This question has been asked a few time but each time it was from the perspective of a developer that had the option of recompileing thier project in 32 bit mode. I dont have that luxury. I have a COTS product that uses crystal reports for reporting.

The Microsoft Report Viewer 2008 Redistributable Package includes Windows Forms and ASP.NET Web server controls for viewing reports designed using Microsoft reporting technology. Subject: [Vantage] Re: Crystal Reports XI R2 Runtime on Windows Server 2008 R2 x64 Make sure you are using the odbcad32 file from the Windows-->SysWOW64 folder. Also, in the DSN setup use the server IP address, not the server name. We are using VMWare (R2 64 bit server) and RDS for the clients (R2 64 bit).

I am running SQL Server 2005 as the DB and the Webserver is Windows 2008. I was able to install the server install for the Crystal Viewer and put it in 32 bit mode and get it to work. Now I have another problem. Apparently there is functionality in the COTS program that generates a report and produces a PDF. In this process the Cyrstal Report fails and gives an error of: -------------------------- ---------- - An error has occurred while attempting to load the Crystal Reports runtime. Either the Crystal Reports registry key permissions are insufficient or the Crystal Reports runtime is not installed correctly. Please install the appropriate Crystal Reports redistributable (CRRedist*.msi) containing the correct version of the Crystal Reports runtime (x86, x64, or Itanium) required.

Please go to for more information. -------------------------- ---------- -- SO MY QUESTION IS How can I get a runtime installed on a 64bit 2008 server. I was under the impression that Crystal did not provide a runtime. But I cant imagine others dont have this problem as well.

I cant be the only one using a COTS product that uses crystal. Agree with Ido. This is an OEM problem. You need need to work with the vendor.

Crystal Reports ships with a large number of applications, many of which customize it. I used one application that actually forced Crystal Reports to be installed from their own disk and if you already had any other standalone copies of Crystal Reports on the same machine, the custom install would break them. I actually had it run it in a VM just for reporting against that one product (which had other unique 'features', as well). There is a runtime for CR XI R2. It is a vendor issue. According to this, CR XI R2 SP6 supports 64-bit.

Once installed, again navigate to the installed program's directory like in the 'MP3 Ripper' example above. Cara crack software hwid ban.

It still has to be run in 32-bit mode. Herre is how to rebuild If they are not willing to do that, then that is the issue. Even if there a 64-bit runtime was available, the vendor would have to rebuild the application to use it. You could not just install it an make it work. The vendor could also choose to upgrade to CR2008 or CR2011 which have 64-bit runtimes. Does the vendor product support SSRS?
