Cannot install Crystal 2008 SP1 on Vista Workstations

When I try to install SP1 for Crystal 2008 the install stop part way through with "The feathure you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable."  It seems to be looking for CrystalReports.msi.  When you give it the path to the directory where the file can be found is give the same error message.
Thanks

Hi
The SP1 patches are currently not available until May because they are being re-released. The refreshed version will try to prevent your situation from occurring.
In the meantime try downloading SP1 for CR2008 from the link mentioned in the Whitepaper at [https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/702b3642-7e14-2c10-6484-857ffb4319d7]
Thanks

  • Prompts to install Crystal 2008 SP1 each time I double-click .rpt file

    Every time I want to open a report (.rpt) file from Windows Explorer, I get a message box stating:
    Preparing to install...
    Followed by another message box:
    Please wait while Windows configures Crystal 2008 SP1
    Followed by another message box:
    The feature you are trying to use is on a CD-ROM or other removable disk that is not available.
    Insert the 'Crystal Reports 2008 SP1' disk and click OK.
    I select cancel at this point (I've already got Crystal Reports 2008 SP1 installed on my machine).
    After I select cancel, the following error appears:
    Error 1706.  No valid source could be found for product Crystal Reports 2008 SP1. The Windows installer cannot continue.
    I click OK and the report does not open.
    If I start Crystal Reports itself, then select File, Open and select the report to open, it opens fine (without error).
    The version of Crystal Reports (from Help, About Crystal Reports) is:  Version 12.1.0.892
    How can I resolve this without searching for the Crystal 2008 SP1 files (which were downloaded from the SAP/BO website).

    Hi Nancy,
    I've seen this happen usually when Windows Office has also been installed. The installer gets confused as to what should be installed or some dependency is missing. Not sure exactly what causes it.
    Go into Control and Add/Remove Programs and try doing a repair install for both CR and SP1. Then open up Explorer and click on Tools, Folder Options and then File Type. Scroll down to RPT and click on Change or Restore. Ther main be something missing from the File type association.
    Be sure to do this when you are logged in as local Administrator and/or your account is also configured to be part of the Local Admin group.
    Thank you

    Apple offer this advice which I guess is not much help to you as you have Norton:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1609?viewlocale=en_US
    I wonder if it is worth looking in the your firewall configuration>>Programs and deleting any entry for Bonjour - in the hope that you will be prompted to allow it or not when you do the install, or maybe adding it back with permit all.
    But someone came up with another possible solution at the end of this thread:

  • Uninstalling Crystal 2008 SP1 merge module disables Crystal 2008 Designer

    Hi,
    I've come across a problem when uninstalling an application that includes the Crystal 2008 SP1 merge module, where Crystal Reports 2008 SP1 Developer is also installed on the machine.
    The uninstallation of an application containing this merge module will trigger the uninstall code in the merge module - I would have expected this module to take into account shared files and decrement the SharedDlls registry count for relevant .dlls etc, so that files still used by other applications are not affected or uninstalled.
    However it stops Crystal 2008 SP1 Developer from working, no message is displayed when attempting to launch the application (apart from in the Event Log), but following some investigation it appears a number of files and folders are removed by the merge module that shouldn't be, as follows:
    C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86\boezlib.dll
    C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86\uf12manager.dll
    C:\Program Files\Business Objects\Common\4.0\crystalreportviewers12\js\crviewer\images\
    C:\Program Files\Business Objects\Common\4.0\crystalreportviewers12\js\dhtmllib\images\
    C:\Program Files\Business Objects\Common\4.0\crystalreportviewers12\js\dhtmllib\samples\
    C:\Program Files\Business Objects\Common\4.0\crystalreportviewers12\js\dhtmllib\validator\
    C:\Program Files\Business Objects\Common\4.0\crystalreportviewers12\js\log4javascript\
    C:\Program Files\Business Objects\Common\4.0\crystalreportviewers12\js\MochiKit\
    C:\Program Files\Business Objects\Common\4.0\crystalreportviewers12\prompting\
    There could be others, but these are the files / folders I've identified so far, and restoring these files / folders appears to get Crystal Developer up and running and able to run reports.
    Does anybody know how to prevent this, or if this is a known issue and planned to be addressed in a future release of the merge modules?

    Hi,
    Thanks for your feedback Henry.
    I've downloaded the SP1 patch for Crystal Reports Designer, this appears to be the same one I already have installed, dated 28/09/08.  The problem is the current merge module for the SP1 runtime incorrectly removes some of the .dll's required by SP1 Designer if the merge module is subsequently installed / uninstalled with a third-party application from an ISV.  These .dll's should have been marked as Shared by the SP1 Designer patch install but have not, including the .dll's specific to SP1 (boezlib and uf12manager) along with a host of files in the Common\4.0\crystalreportviewers12 folders.
    I've tested around this area a few weeks ago and noticed that if the Shared reference count for these files in the registry is created before the SP1 merge module is installed / uninstalled (as it should have been by the SP1 Designer install) then the MM works correctly.  That is the reference count is increased when the MM is installed, decreased when MM is uninstalled but still remains > 0 and so these shared files are not removed.  This leaves the Crystal Reports SP1 Designer intact and working.
    I'll await the new install for SP1 Designer and give this a try in conjunction with the SP1 merge module install / uninstall.
    Also I've noticed the documentation you referred me to mentions the SP1 Runtime MSI will be refreshed to detect imcompatible software (to stop this corrupting an SP0 Designer install), but does not mention that the SP1 merge module will also be refreshed.  If the SP1 merge module is not refreshed, do you know if there will there be some documentation available for ISV's as to how to reliably detect any incompatible software on a target machine?  This will enable ISV's using the SP1 merge module to embed the same checks as used in your installations to prevent this corrupting any software on the target machine that is incompatible with the SP1 runtime.
    Many thanks,
    Peter.

  • Error to install Xcelsius 2008 on Windows vista. Error 1935.

    I have a big problem, I need install Xcelsius 2008 on Windows vista, but when I install the software apper the nex message:
    Error 1935 Error al instalar el ensamblado.
    "Microsoft.VC80.ATL,type ="Win32",version= "8.0.50727.762",pubicKeyToken="1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b",processorArchitecture="x86"". Consulte Ayude y soporte tecnico para obtener mas informacion.

    From a brief Google search, I determined this error message is from Vista. It is not being produced by Xcelsius. You will need to do your own search and determine what is causing Vista to report this error. You can also try installing using instructions for Xcelsius installation on Vista posted elsewhere in these forums.

  • Where do the Crystal 2008 SP1 runtime files reside on a machine?

    Crystal XI runtime files could be located in the C:\Program Files\Common Files\Business Objects\3.0\bin folder
    Where are the Crystal 2008 SP1 runtime files located?
    Thank you

    They are in: C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86
    Each version will be a new location so that Side by side installs do not over write other major version dll's.
    Thank you

  • Cannot install Crystal Reports Server 2008 and Client Tools on same machine

    I am having trouble setting up Crystal Reports Server 2008 with Client Tools on a new Windows 2003 SP 2 machine. The Server 2008 package installs OK (built-in MySQL server, built-in Tomcat 5.5 server). Reports run okay. But my customer wants to run reports that use Salesforce as a data source, so I tried to install Crystal Reports Server 2008 Client Tools (needed  for Salesforce support, apparently). I receive this error:
    'Business Objects product detected: cannot continue with install'. Installation of Client Tools immediately terminates.
    Oddly enough, when I uninstalled Server 2008, the Client Tools installed successfully. Then I tried installing Server 2008, and I got the same error message as with Server 2008. What the heck?
    Any ideas on how I can get Server 2008 and Server 2008 Client Tools to live in harmony on the same machine? We were able to do this with a (otherwise overloaded) Win2K3 server before.
    Thank you in advance for any help.

    Typically the client tools are installed with enterprise by default. If not then you would want to use add/remove in control panel and select them. The installer thinks you are trying to install enterprise on top of itself and thus the error.

  • Cannot install Crystal report 2008

    Dear All,
    I am trying to instal CR_2008_SP01_for_B1 on my PC. I got a screen said "please wait while the installer finishes determining your disk space requirements" forever. If I hit cancel, it will cancel the installation. So it looks like the installation process is not frozen. It didn't give me any error message as well. I have windows XP and SQL2008. I have SAP8.8 PL16. I have around 10G free space on C drive. That is the only local hard drive I have. Can anybody let me know how to install Crystal? Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Yuka

    Hi Yuka.........
    If you are not getting any errors while installation and taking time then I would suggest you let it run else if you cancel in between then it may corrupt dll files which are being created while installation. Because while installation a setup checks all those prerequisites which are required so it generally takes time.
    Regards,

  • Cannot Install SP2 - Requires SP1 before continuing

    I have tried just about everything to fix this:
    Through Windows Update and the Standalone package I receive a message that setup cannot continue because it needs SP1 installed first. Here is what I've tried:
    CHKDSK - Good
    SFC - Good
    Uninstalled AV
    System Readiness Toll (CheckSur) - No Errors
    Installed via Windows Update and Standalone Installer
    Restarted Server
    Registry change to 100 to reflect SP1 being installed
    msinfo32 verified SP1 listed
    Reset Windows Update Components
    Disabled Firewall
    Administrators have full permission to Servicing Packages Folder
    Turned off UAC
    Malware and Virus scans
    Possibly other things but I can't think of them, the update has been failing through automatic updates for 2 years now.

    To quote an oft used phrase: "does not compute".  <g> Server 2008 has no prerequisite of SP1.
    https://support.microsoft.com/kb/948465/en-us
    read through that and then follow the links to the SP, download and try installing that.  Or give us the exact name of the program you are trying to install.

  • Alignment issues after Crystal 2008 SP1 upgrade

    We are upgrading PeopleSoft tools from 8.49 to 8.50.11, for HR ver 9.0 and Crystal from ver 9 to ver 2008 SP1.
    Many of our Crystal reports that are run through the Process Scheduler into Excel are now having formatting issues such as headers wrapping vertically within a column, or extra rows/columns being added.
    Some cells in excel are merged and headings shifted over into another cell not lining up with the fields they belong to.
    We have run the Crystal conversion utility that came with the upgrade, but report are still not lining up. Has anyone experienced this and is there a solution.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hello,
    Did you check with Peoplesoft if they support the upgrade? Since this is a PS issue please post your question to Peoplesoft support. They are an OEM Partner and will ask Support if they have any issues.
    Thank you

  • Cannot install Crystal Reports 8.5 Pro - no Registration code

    We want to re-install Crystal Reports Profession 8.5 because the old PC it was installed has been replaced. We have the CD and the keycode but cannot complete the process.The installation asks for the keycode and then all our details which we enter including a valid email but it seems to attempt to go a incorrect web address (displays http://www.sap.com/solutions/sapbusinessobjects/index.epx) and we get no registration code.
    Searching and trawling about the SAP forums here didn't seem to help. Can anyone point us to the correct place to get a valid registration code.

    Hello,
    Is the old PC still available? If so you can get if from there. You could try contact Customer Services but I doubt they would be able to get you a new registration number. CR 8.5 is close to 10 years old and with the name changes none of those old servers are running now.... Try calling the number in the help about box.
    Other than that you'll just have to put up with the registration nag screen.
    Thank you

  • I cannot install itunes on my windows vista

    I try to install itunes on my windows vista, it gives me a error

    "iTunesSetup.exe não é um aplicativo Win32 válido"
    That suggests that the installer is getting damaged during the download.
    I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?
