Crystal report for VS pack 13 always crashes my VS2013

Hi,
I have some old c# projects in VS2008 with Crystal report now have to convert to VS2013, but since VS2013 doesn't support Crystal report so I download this pack 13 and install it. After installed this pack, I can see the option of adding crystal report as new item into my project. But the problem is after I adding crystal report and before going to report designer, my VS2013 crashed. The VS2013 crashed also if I try to open existing crystal report file. Any idea? I download the pack from here: http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-7824 and use Install Executable to install.
My OS is Win7 Enterprise SP1 with 64-bit OS
My VS2013 is Microsoft VS Premium 2013 with Update 4 version 12.0.31101.00
Thanks!
Lan

Hi Lan,
It works fine on my Windows 7 64 bit PC.
Were VS 2010 and 2013 installed before you installed CR for VS?
I suggest you uninstall any and all CR for VS packages as seen in the Programs and Features, do a repair install of VS 2013 and then install CR for VS SP 13.
Doing a repair install of CR for VS does not integrate into both VS versions, must do uninstall of CR for VS first.
The installer should detect you have both versions of VS installed and update each one.

    If you wish to use the Eclipse IDE Software Updater:
    1. Start Eclipse 3.4.1 (Gemini) IDE.
    2. Select Help -> Software Updates...
    3. Select the "Available Software" tab.
    4. Click the "Manage Sites..." button.
    5. If you do not see the following URL listed:

    Hi Leonardus
    Please define "crash". What actually happens?
    Did this ever work? E.g.; this started to happen recently?
    Is this happening on your development system or QA or production?
    See if enabling the option "Verify on 1st Refresh" will help.
    Make sure you are using SP 1: Crystal Reports for VS 2005 and  VS 2008 Updates & Runtime Downloads
    Ensure that the dataset is less that a couple thousand rows. Anything more than that will cause issues...

  • Crystal Reports for Visual Studio Service Pack 1 didn't fix my issue

    I have been working for some time on a web application project which is using Crystal Reports for some of its reporting features. I installed Service Pack 1 on the server but it failed to resolve the following issue:
    ADAPT00638965
    Description: Using the Crystal Report Webform Viewer to search for a string that exists on the current page of a report does not return the correct result.
    I installed the same service pack on my development machine and it DID fix the problem. I cannot understand the reason why. I was oping someone may have had experience with this and may know why it isn't working or, more importantly, how to fix it. Please help!

    Not a problem. Essentially, we have two choices since it looks like the SP you ran on the server did not update the runtime. So, we can determine the dlls that are different by using the modules utility and replace the old dlls (not my prefered way) or create a new deployment project using the patched merge modules (way prefered). Since you are using CR 9.1(?) that bundles with .NET 2003, the application was deployed to the server. Somehow, the correct CR runtime had to also have been deployed. Since CR 9.1 does not have an MSI file, you have to create your own deployment project (either an setup.exe or an MSI) using the CR 9.1 merge modules. All of this assumes that your development computer and the web server do indeed have the same application (version and all. e.g.; if the app on the server uses CR 10, the patch for CR 9.1 will do nothing for you). The merge modules for CR 9.1 can be downloaded from here:

  • Crystal Reports for VS 2010 corrupts "some" Thai chars on PDF Export

    Any Thai character that contains a symbol above it (like an umlat in English) gets corrupted when exporting a report to PDF, yet the same report can be exported to Excel or Word without any issue.
    See the following character - once with a symbol above one without:
    ล้ ล
    The PDF file will not display the first character - instead it displays the second character overlayed on a box (like you get when the font does not contain the required character)
    If I create a text field in the Crystal designer, it does the same thing - but when I right click and edit, it displays correctly - until I click out of the field when the problem returns. So this suggests the problem is before the PDF export and maybe with the designer - but then why does it work if i export to Word?
    I have tried may different fonts - including those specifically recommended and used by the Thais, but all have the same issue.
    My work around at the moment is to use Word instead of PDF, as I do not believe there is a configuration change I can make that will resolve the issue, but would love to hear otherwise.
    I am using Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2010 version 13 running on Windows 7 x64. I have a beta 2 download of v14, but it requires a key code which i do not have, so as yet ahave been unable to verify if this issue is resolved in that version.
    if anyone knows otherwise, please let me know
    Cheers
    Jed

    Thanks Don,
    (Good to know that version 13 I am running is the correct one)
    I have tried many UTF-8 fonts, with largely similar results, but this testing here is with Cordia New - a font largely aimed at Thai Language and the one our Thai customers always use.
    I have confirmed that right click and export from the IDE still shows the box on certain characters - but note that the box does not replace these characters (as would be the case if they were missing) but rather overlays them - which is why my subject includes the word 'corrupt'
    All testing so far in on my Windows 7 development machine - so no user issues are involved
    The code if fairly simple at this stage - define and load a data set - then link it to the report and use the built in export to disk functions:
                    OutboundSummary rpt = new OutboundSummary();
                    rpt.SetDataSource(outboundSummary);
                    string tempDir = Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("TEMP") + "
                    string filename = tempDir + DateTime.Now.ToString("yyyy-MM-dd HH-mm-ss");
                    rpt.ExportToDisk(ExportFormatType.PortableDocFormat, filename + ".pdf");
                    rpt.ExportToDisk(ExportFormatType.WordForWindows, filename + ".doc");
    If anyone wanted to verify, here is a piece of Thai text that will show the problem
    ผลรวมแฟกซ์ที่ยังอยู่ในคิว
    To better illustrate the problem, the attached image will help
    [IMG]http://i55.tinypic.com/hweh42.jpg[/IMG]
    I am coming to the conclusion that perhaps these characters are not single characters - at least do not appear as such with each font - and perhaps Windows does some magic to make them appear correctly. I can see that Word automatically converts them to a suitable font - i.e. a mixed language text file imports into word with different fonts for different languages - and you cannot change the font to one that does not support the language. I can specify Arial from Crystal which does not contain thai characters at all - but export to word and they show correctly.
    Crystal spits the data out and Word converts it correctly, but acrobat does not - so maybe it is their fault?
    I have all language packs on my machine - and doing Chinese next suggests that even if I find a thai font that worked, it would not work in chinese, so am thinking word or rtf might be the winner.
    Cheers

  • Publishing Crystal Reports for Enterprise error

    When I try to publish a Crystal Reports for Enterprise report, using Publication options, in order to send it by email to three of my users,  it shows the following error:
    2014-07-03 10:20:32,390 ERROR [PublishingService:HandlerPool-1] BusinessObjects_PublicationAdminErrorLog_Instance_16070 - [Publication ID # 16070] - Scheduling document job "Users - with Logon Events" (ID: 16,077) failed: Exception in formula '{@Record_Selection}' at 'and (
    ({Auditing.Events\User Name} = "Larry") or ({Auditing.Events\User Name} = "Curly") or ({Auditing.Events\User Name} = "Moe")
    The remaining text does not appear to be part of the formula. (CRS 300003) (FBE60502)
    [3 recipients processed.]
    It is weird because the report is one of those that are by default used for Auditing and it runs perfectly when I run it manually or by Schedule. The problem is when I include it in a Publication, so it can be filtered automatically based on the list of users.
    I tried with another of those reports that come with Auditing, and it has the same problem. Is it a bug? Are you able to replicate this error in your environment? I'm using Crystal Reports 2013 sp3.

    Hi Abhilash,
    I am able to open and edit other reports on the server without problem.  I believe that they are the same version and pack.  Here are my versions:
    CR for Enterprise Version 14.1.3.1257, Build 2013 Support Pack 3.
    SAP BusinessObjects BI Platform 4.1 Support Pack 3, Version 14.1.3.1257
    When CRE displays an error like this, is there further information in a log or recorded anywhere else?  How does one go about finding details?

  • CRYSTAL REPORT FOR ENTERPRISE ON ECC

    Hi Everyone,
    I have been trying to connect Crystal Report for Enterprise over ECC via universe as we don't have option
    to connect CR4E directly to ECC.
    So, I have made a universe in IDT and published it in repository.
    Now, when I am using that universe in WebI Report and DashBoard then it is working fine but the same is throwing
    the error while I am trying to connect with CR4E 'Failed to execute query: 'Fail to create an instance of Job : com/businessobjects/i18n/locale/BoLocale'.
    The same error 'Fail to create an instance of Job : com/businessobjects/i18n/locale/BoLocale' was also coming when we try to save the IDT  with Secure Connections is set to Server Middleware(Window -> Preferences->Information Design Tool ->Secured Connections ->Server Middleware).
    Regards,

    Hi,
    As per the SAP Note 2022008 - Crystal Reports for Enterprise gives error with ERP Universe this is is the bug in

  • How to Create a Linked Subreport in Crystal Report for Enterprise

    Hi All
    I am developing a monthly report grouped by cost centre, I want to create a second table for each cost centre showing year to date, underneath the monthly data for that cost centre.  My thoughts on how to achieve this is to create a linked subreport in the group footer of the cost centre grouping.  However every time I try to set this up the report crashes.  Am I doing something wrong, can this be done in crystal reports for enterprise?  Can anyone give me a pointer on how to set up a linked subreport so that it passes the particular cost centre the report is grouped upon into the subreport so it only shows data relevant to that cost centre?
    Any help will be appreciated as I am going in circles at the moment.
    Thanks

    Edited by: SmiddyLad on Feb 6, 2012 2:49 AM

    Hi Neil,
    You are doing right. You can create linked subreport in crystal report for enterprise.  Please refer below link to see the elearning tutorial  in which a simiar scenario is explained step by step. Here its an unlinked subreport. Enable subreport filter to make it linked and try. It should work.

    inserted into the database. Both fields (xml and pdf fields) are varbinary in the
    same table in sql server 2005. All the flow from reading the xml to inserting
    the pdf into the database is executed in memory, it never goes to the hard
    disk. In other words both the xml and the pdf file are stored in memory (the
    RAM). That is the only function of that COM+ object and I already have it in a
    production server and it works GREAT!!
    The PROBLEM is the concurrency tests. I made the following tests
    in the same production server:
    1. First I went to the registry and I set the PrintJobLimit to
    100 in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWARECrystal Decisions10.2Report Application
    ServerServer
    2. I shut down the object in the COM+ and I executed 100
    threads all at the same time. Each thread created one instance of the object in
    the COM+ and the 100 pdfs were generated SUCCESFULLY in 5 minutes!!
    3. Then I executed again 100 threads (WITHOUT shutting down the
    object in the com+). 10 pdfs were generated succesfully but the rest were
    never generated and there was no exception because my object was NEVER
    INSTANTIADED in the COM+, I mean, the 90 instances were never created in the
    COM+, so my object was never executed, THAT IS MY PROBLEM!! Do I have to
    modify something in the registry files of crystal reports to fix this? What can
    I do? I have revised the code in that object a LOT OF TIMES and believe me,
    everything is being closed and disposed at the end (the memory streams, the
    ReportClass objects, the connection to the database, even the dataset used to
    store the data of the xml file!
    So to sum up the problem is not with the execution of my object
    (cause once is created the object works great and the pdf is generated
    perfectly!), the problem is with the com+ TRYING to create another instance
    of my object given that test scenario. Help me please, What do you
    suggest?
    The production server has this specifications:
    Operative System: Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition with Service Pack 2
    Processor: Dual Core AMD Opteron 2212 2.00GHz
    RAM: 820MB
    Hard drive: It is partitioned in 2 drives --> C
    drive has 20GB and D has 60GB
    Note: Each generated pdf has only one page and if you bring it
    to disk its maximum size is 56KB
    I hope your answer and thank you

  • MySQL 5.5, Crystal Report for Visual Studio not working when hosted IIS

    Software and Component detail
    Microsoft visual studio 2010
    MS .NET Framework
    Version 4.0.30319 RTMRel
    MYSQL SERVER Database
    Version 5.5
    MySQL Connector 6.6.4 64 Bit
    MySQL ODBC Driver Version 5.2.a
    Crystal Report for Visusl Studio 64 Bit 13.0.5
    (CRforVS_redist_install_64bit_13_0_5)
    Current Setup
    1. I have WebSite in ASP.NET Visual Basic which works fine and is connected to MySQL Database, using MySQl Connector 6.6.4 64 bit
    and is using a connection string,defined in web.confg.
    2. I am using a Crystal report( It is very complex report, so cannot dare to redo it). Data Source for the report is set using a connection string
    DRIVER={MySQL ODBC 5.2a Driver};SERVER=Licensedb;DATABASE=License;pwd=root;PORT=3306;OPTION=3 and this report is called from website using the below code
    Dim crystalReport As ReportDocument = New ReportDocument()
    Dim repPath As String = Server.MapPath("~/Reports/") + "LicenseReport.rpt"
    crystalReport.Load(repPath)
    CrystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = crystalReport
    crystalReport.SetParameterValue("InstanceID", CInt(Session("sessionInstanceID")))
    crystalReport.Refresh()
    crystalReport.SetParameterValue("InstanceID", CInt(Session("sessionInstanceID")))
    CrystalReportViewer1.Visible = True
    3. The above setup works fine, when I run the website from Visual studio 2010. But when i use IIS 7, the aspx page having crystal report viewer control load and its blank.
    However it work very well from studio it self.
    4. So I changed the setup in point 2, by having a ODBC Data source defined. And changed the report accordingly. It work fine in Visual studio , but from IIS
    it gives error "Failed to Open Connection, Failed to Open Connection <Crystal Report File name.rpt>"
    5. I tried creating a System DSN and same connection string in IIS Application Connection string. But nothing changed.
    Please can anyone point in correct direction. I must admit this is my first website development work, so I might have overlooked some minor details.
    Any help would be much appreciated.
    Thanks

    hello again. I fear that what is said in that article does not apply to my particular case.
    First of all i am using the Crystal Report Basic 2008, which I think is not the same product as Crystal Reports 2008.
    In addition, printing fails always, on my PC and on the web server.
    On the other hand I can not find anywhere printcontrol.cab file or printcontrol.dll, just do not exist either in my PC or on the web server.
    The folder where the report viewer is located is not CrystalReportViewers12, is CrystalReportWebFormViewer4, and is located at wwwroot\aspnet_client\system_web\2_0_50727\
    Investigating I found something, but has not helped me:
    [http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/forums/en-US/vscrystalreports/thread/0af08d25-dd71-41ce-92fa-ca374f933eaa/]
    This problem is what always happens to me when on my local PC I access my web server by its public IP.
    I think I must resign myself to use only the PDF print
    thanks anyway

  • Crystal Report for VS2010 show Login when deployed

    I am having a problem with my Windows Form project in VS2010 regarding
    the SAP Crystal Reports for VS2010.
    When I deploy my project on client's PC it shows a login dialog box.
    The client's PC is in XP.
    I already installed the correct runtime in their PC.
    When the login dialog box appear and the cancel button is clicked,
    the Report shows correctly.
    But our client did not want to always see the login dialog box.
    I already try to fix it like this:
    u2022 Add connection and login info in the codes (CrystalDecisions.Shared.ConnectionInfo)
    u2022 Verify and reconnect the database
    u2022 reinstall the runtime of Crystal Report(CRRuntime_32bit_13_0_1.msi)
    But nothing works.
    I am using an XML schema to display the report, I do not directly connect
    to a database. Like this:
    CrystalReport.SetDataSource(DataSet);
    The framework I use is C#.Net 3.5.
    My project is in Windows Form.
    My Crystal Report for VS2010 version is 13.0.1
    Please help me.
    Thanks in advance.

    Moved to .NET SDK forum.
    Can you clarify? What data source are you using? Direct connection to the DB or Dataset?
    It's prompting because what ever source you are using doesn't have the proper connection method being used or the log on info is incorrect.

  • Key instead of Text in Results Object in Crystal Reports For Enterprise

    Hi All
    I recently developed a report in Crystal Reports for Enterprise and at some point afterwards the text description of the hierarchy used in the report was changed.  The Key remained the same, however this caused the report to crash.  The solution was to click Edit Query Option in the Results Objects and simply come out without changing anything.  This refreshed the results object pane and the report ran as normal.   I work in an environment where the text of hierarchies is liable to change frequently and without notice and it will be unfeasible for me to constantly refresh the results object every time a change to a hierarchy is made.  Therefore is there a way to define in CRE to use the Hierarchy key instead of the text as this is less likely to altered?
    Many Thanks in advance
    Neil

    Excuse me I have my terminologies mixed up, what I mean is the name of the characteristic used in the report.  An example would be a characteristic called with the text of "Material" and a key of "0MATERIAL", if I were to change the text description to "MAT" and the key where to remain the same.  This would cause crystal report to error because it expecting the Characteristic name to be "Material".  Is there a setting or something in CRE to have it default to the key only so if the text of a characteristic or even a key figure for that matter where changed there would be no impact to the Crystal report.
    I hope this makes more sense this time round
    Thanks

  • Connection problem in Crystal Reports for Eclipse(SQL Server Express 2008)

    I tried to connect into a local SQL Server Express 2008 database in Crystal Reports for Eclipse (CR4E), but always  got the Ping failed message(TCP/IP connection failed) even I tests completed successfully using my Window XP Adminstrators Tools (SQL Server ODBC Data Source Test). I can connect successfully to a remote network Oracle database in CR4E. I would like to know
    that is there any one who connect SQL Server Express 2008 local database successfully in CR4E?

    Don,
    Thanks for your suggestions. I will follow your instruction to connect to SQL Server Express 2008 database latelly. I can connect successfully with different Oracle databases (10g) in CR4E. I will try to connect MySQL database and Postgres database in CR4E  to see if they can be  successful or not. My project involves international entities with emphsizing  in using OPEN SOURCE softwares (which means FREE - no license fees) in .NET platform for Oracle, SQL Server Express, MySQL and Postgres database servers. I am responsible for reports generation. I hope that CR4E can be connected successfully to SQL Server Express 2008 database server, otherwise I have to use JFreeReport/JFreeChart tools to do reports generation .

  • Switching the language of the "Crystal Reports for Eclipse" plugin

    Good day everyone,
    I would like to ask about configuring the language of the "Crystal Reports for Eclipse" plugin:
    - I have "Crystal Reports for Eclipse" version: 2.0.7.r1040
    - I have installed the language packs 1 and 2
    - Currently, the Crystal Reports perspective and the associated views are displayed in German.
    - I would like to switch these views back to English.
    Questions:
    1. How can I switch the language?
    2. Will this switching of the language have any known side effect on the existing reports, because some of the reports in my current project are displayed in German?
    Thank you in advance for your support.
    Best regards,
    Samar

    Hello everyone,
    I have found a solution for this question that I would like to share with you.
    - Browse the Control Panel
    - Open the Regional and Language Options
    - In the Regional Options tab under the Standards and formats group, select the Locale that you prefer.
    - *Restart Eclipse* and the Crystal Reports plugin would read the changed setting and display the Crystal Reports perspectives and views in the language of the selected Locale.
    Best regards,
    Samar
