Crystal report extremely slow after converting to SQL connection

We have a VB application developed in Visual Studio 2005 that references:
CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine v. 12.0.2000.0
CrystalDecisions.Enterprise.Framework v. 12.0.1100.0
CrystalDecisions.Enterprise.InfoStore v. 12.0.1100.0
CrystalDecisions.ReportSource v. 12.0.2000.0
CrystalDecisions.Shared v. 12.0.2000.0
CrystalDecision.Windows.Forms v. 12.0.2000.0
This application originally used ADO to connect to our SQL Server database.  I recently converted to a SQL connection so I can take advantage of table-valued parameters in SQL Server 2008.  After the conversion, some of our Crystal Reports now take up to 3 minutes to load, but only on some usersu2019 PCs.  Prior to the change, the reports only took a matter of seconds, and they still take only a matter of seconds on my development PC.  We have looked at all the settings we can think of on the slow PCs but so far have found no smoking gun.  Has anyone else experienced this issue?  Does anyone have any suggestions for how to find the problem?

Hi Gina,
Ah, that is why you are having problems. We had to fix CR so it would support MS SQL 2008. Not sure what version you are using but you need to install Service Pack 3 and then Fix Pack 3.5. Then CR will retain the SQLNCLI10 as it's data driver.
And what I mean is once you update CR have your report writers open each report and set location to the new DSN or old DSN with the updated 10 driver and then verify the reports and save. This will update the RPT files so the 10 client is used.
To get updated, and assuming you are on an early release the best way is to keep track of your keycode, uninstlal CR 2008 and then download CR SP 3 and FP 3.5:
https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100009989492010E/cr2008_sp3_fullbuild.zip
https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100006341722011E/cr2008fp35.exe
If you are on SP 2 then you can use the incremental SP 3 and then FP 3.5

Thank you

  • Blackberry Z10 became extremely slow after OS update to version 10.3.1.2243

    Hi,
    My Blackberry Z10 became extremely slow after OS update to version 10.3.1.2243. For example it sends text message 10-15 seconds after send button has been hit.
    Can not answer the phone when a caller is calling (answer slide interface is unrespnsovie), if I want to launch any application screen turns black and nothing happens, etc.
    Does anyone experience similar issues?
    Thank you.
    Michal.

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    A quick read of this site will answer your final question quite clearly. The "fix" depends on several factors, but given what you describe I recommend you immediately update, via AutoLoader, to the most recent version (.2582)...some of the prior versions contain some particularly challenging issues, which are reported to be fixed in this version.
    Good luck and let us know!

  • My final cut is running extremely slow after having for 6 months.  I use external hard drives and save nothing on my computer.  it takes a long time to render now. do you think something is wrong with computer. took it to mac store but they fail to help

    my final cut is running extremely slow after having for 6 months.  I use external hard drives and save nothing on my computer.  it takes a long time to render now. do you think something is wrong with computer. took it to mac store but they fail to help me.  I have a 13 inch mac book pro 10.6.8 8gb 2.3 gfz intel core i5

    What did Apple tell you about what they did (or did not) find here?
    See if working on the main disk is any faster.
    USB2 is glacial, as I/O interconnects go.  And USB2 disks have been known to fail, or sometimes to drop back to USB1 speeds, too.  FireWire 800 is substantially faster than USB2, but still not as fast as the internal drive connections can provide.
    Put another way, start varying your configuration, and see which configuration changes (still) have the problem, and which don't.

  • IPhoto is extremely slow after upgrading to OSX Maveric

    Has anyone noticed that iPhoto is extremely slow after upgrading to OSX Maverick

    I've noticed that it isn't.
    There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 8 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
    - History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    - Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
    Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

  • IPhone 3G is extremely slow after 4.0 update.

    Both my sister and I have experienced our phones to be extremely slow after updating them. The messages take a few seconds to open, same with the apps. Also while typing, nothing will show up then all of a sudden everything you had typed will show up. It just seems like everything on the phone is slow. I've done some research on it, and everyone said to restore it. The people at Apple said not to do that unless it's the last resort. Is anyone else experiencing this?

    Why post the same question twice ?

  • Itunes starts extremely slow after an update of windows 8.1.

    Itunes starts extremely slow after an update of windows 8.1.
    It takes up to 10 minutus.
    If I see the appliction log in event viewer then I see the following errors on the Bonjour service.
    For instance:
      Client application bug: DNSServiceResolve(a8:fa:d8:3a:1e:8f@fe80::aafa:d8ff:fe3a:1e8f._apple-mobdev2._t cp.local.) active for over two minutes. This places considerable burden on the network.
    followed by
      SendWakeupPacket error: sent -1 bytes: 10065
    What can this be?
    Already thanks,
    John

    I did all the step with save mode and that didn't gave the same result.
    Then I created a new account and there itunes started up normally.
    So I contued with the user section.
    I removed the itunes directory from
    c:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Apple Computer\iTunes
    This gave the same result in not starting up.
    Then I removed the itunes directory from
    c:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes
    The a popup appears that the Bonjour Service has been disabled.
    I looked in services and saw that is was still running.
    But I tried to restart this service and it took a long time to stop this service.
    Even if I selected restart the Bonjour Service didn't start.
    Manually starting was not a problem.
    Clicking OK on the popup let itunes start quickly. And closing and starting it again was also quickly.
    So Matt thanks for your answer.
    If it happens again I have to see if it was the removing of the itunes directory from roaming or restarting the Bonjour Service.

  • WK2008 extremly slow after fresh install

    Hi there guys!
    We got a pair of UCS 210 M2 Serie C Servers, We managed to install WK2008 R2 Enterprise Edition x64 into the server, but is extremly slow and is not even connected to the network, we verified that all the drivers and updates are up to date.
    Also we tray to install WK2008 using the Utility disc but every time we finish the wizard and the server reboot, the RAID is degraded!. anyone has this kind of issues before?
    Greetings.

    Hi abbharga thank for responding, the problem was the Ethernet Card we use the drives listed here and problem is ok:
    https://supportforums.cisco.com/message/3147005#3147005
    2) How did you confirm the RAID is degraded? Do you see any amber on the disk? What is the adapter you using and what is the RIAD level configured?
    Yes when the server reboot after using the utility disc i see the raid 1 degraded, but we manage to make a standalone install of windows server 2008 r2.
    But i think we have another problem, when swaping disc (testing the raid 1) the rebuild is taking too much time, at least 12 hours to finish the proccess. Is this normal?

  • My mbp (mid 2010) is running extremely slow after installing some mavericks updates on May 22nd.

    My mbp (mid 2010) is running extremely slow after installing some mavericks updates on May 22nd. Earlier I thought this behavior is due to spotlight indexing but it finished after 3 days. I deleted all caches from library. But no luck, still running extremely slow. I checked activity monitor for cpu usage, it shows above 90% is idle. The memory usage always shows PM - 4 GB, Memory Used 3.96 GB, VM - 4 GB, Swaped used 0 bytes, App Memory 1.82 GB, File Cache 1.44 GB, Wired Memory 480 MB.
    Thanks in adavnce for help.

    Was it the combo updater that was installed or the OS X 10.9.3 update. There is a difference.
    MORE INFO ON WHY RUNNING COMBO FIXES ISSUES
    Apple updates available from the Software Update application are incremental updates. Delta updates are also incremental updates and are available from Apple Downloads (software updates are generally smaller than delta updates). The Combo updates contain all incremental updates and will update files that could have become corrupted.
    Combo updaters will install on the same version as they're applying--no need to roll back or do a clean install. So if you think you've got a borked 10.8.4 install from a regular update, just run the 10.8.4 Combo Updater on that system.
    "Delta" updaters can only take you from one version to the next. For example: 10.9.1 to 10.9.2. If somehow the 10.9.2 is missing something it should have, and that something isn't changed between 10.9.1 and 10.9.2 it will still be stale after the delta update.

  • Apple TV extremely slow after sleeping

    Hi all, My apple tv early 2012 is extremely slow after its slept.. (by slow i mean the wifi connection, both to internet and airplay)... Its so slow you can't hear a song or anything, it keeps cutting in and out.. I don't know why this is and its starting to annoy me..
    It has only been happening recently (last two weeks)  so  far I have tried :
    multiple restars = works until the next time it goes into sleep mode or left for a long time
    restore = same as above (latest software)
    disconnect and reconnect does the same thing.. works until I leave it overnight..
    Anyone with any ideas what this could be?
    I thought maybe it was my router but none of my other products are doing this : iphone 4  and 5 and two laptops..
    There has been no physical damage to the 6 months old apple TV
    Thanks all!

    I have a macbook. but after the restore home share hasn't been activated.. its with streaming content from the internet with apple tv itself and also airplay runs extremely choppy

  • How can I stop Crystal reports from locking tables in our SQL db?  PLEASE HELP!!!

    Post Author: kevans
    CA Forum: Data Connectivity and SQL
    I really need help with this and so far I've had no luck finding a solution on Crystal's knowledge base, forums our even outside of this site.
    I recently upgraded from crw8 to crw10 and of course after converting reports and placing them into production I now discovered that crw10 will place locks (blocking) on the SQL tables it is using.
    Is there a setting in crystal so I can turn this off?  Someone said I can use a statement like ... "with (nolock)"  but I can't seem to figure out the correct syntax to use, I'm not even sure if this works since I can't find info on it.  I desperately need help!!!
    Example - if this is my select statement how would I add the "nolock" to it?
    (DateTimeToDate (PDMTimeToDateTime ({call_req.open_date})) >= {?Starting Date}) AND   (DateTimeToDate (PDMTimeToDateTime ({call_req.open_date})) <= {?End Date}) AND    (if {?Select_Group} <> "ALL" then {ca_contact.last_name} = {?Select_Group}         else if {?Select_Group} = "ALL" then true) AND            {call_req.type} = {?Type}

    CA Forum: Data Connectivity and SQL
    no lock is used in the sql stored procedure. i believe you can look at your sql statement in the report and place the nolock(prior to the table name)
    the only problem with this is you may get dirty data. most sql developers dont recommend it especially with real time data.

  • Web discoverer report run slow after upgrade to AS10.1.2.48.18

    We just upgraded our application server to 10.1.2.48.18, our web Discoverer report were running extremly slow on tables that contain large amount of data. We have good speed with those report in the past. The backgroud database was the same as well as the web server.Using desktop version of Discoverer were fine with normal speed.
    Does any one know why? How to speed it up?
    Thanks!

    A few things to check:
    Are all machines using the same version of SQL*Net?
    Are the reports in different EULs (if so, are the EULs at different versions)?
    Do all reports work in Disco Plus or Disco Desktop?
    What types of reports are failing (cross tabs, tabular, both)?
    For the reports that are failing, how many rows are you expecting?
