Required DLLs/OCX/Other Files for Crystal Report

I have one application installer that uses crystal report for reporting. However since the installer does not have any crystal report related dll/ocx or other files, I am not able to run the application.
Can you please tell all the dependency files for Crystal Report ? I already tried to copy over Crpe32.dll, Crystal32.ocx but no success.
Please advise.
Thanks,
Anurag
You can download the run time for crystal report from the SAP website and run it.

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.

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...

Crystal Reports - applications with embedded reports

I have a SQL server database on my customer's server which is accessed by aprox 20 users through a winforms client application installed on individual machines.
I was thinking of using Crystal Reports to produce management reports etc and embedding this into my winforms application. However would this mean that crystal reports needs to be installed on every individual client machine, or just on the server?
For winforms you will need to install the Crystal Reports Runtime on the client machines so that they can view and interact with your Reports. You should be able to get the Runtime (msi) from SAP's website or sometimes it will come with your download when you purchase/download the software online (that was the case for me when I got the dev version for 2012).
SAP Crystal Reports, developer version for Microsoft Visual Studio - 2012 Now Available for Download
If that is not your version just Google for your specifics and you should be able to find what what you need.
BukHix is right, you need to install the runtime on each machine.
If you don't want to do this you can consider implementing a report scheduler, which will run the reports on the server and will deliver them to the management as excel, pdf or any other applicable file type

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.
