Hello

I'm going crazy please help me :)

I have a small program that generates a report extracting data from a 2012 sql server, I have to modify the sending of the mails, so I took the source and made the changes.

The problem is that I don't know exactly which version of VS it was compiled with (back in 2015) I'm using VS 2022 I compile the program but when I run it I get this error: 

30/09/22 23.29.30 Microsoft.Reporting.WinForms.LocalProcessingException: An error occurred during local report processing. ---> Microsoft.Reporting.DefinitionInvalidException: The definition of the report 'C:\Acqualogica\MailAutomatiche\Consumi.rdlc' is invalid. ---> Microsoft.ReportingServices.ReportProcessing.ReportProcessingException: The report definition is not valid.  Details: The report definition has an invalid target namespace 'http://schemas.microsoft.com/sqlserver/reporting/2010/01/reportdefinition' which cannot be upgraded.

    Hello @Pietro Pesce ,

    Welcome to Microsoft Q&A forum.

    Please check this similar thread: Report error on VS 2017 and try suggestions like below:

    1. Change http://schemas.microsoft.com/sqlserver/reporting/2010/01/reportdefinition to http://schemas.microsoft.com/sqlserver/reporting/2008/01/reportdefinition
    2. Remove <ReportSections>, <ReportSection> tags.
    3. Remove <ReportParametersLayout> tag and all its child tags.

    Best Regards,
    Tianyu
