Crystal reports in VS2012 ASP.NET MVC 4

Question

Hello, I am new to web development, but have landed a lucky project where in addition to database management, I am supposed to maintain a web app that was built by an outside developer in ASP.NET MVC 4.. so far, so good. He included a few basic crystal reports, and I am trying to add my own new reports to the project. I can get them to load just fine on my development machine, but when I publish to test server the reports no longer load. The reports draw from stored procedure, I have made sure all login info is right and permissions are granted to the read only account, but still no go. I am missing something simple, any thoughts would be very helpful. thanks.

Hello, By default when publishing Crystal Report .rpt design files are not published or move. After publication copy your Report designer files on your deploy version. Hope solve your problem.
