Crystal Reports viewers virtual directory
I am developing a ASP.net web app that runs crystal reports and shows them in a cr web viewer.
This working ok so far in the development environment.
I am trying to deploy this to a test machine but when the Web viewer should be displayed I get System.NullReferenceExcept
Googling this it seems that the cause is probably the lack of a crystal reports viewers virtual directory.
Most of the solutions are for earlier versions and I have tried them but it hasn't solved my probelm.
Can anyone help?

Still not sure what I should have for an ASP.NET v2.0 app and CRXI R2 viewers
I don't know. I only know what I can read about. I know some of what I have read, CR XI seems to be an orphaned product. They are keeping it around for compatibility with the COM world.
The version of Crystal that comes with VS2008 is still based on CR10. They have had plenty of time to update it to CR XI if they wanted to.

Interesting
As I say it works under the deveolpment environment.
So the dlls that provide the web cr viewer are not compatible with vs 2008? or .Net 3.5, I suppose.
Can I not produce an asp.net 2.0 web app from vs 2008 that will be compatible with CR XI R2?
This is confusing because the dev environment seem to be ok.
