Moving Crystal DLL’s from GAC to BIN

Written by

To ease deployment the following DLL’s have been moved as a BIN reference rather than GAC:

  • CRVsPackageLib
  • CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine
  • CrystalDecisions.Enterprise.Framework
  • CrystalDecisions.Enterprise.InfoStore
  • CrystalDecisions.Enterprise.PluginManager
  • CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.ClientDoc
  • CrystalDecisions.ReportSource
  • CrystalDecisions.Shared
  • CrystalDecisions.Web

All are version 10.2.3600. These all stand to be removed completely if Reporting Services kicks off.

To remove the original references from the GAC involved deleting the folders from C:\Windows\Assembly\ these where located across both GAC_MSIL and GAC folders.

These could only be deleted from the command line and weren’t even visable from windows explorer.

VS2005 and IIS where shut down to achieve this.
