Is it possible to install multiple Crystal Reports runtime engine for .NET Framework on client serve-CodePudding

We have to maintain two version of a .NET app in the same server.

They have two different sites created in IIS

Current version uses:

SAP Crystal Reports runtime engine for .NET Framework (13.0.32.4286)

While the older version:

Version (13.0.23.2819).

Is there any way I can use both in the same machine ?

CodePudding user response：

You can redirect the older app (using SP23) to use the newer runtime (SP32) by creating/editing the exe.config or web config file.

Here is an old example. Adjust it to fit your needs:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
<startup><supportedRuntime version="v4.0" sku=".NETFramework,Version=v4.0"/></startup>
