VMWare-server in 64 bit

Sorry I don't speak German
I set up Arch to play with it and I've been impressed, it's a pretty nice distro. I set up everything that I had working in Debian Sid (even though for Picasa I had to set up a 32 bit chroot environment) however I can't install VMware-server, in comparison it's pretty trivial to set it up in Sid...
Anyway, I've tried to set it up in 32 bit chroot and that didn't work, the install seems successful but it doesn't start. I assume it's not possible to run it in chroot, I'm not sure what are chroot limitation, maybe one cannot install kernel modules?
In 64 bit I had a problem to get all the 32-bit libraries, can anyone who has it install assure me it's not a lost case so I will dedicate more time with it? Do you have some advice?
Thanks!
PS. Oh and what's the deal with 32 bit libraries overwriting 64 bit ones... I had bunch a problems with that, apt-get would have never allowed that...

I've made a mistake, this PKGBUILD is not prepared for Arch64. Maintainer seems not to be using Arch64. Probably he cannot test this package on x86_64 architecture and PKGBUILD needs some more changes to run under x86 arch. It is still possible, but you would have to get some 32bit libraries.
I have found similar topic in ArchWiki: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ins … _on_Arch64
I was using vmware-workstation package from AUR, you may be interested in it. You would have to install lib32-libxtst package from pacman before using it (maybe installing this package makes vmware-server to run under x86_64 architecture...).

  • Licensing number invalid - VMWare Server 2.0.2 on Windows XP

    Hi,
    I installed the vmware 2.0.2 server and created a vm and got the no-license message. Then tried to enter the license for windows from the download page and vmware server said that the license number is invalid. Searched the forum and deinlstalled the vmware server and reinstalled it. During install it did not ask for a key. After installation tried to enter the key and it did not accet it. Please help.
    Best regards

    Here seem to be 2 solutions.
    1. Uninstall the software together with serial key (the uninstall must ask about it).Then reinstall.
    2.  Find the registry key
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\VMware, Inc.\VMware Server
    for 64 bit or
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\VMware, Inc.\VMware Server
    for 32-bit. Delete the value License.vs.1.0-00 .
    Then add to the key Dormant\License.gsx.3.0-00 the following values:
    "Serial"="<new_serial>"
    "Name"="<Name>"
    "CompanyName"="<Company_name>"
    "LastModified"="2008-12-01 @ 16:00:00 UTC"
    and restart VMWare Host Agent service.

  • Cannot uninstall VMware Server 1.0. from Windows 7

    [pictures attached]
    I tried to install VMware Server 1.0.10, but got this message:
    Windows requires a digitally signed driver
    A recently installed program tried to install an unsigned driver.
    This version of Windows requires all drivers to have a valid digital signature.
    The driver is unavailable and the program that uses this driver might not work correctly.
    Uninstall the program or device that uses this driver and check the

    PROBLEM: cannot uninstall VMware Server
    QUESTION: how can I manually uninstall VMware Server from my Windows 7?
    Thanks in advance.

    If you're being flooded with this (literally every second) in /var/log/messages I would recommend applying patch 5679560 (if you have access to metalink):
    Oct 16 11:05:06 vmerin su(pam_unix)[8725]: session closed for user oracle
    Oct 16 11:05:06 vmerin su(pam_unix)[8768]: session opened for user oracle by (uid=0)
    This will reduce the load significantly.

  • Screen resolution for OEL 5 on VMware Server 1.0.3

    Hi
    I have installed Oracle Enterprise Linux 5 in a VMware Server 1.0.3 virtual machine.
    The problem is that I can only run the virtual machine in 800x600 or 640x480.
    Anyone who has tried this and made it work?
    I have VMWare Tools installed and I have run the vmware-tools-config, or what its called.
    When choosing 1024x768 as the screen resolution. Linux is unable to start the Xserver. Sorry, but I don't have the error message when writing this.
    The Virtual Machine i setup as a Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4.0 server.
    Regards

    Hi
    This is how the system works right now.
    I also tried to add manually the 1024x768 resolution with the Mode option. but this didn't work.
    Thx in advance.

  • Automatically Shutdown Database During VMware Server 'Shut Down Guest'

    I have 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.4.0 running on Windows Server 2003 R2 under VMware Server version 2.0.0.
    I 'Power On' the VM and the OS/database start normally. I don't even open the guest OS console from VMware. I use TOAD and SQLPlus from the host machine to access my database.
    I'm trying to set up the database to do a clean shutdown when I use the VMware console to 'Shut Down Guest'.
    I've used the Group Policy Object Editor (gpedit.msc) to create a shutdown script under 'Local Computer Policy/Computer Configuration/Windows Settings/Scripts (Startup/Shutdown)/Shutdown'.
    The shutdown script is called Shutdown.bat and contains:
    rem adding the first two lines didn't affect anything, so I REMed them
    rem set ORACLE_SID=mysid
    rem set ORACLE_HOME=c:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1
    C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\bin\oradim -shutdown -sid mysid -shutmode immediate -log C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\database\oradim.log
    exit
    I get this in the oradim.log:
    Wed Apr 15 13:16:50 2009
    C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\bin\oradim -shutdown -sid mysid -shutmode immediate -log C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\database\oradim.log

    nt secondary err code: 2
    nt OS err code: 0
    Note: If I open the guest OS console and execute the Shutdown.bat file as myself (I'm in the administrator and ora_dba groups), it works perfectly ... as does opening SQLPlus and issuing 'shutdown immediate'.
    I'm stuck. Any ideas?
    Thanks.

    We are also having the same issue. We create a shutdown script via the Group Policy editor which works fine if we do a manual shutdown, but if we do a remote shutdown ex: "shutdown /r /f /m <servername /t 120", it does not work, the Database crash.
    As mentionned the script works when we do a manual shutdown but does not work for a remote shutdown. The group policy script contains the following:
    echo Rebooting server START at %DATE% %TIME% >> E:\oracle\product\admin\test\Reboot.log
    net stop <Oracle servicename>
    echo Rebooting server MIDDLE at %DATE% %TIME% >> E:\oracle\product\admin\test\Reboot.log
    net stop <Oracle servicename>
    echo Rebooting server END at %DATE% %TIME% >> E:\oracle\product\admin\test\Reboot.log
    After the reboot we see all the echoed line in the "reboot.log" file but the "net stop" doesn't get executed or failed since the database crash and recovers
    Any ideas/feedback ?
    Thanks

  • Struggling to install Vmware Server :(

  • VMware-server: Any way to get this to work? Kernel issues! SOLVED

    Hi all,
    I am trying to get VMware server installed, but am having a lot of difficulty.
    According to multiple sources of information, I am told I need to install vmware-server-modules first.
    When I try to install, yaourt gives the following error: error: target not found: kernel26>=2.6.32.
    When I try to install vmware-server, yaourt gives the error error: target not found: kernel26>=2.6.29.
    FYI:
    $ uname -r
    3.2.5-1-ARCH
    The Wiki deals with VMware Player and Workstation, but not Server. There is a forum/aur information relating to installing Server which is quite old (mostly 2010, some 2011), however given I am running an up-to-date kernel I seem to be hitting a dead end. Is there anyone who knows how to get this working?
    I have seen:
    https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=101982
    https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=6182
    I have tried VirtualBox in the past but have had issues getting the networking properly configured, so VMware remains my preference. If there are other decent virtualisation options I am willing to listen.
    Your assistance would be much appreciated!

    Thank you for your posts. My own research and your comments has convinced me that VMware Server is not the right way forward nowadays.
    EXSi:
    I have an unused  box (Dell GX620 usff) which seems like it would be suitable to run EXSi and 2-3 VMs, but no more due to RAM limits of 4GB on the mobo. I THINK its 64-bit, but not 100% sure - knowing this is an EXSi requirement for recent versions is somewhat annoying. Also, from what I understand, there is no native Linux control application (vSphere is Windows only, right?), which makes VMware feel entirely like the wrong choice for me. 
    Citrix XenServer:
    This looks promising - does anyone use this?
    VirtualBox:
    I hear your comments ... maybe its time to do some reading on this. Seems like I'll only get it to work if I take the time to do it right. As usual, so no suprises there Given that it will be easier to experiment on my usual system than have to spend time on a new box, I think I'll investigate this first.
    Please feel free to leave further comments on this subject - I'm still interested in your experiences. It will however, be marked as SOLVED, as VMware-server is out.

    Hi
    Don't know if you got this fixed but I just had the same error. A bit of googling found this:
    http://www.vmware.com/community/message … eID=375968
    which then led to max connection errors which was fixed by this:
    http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=34594
    All seems ok now.
    Your clues seems to have no sense for me.
    First link point to a problem with vmware and pam, second to some problems with syslog-ng.
    I don't know how it is relevant to problems with vmware's snapshot.
    Anyone has an idea? As I have the same problem as waldek_a

  • CUCM + VMware better on 64-bit Windows XP or Windows 7?

    HI there.
    I did a cursory search for this and didn't find much. I have a feeling it may have been discussed so apologies if this is a duplicate post.
    I'm prepping for the CCIE lab and I've always ran my CUCM 7x on my 64-bit Windows XP so I can install 16gb ram.
    I recently upgraded a new desktop that has Windows 7 on it.
    I'm wondering if anyone knows whether CUCM on VMware runs any better on XP or 7 as long as RAM and CPU are the same?
    Is there are more efficient way that VMware works?
    I'm currently using VMware Workstation 6.5.0  (I have a feeling someone is going to suggest ESX)
    Finally, to settle an age-old debate amongst my Cisco friends, when running VMware, is it best to choose ONE or TWO processors?
    I've heard many pple say many things without really a satisfactory answer.
    TIA!

    Thanks Chris,
    I agree with you RAM memory is essentially the biggest bottleneck in VMware.
    However, I discussed this with a few folks and one of them said the following:
    "Use 2003 Server Enterprise, 32-bit. It's faster than 64-bit."
    I was surprised by this comment. I think he also said something that "VMware is actually optimized for 32-bit, not 64"
    I'm not sure how true that is. Perhaps it was true 3-4 years ago.
    So this goes back to my other question, which version of VMware is optimized for 64-bit? And, is it necessarily faster to run CUCM on 64-bit computer or 32-bit.
    The RAM question has been resolved. Now it's just an issue of optimizing VMware with the OS.

  • VMWare Server-64bit in Arch64

    There is a 64-bit version of VMWare2 available from vmware's site. Has anyone used this to install vmware server on Arch64?

    Well, I got the tarbal for VMWare2.0 from their website. I followed the guide for installing VMWare in 32-bit Arch with the exception of running the any-to-any patch. I'm running a default kernel and everything worked as is.
    EDIT: Changed website link to point directly at download page. Click on Download Now under VMWare Server 2.0 and it will take you to a page where you can register for your free serial and then get the download.

  • Vmware server on Arch64

    Was wondering if it is possible to install vmware server on an arch64 install.  The vmware install the wiki mentions to create a 32 bit environment, but after looking at the vmware server release notes, it indicates it has 64bit support.  I tried to install vmware server using the normal wiki install http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Installing_VMware and I get the following errors.  It seems to install perfectly untill I try to enter the license key.  Anyway, here's the error I get when trying to start vmware.

    Any ideas?  I'm a newbie so be gentle.

    Here's someinfo I pulled off the vmware manual on their website.  Although I could be wrong, this looks like vmware supports 64 bit linux host systems.

  • How to Install Coldfusion 8 64-bit on Small Business Server 2008 64-bit

    How to Install Coldfusion 8 64-bit on Small Business Server 2008 64-bit
    I ran Coldfusion 8 on SBS 2003 Premium for 6 months with no problems.  When we finally decided to cut over to SBS 2008, that’s when everything went to hell.  I tried for weeks to get Coldfusion 8 to install properly on the new SBS 2008 64-bit box.  During the course which, I found bits and pieces of information for Vista 64-bit and Windows Server 2008 64-bit installations.  There are some distinct differences, however, with SBS 2008 since it runs core Web applications like OWA, RWW and Companyweb.  After countless unsuccessful attempts, one of which completed corrupted the box, I found the solution.
    I have attempted in this white paper to detail the steps to assist others who may be in a similar situation.  I don’t make any warranty for the information, but so long as you follow the steps carefully you should be fine.  BTW, for those of you who say Adobe offers free technical support for licensed users, that’s not entirely true.  Like I said, I purchased CF8 and originally installed it on an SBS 2003 Premium box.  After we cut over to SBS 2008 and encountered problems, Adobe wouldn’t provide any technical support without charging.  Moreover, based on my initial conversations with Adobe’s technical team, no one seemed to know much about running 64-bit on SBS.
    From my understanding, only two versions of Coldfusion 8 can be installed in 64-bit: Enterprise and Developer.  The “normal” install (which I paid a grand for) can only be deployed in 32-bit mode – gee, THANKS Adobe!  By the way, in Developer mode only two distinct IPs can access the site in addition to the localhost.  Any additional IPs will result in a CFML error message stating that the maximum number of IPs have been exceeded.  At any rate, take your time and follow the steps to achieve a successful installation. 
    PRE-INSTALLATION TASKS
    Back Up SBS
    It’s always a good practice to backup your server before deploying any kind of major system changes.  Although this step is optional, I recommend it in case you need to restore your server for any reason.  Bear in mind, if your system ever gets totally corrupted, you cannot restore back from the twice daily incremental backup images alone.  You will need a full backup with system recovery information to restore.  Here are the basic steps:
    Click: Start > Programs > Administrative Tools.  Right-click “Windows Server Backup” and choose “Run as administrator”.
    Click “Backup Once” under Actions in the right-hand pane.
    Choose the “Different Options” radio button under Backup Options.
    Choose the “Custom” radio button.  What we’re primarily interested in here is backing up the OS – not your data partitions or attached drives.
    Select the “SYSTEM (C)” checkbox, uncheck any others.  Also, ensure that the “Enable system recovery” checkbox is selected before continuing on.
    Under ‘Specify Destination Type’, I usually select the “Local drives” radio button and point it to a Terrabyte USB drive I use for backups.  You can point this to a tape drive, or select the “Remote shared folder” radio button if you map to a UNC path to store your backup images.  Just remember, make sure that whatever path you select can readily be accessed in the event of an emergency.  Also, make sure the “Verify after writing (recommended)” checkbox is selected.
    Under ‘Specified Advanced Option’, I usually select the “VSS full backup” radio button instead of the default since I don’t use a 3rd party backup product.  If like me you rely solely on SBS for your backups, choose the full backup option.
    Confirm everything and click “Backup”.  This process may take several hours depending on the size of your system.
    Verify ISAPI Filters:
    In IIS Manager, double-click the server instance in the left-hand pane.
    In the center pane under IIS, double click the “Modules” icon to verify that the ISAPI native modules are already installed for IIS.  If it’s set up correctly you should see two entries:
    IsapiFilterModule              %windir%\System32\inetsrv\filter.dll
    IsapiModule                        %windir%\System32\inetsrv\isapi.dll
    If either of these modules are missing, you will need to re-install these (google for a solution).
    Set Up Development Environment
    Create a directory for your CFML files outside of the default Windows location (e.g., default is usually C:\inetpub\wwwroot\).  For the purpose of our install, I created a directory on a separate disk called: D:\DEV.
    Copy and paste your CFML files and directories into the new DEV root Web directory.  This will eventually be the directory where the Coldfusion installer places the CFIDE and CFDOCS folders. 
    Open IIS Manager and double-click the server instance in the left hand pane.  Expand the “Sites” folder.  Right-click the Sites folder and select “Add Web Site”.
    Enter a name in the “Site Name” box (e.g., “test-site”).  You will notice that the system will automatically create a corresponding Application Pool with the same name.  NOTE: this is important to prevent conflicts between the DefaultAppPool (needed for SBS Web apps like OWA, RWW, etc.) and the application pool needed for Coldfusion to function properly in SBS 2008.
    Point the “Physical Path” to the directory you created in step #1 above (e.g., “D:\DEV”).
    Don’t worry about testing the connection.  If you click “Test Settings” you may receive a warning that IIS cannot verify access to path (D:\DEV).  Don’t worry about this for the time being.
    Under “Host name”, enter a DNS path to your site (e.g., “dev.test-site.com”).  Click “OK”.
    Configure Application Pools for Installation
    In IIS Manager, double-click the server instance in the left-hand pane.  Click on “Application Pools” to display the list of server application pools in the center pane.
    In the “Actions” pane on the right-hand side, click “Set Application Pool Defaults”.
    Change “Enable 32-Bit Applications” - the second item from the top – from “False” to “True”, and then click “OK”.  NOTE: if you skip this step, Coldfusion will not properly create the required mappings during the install. We will change this setting back after the installation completes – more on this later.
    Modify the application.host.config File for 64-Bitness
    Click: Start > Programs > Accessories.  Right-click “Notepad” and choose “Run as administrator”.
    Open the config file from within Notepad – default location: C:\Windows\System32\inetsrv\config\applicationHost.config
    Do a search and change this one line from:
    <add name="PasswordExpiryModule" image="C:\Windows\system32\RpcProxy\RpcProxy.dll" />
    To this:
    <add name="PasswordExpiryModule" image="C:\Windows\system32\RpcProxy\RpcProxy.dll" preCondition="bitness64" />
    Restart the IIS Admin service.
    Set HTTP Compression
    According to some threads I read, the http compression module can cause errors if you don’t disable it globally. To remedy this, perform the following:
    Click: Start > Programs > Accessories.  Right-click “Command Prompt” and choose “Run as administrator”.
    At the command prompt, change directory to intetsrv by typing: cd inetsrv
    Run the following command:
    C:\Windows\system32\inetsrv>appcmd.exe set config -section:system.webServer/httpCompression /-[name='xpress']
    This will turn off HTTP compression for all sites in IIS.
    In IIS Manager, double-click the server instance in the left-hand pane.  Double-click the “Compression” icon in the IIS section of the center pane.
    Uncheck all of the boxes, then click the “Apply” button under Actions in the right-hand pane.
    Recheck all of the boxes, then click the “Apply” button under Actions in the right-hand pane.
    Restart the IIS Admin service.  This should enable compression and coldfusion to work at the same time.
    NOTE: if for some reason you need to reverse this, run the following command from the command prompt:
    C:\Windows\system32\inetsrv\appcmd.exe set config -section:system.webServer/httpCompression /+[name='xpress',doStaticCompression='false',dll='%windir%\system32\inetsrv\suscomp.dll']
    INSTALLATION TASKS
    Download the 64-bit installation package from Adobe – filename: coldfusion-801-wind64.exe.
    Right-click the file and select “Run as administrator”.
    Accept the terms of the License Agreement.
    If you have an Enterprise license, enter it.  For our purposes, just click the “Developer Edition” checkbox.
    Select “Server configuration” – the default radio button.
    I deselected all subcomponents and can’t guarantee that you’ll arrive at the same results if you select additional items like “.NET Integrated Services”.  It should be fine, particularly if you install documentation.  My preference was to keep the install as plain vanilla as possible.
    Select the directory path for Coldfusion to install into – default is :C\Coldfusion
    THE NEXT TWO STEPS ARE CRITICAL TO YOUR SUCCESS.  Unselect “All IIS Websites” and select the “Configure specific IIS Website or another web server” radio button.  Click “Add”, and then select your test Web site (e.g., “test-site”) under “IIS Web Site”.  Hit “OK”.
    Do NOT use the default directory path for the CF Administrator location (e.g., default path: “C:\inetpub\wwwroot”).  Instead, point the installer to your new DEV root Web directory (e.g., “D:\DEV”).  The bottom line, you want the installer to place the CFIDE directory and files within this folder, alongside your other CFML files and folders.
    Enter an Administrator password.
    Choose to Enable RDS, or not.  I enable this by preference but it is not required.  This allows you to make updates to files using a CFML editor directly vs. having to move/FTP the files over if you’re working remotely.  Opponents to this argue that it’s potentially less secure, but for a lower environment I don’t see this as a major concern.
    Confirm everything to kick off the install.
    If all goes well you should see a message at the end stating that the install was successful.  I recommend you uncheck the box that asks you to open the CF Administrator in the default Web browser after the install.  NOTE: we will open it a different way during the post-installation tasks.  The worst thing that will happen if you forget to uncheck the box is that you might receive an error that the command prompt hung – not a big deal – just close it and move on to the next (final) steps.
    POST-INSTALLATION TASKS
    Verify CF Installation:
    The installation will create a new folder in your program group: Start > Programs > Adobe > Coldfusion 8.  The default “Administrator” link will not work because it points to the wrong path: http://127.0.0.1/CFIDE/administrator/index.cfm. The “127.0.0.1” or “localhost” path as you may recall in IIS, points by default to the “C:\inetpub\wwwroot” directory.  Our CFIDE files, however, are located within: D:\DEV.
    To bring up the CF Administrator logon page, open up a Web browser and replace the “http://127.0.0.1” part of the path with the DNS path name to your CF environment (e.g., http://dev.test-site.com/CFIDE/administrator/index.cfm).
    This should bring up the Coldfusion Administrator Login screen.  Enter in the Administrator password you created during the install to log in and configure your application server.
    Verify that your test-site renders correctly by typing in your test URL into a Web browser (e.g., http://dev.test-site.com).
    Fix Application Pool Defaults to Re-enable SBS Web Applications:
    At this point, Coldfusion Administrator and your test CMFL Web site should be working properly.  The problem is, default SBS Web applications like OWA, RWW and Companyweb will throw errors and fail to start.  Fortunately, this is easily remedied by performing the following steps:
    In IIS Manager, double-click the server instance in the left-hand pane.  Click on “Application Pools” to display the list of server application pools in the center pane.
    In the “Actions” pane on the right-hand side, click “Set Application Pool Defaults”.
    Change “Enable 32-Bit Applications” - the second item from the top – from “True” to “False” this time.  This should re-enable the SBS applications, which would otherwise result in 500 errors (e.g., OWA, RWW, Companyweb, etc.).  There is no need to restart IIS.
    Open a Web browser and test that you can once again connect to OWA, RWW and Companyweb successfully.
    In IIS click to highlight the application pool for your new site (e.g., “test-site”).  In the right-hand pane, click “Advanced Settings”.  Ensure that “Enable 32-Bit Applications” – second item from the top – is set to “True” for this application pool specifically.
    Lastly, jump up and down for joy!  Hopefully now, everything is working.  Best of luck!! ..Paul D (MCP).

    First, it would be a good idea for you to specify what distro of Linux you're using, as not all are supported by Adobe.
    Second, this is probably your problem right here:
    http://askubuntu.com/questions/40416/why-is-lib-libc-so-6-missing
    In a nutshell, CF expects the 32-bit version of libc.so.6 to be in /lib, but it's probably not. You might be able to modify the installer to point to the correct location for that file, or you might be able to create a symlink to the file - but as the above link describes, creating a symlink might have negative consequences.
    As for installing CF 8 64-bit, that's only available with Enterprise, not Standard. If you want CF Standard 64-bit, you need to upgrade to CF 9.

    Hi,
    EDGE/Crystal Reports Server and Enterprise are no native 64bit applications. That does mean that they only run in 32bit mode. But you can install it on a 64bit hardware with a 64bit OS.

  • Error when starting a converted VM (from vmware server edition)

    Hi, i am trying to start a converted VM from VMWARE SERVER. I think i have followed steps to import an VMWARE machine (using resources >> virtual machines images) and it does not return errors when converting VM but then, when trying to start it, it returns

You can check on the console and ensure the console says that Hardware Virtualization is enabled. If not, check in your BIOS that the processor hardware virtualization is enabled. If you don't have an option, your PC may not have the Intel VT-x or AMD-v extensions required to support hardware virtualization.
    You can check to see if your processor supports this extension by using:
    Intel processor:
    # cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep vmxAMD processor:
    # cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep svmIf you see a result, it means the processor has that support. You still need to ensure that it is enabled in the BIOS.

  • Deployment issue on windows server 2008(64 bit)

    Hi all,
    I am using crystal reports 2008 trial version for my web application. Its working fine in development environment but when I deploy application in windows server 2008 64 bit edition it shows following error:"An error has occurred while attempting to load the Crystal Reports runtime. Either the Crystal Reports registry key permissions are insufficient, or the Crystal Reports runtime is not installed correctly. Please install the appropriate Crystal Reports redistributable (CRRedist*.msi) containing the correct version of the Crystal Reports runtime (x86, x64, or Itanium) required."
    Is there any resolution available for this problem except for changing the IIS settings for 32 bit applications?
    Rgds

    Read the following [article|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/10d5fa88-2013-2c10-c9a5-f11963607d4e;jsessionid=(J2EE3417600)ID0244107750DB11172929121510648759End] as it goes over your issue.
    Essentially you will have to set IIS to 32 bit at the least.
