What exactly is the proper way to install the Crystal Runtime? I created a basic MSI project and checked the following merge modules: ATL 3.0 Crystal Reports 9 - Crystal Reports Engine components (required) Crystal Reports 9 - Report Designer Component Crystal Reports 9 - Seagate Registration Wizard (required) Now, I entered my developer installation key into the License Key text box for the Merge Module 'Crystal Reports 9 - Seagate Registration Wizard (required)'. After I did so, I then built successfully the setup project and then deployed it to a test machine. When I tried to open a report, using Crystal Reports testing code, I got the following: 'You are attempting to use functionality that falls under the Crystal Decisions Report Creation API license.

InnoScript Support - Crystal Reports Merge Module Deployment Support for. Crystal Reports 8.5 Runtime Installation.

This system does not have a valid license, or the evaluation copy of the license has expired. Please contact Crystal Decisions to obtain a Report Creation API license.' So I am supposed to get ANOTHER license key to actually install the crystal runtime to display a crystal report that users cannot change???

Serial keygen patch. Links still work if you have them. ❗ Please note:To integrate “SAP Crystal Reports, developer version for Microsoft Visual Studio” you must run the Install Executable. Running the MSI will not fully integrate Crystal Reports into VS. MSI files by definition are for runtime distribution only.

By default Windows 10 does not install the 3.5 framework, CR for VS still needs it. Select it by “Turn Windows feature on or off” and choose both options. ❗ Note 2: SAP Crystal Reports, Developer Version for Visual Studio.NET does NOT support Express Editions of any version of Visual Studio.NET.
