Authentication issues on Windows 7 with Internet Explorer 8 (Crystal 2008)

Hi,
We are in the process of migrating from Windows XP to Windows 7 (with Internet Explorer 8).
I have noticed that a web application which depends on Crystal 2008 is behaving differently in the new environment. For example, when I try to load a report I get this error:
Access to report file denied. Another program may be using it.
I know that this error can be caused by a permissions problem on the Windows temp folder, and I know there are various ways of pinpointing the exact permissions problem and various ways of resolving if that's the case. The fix that worked for us in Windows XP does not seem to work in Windows 7. My gut feeling is that IE is passing credential in some way differently from how it did before.
Since many aspects of security are so different in Windows 7 compared with XP, I was hoping to find some general guidelines from SAP/Crystal re: how to deploy or configure the client/server in this environment.
Are there any general guidelines available?
Thank you for any help... shannon

Hi Shannon,
Not really, CR assumes it can access all of it's dependencies so it is a permission issue. Other than the usual config issues with IIS, full access to the      emp folder, full permissions on the Viewer folder, setting the framework in App pool correctly, etc.
Do you have Service Pack 3 installed for Cr 2008 and the latest Fix Pack 3.5?

  • Extra blank window remaining with Internet Explorer

    I have a Flex Application and am using FlashHelp for
    context-sensitive help. I am launching FlashHelp with the following
    call:
    ExternalInterface.call('RH_ShowHelp(0,"/ic-help/index.htm",HH_HELP_CONTEXT,66)');
    With Firefox, we don't have any problems. With Internet
    Explorer 6 and 7, there is an extra blank window that hides in the
    Windows Taskbar and never closes. The URL for the unwanted window
    is, "localhost/ic-help/whcsh_home.htm"
    Am I doing something wrong here, or could the problem be in
    the way the help content author is generating the FlashHelp zip
    file? Is anyone else seeing this problem? Thanks...

    Or you deploy the tweaked whcsh_home.htm and then, after
    generating each time, delete whcsh_home.htm so when you deploy,
    your tweaked file is not overwritten. But you're right about the
    "someone having to remember" part if this is your approach.
    We use Subversion for source control, so what I do (to get
    around a couple of problems) is generate to one folder, then
    publish to a second (both local). That second folder is the one
    under version control. The key here is that as far as RH is
    concerned, whcsh_home.htm didn't change, so it's not published to
    the second folder. Therefore, my tweaked version stays out in the
    repository and never gets overwritten. Don't know if this applies
    to your situation at all, though.

  • NTLM problem with Internet explorer/windows

    Hello,
    I am sorry if this post is not in the correct forum but i really don't know where to put it.
    I need some help with this issue from my work as I am out of ideas and I don¹t find any similar issues on your lists/emails/faqs.
    I am using a server with CentOS6 and Squid 3.1.10 as a proxy. One of my teams needs to access to ISS 7 trough Squid for test and development purposes using only NTLM (required only NTLM). Squid server is accessing the AD and credentials are working. All
    tests performed with Wbinfo are successful. The access to the IIS ntlm site is successful from Firefox and Safari (not windows OS), all returning the message ³you are authenticated using NTLM². I try to perform the same test on several machines with Windows
    7 and Internet Explorer, most of them 11, and always get the message “Proxy isn’t responding”. GPO was altered on the windows for NTLM, ISS site is requesting NTLM with extended protection and kernel=mode authentication off. All suggestions from Microsoft
    were followed regarding NTLM configurations. 
    Somebody as any ideas please??
    Thank you

    Hi,
    By default, if a client try connecting to a server supporting LM and NTLM, it'll adopt LM Authentication. So, please check in registry if LM and NTLM v2 are disabled.
    Open registry
    Locate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa.
    Add a new DWORD value named LMCompatibilityLevel
    Set its vaule to 2. For more details, please click
    here
    Close registry
    Reboot your system.

  • Known Issue: WebHelp on Windows 8 and Internet Explorer 10

    Hello all,
    I noticed on the Known Issues and bugs page for RoboHelp 10 (http://helpx.adobe.com/robohelp/kb/known-issues-rh-10.html) that there is a problem viewing webhelp on Windows 8 and Internet Explorer 10. Does anyone have further information about this problem and possible solutions?
    Thank you!

    See the link, it says IE10, and you said you are using IE9.
    That message suggests your upload or the call to the help is broken. Is this when the help is called from an app or does it happen if you open the help direct?
    Try one of the sample projects. Click Open on the RoboHelp Starter page and then click Samples in the ribbon on the left.

  • Interaction with Internet Explorer

    Can I somehow interact with Internet Explorer with/from a J2SE application.
    I am looking for a way to open a URL from my Java application, and then enter a username and password in the login form on that URL.
    What about Java Native Interface?
    If it can not be done with a J2SE application, What about a J2SE Applet ?
    I am trying to develop a Single Sign-On mechanism/procedure using Java.

    I actually worked on something similar for a former dot-bomb. The issue you will run into is that there is no common standard for logons. Some forms will use 'user' others 'userid' others 'email', likewise for 'password', 'pw', 'pwd', etc. So, you will have to maintain a database of the various sites' login form submission values. We have not even started to touch the ease and frequency with which sites can change the URL used for authentication. So, it becomes a 'n' problem. The more sites you support, the more useful your service will be. However, the more sites you support, the higher your maintenance costs will be.
    The one interesting workaround we did think of was to register at every site we supported (at the time, nearly everything was free, so this was relatively viable). We would then have a nightly batch process that would attempt to authenticate to each site automatically. Any HTTP response other than 200 would be deemed a failure, and someone would have to look into it the next morning.
    So, on a technical level, the solution is really simple. On a practical level, you will be very busy.
