Crystal Report XI crashes after several printings.

I'm using Visual Studio 2003 with Crystal Report XI for reports.  My problem is, after printing around 30+ reports, with 4pages each, CR tends to crash.  I'm suspecting a memory leak, how do I fix this?

Hi Tony,
Try with this:
Run a command prompt as administrator. From the start menu, select "All Programs", then "Accessories" and right-click on the "Command Prompt" shortcut and choose "Run As Administrator". From here you can use the following command to disable Data Execution Prevention (DEP) with the following command:
bcdedit.exe /set nx AlwaysOff
Keeping your command prompt open, run your setup or other process being stopped by DEP. Then, to turn it back on again, do the same and run the following:
bcdedit.exe /set nx AlwaysOn
Its a known issue with vista operating system and this is workaround for it.
Hope that helps!!
Regards,
Shweta

  • Employee photo is causing one of our crystal reports to crash

    Good Afternoon,
    I'm currently using Crystal report engine version 9.2.3.884 as part of a Peoplesoft package.
    I have created a new report using the PeopleSoft crystal ODBC driver delivered within the package.
    One of the field retrieved contains the employee photo defined in Oracle DB as a BLOB field.
    When I drag and drop the employee photo into the report, it crashes the application.
    I've first checked if the photo was corrupted using JPEGsnoop.exe. The photo used is not corrupted.
    After running a couple of tests I have found a workaround.
    Take a print screen of the employee photo using snag it tool, copy it into MSPaint, save the photo with the same name, load the new version into oracle and drag the photo into my crystal report.
    This new picture didn't crash the application.
    In order to make sure that the issue was not due to the PeopleSoft ODBC driver, I ran the same test using the Oracle ODBC driver. It returned the same result.
    I would like to understand why the original picture is causing my crystal report to crash.
    Is there any existing fix related to this issue? Otherwise I would like to know how to report this issue to crystal report developers?
    If you want some more detailed information (the employee photo I'm using) please let me know.
    Thanks in advance for your support,
    Best Regards.

    Hi Sean,
    Thanks a lot for your reply.
    That's right it could be related to memory usage. I have already got this issue before, but the message is different. When I'm running my crashing test, I'm dealing with one photo only (6 Ko JPG format).
    When I take a print screen of the photo causing my crystal report to crash, save it as the same format JPG using MS Paint, load it into oracle blob table and re-run the report using the new photo it works perfectly fine.
    Prior to this I made sure that the photo was not corrupted using JPEGsnoop.exe.
    If you want to I can give you the two JPG samples I'm using and a detailed explanation of the manipulation I'm doing.
    Thanks,
    Best Regards.

    Also, see this ARTICLE from the Tips & Tricks sub-forum, for things to look at with crashes and hangs. It covers the hardware, the OS and the software, and offers links for tuning up the system, and getting it ready for video editing. I know that there is a lot of material in there, but Neale has done a great job of putting things into a checklist, and offering links to other material.
    That rec. is for use along with John T's links, which are a bit more specific to your burned DVD's.

  • Crystal Reports XI crashes says "Crystal Reports has stopped working"

    I'm on Crystal Reports Xi release 2 sp2, with windows 7, I also have visual studio 2008 installed.
    When I try to add any fields or objects to a report in crystal reports it crashes and throws up a windows generic error message that says "Crystal Reports has stopped working"  There is no additional error information besides that...  I've tried a number of fixes, too many to list here, but no go, and apparently calling for tech support requires me to pay more money! ack.  We've already paid for the product, I just want to use it..
    Does this version of crystal reports even work on windows 7?  if I could get a straight answer on that it would be a start anyway...
    Sorry to be snippy, I'm just frustrated!!!

    Upgrading to SP6 solved the issue.  I originally thought sp4 was the newest because of this page: http://resources.businessobjects.com/support/additional_downloads/service_packs/crystal_reports_en.asp
    which is out of date...
    Thanks for the quick fix.

    Hi David,
    I've seen this before, your Video driver is out dated and you need to update it. Typically the makers of the mother board or video card, which ever one you are using, will have updates for your specific OS. Appears you are using the default Window generic video driver which may not support what CR requires or you have an older usp10.dll. You will likely get a new one if you install Windows XP Service Pack 3.
    Also, Crystal Reports version: 12.1.0.883 is SP 1 and not SP 2., second number is the Service Pack, 12.x.x.x.
    Download SP 4 and see if that may help:
    https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100009989492010E/cr2008_sp3_fullbuild.zip
    https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100008782452011E/cr2008sp4.exe
    Or incrementally:
    https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100009038092009E/cr2008win_sp2.exe
    https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100007123572010E/cr2008_sp3.exe
    https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100008782452011E/cr2008sp4.exe
    And you may need SP 3 or if you want to start off clean download the full build of SP 3 and then SP 4. Requires the keycode so make sure you have it, we can't give you a new one.

  • Crystal Reports 2008 crash when Select Page or Print Report

    Hy,
    I Have Crystal Reports 2008 on Windows Vista. When I select page or I print reports, Crystal Reports crash. I tried to uninstall Crystal 8.5 and Crystal XI that I was on the same computer and manually removed all entry in Registry. After this I reinstalled Crystall 2008 but the problem was not resolved.
    So I tracked the dll called by CRW32.EXE and I found that the problem was on a DLL of Microsoft Office OneNote. I uninstall the Microsoft Office OneNote printer that Office Installation Program created for OneNote and now all work fine. I hope that this can help other people that have the same problem.
    Ciao Filippo

    Thank You for the information Filippo,
    This is actually a known issue with CR 2008 when a printer driver is missing at least one file. Our developers are aware of the issue and are planning to release a fix soon.

  • Crystal Reports 2008 crashes in Visual Studios Basic 2008

    I have Visual Studio 2008 Basic with Crystal Reports 2008 (Full) running on Windows 7 Pro - 64-Bit. I am running VS in visual basic runtime and I encounter this problem very frequently, however not all the time.
    What appears to be happening is when I have any one of my 11 solutions open and I try to open a crystal report, Visual Studio says that it has encountered a problem and needs to restart. This happens whether I am running the program as and administrator or not. After VS restartes and I open my solution again, I attempt to open the same report and it opens without crashing.
    This seems to be a direct problem with Windows 7 and crystal reports, because I never had this problem while developing these solution in Windows XP.
    ~Paul

    Make sure you have applied Visual Studio 2008 SP1.
    Make sure you have Crystal Reports 2008 SP2 applied (unless you are using datasets with date time fields, then apply SP1).
    SP 1 is here;
    https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100006555792009E/cr2008win_sp1.exe

    i'm using iis 7
    in the web.config i have set sessionState timeout="60" and application pool idle time out to 60 mins.
    any idea why this happens

    Make sure you are on SP 8
    Make sure you are using .Close and .Dispose on your report objects as you get done with them.
    What OS? (2003, 2008, 2012)
    Provide more info on the following:
    The problem is that the Crystal Report Viewer does not load after a few hours.
    What does that mean? Errors? Warnings? Behavior? Symptoms?

    Sorry Rajiv. Not a clue and since
    a) this is not a supported environment
    b) CR 10 has been out of support for... 3+ years(?)
    all I can suggest is an http sniffing utility like [Charles|http://xk72.com/] or [Fiddeler|http://www.fiddlertool.com/fiddler/] and perhaps [Process Monitor|http://technet.microsoft.com/en-ca/sysinternals/bb896645.aspx] which will tell you the dlls loading by the process.
    Perhaps somebody else may have an idea?

  • Crystal Reports 2008 crashes in Windows 2003 terminal Services Session

    Hi,
    We installed Crystal Reports Server and Crystal Reports 2008 on a new Windows 2003 Small Business Server. Crystal Reports works when run at the physical console, but when accessed from Remote Desktop it crashes to the debugger when I try to:
    a) open an existing working report that uses SQL Server 2005 parameterized stored procedure,
    b) create a new report using any SQL Server 2005 parameterized stored procedure,
    c) access help.
    All the above work fine at the physical server but I need to access remotely using RDC.
    I log in as administrator, I have tried turning off DEP and I am running RDC via the mstsc command both without and with the  /admin switch to run in session 0 but there is still a difference between being at the physical console versus remote that CR does not like.
    More: I have to drive a long way to get to the server to try things locally.  For now, as a workaround, I have started crw32.exe at the physical server and I can use that when I log in via RDC - I just cannot start crw32.exe remotely and run it successfully. Also, when I do run remotely, I get the entire menu bar on startup with no start page, but running at physical server I get only the File, View and Help menus but I do get the Start page.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks,

    Thanks.

    Through  Startu2014Run are you able to view the image by choosing the following path ?
    sapserver\B1_SHR\Bitmaps\Versailles\" & {RSM_Inventory_Images;1.PicturName}
    Also try to insert any image which is on your local hard drive and try.  I think this is because, CR is unable to access the images which are on UNC.
    Thanks,

    I've found a few sites online that others have had the same problem, but I've not found a solution. Any suggestions from anyone here??

    Hi Carla, I moved this post to the database connectivity forum.
    It may be due to the size or of the text included int he description or MS is reporting the wrong size of the field.
    Other issue is XI is not supported on Windows 7 due to the age of CR and newness of Windows 7. CR XI is no longer patchable nor will any new OS platforms be added.
    What you can do though is download CR XI R2 for free and use your XI keycode to install it, then go to the Keycode Request site and get one for R2:
    Go to this link: http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc and download the trial version of CR XI R2 and use your XI keycode, then apply the patches which you can get to by clicking on the BusinessObjects tab above, then Downloads.
    Test again and if it still fails you may have to wait for Service Pack 6 to come out, I believe we are adding Windows 7 to the supported OS's.
    Thank you
