Hi,
I am having a problem printing to PDF from ASP.NET web site, but only after compilation and publishing the web site to remote server.
If a web site is not compiled, everything is working fine, but after compilation a get following error
Server Error in '/' Application.

The file '/Print.aspx' has not been pre-compiled, and cannot be requested.

Version Information: Microsoft .NET Framework Version:2.0.50727.3607; ASP.NET Version:2.0.50727.3614

Web site is compiled and published in WS 2008 using "Build/Publish web site" tool, and everything else is working as it suppose to work, only this is where I got the exception.

The code I am using to generate PDF to download stream is from exaple application from FastReport
        // No temp files
        FastReport.Utils.Config.WebMode = true;

        // Set PDF export props
        FastReport.Export.Pdf.PDFExport pdfExport = new FastReport.Export.Pdf.PDFExport();
        pdfExport.ShowProgress = false;
        pdfExport.Subject = "Subject";
        pdfExport.Title = "xxxxxxx";
        pdfExport.Compressed = true;
        pdfExport.AllowPrint = true;
        pdfExport.EmbeddingFonts = true;

        // Load our report
        FastReport.Report report = new FastReport.Report();

        FastReport.EnvironmentSettings evn = new FastReport.EnvironmentSettings();
        evn.DatabaseLogin += new FastReport.DatabaseLoginEventHandler(evn_DatabaseLogin);

        report.Load(Request.PhysicalApplicationPath + "Templates\\Invoice\\"+Request.QueryString["report"]+".frx");
        report.SetParameterValue("ID", 123));
        
        report.Prepare();

        // Export report to PDF stream
        MemoryStream strm = new MemoryStream();
        report.Export(pdfExport, strm);
        report.Dispose();
        pdfExport.Dispose();

        // Stream the PDF back to the client as an attachment
        Response.ClearContent();
        Response.ClearHeaders();
        Response.Buffer = true;
        Response.ContentType = "Application/PDF";
        Response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment;filename=some_filename.pdf");

        strm.Position = 0;
        strm.WriteTo(Response.OutputStream);
        strm.Dispose();

        Response.End();

All dependent files are in Bin directory of my application, but I just cant make it work.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

    I am sorry, this is nothing to do with FastReport.

    It was some strange issue with asp.net and web site compilation.

    I deleted all files from web server, published and uploaded the entire site again, and it is working now.

    It was just coincidence that my web site "stucked" with a page that includes FastReport.

    My mistake, sorry! >

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
