  [activereports_archive]I have a rather simple WPF tool ( .NET 4.0 ), that simply has 2 buttons.
  
  One button to choose a input data file and the other one to render a PageReport ( CPL ) based on the chosen input data file and a rdlx file that is encolsed in the tools resources. The report is exported as PDF file.
  
  I am using ActiveReports 8.1.0.1069
  
  Everything works fine on my local Win7 machine.
  
  But I have to “publish” the tool on a network drive for others to use. If someone tries to execute the tool from the network drive they get the following error message:

  “This method explicitly uses CAS policy, which has been obsoleted by the .NET Framework.
  
  In order to enable CAS policy for compatibility reasons, please use the NetFx40_LegacySecurityPolicy configuration switch.
  
  Please see http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=155570 for more information.”

  I have seen a hint to this problem in the “Touble Shooting” section of AR8 documentation, but the suggested solution to add the following to app.config

  <configuration>
  
  <runtime>
  
  <NetFx40_LegacySecurityPolicy enabled=“true”/>
  
  </runtime>
  
  </configuration>

  did not solve the problem. It gets even worse! If I place an app.config as shown above next to my tool on the network drive, the executable will crash on startup!

  Any suggestions on how to solve the problem?[/activereports_archive]

  [activereports_archive]Hi

  I have the same problem. I am using Active Report 8.0.133.0, the provided link is for active reports 9.

  I do not want to user active reports 9, is there is any Activereport 8 update to fix this issue.

  Also in My Licenses page, there is no update available to download, although I have ActiveReports 8 Professional Edition license.

  thanks[/activereports_archive]

  Hi,

  Was this issue fixed in some (which) Active Reports builds?
  
  I am using 9.2.3032.0 version and I am having the same problem i.e. when I use activeReport.EnableScriptDebugging = true then on activeReport.Run() I get the very same “This method explicitly uses CAS policy, which has been obsoleted by the .NET Framework” exception.

  Thank you.
