Printing adobe reports in web database

I am trying to print reports from my school database software. I have tried 3 internet browsers, turned off all pop up blockers, and I still can't print to screen a report in a pdf. I am trying to isolate the problem. On my pc, just hold the control key and click preview to pull up the report. Is this a problem with adobe and Mac OS X

Let me see if I understand your question... are you trying to print a pdf from a web browser? This can be done easily using either Safari or (my preference) Firefox and Acrobat Reader 10.1.3. You'll have to install the Reader software which will install an Adobe plug-in that will let you save, print, etc. You will have to run Firefox in 32-bit mode, however, to ensure compatibility. Safari can, I think, run in 64-bit mode.
You could also install the third-party PDF Browser plug-in at http://www.schubert-it.com/pluginpdf/
I'm not sure that I've answered your question or not - if not, could you be a little bit more descriptive?

Unable to print crystal report over web using ActiveX Control

Post Author: jimmyp
CA Forum: General
We have a problem with printing crystal report over web using ActiveX Control. When clicking print button, it only shows a blank dialog web crystal viewer page without any error. The page just simply hangs. We installed the PrintControl DLL and enable all the security setting for ActiveX Control for IE. It still does not print. Does anyone know why?
Environment.
Bundle Crystal Report v10
Asp.net 2.0
IE 6.0 or higher.
Appreciate for your help.

When Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) is enabled, using the ActiveX control to print reports from a Crystal 10 DHTML viewer results in the following error message:
"A communication error occurred, printing will be stopped."
How can this error message be resolved?
Resolution
This is a known issue with Crystal Reports 10 and Crystal Enterprise 10 viewers and has been tracked. The Track ID is ADAPT00282199.
This error occurs due to the receiving application performing a case-sensitive check for the HTTPS request header value "ON". When a sender application sends the value as "on" in lower case, the error occurs. The update below changes the receiving application to be case-insensitive.

Printing Crystal report from web

I am using crystal report 8.5 and Coldfusion MX 6.1
I open my report in a blank page. Everything show up
properly.
However, in my report, I have 12 pages. When I print it it
only show up as 1-2 pages. I notice that on screen, when I click
next ( to go to the next page of the report ), the url show up as
whatever my path is and the word "report" + the page -1 + htm
eg. If I am on page 2 of the report, my url would be
\\localhost\mywebfolder\report1.htm
Anyone have the same problem? Any solution?
* I am thinking of taking off the grouping in the report, see
if that make any different!

Hiya,
It isn't clear how you are calling the report (cfreport,
location, etc.,).
With 8.5 professional and higher, there is report server; 8.5
enforces the five instance connection license that the 8.0 version
implied and the 7.0 version didn't have at all. This methodology
allows for using the Crystal web report engine which supports the
use of an ActiveX viewer or Java Viewer.
I have an annoyance where an application that has run for
more than five years using the ActiveX viewer used to run without
prompting for database credentials but now does.
Take a look here for some hints
http://www.vordesigns.com/Portal/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=154
I can send you the page cfm pages I use but it references a
table of report names, you will have to do a little of your own
debugging to get it to work in your enviroment.
There is also a topic post in March from me

How to print history report without refreshing?

Hi,
Does someone tell me how to print history report (deski, webi, and crystal) without refreshing via Java API?
I could not find in Java doc and Developer Library.
thanks,
Tak

Hi,
It looks like that you wan to print Report's Instance and refering it as history report. If you want to print Instance of report (CR, Webi or DeskI), frist get the SI_ID, so that we can access that instance and then we have to use appropriate controller to print the report (instance)
for CR, use BOE/RAS SDK
for Webi and DeskI, use REBean SDK

Web printing crystal report hangs on report.PrintOptions.PrinterName

Hello,
I have a report web page that displays a crystal report. I have added a modal popup to allow them to select their printers. When I go to print the report is hangs on the line of rpt.PrintOptions.PrinterName = li.Text. The printer names are added to the list box using a Java applet.
Here is the Sub it is running.
    Public Sub PrintReports()
        rpt = CType(Session("rpt"), ReportDocument)
        For Each li As ListItem In Me.lbPrinters.Items
            If li.Selected AndAlso li.Text <> "" Then
                rpt.PrintOptions.PrinterName = li.Text
                rpt.PrintOptions.PrinterDuplex = CType(Me.cboDuplex.SelectedItem.Value, CrystalDecisions.Shared.PrinterDuplex)
                rpt.PrintToPrinter(CInt(Me.txtNumOfCopies.Text), True, CInt(Me.txtPageStartRange.Text), CInt(Me.txtPageRangeEnd.Text))
            End If
        Next
        Me.mpePrint.Hide()
    End Sub
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Patrick

Sounds like you're trying to implement server side printing in your app. Which is fine, except the CR ActiveX print is client side printing. Just in case you're interested, the way to enable activeX print is to go to the property of the CR viewer and find "PrintMode". It will more than likely be defaulted to PDF. Change that to ActiveX.
Now, back to the issue. This may still be a matter of permissions - essentially what Adam was after. Probably the easiest way to determine that is to use the [Process Monitor|http://technet.microsoft.com/en-ca/sysinternals/bb896645.aspx] utility. Once you have the log, search it for "Access Denied" messages.

Web-Intelligence Reports against Access Database

We are unable to run Web-Intelligence reports against Microsoft Access Database which resides on a network drive
Able to create Unvierse, and Universe Connection to the Access Database through ODBC, but unable to run Web-I reports, when tried we get the following error
A database error occured. The database error text is: [Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] '(unknown)' is not a valid path. Make sure that the path name is spelled correctly and that you are connected to the server on which the file resides.. (WIS 10901)
Did anyone tried to develop Web-I reports from Access database on a network drive, if so I request you to provide us details and your findings
Thank you

We run the designer on the same machine where BOBJ runs and also on other client machines, from disigner it works fine,
The service account which is used to run BO Application Services has full control access to the network location and folder where the database resides
We can run / refresh Desk-I and Web-I rich client but cannot run web-i reports against access database
Thanks

Access Web Database - Select record and make report with all associated records

Hey everyone,
Right now I'm in the middle of trying to convert an Access client database to be web compatible and I'm running into some problems. For this question, I think I may need to explain a little bit about the database:
The database I'm making is designed to store information about music rights for different songs. The users can input information about writers, producers, organizations, properties, businesses - which is stored all in different related tables. Then, when a
user inputs a song, they choose which writers, produces, organizations, etc. are affiliated with that song.
What I'm trying to do is make a report where you can choose a writer from the list of all the writers and then produce a report with all of the songs by that writer.
I was able to do this in the Access client by making a report that, when opened would trigger (using the On Open event) a form to open where you would choose a writer from a combo box and then click a button. When the button was clicked, it would use the value
in the combo box in a query, which would find all of the songs by that writer and then open up the report which would have the writer and all of their songs on it.
Because web reports don't have many event options and web queries are very limited, I have not found a way to make this report.
Any help at all would be greatly appreciated!

Hi,
I found that you've cross post the quesion on our Answer forum, are you satisfiled the reply from there?
