CR 2008 on SAP BW : Error on file filename : Database Connector Error

Hi,
We are facing a rather strange problem in our Prod box.
When we run a CR with a mandatory parameter from EP or Infoview,
For the first available LOV on Plant, (Plant is the Mandatory Parameter entry for the report)
For the first execution,
the Crystal report fails to execute and throws the following error.
Error on file <filename>: Database Connector Error
When we re-run the report with the same parameters, it executes and displays the result.
We are using Crystal Reports 2008 on SAP BW Query with SAP BW MDX Driver
Since the users currently access this report, we need this get resolved asap.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi,
this is a forum so people will answer questions when they get to it.
if you need help "asap" then I would suggest you open a case with SAP Support

Error in file filename : Database Connector Error

Dears,
I face a problem from several days with one of my deployed reports to CMS.
The problem is the same reports run for some users and other users keeps to give them this error:
Error in file <filename>: Database Connector Error
Note: there is no filteration or any condition on users name and data resulted from this report is one for all users.
I tried everything, even i remove all objects from the report and keep only page headers it works.
But, if i readded any field from my DB object in crystal report the error appears again.
Please help, Thanks in advance.

Hello,
You are using the original release of Cr XI R2. This has likely been fixed after applying all Service Packs and Fix Packs.
You should update the BOE Servers also so before doing so please check with the BOE Administrator.
To get the BOE patches you have to log into Service Market Place. To get CR patches make sure you have your keycode saved and available.
Uninstall CR using the Add/Remove Programs in Control Panel and then use the Full version of CR XI R2 Service Pack 4 and you can then apply SP 6, if it requires SP 5 first please do so:
https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100011802732008E/crxir2_sp4_full_build.exe
https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100013876392008E/crxir2win_sp5.exe
https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100015859952009E/crxir2win_sp6.exe
We do recommend that BOE and CR be on the same patch level.
Thank you

Unable to retrieve Object.Error in File: Unknown Database Connector Error

Hi,
I have deployed two report on BO XI server. Both the reports are designed in Crystal Report designer XI.
I got all database credentilas, saved in CMC by my administrator so that these reports should not prompt me for any database login parameters when I am trying to run them from BOXI test server.
When I am running one of my report, the report is working fine. But this is not the case with other report.
This second report is working well with some inputs.
Case 1 - It is having to input date parameter(Date1 and Date2), when I am entering one input date parameter (Date1) and other (Date2) is set to NULL, it is displaying correct result. But when I am giving any date for Date2 it is throwing me an error -
"Error in File Manager_Agent_Report.rpt: Unknown Database Connector Error
Unable to retrieve Object.
Error in File Manager_Agent_Report.rpt: Unknown Database Connector Error "
Case 2 - Similiarly it is having an other input field which I am using in filetering the records in Report.
If I am setting it to NULL or If I am not giving this field, while entering the input. I am getting an output.
But incase I am giving this particular field then again it is promptig me the above mentioned error.
The report are working fine if I am executing them from crystal report designer.
Please help me to find a solution for the same.
Thanks
Deepak

Deepak, firstly are you trying to connect to one database or two in these reports? I would check the ODBC connections both in server and client machine (testing server or whatever you testing it on). Make sure both connection settings are exactly the same.
Secondly I will check the parameters values under Objects under the CMC and see if there is anything changed there.
Report back if you have checked both and it still giving errors

Database Connector Error : when refreshing the crystal report in Infoview

Hi,
I've created a crystal report on SAP R/3 tables and the report is refreshing fine in my local system. But however when I publish the report to the BOE, and when I try to refresh the report it gives the error:
Error in File <file name>: Database Connector Error. I'm using Crystal reports 2008 and the BOE is XI 3.1.
How can I solve this?
Thanks,
Sanjay

Hey folks,
i suppose we are facing the same error. But where do i check if the key for the server-side integration kit has expired? There is no explicit key in our CMC.
We use BOE XI 3.1.
Thanks in advance!

Error while Connecting Crystal 2008 to SAP.

Hi Experts,
We have a trial version of crystal 2008 installed (The SAP integration Kit is also installed) and I am trying to connect to SAP and develop a report on the SAP Cubes. But when I try to make a Connection to SAP, I get the following error:
Database Connector Error: 'The License key does not include use of the BW Query Driver. Please Contact Business objects for information on how to obtain such a license key.'
Is this a licensing issue with SAP integration kit or Crystal?
Please let me know what would be the probable problem and solution for it.
Thanks for your help in advance!
Phani.

Sap-plugin error when deploying a par file

Hi,
We are getting sap-plugin error when ever we are trying to deploy the application to the portal.Even after restarting the server the problem is not getting solved.
The application we are trying to deploy is perfectly alright as we tested the same earlier.
Can any one provide some inputs to solve this issue.
To add some more points
In brief ,we are not able to deploy our Portal applications . It is giving us error like this
NFO: Detected Portal Archive File: com.abc.par
INFO: Deployment failed - exception caught: Application upload failed: com.abc.par - more detail at: /usr/sap/POD/JC30/j2ee/cluster/server0/apps/sap.com/irj/servlet_jsp/irj/root/web-inf/deployment/pcd/com.abc.par.log
We got this error many times , but after some time , when we restart the portal it works,
this time it is not working even after I restarted the server many times

hi all, i have same problem with upload of .par file, it doesn't work both from the portal and from the NWDS,
here i post first part of log file:
this is sap-plugin.log :

Log error "Could not load file or assembly 'BarcodeConversion' or one of its dependencies. Access is denied. This code work fine in server 2008 but get this error in server 2012

This code work fine in server 2008, but get this error in server 2012. Do yo have any idea?

Need some more info as to where this is installed and how.
First thing to try would be to uninstall the solution and reinstall.
Check the GAC for your assembly as well as web.config.
If you don't see it in one of those places, something went wrong with the install and you'll need to start over.

Error while printing (SAP spool error)

Hi,
I have configured a printer of type 'C : Direct Operating System Call'. On printing a page, an error occurs with the following log entries
SAP spool error log
=====================
Print request processing log
The host spool is reporting errors
Windows/NT error 1775: "A null context handle was passed from the client to the host during a remote procedure call."
Errors occurred processing this print request
Error during print request output. l_rc = 1
There may be no printout
Please. can someone help me out here.
Thanks!
Regards,
Angad

Ok I am upgrading from R/3 46C to ECC 6.0, on the 46c system the printers are configured as follow:
Device type          HPLJ4    : HP Laserjet 4 series
Spool server          sapprod1_PRD_00       sapprod1
Device class          Standard printer
Host spool access method C: Direct operating system call
Host printer
srtroot03.startek.com\srt-dc-c4-sharp
Host name          sapprod1
On the ECC 6.0 system the printers are configured as follows:
Device Type          HPLJ4    : HP Laserjet 4 series
Spool Server          srtsapeccdev1_DEV_00
Server Description
Host               srtsapeccdev1
Device Class          Standard printer
Host Spool Access Method C: Direct operating system call
Host printer
srtroot03.startek.co\srt-dc-c4-sharp
HostName          srtsapeccdev1
The 46c system prints just fine, on the ECC 6.0 systems; I can not get the printers to work. I have made sure that the hosts file on the ECC server has the printer host address, and I get the following error back:
SAP spool error log
=====================
Print request processing log
The host spool is reporting errors
Windows/NT error 5 [
srtroot03.startek.com\srt-dc-c4-sharp]: "Access is denied."
Errors occurred processing this print request
Error during print request output. l_rc = 1
There may be no printout
The access to the Printer Host is wide open, what do I need to do to resolve this issue.

Error while retreiving xml file from database

Hi-
I am trying to configure Planning and getting the following error message at instance configuration step:
"Error while retreiving xml file from database"
We looked at PlanningSystemDB.properties, changes server name to its ip, reinstalled planning, made sure both auth methods are selected (sql server and windows), created new relational repository.. still the same error.

After spending 2+ hrs with Hyperion Support nothing got resolved.. Just to give more background on this problem, we originally reconfigured all Hyperion components to use different SQL server, that is when the problem started happening as soon as we got to Planning Instance Configuration. Could this be the situations when old server name is still somewhere in the system?.. Could this be Shared Services problem.

Error installing SQL 2008 R2 anyversion. Error code: 1605

SQL Server Setup has encountered the following error:
MsiGetProductInfo failed to retrieve ProductVersion for package with Product Code = '{DF167CE3-60E7-44EA-99EC-2507C51F37AE}'. Error code: 1605..
What I've done so far:
1) Had to re-install Windows 7 because I kept getting a pop up that said my windows was unregistered, which it wasn't (known bug) so I re-installed as per MS recommendation.
2) Un-installed SQL 2008 + ran Microsoft Fix It tool.
3) Tried to re-install but I get this error.
4) After I got the error I deleted all the registry entries per instructions available where other's have posted this same problem. Started by reversing key and deleting what I found in the registry.
5) When I continued to get the error I renamed the registry directory UpgradeCodes to UpgradeCodes.old. Still fails with the same error.
6) I've rebooted after every step and I've repeated this many times...
In all cases when I try to re-install it fails with Error code: 1605. At this point when I search the registry for the reversed key it is not found. It's gone.
Not sure what to do next.
Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thx

Hi gridmaster54,
According to your description, you fail to install SQL Server 2008 R2 with the error code 1605. Please help to post SQL Server setup error log for analysis. By default, SQL Server setup summary and detail logs are located in C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL
Server\100\Setup Bootstrap\Log.
Based on my research, this issue could be due to the remains of a previous unfinished installation. To troubleshoot the issue, please pay attention to the points below.
1.Make sure that your account has admin rights and you right-click the setup.exe and choose “Run as administrator” to install SQL Server.
2.Make sure that your account has full control over the following key: HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\UserData\

Crystal Report doesn't prompt for SAP credentials / errors out on refresh

2 Environments tested with same results:

BOE XI 3.1 SP2 & BOE XI 3.1 SP2 FP2.5 
SAP Intg Kit on mirrored SP/FP levels in each environment.

We've been successfully creating Crystal Reports against BEx queries in BW for months now as well as ECC master data. We've also built universes and have WebI reports actively working against similar BEx queries in the same. However, we're getting some curious behavior when we refresh the Crystal Reports against BEx queries in BW. Verified all necessary transports and authorizations have been provided for both authoring, as well as refreshing/viewing on demand, etc.

We've setup all the Crystal Reports we're testing to:

a) Use custom database logon information specified here. 
b) Specify a custom driver, leveraging the crdb_bwmdx driver 
c) Prompt the user for database login

We have not enabled SNC as of yet.

1) When we refresh a WebI report hitting a BEx query with security applied, it doesn't prompt for the credentials, but we confirmed through tracing on the SAP side that if the user hits a paramater it has access to, the data comes through and when we hit a paramater they do not have access to, we can clearly see SAP reject it and it spits out a logical error on the BO side in InfoView and in the WebI logs on the BO server.

2) When we refresh a Crystal Report hitting ECC data, we are prompted for the SAP credentials and everything works as expected

However:

3) When we refresh a Crystal Report hitting a BEx query in BW, we are not promtped for SAP credentials. We immediately get the "LOV" prompts. Now, if we use a test user in SAP that has NO SECURITY restrictions at all and open access to the query, the data comes through. However, as soon as any security is applied to the query level, even if it is SAP ALL, we cannot retrieve the data. Tracing is also strange, as we can see on the SAP side it buffer the selected paramaters, but unlike with the WebI reports, it never shows it reaching the point where it checks each paramater against what the role has access to. An error is then spit back. We run the same queries with the same users within SAP and get normal behavior. It's as though as soon as we apply security to the query the mdx driver doesn't like it. Dependant on the type of InfoView viewer we use, the errors we consistently get on the BO side are:

Interactive Viewer: "Error in File %reportname%: Encapsulating Page Failed" 
Java Viewer: "Error in File %reportname%: Database Connection Error"

Nothing glaring in the event logs on the BO servers or in the Crystal logs that I can see, however just because it isn't spitting a specific error in the crystal logs doesn't mean I'm not missing something because I don't know what to look for behavior wise. To reduce the liklihood that it has to do with the way the report was built, we've tried against the same query by building a report using standard methods, as well as the SAP Toolbar using a very plain jane report. Same behavior.

Thoughts?

>> Which authentication are you using to logon to InfoView ? Whats the configuration in the Universe Connection for Authentication ?
2) When we refresh a Crystal Report hitting ECC data, we are prompted for the SAP credentials and everything works as expected
>> The user is using which authentication ? and against which system does he log on ?

Failed to retrieve data from the database crystal reports 2008 in SAP B1

Hello friends,
I am using Crystal report 2008 with SAP B1 PL 8.8. When I run any report, it runs correctly from Crystal Report. But whenever I try to open the same report through SAP ( Tools -> Preview External Crystal Report ), it prompts the parameters for that report and then open up the crystal report window and throws an Error message ("failed to retrieve data from the database. Details [Database Vendor Code: 156]").
Please any one suggest me the corrective solution.
Thanks in Advance,
Keyur Raval.

I had the same problem in SAP B1 2007. Report worked fine except when it was open from B1. Generally there may be different problems. In my case the same problem was caused by using some procedure which was in a specific schema. Changing the schema into "dbo" solved the problem.

MMC hangs on Windows 2008 and SAP MMC console not coming up

Hi All,
We are running SAP CRM 7. After upgrading Windows 2003 to Windows 2008 R2, SAP is coming up on our J2ee engine. We are able to login to the SAP J2ee application, but SAP MMC hangs. After the reboot, SAP MMC does come up but it hangs while starting the SAP Server Processes. We have to close the MMC from CTRL-ALT-DEL (end process). After that SAP MMC does not come up. Although, we can number number of MMC.EXE running in task manager,but
the SAP MMC window is not displayed.
We have gone through OSS note Note 1326097 - SAP MMC Snap-In crash for certain operations and installed the new version of MMC. But still the error exists. Also, we have installed the VCREDLIST patch and have installed all the DLLs mentioned in OSS SS Note 684106 - Microsoft runtime DLLs.
Also, the event viewer shows the following message

Please suggest.

Hello,
Try to re-create (re-register) the SAP Services (SAP instance services) in services.msc list. Then try to put SAP MMC up.
Or, after recreation of sap instance services, try to reconfigure the sap mmc as well -

Connectivity between SQL Serevr 2008 and SAP BW using Microsoft Connector 1.0

Hi ALL
         I am trying to connect to SSIS 2008 to SAP BW using Microsoft Connector 1.0.
Following are stepes I performed.
1. Created RFC on SAP BW Server.
2. Created Prcess Chain in SAP BW.
3. Created SSIS Package using SAP BI Source. Here I set Execution Mode : P Trigger   Process Chain.
The process chain is executing fine on SAP BW Server, But it is unable to send back a
notification to SSIS package. And here my SSIS package failed.
I am getting following error message :
[SAP BI Source] Information: Process Start Process, variant Start Variant for MSBI has status Completed (instance D8Z84GJ2RLV7WCI2IYK5CZ1R3)
[SAP BI Source] Error: An internal exception occurred.
Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.SapBw.Connectivity.ERPException:
An error occurred during the dispatch of the incoming function. The last return code was "RFC_FAILURE".
Before this error I am getting following messages are :
[SAP BI Source] Information: Process Data Transfer Process, variant Z09_O101 -> Z09_H101 has status Active (instance DTPR_D8Z84GJ2RLVZKYTTUHZRFEG0V)
[SAP BI Source] Information: The component is waiting for a notification.
Is there any way to test the both the way connections? I mean SAP BW -- SSIS &                SSIS --- SAPBW.
Can any one please explain me entire connectivity architecture between SSIS and SAP BW using Microsoft Connector 1.0. (I mean how these RFC are working and how SSIS is pulling the data from SAP BW)

I am having the same problem. We actually loaded data a few times but now it does not work. It is amazing that we cannot find help for this problem. Has anyone been successful using the BI connector 1.1 to load data to a BI system using SSIS. I think
this had to do with either a DLL problem on the machine running SSIS or the Service Pack level of the BI system. I cannot find any documentation showing versions. I have looked through the documentation that was written back in 2008 but can't seem to
get it to work.
Sorry we are trying to push data (BW Destination) to BI it looks like you are trying to get data from BI.
