Hi Babu ,
We have a problem with crystal reports. We developed a web application in .Net. We used Visual Studio.Net 2003 to develop the application. And for developing reports for web application we used crystal reports supplied along VS.Net 2003.
We created crystal reports and those are working fine at our end. But the same reports are giving error 'Load report failed' when we host the application at client's place (Windows 2003 Advanced Server). We have investigated the problem and found that, this is because of permission that has set for 'Temp' directory of WINNT/Windows. We asked client, to give access permissions for IIS_WPM for Temp fielder. But they are not allowing to do it because of security issues and they asked us, instead of using default 'Temp' folder to create temporary reports, create your own temp folder in the application and let crystal reports engine create temporary reports in that folder. For this to be done we can set environment variable for TMP/TEMP to 'Application Temp'. The problem with the above one is, all the temporary files those will be created in WINNT/Temp (not only temporary reports) now redirect to application temp folder. This should not be happened. We need only crystal reports temp files should create in our application temp folder.
Your help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Suresh Reddy.
