I am trying to use the ASP.NET 2.0 version of Microsoft ReportViewer on our DASP site. I am trying to reference the ReportViewer DLL's in the app's bin directory rather than having them have to be in GAC. I thought I was successful, but when running the application, I get this error: Method not found: 'Void Microsoft.Reporting.WebForms.ReportViewer.Reset()'. This is well-documented online as being due to the server not having SP1 of the ReportViewer. I have placed these files in the \bin directory as specified in this and other posts: http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=1088361&SiteID=1 Microsoft.ReportViewer.Common.dll Microsoft.ReportViewer.WebForms.dll Microsoft.ReportViewer.ProcessingObjectModel.dll All are version 8.0.50727.817 I have also tried pulling version info out of the .aspx tags to ensure that it uses the \bin version, but with no success either: <%@ Register Assembly="Microsoft.ReportViewer.WebForms" Namespace="Microsoft.Reporting.WebForms" TagPrefix="rsweb" %> If anyone has any suggestions, I would be most appreciative. Thanks, Jeff Rhodes
Hi Jeff,I use ReportViewer from GAC on my DASP website (http://www.californiadreamhomesandland.com) without any problem. Why are you trying to use ReportViewer from app?s bin?
Thanks for the reply. I certainly could ask tech support to get SP1 on the server, but this is a commercial application and I'd like to validate that it can be run without an install on each server. Thanks again, Jeff
Hi Jeff, Did you see this? http://community.discountasp.net/default.aspx?f=6&m=23935 Report Server 2008 is version 9. Salute, Mark
I am not even sure if we have Report Viewer 8 SP1 installed since we already installed RS 9 installed. You should be able to load the version in your bin folder though as long as the version is different. Do you know the version number? Bruce DiscountASP.NET www.DiscountASP.NET
