Samira, you need to create this folder then, most likely.

If you take a look at the source rendered to the browser (View Source), you should see that folder referenced in a javascript tag. You should copy it from the location I included in my post:

C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86\

Or similar. Let me know if you need more help.

For reasons uknown only half from the submit has been displayed, could it be my browser or the site?

You really can’t avoid that, one way or another. You either have to have that directory in that location, or a virtual directory there (VD’s have there own problems). The main reason for the confusion here is that it’s not the server that needs to access that directory, it’s the browser. That directory contains javascript and css among other things. So it’s not looking at your c:\…, it’s looking at http:\\host\aspnet_client\…

I hope this clears things up. The browser MUST be able to read the directory that the script and stylesheet link tags (View Source) are pointing to. If you’re unsure, work out the relative paths, and try to browse there yourself.

I can help with this more.

The reason is that when i run my page the server can’t find the directory “crystalreportviewers12?. When i debug the page i find that it uses a faulty path.
My site-directory is named “CRTest” and instead of looking in “c:\inetpub\wwwroot\aspnet_client\system_web\2_0_50727\crystalreportviewers12\” the server looks in “inetpub\wwwroot\CRTest\aspnet_client\system_web\2_0_50727\crystalreportviewers12″.
A solution would be to include the directory “crystalreportviewers12″ in my website but i would like to avoid that.

No I don’t believe there is. I’ve done a bit of searching about that, but I haven’t been able to find anything suggesting you can. If you find out how, please share. (You could try some Crystal Reports forums)

There may be another solution. Why do you need to change the directory of that?

No, what i am after is a way to set the path to the directory “crystalreportviewers12″ in the web.config file for the website.

You don’t change the path of the web.config. You can have a web.config in every directory.

Config files lower in the directory hierarchy will override ones above it.

So, put a web.config file in the root of your web application. Then, if you need different settings for, say, /admin/, create /admin/web.config.

If I’m not understanding your problem properly, I give me an example and more information and I’ll try to help however I can.
