I have issue to include the report viewer. I have this error:

Error 5 To enable 'Download prerequisites from the same location as my application' in the Prerequisites dialog box, you must download file 'ReportViewer\ReportViewer.msi' for item 'Microsoft Report Viewer 2012 Runtime' to your local machine. For more information, see http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=239883. Aamali Program

I have gone to the site and followed all the procedures, download the files and every thing but still the same problem is there. I have downloaded those two files:
1- dotnetfx45_full_Setup.
2- dotnetfx45_full_x86_x64.

Also, I have downloaded the file ReportViewer and install it. I have put all the three files in C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v8.0A\Bootstrapper\Packages\DotNetFX45 but still the same problem and the same error is happening. Can any one help please?

Dear dude
you should set downloaded address in products.xml file:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v8.0A\Bootstrapper\Packages\ReportViewer\en\

Product.xml
<string name="ReportViewerMsi">http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=217022

should be:
<string name="ReportViewerMsi">physical address
