Hi,
I have had a website up and running for the past year with a Crystal Report successfully displaying within it (ASP.Net 4.0, WIndows Server Web edition). So I am confident that everything is set up right to work. We have recently updated the website, shipping a new version. I am displaying the report in exactly the same way (using the CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument.Load(...) functionality referencing a file directly). I set it's datasource and all works fine and data is displayed.
Some of the time.
It's an intermittent problem where a user will try and display the report and an error is caught in the exception handling saying 'Load report failed'. I log on to the website and try out a test report and I find the same happens to me. If left alone, the problem goes away after a couple of hours.
The path to the report (.rpt file) is contained within the web.config file and if I change the folder that the report is located in and point the web.config file to that folder it all works again straight away.
Any help/ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks
Julian
