Crystal Reports 2008 (v12) Runtime on X64

I have been having some serious problems trying to view reports on my Vista x64 machine with CR2008 SP0. I have done an insane amount of testing with no good results.
The error is the typical one that says you either have the wrong key code or the wrong runtime.
At the request of an engineer on CR2008, I am posting my test procedure with results each step of the way.
This is a new computer that had no previous versions of anything on it. Vista x64 Ultimate with SP1, VS2008 SP1. That's it.
Uninstall CRBasic SP1
Uninstall CRBasic
Uninstall CRBasic x64 runtime
Install CR2008 SP0 (options: English only, typical installation)  (remember DEP is permanently off)
Results
  - As before, designer is now working inside VS2008
- Cannot view reports in debug mode or at runtime. Same error as always  - reg key permissions or incorrect runtime
Install Runtime (CRRuntime_12_0_mlb)
(Note, I never know what to put into the product id prompt. I just stick the keycode in there. But I donu2019t want to give my keycode out to my clients. I need to have them install the runtime so they can run this new version of my reports. What do I do?)
*Results
- I still cannot view reports. This is really aggravating. This is on the development machine where CR2008 is installed. I shouldnu2019t even need an additional runtime should I? Is this an x64 problem? I thought SP0 made that go away.  Is it really the keycode? I used my keycode to install CR2008. Is there something in the registry I should be checking?
Install Fix Pack 1
*Results
-no change in debug or from the compiled app
Install Fix Pack 2 (there is no info anywhere about this FP. Is it cumulative (including FP1)?
*Results
-no change in debug or from the compiled app
Reinstall runtime just in case
I see the whole thing is going into program files (x86).
Looked on website and saw a NEW runtime was uploaded 3 days ago.
Uninstalled prev. runtime.
Installed latest runtime
*Results
-no change
Rebooted (there are no prompts suggesting this)
*results
-No change

I would like to know if, in fact a 64 bit .NET  app can or cannot use the Crystal 2008 runtime (developer) to view reports.
No. You can not use CR 2008 runtime in 64 bit apps. CR 2008 only has 32 bit runtime...
CRRuntime_12_3_mlb.msi is what I use under 32bit. (works great) Is there something compatible if I compile as 64bit?
See the document SAP Crystal Reports, developer version for Microsoft Visual Studio Updates & Runtime Downloads. Note that version 13 is only for VS2010 / 2012...
BTW.; you are on Service Pack 3. I'd recommend updating to SP 5 (see above link).
BTW 2; re. spending 1/2 a day on the phone with SAP... did you get a case number?
BTW #3; the best place to post queries re. CR in .NET apps is the SAP Crystal Reports, version for Visual Studio SCN Space.

  • Crystal Reports 2008 (v12.3.1): connectivity to OLAP (Essbase)

    Hello,
    how do I connect to Essbase 9.3.1 cubes? By browsing support site I've got an impression that Essbase 9.3 is supported, but when I try to create a connection from Crystal Reports 2008 (v12.3.1) I can only choose Essbase 7.0 or Essbase 7.1 as a data source. Searching available Crystal downloads did not help either - the last available download for essbase support is dated 2003...
    So, could someone let me know if 9.3.1 is really supported and where to get the needed piece of software (driver) to make it happen.
    thanks and regards
    Z.

    Hi,
    As far as i know, the supported version of Essbase 9.3 is of client type and Essbase 7.1 is of server type.
    So, you can use the Essbase 9.3 as a client to connect to the 7.1 Essbase server.
    For more information you can refer the below link:

  • Crystal Reports 2008 in Windows Vista x64 + IIS7 DOESNT WORK!!!!!! HELP!

    Hi,
    I´m developing an application with Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 and Crystal Reports 2008 Professional
    (i´m not using the Crystal Reports 2008 for .Net basic)
    As I have Windows Vista x64, my ASP.NET applications run under IIS7, but for my surprise, Crystal doesn´t work under Vista x64 + IIS7. I got the following error:
    An error has occurred while attempting to load the Crystal Reports runtime. Either the Crystal Reports registry key permissions are insufficient, or the Crystal Reports runtime is not installed correctly. Please install the appropriate Crystal Reports redistributable (CRRedist*.msi) containing the correct version of the Crystal Reports runtime (x86, x64, or Itanium) required.  Please go to http://www.businessobjects.com/support for more information.
    When I run the same routine in an Windows Application the error doesnt occur. It only happens under Web Applications.
    I tested in a Windows Vista 32 bit and there´s no error....
    Crystal Reports 2008 does not work in II7 x64 ?
    Is there any solution?
    Please.... help me!!!!!

  • Crystal Reports 2008 - CR Runtime 12 issue

    We are developing our applications using VS 2008 and I also install the Crystal Reports 2008 developer edition. My project references all DLL's from Crystal Reports 2008 runtime (BusinessObjects\Common\4.0\Managed\dotnet2) to display CR reports in our GUI.
    However, I run into following problems when we walk through the assembly dependencies (our code traverse the dependency tree):
    - The dependency on BusinessObjects.Enterprise.Sdk, Version=12.0.1100.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=692fbea5521e1304 cannot be found, which is referenced by CrystalDecisions.Enterprise.Framework
    - Some dll are reported to be using .NET 1.1 runtime (e.g. "BusinessObjects.Licensing.KeycodeDecoder.dll v1.1.4322").
    Where could I find the missing dependencies?
    We are targeting customer installing on .NET 2.0 framework. How could we get around those v1.1.4322 dependencies (through I believe that the Crystal Reports Runtime 12 might install those into our clients)
    Thanks
    Sai-Kit

    First, I never DIRECTLY reference those .NET 1.1 DLL's in my project.
    - understood and expected
    The CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.dll however will try to load them as dependencies when my application is run. There is no way not to referencing CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.dll.
    - no the CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.dll ; will not try to load those assemblies. You can remove those assemblies from GAC. Your app will work just fine. I recommend you try this once you have removed the assemblies from your project..
    We need to deploy the application to our customer. If they only install .NET 2.0, they will ask why .NET 1.1 dll are installed into their computer (of course, as part of CR 12 runtime instead of our application). Also, why CR 10.5 is .NET 1.1 clean and CR 12 goes back to .NET 1.1??? My customer will have that concern after their upgrade.
    - As I mentioned twice now. The CR runtime (msm and / or msi files) do not install those assemblies. So your customer will not even get them installed. I recommend you try the install on a clean computer to see what actually gets installed.

  • How to use CRAXDDRT.DLL in crystal report 2008?

    Hello All,
    We have purchased Crystal report 2008 Full software.
    We need to insert BLOB field into Crystal report 2008 at runtime using *CRAXDDRT.DLL*.
    How can I insert OLE object and bind it at Runtime using crystal report 2008?
    Is it possible to insert Ole Object runtime using crystal report 2008? If yes how and if not is there alternative to perform this job.
    Please let me know your feedback.
    Thanks

    CrxDDrt.dll is only provided in order for the Crystal Reports designer in the .NET IDE.
    1) You are not licensed to use this CraxDDrt.dll
    2) Even if you were, in previous versions of CR, there were licensing implications to using the craxDDrt.dll (read $$)
    3) Once your project would be done, using CR 2008, you would not be able to distribute the runtime as there is no CR MSM or MSI that contains the craxDDrt.dll and it's supporting runtime.
    In your original post you say:
    "I need to show Word and Pdf file in to Crystal report 2008 using CRAXDDRT.DLL";
    I do not understand why you'd need to do this using the craxddrt.dll? You should be able to insert a BLOB field using the RAS SDK for .NET and CR 2008. Now, one hting you will have to keep in mind. If you insert a multipage .doc or .pdf file into the report, you will only get the first page of that document. I suggest you try this in the CR designer first. Always remember that if you can not do a certain thing in the designer, you will not be able to do it at runtime either. Giving all the limitations above, if you are still interested in doing this using RAS, let me know and I'll set you up with some resources to get you going.

    What combination of compile and run time is needed to get around this issue?
    See [this|https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=56787567] wiki. I think I may not have that wiki updated up to FP2.5, so the FP2.5 msm is here:
    https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100002975182010E/cr2008fp25_mm.zip

    https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100002975312010E/cr2008fp25_redist.zip
    Check the version of the CR assemblies referenced in your project. The use the wiki above to deploy the correct runtime.

  • Crystal Reports 2008 x64 Runtime

    When running a Crystal Reports 2008 and Visual Studio .NET 2008 windows application on a 64 bit Windows Server 2008 the following error message appears : "An error has occoured while attempting to load the Crystal Reports Runtime. Either the Crystal Reports registry key permissions are insufficient, or the Crystal Reports runtime is not installed correctly. Please install the appropriate Crystal Reports redistributable (CRRedist*.msi) containg the correct version of the Crystal Repors Runtime (x86, x64, or itanium) required."
    I read in the forum that this error message appears because there are no 64 bit dlls for Crystal Reports 2008.
    Well, I've installed either CR2008RedistSetup and CRRedist2008_x64.
    When compiling the application in Visual Studio .NET 2008 I need to use the 32 bit mode or the 64 bit mode.
    How can I do to solve it?

    Only the .NET 2005 (CR 10.2) and .NET 2008 (CR 10.5) bundles are 64 bit. You must compile the app as 32 bit and use the 32 bit CR runtime. Runtime file links are here;
    https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=56787567
    More information re. 32 bit and 64 bit versions of Crystal Reports is in [this|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/10d5fa88-2013-2c10-c9a5-f11963607d4e] article.

  • Crystal Reports 2008 Runtime, Windows Server 2008 64-Bit AND SharePoint2007

    Hi Guys,
    here i'm again.
    Well I'm developing on a 32-Bit OS with Crystal Reports 2008. I've deployed my solution to SharePoint, but when i try to call a report in the aspx-Website i get the following error:
    Exception Details: CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.LoadSaveReportException: An error has occurred while attempting to load the Crystal Reports runtime. Either the Crystal Reports registry key permissions are insufficient, or the Crystal Reports runtime is not installed correctly. Please install the appropriate Crystal Reports redistributable (CRRedist*.msi) containing the correct version of the Crystal Reports runtime (x86, x64, or Itanium) required. Please go to http://www.businessobjects.com/support for more information.
    Here are the technical details:
    - Windows Server 2008 (64Bit)
    - IIS7
    - Microsoft Office Server 2008 (64Bit)
    - Crystal Reports 2008 SP3
    I've read, that there isn't a 64-Bit runtime version of CR2008. Then i tryed the two following suggestions i found in this forum:
    1. Try to run the IIS-Application-Pool in 32-Bit-Mode -> This don't work, because SharePoint then throws a "Internal Server Error - Code 500" (no SharePoint Sites are available).
    2. Try to compile the Visual Studio Project as 32-Bit -> This don't work, because SharePoint could not load the assembly
    Well, are there any other hints, suggestions or  experiences how i could get this to work?
    Thanks in advance,

  • Insert OLE Object at runtime in a report (Crystal report 2008)

    Hello
    I need insert a WORD document at runtime into Crystal report 2008.

    Thank you

    Possible, but remember that only the 1st page of the word doc will be added - same as in the CR designer.
    There is a number of sample apps at [this|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc/samples?rid=/webcontent/uuid/80774579-b086-2b10-db91-ed58c4dda375] link. Add image sample may be good to look at.

    Dear Mr. Williams
    I dont think this is the issue related to MS Installer. Still based on your suggestion I downloaded the latest MS Installer from Microsoft Website and Installed on my setup machine and made the new setup with zero errors and warning.
    The deployment machine is having full rights and so there is no security issues  related to installation even though to clear the confusion I installed the setup on three other xp machines the result was same even after installing the latest MS installer on those machines as well.
    I wanrt to remind it again since I was facing the DATE TIME column Issue problem in reports on deployment machines so I updated the Crystal Reports TO CRFP 2.3 EXE AND MSM as mentioned in your forums regarding this known bug that if datetime column is getting from dataset then that column was not getting displayed.
    From that time onwards I am unable to install the setup on the deployment machines and I am getting errors unable to register errors crystal reports dlls.
    Apart from that I downloaded Crystal Reports 2008 Fix Pack 2.3 - Redist Install  (cr2008_fp23_redist.zip)  from the download page but i can't open it I am gettinig the error message doesnt appear to be a valid archive.
    Please help me and provide me some solution regardeing the issue I am stuck with.
    With Regards

  • Runtime Error  loading Crystal Reports 2008

    Hi there
    I have recently purchased online in the sap site the bundled product that includes SAP Crystal Reports and SAP Crystal Dashboard Design on the sap website. For those I received only one key code
    I downloaded both products and manage to installed and load SAP Crystal Dashboard Design. I have installed SAP Crystal Reports (CR2008LPs_02142011.exe) everything goes well. When I start the program it loads for a second and then I get the following error:
    u201C Runtime Error!
    Program: c:\Program Files\Businessu2026
    This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.
    Please contact the application support team for more information.u201D
    My OS is Windows 7 Enterprise 32-bit
    I have tried the following:
    u2022     Uninstalling and reinstalling again
    u2022     Downloading the file again from the sap site in case the file was corrupted
    u2022     I have uninstalled CR and download the SAP Crystal Reports trial version from SAP site
    u2022     Trying to navigate to the registry to clear the registry for recent files (as I have seen in this thread Crystal Reports 2008 Runtime Error) . I get the following error message when I click on u201CHKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Business Objects/Suite 12.0/Crystal Reports/Recent Filesu201D. Error:
    "Error opening Hey:
    Crystal Reports cannot be opened
    An error is preventing this key from being opened
    Details: Access is denied"
    I have been unsuccessful with all the above.
    I would appreciate if someone could help.
    Thanks in advance and regards,
    Santiago

    Hi Santiago,
    That error suggests you are not a local PC administrator. CR installs require you use an account that can update registry keys etc.
    Talk to your IT guys to give you full access to your PC or log on as the local PC Administrator and install it again.
    Thank you

  • Crystal Reports 2008 Trial Version Runtime Error

    Hello
    Yesterday I've downloaded Crystal Reports 2008 (Trial Version). The installation was successful. I've got no error.
    Anyway, I'm unable to start Crystal Reports. I get the following error:
    Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime LIbrary
    Runtime Error!
    Program: ...ects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\win32x86\crw32.exe
    Abnormal Program Termination
    I've already tried all "solutions" mentioned in Re: Crystal Reports 2008 trial version ERROR (DEP, HW acceleration, etc.) but without success (I'm running Windows XP with SP2). I've also updated Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 resp. 2008 redistributables...
    Can someone help me?
    Thank you!

    Hi Patrick,
    Nothing Strange about it. You need local Admin rights to access registry and other parts and CR needs the same.
    Check anti-virus or possibly firewall settings. When you installed did the installer ask you to allow All users to run CR?
    You may want to check with your IT guys, they may have modified your local user group to not allow some rights.
    Bottom kine is your PC security is blocking access that CR needs under your local user account.
    When you do try to run it does UAC pop up a message to allow you to run CR Designer? If not then it may be you have customer settings for that also.
    Search Microsofts site on more info on user rights.
    Thanks
    Don

  • Crystal Report 2008 Runtime License

    Hi,
    I have a Crystal Report 2008 designer license.
    I want to design reports and distribute to my clients.
    Clients will just execute the reports through my application with the Crystal Report 2008 Runtime.
    There is runtime available on:
    https://websmp130.sap-ag.de/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/bobj_download/main.htm
    While installing the runtime it does not ask for any license key.
    my query is do we require any license to use the Crystal Report 2008 Runtime?
    Can we install the same runtime on web servers so that multiple clients can use it.
    Do we require any license for the Runtime on server?
    Thanks,
    Abhijit

    Hi Thanks for the reply.
    Just to make it sure is that means?
    1. Crystal Report 2008 Runtime is free for the client applications.
    2. Crystal Report 2008 Runtime requires the 'SAP Crystal Reports runtime server license' to use the runtime on server applications.
    Is it correct.
    Thanks,
    Abhijit

  • Print layout different with crystal report 2008 runtime

    Hi,
    I have reports which I print on a pre printed stationary. With Crystal report 11.5 run time it works fine.
    Now I am using Crystal Report 2008 run time and with this I found that layout on the print is different than the actual layout in the design.
    The print with CR 2008 run time is not exactly matching with the pre printed stationary. Whereas it is working fine with the 11.5 run time.
    Can anyone please help?
    Thanks,
