Crystal Reports Exception: The maximum report processing jobs limit configured by your system administrator has been reached

Question

I'm facing a very buggy issue, in ASP.NET application after viewing the same report many times simultaneously I got this exception:

The maximum report processing jobs limit configured by your system administrator has been reached.

Wait I know there are tons of solutions out there but all of them are not working with me.

1. I put ReportDocument.Close(); ReportDocument.Dispose(); in CrystalReportViewer_Unload event, and still throw the exception.

   Private Sub CrystalReportViewer1_Unload(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles CrystalReportViewer1.Unload reportFile.Close() reportFile.Dispose() GC.Collect() End Sub

2. I edit the PrintJobLimit registry in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\SAP BusinessObjects\Crystal Reports for .NET Framework 4.0\Report Application Server\InprocServer and HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\SAP BusinessObjects\Crystal Reports for .NET Framework 4.0\Report Application Server\Server to -1 even to 9999, and still throw the exception.

Here is the code snippet where I call my report:

 Table_Infos = New TableLogOnInfos()
                Table_Info = New TableLogOnInfo()
                Con_Info = New ConnectionInfo()

                With Con_Info
                    .ServerName = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings("server_name")
                    .DatabaseName = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings("DB")
                    .UserID = user_name
                    .Password = pass_word
                    .Type = ConnectionInfoType.SQL
                    .IntegratedSecurity = False
                End With

                Table_Info.ConnectionInfo = Con_Info

                If Session("recpt_lang") = "Arabic" Then
                    reportFile.Load(Server.MapPath("/Reports/") & "collectrecpt_new_ar.rpt")
                ElseIf Session("recpt_lang") = "English" Then
                    reportFile.Load(Server.MapPath("/Reports/") & "collectrecpt_new.rpt")
                End If

                For Each mytable In reportFile.Database.Tables

                    mytable.ApplyLogOnInfo(Table_Info)

                Next

                CrystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = reportFile
                CrystalReportViewer1.SelectionFormula = Session("SelectionForumla")
                CrystalReportViewer1 = Nothing

Answer 1

You have to Dispose your report instance after all. If you Dispose the report after showing it, you will never see the error "The maximum report processing jobs limit configured by your system administrator has been reached" again.

  Dim report1 As rptBill = clsBill.GetReport(billNumber)

  rpt.Print()

  'Cleanup the report after that!
  rpt.Close()
  rpt.Dispose()
