Catch BO Session info in Crystal Report 2008
Hi All.
I have an Xcelsius model with data provided by a Live Office connection.
I've tried to embed this model, as swf file, in a report Crystal 2008.
I've published this report within BOE Enterprise, but trying to visualize it, the Live Office connection prompts for BO authentication.
Is there any way in Crystal Report 2008 to catch current BO session info to pass it to the Live Office connection?
I would really appreciate any suggestion.
Thanks a million.
PS: I'm sorry if this is not the right forum. This thread is available also in Dashboard Design (Xcelsius) section.
HI,
to get or find an answer/solution about your question/problem?
I planning also to use Hierarchy Display in CR. And it is very interessting for me to know if that is working.
Thanks

PS: I'm sorry if this is not the right forum. This thread is available also in Crystal Reports Design section.No, we haven't found a solution that we would like to have.
We are putting in place a workaround to update the Xcelsius SWF file outside of Crystal. We will have the Crystal Report using the BOBJ scheduler to export to Excel on a file share the cross tab table used in Xcelsius and then have Xcelsius updated using the BOBJ scheduler. Instead of having the Xcelsuis embedded in Crystal, the SWF file will be posted to the same SharePoint site that we will be posting the PDF file from Crystal. Not ideal, but it should work. -
Crystal Reports 2008 crashes in Windows 2003 terminal Services Session
Hi,
We installed Crystal Reports Server and Crystal Reports 2008 on a new Windows 2003 Small Business Server. Crystal Reports works when run at the physical console, but when accessed from Remote Desktop it crashes to the debugger when I try to:
a) open an existing working report that uses SQL Server 2005 parameterized stored procedure,
b) create a new report using any SQL Server 2005 parameterized stored procedure,
c) access help.
All the above work fine at the physical server but I need to access remotely using RDC.
I log in as administrator, I have tried turning off DEP and I am running RDC via the mstsc command both without and with the /admin switch to run in session 0 but there is still a difference between being at the physical console versus remote that CR does not like.
More: I have to drive a long way to get to the server to try things locally. For now, as a workaround, I have started crw32.exe at the physical server and I can use that when I log in via RDC - I just cannot start crw32.exe remotely and run it successfully. Also, when I do run remotely, I get the entire menu bar on startup with no start page, but running at physical server I get only the File, View and Help menus but I do get the Start page.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Rob Hershfield

Database Logon Failed which created by Crystal Report 2008
this time i meet the famous error again which is database logon failed.
i created a crystal report 2008 starting from blank report, then connect with odbc
i use 2008 method
objRpt.SetDatabaseLogon(db_username, db_password, odbc_name, database_name);
2008 method will get database logon failed even set database location and verify database again
then i use 8.5 method and try again for 2008 report. it said field name is unknown for one of formula
then i drag field again for formula and set database location and verify database again
it said the same error.
then i uninstall 8.5 crytal report software in window 7 deployment machine, and do above again, it said the same error

Crystal Reports 2008 connecting to R/3
I have a general question for Crystal Reports 2008 for use with R/3.
Crystal Reports 2008 with SAP/R3 Enterprise 4.7
I installed a trial version of Crystal Reports 2008 and connected it to the R/3 instance using a oracle id which has admin rights so the session can see all of R/3 db including 000 client. It can see all tables within the database.
To deploy Crystal Reporting for an R/3 installation - is it advisable to connect directly to db? how do you maintain proper data element access? Do you create views for a oracle user id, or is there a delivered product or method for allowing user access using some other type of security that limits table access to say finance tables?
JohnCheck our site for more info but in general CR fully respects all DB security, if the user does not have permissions on the table used in the report the report will fail to run.

Performance in the Server with the created report - Crystal Report 2008
Hi
We have developed a complex report and deployed in the server. It takes more time to process and once if the report created and we are trying to expand a group/navigate different pages, the same time delay is happeneing. Sometimes it takes more than a minute which really kills the performance. My client has accepted the delay while the report is being genrated but they raise question like why it takes too much time just to display the created report.
I tried keeping the created report in Session and rebind on page_load as well stored a copy on the server and rebind whenver postback happens. Both methods working simliar and no improvement the in the performance. Is there any way to kill the time delay in this.( we have an idea like , if we store the created report at client machine and whenever postback happens just bind from client machine instead to hit the server back, Is this achievable)
Any Help would helpful to me
ThanksHi
What version of CR are you using?
Crystal report 2008, I think its in subject of this thread itself. (Version 12.0.0.683)
What if any CR SP have you applied?
No
What version of .NET are you using?
.Net 3.5 using C# technology (.Net framework 3.5)
What database are you using?
SQL Server2008
What connection type are you using?
We have created a Stored Procedure and connected the SP to the crystal report.
What are you comparing the performance to? E.g.; is it faster somewhere else? How much faster?
No, we didnt compare anywhere. but my question is to avoid the delay in navigation of pages or selecting an item in the group tree. The report contains 100+ pages and client is accepting delay while creating the report but not during navigation or selection( why do the already created report takes more time(even in minutes) to render on navigation or selection and how to avoid the delay))
Define "complex report ".
Nothing complexity in the report even we have used oly less formulas(less than 5) but chats are included and used for each group( we have 6 groups in the report)

Customizing ActiveX Viewer for Crystal Reports 2008
Here's the scenario.
We have reports designed in Crystal Reports 2008, that are deployed on Business Objects 3.1 Infoview. All reports have Parameters for users to choose. All reports are expected to refresh on open.Some are dynamic some are standard static ones. There is an application developed in JAVA that is rendering these reports using the ActiveX viewer.
The users are not comfortable with the way reports look in JAVA viewer. Hence the choices are either HTML viewer or ActiveX viewer.
The application achieves this by making OpenDoc call to the report and using
sViewer=actx
as one of the parameters. Here's the issue that we run into. When users land on the parameter screen, the parameter screen alone Pops Up in a new window. Once all the parameter values are entered and the users clicks OK, the window vanishes and actual report is rendered in the original window.
If we use HTML viewer by setting
sViewer=html
The report Parameter screen is rendered in the main window without popping up. However we do not wish to use HTML viewer because, some of the reports are linked to other reports with OpenDoc calls. i. e. Parent report calls child report with a OpenDoc call. In the HTML viewer, when you click on the link to child report, it opens in same window despite setting
sWindow=new
in that opendoc call. Thereby losing parent report and no way to navigate back to it. This problem does not happen in ActivX viewer.There it seems to obey the command to open in new window.
Lastly you can recreate all this behavior by setting your viewer preferences in Info View settings.
So, here's my questions.
1. Should I use the .Net viewer instead of ActiveX Viewer ? If so, where can I find Syntax for the same ?
2. Can someone point me to documentation on the ActiveX Viewer ? Specifically making it not to Pop Up the Parameter Screen ?
3. Should the Java application use a different method other than Open Doc to cal the reports ? If so where can I get the details ?
Apologies for the long post. I tried to anticipate most of the questions that may arise in your mind. Thanks in advance for the time invested.Thank you Adam for the help.
I already have the Open Document document you mentioned. Can't seem to search for the KB article in Marketplace. No results found.
Just to clarify, I do not want to avoid the Parameter screen. Its the fact that it Pops Up in ActiveX viewer is the issue. The only thing I want in ActiveX viewer is to make that screen appear in main window just like HTML viewer.
I understand that there is no difference as far as opendoc is concerned between .Net or JAVA. I am looking for the SDK behind the viewers themselves.
To my third question, your answer is what I was looking for. But need a bit clarification.

> If you do not like the functionality that OpenDocument provides, you could use the SDK to view the reports, but you will likely run into the same issue as you are running into when using the html viewer. The only workaround for that is to set a property on the viewer object in the SDK but it will affect all hyperlinks in the report not just a single one.
By setting Property in SDK for the viewer Object, are you referring to Meta Tag encapsulation such as
<a href= http://infoview.server.com/Infoview/opendoc/openDocument.jsp?iDocID=ABZR3Z&sIDType=CUID&&sType=wid&sRefresh=Y&sWindow=new>Report Title</a>
May be I didn't get your point with setting property. I know there is documentation on Viewer SDK. I just can't seem to find it. I hope it would answer the questions.

Crystal Reports 2008 and Dynamic Images
Hello,
I have a windows .net application that uses a listing of items in a grid. The user selects an item then clicks the print button and that brings up a report viewer form and passes the photograph location in a parameter to the report document being loaded.
The first time that this report is printed, the image for the selected item is printed correctly. The next time the report is printed, the default image used to create the graphic object on the report is printed.
In addition if a user double clicks on the listing of items, a detail form is displayed. When the same report is printed from this screen, the default image used to create the graphic object on the report is printed.
This is happening in multiple .net windows applications.
Can anyone please give me an idea as to what may be causing this.
I am using Crystal Reports 2008 with Service Pack 2 installed.

In the Crystal Report the Graphic Location formula field takes the {?MyPhotoLocation} + {Table.Photo} field to display the picture. I have placed the parameter and the photo field on the report and the correct data is in the fields.
This is the exact same form being opened and that displays correctly from the listing screen.

Crystal Reports 2008 Redistribution on 64 Bit Server
I have a small application that uses Crystal Reports 2008 in not-integrated mode. Meaning that the .rpt files are seperate from the web application and the web application has to know the absolute path to the .rpt files before it can run them. My question is how do I deploy Crystal Reports 12 to a windows server 2003 x64 server? I have installed the redist.msi and the reports won't work I keep getting the following error:

My only guess is that there is some configuration I am not doing on the server. Can someone help me?I think the frustration is coming more from the combination of lack of support for x64 (quite surprising for such an established product) combined with a site that's very difficult to navigate and use (the BusinessObjects site).
We ourselves have also just invested a great deal of time in building some Crystal Reports for a pilot system for a large US Insurance Company and cannot choose to avoid a 64-bit target server. We deploy at the end of next week and though we can compile deliberately for 32 bit as outlined in your post, this causes all sorts of other issues with other assemblies we are using that are not binary compiled for a specific platform and that we cannot ourselves recompile.
To be concise, your posted solution is not really a solution unless a number of other assumptions are true that we all know in practical terms to be unrealistic for anything but the simplest of apps.
For us, pulling Crystal at this point is embarassing for the customer (they specifically requested that we use it) and for Business Objects, and creates a deadline crunch in our project plan as we convert to Telerik or some other x64 solution.
We will certainly follow up with phone support to see if there are other choices (doubtful), but given that you offer a trial version of Crystal 2008 I think it's remiss that there are no clear guidelines in a publicly-reachable forum that discuss in detail how to deploy completely to x64 including ensuring that other related issues to using a 32-bit compilation on x64 are mentioned/covered. I certainly can see that even an advanced developer would continue to hold out hope that there is some configuration option combination that will work.
Finally, can you provide any guidance on when Crystal Reports will catch up to Windows 2000, 2003 and 2008 and provide a 64-bit runtime? -
Crystal Report 2008 error in generating existing reports
HI,
I have just now migrated my server from Win 2003, 32 bit to Win 2003, 64 bit. I was holding a valid license in the old server.

Now, while generating the existing reports from my application, I am getting error in event viewer as-
"The description for Event ID ( 4353 ) in Source ( Crystal Reports ) cannot be found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote computer. You may be able to use the /AUXSOURCE= flag to retrieve this description; see Help and Support for details. The following information is part of the event: The keycode assembly, BusinessObjects.Licensing.KeycodeDecoder.dll, cannot be loaded."
Can someone please suggest me how to resolve this error? Actually, while opening the crystal report from application, a pop-up comes as - "Internet Explorer Script error......._pe is undefined......Do you want to continue with this? " If I say Yes/No, it opens up the required page but drop down does not contain any info and 'OK' or 'CANCEL' button does not appear....
I need to solution ASAP. Please help.
Thanks
kmoondraCrystal report is supported in 64 bit version too
Support on 64 bit OS does not necessarily mean that the product is 64 bit. E.g.; CR 2008 (12.x) is still only 32 bit. Only CRVS2010, CR 10.2 and CR 10.5 come in both 32 bit and 64 bit flavors.
If you are using 32 bit Crystal Report, make sure your app is compiled as 32 bit, not "Any CPU". If you compile as "Any CPU" the 64 bit oS will want 64 bit runtime for the app by definition. This will fail as there is no 64 bit runtime for CR 2008. E.g.; follow the advice in Don's post.

Crystal Report 2008 on Windows Server 2008 64bit
hi,
I tried to run a Crystal Reports Web Application on a Windows Server 2008 64bit but I got this error:
"Bei der Erzeugung des Reports ist ein Fehler aufgetreten.
Der Typeninitialisierer für "CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument" hat eine Ausnahme verursacht.

The System:
- Windows Server 2008 Standard 64bit SP2
- Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 SP1
- Oracle Client 10gR2 64bit
- I tried Crystal Report 2008 Runtime, Crystal Report 2008 Runtime SP1, Crystal Report 2008 Runtime SP2, Crystal Report 2008 Runtime SP3.
- Crystal Report Basic Runtime for Visual Studio 2008 (x64)
On a 32bit-system or 32bit-mode (and 32bit Oracle Client) everything is working fine. But I have to use the 64bit Oracle Client, therefore, Crystal Report have to work in 64bit-mode.
Is it possible and what is to do to get it working, thanks,
MartinIt does work on 64 bit OS - as a 32 bit application. CR 2008 is 32 bit only.
See the article [Crystal Reports support of 64 bit Operating Systems|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/10d5fa88-2013-2c10-c9a5-f11963607d4e] for more info.

Crystal Report 2008 results "Password did not match error" in SQL Server Log
Hi,
I am trying to develop some crystal reports using Crystal Report 2008 SP4 to connect to SQL server 2008 through RDO (ODBC). My problem is that anytime Crystal Report is trying to establish a connection with SQL Server, first it tries to connect with the wrong password and results the following error message in SQL Server log:
Login failed for user 'peyman'. Reason: Password did not match that for the login provided. [CLIENT: 192.168.2.198]
The login name 'peyman' is the right one as I have quoted the same in setting up ODBC System DSN using "SQL Server Native Client 10". But somehow Crystal Report is taking its chance and trying to connect before prompting me for the password. After this error logged to SQL server side, I can see Crystal Report pops up the prompt to enter DSN password. After supplying password to this prompt, Crystal Report works fine and pulls the data and renders the report without having any more incorrect password error logged to SQL Server.
The attached file shows the step I am taking to regenerate the issue. I need this to be fixed as anytime uses any of these reports and tries to render it with crystal runtime engine the same error message raises in SQL Server side and logged in the log file.
Thanks,Hi Peyman,
This is the way it should work, In CR designer when you open the report it does nothing. As soon as you hit the Refresh button then CR tries to use the connection saved with the report. It assumes what is saved with the report is a valid server and connection info. CR simply tries to verify the server is still active.
If you don't want it to fail in CRD then before opening any report Click the File, Log on Database option and connect. Now when refreshing reports it won't log the failed.
In the SDK it does the same thing, it assumes the Server info is the same and does try to connect to verify the Server does exist. It only takes a few milli-seconds to do this
To stop this from happening set the log on info first then it won't log the attempt to connect, it's checking to see if Trusted is allowed.

Notice it doesn't try to connect first if I set the log on info first using code.
So nothing we can do to stop SQL server from logging this info. Check with the DBA, possibly they can "filter" out the application attempts to connect or change your work flow in the app.
If you have a Preview Button to view the report then simply add your Database log on info prompt there if Connectioninfo.Trusted is not true:
mainSecureDB = rpt.Database.Tables[tableIndex].LogOnInfo.ConnectionInfo.IntegratedSecurity;
if mainSecureDB = false then prompt the user for log on info and set accordingly, if it is true the it should not fail when it connects.
This is simply a matter of changing your App work flow...
Thanks

Crystal Reports 2008 - Error setting new datasource location
Hi All,
We are experiencing an issue while trying to set datasource location for our RM 3.0 reports in Crystal Reports 2008 designer. As per guide "SAP BusinessObjects Process Control 3.0 and Risk Management 3.0 - How to build and Personalize Custom Crystal Reports" (step 11), after opening the desire report we go to DataBase-->Set DataSource Location and when selecting our RM system (which actually has the BI content addon installed on it), we got the following error message:
"Some tables could not be replaced, as no match was found in the new data source. Please verify the table required for any unmodified tables"
I'm new on this so I'm not sure if the table indicated in the original datasource should exist in my DB (new datasource) before doing this? If so, how those tables are imported or created in our DB?
Could you please help me on this issue?
Please let me know if any other detail or data is required.
RegardsHi Don,
Thanks for the update.
Actually I've installed SAP Integration Kit and its Fixpack in both....BOE Server (which is the same as the SAP server) and in client pc. In all cases we have select a typical installation which supposes the required drivers are available. Also I've followed Ingo's documentation to activate and publish standard Risk Management reports (RM reports). Everything works ok with them. We are able to access reports through the application.
The issue appears when trying to customize one of these standard reports through CR Designer. For example if we select the "GRRM_Risk_by_Risk_Category" and try to customize it as indicated in the "SAP BusinessObjects Process Control 3.0 and Risk Management 3.0 - How to build and Personalize Custom Crystal Reports"...the table behind this report (table GRFN_CY_API_GRRM_R1) it's not in our RM System. My main concern or question is regarding this....Did I miss something while importing transports files, activating or publishing RM reports, etc....and thatu2019s the reason why this (and any other) table is not already in my system? I was not able to find where those tables are supposed to be or how they should be imported in my system. The odd thing is...that we are trying to customize and set the new data source for these reports to the same system from where they are being opened. Put in this way...RM reports have been activated in system A (RM System) and published to system B (BOE System). While customizing reports through CR Designer...we are actually opening reports from system A. These reports have as their original data source...a demo SAP system info (uxcir1p.wdf.sap.corp) and when we want to update this data source with our RM system....the error appears. The whole process is explained in the above mentioned guide for your reference.
Hope being clear enough..
Thanks for your help -
ASP Crystal Report 2008 (12) Oracle 9 and Visual Basic!
Hi All,
I'm mainting an old application and I need to simulate the same client environment in my machine.
I have a VB application (with COM+ server components) that's creates a report object with parameters. But the only thing that this application does it's call an ASP page that contains all the logic to call a .rpt file, connect to Oracle 9i and then show the crystal report inside a MS webbrowser component (activeX) in the VB form.
I already setup the IIS, and the site there, I put all the .rpt files in the site and if you try to access without calling from VB you can run the asp pages, but the reports still doesn't appears.
These ASP pages should connect to Oracle and then show the rpt file, but I'm facing the following error:
The url that's the application creates is for example this: http://localhost/application1/createreport.asp?sSessionId=2&ReportName=TransactionsProcessed.rpt¶meter1¶meter2... etc etc...
Script Error Number: -21471922153
File could not be opened because the library "P2sora7.dll" cannot be found.
User Error Text: An error has ocurred in CreateReport.asp while logging onto the Oracle database server. Please try again.
I already check the database connection and it is working fine using ODBC, and the application works fine with the database.
The file p2sora.dll is in C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32, I already copied from another machine, and I have installed Crystal Report 2008 (12) in my server machine with Windows 2003 server, that's the application and web server where report should be run. I know that the old application was executed with Crystal 7, but I cannot found this version to buy.

Mail barcode support in Crystal Reports 2008 - does it really exist?
We are looking to add mail bar codes to our existing reports. The cover letter of the report includes a mailing label and we would like to add a mail bar code underneath it. I called 888-229-2276 yesterday and explained what I wanted to do. I was instructed to download a trial version from the website and take a look at the help as this feature was added in Crystal Reports 2008. The help didn't explain much more than right click the fieled you want to bar code and select the Bar Code option listed. What this created was a regular bar code that looks like a UPC you would find in the grocery store. I tried both Azalea fonts, but got the same result.
How does one create an Intelligent Mail barcode or PostNet barcode?Having dealt with both PostNet and Intelligent Mail Barcodes (IMB), using CR XI R1, here are a couple of things that might shed some light:
1. PostNet and IMB are vastly different, so you choose which one you want to generate. PostNet requires some calculation based on the zipcode and/or zip+5 whereas IMB requires specific information such as Mailer ID etc assigned to your company by USPS.
2. You can download a PostNet font, which can be found on the web as shareware etc. IMB font can be downloaded from USPS for free. For more info on IMB check out [https://ribbs.usps.gov/index.cfm?page=intellmailmailpieces]
3. IMB is very specific to your company and as such requires a thorough understanding of the type of mail you will be sending and if it is bulk or BRM etc etc. It would be better to consult with the USPS customer rep for your company to determine if IMB is appropriate for you.
4. PostNet is a breeze compared to IMB. All you need do is determine if the barcode will be based on zip or zip+5 and delivery point codes which determines if the barcode will contain 32, 52 or 62 bars. You then download the font from the web and off you go. Information on how to calculate/generate PostNet barcodes is all over the internet, the key is downloading the font.
I bet it is all clear as mud but feel free to post if you have more questions.
