Topic: CR XI installation Posted: 16 Aug 2012 at 3:09am
Hi.
I'm not sure if this is outside the scope of these forums, but I'd like to take a stab anyway.
While installing Crystal Reports Server release XI, I change the installation path to another drive. However, without sufficient space on the C partition, I cannot proceed with the install despite more than sufficient space on the intended partition.
I'd like to know if this is a known issue, as I haven't found any precedent, or if anyone has a workaround for this.

Yes, this is a known issue - the install will use the C driver for "unpacking" its files, that's why you need space on C. One potential work-around would be to change the Temp Environment Variable to point to the other drive. This might work, but I haven't tested it.
Also, you need to be aware that Crystal does a LOT of swapping to disk when it's processing reports. The default place for the temp files this generates is on the C drive, so you'll need space there anyways.
