Hello,

what are the minimal access rights i need for an *.mrt report template file and the containing folder for compiling, rendering and showing a report? I need to know this for the use of reports on our ASP hosting server sytem.

Thanks and regards

Hello, Thorsten .

You need rights only to read mrt-files.
The full trust environment is needed to compile report.

Thank you.

Hello Aleksey,

i made a simple test. I changed the attribute write protected of a full functional report to true.

After that i get

Code: Select all

System.UnauthorizedAccessException

What do i have to do to open, compile and show a report with write protection? You said that i only need read right.

Kind regards

Ok, we solved the problem. In our internal framework we loaded the report file with

Code: Select all

Stream stream = File.Open(fileName, FileMode.Open);

This called in .NET framework the following

Code: Select all

Stream stream = File.Open(fileName, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.ReadWrite);

which is not good for write protected files .

The solution is simply the use of

Code: Select all

Stream stream = File.Open(fileName, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read);

Thanks for your help and support
