Crystal Reports 2008 Web Application Error

Post Author: Jeff Clark
CA Forum: .NET
Hello,
I am using Crystal Reports 2008 and Visual Studio 2005 to create and deploy CR web applications. These applications are installed on a Windows 2003 R2 server with .Net 3.0. I have previously used CR XIR2 for this purpose but upgraded to 2008 because I needed the added functionality in cross-tab reports.
Some of the reports in the web application are pulling from a MySQL database. I am using a JDBC driver (version 5.1.5) to connect Crystal to the database. When I was using CR XIR2, all I needed to do was add the path for the JDBC driver in the CRConfig.xml in "C:\Program Files\Business Objects\common\3.5\java" directory and everything worked great.
The runtime files for CR2008 create a "C:\Program Files\Business Objects\common\4.0" directory, but there is no "java" subfolder and no CRConfig.xml. When I attempt to load one of the MySQL reports I get the following error.
"Error in File %Report Name%.rpt: Failed to load database information. "
Is there a way to load JDBC drivers in the CR2008 runtime files?

I do not believe any java dlls are packaged in the runtimes for .net (same goes for the crdb_xml.dll, which is a java dll). I do not have a cr 2008 deployed server at the moment so I can not verify this.
   If you want to use java based db connectivity you will probably need to deploy them with your application.

  • Crystal reports 2008 sp3 : An error has occurred while attempting to load t

    Hello,
    Please forgive me for posting in the CR .NET forum because we are using the full Crystal Reports 2008 product and I did not see a category for it.  If there is a better forum for this question, please let me know or feel free to move it.
    We are having trouble deploying our crystal reports 2008 reports to a Windows Server 2008 R2 server in an aspx application...
    I have been working on this issue for 4-days and cannot seem to make any progress, so I would really appreciate your help.
    Our Environment:
    Development Computer (32-bit, WinXP)
      VS2008 (fully updated, was not installed with its Crystal Reports feature)
      Crystal Reports 2008 SP3 (downloaded and installed "cr2008_sp3_fullbuild")
    Database Server (64-bit)
      "SERVER2" is a Microsoft SQL Server 2008 server, fully updated
    Web Server (64-bit)
      "SERVER3" is a Microsoft Server 2008 R2 Web server.
    We have an application that is installed on the Web server and it pulls data from the database server.
    The webpages are accessing the database properly.  There is a ShowReport.aspx webpage that has the
    CrystalReportsViewer on it.  We send parameters and logon information to ShowReport.aspx.  ShowReport
    works properly on our development computer and the report looks good, but it fails on the web server.
    We downloaded CRRuntime_12_3_mlb.msi (X86) from SAP/CR and installed it on the web server without any issues.
    Our application pool on the web server for this application is set to 32-bit mode.  When I launch the
    application, it works properly with the database and displays data on web pages, but when I try to
    view a report on ShowReport, I get the following error message:
    An error has occurred while attempting to load the Crystal Reports runtime.
    Either the Crystal Reports registry key permissions are insufficient or the Crystal Reports runtime is not installed correctly.
    Please install the appropriate Crystal Reports redistributable (CRRedist*.msi) that contains the version of the Crystal Reports runtime (x86, x64, or Itanium)  that is required.
    According to everything that I have read, I have properly matched the DLLs: On the development computer, "cr2008_sp3_fullbuild" was installed; On
    the web server, "CRRuntime_12_3_mlb.msi (X86)" was installed.  They are both Crystal Reports 2008 and not .NET.  CR.NET was not installed on our development computer, so our application was built with full Crystal Reports 2008 SP3.  On our development computer, .ENGINE is 12.0.2000.0 and
    the same version is on the web server.
    So, I am completely at a loss as to why we are encountering this error.  Help, Please!!!
    Thank you in advance,
    Mike

    Hi Mike,
    Did you set your project for X86 mode only? If not do so and rebuild and deploy your app.
    Thank you

    Ismael, a few suggestions;
    1) Remeber that Oracle is case sensitive, so ensure that is in order.
    2) Have a look at the following threads and see if they help:
    https://forums.sdn.sap.com/click.jspa?searchID=17494545&messageID=6325240

    https://forums.sdn.sap.com/click.jspa?searchID=17494765&messageID=6023461
    3) As a test, comment out the logon code, let the report prompt and fill in the logon parameters when prompted. Does that work?
    4) You do not mention if this is a web or a win app. If this is a web app, try a simple win app. If the win app works, you are looking at permissions issue
    5) Ensure that you have SP 0 for CR 2008 applied. SP 0 is here:
    https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100007528552008E/cr2008_sp0.zip
    6) When you say he report works inthe designer, is this designer on the same Vista box as where you get the runtime error?

    Hi Juan
    As per the issue description, you are using Visual Studio 2003 and Crystal Reports 2008 in Visual Basic. You get JavaScript error when you try to drill down the report.
    We would like to know the following details:
    - Does the report work fine with Standalone Crystal Reports Designer?
    - Exact version of Crystal Reports Designer. (To get this information, open Crystal Designer and go to Help> About Crystal Reports)
    - If you get the error while refreshing the report through application, then I would suggest you to post this query on the Java forum to get better assistance.
    The link of Java related queries is as follows:
    SAP Crystal Reports, version for Eclipse
    Hope this helps!

  • Crystal Reports 2008 SP2 Install Error

    When I try to install Crystal Reports 2008 SP2 I receive the following error...
    The feature you are trying to use is on a CD-ROM or other removable disk that is not available.
    Insert the 'Crystal Reports 2008 SP1' disk and click OK.
    SP1 was installed via the upgrade utility that launches with the software.  I found the package folder in C:\Documents and Settings\%username%\Local Settings\Temp but it did not contain the MSI SP2 is looking for.
    I've tried installing SP2 by both letting the update utility attempt to automatically install it and by just downloading it from the update utility and running the installation manually.
    Anyone experience this issue?

  • Crystal Reports 2008 SP1 Install Error 1402 on Vista 64

    I just downloaded and tried to install the Crystal Reports 2008 SP1 and when I try to run the setup I get a error 1402, could not open key error and the service pack rolls back.  I also tried to reinstall from my original CD and I not get the same error.  I have tried to  run the install using the run as administrator and with Norton 360  disabled and I still get the error.  How do I correct this problem so I can update and correct my version of Crystal Reports 2008 Pro?

    Hi David,
    The link above seems to only refer to deploying runtime. I suggest you un-install Crystal Reports, go into the registry and delete all of our keys. Assuming you only have CR 2008 installed and the usual warnings about backing up or exporting your registry before making any changes:
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Business Objects
    And
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Business Objects
    And then download a full build of SP1 from this link:
    https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100006556612009E/cr2008v1win_rf.exe
    Make sure you do have full Admin rights and check with your IT department to confirm they have not modified the local Administrator profile.
    SP1 is DEP aware so it's not required to disable it.
    Before you do all of the above You may also want to copy the SP to your local PC rather than running it from a network share point. Network delays can also cause issues like this.
    Thank you

  • Crystal Reports 2008 Viewer Syntax error number: -2146827286

    I have CrystalReportViewer12 installed on Apache/Tomcat 6. I have configured all components as necessary: installed jars and setup web.xml/CRConfig.xml. I can get the report to display appropriately in my jsp page. But when I try to use the Go To Next Page button I receive the following error:

    Translating the error message on bablefish I get:

    Which I'm sure is not 100% accurate, but it gives a good hint. As well, because of this:
    "Do I need to install an additional / diffrent runtime than 2008 Runtime"
    I wonder how you installed the CR 12 runtime on that computer? For more info on CR runtimes, see [this|https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/BOBJ/CrystalReportsforVisualStudio.NETRuntimeDistribution-Versions9.1to12.0] wiki.
    If my suggestion above does not help, make sure the Win\temp directory can be accessed buy the application. Crystal Reports runtime needs to write and read files from the temp directory.

  • Crystal Reports 2008 SP2 Installation Error

    Howdy Folks...
    I have been trying to install the SP2 for Crystal Reports.
    I get the following error...
    "The installaion source for this product is not available.  Verify that the source exists and that you can access it."
    Running the downloaded file, unpacks the contents, starts the installer, then the error message is displayed.
    System is with Windows Vista SP2
    Your help and advice is needed...
    Thanks,
    Jim

    Yes, mapping the network drive on the install PC works, technically.  Unfortunately, it doesn't resolve my core problem for two reasons.
    1.  I'm trying to make the install procedure as touchless as possible for an install base of potentially hundreds of users.  Having them all map a network drive would defeat the purpose.
    2.  I oversimplified the explanation of my situation to make the question easier to ask.  We actually have a home-grown, web-based client software distribution tool from which I'm trying to setup the installation.  The network drive, and generally all details of the installation are transparent to the installer, so that's another strike against mapping the network drive.
    Here's the command line script (nothing fancy) and the code of the supplemental .ini file that I'm using.  (This assumes that the self-extracting Crystal SP2 file has already been extracted and that I'm working directly with the setup.exe, setup.ini, and package files.)
    And to reiterate, this scripting procedure has worked like a charm for Xcelsius SP3 and Crystal SP1.  It just falls flat on its face for Crystal SP2
    Batch Script:
    setup.exe -r Crystal2008SP2.ini
    Crystal2008SP2.ini:

  • Crystal Reports and Web applications.. what is the future?

    Hello,
    I currently create reports in Crystal 11 R2 and display them within my intranet application using an SDK and asp calls.
    I would like to know what the future holds for this method... what upgrade path do I have?
    Certainly I intend to keep things the way they are as we have a large number of reports but I would like to know what options I will have to investigate\be aware of for the future?
    I realise my question is a bit open ended...
    What does SAP\Business Objects\Crystal decsions advocate in this regard... what is their prefered methond of providing reporting for web type applications?
    PS. I am not interested in portals etc. The application provides paramters and DSN switching at run time within the application.
    Cheers,

    Hi Scott,

  • Crystal Reports Viewer Control  - Visual Studio 2008 WEB Application

    My question is this:  Has ANYONE on this planet been able to get the ASP .NET CR Viewer control to actually work?
    Why does this editor NOT recognize End-of-line or CR characters or any whitespace??
    I have developed a Crystal Reports "Viewer" web application in VS2008 using C#.
    It's a simple app, in that it's a single page with a treeview control (containing the grouped names of the reports to which the user has access) and the CR Viewer control.
    The report files live on a network share, and permissions to them is controlled via a SQL Server database, which, for each report, stores the UserID and Logion for the oracle database, as well as any required parameter values.
    The reports themselves are all hititng an Oracle 10g database.
    I managed to do this in a Windows desktop applcation using Visual Studio 2005 and VB .net, but now, upon trying to make this a web application in VS2008, I have completely failed. The application works when run locally, but when deployed to the web server, I experience database login prompts when I should not, (the dreaded "Report requires further information" message) even thought the setdatabaselogin has already been set. I have tried saving the reportdocument in viewstate and re-assigning the viewer Datasource property to it, that also fails. However, it only does it on some reports, and not others. (admittedly, the reports may have been created using different CR versions)
    The viewer also displays data it should not be displaying when I attempt to scroll, when I do manage to get a report to run.
    I am setting parameters dynamically at run time, whose values are stored in the SQL database.
    Code Sample:
    protected void ShowReport(int ReportID)
            SQLDataPortal2005.Common sql = new SQLDataPortal2005.Common();
            Hashtable outParms = new Hashtable();
            string sAccess;
            IDataReader dr;
            CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument rptDocument = new CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument();
            System.Security.Principal.WindowsPrincipal p = System.Threading.Thread.CurrentPrincipal as System.Security.Principal.WindowsPrincipal;
            sAccess = p.Identity.Name;
            int j = 0;
            int i = -1;
            if (!IsAdmin())
                sql.ExecNonQuery("CrystalReports", outParms, "proc_CRM_Check_Permissions", sAccess, Convert.ToInt32(TreeView1.SelectedNode.Value));
                if (outParms["@Allow"].ToString() != "True")
                   Response.Redirect("ErrorPage.aspx");  // redirect to  error page
            string sPath = System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["WareHouse"].ToString();
            sPath = sPath + TreeView1.SelectedNode.Text.Trim() + ".rpt";      
            rptDocument.Load(sPath);
            dr = sql.GetDataReader("CrystalReports", "proc_CRM_Get_Report", Convert.ToInt32(TreeView1.SelectedNode.Value));
            while (dr.Read() == true)
                j += 1;
                if (j < 2)
                    rptDocument.SetDatabaseLogon(dr["DB_Login"].ToString(), dr["DB_Pwd"].ToString(), "PLAW", "LAWDB", true);
                    pList = dr["ParmList"].ToString().Split(',');
            dr.Close();
            dr.Dispose();
            if (pList.Length > 0 && pList[0].ToString().Trim() != "")
                foreach (CrystalDecisions.Shared.ParameterField x in rptDocument.ParameterFields)
                    i++;
                    switch (x.ParameterValueType)
                        case CrystalDecisions.Shared.ParameterValueKind.BooleanParameter:
                            rptDocument.SetParameterValue(x.Name, Convert.ToBoolean(pList<i>));
                            break;
                        case CrystalDecisions.Shared.ParameterValueKind.CurrencyParameter:
                            rptDocument.SetParameterValue(x.Name, Convert.ToDouble(pList<i>));
                            break;
                        case CrystalDecisions.Shared.ParameterValueKind.DateParameter:
                            rptDocument.SetParameterValue(x.Name, Convert.ToDateTime(pList<i>));
                            break;
                        case CrystalDecisions.Shared.ParameterValueKind.DateTimeParameter:
                            rptDocument.SetParameterValue(x.Name, Convert.ToDateTime(pList<i>));
                            break;
                        case CrystalDecisions.Shared.ParameterValueKind.NumberParameter:
                            rptDocument.SetParameterValue(x.Name, Convert.ToInt32(pList<i>));
                            break;
                        case CrystalDecisions.Shared.ParameterValueKind.StringParameter:
                            rptDocument.SetParameterValue(x.Name, Convert.ToString(pList<i>));
                            break;
                        case CrystalDecisions.Shared.ParameterValueKind.TimeParameter:
                            rptDocument.SetParameterValue(x.Name, Convert.ToDateTime(pList<i>));
                            break;
            Session["CReport"] = rptDocument;
            CRV1.ReportSource = rptDocument;
            CRV1.DisplayGroupTree = false;
            CRV1.HasRefreshButton = true;
            CRV1.ShowFirstPage();
    Is there a better/different way of accomplishing this very simply process? All I need this application to do is to view a report, while setting it's parmeters (if required) dynamically at run time. I don't EVER want the user to be prompted for DB LOGIN INFO.

    To answer you question; Yes, I suspect that most of the users in this community have managed to successfully create web apps. And this is the tiniest of sampling of the developers out there...
    A few suggestions;
    1) Keep the posts to under 1200 characters. Otherwise, the formatting is lost which makes it difficult to read.
    2) Try out a few sample apps from here:
    https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/BOBJ/CrystalReportsfor.NETSDK+Samples
    Suggest; csharp_web_simplelogonengine.zip, csharp_web_simplelogonviewer.zip and csharp_web_subreport_logon.zip.
    3) Start simple; one table, one field, no subreports. Hard code the database logon parameters. Convince your self that this does work. Increase the complexity - add fields, tables, subreports. Do not mix connection methods (e.g.; if ODBC for main, than ODBC for sub is a good idea, though not a requirement).
    4) See the article [Troubleshooting Guide to Database Connectivity Issues with Crystal Reports in Visual Studio .NET Applications|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/index?rid=/library/uuid/b0225775-88c4-2c10-bd80-8298769293de].

  • Crystal Reports 2008 Trial Version Runtime Error

    Hello
    Yesterday I've downloaded Crystal Reports 2008 (Trial Version). The installation was successful. I've got no error.
    Anyway, I'm unable to start Crystal Reports. I get the following error:
    Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime LIbrary
    Runtime Error!
    Program: ...ects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\win32x86\crw32.exe
    Abnormal Program Termination
    I've already tried all "solutions" mentioned in Re: Crystal Reports 2008 trial version ERROR (DEP, HW acceleration, etc.) but without success (I'm running Windows XP with SP2). I've also updated Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 resp. 2008 redistributables...
    Can someone help me?
    Thank you!

    Hi Patrick,
    Nothing Strange about it. You need local Admin rights to access registry and other parts and CR needs the same.
    Check anti-virus or possibly firewall settings. When you installed did the installer ask you to allow All users to run CR?
    You may want to check with your IT guys, they may have modified your local user group to not allow some rights.
    Bottom kine is your PC security is blocking access that CR needs under your local user account.
    When you do try to run it does UAC pop up a message to allow you to run CR Designer? If not then it may be you have customer settings for that also.
    Search Microsofts site on more info on user rights.
    Thanks
    Don

  • Memory could no be read in Crystal Reports 2008

    I'm getting the following error in Crystal Reports 2008 when I want to open the Format menu in the toolbar The moment Crystal Reports 2008 has just started (no report is loaded):
    Crystal Reports: crw32.exe - Application Error
    The Instruction at "0x00a1305d" referenced memory at "0x00000000". The memory could not be "read".
    Click on OK to terminate the program
    Click on CANCEL to debug the program
    The moment I click on the format menu a process SVCHOST has 100% CPU Usage for some moments and after a few seconds the errormessage appears.
    I'm working on a Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition Service Pack 2 with 2 CPU's and 3 GB of memory.
    The version of Crystal Reports is an evaluation version with Service Pack 2 on it (version = 12.0.0.840).
    When I install the same Crystal Report version on the client, the error doesn't occurs.
    What could be wrong on the server.?

    Please post this query to the Crystal Reports Design forum:
    SAP Crystal Reports
    That forum is monitored by qualified technicians and you will get a faster response there.
    Thank you for your understanding,
    Ludek

  • Consuming a Web service from Crystal reports 2008 - Error

    Hi,
    I want to consume a web service from Crystal Reports 2008. I created a New Connection using "XML and Web Services" and given WSDL url as the Web Service location. Crystal Report is able to connect to the WSDL and is displaying the tags correctly. When dragging the output to "Selected Tables' section, I am getting the following error:
    "Invalid Argument Provided"
    Details: Cannot support ArrayType input parameters.
    Kindly help. Apparently this was a limitation in CR XI but does it still exist in CR 2008? Is there any patch available to resolve this issue?
    Thanks,
    Jaya

  • Crystal Reports 2008 runtime error while running on Windows Server X64

    I have a .NET web application compiled as X86 in Visual Studio 2008 invoking Crystal Reports 2008 SP2 that's running fine at a number of sites running Windows Server 2003 X86.</br>
    </br>
    When deploying this app to Windows Server 2008 X64 I get the error message below. </br>
    </br>
    I'm aware that there is an unanswered question similar to this already in the forum but my application is compiled for X86 and I've tryed installing a variety of run times including "crruntime_12_2_mlb.msi" and "crredist2008_x86.msi".</br>
    </br>
    What combination of compile and run time is needed to get around this issue?</br>

    Thanks.</br>

    What combination of compile and run time is needed to get around this issue?
    See [this|https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=56787567] wiki. I think I may not have that wiki updated up to FP2.5, so the FP2.5 msm is here:
    https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100002975182010E/cr2008fp25_mm.zip
    msi is here:
    https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100002975312010E/cr2008fp25_redist.zip
    Check the version of the CR assemblies referenced in your project. The use the wiki above to deploy the correct runtime.
