This error occur on report when i move this report from one machine to another machine. This machine is work perfect on my dev machine when i merge that report on another machine it give above error.
1. Ideally, if your report is working on one development machine and has been unit tested successfully then would recommend you to add the report to version control and fetch the changes on the other development machine through version control (Azure DevOps TFVC or Azure Devops Git).
2. The highlighted issue is with the design of the report and this usually occurs if the design of the report is broken. Although point number 1 should be the approach to be used, but in case if you are looking at an alternative approach then
a. Copy the old design of the report into a new design.
b. Once the contents are copied into the new design, delete the old design and then build your project containing the old report design. You can choose to deploy the .rdl file first and then build the project (assuming there are no issues with the <reportname>.rdl file or the <reportname>.xml files).
Point number 2 is already a solution that has been addressed in the past.
Hope this helps. Happy to answer questions, if any.
