ClickOnce, Crystal Reports XI R 2 on redistributed right

I am running into two different problems that I believe are unrelated so I will place them in different posts.
Bottomline: my ClickOnce deployment does not correctly check to see if it needs to install the Crystal Reports redistributable.
I have a .Net/C# Windows Form application which uses the SDK to generate reports. I am using Visual Studio 2005. Early versions of my application used the Crystal Reports that is included with Visual Studio. I ran into a problem there that was fixed by moving to Crystal Reports XI. I am now using Crystal Reports XI Release 2 SP 3.6. I followed the steps in Note "1206112 - How to update a Crystal Reports XI Release 2 ClickOnce deployment package".
Frankly those instructions seemed strange to me because no changes were made to the product.xml file in regards to the checks made.
On the user's machines I have seen the following issues when they use ClickOnce to install or update my application:
Machines 1 and 2: ClickOnce decided it was not necessary to install Crystal Reports. User encountered a runtime error because the correct version was not installed. I cannot verify this anymore but I suspect they had an older version of Crystal Reports assemblies.
Machine 3 (and I suspect all machines): if you return to the ClickOnce webpage and install my program again it will install the Crystal Reports redistributable again and again... ClickOnce does not correctly understand that the redistributable has already been installed.
I first thought that the test of BuildNum against the value 240 just needed to be changed. However, on a clean machine (never had any Crystal Reports modules before) I installed the redistributable and it does not make the registry key HKLM\SOFTWARE\Business Objects\Suite 11.5\Crystal Reports" Value="BuildNum".
So what is an appropriate check to see if the redistributable for Crystal Reports XI Release 2 SP 3.6 has already been installed on a machine?
Below are the contents of my C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\SDK\v2.0\BootStrapper\Packages\CrystalReports\product.xml file:
Thank you for your time,

I'm not sure what's going on with machines 1 and 2. This might be related to the issue you posted in your other thread, if you're creating packages from the non-working machines.
For the constant-reinstalling issue, I think there was a known issue relating to a registry key which never gets created. That can be rectified by changing the InstallChecks section of the product.xml file to look for a currently-installed product instead of that reg key. Give this a try and see if it works for you:
<InstallChecks>
<MsiProductCheck Property="CrystalRedist115_X86" Product="{A7FE99B6-E077-4F52-BC6A-E24C338F3C23}" />
</InstallChecks>
Note: I'm not sure if the product GUID changes per fixpack. That would be the million-dollar question.

Crystal Reports for VS2005 causes a Redistributable error for Windows 7

HI, I believe I also have a compatibility iossue with pre-bundeled Visual Studio 2005 (VS2005) Crystal Reports and Windows 7 using an XP development environment on a virtual PC.
I had built and published my VS 2005 desktop application code on a virtual PC running XP.After publishing the application executable to an application server for Windows 7 Kiosks machines to use. These Kiosks machines are used for Member Check In services. I discoverd that I get an error message when I attempt to print something from the application interface which says:
+"Please install the appropriate Crytsal Reports redistributable (CCRedist.msi) contaning the correct version of the Crystal Reports runtime (x86, x64, or Itanium) required. Please go to http://www.businessobjects.com./support for more information."+*
In attempting to resolve this issue, I went to the SAP site for help and discovered a help page on Merged Modules listed on one of the Web pages.
Next, I tried the suggestion one of the articles had mentioned about using CR2008 Click Once with VS2500 applications when deploying them. So I made sure that I unzipped this downloaded file and copied over the existing Click Once Bootstrap files, listed in the Windows 8 /Bootstrap/Packages, with those from the SAP downloaded files for 2008 Click Once.
Finally, I then rebuilt my application in VS2500 and published it using Click Once for the Windows 7 KIOSK to use.
Unfortunately, when I went to link and run the application's executable using the Windows 7 Kiosk in order to run it's interface, I still got the same error message when I tried to print out a member's Check In ticket. These tickets are created using VS2005 Crystal Reports.
Q) Did I do something incorrect when I used the SAP CR2008 Click Once merged module on deployemnt?
Thanks.
Tony

New to Crystal Reports Server - Wondering if this is right product for me

Good Day! This is my first time at the forums and I hope this is the right place to post my query.
I have just recently downloaded the free trial software for Crystal Reports Server. I was directed to this software from a group of people on another forum.
Here is my situation:
I am currently an administrator for my companies various Service Level Agreement reports. I create the reports in Crystal Reports 9.0 and I connect using an ODBC driver to a DB2 database for a piece of software called HP OpenView ServiceCenter (Peregrine). The Peregrine software comes bundled with an older application called ReportCenter. In this software, I put all the .rpt files into one .ini file. ReportCenter then allows me to schedule the time and the date my various .rpt reports will run. For example, we have a daily report I schedule to run every night at 11:00 PM. At 11:00 PM, the software will then run the report and then export it to a file format of my choice (such as PDF or EXCEL).
I was told from another forum that the Crystal Reports Server should allow me to perform the same functionality. Does anyone use the software in this manner?

In addition to Srinivas' excellent replies, it is also noteworthy that the cr server product line also has several SDK's for developing your own customized applications. Quite a few custtomers have impllemented their own customized pages to schedule, view and export reports as well as for administration of the server(s) itself.
I would like to suggest that you look more into a newer version of the product such as CR Server XIR2 or CR Server 2008.

How to create Crystal Report?

Hi All,
I'm a new beginner to the world of ODT. I have created a project using VB 2008 and Oracle 10g using Oracle Dev Tools for .NET version 11.xx. Now, I want to create simple report from my Oracle Database using Crystal Report. Can any one show me how to accomplish this? I try several methods but failed. Please guide me.
Thanks in advance,
Mr Haulai

You can create a new crystal report.
Then in Fied Exploer right-click on database fields and choose Database Expert. Database Expert Dialog box will appear expand create new connection expand on OLE DB (ADO) then OLE DB (ADO) Dialog will appear and then choose Microsoft OLE DB provider for Oracle in provider list box, click next then input your TNS, user name and password click next and finnish.
You will go back database expert and then choose your username under TNS name, select your favorite table or view and turn it to Selected table list box ater that click ok.
When you've already done everything above in Field Explorer you will see your table or view, click expand on your table or view -> drag a field and drop on report surface... then right click choose report preview to test it....
Hope it can help you....

Where is the Manage Object function in Crystal Reports 2013 for the CMC?

I recently upgraded to Crystal Reports 2013 after upgrading our Crystal Reports server to SAP Business Objects Platform 4.1. Before the upgrade, I could publish reports from Crystal Reports XI to the CMC then right-click on the report title in the Repository Explorer (in Crystal Reports) and I had the option to select Manage Object where I could set the default settings for the CMC. I am not seeing this option in the new version of Crystal Reports. Is there something I need to do to see this option or has this option been removed from Crystal Reports 2013?

Hi Kelley,
You're right, the option doesn't exist in CR XI R2 and above.
All the options now need to be set in CMC.

Crystal Reports 2011 Installation Issue, key code not valid

Folks,
We have just purchased two licenses for the Crystal 2011 upgrade from DigitalRiver. The installation completes successfully, using one of the two "digital rights" keys that were provided in the confirmation email from DigitalRiver.
Upon launching Crystal Reports 2011 for the first time, though, we are being prompted with a License Manager window asking to add a key code for Crystal Reports. We enter the "digital rights" key provided by DigitalRiver, the same one used during the installation [copy and pasted from the email for accuracy] and receive the error message "The key code you just typed is not valid, please try again."
Canceling this window or clicking Ok simply closes the Crystal Reports application.
Any assistance in how to get the application running would be helpful.
Tested Environments:
Windows 7 Professional SP1, 32bit
Visual Studio 2010 w/ CR for Visual Studio 2010 installed
Windows Server 2008 R2, 64bit
Thanks,
Jeff

Follow-up:
We went through several iterations of installation and finally decided to mix things up to see if we could get a different response from the software. The items that we performed differently were as follows:
1. Ran the setup.exe as administrator [even though we have full admin access as the logged in user]
2. Hand typed the digital rights key rather than cut/paste from the email
3. Performed a custom installation rather than the default and de-selected all of the SAP and other software integration options.
The software ran fine without prompting with the License Manager.
My guess is that it was the removal of the integration pieces that allowed the application to run. We'll perform our next install with just that change and see if it is the culprit.

Crystal Reports are not centered when viewing on Crystal Viewer

Hi
I´d like to ask you if you reported some problem of using subreports and during the visualization from the Crystal Viewer the main report and of course the subreports are not centered. I´m running Vs.Net 2005 with CR 10.
The main report and subreports access ADO.NET. Only one parameter is passed by the user. If we test the application and address the visualization to the crystal report viewer it is showed on right side even using DisplayGroupTree = False. But if we export the report to PDF it is showed centered. Is it a way to fix this one?
Any advice or suggestions?
Tks,
Isocler

When you say you're using v10 with VS2005, do you mean the full CR v10 product or the version that comes with VS.NET 2005 (version 10.2)? Make sure you're using/referencing the 10.2.* CR assemblies in your project, as the 10.0.* are not supported.
If you have the correct assemblies referenced, then make sure you have the latest patches applied. I think there may have been a fix for DIV tags.

Controlling Access to Certain Reports When Using Crystal Reports Server

Hi,
I was wondering exactly how security is managed when using Crystal Reports Server? Do you assign rights to individual reports via user ids in Active Directory? Or what exactly is used for user authentication? Is it possible to create local accounts? Thanks.

Usually access is controlled by permissions which are set in the CMC (BO web admin tool). You can map 3rd party groups from AD or LDAP and then assign permissions to those groups or set up security with built in enterprise groups as well. You may elect to use any combination of the above. For more complex security models there can use database and row level security built into our meta layers called business views and universes.

Tim

Question about Crystal Reports 4.0 and "cross database joins"

Hi everybody,
in Crystal Reports 2008 we could use the cross database joining feature to put two or more BEx queries via MDX into one report and join them within Crystal Reports. We know that this might lead to performance problems but for some scenarios this was the only solution.
Now with Crystal Reports for Enterprises 4.0 the whole connection to SAP systems will change. Will we have a chance to make one report agains two or more BEx queries any other way than using subforms. The latter will not fit our needs.
Thank you very much!
Thorsten

Hi,
Crystal Reports 4.0 is in RampUp right now. In case you are interested in the details I would suggest you join the RampUp.

Crystal Reports for VS2010 Prerequisites for ClickOnce Deployment

I keep getting this Error when publishing my application with clickonce even though I have Crystal Reports for VS2010 installed: I want the prerequisites to be downloaded from the same location as my app. Publishing fails with the following error.
The install location for prerequisites has not been set to 'component vendor's web site' and the file 'Crystal Reports for .NET Framework 4.0\CRRuntime_32bit_13_0.msi' in item 'SAP Crystal Reports Runtime Engine for .NET Framework 4.0' can not be located on disk.

Crystal Reports 13 for VS2013 Hangs when report deployed via Clickonce

Hi,
We have upgraded from vs2008 to vs2013 one of our .net C# projects. Project consist of a Server and a windows client. Reports are run in the client, and data transported with disconnected Datasets ( No direct connection to the database ). We use Microsoft clickonce to deploy this application to our users.
The problem we have is that after the migration clients deployed with clickonce experience a delay of about 1 minute while the report is shown with a message "please wait while the document is processing". However if we run the application directly from the filesystem the report is shown immediately.
running the clickonce deployed shows the following message using process monitor, however after ~1 minute the report displays correctly.

2. Using Vs2013
3. Using SAP Crystal Reports, developer version for Microsoft Visual Studio - Service Pack 9 - Fixed Issues and updates - Busines…

Hi,
Finally found the issue:
Our windows application every 20 minutes ( 1 minute in debug ) check for clickonce updates in an independent thread using CheckForDetailedUpdate method and then it sleeps.
public void ApplicationUpdateTimerThread()
int updateInterval = applicationUpdateTimer.Interval = 1200000; // 20 mins
if (ApplicationDataAccess.IsDebug) { updateInterval = 60000; }
while (true)
     UpdateCheckInfo updateInfo = appDeployment.CheckForDetailedUpdate();
     Thread.Sleep(updateInterval);
Doing this was locking the filesystem where now Crystal is putting their temporary report files and therefore preventing file access until the thread was active again ( The reason for the 60 seconds delay )
So Creating a new thread to only check for update and let it die inmediately fixed the issue.
public void ApplicationUpdateTimerThread()
int updateInterval = applicationUpdateTimer.Interval = 1200000; // 20 mins
if (ApplicationDataAccess.IsDebug) { updateInterval = 60000; }
while (true)
System.Threading.Thread t1 = new System.Threading.Thread (delegate()
{ UpdateCheckInfo updateInfo = appDeployment.CheckForDetailedUpdate(); });
t1.Start();
Thread.Sleep(updateInterval);

Crystal Reports ClickOnce install fails after upgrade to run time 13.0.2

I realize this is very similar to two other posts but the ClickOnce failure was not addresses in the two threads I found.
Visual Studio 2010 V 10.0.40219.1 SP1Rel
.NET Framework V 4.0.30319 SP1Rel
Crystal Reports for .NET Framework 4.0 BuildVersion=13.0.2.469.Cortez_CR4VS (from ProductId.txt in the download folder)
Application was original developed using CR BuildVersion=13.0.1.220.Cortez_CR4VS
So since I upgraded this week, if a user clicks the Launch link on the deployment web page the application loads the appl;ication update and starts. Does not even check with Crystal Reports but everything seems to work.
The new version of the Crystal Reports runtime tries to install for users I have that enjoy clicking the run button. The install fails and points at a log file, the key part of which is
Installing using command 'C:\WINDOWS\system32\msiexec.exe' and parameters ' -I "C:\DOCUME1\clyle\LOCALS1\Temp\VSDC8.tmp\Crystal Reports for .NET Framework 4.0\CRRuntime_32bit_13_0_2.msi" -q '
Process exited with code 1603
Status of package 'SAP Crystal Reports Runtime Engine for .NET Framework 4.0' after install is 'InstallFailed'
Uninstalling the previous version manually alleviates the failure as does manually running the msi on the target machine. But that kind of defeats the purpose of ClickOnce. Looking at product.xml that accompanies the runtime download I see it tests for the 13.0.2 version and bypasses the install if it finds it but it does not check for earlier versions.
Another thread I read indicated changing the switches in the install command would work but I am not clear on how to do that from ClickOnce, I cannot locate where the command is being given. Is there a way to get it to test for previous versions and delete them or force an overwrite using the ClickOnce?

Ludek,
Did this issue above every get resolved?
Here is what I have:
ClickOnce, Windows form app that uses Crystal. I upgraded to VS 2012 and Crystal right along
with it.
I only want the 32bit version to install, even on 64bit
machines. I have modified the
product.xml file to allow for this. Also
have some machines with version 13.0.0 and 13.0.1 of the Crystal ClickOnce msi
file. Would like to get everyone up to
13.0.6.
I am doing ALL this testing on clean VMWare installs.
Windows 7 x64 and Windows XP x86.
I force the 32bit install in the product file. (This I believe
is working correctly) And I do a version check, this is where the problem comes
in… Below, from the product file:
<InstallChecks>
    <RegistryCheck
Property="CRRuntime32Version" Key="HKLM\SOFTWARE\SAP
BusinessObjects\Crystal Reports for .NET Framework 4.0\Crystal Reports"
Value="CRRuntime32Version" />
</InstallChecks>
Note to path in the registry. This path which is installed
by CR is different for Win7 vs WinXP, not sure why? In Win7 the path is:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\SAP
BusinessObjects\Crystal Reports for .NET Framework 4.0\Crystal Reports
Also if you have version 13.0.0 installed there is no entry
in the registry for the version number at all!
The log file also show that it can’t find the version if 13.0.0 is
installed.
Admittedly the error log shows that it is somehow finding
the version if it is 13.0.1 (nothing for 13.0.0)? But even though I have it set
to skip the 13.0.6 install if the version check is 13.0.1 or higher Crystal
attempts to install anyway, and it fails in the process, halting the entire
ClickOnce install.
In summary. I need to
be able to check the version currently installed and update it to 13.0.6. This fails and seems to be a bug?   Hopefully there is a work around.
Thanks,
Jim

Redistributable components of crystal report 11 and Crystal Report 2013

Currently we are facing a peculiar problem where we are having a report with 5 tables and connected using the default crystal report db connectivity.
The report was created in a very old version of crystal report 8.5 and we have been migrating the same to latest versions.
When i execute the report from my Application using crystal report 11 run-time components installed it works perfectly (5 Secs). In this we were using the viewer ole control embedded in our application.
But when the same report is opened up from the application using the crystal report 2013 run-time components there is performance lag of 15 Secs every time using the viewer as separate control using C# .net framework 4.0.
Also Installing crystal report 11 run-time and then installing crystal report 2013 run-time resolves the issue.
Can someone let me know if we are missing something.
Thanks & Regards,
Satish VS

Hi Bhushan
Thanks for your prompt reply
- The old application was it a .NET or COM SDK app?
Old application uses the COM SDK App ( CrystalRuntime.Application) developed in VB & consumed the same as an Ole object in Power builder.
- What version of VS are you using? (Earlier and now).
Earlier With Crystal report 11 we were directly deploying the viewer as ole control in our Powerbuilder application
Now we are using VS2010 with .net framework 4.0 as separate viewer control
- Is this a windows or a web application?
Its an windows application
- Provide the version no of CR 11 you used earlier?
Old Application uses crystal report 11.0.0.1282
- There are no runtimes for crystal report 2013, so could you please provide the version no for the crystal report 2013 runtimes you are using? You could check the file version of crystaldesicions.crystalreport.engine assembly.
Yes we are using crystaldecision run-time and the version is 13.0.2000.0 & Runtime version - v2.0.50727
- As runtimes, did you use MSM, MSi or ClickOnce CR runtimes do deploy your application?
We were using this CRRuntime_32bit_13_0.msi as a pre-requisite before deploying our application.
-Also, if you could elaborate on how did you upgrade / migrate the application and deployed it, would be helpful.
In my old application we would be using the default crystal report 11 merge module to be deployed alongwith our application msi.
To upgrade they would install the CRRuntime_32bit_13_0.msi and then deploy our application msi.
Please let me know if you need any further information.
Thanks in advance.
