Crystal Report 11 Server License Problem

Hello,
We installed Crystal Report 11 server, In CMC we the license information is displayed as
Gesamtzahl der lisenzen - 5
Does this mean we have 5 licenses?
We tried to excute our application (which was working fine with Crystal Report X) , but we get an error as given below:
"Alle 0 Lizenzen für den gleichzeitigen Zugriff (Concurrent Access Licenses) werden derzeit verwendet, oder der Lizenzschlüssel für Ihr System ist abgelaufen. Versuchen Sie es später noch einmal, oder wenden Sie sich an Ihren Systemadministrator, um zusätzliche Lizenzen zu erhalten"
Could anyone help on the possible solution. Does the above error mean we do not have Concurrent Access Licenses
Thanks in Advance!!!

Please re-post if this is still an issue to the Business Objects Forum or if you have a valid support contract create a case on line.

Crystal Report 2008 Runtime License

Hi,
I have a Crystal Report 2008 designer license.
I want to design reports and distribute to my clients.
Clients will just execute the reports through my application with the Crystal Report 2008 Runtime.
There is runtime available on:
https://websmp130.sap-ag.de/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/bobj_download/main.htm
While installing the runtime it does not ask for any license key.
my query is do we require any license to use the Crystal Report 2008 Runtime?
Can we install the same runtime on web servers so that multiple clients can use it.
Do we require any license for the Runtime on server?
Thanks,
Abhijit

Hi Thanks for the reply.
Just to make it sure is that means?
1. Crystal Report 2008 Runtime is free for the client applications.
2. Crystal Report 2008 Runtime requires the 'SAP Crystal Reports runtime server license' to use the runtime on server applications.
Is it correct.
Thanks,
Abhijit

Problem with Crystal Report Job Server Destinations

I am using Crystal Reports XI Server and I am having problems with scheduling. I believe that the problem is that I have not enabled any destinations under the Crystal Reports Job Server. The following is an observation list:
-Enabled and set up all destinations for other servers, such as the Destination Server.
-Have been able to use Infoview to directly email, inbox, and file save reports in different formats (I believe the Destination Server controls this, right?)
-All servers are enabled in the Central Configuration Manager
-Have been able to go into the Crystal Reports Job Server within the CMC, but I DO NOT FIND ANY destinations to enable (why is this?)
-Have not been able to schedule an instance of any report (neither email, nor inbox, nor file, ...nothing)
Could somebody please help me with this? Is this a limitation to the Crystal Reports XI Server vs the Enterprise edition? Is there something else I am missing? I have never been able to successfully schedule a report.

Thank you for the input, but I have not yet solved my problem. Please allow me to provide some additional information which may give more hints:
I have Crystal Reports XI Server R2 installed as 5 named user license (version that comes with developer)
The following servers are enabled in CMC (which is all of them)
-Input.DomainNameSQL
-DomainNameSQL.cacheserver
-DomainNameSQL.cms
-DomainNameSQL.destinationjobserver (has all destinations enabled)
-DomainNameSQL.eventserver
-DomainNameSQL.ListofValuesJobServer (no destination tab)
-DomainNameSQL.pageserver
-DomainNameSQL.programjobserver (has all destinations enabled)
-DomainNameSQL.RAS
-DomainNameSQL.reportjobserver (has destinations tab, but there are no destination entries to enable! Object type is: CrystalEnterprise.Report and detail: IDL:omg.org/CORBA/UserException:1.0
. Details: %2.'
These are the ONLY two event IDs that appear after I schedule the report instance. No other events occur.
Are there any other logs that I can check? How do I look up what event ID 45387 and 45385 are?
Thanks!

Problems installing Crystal Reports 2008 Server on Windows Server 2008 serv

I attempted to install the Crystal Reports 2008 product on one of our Windows Server 2008 servers.
After installing disk 1
Crystal Reports 2008 Server attempts to open up in IE...... but opens up to a blank page
http://bmlfileserver:8080/CmcApp/
anyone have any idea why? why does it not prompt for the second CD?
Is this a compatibility with Windows Server 2008?

I'm attempting to install CRS 2008 on Windows Server 2008 as well, and I'm running into a few issues. Did you ever get yours resolved? I started by trying to use IIS, but I'm uninstalling it completely now and will try Tomcat instead. Which route did you go?

Problems starting Crystal Reports Page Server and Report Application Server

Hi,
We have migrated to a new server and I have re-installed our Crystal Reports Server XI R1.
It is being installed on a Windows 2003 SBS Premium Server with MSSQL 2005 Workstation Edition
I have been told that I need to start the following Crystal services after installation.
1) Crystal Reports Page Server
2) Report Application Server
These services simply wont start
When I try to start Crystal Reports Page Server, I get a Visual Studio Just-In-Time Debugger window that says...
An unhandled Win32 exception occured in pageserver.exe [14892], subsequently, another window pops up [svrmgr] that says
"The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion"
Also, when I try to start the Report Application Server, I get another VS JIT debugger window that says
An unhandled win32 exception occurred in crystalras.exe [12748]
I also get the same SvcMgr Window that says..."The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion"
Thanks all
Paul

Hello Paul,
I recommend to post this question to [the dedicated BusinessObjects Enterprise Administration forum|BI Platform;.
That forum is monitored by qualified technicians and you will get a faster response there.
Also, all BOE Administration queries remain in one place and thus can be easily searched in one place.

Thanks for your help

This error occurs after an initial install, when the Oracle suite is installed logged in as the user(who has admin rights on the machine). If this is the case,
1.Go to Services (Admin Tools > Services)
2.Double click the Oracle services( BI Server or Presentation or TNS Listener).
3.Go to Log On tab
4.If local system account is checked , un-check that option. Check "This Account" option
5.Give the user information for that machine(e.g domain\username)
6.Specify password associated with the user ( the username/pwd that is used to login to the machine)
7.Confirm pwd and click Apply.
8.re-start the service.
This is what i did , and it worked.
good luck and hopefully oracle addresses these issues , they become frustrating to use the product.
Thanks,
Ram

How to connect Crystal Report 2008 server with SAP BI/BW server

Can you please guide me how to connect them?
Aslo how can i get the free trial version of Intergration kit ..here please provide me the entire full path of site(to download the Integration Kit).....
Any inputs would be appreciated!!

Hi Michelle,
Older versions of CR would allow you to run CR from a network share point but you still had to have a license for each user. Current versions of CR do not allow you to do this any more, possibly using a Citrix or Terminal Server would allow this but you still need a license for each user. Older versions had a Network install option.
And as suggested exporting to PDF or some other format is fine for end users viewing your output. They are not using CR but Adobe Reader or Word etc. to view the reports, they just can't use the Designer to view the reports.
Hope this is clear now?
Thank you
Don

Crystal Reports Job Server - Default destinations not available

Greetings,
Currently I'm installing Crystal Reports XI onto a new server.
When scheduling reports they are stuck in a 'pending' status which records the following error in the windows event log:
Transport System exception for backend plugin DLL type newIJob():: Couldn't get IJob interface: CORBA exception! Object type is: CrystalEnterprise.Report and detail: IDL:omg.org/CORBA/UserException:1.0
. Details: %2.
After further investigation I discovered the Crystal reports job server has no defaul destinations, however the servers Destination Job Server and Program Job Server do have the default instances.
Firstly I assume the error reported in the event log is due to there are no destinations, as the scheduler won't know where to send out to.
Can anyone help in advising how to ensure the reports server had some default destinations?
I have restarted the server and rebooted the Crystal reports server too.
Thanks
Rob

Crystal Reports Job Server

What is the maximum number of jobs allowed through a Crystal Reports Job Server?
We have 4 Crystal Reports Job Servers out of which 1 is not being used. Maximum jobs allowed for the other 3 CR Job Servers are 5-7.
What is the limit?? Can I increase the number without effecting the system performance?
Please advice.
Thanks!

Which version of BO do you use?
There is a parameter setting for this that can be set over the CMC. The parameter is called Maximum Concurrent Jobs. If yaou set this to 0 then the number of maximum jobs is calculated automatically. In XI 3.1 you can see the calculated number in the Metrics of the crytsal report job server.
Increasing the number of maximum concurrent job will affect the performance depending on the number of the submitted jobs. The higher this number the more reports will be processed in parallel and thus the more load your system has to handle.

Crystal Report Embedded server 2008

Hi SAP,
I have reports created in Crystal reports 2008 sp1 designer. Reports are created using stored procedures.Reports are called through .net application and placed at Crystal Report Embedded server 2008.If Reports are at local machine they work fine.If reports are at Crystal Report Embedded server 2008 it prompts for parameter and database credentials.
Here is my code
CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument rd= new CrystalDecisions.CrystalReprots.Engine.ReportDocument();
String rptfilepath="ras://C:\Reports\EmbededRpt.rpt";
Rd.ReportAppServer="RasServer";
Rd.FileName= rptfilepath;
Rcd=rd.ReportClentDocument;
System.Data.Dataset ds = this.GetData();
Rd.SetDataSource(CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.DataSetConversion.DataSetConverter.Convert(ds));
CrystalReportViewer1.ReportSource=rcd.ReportSource;
Any response will be appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi,
I believe Crystal Report Embedded server 2008 does not come with .NET SDKs. You need to wait for its SP1 release that should make make .NET sdks available for the application.
Thanks.

HostXYZ.cacheserver - Crystal Reports Cache Server: Failed to start/stop

Hi,
We are unable to open any of the BO Crystal Reports through our 'Clarity PPM Web Application'.When we logged on to the BO CMC portal in the production environment, In the 'Servers' section, we could see the 'HostXYZ.cacheserver in 'Stopped' state.When we are trying to restart that server, it results in an error "HostXYZ.cacheserver - Crystal Reports Cache Server: Failed to start/stop".Could you please help me how to proceed further?Please let me know, if you need any other information.
Thanks,

WHich version of BO do you use? Go into the CMC navigate to Servers and check the Metrics section of your Central management server. There should be a version number like x.y.z.w there. Can you please post it here?

Crystal Report 2008 Server - Windows AD authentication

I have a Windows 2008 Standard 32bit Server running CRS2008
I performed a default install with ONLY WACS. I have looked through every possible document I could find to get kerberos working and am still having trouble. The specific error I am getting when trying to logon to the CMC is:
Account Information Not Recognized: Active Directory Authentication failed to log you on. Please contact your system administrator to make sure you are a member of a valid mapped group and try again. If you are not a member of the default domain, enter your user name as UserName@DNS_DomainName, and then try again. (FWM 00006)
The AD group is mapped, I have followed every Kerberos setup document to the letter and still nada.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Resetting Record Selection Formula on report on Crystal Reports XI Server

We have Crystal reports with recurring schedules running on Crystal Reports XI Server. If I change the Record Selection criteria in Crystal Reports Designer and do a "Save As" to overwrite the previous version of the report on the server, it does not reset the Filter -> Record Selection on each scheduled instance of the report. This means that the new criteria I've added to the base report is effectively ignored.
I understand why this would be the default behaviour but given that we have a condition that must be added to a large number of reports which are scheduled many times, I need a way to be able to force a reset of the Record Selection to that of the Crystal Report.
Any ideas how to do this?
Thanks

Hello Alan,
There's no way to alter parameters for an already-created report schedule, as you've noted.
As implied in your message, this is so that no updates on a report would affect, and potentially break, already existing scheduled report instances.
It's recommended to make changes and reschedule. As you indicate, this may be effort intensive if there are many such scheduled.
If such changes have to be done regularly, then report redesign to parameterize the filter would be recommended - but I'm assuming this is not your situation.
Sincerely,
Ted Ueda

Crystal Report JRC and JNDI problem

I need to convert one of our internal web application from using Crystal Report Server 10 RAS to using Crystal Report XI Java Component (JRC). I found several examples from SAP/BusinessObjects but am stuck with a database connectivity problem.
The basic enviornment info:
JBoss 4.0.3 SP1
Crystal Report JRC XI
Windows XP/Server 2003
JDK 1.5.x
MS SQL Server 2005
The error I am getting is "Error finding JNDI name (xxx)", although the application is already using the same JNDI and was able to display data on the web.
I added debug code:
                Context initialContext = null;
                try {
                    initialContext = new InitialContext();
                    DataSource ds = (DataSource) initialContext.lookup("java:MYAPP");
                    String t = ds.toString();
                    log.debug(t);
                } catch (NamingException e) {
                    log.error(e);
I was able to get the data source successfully. The actual report file uses JDBC with JNDI named as "MYAPP". When I call the viewer, it gives
Error finding JNDI name (MYAPP)
message.
Any comment or help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

How are you setting your connection info?
This is what we do:
IConnectionInfo connectionInfo = new ConnectionInfo();
PropertyBag propertyBag = new PropertyBag();
propertyBag.put("JNDI Datasource Name", reportJndiName);
propertyBag.put("Database DLL", DATABASE_DLL); // required!!! (but we don't actually provide a DLL, or even run in windows)
connectionInfo.setAttributes(propertyBag);
connectionInfo.setKind(ConnectionInfoKind.SQL);
ConnectionInfos connectionInfos = databaseController.getConnectionInfos(null);
IConnectionInfo oldConnectionInfo = connectionInfos.getConnectionInfo(0);
databaseController.replaceConnection(oldConnectionInfo, connectionInfo, null, DBOptions._useDefault );
