Cannot install Crystal report 2008

Dear All,
I am trying to instal CR_2008_SP01_for_B1 on my PC. I got a screen said "please wait while the installer finishes determining your disk space requirements" forever. If I hit cancel, it will cancel the installation. So it looks like the installation process is not frozen. It didn't give me any error message as well. I have windows XP and SQL2008. I have SAP8.8 PL16. I have around 10G free space on C drive. That is the only local hard drive I have. Can anybody let me know how to install Crystal? Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Yuka

Hi Yuka.........
If you are not getting any errors while installation and taking time then I would suggest you let it run else if you cancel in between then it may corrupt dll files which are being created while installation. Because while installation a setup checks all those prerequisites which are required so it generally takes time.
Regards,
Rahul

  • Getting an error trying to install Crystal Reports 2008 on a 64 bit Windows

    reformatted my computer and now I'm trying to install Crystal Reports 2008 on 64 bit windows 7 box.  When the "Registering modules" portion of the install comes up, I get a message that a dll has failed to register.  I saw something about not having the Microsoft Visual c++ 2005 redistributable pack (x86) installed but that was not it either.
    The cd label say Crystal Reports to Crystal Reports 2008 Upgrade, but it does not seem like I have to have the older version of Crystal insatlled.
    Any ideas how to fix this ?

    Hello together,
    i've had the same problem. Tried to install CR SP 2 "cr2008win_sp2.exe" onto an existing CR 2008 SP1 installation, and got the above error. After extracting the cr2008win_sp2.exe to an folder using Winzip (or just start Installation, the source would be extracted to "c:\temp" ), navigate to the subfolder "\package" and execute the CrystalReports.msp (in my case: c:\temp\package\CrystalReports.msp). This start's the Installation of SP 2. If you get an version mismatch, use parameter SKIP_PATCH_VERSION_CHECK=1 by typing command in an dos prompt "c:\temp\package\CrystalReports.msp SKIP_PATCH_VERSION_CHECK=1" but remember, you need to have an SP1 installed (somebody said, SP's are incremental).
    Reboot and apply then the  CR 2008 SP2 FixPack 7 "cr2008fp27.exe". Use this Link to Download CR and Xcelsius Stuff:
    [https://service.sap.com/sap/bc/bsp/spn/bobj_download/main.htm]
    I would suggest you not to use IE for downloading, use an alternative browser. I got only bad downloads (IE8 on Win7).
    This is the way i did and this works pretty good.
    Good Luck

    Hi,
    Have you checked installing Crystal report 2008 on different system?
    Also make sure that the parameter datatype is correct for the database field datatype.
    Please check the required .Net framework is installed and check the crystal report 2008 is updated.
    Let me know if this works

  • Unable to install Crystal Reports 2008 SP07

    Hi, everyone
    Currently using
    Crystal Reports 2008 Product: 12.4.0.966
    I have the problem about installation of Crystal Reports 2008 Service Pack.
    I could upgrade it to SP4. However, I'm not able to install Crystal Reports 2008 Service Pack 07 update due to the error message product version is too old.
    Does someone have any similar experience?
    Regrards,
    Kano

    Hello Takumo,
    You can upgrade to SP7 only if you have SP5 or SP6 install. This is why you are getting error when upgrading from SP4 to SP7.
    So, you have to follow this path CR2008 SP4 -> SP5 or SP6 -> SP7
    Else you can also install full build as suggested by Abhilash.

  • Cannot install Crystal Reports Server 2008 and Client Tools on same machine

    I am having trouble setting up Crystal Reports Server 2008 with Client Tools on a new Windows 2003 SP 2 machine. The Server 2008 package installs OK (built-in MySQL server, built-in Tomcat 5.5 server). Reports run okay. But my customer wants to run reports that use Salesforce as a data source, so I tried to install Crystal Reports Server 2008 Client Tools (needed  for Salesforce support, apparently). I receive this error:
    'Business Objects product detected: cannot continue with install'. Installation of Client Tools immediately terminates.
    Oddly enough, when I uninstalled Server 2008, the Client Tools installed successfully. Then I tried installing Server 2008, and I got the same error message as with Server 2008. What the heck?
    Any ideas on how I can get Server 2008 and Server 2008 Client Tools to live in harmony on the same machine? We were able to do this with a (otherwise overloaded) Win2K3 server before.
    Thank you in advance for any help.

    Typically the client tools are installed with enterprise by default. If not then you would want to use add/remove in control panel and select them. The installer thinks you are trying to install enterprise on top of itself and thus the error.

  • Error while trying to install Crystal Reports 2008 SP3

    Has anyone else come across this error before when running the SP3 update installer;
    Crystal Reports 2008 SP3 Update is not allowed to install because a patch with a higher version was detected.
    The installation then terminates.  There has been nothing installed on this server to do with Crystal, aside from CR2008, SP1 and then the attempt at SP3.
    ANY help appreciated
    Edited by: Ludek Uher on Aug 18, 2010 2:07 PM

    Priyanka,
    I'm already extremely annoyed that a new server build requires installation of CR2008, then SP1 before SP3 will even allow installation.  Adding SP2 into the mix just makes it seem like none of the developers tested anything (which I'm seeing from just about every software company I deal with these days).
    Besides, the 'SAP Business Objects Support Software Downloads' page no longer lists SP1 or SP2 as available downloads, so I'm going to have to try Don's solution first.
    Regards.

  • Error 1305 while installing Crystal Reports 2008, JavaSDK

    While installing Crystal Reports from the original media on a new Lenovo Thinkpad running Windows XP Pro SP3 I get the following error while installing:
    Error 1305: Error reading from File: c:\program files\Business Objects\javasdk\jre\audio\soundbank.gm. Verify that the file exists and that you can access it.
    I have the option to retry or cancel, obviously cancel exits the installer. Retry just fails again. I have tried to access the file (which does exist) and I cannot because it is in use. I used Sysinternals process explorer to find out what has the file in use and it is msiexec.exe which is the Microsoft Installer service which is running in order to install CR2008.
    I have tried restarting, setting permissions on the file and folder, uninstalling and reinstalling Java VM from Sun. I even tried killing msiexec (which killed the install). I even tried taking out all reference to java in a custom install.
    I am at a loss on what to do next. Any help would be appreciated.

  • Probleming Installing Crystal Reports 2008 Service Pack 1 to Vista 64bit OS

    Hi There,
    Whenever I attempt to install SP1 to Crystal Reports 2008 I am unable to get past the disk space check.  It just continues to display the message below.
    "please wait while the installer finishes determining your disk space". 
    I found this to be an issue on the 64bit OS only because I can install to Vista 32bit no problem. 
    Please help.
    Thanks
    Mark

    Hi Mark,
    Try with this:
    Run a command prompt as administrator. From the start menu, select "All Programs", then "Accessories" and right-click on the "Command Prompt" shortcut and choose "Run As Administrator". From here you can use the following command to disable Data Execution Prevention (DEP) with the following command:
    bcdedit.exe /set nx AlwaysOff
    Keeping your command prompt open, run your setup or other process being stopped by DEP. Then, to turn it back on again, do the same and run the following:
    bcdedit.exe /set nx AlwaysOn
    Now try to install Crystal reports.

  • Cannot install Crystal Reports 8.5 Pro - no Registration code

    We want to re-install Crystal Reports Profession 8.5 because the old PC it was installed has been replaced. We have the CD and the keycode but cannot complete the process.The installation asks for the keycode and then all our details which we enter including a valid email but it seems to attempt to go a incorrect web address (displays http://www.sap.com/solutions/sapbusinessobjects/index.epx) and we get no registration code.
    Searching and trawling about the SAP forums here didn't seem to help. Can anyone point us to the correct place to get a valid registration code.

    Hello,
    Is the old PC still available? If so you can get if from there. You could try contact Customer Services but I doubt they would be able to get you a new registration number. CR 8.5 is close to 10 years old and with the name changes none of those old servers are running now.... Try calling the number in the help about box.
    Other than that you'll just have to put up with the registration nag screen.
    Thank you
