Running a crystal report from a local machine

HI guys i'm hoping someone can help me.
I have created a silverlight / asp WEB application that has a crystal report in visual studio 2010.
The problem i have is that i've deployed my website to a shared webhost that does not support crystal.
Until i find a webhost that supports the new version of crystal reports for VS 2010, is there a way i can allow the user to run the report manually from their desktop?
I noticed that installing the crystal reports runtimes and giving them the .rpt file does not allow them to open the file. Is there any other way?
Thanks in advance

Hello,
Moved your post to the .NET SDK forum where 2010 is the only place it is supported, for now.
Mmmmmm. There is a deployment package you can use to get CR runtime onto a WEB server but unless you can find a host who will allow you to do so you'll have to convert your app to a Windows application. Not too much work but there are definitely differences.
To deploy your WEB app to a desktop each user would have to install and configure IIS. Although on Windows 7 with VS 2010 installed there is an interact WEB server, but I haven't looked into it that much or know what the licensing rules are around it. It may just be something VS 2010 installs and supports and you can't deploy.
Sorry I have not heard of anyone either being the product is so new....
Thank you
Don

  • Data missing while running a crystal report from SAP B1 2007A

    Dear All,
    I am facing an issue that is if i run a report from SAP B1 using Crystal reports AddOn, it misses out some data.
    Few Initial pages and a last page appears in the report. But when i run the same report using Crystal reports Designer it shows the actual number of pages. I have tested the above discussed issue on the server & workstation machines.

    Dear All,
    I would like to explain the above posted problem in detail. I need your generous help, I am facing an issue that is for Crystal Reports which are based on 'Financial Templates' data is missing out. For Example, If i run the report using 'Crystal Reports Designer' it is showing the whole Financial Template based on 5 pages, but if I try to run it from 'SAP Business One'
    using 'Crystal Reports AddOn' it is missing out the data e.g. it is showing Page 1 and then Page 4 & 5.
    Page No. 2 & 3 is missed out. For your information it was running fine from the past two months now I am
    facing issues in running it. Rest of the reports are running fine.
    I have tried reinstalling the Crystal Reports Runtime and Crystal Reports AddOn for SAP B1 on
    Client machines, but the problem is not resolved yet.

  • Run time for Report saved in local machine and Database

    Hello,
    I have a report that runs in 5 seconds in Discoverer Desktop. When I saved the same report in database(File->Save As - in Database) it takes more than 40 mins. I haven't made a single change to the report before saving to Database. Has anybody come across this? Please help me find the problem.
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    this is just how the Internet works and also how file displays work. Everything you view, listen to etc. in your browser gets saved as a temporary file on your computer. You can't even view a simple html page without having it saved on your computer for a short time. I can't think of anything to prevent this from happening.
    Also, if you generated the file yourself, how is that a security threat to your client? He should be sure the file is safe.
    Best regards!

  • Run Crystal Report From Forms

    Dear all,
    Can i run a crystal report from forms10g ? if i yes then how can i do it
    Thanks in advance

    I have to be honest I don't know much about crystal reports.
    In addition to the suggestion of Francois, if you can access/run it via a URL you could use the web.show_document procedure with the url containing all your required parameters, which is similar to some of the method available to run oracle reports.
    eg. web.show_document(http://ServerNameDetails?parameter1=1&parameter2=hello,'_blank');

  • Database error when trying to view Crystal Report from InfoView

    I am receiving the following error when I try to view or run a Crystal Report from the InfoView.  The report is based on an SAP InfoSet.
    "Failed to load database information."
    The report data can be refreshed with no trouble from within the Crystal Reports designer on my local machine, but the error occurs after it is published to the InfoView.  The same error appears when trying to import into Excel using LiveOffice.
    Server details:
    -Edge 3.1
    -Windows 2003 64-bit
    -SAP Integration kit installed
    Local Crystal Reports machine details:
    -Windows XP
    -SAP Integration kit installed
    -Crystal Reports 2008
    My steps to troubleshoot so far:
    -Checked Database Logon details in CMC for the report.  Username and password are entered correctly.
    -Cycled all CrystalReports background services off and on again from the CMC
    -Rebooted server
    Have I missed anything?  Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi,
    do you have any connectivity from your EDGE to the SAP System ? Like can you import roles or run a WebI ?

    hi
    try something like this.
    DECLARE
    charWinHandle VARCHAR2(50);
    numWinHandle NUMBER;
    BEGIN Set_Application_Property(Cursor_Style,'BUSY');
    charWinHandle := Get_Item_Property('Control.Rep',Window_Handle);

    the "Crystal_CrystalCtrl.ReportFileName" method call. Also, the connection string shown
    assumes that you will use the current USER and PASSWORD for the Form.
    - To make the above Form generic so that you can run any Crystal report from it, then create
    a parameter for the report name and pass it to the Form using CALL_FORM from any other Form.
    Then just replace the file name with the passed parameter.
    -. Run the Form
    If its correct/helpful please mark it thanks.

  • Error while running Crystal Reports from application

    Hi,
    I am getting the below error when I try to run Crystal Reports from my application.
    There are no Page Servers connected to the Cache Server or all connected Page Servers are disabled or all connected Page Servers are not part of the specified server group. Please try to reconnect later.
    I am able to preview the reports in CMC and Infoview, but when I try to run the same report via my application the above error pops up.
    Sometimes I get a different error:
    The Page Server you are trying to connect to is not accessible. Please contact your system administrator.
    Looks like some configuration settings are missing/ corrupted.
    I tried to look in a number of websites... tried few workarounds, but none seems to be working.
    Any help is highly appreciated.

  • Problem to run the Crystal report inside from SAP B1 based on SQL views.

    Hello,
    I have a problem to run my Crystal report inside from SAP B1 which is based on SQL views.And the SQL views are stored in a separate database in SQL server.The error which i am getting is saying the the tablename does not exist.What i need to do in order to sort this problem.
    Great if somebody can help me to sort out this so that i can run my report based on SQL views stored on separate database other than SAP databases inside from SAP B1.
    Edited by: rozenagrawal on Apr 19, 2011 11:51 AM

    Try using a SQL synonym in your company database for the views outside the company database. I don't know if SBO will let you get away with it, but its worth a shot.
    If your company database is MyCompany and you have a view called MyView in Views database, assuming the view belongs to schema dbo, and you want the synonym to belong to dbo schema in your company database, run this:
    Use MyCompany
    go
    create synonym dbo.OutsiderView for
    Views.dbo.MyView
    go
    select * from OutsiderView
    The select statement should return the contents of MyView in the Views database while you are connected to your MyCompany database.
    For more info, see the Books Online for MSSQL on topic synonym.
    You will need to change your CR options to include displaying synonyms along with tables, views, etc. You may also need to grant select to B1 users.

  • When deleting running crystal report from BOE CMC, it leaves Oracle thread?

    hi,  Yesterday, we discovered an anomaly.  From BOE's CMC, I deleted a running Crystal Report instance. I believed that this would "cancel" the running report. However, later, it produced a message.  It apparently kept on running in Oracle until it finished.
    My question: when I delete a job from BOE's CMC, what else must we do to cancel it from continuing in Oracle? Apparently, it continued to be a "thread" in Oracle.
    What additional steps should I take or are there any setup steps?  Thank you.
    Our BOE version (copied from the CMC about screen) is: Product: 12.1.0 © 2008 Business Objects (or Product Version:      12.2.0.290).
    Thank you,

    I'd just been trying instructions in SAP note: 1407795 when this reply came through.... I can confirm this worked for me.
    The error codes I found in the Windows Event viewer, both yesterday and today are listen below:
    RCIRAS0240
    RCIRAS0622
    RCIRAS0567
    RCIRAS0244
    The issues that are described in this post and the ones I have seen first-hand  when the screen hangs when viewing this report on-demand, or the report running for a longer than expected time when scheduled, are covered by the above error codes. 
    A known cause of the issues you are experiencing is that when these particular reports were created, a network printer was specified as the default printer, this printer may now either be unavailable, IP address may have changed, etc.
    There do seem to be two options available:
    Option 1 - Remove the printer driver dependency
    Open this report in the Crystal Reports Designer.
    Under the File menu, click on Page Setup.
    Select the No Printer option.
    Option 2 - Add or correct the printer that the report is designed with
    Open the Report in the Crystal Reports Designer
    Under the File menu, click on Page Setup
    Make not of the printer that is listed in the Page Setup dialog
    Log on to the BusinessObjects Enterprise Server that houses the Crystal Reports Processing Servers.
    Make sure you log in as the user account that runs the Crystal Reports services.  This is generally the account that runs the Service Intelligence Agent (SIA)
    Go to Control Panel and click on Printers
    Ensure that the same printer is configured on the server that is used in the Crystal Report
    In the printer already exists, try removing it and re-adding it.

  • Error while running the Discoverer report from the command line.

    Hi All,
    I've to run a discoverer report from command line and export the results in xls/html on to my local machine. This report I've to run it as batch and scheduled it.
    I have a parameterized worksheet and this has to be run from command line specifying the parameter value I wanted to run the report for. I do not get any results. Here is the command line I am using.
    dis51usr /connect user/password@database /opendb "TIMS-PCJ status Report" /sheet "TIMS observation status report (based on performed date)" /parameter "Test Number" '40351' /parameter "From Date" '05-MAY-2008' /parameter "To Date" '06-MAY-2008' /export HTML "C:\DISCOVERER_REPORT_SCHEDULING\DIS_OUTPUT\PCJStOutputinHTML123"
    I even added the TO_DATE conversion for the parameters and also gave the format of the date as 'DD_MON_YYYY'.
    Discoverer Desktop opened up, logged in and gets terminated saying 'Oracle Discoverer Desktop has encountered a problem and need to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.'
    Please anyone reply me.
    Regards & Thanks,

    Hi Gayathri,
    Try changing your parameter names to be a single word. (Change "Test Number" to Test_Number).
    Does the report run fine when run through Desktop for the same parameter values? Which version of Discoverer are you using?
    Thanks.

  • Crystal report error on Target Machine

    We have to provide application exe to our clients. The application is developed in Visual Studio.Net 2010 and by using SAP crystal report CRforVS_13_0. Client must be able to fire reports on their target machine on which the Dot Net framework and u201CCRforVS_redist_install_64bit_13_0_1u201C run time utility is installed. But it gives a crystal report error on the target machine.
    Our development and target machines have Win 7 Professional, 64-bit OS installed.
    Kindly provide us with an appropriate run time version for target machine in order to fire reports or any other solution in order to make our project work on target machine.
    Thanks!

    Thanks a lot Don for your valuable suggestions.
    We have already taken care of the points which you mentioned in your reply on development side. Also, we have downloaded crystal report from the link which you posted but on DEPLOYMENT side we are unable to run reports from our application.
    It gives the notification when we try to install crystal report on a target machine as "You must have visual studio 2010 installed in order to install the crystal report".
    The DEPLOYMENT problem we are facing is in RUNTIME environment on TARGET machine.  Our TRAGET machine has properly installed Win 7 Professional 64 bit,  .NET Framework Ver 4 and CRforVS_redist_install_64bit_13_0_1 . We also have properly installed application on this machine. We got no errors while installing any of the above. The problem starts when we fire a report on target machine from the application.
    We get the error as "The type initializer for 'CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument' threw an exception"
    So, we are looking for an appropriate RUN TIME version of Crystal Report which can be installed on the target machine to fire reports (where visual studio 2010 is not installed).
    Please help suggest an exact version to download for target machine and the steps if it has a specific procedure.
    Thank you!

    Hi,
    If you have any issues with Crystal reports .Net SDK's then please post your questions in [Crystal Reports .NET SDK forum|SAP Crystal Reports, version for Visual Studio;.
    That forum is monitored by qualified technicians and you will get a faster response there. Also, all .NET SDK queries remain in one place and thus can be easily searched in one place.
    Thank you for your understanding,
    In order to run the reports on the server where Crystal Reports is not installed, you need to install the runtimes of the Crystal Reports on the server.
    Runtimes of Crystal Reports contains all the requiered dlls of CR to run the reports where CR in not installed.
    Link to download CR runtimes - click [here|https://websmp130.sap-ag.de/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/bobj_download/main.htm]
    The Wiki [here|https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/BOBJ/CrystalReportsforVisualStudio.NETRuntimeDistribution-Versions9.1to12.0] is currently the best resource for CR.NET Runtime information.

  • Crystal reports from command line

    Post Author: DrewJ
    CA Forum: General
    Hi,
    I need to run Crystal reports from the command line.
    Does anyone know how to pass parameter arguments when launching the application?
    I have tried cr32w.exe c:\reports\report.rpt arg="099909"
    (which launches the right report, but does not pass in the arg) 
    Is it possible?
    Thanks in advance,
    Drew Johnston

    Hi,
    Thanks for the reply.  The application would not be on the same server as the machine.  So if I used the command that you gave me would that actually run the report (ie refresh the data and then save the report ,as instructed in the settings, on to the network location).  Or would it just open up the report.  Also, how would I send parameters to the report, eg Dates or Status.
    This is the scenario.  At the moment a user would input data on to database via an external applicaion.  After inputting all the data, they would then have to log into Crystal Infoview.  Navigate to the report.  They would then click on the Schedule hyperlink.  They would change the parameters eg Start Date and End Date.   And then press the Schedule button.  The report would then refresh the data, and as specified in the Destination, it would write out to a network location.
    So we want the external app to write a command line prompt, so that the user did not have to log onto Crystal at all.  The application would send the relevant parameters and run the crystal report automatically without the user having to log into Crystal at all.
    Regards,
    Prakash
