Crystal Report LDAP authentication with SSL to Business Objects XI 3.1 SP3

Hi,
Here is the issue
Business Objects XI 3.1 SP3
Crystal report 2008
LDAP is configured with SSL and working great within BO.
In Crystal report 2008, enterprise authentication worked, but not LDAP with SSL, I got "Security plugin error: Failed to set parameters on plugin.
If I try with LDAP with no SSL, everythingu2019s fine.  Do I have to setup something on the "workstation" side to be able to user LDAP with SSL ?
*I already tried to disable firewall
Thanks for your help

Hi,
check SAP Notes 1320510 and 1272536
Hope that helps.

  • Crystal Reports Server XI - A subset of Business Objects Enterprise?

    Post Author: RVM
    CA Forum: General
    I'm evaluating Crystal Reports Server XI with a view to fulfilling the reporting requirements of my Client. I've identified Crystal Reports Server XI as the ideal solution and have been looking for documentation that describes the constituents of CRS XI and the architecture of the product from a technical perspective. I haven't been able to locate an administrators guide for CRS XI similar to the one available for crystal Enterprise 10 and Business Objects Enterprise XI R2. I've read that CRS XI is a subset of Business Objects Enterprise XI and as such has the same arichitecture. COuld some please clarify what constituents of BO Enterprise XI also reside within CRS XI?
    Thanks in advance,

    It is kind of annoying that they didn't bother to create any documentation for Crystal Server XI.I've used both products and the key difference is that Crystal Server XI is limited to 20 user licenses (combination of either named or concurrent types) so if you have a very large user environment then your only choice may be BO XI.In terms of development and deployment the key difference between the 2 is that BO XI allows you to create universes.  Which in terms allows you to use the Webi functionality.  You can still use webi in Crystal Server but that's kind of pointless as the only universes you will be able to report off are sample universes.  Within Crystal Server you will still have all the functionality that exist in BO XI with the exception of the universes so you can still build business views, list of values, schedule reports, create custom calenders, etc.  So if you were to just snip out everything that deals with universes in the BO XI admin guide you'd have the Crystal Server admin guide.

    Report designed in CR XI R2 (v11.5.8.826).  Being saved to a
    BO Enterprise XI R2 (v11.5.3.4175) server.
    Tried saving the report to the BO repository, takes a long time and then pops up with the error:
    Failed to read data from report file <report location> Reason: Unable to launch <Crystal Report location where reportadd.exe is> program to add report to the system.
    I login to the server and try to upload the report using the "Publishing Wizard".  I get the same error, this time referencing the location of reportadd.exe in Business Objects.
    A look at the BO log shows me:
    Timestamp     ProcessID     ThreadID     Message

    That being said, sometimes it does work.  The behavior of both the publishing wizard and CR when saving or trying to upload the report is an hour glass for about 4-5 minutes.  If you click away from the application and then click on it again, it states "Not responding" but it is still working.  In some cases when I try again to save the report, it goes through in 1-2 minutes.  Sometimes if I click away and come back, click on the active app again so it states "Not responding" it will complete saving. 
    No resolution as of yet, simply keep on trying.  This only happens on this particular report which uses a good amount of tables and custom commands all querying a Sybase database.  I have other reports with the same functionality that do not run into this problem.

  • Crystal Report on Universe with MySQL ODBC

    Hi
    I created a report with Crystal reports by using a Universe based on MySQL ODBC. In my local (Windows XP) installed Report Designer everything is running fine. I'm also able to publish this report to my BOE, based on RHEL.
    If I will refresh my report on InfoView, database credential are required, but my credential are not accepted. I only become a error message: Failed to open the connection
    If I use Webi with the same universe and the same connection, everything is fine.
    I have also change the ODBC version, but no other result.
    Any idea, where I can trace this connection?
    Versions:
    Crystal Reports 2008 (12.0.0.683)
    Business Objects Enterprise 3.0 (12.0.0.683)
    MySQL ODBC 3.51.27 and 5.1.5
    Thanks a lot
    Christoph

    Hi,
    thank you very much for reply.
    I think you got it. We have the goal to create a report that can be printed and is top-gloss-report for management ; ) One query would not be able to include all that stuff. It is very different.
    So we created 7 different queries in SAP BW Query Designer and we want to put them together in BO Crystal Reports.
    All Queries work with input variable for period and year. These input variables are used in the columns of the queries for calculating the key figures.
    So, if we put these queries together into Crystal Reports, we should actually use "replacement path" for variables. But the sap.help says, that isn't doable.

  • Crystal Reports Dynamic Parameters with SAP Business One

    Okay, I've got this very strange issue with dynamic parameters in Crystal Reports connected to SAP Business One.
    Let's start with the software versions:
    - Crystal Reports 12.3.0.601
    - SAP Business One 8.8 (8.80.231) SP: 00 PL: 13
    - Windows XP SP3
    (SBO Server on Windows 2003 and SQL 2005)
    What I'm about to describe is something I've tried in several reports and for which I created a very, very simple test report to see if it was reproducible in a very simple situation.
    - I connected to a Business One server through CR's SBO connection type. Logon is successful, tables are shown.
    - I pick OCRD and plac CardCode and CardName in the details section on the report. Previewing the report shows data.
    - I create a dynamic parameter on CardCode and in the Select Expert I select the CardCode field and define that that should be equal to the parameter.
    - I preview the report again. Now it asks me in such a parameter screen for logon credentials. It shows the server and database it tries to connect to and in the username it shows the SQL Server username I used to connect to the SQL Server in the first place. However, the password for that user is not accepted. I also tried to login with the Windows administrator user and with the SBO manager user, but no success with any attempt.
    I also tried to add a static parameter and add all database values to the list. Same screen, different result:
    Crystal Reports 2008 wrote:
    Logon Failed.
    Error in File UNKNOWN.RPT:
    Unable to connect: incorrect log on parameters. (rptcontrollers.dll)
    (On a side note: the report is saved as report1.rpt)
    Anyone else got similar issues and found a solution?

    Hi,
    When you have fixed your crystal installation following the note posted earlier, please take a look at the [how to guide|http://service.sap.com/sapidb/011000358700000882232009E.pdf] and also at the [e-learning|http://service.sap.com/sapidb/011000358700001370262010E] about SAP Business One 8.8 and Crystal Reports.
    There are so called "tokens" which you need to use instead of dynamic parameters.
    Dynamic paramters don't work in SAP Business One 8.8, if they are not defined as a static paramter with token.
    Best regards,
    Darius

  • Crystal Report 9 connectivity with WebLogic 10.3.5

    Hello,
    Is the Crystal Report 9 certified with WebLogic 10.x? Currently WebLogic 8.x is in use. Trying to upgrade the WebLogic.
    Thanks

    What does this have to do with Database Connectivity?
    An I doubt it, CR 9 is about 8 or 9 years old well before 10.3 was released. Check the Platforms PDF's for more info.

  • Problem with crystal report that comes with VStudio 2008 Database edition

    Hello,
    I'm using crystal reports that comes with Visual Studio 2008 Database edition. But I'm having a problem these days. When there are more than 4 pages in the report, the summary field in the pagefooter(usually sum of data in the Details section) show 0 in the first page.It will be displaying in all other pages. I couldnt sort out the problem.I'm binding data to the report from an SQL Server 2005 table.
    Thanks in advance.I really appreciate if some one can sort out the problem quickly.

    Have not heard of the issue, but download SP1 and see if that helps:

  • How to get one crystal report to work with two different backends?

    We have a software that can work with either SQL2008 or Visual Fox Pro backend.  We are trying to compile One Crystal report that will work with either of the two backends.  How to you make sure that your Crystal Report is compiled so that it will work with both backends?
    Right now my reports were originally created using the SQL2008 backend and are retaining the DBO reference in the statement, which then will not allow the Crystal report to work with the VFP backend.

    You can write your data sets as a command using hand coded SQL. As long as "dbo" is the only schema used in your SQL Server database, you don't need to specify it in the SQL. SQL Server will automatically assume the dbo.
    The 2nd thing... The SQL needs to be 100% compatible with both SQL Server 2008 AND VFP.  This will limit the list available functions to those that are common to both platforms AND work exactly the same in both platforms.
    The other part is to make sure you are using an ODBC type connection instead of OLD/DB. That way all of the connection properties are set on the local machine and the report is simply looking for the System DSN name.

  • Need help Connecting Crystal Reports 8.5 with GBS Agency Expert 6.7.6c

    Need help Connecting Crystal Reports 8.5 with GBS Agency Expert 6.7.6c.  I need assistance on connecting these together so I can run a report.  I am not an IT person so if someone could dumb it down it would be great.
    Thanks,
    NBGHealth

    Hello,
    I assume GBS Agency Expert 6.7.6c is some sort of database or data source? If you have an ODBC driver then create or use a System DSN to the database. Then you can create a report using that DSN.
    Otherwise I suggest you contact the makers of GBS Agency Expert 6.7.6c and ask them how to connect to the database.
    Let them know CR is ANSII 92 ODBC 3 compliant.
    Thank you

    i installed business objects xi 3.1 sp3 on soalris and we are using apache tomcat web application server. wheni read  Supported Platform document it says business objects comes with jdk 1.5 . do we have an option such that we can point to jdk 1.6. we are having jdk 1.6 in the /usr/jdk.1.6.023. can we point our whole business objects to that jdk 1.6.
    help appreciated

    Hi,
    i know that you can re- point the Tomcat WAS to a different JDK but i am not aware that you can point BOE to a different one.
    I would recommend you open a OSS Message with the SAP support to check if it is possible and supported.

  • Integrating Crystal Report 2008 Developer with Visual Studio 2008 Standard

    I have Crystal Reports 2008 Developer version 12.0.0.683 on my computer. I also have Visual Studio 2008 Standard. I know the standard edition of VS 2008 does not have the bundled crystal reports, but since I bought the full version of CR 2008 separately, I figure I should be able to use CR within VS 2008. The problem I am facing is integrating Crystal Reports with Visual Studio, so I can create reports from within visual studio.
    Crystal Reports was installed first and then Visual Studio. As per suggestions on this and other forums, I repaired my installation of Crystal Reports, but that did not help. I then ran Visual Studio integration manager, but when I run it, it only detects Visual Studio as the currently installed IDE, but does not detect CR 2008. I downloaded service pack 2 for CR, but have not installed it yet. I do not want to install it if it is not going to help. I would also like to avoid uninstalling my copy of CR if at all possible.
    I am a newbie at development in visual studio. Any help will be highly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Rajib

    Don't want to go against what Jason said as it may be correct - if we go strictly by the documentation provided (sorry Jason, Dan says...). However, here is something to try;
    Uninstall CR. Look for any left overs; c:\program files\business objects\... and delete all of that.
    Look in the registry for HKLM\software\business objects and remove the business objects entry.
    Download CR 2008 from here:
    http://www.sap.com/solutions/sapbusinessobjects/sme/freetrials/index.epx
    That is a trial version and I believe it is already at SP 1. Use your keycode to install. Once this is done, you should have the ability to use CR in .NET. I'd recommend you do apply sp 2 now also.
