Crystal Report 2008 Deployment - Delphi 2007 application

Hi,
I have got Crystal Report 2008 and developed some reports using them.
I had integrated these reports with a Delphi 2007 application. My application works fine on my box where I have installed CR2008.
Please note - the previous version of Crystal report i used with my application was 5.
I also identified CR_runtime 2008- most of the dll's inside win32_x86 directory and tried to package and created installer of my application. I deployed my application on another box and what I noticed is it gives me OpenEngine error. Copying required dll's doesn't solves problem as I feel there is a need for registry variables too, but not sure of how to go about it.
Is it that I need CR208 , the whole Business objects installed on all deploymnet boxes? If then i need to get licensed copies?
Or is it ok I can download just the CR2008 runtime and install on the deployment boxes.
My application is a standalone application and it just uses to view the reports already created- picking values from the database.
Can I use CR_runtime installer - free trial and deploy on the other boxes and use my application so to view the already created reports.
Please help - I am stuck as how to package my application so users can view the report.
Thanks in Advance,
Shruthi

Hi Jonathan,
Thanks so much... for the reply .
I had downloaded CR runtime - msi file and tried for deployment on my deployment box. But it asks for the product key while installing.
If I had to do this on all of my customer boxes, then can I use the same product key/license code? or the free time trial version - license code that comes with a CR runtime trial setup.
Or should I purchase license for deploying the runtime or msi to all boxes?
Please let me know what should I do......
Thanks in advance,

Hello everyone,I would like to ask if there is any way to use Crystal Reports 2008 with Delphi 2007 (.NET or Win32).I know that the RDC is compatible only with Crystal XI rel. 2, but are there any other ways to use CR2008?Kind Regards,Arhontis

There is no VCL or COM for CR 2008. You will need to move to .NET to use CR 2008 or go back to XI for VCL/RDC.

VCL Crystal 2008 for Delphi 2007 where ? when ? or DIE !!!!!!! delphianos !!!!!!

Hello everyone,
I would like to ask if there is any way to use Crystal Reports 2008 with Delphi 2007.
This VCL11 is compatible with Delphi 7 and crystal XI, but exists any other ways to use CR2008, with Delphi 2007.
Thanks a Lot.

Crystal Reports 7 ASP to Crystal Reports 2008

Hello,
Many many years ago my company wrote applications using ASP VB6, reporting was done using Crystal Reports version 7 and we used the Crystal.CRPE.Application object to generate and display crystal reports in our web applications.
Some of our customers are looking at purchasing the new version of Crystal Reports 2008, my question is, can we still use the current API? Does Crystal Reports 2008 only support .NET applications? We would like to do this without a complete re-write of reporting for these legacy applications, and after searching the net and trying out the trial versions of 2008, I cant seem to get anywhere!!
If anyone could shed some light on this it would be much appreciated.
Kind Regards
Andy Rayner

Hello Andy,
Direct CRPE API calls were retired long ago (with the release of v9 or v10). The Report Designer Component (RDC) was the last Crystal COM based development component that would work with VB6 and classic ASP. The RDC was retired with the release of CR2008.
The suggested migration path from classic ASP and VB6 is to move to the ReportDocument .NET object model. There is also the Crystal Reports for Java (CRJ) component.
There is quite a bit of information on the SAP website that will help you get started with Crystal Reports and Visual Studios .NET. Here are the links:
The [SAP SDN Network|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn]
The [Business Objects page on the SDN Network|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/businessobjects]
The [SDK Developer Library|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc/sdklibrary] - Under .NET SDK look for the "Crystal Reports .NET SDK" Developer Guide link and API Reference link.
[Code Samples|https://boc.sdn.sap.com/codesamples] - Look for the "Crystal Reports .NET SDK" link under .NET SDK's column.
[Additional Code Samples|http://www.businessobjects.com/global/doc/dev_zone/NET_SApps_q405.zip]
If you have specific questions about migrating to .NET please start a new thread for each question. If you need further clarification on the retirement information please reply to this thread.

Crystal Reports 2008 SP3 - "u25azalea.dll" missing

We have installed Crystal Reports 2008 SP3 on our application server.
Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard
64-bit operating system
1. I create a Report and choose a field for barcode
2. Right-click on a that field and choose u201CChange to barcodeu201D
3. I choose "Code39" in the list
4. I change the font of the field to "Barcode EAN13"
5. It shows correctly in Crystal design/preview mode.
6. When I try to run the report from our windows application this message appear: "UFL 'u25azalea.dll' that implements this function is missing"
7. I download the file from http://www.azalea.com/crystal-reports/
8. I copy the file "u25azalea.dll" into the path: C:\Program Files (x86)\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86
8. It still shows the message!
What should I do?

Hello,
No need to select #3 if you are going to change it to #4. Just edit the field and select your barcode font. You only need that file if you use the Code 39 font.
Odd though that it asked for that ufl. Look for it on your local PC and copy it over, could be the one you downloaded is an older version.

JRC Deployment Guide for Crystal Reports 2008

I just downloaded a trial version of Crystal Reports 2008 & was testing out the integration of this component into our Java web based application.
I found the "Crystal Reports XI Release 2 - Java Reporting Component Deployment Guide" PDF file, but I was wondering if there was a more recent version of this guide for Crystal Reports 2008. Maybe I'm a bit confused regarding the versions but this guide currently references JARs in a folder under ...\3.5\java\lib. However, when I looked in the same section of Crystal 2008, I noticed it was \4.0\java\lib & the JARs are different.
Is there a new JRC Depolyment Guide for Crystal Reports 2008?...If not, is there any documentation I can use to map between the 3.5 libraries and the 4.0 libraries?
Thanks

Hi,
There is no separate JRC has been launched for the CR 2008.
But SAP has launched the Crystal Reports 4 Eclipse 2.0 in which CR 2008 has been integraqted with backword compatibility.
To know more please check following link:

Crystal Reports 2008 Web Application Error

Post Author: Jeff Clark
CA Forum: .NET
Hello,
I am using Crystal Reports 2008 and Visual Studio 2005 to create and deploy CR web applications. These applications are installed on a Windows 2003 R2 server with .Net 3.0. I have previously used CR XIR2 for this purpose but upgraded to 2008 because I needed the added functionality in cross-tab reports.
Some of the reports in the web application are pulling from a MySQL database. I am using a JDBC driver (version 5.1.5) to connect Crystal to the database. When I was using CR XIR2, all I needed to do was add the path for the JDBC driver in the CRConfig.xml in "C:\Program Files\Business Objects\common\3.5\java" directory and everything worked great.
The runtime files for CR2008 create a "C:\Program Files\Business Objects\common\4.0" directory, but there is no "java" subfolder and no CRConfig.xml. When I attempt to load one of the MySQL reports I get the following error.
"Error in File %Report Name%.rpt: Failed to load database information. "
Is there a way to load JDBC drivers in the CR2008 runtime files?

I do not believe any java dlls are packaged in the runtimes for .net (same goes for the crdb_xml.dll, which is a java dll). I do not have a cr 2008 deployed server at the moment so I can not verify this.
If you want to use java based db connectivity you will probably need to deploy them with your application.

Deploying Crystal Reports 2008

Hi,
I have both Visual Studio 2008 and Crystal Reports 2008 installed on my development PC.   I'm having issues deploying my applications since I installed Crystal Reports 2008.
Installing on x86 PCs, customers are having to install both:
    CRRedist2008_x86.msi
    CRRuntime_12_0_mlb.msi
on 64-bit PCs, no matter what I try I can not get the reports to generate without an error of missing files or incorrect versions.
I've tried CRRedist2008_x64.msi, (and practically every other possible download of service packs, install MSI files, etc, etc.)
I also can't seem to get any version of merge modules working. I get all kinds of errors like:
"...Error merging 'CRRuntime_12_2.msm': Unable to merge data from the merge module because it conflicts with existing data in the package. MergeModule: table='Directory' row='DesktopFolder' Database: table='Directory' row='DesktopFolder'     C:\Projects\iEnergy\Setup\Setup.vdproj     Setup ..."
It seems having both Crystal Reports 2008 (version 12.x), and Visual Studio 2008 (version 10.x) has really messed things up. There must be a simple way to deploy this on x86 and 64-bit PCs.
Telling customers to install multiple exe/msi files doesn't fly either.
If someone could help clear all this up, I would be really grateful.
Thanks,
Glen.

Hi Glen,
Use the same Patch version of the redist packages as what you have installed on your DEV PC.
You should search here first also, lots of help on distributing which should answer all of your questions also.
First - CRRedist2008_x86.msi is for CR Basic for VS 2008. Not required.
Second - CRRuntime_12_0_mlb.msi is the original release of CR 2008 runtime.
Then your error indicates you are trying to install Service Pack 2.
Check your project, all of the References should be Version 12.x.x.x. The second x indicates the service pack level so this must match with your DEV PC is also using.
Second major change is in your Projects Properties change the CPU to x86 Only. CR 2008 does not have any 64 bit runtime, only 10.2 and 10.5 for VS but it's limited in what it can do in it's API list.
Again search for 64 bit in this forum and you'll find lots of links on how to....
Do not use the MSM's, if you do you also must also include the Windows C++ distribution packages.
Bottom line is search here and you'll find all of your answers.
Thank you
Don

Deploy Crystal Reports 2008, VS2008, Windows Server 2008

Hi All,
I'm looking for guidance on how to deploy a web application developed on VS2008 - I've installed Crystal Reports 2008 (trial version). So in affect crystal reports is integrated in the web app.
So now I want to deploy to our web server to complete the POC.
I've no idea what I need to do to deploy. I installed my trial version of CR2008 on our server and moved the web app onto it as well. Web App running fine under IIS7. I've added the folowing to my web.config
<add assembly="CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine, Version=12.0.2000.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=692fbea5521e1304"/>

I downloaded Crystal Reports 2008 - Service Pack 3 Full Build - that wouldn't install
Downloaded Crystal Reports 2008 - Service Pack 3 - which installed successfully.
I now have ....
Crystal Reports 2008 Runtime SP2
Crystal Reports 2008 SP2
Crystal Reports 2008 SP3 Update
I found another thread similar to the error I am getting which recommended adding Everyone to the Permissions on the C:\Windows\Temp folder. With this set, when I try to navigate to the report on the web app I don't get the error as before - but the application just sits there and spins it wheels and nothing happens. When I take off this permission I am back to the previous error.
Theres nothing revealing in the eventlogs that I can see.
Do you think this could be down to IIS just not knowing what to do with a .rpt file?
In the web.config

Error while dynamically setting logo image in Crystal Report 2008

Hi,
We have embedded Crystal Report 2008 JRC in our web application which is an Enterprise Archive (EAR) deployed on WebSphere Application Server.
The RPT files bundulled in the archive displays a logo which is dynamicalli picked up by the RPT files from a configured location. Due to this the Report generation crashes when travesed to the sub reports/ groups within RPT. We have observed that this problem never occures if the logo is hard coded within the RPT files.
The report crashing causes another big problem, it crashes the Applciation Server too. This is major concern to us and we need a resolution to this problem.
Thanks in advance

Report and Field Explorer dont work in Crystal Reports 2008

Hi
I am using the following versions of Crystal Reports:
Crystal Reports 2008 (Service Pack 1)
CR Developer
Version 12.1.0.892
Product Type: Full
Target environment: .NET 3.5 windows forms and asp.net application
Since a couple of days, i can no longer access the field explorer nor the report exlorer. Anything else seems to be working fine. I first thought these windows were somewhere hidden behind another window but as much as i searched, i didnt succed in finding them :-(. Our product has a valid licence and is registered, by the way.
My question is now, what do i have to do to get my field/report explorer again. Maybe, installing the latest service pack had an influence, but i cannot tell for sure.
Any help is appreciated
Thanks in advance

I'm not sure I understand what you mean by tabbed reporting. Do you mean having multiple reports open at once within the Crystal Reports Designer?
If this is the case, the viewer is designed to only have one report open at a time.

Customizing ActiveX Viewer for Crystal Reports 2008

Here's the scenario.
We have reports designed in Crystal Reports 2008, that are deployed on Business Objects 3.1 Infoview. All reports have Parameters for users to choose. All reports are expected to refresh on open.Some are dynamic some are standard static ones. There is an application developed in JAVA that is rendering these reports using the ActiveX viewer.
The users are not comfortable with the way reports look in JAVA viewer. Hence the choices are either HTML viewer or ActiveX viewer.
The application achieves this by making OpenDoc call to the report and using
sViewer=actx
as one of the parameters. Here's the issue that we run into. When users land on the parameter screen, the parameter screen alone Pops Up in a new window. Once all the parameter values are entered and the users clicks OK, the window vanishes and actual report is rendered in the original window.
If we use HTML viewer by setting
sViewer=html
The report Parameter screen is rendered in the main window without popping up. However we do not wish to use HTML viewer because, some of the reports are linked to other reports with OpenDoc calls. i. e. Parent report calls child report with a OpenDoc call. In the HTML viewer, when you click on the link to child report, it opens in same window despite setting
sWindow=new
in that opendoc call. Thereby losing parent report and no way to navigate back to it. This problem does not happen in ActivX viewer.There it seems to obey the command to open in new window.
Lastly you can recreate all this behavior by setting your viewer preferences in Info View settings.
So, here's my questions.
1. Should I use the .Net viewer instead of ActiveX Viewer ? If so, where can I find Syntax for the same ?
2. Can someone point me to documentation on the ActiveX Viewer ? Specifically making it not to Pop Up the Parameter Screen ?
3. Should the Java application use a different method other than Open Doc to cal the reports ? If so where can I get the details ?
Apologies for the long post. I tried to anticipate most of the questions that may arise in your mind. Thanks in advance for the time invested.

Thank you Adam for the help.
I already have the Open Document document you mentioned. Can't seem to search for the KB article in Marketplace. No results found.
Just to clarify, I do not want to avoid the Parameter screen. Its the fact that it Pops Up in ActiveX viewer is the issue. The only thing I want in ActiveX viewer is to make that screen appear in main window just like HTML viewer.
I understand that there is no difference as far as opendoc is concerned between .Net or JAVA. I am looking for the SDK behind the viewers themselves.
To my third question, your answer is what I was looking for. But need a bit clarification.

The only workaround for that is to set a property on the viewer object in the SDK but it will affect all hyperlinks in the report not just a single one.
By setting Property in SDK for the viewer Object, are you referring to Meta Tag encapsulation such as
<a href= http://infoview.server.com/Infoview/opendoc/openDocument.jsp?iDocID=ABZR3Z&sIDType=CUID&&sType=wid&sRefresh=Y&sWindow=new>Report Title</a>
May be I didn't get your point with setting property. I know there is documentation on Viewer SDK. I just can't seem to find it. I hope it would answer the questions.
