Deployment

[mzainal]

Hi All,

After deploying a VB.NET windows project with a CrystalReportViewer on the client's machine I'm getting the following error:

"Cannot Find keycodev2.dll, or invalid keycode"

Any help will be appreciated,

thanks.

Did you check the users machine to make sure that dll was there and registered properly?

Thanks for your reply, but how do you go about doing that ? Do you have a list of required DLLs ? How do you register them ?

thanks.

Did you create a setup file before you deployed, or did you just give the user a copy of the exe? If you just gave the user a copy of the exe, then there's you're problem. You should create a setup so that all the necessary files can be installed on the users machine.

The list of required dlls is different depending on what part of Crystal you're using. CrystalReportViewer is not the only part of Crystal that's being used.

I use Crystal Reports 8.5. That version comes with a file called runtime.hlp which contains a list of all the Crystal Files required for deployment. You can search on www.google.com or Crystal's website (http://support.businessobjects.com/search/advsearch.asp) to try and find a list of the files that you need.

Also, look here. I found this by typing in keycodev2.dll into Google and hitting the search button.
