I deploy it using setup wizard

Member 9529406 10-Apr-13 13:05pm

please help me

You need to include log4net as part of your deployment. The error tells you the issue.

Member 9529406 11-Apr-13 2:34am

is the log4net.dll 1.2.10.0 ok for .NET Framework 4???? Please answer me.... please

Member 9529406 11-Apr-13 2:35am

because I saw something on that dll it says that log4net for .NET Framework 1

ZurdoDev 11-Apr-13 7:34am

I don't know. It is whatever log4net you are using. In the properties window for the log4net reference make sure copy local is set to true.

Member 9529406 11-Apr-13 9:22am

how can i set it to true?? what copy local means??

ZurdoDev 11-Apr-13 9:35am

You have a reference to log4net, correct? So, you need to also include log4net.dll in your deployment.

Member 9529406 11-Apr-13 9:37am

yes i have... ok ill try your solution...

This is the exception stack without the code sample, so what's the use?

Please stop posting non-answers as "solution". It can give you abuse reports which eventually may lead to cancellation of your CodeProject membership. And the fact you even self-accepted some formally is just outrageous, a sure way for a ban. I hope you won't do it after this warning.

Comment on any posts, reply to available comments, or use "Improve question" (above).

Solution 1

You've already posted this question[^]. Please do not post the same question twice. If you are not getting responses try to add more information so people can help you.

That said, have you googled[^] the error message? There are a couple of results that link to forums where people have had similar issues and have solved them.

Like this one.[^] Or this one.[^]

Have you tried these?

Member 9529406 11-Apr-13 2:33am

is the log4net.dll 1.2.10.0 ok for .NET Framework 4???? Please answer me.... please

When you install crystal on the win 7 machine, do you install the 32 bit or 64 bit version? Are you compiling your program are you specifying that you are targeting 32 bit or 64 bit in the compile tab of the project settings?

Member 9529406 11-Apr-13 9:17am

i install the 64bit crystal report because the machine is win7 64bit....

not yet.... i just set it to 32bit compiling setting.

Kschuler 11-Apr-13 9:18am

If you compile specifically to 32 bit, then you need to install the 32 bit version of crystal reports on the windows 7 machine.

Member 9529406 11-Apr-13 9:19am

so do you mean i can install a 32bit version of crystal report to a 64bit windows 7 machine??

Kschuler 11-Apr-13 9:23am

Yes.

Member 9529406 11-Apr-13 9:24am

really?? i never try it... i will try it later when my computer windows 7 is available... and i hope it works..

Kschuler 11-Apr-13 9:27am

I have a project that I have to compile as 32 bit in order to get my access database to work. I had to make a special bootstrap to force an install of 32 bit crystal on 64 bit machines. It works. I'm not 100% sure it's the problem you are encountering, though.

Member 9529406 11-Apr-13 9:29am

how can i make that special bootstrap???

Kschuler 11-Apr-13 9:34am

I deploy my project as a ClickOnce application. So I'm not sure if the way I did it will be the same as the way you'd need to with a setup project. I followed instructions that I found on MSDN. I had to take a copy of the existing Crystal Install bootstrap and modify a couple of files. If the instructions don't work for you, I'm sure you can find ones specifically for a setup project on MSDN. Here is what I used:
