I am using Crystal Reports 13.5 in ASP.NET web forms app. I tried putting the Close() and Dispose() calls in the Page_Unload method, but it did not help.
After 75 reports, I start getting error:
The Maximum report processing jobs limit configured by your system administrator has been reached.
Should I purchase a license for Business Object?
It worked for me by Disposing the report and then calling GC.Collect(). Only Disposing the object wasn't enough in my case. Check this for full details.
EDIT: As per Div's comment, here's the solution from the link:
using System;
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Text;
using CrystalDecisions;
using CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports;
using CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine;
namespace Test.Utilities
{
public class ReportFactory
{
protected static Queue reportQueue = new Queue();
protected static ReportClass CreateReport(Type reportClass)
{
object report = Activator.CreateInstance(reportClass);
reportQueue.Enqueue(report);
return (ReportClass)report;
}
public static ReportClass GetReport(Type reportClass)
{
//75 is my print job limit.
if (reportQueue.Count > 75) ((ReportClass)reportQueue.Dequeue()).Dispose();
return CreateReport(reportClass);
}
}
}
Crystal print engine is designed with 75 as a default print job limit. Once this limit exceeds, above issues start to appear.
This problem quite easily, by altering one value in the registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\SAP BusinessObjects\Crystal Reports for .NET Framework 4.0\Report Application Server\InprocServer
