Crystal Report doesn't run on the production PC

I developed a report using VS 2005/Crystal Report. The report has three on-demand sub reports and some subreports. It runs well on my PC, but doesn't run on the production PC, on that PC, I only can see the report header or few columns. The difference (I can tell) between my PC and the production PC is my PC has VS 2005 installed.
Is there anything I can do to make the report running on the production PC?
Thanks.

Hi Jhon,
Have you installed the runtimes of CR of VS2005 on your server, if not than please install from(only applicable if you are using the bundle version of CR i.e. CR 10.2 which comes with VS 2005) [here|http://resources.businessobjects.com/support/additional_downloads/runtime.asp#07].
Note- use the appropriate version of merge modules for 64 or 32 bit machine
hope this works
Regards,
Amit

  • Crystal Reports 2008; Can't select the certain table. Why?

    Please help me everyone!
    problem note:
    I'm using Crystal Report 2008 to access MS SQL Server 2005 Database.
    Everything was good until last month.
    But somehow when I select the table "FTABLE11C", Crystal Repors hanging-up and no more Crystal Reports works.
    If I copy the FTRAN11C to different name such as "aaa" using following statement and use Crystal Reports then I can select the "aaa" whthout problems.
    Select * into aaa from FTRAN11C.
    So, I drop the tbale FTRAN11C and copy FTRAN11C from aaa table using following statement,
    select * into FTRAN11C from aaa
    and select the FTRAN11C again on Crystal Reports 2008, Crystal Reports 2008 hanging-up again.
    I'd like to know how to solve this situation.
    Thanks.
    1. We didn't have any patch on SQL Server.
    2. I delete one field on table that named "FTRAN11C".
       That's all.
    3. I tried following steps;
       a. Copy the file to another name.
            Select * into aaa from FTRAN11C
       b. Droped the bad table.
            Drop table FTRAN11C
       c. Copy back from saved table.
            Select * into FTRAN11C from aaa
    4. Open Crystal Reports 2008
       a. Connect to database with OLD DB.
           Crystal Reports shows all the tables within database without any problems.
       b. Select the table aaa.
           No problems. It shows on right side box.
       c. Select the table FTRAN11C that is recently created from saved table.
           Now we have problems.
            It does not shows on right side box.
            Little circle displaying forever.
            If I click right side x, Crystal Reports 2008 is closed.
    5. If I use following command on SQL Server Management Studio Express, all of data shows without any problems.
           Select * from FTRAN11C

    Install all patches as you are on the original release:
    Be sure you have the keycode, used to install the product, I will not be able to get you a new one if you lose it or don't have it available.
    The easiest way to update is to uninstall CR 2008 and then install Service Pack 3 full build:
    https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100009989492010E/cr2008_sp3_fullbuild.zip
    Then install SP 4:
    https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100008782452011E/cr2008sp4.exe
    Then test your reports again.
    As for using/upgrading to CR 2011 it's not required and likely won't make any difference but you can upgrade if you want of course.

  • LOV issue for Crystal Report 4.0 ( Enterprise ) using the BICS connection

    Hi Expert,
    I am working for one our client which is using Crystal Report Enterprise 4.0 SP 2 i am facing the following problem with the LOV .
    - I have created the crystal report on top of BEx query using the OLAP connection in CMC .
    I have the variable at BEx query level which have list of value around 100 K and user want to search through that LOV in order to make his selection but as soon as i include that variable in my Query and run my CR my report crashes  and i cannot run the report .
    I gave the user the option of manual input of value to that variable it does not work as it uses the BICS connection and i read somewhere we cannot use the manual input in case of BICS connection for crystal report  you have to select the value from the LOV .
    My Question is is there any workaround if we can restrict our LOV to some extent and let the user to select and search from that any setting if we have at query designer level to restrict the LOV to burst in the report .
    Any input will be appreciated .
    Thanks,

  • Open a crystal report from WAD with passing  the variables values

    Hi,
    I need to know is there any way to link SAP WAD to crystal reports (open a crystal report from WAD)and pass the values of the variables which are entered in the Web App. (e.g. Customer id,year) should be passed to the Crystal Report.
    Maybe we need to pass parameter by WAD URL but this is just my assumption and have no idea how to do this with passing variable values.
    right now I know the method of how Bex queries which are used as data source for crystal reports but in my current scenario we have the structure like this that bex queries link with WAD and then WAD is linked with crystal reports.
    No doubt that Crystal report is target option in RRI but there the source is Bex Query only but in current scenario we are looking  WAD (web template) as a source to crystal report or crystal report called in WAD.
    Please suggest something on same.
    Thanks
    Take care

  • Dashboard based on Crystal Report's Latest instances for the logged in user

    Hi,
    I am trying design a dashboard based on LiveOffice-crystal report's latest instance for the logged in user. Also there is row level security in the universe on which the crystal reports is created.
    In the live office connection i have selected 'latest instance by current user' in the refresh option and published the dashboard to InfoView.
    when i open the dashboard in InfoView , i find the row level restrictions being applied for different users. But the data retrived is always on-demand data and not based on the latest instance of the logged in users.
    Can anyone throw some light on this issue.

  • HOW TO STOP THE PROCESS CHAIN WHICH IS RUNNING IN THE PRODUCTION?

    HI ALL,
    CAN ANYONE TELL ME HOW TO STOP THE PROCESS CHAIN WHICH IS RUNNING DAILY AT 5.00 PM. I NEED TO STOP THE PROCESS CHAIN FOR COUPLE OF DAYS AND THEN RESTART IT AGAIN.
    cAN ANYONE TELL ME THE PROCEDURE TO STOP THE ENTIRE PROCESS CHAIN RUNNING IN THE PRODUCTION.
    THANKS
    HARITHA

    Hi,
    First and foremost let me advice you to be very careful while doing this.
    For Rescheduling
    RSPC> chain > Goto > Planning view and
    click on Execution tab > select > Remove from Schedule and then in Maintain variant of start process reschedule for the day you require it to run.
    For terminating active chain
    You can start from SM37, find the process WID/PID then go to SM50 or SM51 and kill it. Once its done come back to RSMO and check the request, it should be red but again manually force to red and save by clicking on the total status button in the status tab. This shuld ensure that the process is killed properly.
    The next step will be to go to targets that you were loading and remove the red requests from those targets.
    Note: For source system loads you may have to check if the request is running in the source system and kill if needed and pull it again.
    But for BW datamart delta loads u may have reset the datamarts in case u are going to pull the delta again.

  • Does Crystal Reports need to be on the web server?

    Hello,
    here's my scenario. someone who left us moved a .Net web application from server 1 to server 2 and didn't leave us notes of what he did. The report came up on server 2 fine but was not getting the right data so we changed the datasource to get the data correctly.  Now we deployed the fixed version on server 2 and refreshed the web server.  Now we see the correct results BUT the Business Objects icons (e.g. BO image, print icon, forward and back icon) are all "X" meaning that they could not be found.
    We took a look at server 1 and it had the full version of Crystal Reports installed on it.  On server 2 it looked like the DLLs were dumped into the GAC and that's all. 
    We're a bit perplexed by why it was working on server 2 with all the Business Objects icons even though Crystal Reports was not installed on it until we restarted the server with the fixed code.  We were thinking maybe it's some sort of caching??  I've never seen this before so I'm a bit perplexed.
    Any ideas on why this happened?
    Thanks for taking a look.

    Hello Jeff
    Mysterious for sure. When you say;
    no virtual directory to crystalreportviewers115 and Crystal reports is not installed on the server (except for seeing only a few CR Dll's)...so how the heck did he get it working
    You're essentially saying something like;
    The car has no wheels, no engine, yet somehow it managed to get from point A to point B.
    Sorry to say, but it ain't happening...
    The only way to get a project that includes CR to work is to deploy the CR runtime. Either via MSI file where a simple double click will install the runtime and configure the viewer directory under the default app pool, or via a setup project you build using the CR MSM files. Again the files will be installed and the viewer directory configured under the default app pool. If your app is under a custom app pool, you need to configure the viewer folder under that pool as the install has no idea about non default app pools.

  • Displaying a user logo in a Crystal Report dynamically at run time

    Using Visual Studio 2010, CR for VS 2010 on a Win 7 64 bit dev machine.  The software app that I'm creating is a full Windows application (not for the web).  Compiling my app for .NET 4.0.
    Actually, in January, 2012, we purchased the CR 2011 full version and subsequently installed this version for use within the development environment (VS 2010).  References that I use show (for example) CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine version 13.0.2.
    I have hundreds of hours of experience using Crystal Reports within VB, dating back to VB 6 and CR 8.5.  In a software app that I am currently writing, (where I am using VB in VS 2010 and CR 13.0.2), the Graphic Location formula within a picture "placeholder" is not working.  I am using a parameter called pUserLogo to set the path to the graphic location at runtime, but to no avail.  The picture that I'm using as a placeholder is not changing at runtime.
    I have scoured the internet for solutions to this problem.  I have also attempted to upgrade both the CR for VS 2010 (a.k.a. CR developer version) as well as the CR runtimes (both the 32 bit and 64 bit versions), but this has not helped.  The picture is never replaced at runtime while working within the IDE (i.e. running the app from VS, nor after compiling and then running as a full-blown application).  I have also tested this on another development machine.
    I eventually gave up trying to use the Graphic Location formula method, and instead went with a method that uses a DataSet within a DataTable to set the image (of an image column) as posted online.  This method actually works within the IDE.  However, if I then install my app to another PC (Win 7 64 bit as well), the CR crashes the app.  After extensive searching online, I found that referencing a DataSet in VS 2010 inside a CR, led to many other issues, such as having to use the 'useLegacyV2RuntimeActivationPolicy=true' statement in app.config.
    Further, I read that using a DataSet within CR in VS 2010 meant that you had to compile for .NET 3.5, rather than 4.0.
    Eventually, I created restore points on both PC's and then upgraded everything to 13.0.6.  But this did not help either method.
    All I am trying to do is 1) let the user of my app select an image before the report is created, and then 2) display that image on the report.  This particular report doesn't even need to reference any database, as all of the numbers that I'm displaying in the report are simply parameters that I update during the report's creation.  It is a very simple, straight-forward report.
    I would be happy to setup a GotoMeeting so that someone at support could see what is happening and could also review the code.  There are many more details, such as what errors I've encountered along the way, and what web sites I've been to in researching these issues, but I will leave that for continued discussion.
    Regards,
    Dominic

    An older discussion on this issue can be found at:
    http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2548723/unable-to-programically-set-graphic-location-in-crystal-report
    Since I couldn't get this method to work, I then tried the method as described here:
    http://adf.ly/91637/banner/aspalliance.com/1097_Importing_Dynamic_Images_to_the_Crystal_Report_without_Database_Overhead_using_Visual_Studio_2005.all
    The second method, which uses a DataSet within a DataTable as described in the above link, does work, and it correctly displays the image, but only in the IDE.  When tested on a "client" machine, opening the report causes my app to crash, with no exception or error message except for the "...has caused the application to stop working".  Previously, before introducing said DataSet into the report, the report loads and displays fine on my client machine.
    Further research led me to these two threads concerning the usage of the crdb_adoplus.dll which is necessary when using a DataSet in VS 2010 with CR.  It seems that the folder dotnet1 is not accessible, and thus there are workarounds for this issue.  See these two threads, below:
    http://scn.sap.com/thread/1802638
    http://scn.sap.com/thread/1665437
    Again, I followed the recommendations that I needed to set the Startup flag 'useLegacyV2RuntimeActivationPolicy=true' in app.config.  However, the workaround where I should target .NET 3.5 instead of .NET 4.0 is not reallly an acceptable option to me (and I don't know if it will work, anyway).
    So my question remains; Can anyone please tell me if A) They have any issues using the "picture placeholder/formula" method for loading a picture at runtime, and/or B) If there is a fix for the DataSet issues apparently inherent in using VS 2010 with a Crystal Report?
    Thanks in advance, for your reply.

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

    2 Environments tested with same results:
    <p>
    BOE XI 3.1 SP2 & BOE XI 3.1 SP2 FP2.5<br>
    SAP Intg Kit on mirrored SP/FP levels in each environment.
    <p>
    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.
    <p>
    We've setup all the Crystal Reports we're testing to:
    <p>
    a) Use custom database logon information specified here.<br>
    b) Specify a custom driver, leveraging the crdb_bwmdx driver<br>
    c) Prompt the user for database login
    <p>
    We have not enabled SNC as of yet.
    <p>
    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. 
    <p>
    2) When we refresh a Crystal Report hitting ECC data, we are prompted for the SAP credentials and everything works as expected
    <p>
    However:
    <p>
    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:
    <p>
    Interactive Viewer: "Error in File %reportname%: Encapsulating Page Failed"<br>
    Java Viewer:  "Error in File %reportname%: Database Connection Error"
    <p>
    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.
    <p>
    Thoughts?

  • Crystal Report not working when posting the report to the Crystal Server.

    Hi All,
      I created a report using Crystal Reports 2008 with two ODBC connections (User DSN's). When I run the report in Crystal Reports (where I originally created it) it runs fine with no problems.
       I am now trying to load it on Crystal Server 2008. When I try to run this report in InfoView, I get a message: "Error Failed to open the connection." I am thinking that it has to do with the ODBC connections but I am not quite sure. Could someone lead me in the right direction? How will the report that I now saved in the repository on the server connect to the ODBC stream?
       Thank you in advance.

    Solved my problem. I had to tweak the ODBC drivers on the server.

  • Crystal Report does not run through NWBC

    Hi All,
    I have been going through posts on SDN all day and I cannot seem to get a resolution to my issue as yet.
    Workflow is this
    Logon onto NWBC 3.0
    Click on Crystal Report. Crystal report contains an OpenDocument URL specified as follows:
    http://<servername>:8080/OpenDocument/opendoc/openDocument.jsp?iDocID=AbFjYgXfkO5AofAAPxoxOyA&sIDType=CUID
    When click on the Crystal REport link, i am SSO'd onto SAP BusinessObjects Infoview (Edge 3.1 SP3)
    The Crystal Report attempts to load and then I encounter the following message:
    Error
    The database logon information for this report is either incomplete or incorrect. 
    SSO with SAP Authenication is enabled for SAP BusienssObjects.
    Server-side Trust, etc has been set-up on the SAP Side
    All steps were followed from the SAP BusinessObjects XI Integration for SAP Solutions Installation and Admin Guide.
    For the Crystal Report itself, within the CMC, for the Database Configuration i set it to 'Use SSO context for database logon'.
    Also the the Data Source is using FQDN for everything.
    I am at a loss as to why the SSO is not working to refresh the Crystal Report.
    Any ideas on what to check next would be very much appreciated.
    Also, the report I am trying to run from within NWBC, contains a dynamic prompt, that uses a BV layer to populate it. The LOV is scheduled to refresh every morning. Dont know if that is causing the issue or not.
    Thanks,

    Hi Ingo,
    Thank you for your reply.
    Why has server side trust been setup on the SAP side ?
    I am not sure why Server Side Trust has been set-up on the server side. The basis person who set that up was following the BusinessObjects XI Integration for SAP Solutions Installation and Administration Guide. We thought we needed this in order for SSO to work between NWBC and BusinessObjects.  I read now it is only required for multi-pass report bursting.
    We have also set up the PSE as well.
    So...perhaps  an impersonation-style logon is happening on the SAP side because we have set up SNC?
    What do we do to undo this from a BusinessObjects server perspective? We have downloaded all the Cryptographic Libraries, set them up on the SAP and BusinessObjects servers.
    I will discuss this further with the basis person.
    All involved URLs and server names have been fully qualified ?
    Yes, everything is fully qualified.
    NWBC has been configured to issue a SAP logon token ?
    I am not sure. Where is the documentation on how to configure NWBC to issue a logon token? Should I be pointing my basis resource to look at the NWBC Documentation, Section 7.3 Logon Tickets?
    OpenDocument has been configured to use SAP authentication by default and to accept Logon token ?
    Yes, everything from a BusinessObjects server perspective has been configured. The web.xmls for InfoView and OpenDocument have been configured for sso with sap.
    In the CMC, SAP Authentication has been set-up and works a treat.
    It seems to me the SAP side, ie. NWBC needs more work.
    Just find it hard to get a clear, step by step process on how to set-up NWBC to work with BusinessObjects. There is an abundance of documentation, but sometimes not a clear cut, step by step guide.
    Ingo I bought your book the other day too, Integrating SAP BusinessObjects 3.1 Tools with SAP Netweaver. I really liked it because it is clear what you need to do. Perhaps another one could be written or another section added to this book that talks about NWBC and embedding BusinessObjects reports within it?
    Thanks again.
    Cheers,

  • Crystal Reports prompt issue on export: "The report you requested requires further information"

    I have searched through forums for a solution but none seem to work for me.
    I have an ASP Webform/MySql application which displays Crystal Reports.
    The ones which do not require a user to enter a parameter display fine and I am able to click on export on the CR toolbar and download, e.g. .pdf format.
    On the report that require a user to enter a parameter, the report renders fine but when I click on the export button, i get the prompt:
    "The report you requested requires further information"
    asking for DB login credentials. How can I avoid this?
    My Code:

    This is because almost any action on the viewer result sin a postback. This includes paging, zooming, drilling exporting and printing. E.g.; you will have to place the report in session. See the following KB for how to:
