CR XI Database Connector Error 220 Out of Range with Remedy AR System

Post Author: schilders
CA Forum: Data Connectivity and SQL
Good Afternoon,
We just upgraded to CR XI and I'm now attempting to refresh a report based on our Action Request System. I received the database connector error 220 out of range and cannot refresh the report. Has anyone else experienced this issue? If so, how did you fix it?
Thanks,
Sid

Unknown Database Connector Error using Crystal Report XI with Windows 7

My current configuration is:
Windows XP Professional
Crystal Reports XI Professional
Oracle Client 10g
This is working great, however we are switching to Windows 7 Professional and I need to get this same configuration working on the new machines.
I have loaded Windows 7 Professional and Oracle Client 10g. Oracle makes the data connection without any problems. I loaded Crystal Reports XI Professional, but it will not connect to the Oracle database. It keeps giving me the Unknown Database Connector error. Can anyone assist me with this problem? This is the final software package that is holding up the project.
Thanks

Hello Uher,
Thanks for quickly response.
I have attached the details of my issue, the most confuse part is that I'm not sure is there any conflict btw software.
Appreciating your professional advise.

Database Connector Error in Crystal Reports

Hi,
I have a report which has two sub reports. One of the sub reports use a view to fetch data while the other uses a SP. Now the problem that i am facing is as follows-
The sub-report using the stored procedure fails when i execute the main report but if i first execute the sub report with the SP, and then again run the main report, it works fine.
I tried an ODBC trace to find out why this was failing. When the main report is run for the first time, the sub report was not executed properly. The sub report uses a SP which expects two parameters. So at the first run, only one parameter gets passed to the sub report. however on the second run, the sub report successfully gets both the parameters.
The error that is encountered says:
Database Connector Error: 'HY000:[DataDirect][ODBC Oracle driver][Oracle]ORA-06550: line 1, column 58: PLS-00103: Encountered the symbol ")" when expecting one of the following:
(-+ case mod new not null others <an identifier>
<a double-quoted delimited-identifier> <a bind variable> avg
count current exists max min prior sql stddev sum variance
execute for all merge time timestamp interval date......
Could any one please help on this one? I am almost crazy trying to figure this out.

Rashmi.

Please re-post if this is still an issue to the Data Connectivity - Crystal Reports Forum or purchase a case and have a dedicated support engineer work with you directly

Crystal Reports: Unexpected database connector error

Hi experts,
I have a Web Module DC that uses JSP to show Crystal Reports. In my report I use POJO as datasource. The POJO itself is a JPA entity and is located in other EJB Module DC that has dependency with the Web Module DC. At design time everything looks fine and I can retrieve the data I need from other EJB Module with Session Beans but as a result I see the following error: "Unexpected database connector error". The architecture is the following:
SessionBean EJB Module----
|
                                                   >>dependency to >> Web Module DC with Crystal Reports
JPA Entities EJB Module----

And in my report as datasource I use entity from the JPA EJB Module. And the source in my jsp is the following:
     Object object = null;
     try {
          Context c = new InitialContext();
          object = c
                    .lookup("ejb:/appName=sap.com/slauto_viewer_app, beanName=GeneralBean, interfaceName=com.sap.crs.slautoviewer.beans.GeneralBeanLocal");
          Class clazz = object.getClass();
          try {

                         "getGeneralDataByHostAndID");
               List<General> generals = (List<General>) method
                         .invoke(object,

Unexpected Database Connector Error - Help please !!

Hi,
I am trying to use stored procedure in the crystal report, that comes bundled with RAD7. The following code I got from http://diamond.businessobjects.com/node/520 for using the stored procedure. I am getting 'UnexpectedQueryEngineError' on JRCCommunicationAdapter when trying to establish data connection to add the stored procedure to the report. I tried the same example above for adding table to the report by modifying 'Procedure' to 'Table' and it worked fine.
I really need to use the stored procedure in the report and get to have this working soon. Immediate help is greatly appreciated.

Unexpected Database Connector Error when rpt has parameters (CR4JE)

Hello,
I am trying to call a crystal report from my web-based JBoss application. If the report does not have a parameter, the report is displayed just fine. When the report has a parameter, a parameter screen is displayed. When I enter the parameter information and press OK, the report gives "Unexpected Database Connector Error". This applies for both String type parameters and Number type parameters. Have provided the code below for the xhtml page that contains the bocrv tag and the "reports" bean that it references. The database is Oracle10g (10.2.0.4).
Many thanks,
Travis

Error in File (report server\ report.rpt): Database Connector Error

New installation of XI R2 - using Crystal Reports Version 11.5.8.826 for developement against Oracle DB.
Currently have around 20 reports running on XI (need to import ~1500 reports from Crystal Enterprise 10, but waiting to resolve this issue)
Some reports sometimes (not always) get the following error:
Error in File (report server\ report.rpt): Database Connector Error
If the report is re-scheduled, report will sometime run fine and sometimes gets the same error again.
There seems to be no logical way to determine which parameters will cause the report to fail or when.
I'm experiencing the problem on about 3 reports only - All against the same DB and only occassionally. These 20 reports were developed with CR XI and all run against the same Oracle DB.

I've got the same problem- the reports run fine in Crystal, but sometimes (not everytime) they fail in InfoView with "Database Connector Error" message. My report doesn't contain any data, just 8 sets of 4 subreports in different footer sections, which each connect to a different stored procedure. The report is to help with our server checks: we have a set of 4 different stored procedures which run on each of 8 different servers making 32 different SPs and there is a subreport in this report for each.
It does seem to be random whether this problem occurs or not- I have scheduled the report to run regularly (1 recurring instance) and sometime it works, sometimes not, but always the same failure message. I have increased the success rate by allowing the report to re-try on failure, but this does take time, and isn't really curing the problem.
I wonder whether this error could be caused by a delay in one of the SPs returning its data, and the report timing out since no data is being returned. Would anyone know whether this is likely to be the cause, and if so how to fix it? Or any suggestions what else it could be?
Thanks,
Tom

Error in file ...rpt : Database Connector Error

Hello everyone,
I recently came across a strange problem whose source i can't find. I am using printToPrinter function to print a report to a printer. My application prints more than 300 reports continuously one after the other. The way i do this is as follows:
1. I create the datasource in asp.net
2. I insert the datasource in crystal reports datasource property
3. I call printToprinter
4. I close and dispose the ReportDocument object that i use to do the previous steps.
5. I continue to the next report and so on...
When i run the application from my development machine the reports print successfully. When my client whose pc is far away tries to print, sometimes and not always, one of the reports crashes in the line of code where i have put the printToPrinter method and the error is :
Error in file c:\windows\temp\myreport.rpt :
Database Connector Error
Does anyone know what causes this strange behavior? And why does this happen occasionally?
Thanks a lot in advance!

You're closing the reports after you finish printing them, but are you calling .Dispose() on them? The Crystal SDK is really a wrapper around COM objects. Code written in Visual Studio does not automatically memory manage COM objects well (if at all!) so you have to do one of two things: either explicitly call .Dispose() when you're done with a report or put the report in a "Using" structure like this (assuming C# code behind - I don't know how this works in VB!):
Using (ReportDocument myRpt = New ReportDocument())
//insert code to load and print report here
Another issue might be due to network latency. If your user is indeed "far away" from where the application is running and is printing to a printer local to him, then any network slow-down or things like packet errors would affect communication between the application and the user and cause the print command to error out.

Database Connector error: 'cannot obtain error message from server'

I am using Oracle stored procedures and I have used IN parameters for input and INOUT parameter of REF_CURSOR TYPE for returning resultset in Crystal Report 2008 by using package. Now when I am trying to add the package in the Crystal Report, parameter input box prompts, I enter some values and gets Database Connector error: 'cannot obtain error message from server'.
But when I do not use INPUT parameters and use OUT parameter of REF_CURSOR type it runs well without any issues.
We are using ODBC connection for Oracle.
Kindly suggest.

Hello,
Search the Knowledge Base for "oracle store procedures" and you'll find a document on how to write a SP so CR can use them.
Thank you

Unknown Database Connector Error in CR XI R2 sp6

I'm getting an "Unknown Database Connector Error" when I try to Set Data Source Location. This is effecting all of my reports and is happening on multiple copies of CR XI. I'm trying to connect to MS SQL using an ODBC (RDO) connection. The reports were initially working fine connecting to the datasource and then something changed. The current connection is blank and when I try to create a new connection I get the above error.
I tried updating CR to the latest version (what a pain! kept running into the Missing CrystalReport.msi problem). Finally figured out how to fix that but the updates did not solve my connection problem.
I ran the SQL Connectivity Test app and here are the results:
SQLDriverConnect Successful
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Changed database context to 'I3_IC'.
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Changed language setting to us_english.
ODBC Version is : 03
SQL Driver Name is : SQLSRV32
SQL Driver Version is : 03.86.3959
SQL Driver Supported ODBC Version is : 03
SQL DBMS Name is : Microsoft SQL Server
SQL DBMS Version is : 10.00.2531
I am running Crystal on a Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition system. It's a developement and testing server. I also tried running CR on a Windows XP workstation connection to the same SQL server with the same results.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am totally stumped.

Hello,
mmmmmm.. From the driver name it's SQL Server 2000 you are using?
Have a look at your PATH statement to see if MS SQL is in there. It should look something like this:
Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600]
(C) Copyright 1985-2001 Microsoft Corp.
C:\>path
PATH=C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\80\Tools\Binn\;.....
It may be that your ODBCINI in the registry is corrupted so removing all and adding them back in may help. Use the ODBC Administrator to remove your DSN's, don't modify the registry.
Also create your DSN's using the System tab so all users and processes have access to them.
Thank you
Don

VB2005 with Crystal Report XI and MS Access - Database Connector Error:

Post Author: jvaldeziii
CA Forum: .NET
"Database Connector Error:"
does anybody there whose got an idea with this problem?
Im using VB2005 and im trying to show a report using CR XI with a Ms Access database...
Whenever i used a CRAXDRT.Report.SQLQueryString? my application has an error "Database Connector Error"
but whenever i omit this single line of code CRAXDRT.Report.SQLQueryString?
crxReport.SQLQueryString = "Select * from tblPersonal where EMP_ID like '0%'"
Or either i replace it with a CRAXDRT.Report.RecordSelectionFormula?
crxReport.RecordSelectionFormula = "{tblPersonal.IDNo} like '*'"
it works fine and it show the report and data...
But?? i have to use more flexible filter condition like "SQLQueryString" like using LEFT OUTER JOIN or even just a simple query string in sql query...
but using "SQLQueryString" gives me a head ache to figure it myself... I got this frustrating error in my application... "Database connector error"
thats why i need help... please anybody has a good idea to resolve this problem "Database connector error" please refer to my code if there's something missing or lacking in my code...
Here's my sample code:
Private Sub frmCrystalReport_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Try
ChildFormAutoSizeFit(Me)
Me.Cursor = Cursors.WaitCursor
Me.MdiParent = frmMain
crxApp = New CRAXDRT.Application
crxReport = crxApp.OpenReport(reportPath & "\EmployeeRecord.rpt", CrystalDecisions.Shared.OpenReportMethod.OpenReportByDefault)
crxDataBase = crxReport.Database
crxTables = crxDataBase.Tables
For Each crxTable In crxTables
crxTable.Location = DataSource
crxTable.SetLogOnInfo("Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data source=" & reportPath, "myEmpDB.mdb", "UserName", "myPassword")
Next crxTable
'Note1: this line crxReport.SQLQueryString gives me the headache "Database Connector Error"
crxReport.SQLQueryString = "Select * from tblPersonal"
'Note2: this line crxReport.RecordSelectionFormula works fine
'crxReport.RecordSelectionFormula = "{tblPersonal.IDNo} like '*'"
AxCRViewer1.ReportSource = crxReport
AxCRViewer1.ViewReport()
crxDataBase = Nothing
crxTable = Nothing
crxTables = Nothing
crxReport = Nothing
crxApp = Nothing
Catch ex As Exception
MsgBox(ex.ToString())
Finally
Me.Cursor = Cursors.Default
End Try
End Sub
Please anybody there who can resolve this problem or even just a good idea to share?? Please...
A lot of appreciation to someone or anybody who can help with this... thanks in advance....

You may want to move/ask this question in the "Other" sdk forum since this is not the CR.NET SDK, but actually RDC/COM SDK.
You are using the RDC in .NET, which is unsupported/untested so there is no way to know if it is a .NET specific issue or an issue with the RDC.
One of the COM folks may be of more help in that forum.
Good luck with your project.

Database Connector Error from CMC

I get database connector error when I schedule a report from CMC for Previous months begin and end date.For other critieria the report works fine. It works when I give previous dates to Trnasaction Post date > 10/01/2010 and Trnasaction Post date < 10/31/2010.But When I write the sql to get these dates and replace the dates with this logic for begin and end date.After 10-15 minutes or after 30 minutes I get Database connecotr error in CMC. This logic works fine for other reports created by other developers and when I apply the same for their reports they run fine.In this case This report is eactly save as of another report.That report works fine for this kind of a criteria.But this report does not.

Unknown Database connector Error - Crystal Reports 2008 and OLE DB

Hi,
I want to create a report based on OLE DB provider.
Once I Select it from the Database Expert list I get this Error: "Unknown Database Connector Error", and the list is empty.
I am using Crystal Reports 2008 on Win XP SP2.
SQL Server 2005 is installed on the local machine.
If I create a UDL File and double click, I can see all OLE DB Providers on the machine.
What am I missing ?
Thanks,
Yuval.

Hi Friends,
Thank you all for trying to help.
- The installed MDAC version is 2.8 (It comes with XP SP2). I have tried installing it again and it says that it is already installed.
- I am not using a bussiness view. Just the simplest blank report in CR2008. I am not able to start it using OLE DB, once I want to choose a provider - I get the error, before even entering connection details such as username and password.
- I am able to build an ODBC report, but when trying to view it using Crystal Reports Windows Form Viewer (from within a .Net application) I get an error: "Failed to Open The Connection". It happens also with reports built on other machines using OLE DB.
Same report works fine with the same application on different machines and I cannot figure out what is the difference.
I think Something on my machine is not right.
Any suggestions ?
Thanks,
Yuval.

Database Connector Error -Crystal Reports

Hi all,
I am using Crystal reports 2008 to design reports for IDM 7.1.The DB is SQL Server 2005.
I am able to design and fetch correct data from the databases and things work fine in the Crystal report tool. But when I try to call the task from IDM-UI , I am getting a strange error and the job fails.
The error message goes like tis:
Failed generating report BasicRoleComposition85837.pdf
com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.lib.ReportSDKException: Unexpected database connector error---- Error code:-2147467259 Error code name:failed
putNextEntry failed storing85731
I checked the constants and the its all set correctly. I checked the SQL too,it also seems to be ok.
I really cant make out what went wrong.It would be great if someone can help me out with this.
Thank you.

Database connector error - building crystal xir2 report from univ?

Folks,
I am attempting to create a crystal xir2 report using an otherwise fully functional universe, one that has other webi docs already created. After opening crystal and selecting new report, I log onto the BO server and select objects from the Univ to build the query. Hovever, I get 'Unknown database connector error' when clicking OK.
I recently installed crystal xir2, the same version as my bo server. I checked the cmc and am using the same credentials when logging onto bo enterprise to select the univ from within crystal. Any ideas what is causing this and how to correct the issue?
Thanks.

Hello,
I'm going to move this over to the Report Design forum. Someone there should be able to sort this out for you. I doubt it's a DB connection problem but something in the Universe causing Cr to fail.
Seems no one in the Report Designer forum has any suggestions so I'm again moving this to the Universe Designer forum.
Thanks you
Don
