Error: Internet Explorer cannot download

[mickyd]

When I open go to http://servername/CrystalReportsEval/, then click on the report, it opens fine.

But, when I go to http://websitename/reports, then click on the report, it tries to download the file rather than running it inside the browser.

Also, if I go to http://websitename/reports/reportname, I get the following error:

Internet Explorer cannot download ...reportname from websitename.
Internet Explorer was not able to open this Internet site. The requested site is either unavailable or cannot be found. Please try again later.

Any ideas as to what the problem could be?

I realize that the original post is very old so this question may have been answered...

However, I am working on an ASP page that needs to export data. I am repeatedly running into the following error message: &quot;Internet Explorer Cannot Download <filename>&quot;. &quot;Internet Explorer was not able to open this internet site. The requested site is either unavailable or cannot be found&quot;.

First of all, this site is company-owned and I have complete access rights. In addition, I am simply writing text data to a file on the users hard drive.

I have checked Internet Explorer security and download options but have found nothing that will allow me to download a file.

Any help would be appreciated
