Failed to open the connection. ... ~tmp.rpt

Environment:
MS-Windows Server 2003, Standard Edition, Service Pack 2
BusinessObjects XI r2 - v11.5.8.826
Crystal Reports Developer, Full - v11.0.0.2381
I am currently experiencing a "Failed to open the connection. ... ~tmp.rpt" error when scheduling a specific report through CMC or InfoView.
The report can be previewed successfully in CR, InfoView, and CMC. Only scheduling attempts cause this error.
The environment currently hosts approximately 100 other reports that are functioning perfectly. These other reports can be scheduled and generated successfully.
Data connection chain is as follows:
Oracle 11g DB
Oracle driver v10.02.00.01
Oracle TNS Name (connection verified).
MS-ODBC file DSN (connection verified).
BusinessObjects Data Connection (connection verified - dependent integrity checked).
above BO-DC added to BusinessObjects Dynamic Data Connection (dependent integrity checked).
Data Foundation for the report in question can be viewed using the BO-DC and the database verifies successfully.
Business Elements and View for the report are in place and integrity verified.
If anyone out there has fixed a similar situation, or may have some troubleshooting ideas, please let me know.
Thanks in advance,
Geoffrey.

My next suggestion would be to 'peel' the report. Step by step remove a certain formula / functionality etc. to determine what can cause the issue. I once had a WebI report which would get corrupt once I added a certain feature to it. Without it I could save and open it perfectly. You can also try it in reverse and start with a blank (or previously saved) version and start building it, saving in between to verify.
Hope this helps...

CRS 2008 - Failed to open the connection.

I just recently installed the evaluation of CRS 2008 onto my server. I can access every function in CMC and can see all reports that were published in InfoView. However, when I attempt to view a report, I get an error that states "Failed to open the connection. <<Report_Name.rpt>> "
The server is a Windows 2003 R2 machine, with IIS 6.0 installed.
During installation, I had checked both IIS & Java (along with the installation of Tomcat 5.5)
I also installed Crystal Reports 2008, and all reports work perfectly in the developer. The database that the reports pulls data from is a Progress 9.1D database. Could the database be an issue even though I am connecting through an ODBC?

Yes, the DSN is a system DSN and is located on the server that Crystal Reports Server 2008 is installed on. The Progress driver is also loaded. That driver is the MERANT 3.60 32-bit Progress SQL92 v9.1D.
When I run the diagnostics, Web Intelligence Tier fails with the following error:
"Error creating Dataproviders. null - Error viewing Web Intelligence Document. Cannot initialize Report Engine server. (Error: RWI 00226) - Scheduling Web Intelligence Report failed. --Document: " Diagnostic Web Intelligence Document Test" not found."
I'm hoping this can shed some light on what is wrong.

CR2008 - Failed to open the connection. Failed to open the connection. ...

Getting the following error when running CR2008 reports from web server:
"Failed to open the connection. Failed to open the connection. <report_name>{2585477E-FB02-4594-9DB5-FFBFF2ABE124}.rpt"
The web server is a Windows Server 2008 x64. The IIS7 application pool is configured for 32bit, which solved our initial problem. We are getting the above error if we use either CR2008 or CR2008 SP1. Same issue with CRRuntime_12_1_mlb.exe.
If we load CR2008 onto the web server, we can open and run the reports. Thus, there appears to be no problem with the reports or the data source (an Access database). Web application runs on development machine (windows xp).
Why is there a GUID in the report file name? How can we resolve this issue or what else should we check?
TIA, Gary.

Figured it out. Turns out the ODBC data source name had been setup incorrectly. Became obvious when stepping through the code.

Hi,
Following solution might help you to resolve the issue.
Solution1:
Issue happens because universe connection to the Database is not responding and the Data Source Name is not configured to write SQL Server 2005 database.
Resolution
Created new DSN connection under SYSTEM DSN to SQL Server 2005 Database.
Import the universe from the designer.
Go to File->Parameters.
Edit Connection.
On the Database Middleware Page expand SQl Server 2005->Select SQL Server 2005 driver.
Change the DSN to new DSN connection
Test the connection.
Save the Universe and Export it to the repository.
Solution2:
I am taking Oracle as an example over here.
This can be caused when the SQLNET.ora is located in a remote location using mapped drives.
Resolution
To resolve,
check the registry [HKLM\SOFTWARE\ORACLE] you should see a folder called HOME0
look for any paths that contain a mapped drive partition
Change the mapped drive letter to a UNC path (
server\folder)
Open a command prompt and do a tnsping using the tnsname and verify the location of the SQLNET.ora or TNSNAMES.ora
If the path is not updated to the new path
Reboot the server

Getting Error:Failed to open the connection while calling crystal report

I am getting the below error while calling the crystal report from dot net app. I am using OLEDB to connect to database. It is working perfectly in our DEV environment but as soon as I move it to production information after changing the logon information in the report it start giving the below error.
Failed to open the connection.C:\WINDOWS\TEMP{C2FD97D9-2ADE-41BB-88FF-23A4DF20BC6F}.rpt
Details: [Database Vendor Code: 17 ]

Are you able to connect to the database from the production machine using a UDL file?
If you haven't tried this, here's how to do it. Take these steps on the machine that is hosting the application. Create a new text file on the desktop. Change the file extension to ".udl" (without the quotes). Double-click on this to bring up the OLEDB connection test: start on the Provider tab and select the appropriate provider. Click "Next" and on the following tab enter your connection information. Click the "Test Connection" button to test the connection. Does it connect to the database successfully?
If you click on "OK" to close the dialog and then open the UDL file with Notepad, you should see an OLEDB connection string. In this string should be the same property values for server, database, user id and password which you are providing through your application. If they are not the same, modify your application to use these values.
If testing your connection information with the UDL file works but your application is still failing when using the same credentials, try profiling or tracing the database. Do you see connection attempts from the application? Are there any errors?
If you're impersonating, have you set up windows authentication correctly for both the application and the database?

CR2008:Failed to open the connection. Failed to open the connection. Report

Hi,
I've just upgraded from Crystal XI R2 to Crystal 2008. All my reports open happily in Crystal 2008. I have also deployed the Crystal 2008 runtime to a Windows 2003 SP2 R2 server running ASP.NET 1 and ASP.NET 2. Before the Crystal 2008 runtime was installed on top of the already present Crystal XI R2 Runtime I could view RPT files via the .NET report viewer (version XI). Now that Crystal 2008 runtime is installed I receive an error message when I try to view the reports, again, via the .NET report viewer (version 12), although no code has changed apart from all references changed from XI to 2008.
Code is:
CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument oReportDocument = new CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument();
            oReportDocument.Load(sReportFilename);
Tables oTables = oReportDocument.Database.Tables;
               foreach (CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.Table oTable in oTables)
                    TableLogOnInfo crTableLogOnInfo = oTable.LogOnInfo;
                    crTableLogOnInfo.ConnectionInfo.IntegratedSecurity = true;
                    crTableLogOnInfo.ConnectionInfo.DatabaseName = "DB" ;
                    crTableLogOnInfo.ConnectionInfo.ServerName = "server" ;
                    oTable.ApplyLogOnInfo(crTableLogOnInfo);
CrystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = oReportDocument;
            this.DataBind();
Error message is: 'Failed to open the connection. Failed to open the connection'.
Any help would be great.
Regards
Tony

You are correct in that there are no database connectivity changes in CR 2008.
If you do not have SP0 for CR 2008, download it from here:
https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100007528552008E/cr2008_sp0.zip
If that does not help, I'd like to check if the correct dlls are loading when using CR 2008. To do that, download the modules utility from here:
https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100006252802008E/modules.zip
Then do the following:
1) unzip the download
2) Run the app with the CR 2008 references
3) get the error. leave the error on the screen
4) Start modules
5) Go to the File menu, select New List -> Memory Modules
6) Expand "By process"
7) Find the app exe (or the .NET dev env)
8) Click on that
9) Go to the View menu and select Details
10) Look to see if there are any dlls loading form the CR XI r2 directory (c:\Program files\Business Objects\Common\3.5\bin)

Failed to open the connection on CR Server 2008 .

Hi,
1. I used trial version of CR Server 2008 V1 SP3, I upload a rtp file into this server and try to view. but after parameters input, I got "Failed to open the connection". this rpt work very will on my CR Server XI version.
2. on this new CR server, this rpt file database configuration, I used "use original database logon information from report" and select "Prompt the user for database logon".
3. on my old CR server, when I view this RPT, system will prompt a logon information to let me logon DB, but on new server, system didn't show the DB logon screen before input parameter.
On client PC, I has set a system DSN when I created this rpt file. Does anybody can help ?

Failed to open the connection: Error Code 17

Here's an odd one.
Environment:
VB.NET Winform
Visual Studio 2008
.NET framework 2.0
Crystal Reports 2008
ODBC connection
I have three reports, living in the same directory. They are essentially identical, except for the grouping. All three run successfully within Crystal reports.
From a report viewer Winform in VS, two of the three run. As I am dealing with a small data set, the reports render quickly. On the third report, There is a long pause when the report viewer form opens, then I finally get an error:
"Failed to open the connection.
Details: [Database Vendor Code: 17]
Failed to open the connection.
CallReportByExtension 58F5C135-7BA3-4215-898A-DADA6C7DAD9C.rpt
Details:[Database Vendor Code: 17]
I was initially getting similar errors on all three reports, before changing the datasource location to my ODBC connection. I have double-checked the location, verified the database, etc.
What am I doing wrong? I can provide the VB code if requested, but since the other two reports work properly, I doubt it's code. I do know that I am passing the report name and path correctly to the report viewer form.
As I am about to kick my monitor through the window and become a street denizen, I would greatly appreciate any help that would be offered.
Thanks,

Failed to open the connection - database vendor code 17

I'm upgrading a VB.net Windows Forms application from 1.1 to 4.0. In the reporting form, the list of reports you can choose are pulled from a folder where the .rpt files reside. Once the user chooses a report and executes it, vb code populates the current database connection information and displays the report in the report viewer control.
The following things are true:
- Version 1.1 works on my systems and my customers systems
- The code has not been changed, except that it now targets .Net 4.0 instead of 1.1
- The exact same .rpt files are being used
- Version 4.0 connects to the same database my customer is using, and I can run the reports just fine from here.
- Version 4.0 is able to connect to the database just fine from my customers systems (using the same connection information provided to the report)
- My customer installed this: http://downloads.businessobjects.com/akdlm/cr4vs2010/CRforVS_redist_install_32bit_13_0_2.zip
The only problem is that my customer encounters this error when trying to run any report from his systems:
Failed to open the connection.

Failed to open the connection.

I read all of the articles I could find, and they either don't describe this exact situation, or there is insufficient information for troubleshooting this issue. Are there steps that I've missed to make Crystal Reports for VS2010 work on my customer's systems?
Your help is appreciated,
Mark

Hi Mark,
More information required -
- Does this happen with all reports or few?
- What is the connection type used for the report to connect to the database (OLEDB,ODBC etc)
- Are you changing the database at runtime?
few things you could check
- Check if the database is accaessible from the client machine with proper permissions / rights.
- If its an ODBC connection check if the DSN with same name is created on the client machine.
- Check the driver / provided used by the report to connect to the DB, verify that the same is installed on the client machine. (SQL NAtive client, SQL Server etc)
Also take a look at below articles discussing the simillar issue.

Failed to open the connection. Details: [Database Vendor Code: 53 ]

I'm upgrading one of our applications from Visual Studio 2005 to 2010. In the process I'm also switching our reports to run using Stored Procedures instead of Tables/Views. Everything runs fine on development machines after all the migration work. On the server however, it does not work. And I am getting the error message ""
Server is Windows 2003 Server 32 bit. And yes, I have installed the latest runtimes version 13.0.2000.0 on the server. There have been no other changes on the server other than to switch the target framework on the website in question from .net 2 to .net 4, and then to modify the web.config file to remove references to the older Crystal Reports and replace with references to the newer version.
I've seen many other threads on this "failed to open the connection" errors but none of them are my problem except there is one post that remains unanswered where someone had the same Database Vendor Code 53. I don't know what that error means, spent a considerable amount of time researching that before asking this question.
Lastly, it appears that this error only happens when the report is pulling data from a Stored Procedure rather than Tables/Views. If I re-copy the previous reports, they still work.
The ODBC drivers haven't changed, nor should they. They are fully up to date on that server machine.

Lots of great info here, except for the database; MS SQL? Oracle? Etc?
Database Vendor Code 53 is an error code that the CR engine simply passes straight from the database it's self. E.g.; look at your database error code and you should be able to find a verbose description of the error.
As a test, what happens if you add the report to your project and run it in the CR design part of the .NET IDE?
- A quick google search of Error 53 (for MS SQL - an assumption) comes up with a number of good hits. E.g.;

Failed to open the connection, when view returns no data.

Hi Guys,
I'm having a minor issue.
I'm running a report in the crystalreportsviewer in asp.net.
The report is retrieving it's data from a view.
The report also has a subreport with an overview with totals, using the same view and the same parameters as the primary report.
Now everything is working fine in a filled database.
But when the view does not return any data, i get the following error:
Failed to open the connection. Failed to open the connection. Details:

Lot of important info missing here:
1) What version of CR?
2) What CR updates have you applied?
3) What version of .NET?
4) Is this on your dev box or after you deploy?
5) Have you looked up error code 53 for your database? (This is the error code CR engine is simply passing through from the db client)
6) What is the database?
7) What connection method are you using?
8) Depending on the version of CR, can you run this report in the CR designer?
9) Copy and paste the code used to run the report.

resolved by me itself.
Do the following steps:
1. Open the report in the CR XI designer.
2. Select Database -> Set Datasource Location.
3. Set Datasource Location window will appear and in the replace with section connect to the database and replace these tables with the tables in the current datasource by clicking the update button.
4. After updating close the Set Datasource Location window.
5. Go to 'Database menu' and Click 'Verify Database' and click on u2019OKu2019.
6. Preview the report and the save the report.

Failed to open the connection.....[Database Vendor Code: -30081 ]

Hi,
We are using Crystal Reports to pull information from DB2. I received the following error during a DRP (disaster recovery planning) exercise. I am trying to determine what caused the error.
Failed to open the connection. E:\temp\procSched\otchrt48.cibc-hr.eds.com.reportjobserver\~tmp17346b7ba1ea3b0.rpt Details: [Database Vendor Code: -30081 ]
version of BOE we are using: BO Product: 11.5
Crystal reports XI R2
Any help would be appreciated.
Regards,
Kesavan

Hello,
And if you look up that error code for DB2 what does it indicate? CR is simply passing the message from the DB2 client to a message box. It's the Client that is not configured and causing the error to log on.
Thank you
Don
