Show crystal report in another folder using mvc web app - model-view-controller

My Crystal report is in a separate location. I want to show that the report using web app.i has already installed CR runtime and Crystal report for a visual studio in my local machine. But when I host it on my server I need to install CR runtime and Crystal report for visual studio. But I was unable to install the Crystal report for visual studio because there is no visual studio installed in a server. Give error "you must already install visual studio 2010 or other. How can I solve this?
Is there any way to install crystal report for Visual studio without installing visual studio

I found a solution. we have to install some nuget packages.First install [Install-Package CrystalReports.Engine -Version 13.0.3500] and install related dependencies.
Follow the following link
https://www.nuget.org/packages/CrystalReports.Engine/
Then you have to install CR Runtime
Change the the bitness of project to 64

SSIS and Visual Sudio 2019 Cannot Load Project

First of all, this issue has nothing to do with the installation of SSDT. I have the lastest version installed, at the time of writting this.
My issue is that the SSIS package was written some time ago using, I think either VS2005 or VS2008 as I was using Windows 7 with the lastest SSDT package fro the time, and I now need to open it up to view the workings.
I am now using VS2019 on Windows 10, again with the latest SSDT package, and studio refuses to open the project.

I have found the answer and it had nothing to do with the SSDT installed.
After finding this article.
visual-studio-2019-open-solution-file-incompatible
It explains the need to make sure that the SSIS Extension is enables. In my case it needed to be installed.
This occurred because I had installed various versions of SSDT which caused Visual Studio to need me to reinstall.

This version of Visual Studio is unable to open the following projects SSIS VS 2019

I have isntalled VS2019 and installed SSDT from installer but I still get error when trying to open SSIS projects:
This version of Visual Studio is unable to open the following projects. The project types may not be installed or this version of Visual Studio may not support them.
I have also installed Analysis services from nuget and EF6.
In the installer , I can see SSDT is marked as installed.
Restarted both VS and pc.
What can be wrong?
Did you install the additional Visual Studio Extensions?

Client cannot display report

I developed a desktop application with Visual Studio 2010 and Crystal Reports 13_0_4. I generated the setup for my application, and the application runs but the crystal report is not working.
When I install Crystal Reports manually, I get an error stating
You must install Visual Studio before installing Crystal Reports
I don't want to install Visual Studio for the client. Otherwise they can open the framework and do the coding for my application. How can I otherwise allow them to view the report?
You don't have to install manually the crystal report. Just add it like a prerequisite in your setup project, then it will download automatically.

How to install Crystal Reports without Visual Studio?

I am new to Crystal report and I am trying to install it so I can use it.
Is there any way to install Crystal Reports without having Visual Studio?
Yes. You may install the stand-alone version. But You will not able to use it since it uses Visual Studio Interface. You can install the Crystal Reports Viewer only.
Note 1: To integrate "SAP Crystal Reports, developer version for Microsoft Visual Studio" into VS 2010 or 2012 (SP 7 and higher) or VS 2013 (SP 9 or higher) or VS 2015 RC (SP14) - VS 2015 (fully - SP 15), you must run the Install Executable. Running the MSI will not fully integrate Crystal Reports into VS. MSI files by definition are for runtime distribution only.
By default Windows 10 does not install the 3.5 framework, CR for VS still needs it. Select it by "Turn Windows feature on or off" and choose both options.
Note 2: SAP Crystal Reports, Developer Version for Visual Studio .NET does NOT support Express Editions of any version of Visual Studio .NET. VS.
You can download all versions from: http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-7824
If you want to develop a new crystal report, then you can use Developer Edition from the below link. In developer edition .exe, you require Visual Studio.
And, if you want to run crystal report on release mode without installing visual studio for the client, then you can use .msi file of crystal report runtime from this site. This file does not require an install of Visual Studio.
You can download this from following link.

I have downloaded and installed Crystal Report "CRforVS_13_0_4.exe" for Visual Studio 2010, professional edition. But it not seems to work with visual Studio. Whenever i try to open Tool Box window, OR try to add Crystal Report (.rpt) in to the project It gives me following error.
[Window Title]
Microsoft Visual Studio 2010
[Main Instruction]
Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 has stopped working
[Content]
A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Please close the program.
[Close the program] [Debug the program]
I checked that as soon as "Crystal Reports Tool Package" loads in to the Tool Box this error pop out. I also monitored the files while installation and found that it seems that its 64 bit version. But i am haveing 32 bit win7 OS. But i couldn't find out 32 bit version.
I installed "CRforVS_redist_install_32bit_13_0_3.zip" but, it not support designer. and i got .mhtml extension while adding crystal report(.rpt)
