
I copied the aspnet_clients folder in the wwwroot folder and in the application folder.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you.
There is 2 things which may cause this issue,
Are you installed the Crystal report runtime? if no, then here is
link1, link2. You can choose 64 bit option.
If you installed CR-runtime, then crystal report does not have connect to sqlserver. So for this, if you able to check your local crystal report with prod sqlconnection, check that and still you have issue, means you are not give sql server credential to crystal report at run-time. Check this link.
Crystal Report throws 'Failed to open the connection.' only on postback

I have some updates!!! I can't believe this was the issue....so frustrating!!!...
On my production server I only created a User DNS...which worked fine with Visual Studio...but not with IIS. After I created a System DNS the report worked fine in IIS as well...

How to run Visual Studio 2005 Crystal Reports app on Windows 8.1 - says can't find CR runtime

I have a VS2005 forms app that uses Crystal Reports (built on a Windows Server 2003 system). I can run the app in Windows 8.1, but when I try to open a report, I get an error saying it cannot find the Crystal Reports runtime. I've installed the CR2005_x86 runtime, and the C++2005 runtime for good measure.
I've also installed VS2005 on the Win 8.1 machine (with its SP1 and SP1 for Vista), can open/edit the reports within VS2005, and can build the app, but this too says it cannot find the CR runtime.
In both cases running with Admin priviledges.
Can anyone help? What am I missing or do I need to upgrade (eg to VS2012)?
Regards,
Tom

unable to load crystal report in windows server 2012

I have created a web application .net 2008 with crystal report. I have deployed it in windows server 2012 64 bit OS. The server is installed with 3.5 and 4.0 .net frame work. The problem is, the crystal report is not displayed in the web page. It doesn't throw any error.
Thanks in advance.
In windows server 2012 it runs IIS 8. Previous versions of crystal report doesnt support IIS8. For running Crystal report for IIS 8 you have to install new
crystal report*(v. 13.0.6.x)*
on your win server machine. Please check following link for downloading crystal report.
