SAP Crystal Report 2013 - Connection error with Universe

Hi,
I've trying to connect Crystal Report 2013 with Universe but I'm getting below error. Please can someone help how can I resolve this error.

.Unx Universes are Not supported by the legacy CR Designers (including CR 2013).
For that you have the new CR for Enterprise.
Does a WebI report against the same Universe work fine?
Do other universes (.unv only) work fine from CR 2013?

Hi - have you installed the SAP Integration Kit, as mentioned here? http://scn.sap.com/community/bi-platform/businessobjects-bi-for-sap/blog/2008/02/19/businessobjects-and-sap-part-2
Separately, I recommend going with Crystal for Enterprise with BW; lately SAP has said to only use Crystal Reports 2013 if you need more functionality with SAP ERP than Crystal for Enterprise

Crystal Reports 2013 OLAP connection server types

I wrote a Crystal Reports 2013 report using the OLAP Cube Report Wizard. In the wizard, it prompted for OLAP data and Select Cube was chosen. In the OLAP connection browser window, Add was chosen. In Server type, Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Analysis Services 10.0 was chosen. The report was then finished and worked fine. However, on a different PC, that Server type is not found if trying to re-create. Can anyone tell me what client tools must be installed on a PC for the Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Analysis Services 10.0 to show in the Server type of an OLAP connection. We tried installing just the OLE DB provider and now it shows under OLE DB connections but not under the OLAP Connections.
As an added question, does anyone know what must be installed on the Business Objects 4.0 server in order to publish the same report using an OLAP connection to Bus Objects? We have tried creating an OLAP Connection that works fine but the report does not seem to be using that type connection. I'm guessing it needs the client tool that will answer the first question.

Hi Nate
I'm a little unsure of where this is not working - WIN 7? MS 2003 Server?
What's the font problem you saw?
What database are you connecting to?
Is the ProvideX" ODBC driver supported on WIN 7 / WIN 2003?
Can you connect to the database via ODBC using any other software? I's like you to try SQLConn, see what that tells you.

Cannot load report from server in Crystal Reports 2013 Viewer

Hello,
I am having trouble opening a report that is hosted on a Crystal Reports Server (2013) from the Crystal Viewer. I've created and uploaded the reports using the report designer (version 2013). The reports have been uploaded using the "Save As -> Enterprise" to save to my enterprise server. This part works fine. I then navigated to the Crystal Reports Viewer to open my report (that I just uploaded w/ the designer) from the server. Depending on the report, one of two things happens:
1.) I get a loading bar at the bottom right of the screen that says "Operation in progress . . ." followed by an error message:
Unable to Refresh Report
A problem occurred while refreshing on the server. The report may not be configured properly for refresh.
Please contact your server administrator. (me)
2.) I get a loading bar at the bottom right of the screen that says "Refreshing <file name of the report> (<server name>)" followed by... nothing. The loading bar goes away and nothing happens. It goes back to the screen that shows when the application first loads (blank canvas).
I've taken some basic troubleshooting steps to try and rule out any potential issues that came to mind, but I've not been successful.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

SAP tab in Crystal Reports 2013 issue

We are using SAP Crystal Reports 2013 SP3 to build reports on BEX queries (BW 7.2). Creating a report via 'File' --> New connection --> BW MDX driver works fine, I can select bex queries & cubes and see the data. However SAP provided tab 'SAP' does not work as expected. When adding a new bex query using SAP--> Create new report from a query, I can see the list of queries and select one but it does not open and throws the following error -
"An error occurred while generating a new report templete.
No error"
Using the "File" option any change to the .rpt file forces BO admin to update "DB logon" information in CMC (currently i cannot save .rpt file directly on enterprise from Crystal client due to some issue) and we want to avoid this kind of maintainence using SAP authentication provided by using SAP tab, also the Crysal report prompts when run from BI launch pad request for prompt values twice (once for the report and once to pull list of values for each prompt) which can be avoided using SAP tab. I thought access to dev BW server is fine since the "File" tab works fine. Our BASIS team confirmed BOBJ dev servers have access to BW gateway. Am I missing something here, please help me with your experience and ideas to troubleshoot this as the only solution i could google was from a 2012 SAP recommended article to fix reginfo configuration files on SAP server
I reinstalled Crystal Reports client twice to make sure intallation was not the issue.
Thanks
GORO.

Hi Everyone,
I have a question regarding Crystal report 2013 backward compatibility.
Say I use CR2013 to view, modify, and save my CR reports on XI R2.
Is that possible? Is it view-only function that I can use?
Correct me if I asked the question the wrong way.

You won't be able to connect to the XI R2 repository from the CR 2013 designer.

Modify SQL query in Crystal Reports 2013

Bonjour,
Je voulais savoir s'il était possible de modifier la requête SQL dans Crystal Reports 2013, car les bases de données de notre application pour bibliothèque utilise un format de date particulier qu'il nous faut corriger directement dans la requête SQL.
Merci pour vos informations.
Cordialement
Claude Marcilly

Hello,
I wanted to know if it was possible to modify the SQL query in Crystal Reports 2013. Databases of our application library indeed use a particular date format that we need to fix directly into the SQL query.
Thank you for your information.
Best regards
Claude Marcilly
Cannes - France

Hi Claude,
If you are creating reports using tables then go in Database menu and click on show SQL query, this will show the SQL generated by crystal reports. Now go in database expert and expend your connection and double click on Add Command and past the query which was generated by Crystal and try to modify the date format and click OK.
Now you need to redesign your reports based on Add command.
or
If your reports datasource is Add command you can directly go in add command and change it.

Crystal Reports 2013 java-error "java.lang.ClassCastException: class com.crystaldecisions..." when promoting

Hi,
when promoting "Crystal Report 2013" report (with data connectivity BW MDX Query) from BO DEV to BO PROD with BO Promotion Mgmt (LCM), we get the following error message in LCM jobs history:
Resolution Status=Overwritten, Dependency Status=All the required dependencies are included.,
Commit Status=Commit attempted and failed.,
Promotion Status=Failure : Object promoted. Update failed.
Error: java.lang.ClassCastException: class com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.lib.ByteArray:java.net.URLClassLoader@1d634758 incompatible
with class com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.lib.PropertyBag:java.net.URLClassLoader@1d634758
The report itself is present on BO PROD, but the overwrite (BW DEV MDX Query-> BW PROD MDX Query) is not applied, so report connectivity still points to the BW Query on the development system :-( .
Moreover, the overwrite itself is detected when the job is "test promoted" ("active overwrite").
Before, we successfully were able to transport crystal reports 2013 with overwrite (the connection then pointed to BW PROD). No idea yet what suddenly changed that...
Any ideas what causes the error and what can fix it (no posts found, no SAP note, google also no hits)?
Best regards
Florian Pitschi

Update:
After more investigation, it looks as if the BO Server "CrystalReports2013ReportApplicationServer"
from time to time has an issue - not only when promoting, but also when viewing publications that contain Crystal Report documents or when executing them, the java class error or similar issue is thrown.
Did sb face similar behaviour and knows what is the root cause for "CrystalReports2013ReportApplicationServer" not working probably and throwing the java-class error? - it was running fine for several months, now, the class error showed up twice in one month.
We need to find out what is causing the issue (aleady checked tomcat and BO-logfiles...).
Best Regards
Florian

How to Save/Transport Crystal Reports 2013 reports in ECC (not BW)

Hi,
we are using Crystal Report 2013 and have reports which are based on ALV´s and SAP Tables directly.
I want to know if it´s possible to save the reports directly in the ECC system, with transport connection etc. and maybe the possibility to translate the reports later in another language.
I know the way when we have reports based on a BW system, there it is really easy and integrated.
But in this case we are on a normal ECC System, not a BW Enviroment.
At the moment we have the report rpt files locally.
Has someone already done this and or knows a tutorial what steps are to do? (connection, package, roles)
Kindly regards
Max

Crystal Reports 2013 on SAP BW

Hi Gurus,
We are trying to establish connection between Crystal Reports 2013 and SAP BW 7.4. Could you please let us know whether we can create Crystal Reports on following BW objects or not?
-BW BEx Reports
-BW Cubes
-BW DSOs
-BW Master data Info Objects
-BW Multi Provider
Regards
Viswanath

Hi Manoj,
Using the SAP BW MDX Query driver, you can design formatted Crystal reports that are based on data that is stored in SAP NetWeaver Business Warehouse (BW). You base these reports either on queries that are created with SAP Business Explorer (BEx) Query Designer, or directly on the cubes in BW.
See this : Crystal Reports 2011: Connect to an SAP BW data source
Thanks,
DJ
