I would also suggest here:
There is now a "pure java" viewer with Crystal Reports 10.
This page has links to documentation explaining it and how it works.
Having just been using it, I am not THAT impressed with it. Was very frustrating to get working.

Java Plugin Viewer with Crystal Reports 2008

Hello,
I am trying to use the Java Plugin Viewer with Crystal Reports, but I have some problems. The ActiveX Viewer works well, but as I want to use the reports in other browsers, I need the Java viewer.
I have a Visual Basic 6 application, and, instead of including SmartViewerActiveX.asp, I have included JavaPluginViewer.asp. I have taken this file from an older version of Crystal, and I am changing the values on it (I have done the same with the ActiveX Viewer, without problems). This is the main code of the file:
<OBJECT
    classid="clsid:8AD9C840-044E-11D1-B3E9-00805F499D93"
    width="100%"
    height="100%"
    codebase="/crystalreportviewers11/JavaPlugin/Win32/j2re-1_4_2_04-windows-i586-p.exe#Version=1,4,0,0">
    <param name=type value="application/x-java-applet;version=1.4">
    <param name=code value="com.crystaldecisions.ReportViewer.ReportViewer">
    <param name=codebase value="/crystalreportviewers11/JavaViewer/">
    <param name=archive value="ReportViewer.jar">
    <param name=Language value="en_US">
    <param name=ReportName value="RDCrptserver11.asp">
    <param name=CanDrillDown value="true">
    <param name=HasExportButton value="true">
    <param name=HasGroupTree value="true">
    <param name=ShowGroupTree value="true">
    <param name=HasPrintButton value="true">
    <param name=HasRefreshButton value="true">
    <param name=HasTextSearchControls value="true">
    <param name=HasZoomControl value="true">
    <param name=HasSearchExpert value="false">
    <param name=HasSelectExpert value="false">
    <param name=ShowLogo value="false">
</OBJECT>
I know how to change all the values of this object so it works with Crystal2008 except one: the codebase.
I have gone to IIS, and under the virtual folder "crystalreportviewers12" I don't see any JavaPlugin folder, there's only the JavaViewer folder, and there isn't any .exe inside...
So, where can I find the .exe for the codebase?
I have tried searching the web for a tutorial or something, but I haven't seen anything for Crystal 2008.
Can anyone help me?
Thank you very much!

This is so wrong, I don't even know which forum this would belong to ( I think I'll move it to the SAP Crystal Reports, version for Eclipse topic Space...
Let's start with this:
I have taken this file from an older version of Crystal,
Don't mix versions. It will not work. Period
Next re:
I don't see any JavaPlugin folder,
If you want a Java solution, I'd recommend using CR for Eclipse which you can download from here:
SAP BusinessObjects - SAP Crystal Reports, Version For Eclipse Download
I would then recommend having a peek here:
CRJ SDK
Developer Help File is here:
https://help.sap.com/javadocs/cr/xi/jrc/en/overview-summary.html
Finally, I'm not sure what references you are making in your VB 6 app, but there is no SDK in CR 2008 that supports VB 6.

Java interface with Crystal Reports

Post Author: [email protected]
CA Forum: JAVA
Hello everyone,I need to build a Java interface for JSP to interact with crystal reports.Could anyone recommend any book or forward me the url's where I can find the related material with examples. Eagerly Waiting for reply!Thanks,Prathima.

Post Author: MJ@BOBJ
CA Forum: JAVA
The latest version of the Java Report Component (JRC) is available from the Diamond website. This download is actually a plugin for Eclipse but you can still use the JRC runtime jars to use the SDK APIs in your JSP page. You will also find lots of resources such as samples, videos, and forums to help you get started. You can also refer to the DevLibrary for more information.

Problem with Crystal reports for Eclipse and Postgres-databases

Hi,
Is there a known problem when using a PostgreSQL-database to create a report with Crystal reports Plugin? When I drag a table, then occurs a error-windows, that the object can't created.
I have found a workaround for solving the problem. After new installing Eclipse Platform Version: 3.4.1 Build id: M20080911-1700 and Crystal reports Plugin 11.8.6.v1371 with JRE 1.6.0_01 the error message allways occurs, when I select a table from a PostgreSQL database (Version 8.2). After restarting eclipse you see the last selected tables in the field explorer and you can drag the table fields in the report. A repeated choice of the same table causes aliases for the table in the field explorer after restarting eclipse.
Error.log:
eclipse.buildId=M20080911-1700

Your issue appears to be a Crystal Reports for Eclipse report designer thing, and not a JRC runtime thing. The JRC runtime does support Type 4 JDBC drivers, but all modern PostgreSQL drivers are Type 4.
The current report designer is more restrictive than the JRC runtime - and PostgreSQL, being not on the supported platforms list, has never been tested with the embedded designer.
Unless there's anybody out there with experience with PostgreSQL and CR4E designer, who would be willing to share their experiences.

How to create cross tab reports using RAS SDK api with Crystal Reports XI

Hi Everybody,
Iam generating reports in a web-based application with Crystal Reports XI using Report Application Server(RAS) SDK API. The columns in my report exceed that of an A4 sized page. So, when I export that report to pdf, only those columns that fit to a page are showing up. To solve, this problem, I thought of using cross tab. But, I donot know how to generate cross tab report using RAS SDK API. I have tried to get some code from the internet. But, I did not find any java code for that.Can some one give me some sample code.It is very urgent.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
The easiest way I use is to create the worksheet as regular table and then when i verify the data I get (non aggregate) I duplicate it as a cross tab.
In the duplication wizard I just need to define the axis (using drag and drop).
if you want to create a cross tab from the beginning you need to define that in the new workbook wizard (check the "cross tab" rather then "table"), chose your fields and define the place you want them.
The data point (the center of the cross tab) is aggregated as to your machine definition and will happen automatically.
for example: to find the amount of receipt by months:
On the left put the "Buyer Name", on top put the "Months" and in the data point put the amount.
What you'll get is something like:
months: jan feb mar apr ......
buyer_name
jhon_smith 100 50 30 250 ......
jhon_doe 80 45 90 453 ........
and so on.....

J2EE, RAS, JRC, and everything to do with Crystal Report XI

Hello,
We are actually trying to make the JAR files provided with Crystal Reports XI Developper Edition.
The goal is to be able to generate a .rpt file based on some RAW data that we will collect from our iSeries Server, therefore giving the .rpt equivalent of the text-only report created with our application on i5/OS.
For the moment we don't care about interfacing the data from the text-only proto-report on the iSeries, we just care about modelling the instance of an .rpt file in Java.
The trouble is that we manage to create the object with ReportClientDocument newDoc = new ReportClientDocument(), but then the newDoc instance of this object is not accessible (the method .isOpen() returns false).
We also tried to open an existing .rpt file with the same methods to no success.
If anyone has any idea, or lead that could allow us to work our way through this wretched APIs, I would be very grateful.

I'm not referring to Servlet threading issues.
I'll clarify.
You have two threads, both entering ReportClientDocument.open(...) method.
Thread 4 is waiting to acquire 'com.crystaldecisions.reports.queryengine.av@15214b9'
Thread 0 is waiting to acquire ''com.crystaldecisions.reports.queryengine.av@12e0415'
So I'm thinking ??? are they the same objects?
My specific question concerning the ReportClientDocument is that both are calling open - i.e., trying to open a new report. You wouldn't be trying to open different reports using the same ReportClientDocument - so was wondering if you've cached the RCD and trying to open two different reports at the same time on the same instance via different threads.
You'd normally tie a ReportClientDocument instance to a HTTP Session, to ensure each user gets their own copy.

Print layout different with crystal report 2008 runtime

Hi,
I have reports which I print on a pre printed stationary. With Crystal report 11.5 run time it works fine.
Now I am using Crystal Report 2008 run time and with this I found that layout on the print is different than the actual layout in the design.
The print with CR 2008 run time is not exactly matching with the pre printed stationary. Whereas it is working fine with the 11.5 run time.
Can anyone please help?
Thanks,

Invalid export DLL or export format" with Crystal Reports 2008 to Excel xls

We are experiencing the same issue as reported in the sticky thread. I answered in that thread, but thought that I woudl open a new thread to keep track of this issue. I can give you the responses to your questions you have requested in that thread:
Server Operating System - MS Windows Server 2003 R2 Enterprise Edition SP2
Version of the .NET Framework - MS .NET Framework 3.5 SP1
How did you deploy? - Installed CR 2008 SP1 runtime with msi package
If you deployed with CRRuntime_12_0_mlb.msi - what was the date of the file and its size? CRRuntime_12_1_mlb.msi dated Sept. 16, 2008 12:55:00 PM, size: 56,717,824 bytes
What is the file version of crpe32.dll on your server? You'll find this in the C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86 directory - File was created 9/13/08 11:21AM, 9451KB File Version: 12.1.0.882
How many libpng10.dll files are on your system? List all instances. - 1 instance is on the system located in C;\Program Files\Business Objects\Business Objects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86 directory. It is dated 9/13/08 8:52:26AM 132KB version 1.0.30.1
Any additional comments - We have tried to export to PDF and this works successfully. However, we can not export to xls or rft formats.
CRXF_XLS.dll is 905KB 9/13/08 9:38AM Version 12.1.0.882
CRXF_RTF.dll is 509KB 9/13/08 9:35AM Version 12.1.0.882
We also have the CR XIR2 server runtime installed side by side on the server as we migrate from CR 2008 to CR XIR2 SP4 ( where this function does work currently).
Please let me know if you need anything additional.

"Invalid export DLL or export format" with Crystal Reports 2008
Posted: Sep 27, 2008 12:36 AM       E-mail this message      Reply
I've included this sticky because we are seeing many posts in this forum regarding the error Invalid export DLL or export format when exporting to Excel and RTF in .NET applications using the Crystal Reports 2008 .NET SDK.
Issue
Exporting a Crystal Report to Excel or RTF format
.NET application using the Crystal Reports 2008 runtime (version 12.0)
error Invalid export DLL or export format
We've been doing some testing in-house and haven't reproduced this behavior. In order to figure this issue out we will need your help. If you are getting this error please reply to this post with the following information:
Server Operating System
Version of the .NET Framework
How did you deploy?
If you deployed with CRRuntime_12_0_mlb.msi - what was the date of the file and its size?
What is the file version of crpe32.dll on your server? You'll find this in the C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86 directory
How many libpng10.dll files are on your system? List all instances.
Any additional comments
What We Know
The error invalid export DLL or export format may occur when exporting to Excel and RTF formats in .NET applications utilizing the Crystal Reports 2008 runtime (v 12.0)
Other export formats like Adobe PDF, Crystal Reports, CSV all export with no error
Some customers have resolved this by adding C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86 to their environment path variables
This may have something to do with the file libpng10.dll. Both crxf_xls.dll and crxf_rtf.dll are dependent on it.
Thanks in advance for your co-operation. We hope to figure out what is causing this issue soon.

Hi,
I am also having the same problem, except that I am not using Crystal Report 2008 runtime but the actual Crystal Report 2008 installation on Windows XP SP2 with VS Studio 2005 (VC++). MS .NET Framework 2.0.
Cyrstal Report XIR2 was installed on the same machine but uninstalled before installing Crystal Report 2008.
So only one instance of libpng10.dll and found in C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86
Crpe32.dll        3/1/2008 version 12.0.0.683
Crxf_xls.dll       3/1/2008 version 12.0.0.683
Crxf_rtf.dll         3/1/2008 version 12.0.0.683
crdb_oracle.dll 3/1/2008 version 12.0.0.683
libpng10.dll       3/1/2008 version 1.0.30.0             122880 bytes
There is no problem for exporting to pdf, html, word, csv, Crystal Report. If I create a testing report without any data from database, the testing report can then be exported also to rtf and xls.
Oracle 11.1.0.6 is the DB for the reports.
Adding C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86 to the path did not resolve my problem.
Any idea to fix this issue?
Thanks

select ''

Error when opening a BW query with Crystal Reports

Hi all,
I am having problems when opening a BW query with Crystal Reports, the strange thing is that it only happens with
the bo user I have created. If I use a user that already exists and that has SAP_ALL authorization it works.
I don't know if this could be an authorizations issue, but I have created a role with all the authorizations stated in the manual.
The error I am getting is the following:
"An error occurred while generating a new report template. Error in UNKNOWN.RPT file"
Does anyone know what this could be?
Thanks

Well,
I cannot access the system now. But I think it is not an issue of authorization, because I assigned all the good user's role to the bo user,
and even with that, it still don't work.
Thanks

Why we need ABAP if we can connect With Crystal Reports to SAP R/3

Hi,
I am new to Crystal reports.I came to know that we can connect SAP R/3 by using SAP InfoSet,SAP Table Cluster and Function connectivity in Crystal Reports.So we can generate reports for SAP R/3 database with out need of ABAP.So why we need to go ABAP module.Is there any disadvantages if we dont use ABAP to generate reports or we can use always Crystal Reports to generate Reports for R/3 database?

Hi,
it is correct that you can built a Crystal Report without the need to use ABAP, but we have lots of customers that have invested over the years into ABAP Routines and Crystal REports is able to leverage those as well. So with Crystal Reports you have the choice to leverage existing ABAP Functions as a source for reporting - which might help to leverage complex processing on the backend - or to use InfoSets and tables.
