Crystal Reports 2013 and Windows 8.1

Hi,
I'm trying to install the Crystal Reports 2013 designer on my PC, where it is installed the client of SBO 9.1 PL04.
The operating system is Win 8.1 32bit.
The setup of Crystal stops in the requistes control phase, in relation to the operating system.
Is the last distributed version of Crystal designer not ready for win 8.1?
Thanks.
Antonio

    See the SAP Crystal Reports 2013 Product Availability Matrix (PAM), page 9 and download the doc linked to there. According to that doc, Lotus Notes is now only supported via ODBC only.
    Also, the search string 'lotus crystal 2013' (search box in top right corner) brings up the following KBA:

  • Unable to save reports to enterprise from Crystal Reports 2013 and Crystal Reports for Enterprise

    Dear Expert,
    when we tried to save report to enterprise, error happened:
    "Failed to find a Report Application Server."
    We closed BO server firewall.
    We could check report from PC by browser.
    But when we save report from CR 2013, then error happened.
    Then we install CR enterprise and save report is ok from same PC.
    We launch latest patches too.
    Anyone see this before? Please kindly help~

    April, since you have CR4E, you also have BI and thus free phone support included. My suggestion would be to create a phone incident and work with an SAP engineer on the issue. Only saying because it looks like you're somewhat anxious to get this going(?).

    Hi Everyone,
    I have a question regarding Crystal report 2013 backward compatibility.
    Say I use CR2013 to view, modify, and save my CR reports on XI R2.
    Is that possible? Is it view-only function that I can use?
    Correct me if I asked the question the wrong way.

    You won't be able to connect to the XI R2 repository from the CR 2013 designer.
    You should this error message:

  • Oracle client 32/64 bit on Crystal Server 2013 and Windows Server 2012

    I'm getting the error "Unknown Database Connector Error" when I run report on the server and it works OK on crystal designer 2013.
    Been reading this thread 32&64 bit Oracle Client but not much help there.
    Here are the  details
    System
    Windows Server 2012
    Crystal Server 2013 SP5
    Crystal Server has been installed and appears to work fine. I was able to develop a brand new report locally and saved it to the server and it displays ok. Of course when I click on refresh on the report, it will error out due to database connection it looks like.
    We have installed both oracle client drivers 64 and 32. 64 was installed first and then 32.The path has been modified so that the 32 shows up first.
    I even ensure oracle_home and oracle_home32 are specified and restarted the server. I still get the same error.
    The tns entries are also located in both installs of oracle client...
    What might be the issue?

    Oracle Database Client 12.1.0.2.0 (32-bit and 64-bit installed)
    Installation Type: Custom
    COMPONENTS INSTALLED:
    SQLPLUS
    ORACLE NET
    We are currently not using an ODBC connection.
    We installed Crystal 2013 Server SP05. This is the sole package installed (believe it's the latest version) without any extra patch package installed (believe no patch needed as it's the latest version).

  • Crystal Report Viewer and Windows Vista

    Hi,
    We are using RDC methodology for launching the crystal reports in the web using ASP.
    The web server operating system is Windows 2003, Crystal Reports XI is installed in it.  Report is not launching in only one client machine.  For all the other client machines reports are launching perfectly.  The problem is blank white activex control is displayed.  I tried to register the crystal reports viewer (ActiveXViewer.cab available in the crystal installation folder) deliverables in the client machine but after installing the deliverables same problem persists.
    When I click on the Crystal Report viewer Internet Explorer Exception occurs
    The following add-on was running when this problem occurred:

    Could any one help me regarding this.

    Hello,
    First thing to do is upgrade to [CR XI R2 SP4 full build|https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100011802732008E/crxir2_sp4_full_build.exe]. Then get up to Service Pack 6 and you should not have problems with Vista.
    CR XI R1 will not and has never been tested on that OS.
    If you do not want to upgrade though use Process Monitor to watch for Access Denied errors. Also run IE in Compatibility mode.
    Likely what is happening is your test PC doesn't have rights to install ActiveX controls.
    Thank you
    Don

  • Error on installation (Crystal Reports 2008 and Windows 7)

    Hello,
    I'm trying to install Crystal Reports 2008 on a Windows 7 laptop.  Receiving Error 1904, Module C:\PROGRAM FILES\BUSINESS OBJECTS\BUSINESSOBJECTS  ENTERPRISE 12.0\win32_x86\ReportConvTool.dll failed to register.  This seems like a premissions error, but I have full admin rights on this system.
    We are starting training next week and I need to get the software installed.
    Any help you can provide would be great!
    Thanks!

    I have been looking and found the exact error above.
    So 2 of us have it but as yet there is not a fix.
    I understand that SP3 will help, but my problem at this second is I can not get the productr toload for the first time.
    Thus I do not think  I can apply SP3.
    Or (which is possilbe) am I wrong
    I will give it a go
    Thanks

  • Crystal Reports XI and Windows 7 Logo compliance

    Hi all,
    my company is in the process of certifying our ERP (written in Visual Basic 6), for the Windows 7 Client Logo Program.
    This certification requires the all the files (including third party ones) that are installed outside the program own install folder (as Crystal Reports runtime files for istance) are digitally signed.
    In our application we use Crystal Reports XI RDC and for the distribution of the Crystal Reports XI runtime we use the COM merge modules that we embed in our setup program.
    If digitally signed files are not available, the Win7 logo test requires a proof of communication sent to the vendor to request a signed version of the redistributables, to be able to have a "waiver" granted for the unsigned files.
    Is there a version of the merge modules with digitally signed files? Or who in Sap can i contact (i need a mail address) for requesting the signed version of the runtime files?
    Thanks in advance.

    Well, looking at the CR XI r2 Supported Platforms documentation I see the following:
    Supported Operating Systems:
    u2022 Windows Vista (All 32-bit and 64-bit Editions)
    u2022 Windows Vista with Service Pack 1 (All 32-bit and 64-bit Editions)
    u2022 Windows XP SP2 Professional
    u2022 Windows Server 2003 R2 Enterprise Edition

    u2022 Windows Server 2003 SP1 Standard Edition
    u2022 Windows Server 2003 SP1 Web Edition

    Irrespective of shared code, etc., any issues you may run into on WIN2008, we will not be able to escalate these to R&D for a resolution. As I said, it's up to you.

  • Crystal Report Viewer and Windows 7 Enterprise

    Hi,
    We are using RDC methodology for launching the crystal reports in the web using ASP. 
    The web server operating server is Windows 2003, Crystal Reports XI Release 2 is installed in it. Activex Viewer is downloading fine in client machine having Windows XP OS (IE Version is 7) but for the same url ActiveXViewer.cab is not getting downloaded in Windows 7 Enterprise (IE Version is 8).  It throws the error u201CThe Crystal Report Viewer is unable to create its resource objects.u201D
    To download the cab file in Windows 7 machine it request for the following url
    1.     http://<web server name>/crystalreportviewers115/ActiveXControls/ActiveXViewer.cab
    2.     http://crl.verisign.com/pca3.crl
    3.     http://csc3-2004-crl.verisign.com/CSC3-2004.crl
    4.     http://www.download.windowsupdate.com/msdownload/update/v3/static/trustedr/en/authrootstl.cab
    URL 2,3,4 returns the http status as 502 (Bad gateway).  These url are not called from the Windows XP machine.
    The windows 7 client machine is not connected to the internet. I tried importing the crl files (by downloading from another machine).  But still we are getting the same error.
    How to over come this issue?
    Please Note :
    1. I am able to download the cab file when I tried to download only the cab file directly by specifying the cab url.
    2. If I am registering the ActiveXViewer.cab deliverables manually in the client machine report is launching fine, but we cannot do the same for the entire client machine having Windows 7 Enterprise Operating System.

    Hi Ludek Uher,
    Thank you very much for the information provided by you.  But still the same error (The Crystal Report Viewer is unable to create its resource objects) occurs after changing the IE8 Compatibility mode.
    Are there any other settings that can be tried for this issue?
    Thank You.

  • Crystal Reports 9 and Windows Server 2003 sp1/sp2

    Post Author: jnribeyrol
    CA Forum: General
    Hello,
    due to security updates in my company, we have to upgrade from Windows Server 2003 to sp1 or sp2.
    I haven't been able in the support to find out if there was any problem with Report Access Server on these SPs.
    Can somebody help me.
    regards

    CR XI is past it's end of life. You can upgrade to CR XI R2 for free.
    Go to: 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.
    Typically this is due to DEP, search forums for more info on how to configure it as well as your Anti-virus and/or Firewall may be stopping CR from running. You also need full Admin rights to install all components.
    Thank you

  • How to Save/Transport Crystal Reports 2013 reports in ECC (not BW)

    Hi,
    we are using Crystal Report 2013 and have reports which are based on ALV´s and SAP Tables directly.
    I want to know if it´s possible to save the reports directly in the ECC system, with transport connection etc. and maybe the possibility to translate the reports later in another language.
    I know the way when we have reports based on a BW system, there it is really easy and integrated.
    But in this case we are on a normal ECC System, not a BW Enviroment.
    At the moment we have the report rpt files locally.
    Has someone already done this and or knows a tutorial what steps are to do? (connection, package, roles)
    Kindly regards
    Max

  • Crystal Reports 2013 on SAP BW

    Hi Gurus,
    We are trying to establish connection between Crystal Reports 2013 and SAP BW 7.4. Could you please let us know whether we can create Crystal Reports on following BW objects or not?
    -BW BEx Reports
    -BW Cubes
    -BW DSOs
    -BW Master data Info Objects
    -BW Multi Provider
    Regards
    Viswanath

    Hi Manoj,
    Using the SAP BW MDX Query driver, you can design formatted Crystal reports that are based on data that is stored in SAP NetWeaver Business Warehouse (BW). You base these reports either on queries that are created with SAP Business Explorer (BEx) Query Designer, or directly on the cubes in BW.

  • How to configure crystal report 2013 with oracle 11g

    hey all,
         i download trial version SAP Crystal Report 2013 and i have Database with 11g and i want to connect with my database and try to develop reports
    but my issue is that i'm not able to connect with database. Can anyone please help to connect with database.
    i am new be with oracle database so it will help me if any one go thru step by step or any link,

    Hi Sandip,
    All you need is a 32-bit Oracle driver to be installed on the machine you're developing the reports on.
    If you already have both the 64-bit and the 32-bit drivers, make sure the Path variable under 'system variables' points to the 32-bit home.
    You can then either create an ODBC DSN or use the 'Oracle Server' native driver that shows under 'Database Expert' to create the report.

  • Switch database in Crystal Report 2013

    Hi All,
    I have Crystal Report 2013 and my client require to connect multiple database with single report. I have more than 10 MySql database and all database structure are same.
    E.g. Create one report Employee Detail and connect using ODBC (RDO) I have successfully connected my single MySql database. Now I need to use this report for another database.
    My question is how to switch database at runtime?
    Anybody help me please.
    Thanks.

    You can create either a .NET or a Java app to schedule or view the report - it would connect in to the CMS and handle things from there.  It's not difficult to set the database connection in code.  Your best bet for additional help will be to look here:  http://scn.sap.com/community/bi-platform/microsoft-net-sdk or here:http://scn.sap.com/community/bi-platform/java-sdk.  There is sample code available in both places as well.
    Also, while I know that the utility Ido is referring to  will work with Crystal reports, I'm not entirely sure it will work with reports that reside in CRS.  So, you'll need to review it closely to determine whether it will work for you.
