Invalid export DLL or export format

Former Member — Mon, 04 Aug 2008 00:17:33 GMT

I have created a code to export the report to excel and it works.. but when i use the export property of the crystal report viewer, all file format works except for the excel format and I am receiving this kind of message whenever I tried using export property of the crystal report viewer..

"Error in File rpt017 {4742A80B-0356-499C-9B57-BE59A69BD788}.rpt: Invalid export DLL or export format."

any idea? someone?

Hello Angelo,

I would try 2 things:

First, try to export this report to Excel from the CR Designer and see if that works.

Second, try other sampels reports from us and see if they work.

There might be a problem with this report, there might be a problem with the code or the dlls.

These 2 small tests give a better pic.

Best regards

Falk

You also don't specify which version of Crystal Resorts you are using. this is important. Always specify the version of CR you are using when posting to the forum. If Falk's suggestions do not help, please give us the above information.

When I used CR2005, everything works fine, but when i revert it to CR2008, all export format works except for the excel format..

I have already tried exporting it in the CR Designer, but when I entered username and password, an error occured stating report cannot be found.. but before I entered the username and password, I could still preview the report.. I am using an oracle database..

Re: Invalid export DLL or export format

OK, let's back up a bit. Please confirm the following:

1) Error on your development computer, when you export from the viewer button is; Invalid export DLL or export format

2) The same report exports from the CR designer with no issue

3) The error only happens with excel export

4) This is a web app

5) you are using CR 2008

Now a few questions:

1) What version of .NET are you using?

2) If you are using CR 2008, have you applied SP0? It is available from here:

http://resources.businessobjects.com/akdlm/crystalreportsupdate/crystalreports2008.zip

And a suggestion:

After you apply SP0, if the app still does not work, create a simple, one line windows app. Use a saved data report so you do not have to worry about database logons. Can you exp[ort from the windows app?

everything you stated above is true.. I am using VS2005 framework 2.0.. the report is made on CR2005 and was converted to CR2008 which is what I am currently using..

I can't find the link you've given sir.. any other link where I could get SP0?

Thanks for the time sir..

Apologies for that link. They keep changing things in this port to SAP. The correct link is this:

I have already did what you have told me.. I have installed sp0, created a simple windows application, and I could export the report to any format.. but I still can't export from my web application..

I could also export from the visual studio CRdesigner but still can't export from the web app.. any other solutions in mind sir?

thanks again..

Hi, Angelo;

As the Windows application works, but Web does not, it could be a permissions issue. In the error, does it give a path to the report file that is failing? If so, give full permissions to the account running the IIS process to that folder. If you are not sure which account this is, bring up Task Manager, and on the processes tab it lists which accounts are running which services.

If that doesn't help, try running Process Monitor from Microsoft:

I tried to create a new web project with new reports, and it works.. but my problem is, I want to use my existing reports. my existing reports can't export to excel.. I don't know what's missing..

Re: Invalid export DLL or export format

Former Member — Fri, 08 Aug 2008 13:35:07 GMT

I think this is now a matter of trying to figure out the differences between the two web apps. It does not sound like a missing dll as both projects will use the same engine and assemblies and thus all the other dlls.

What you may want to do now is;

1) take the new project and try to run the same reports the other app is using.

2) Look at coding differences. Are you using sessions, post backs etc., in the original app and not the new one?

3) Check for differences in the reports. Subreports in one app, not the other? Different types of db conenctions? Etc.

4) This may be a good time to do a bit of tracing using a utility called Charles. Charles is available from here:

I have already tried comparing the codes of each project.. and even copied everything from the web config of the functioning project.. .. the problem is still the same.. I have also tried using my old reports on the new project, and everything works fine.. and i am also using the same database.. i can't figure out what I missed..

Will be possible to use FileMon to find out what is going on when running your Web App ?

Also on which mode IIS is running? IIS 6.0 or IIS5.0? because you have to add ASPNET or IIS_WPG to the DACL and assign the proper permission and think of configuring the application pool on which your app is running in case if IIS running in Isolation mode.

You might take this advise in consideration because by looking at your web.config, it seems like you are using the Forms authentication mode.

Cheers

I also advised you to use Filemon to verify security permission on files, but I think you can also run module utility to catch all the dll(s) that are loaded when running your App. You will see the set of dll(s) associated to your .exe. The tool can enable you to do some comparison between 2 environments.

You can download the tool at: https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100006252802008E/modules.zip.

But there is something I would like you to verify: Is the microsoft module msvcp60.dll (module containing standard C library) present in the system32 and registered. I am saying that because It seems like I came accross this issue already.

Module utility will be there to verify if the msvcp60.dll is loaded when you will launch your app.

I hope this might help.

Cheers
