Crystal Report Load Report Failed in VS2010

I trying to create an application in c# with Crystal Report and then I create setup file using publish wizard and delivery to my client.

Now I use following code to bind crystal report in c#.

          ReportDocument doc = new ReportDocument();
          doc.Load("D//CrystalReport1.rpt",CrystalDecisions.Shared.OpenReportMethod.OpenReportByTempCopy);
    
            doc.SetDataSource(dt);
            crystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = doc;
            crystalReportViewer1.Refresh();

At client Side generate following error.

fmPrint 
Unhandled exception has occurred in your application. If you click 
Continue, the application will ignore this error and attempt to continue. If 
you click Quit, the application will close immediately.

Solution

  • 'Load report failed.' exception occurs when the path specified for the .rpt file is incorrect. Please check the file path again. Also try the below code.

    When working for web 

    doc.Load(Server.MapPath("\\CrystalReport1.rpt")",CrystalDecisions.Shared.OpenReportMethod.OpenReportByTempCopy)

    Prefer to put the .rpt file in a folder and also specify the folder location.For eg.

    Make a Folder Reports inside solution and consolidate all the .rpt files inside the folder

    doc.Load(Server.MapPath("\\Reports\\CrystalReport1.rpt")",CrystalDecisions.Shared.OpenReportMethod.OpenReportByTempCopy)

    When working for window

    doc.Load(@"D//CrystalReport1.rpt",CrystalDecisions.Shared.OpenReportMethod.OpenReportByTempCopy)

    trying using with a sign '@'. Hope it helps!
