Crystal report DB connect issue

I am trying to understand why Crystal doesn't keep the database connection.
Overview:
I have Crystal on a company server.
The reports were designed and run under user account1.
I made user account2 and set up Crystal to run on same server with different account.
It was working fine and then the next time I needed to refresh report data, the following screen comes up and I don't know how to resolve it.  The select data source doesn't show list available and the field explorer shows the database and its schema..  I don't know what to code in the Find File DSN because when I look in the folders, there are no options with the correct extension.
Please help.

Hi Barry,
The image you have inserted is not visible (not accessable).  Can you attach once again error message.
Also have created FILE DSN (ODBC) under User or System ?  It should be always under System to make use of other users.

  • Crystal Report Dynamic connection issue ORA-04043 Database Vendor Code 4043

    HI All,
    Ii am getting dynamic connection issue with Crystal Report 2008 and Business View Manager, i have Oracle database,
    i have done following steps
    1 Creating Dynamic Connection (including two connection XDC & YDC)
    2. Creating Data Foundation (Common object available in both connection ie. stored procedure)
    3. Creating Business View (with selected number of elements in business element, like firsta name, lastname)
    I have verified database connectivity from Business view manager, both the connection are working fine bringing different number of rows from two different schemas (different schema but same objects in two schemas)
    4. Database connectivity to different database schemas
    5. Connectivity from Crystal Report (done the connectivity from the repository to business view )
    6. Report Connectivity with first schema shows records
    7 Report Connectivity with second schemas shows error
    as follows Failed to retrive data from the database & on clicking of detail i get following error
    Crystal Reports
    Database Connector Error: 'ORA-04043: object HR.EXCEPTION_REPORT_SUB1_PROC [Database Vendor Code: 4043 ]'
    Q first of all i need to know if dynamic connection using business view manager and crystal report technically possible or not, if yes then please let me know the solution, since we did verified with SQL database and ite work with two different database.
    Q if not possible then are there any options to resolve dynamic deployment of crystal report over multiple schemas with crystal report 2008
    Any help or suggestion will be appriciated, hope some one might have got similar issue
    Thanks in advance

  • Crystal report DataBase Connection Issue.

    I am trying to change the connection string of the report file dynamically base on the connection info in the web.config.

  • Crystal Reports Server 2008 (Linux) - Crystal Reports/MySQL/ODBC Issue

    Hello,
    I have successfully installed CRS '08 on a Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 server.  All services run fine.
    In the CMC, I have uploaded a Crystal Report that connect to a remote MySQL server. 
    I have installed the My SQL ODBC 3.51.11 and .12 Drivers as a System DSN.
    I have proven that the reports run fine in Crystal Reports 2008 directly against the remote MySQL DB server.
    (in Windows but with the same 3.51 ODBC Drivers)
    I have also proven that the database connection works okay from the CRS '08 Red Hat server to the remote MySQL DB server, when also creating a system DSN (using bash ./ODBCConfig)
    The problem is that when I log into the CMC or InfoView, and when I run the Crystal Reports from there, I get an error message:
    "Error in File <MyCrystalReport>: Failed to load database information"
    Is there something wrong with my specific Crystal Reports' Database Configuration? (Right click- Database Configuration)
    I see the driver was registered correctly in the /etc/odbc.ini file
    Am I supposed to set any other ODBC environment variables?
    Is there are firewall issue (port 3306 is already open)?
    In summary, the install was successful, and Crystal Reports can be uploaded and viewed via CMC or InfoView, but I cannot run the Crystal Reports against the database.
    Please advise, Thanks!

    Hi, I'm facing a similar problem. My ODBC DSN never works with CRS. Here are the details:<br><br>
    (1) I  installed the CRS 2008 in /opt/crystalreportsserver_2008_v1/ on a Linux platform. The CRS works well. I created a report with Crystal Reports 2008. This report directly connects to a MySQL server. After I published the report and manually modify its database configuration, I can browse it from InfoView. I'm sure that CRS, MySQL, and a report connecting to MySQL are all good.<br><br>
    (2) Then, I created an ODBC DSN on a Windows platform. This DSN connects to a MySQL server. I created another report with Crystal Reports using this DSN. The report can show the data within Crystal Reports.<br><br>
    (3) Then, I published the second report to CRS, but when I try to browse it, I always get such a message: Failed to open the connection.<br><br>
    I have configured the ODBC for CRS on the Linux server and I think the configuration is correct. This is how I do that: I edited the /opt/crystalreportsserver_2008_v1/bobje/odbc.ini file. In the file I added a data source called ods_telstar. Following is the content of the file:<br><br>
    [ODBC Data Sources]<br><
    CRSQLServerWP=DataDirect 5.3 SQLServer Wire Protocol Driver<br>
    CRSybaseWP=DataDirect 5.3 Sybase Wire Protocol Driver<br>
    CRText=DataDirect 5.3 Text Driver<br>
    %SYBASEDSN%=DataDirect 5.3 Sybase Wire Protocol Driver<br>
    ods_telstar = MySQL<br>
    <br>
    ... <br>
    <br>
    [ods_telstar]<br>
    Description     = ODS on telstar<br>
    Trace       = Off<br>
    TraceFile   = stderr<br>
    Driver      = /opt/crystalreportsserver_2008_v1/bobje/enterprise120/linux_x86/odbc/lib/libmyodbc5.so<br>
    SERVER      = xxx<br>
    USER        = xxx<br>
    PASSWORD    = xxx<br>
    PORT        = 3306<br>
    DATABASE    = ods<br>
    <br>
    In the middle I removed some data source definitions that are by default in the file. Note that I use "xxx" to replace the server name, user, and password. Such information is for internal use and I'm sure the original information is correct. The MySQL ODBC driver file has been put in the correct location. Correct access permissions has been assigned to the file.<br><br>
    I've tried to restart the CRS server, but still the report using ODBC DSN cannot be viewed.<br><br>
    The reason that we want to user ODBC DSN is that we may have many reports to publish. When we design the reports, we specify that they get data through an ODBC DSN such as ods_telstar. If we configure the same DSN on CRS, then we don't need manually modify each report's configuration after we publish them. If these reports are directly connecting to MySQL, then we have to manually modify each one's database configuration after we publish them.<br><br>
    I've no idea what's wrong with all the setup. Any suggestions and comments are appreciated!<br>

  • How to create a Crystal Report to connect to Oracle

    Hi,
    When I create a Crystal report to connect to SQL Server, I create a stored procedure to get all data I need and connect to it from Crystal Report.(In the stored procedure, I created temp tables, used cusor etc to run data.) But now I need to use a Oracle database. I heard I need to create a package and put this stored procedure in this package. Questions:
    1. if I need to create a package, how can I call the stored procedure from it?
    2. Can I create temp table in this procedure too? I need to create some temp tables to join together to get complex data.
    3. if I want the return data from stored procedure, do I still "select ... from ..." or there is another other ways?
    I am so desperated. Please help. I know this are very silly questions. But please.

    Hi Jenny,
    We are also using Crystal Reports for our Oracle Database, we normally just select the tables we want to use or create our own SQL query.
    However, if you really want to use Oracle stored-procedure (which performs faster than a SQL query because the stored procedure is compiled in advance), you can look at this document:
    http://support.businessobjects.com/communityCS/TechnicalPapers/scr_oracle_stored_procedures.pdf
    Hope this will answer your questions.

  • Crystal Report ADO Connection Error

    I have a Crystal Reports created against an MS SQL Server DB using an ADO Connection (crdb_ado.dll). I am using a hardcoded user ID and password for logging into SQL Server, everything works fine when I log from Crystal Reports client, I am able to connect to SQL Server and refresh the report.
    When I publish to BOE and access from Infoview or CMC I get an error "[Failed to open the connection.
    xxxx report Details:  [Database Vendor Code: 17 ]]". I use the same account for SQL server under database config for Crystal report within CMC.
    Please see release info below:
    BOE XI 3.1 FP 3.1 (Windows 2008 server)
    Crystal Reports 2008 FP 3.1
    I have checked the  ADO dll version, size etc. on both client and BOE XI server and it looks the same.
    Are there any additional configuration required for this connection to work from BOE XI?
    I enabled log on BOE side and could not get anymore information other than the above message. We also tried with the SQL Server SA account to make sure this is not an access issue.
    Thanks.

    Hi Don,
    Please see answers below:
    >
    > What happens if you set the logon over ride properties for each instance?
    >
    I select the option "Use same database logon as when report is run" and get the error mentioned in the first message.
    > Also need to know what version of SQL Server you are using and if you are using the Native Client or the OLE DB for SQL Server driver?
    >
    We are using SQL Server 2008. I have tried with the OLEDB for SQL driver and with the Native client. In both the cases I am getting the same error. I also tried to change the OLEDB.sbo file as mentioned in note 1204488.
    Thanks.

  • Crystal Report dialog box issues

    I am very new at .NET, and this is my second post to this forum.
    I've created a Crystal Report within a project using Visual Studio 2005 Professional Edition, on a Windows XP machine.
    The report is handled by a CrystalReportViewer, which has its ReportSource set to the report.
    Via a dialog box, the report asks for a signon and password for a SQL Server database.  Then, via a second dialog box, it prompts for a parameter required by the report.
    All of this works ok, but I have two issues:
    1) I would like to set the database signon and password so that the user doesn't have to enter them each time he runs the report.
    2) If the Cancel button is clicked on any of the dialog boxes, it renders the report unusable until I shut down the application and reopen it.
    I have looked online for two days, but have not been able to find a solution to these above problems.  It is probably simple, but I'm not seeing it.
    I am attaching the relevant code for the button that runs the report.
        Private Sub cmdChecks_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles cmdChecks.Click
                CrystalReportViewer2.DisplayToolbar = True
                CrystalReportViewer2.Visible = True
                CrystalReportViewer2.Height = 600
                CrystalReportViewer2.Width = 1000
                CrystalReportViewer2.Left = 10
        End Sub
    Can anybody help me with this?
    Thank you!

    Hi,
    I would like you to know the code of the logon based on the object models-
    If you are using the ConnectionInfo then use the below code:-
    //For web application
    ConnectionInfo crConnection = new ConnectionInfo();
    // Connection Information
    crConnection.ServerName="D-2818-W2K";
    crConnection.DatabaseName="Northwind";

    crReport.Load(Server.MapPath("CrystalReport1.rpt"));
    Tables crTables=crReport.Database.Tables;
    foreach(CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.Table crTable in crTables)
              TableLogOnInfo crTLOI = crTable.LogOnInfo;
              crTLOI.ConnectionInfo=crConnection;
              crTable.ApplyLogOnInfo(crTLOI);
              crTable.Location=crTable.Location;// for multiple table selection
    CrystalReportViewer1.ReportSource=crReport;
    ====================================================================================
    //For desktop application
    ConnectionInfo crConnection = new ConnectionInfo();
    // Connection Information
    crConnection.ServerName="D-2818-W2K";

    crReport.Load(Application.StartupPath + "//CrystalReport1.rpt");
    Tables crTables=crReport.Database.Tables;
    foreach(CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.Table crTable in crTables)
              TableLogOnInfo crTLOI = crTable.LogOnInfo;
              crTLOI.ConnectionInfo=crConnection;

  • Crystal Report 9 performance issue wehn we move old DB to new DB server

    We are using Crystal Reports 9 version, recently we move to new database server and reports data source are pointing to Old database server and old database server is no longer in the network.
    , Now we have issue with the performance, if the we call the reports from web application, it is talking long to retrieve the report at least 1 min.. , if we manually update the report data source pointing to new server and the reports are pulling in 1 second, Is there any easy solution to update all the report pointing to new server, we have 3000 reports, we can not use manual process, it will take long time and it is also issue with the future if we change the server.
    Thanks!
    Ram

    The 1 minute timeout is due to ODBC driver trying to connect, it's the default timeout you are seeing. There is not tool Cr has to migrate/update database connection info. You can develop your own though or search the web for a third party tool, I'm sure there are lots out there.

  • Crystal Report Universe Connection

    Hello,
    I have a Crystal report developed based on Universe as the data source. Say this report is in Dev environment. Suppose I need to promote this report to Test environment to UAT or production then how is it possible?    
    I have used import wizard using this I am able to move my report from one environment to another. report is successfully moved from source to destination but when I go to refresh the crystal report, an error is thrown (both in Crystal Report designer and Info view) :
    "Failed to open the connection. 
    Details:
    Update of the SQL command from the Universe failed. This report cannot be
    refreshed unless the SQL command is updated from the Universe."
    As such the Dev copy works fine. Please suggest me how to move a report from 1 environment to another.
    If I changes connection manually in UAT Database --> Set Database location -->update then same report work fine,
    But I have multiple reports I cannot manually edit connection of each report.
    Useful details as below.
    Crystal Reports 2008 (Service Pack 1)
    Business Objects 3.1 
    View the connection details in report.
    Set database location
    Expand Universe connection
    Properties - It will show server details of connection- user name - universe name- path of universe
    Kindly advice.

  • Using Crystal Report Data Connection in Xcelcius 2008

    The documentation does not explain how data to populate row, column and details is passed to SWF.
    Can some-one please point how CR Data Connection when created in Xcelcius 2008 is used in Crystal Report Design time ? Is it through Flash variables? Basically more details are needed for "when setup properly" clause. How to map Crystal Reports Fields to Xcelcius Definitions.
    Thanks

    From Doc:
    "With the release of Crystal Reports 2008, it is now possible to embed an Xcelsius-generated SWF file into a Crystal Report and have the SWF consume data from that report. When set up properly, refreshing the data in your Crystal Report will update the embedded SWF.
    To configure your Xcelsius SWF to consume data from its Crystal Rport source data, you must open the Data Manager in Xcelsius and add a new Crystal Report Data Consumer connection. After adding the connection, bind the following ranges to your spreadsheet:  Row Headers, Column Headers, Data"
    "Using Crystal Reports 2008, embed the SWF file into the Crystal Report source data file. When designing your Crystal Report, you will determine what fields/data populate the Row Headers, Comumn Headers, and Data ranges that were designated in your Xcelsius SWF. When set up properly, refereshing your Crystal Report will also refresh the data being sent to and consumed by the embedded SWF. See"

  • Crystal Reports 11g Performance Issue

    We just upgraded our database to Oracle 11g from Oracle 10g and we are having significant performance issues with Crystal Reports.
    Our DEV and TEST environments are on 11g and are very slow to connect to the database and attach to specific tables.  It is unusable.  Our PROD environment is still 10g and works fine.  
    We  have tested with both the lastest version -  Crystal Reports 2008 V1  and  Crystal Reports XI R2 SP6.  We have also tested on several different machines.
    We are using Oracle 10g ODBC drivers.
    Does anyone have any recommendations?

    You could also try our Data direct drivers we have available on our WEB site using this [link|https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100008666562008E/cr_datadirect53_win32.zip].
    Those drivers are the most recent and do support 11g. It also has a wired driver that doesn't require the client to be installed.
    Also, highly recommended that when you do update the Oracle client to uninstall 10 first. There have been issues with CR and Oracle mixing the Oracle dependencies and causing problems.
    Thank you

  • Crystal report 8.0 issue

    CA Forum: Data Connectivity and SQL
    Hello All,
    I am using Crystal Reports 8.0 with Visual Basic 6.0. I get an error "invalid file link. not all fields in same index expression" when I link two tables of the same database. The database used is MS Access 97. It is directly connected with the Crystal Report using DAO driver. Please help me out to solve this issue. Thanks, Rajesh

    Hello,
    Moved to Businessobject Enteprise legacy forum. Which CE is called now.
    CE 8 and CR 8 are 10 or more years old now. No patches or anything else available. Only option is to upgrade.
    This forum is the only place you can get support and because they are so old I doubt anyone still has a working install.
    Thank you

  • Crystal report layout printing issue

    Hi Experts
    I have a bit of an urgent issue which I can't seem to solve.
    I have created a print spec using crystal reports 2008 sp3.  I am trying to print it using an epsom dot matrix printer which is brand new. When I print from crystal reports itself, I have managed to get it printing perfectly. However, as soon as I run it through SAP, the orientation either goes out or it only prints 3/4 of the width of the page and to much as far as the being goes...
    There are other print specs which have been created using pld which print fine.
    Does anyone know the solution to this issue?

    Hi,
    To print Crystal report correctly on dot matrix printer is really a challenge for B1. You have to try everything possible to make it happen. Try search the forum first. There are quite a few discussions about it. However, solution is rare.
    Thanks,
    Gordon
