CA Forum: Data Connectivity and SQL
I can create and run a report no problem on Crystal Reports XI. However when i upload it to the CMC i get Fail to open the connection. I use ODBC 3.51.17 for MySQL.I created Business Views from Dynamic Data Connections (could the problem be in here in the DC or DDC?)Reports are created in Crystal then uploaded to the CMCReports run FINE in Crystal, but once it is uploaded to the CMC i get a "Failed to open the connection. xxxx.rpt

G'day,
I'm facing the same problem, so did configuring ODBC and DNS solve this?
If they did, I'd like to know how to do this in Linux. So far I've installed unixODBC and mysql ODBC connector, what else should be done? Is there some "list of things to do after installation" for Crystal Reports Server in Linux.

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:12154]
I am brand new to Crystal Reports Server. I am using Oracle as a database and 10g client on my XP workstations. I keep getting this message. I have my ODBC drivers loaded and tested for connection. I have my Business View set up with the appropriate TNSNAMES.ora and login. When I run any report, I get this message. Can anyone tell me where my connection is broken? It is driving me crazy!
Thanks, PamEdit: just realized I replied to a 3 years old thread...
Though Crystal Reports is not my speciality, if you use Oracle, then I assume you are using the Oracle client as middleware, not ODBC, so that is more around the Oracle client you need to investigate rather than the ODBC. Tell me if I missed something here.
Could you also clarify the OS you are implementing that solution on (32/64bits) and the connectivity you use from Business View (ODBC or Oracle client connectivity?)
It also struck my mind that the DB vendor error code you get is around ORA-12154 "Could not resolve the connect identifier", which means you have a problem resolving the alias of the DB. This assumption seems to be confirmed by the fact it works from neither Crystal client nor the web interface.

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.

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,
MarkHi 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.
I can't think of anything else that would be indicative of anything other than this is a bug. Here is the error text as it shows up in the event log:

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. Details: [Database Vendor Code: 12154].
I have installed Crystal reports server 2008 VI on a Windows 2008 64bit OS. I have added SQL server and Oracle reports through CMC. I then installed Oracle 10g client 32bit on the server and created and tested the required DSNs using ODBC 32bit. All the testings are successfull.
Now when I try to run my Oracle report through CMC it prompts for the parameters and when I enter them and click ok, gives me the following error:
Failed to open the connection. Details: [Database Vendor Code: 12154].
I have the same exact setup on a different server which has a 32 bit windows 2008 server OS and could run the same reports through CMC.
Is there away to fix this in the 64 bit OS?
I did a yahoo search and someone had a similar problem with Crystal RAS and Oracle.
And there is mentions that this is an issue with 32 bit ODBC drivers on 64bit wondows OS.The parentheses in the default file location, C:\Program Files (x86), causes problems with the ODBC driver and the workarouns in re-installing Crystal RAS on a different folder.
Full description is at (http://www.tririga.info/)
Is this the case with Crystal report server 2008 VI? I already got users using the InfoView to run SQL reports and doing this will have to put the application offline atlease for a say.
Any help is greatly appreciated.Vasana,
Resolution: Failed to Open the Connection.
First:
If the Crystal Report is using 32-bit version of Microsoft ODBC then the Window 2008 server must also have 32-bit version of Microsoft ODBC. The 32- bit version of Odbcad32.exe is located in the %systemdrive%\Windows\SysWoW64 folder.
On the Windows 2008 server, execute Odbcad32.exe by clicking start and run and entering the following: C:\Window\SysWow64\ODBC32.exe.
Then:
The Windows 2008 server ODBC Data Source Administrator must have the same System Data Source Server and Database Names that is used to run the Crystal Report.
e.g. Crystal Report points to server ABC and database EFG (ABC_efg); then the ODBC connections on the Windows 2008 Server must also point to the same server ABC and database EFG (abc_efg) listed. -

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 ]

Any help would be appreciated.
Regards,
KesavanHello,
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

"Failed to open the connection" problem related to multiple tables in the report?
Post Author: Gadow
CA Forum: Data Connectivity and SQL
System specifics:
Web environment using ASP.Net 2.0 (from Visual Studio 2005 Professional)
Crystal Reports 2008, v. 12.0.0.549, Full
We have set up the following method for displaying reports via our website:
User is sent to a report-specific page. The user is given some filtering options specific to the report that will be viewed. When the user has specified the data filters, the user clicks a button.
The page wraps up the report parameters -- selection query, formula values, report location, the name to be displayed, etc. -- into a class which gets put into the Session object.
The page redirects to DisplayReport.aspx. ALL reports redirect to this page.
DisplayReport.aspx retrieves the report parameters from Session. A ReportDocument object is created and loaded, then set with the data from the parameters class.
A ConnectionInfo object is created and set with the relevant log on credentials. All of the reports draw from the same database, so the connection information is hard-coded as the same for all reports. The page then iterates through all of the tables in the Database.Tables collection of the ReportDocument and calls ApplyLogOnInfo to each table using the ConnectionInfo object.
The page is rendered and the user gets the filtered report.
We currently have seven reports. Five reports work fine and display the correctly filtered data with no error messages. Two reports generate a Failed to open the connection error and do not display. I have verified that the queries being sent to DisplayReport.aspx are valid, and as I said the connection information itself is hard-coded in the one page that displays the reports and this is identical to all reports.
The five reports that do work all have a single data table, either an actual database table or a single view. The two reports that do not work all have multiple tables. As far as I can tell, this is the only difference between the sets; all seven reports are based on the same DSN and I have verified the database on all of the reports. All of the reports were written using Crystal Reports 8, and all of the reports display fine in a Windows app I wrote some years ago using Crystal Reports 8. Again, the only difference between those reports that do work and those that do not is the number of tables used in the report: one table or view in the reports that display, more than one table (tables only, none use views) in the reports that do not display.
As for the code I am using, below are the relevant methods. The function MakeConnectionInfo simply parses out the components of a standard SQL connection string into a ConnectionInfo object. DisplayedReport is the ID of the CrystalReportViewer on the page.Protected Sub Page_Init(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
Dim o As Object = Session("ReportParams")
Dim ReportURL As String = ""
'Verify that there is a ReportParameters object
If o Is Nothing OrElse o.GetType IsNot GetType(ReportParameters) Then 'Redirect to the error page
Response.Redirect("/errors/MissingReport.aspx")
End If
ReportParams = CType(o, ReportParameters)
'Verify that the report exists
ReportURL = "/Reports/ReportFiles/" + ReportParams.ReportName
ReportPath = Server.MapPath(ReportURL)
If Not File.Exists(ReportPath) Then
Response.Redirect("/errors/MissingReport.aspx?Report=" + ReportParams.ReportTitle)
End If
InitializeReport()
End Sub
Protected Sub InitializeReport()
Dim RD As New ReportDocument
Dim CI As ConnectionInfo = MakeConnectionInfo(DB_Bonus)
Dim RPF As CrystalDecisions.Shared.ParameterField = Nothing
RD.Load(ReportPath)
If ReportParams.SelectString <> "" Then
Dim Adapt As New SqlDataAdapter(ReportParams.SelectString, DB_Bonus)
Dim DS As New Data.DataSet
Adapt.Fill(DS)
RD.SetDataSource(DS.Tables(0))
End If
For Each kvp As KeyValuePair(Of String, String) In ReportParams.Formulas
Dim FFD As FormulaFieldDefinition = Nothing
Try
FFD = RD.DataDefinition.FormulaFields(kvp.Key)
Catch ex As Exception
'Do nothing
End Try
If FFD IsNot Nothing Then
Select Case FFD.ValueType
Case FieldValueType.DateField, FieldValueType.DateTimeField
If IsDate(kvp.Value) Then
FFD.Text = String.Format("Date()", Convert.ToDateTime(kvp.Value).ToString("yyyy, MM, dd"))
Else
FFD.Text = "Date(1960, 01, 01)"
End If
Case FieldValueType.StringField
FFD.Text = String.Format("""""", kvp.Value)
Case Else
'For now, treat these as if they were strings. If things blow up here,
'we will need to add the appropriate formatting for the field type.
FFD.Text = String.Format("""""", kvp.Value)
End Select
End If
Next
For Each T As CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.Table In RD.Database.Tables
Dim TLI As TableLogOnInfo = T.LogOnInfo
TLI.ConnectionInfo = CI
T.ApplyLogOnInfo(TLI)
Next
DisplayedReport.ReportSource = RD
End Sub
Does this approach not work with reports containing multiple tables, or is there something I'm missing? Any meaningful suggestions would be much appreciated.Dear Dixit,

Failed to open the connection. Error in the Designer when copying ...
I have two different systems I am developing an application on.
I copy the entire directory from one system to the other. Both systems have the same environment:
Visual Studio 2010
Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2010 (the production release, or I think it is the vesion is 13.0.2.0 is the version on the assemblies)
SQL 2008 R2
Today, I started adding Crystal reports to this VS solution. I have a reportdriver class that exports all the reports to an HTTP Stream, but we can sit that aside for now. The problem I am having is strictly with the integrated designer.
I have a bunch of existing reports written for an old Sybase databse. I have ported them to SQL and the table structure matches. I simply add the report to my project, point it to the new datasource (using "Set Datasource Location" - OLE ADO SQL) and then preview the report to be sure it runs.
I am just using "localhost" as my server name for the OLE connection so I...in theory... don't have to change the data source to view it on the other system. Both systems have SQL 2008 R2 installed locally. For my login credentials, I use SQL Security and use the same database login/password on both development machines andthe production server.
Today, I copied my entire project to the other PC (as I do almost every day).. When I open any of the reports (in VS) and try to preview them I get:
Failed to open the connection.
Details: ADO Error Code: 0x80004005
Source: Microsoft OLE DB Provide for SQL Server
Description: [DBNETLIB][ConnectionOpen (Connect().]SQL Server does not exist or access denied.
SQL State: 08001
Native Error: 17 [Database Vendor Code: 17]
I can only guess that I am using two different OLE ADO drivers on the two systems or there is something embedded in the rport or somewhere in my solution that "knows" I am not really on the same system that I initially set them up on and previewd them with.
Am I on the right track? Any idea how I can fix this? Obviously, I don't want to have to setup the datasource for every report in my application (if I do that, the report works) when I copy it from the development to the production server.
I am in a real bind here and under a fast aproaching deadline. Any help is much appreciated!!!
ShayneDon't use localhost as your server name. It's a reserved name and should not be used in code.

Crystal Server 2011 "Failed to open the connection" with 32 & 64 bit drivers are loaded
Brand new installation of Crystal Reports Server 2011 with CR Developer 2011 as well. Downloaded new Postgres and MySQL drivers for both the 32 and 64 bit ODBC definitions. Created a new report on the server to eliminate any migration driver incompatibility issues. Reports run fine in Developer but give the same "Failed to open the connection."
and still problems running the reports If I Save Data with the reports, I can click View to see the data, but they will not refresh.
All the articles I'm finding online seem to point to the issue with needing 32 & 64 bit drivers, but I've loaded both and built my ODBC connections with the 32 drivers in the SysWOW64 folder.
Logged in as Administrator. Any thoughts out there? Are there some new security measures?
Thanks in advance ...Yes, Designer and CRS are on the same machine.
Good catch with the 5.1 driver. I loaded up the mysql-connector-odbc-5.1.13-win32 driver and used that. It alone failed when I made the ODBC connection with it. I see on the CRS 2011 Feature Pack 3 .pdf file that it says "Only 64-bit database connector middleware is supported" ... I downloaded the other mysql-connector-odbc-5.1.13-winx64 64bit file, but teh .msi and .zip versions failed on the load. Do I need that if it says that or should the first one be enough?
I've been trying to use a normal User DSN, no? Apparently I don't have access as a machine Administrator to do it as I get "You are logged on with non-Administrative privileges. System DSNs could not be created or modified." Having our server guys get that straightened out and we'll see. Had not heard of that actually but will give it a go.
You say I should create the DSN entries in the 64 bit version of the ODBC Data Source Administrator ... located in the system32 folder, not the SysWOW64 folder, where the 32 bit drivers are found, yes? Isn't that the "wrong" location to use I've been reading? Or are System DSNs different from a User DSN?
BIG thanks for the replies. I owe you beers!!!!! -
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. -

Failed to open the connection. ReportName
I have recently re-installed Crystal Reports Server XI on a server after a disk failure. I had a backup of my CMS database. I reinstalled the Crystal Servwer without atttaching this database, however crystal did not create a new db so I attached my old one.
I have deleted all my old ODBC connections and recreated them with new names and then reconnected my reports in Crystal Reports XI using the "Set Datasource Location" option and the report works fine.But as soon as I try to view it after uploading it as an object onto the server, I get the above error.
Any help would be appreciated.I am tagging into this unanswered question as well because I think I have a similar issue. In my case I have a report which runs correctly in Crystal Reports designer but when I move it to the scheduler it fails on a "Failed to connect" to the report. In have used "Set data location" to no avail. When I go to Admin Tools and look at the complete list of datasources for all my reports this particular datasource is listed twice. The group of reports under one of the datasources works correctly. The reports listed under the second datasource all fail. The two datsources are spelled exactly the same and when I sompare the database details for a successfull and a failing report using this datasource they are the same (in the console and in infoview).
I have also checked the ODBC connections on the Crystalserver and there is only one occureence.
Any ideas?

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.

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
