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
Don

Crystal Reports and Windows Server 2003 R2
Having huge issues with Crystal Reports for Visual Studio .NET 2010 Beta 2. I downloaded both the runtime and software as provided and restarted the pc. No matter what I do, I can not use it
I get these errors in my IDE:

I tried a repair and even reinstalled VS.NET with no luck. This is runnig on a Windows 2003 Server R2. What do I do?Hi Dan!
First at all, I think that you created this thread in the wrong SDN forum; I'd rather search whether under the [Business Intelligence (including SAP BusinessObjects and SAP Crystal Solutions)|http://forums.sdn.sap.com/index.jspa?categoryID=1#45] or the [Business Intelligence SDK Application Development (SAP BusinessObjects and SAP Crystal Solutions)|http://forums.sdn.sap.com/index.jspa?categoryID=1#46] categories and, if nothing found, create a new thread on the category that better fits your question.
Let me also warn you that Windows Server 2008 R2 is a completely different operating system from Windows Server 2008, and it is not generally released for SAP NetWeaver; check [SAP note 1383873|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1383873] ("Windows Server 2008 R2 Support"). I don't know if it is supported for Crystal Reports specifically; please check it.
However, and just to provide you some Windows tricks to trace bad or lacking modules (.exe, .dll, .ocx, .sys, etc.), you can generally use the free tool "Dependency Walker". Get it at [www.dependencywalker.com|http://www.dependencywalker.com]. Read [note 1212310|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1212310] for further reference.

Unable export crystal report XI to pdf on window server 2003 SP1
I have a class asp function to export crystal report XI to pdf file, it is workable at winXP but when i copy it to window server 2003, it exported the file with zero length (file size is 0kb).
when i try to open the zero length pdf file, it shows the file is already open or in use by another application.
when i run my export function, i can see there is a new file created at the folder "C:\windows\Temp", when i try to open the tmp file, i get the message "The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process", i can open the tmp file after i end the process "w3wp.exe network service", the data in the tmp file is exactly what i need to export to the pdf file.
At the window server 2003, I have installed the Crystal Report XI developer edition,
For the web application folder and the pdf export folder, Read, Write and Modify permission has been set for the following accounts:
1. myServer\Administrators
2. myServer\ASPNET
3. myserver\IUSR_myserver
4. myServer\IWAN_myserver
5. Network Service
6. System
7. myServer\Users
I think it is the permission problem, but how to set the right permission at the window server 2003 SP1? please advise. thanksHello,
It is a permission issue. When you export Crystal first tries to write the file to the local TEMP folder and then delete it to see if it has read/write permissions. If it fails to delete the file you need to give the TEMP folder on the WEB server permissions for your application. Check Microsofts WEB site on how to set permissions on shared folders for your ASP application.
You may want to search in forums also, this looks familar.
Thank you

Dynamic Crystal Report with Windows Server 2008
I am creating a report through code with Crystal report on Windows Server 2008 R2. When I am executing the following command:
CRAXDRT.Report.Database.AddADOCommand
This is generating an error which is given below:
Error description: Logon failed
Details: [Database Vendor Code: -205]
But its working fine with Windows Server 2003.
Private Sub AddRptDatabase(a_CRReport As CRAXDRT.Report, a_sStartDT As String, _
a_sEndDT As String, a_sDept As String, a_sStatus As String)
Dim cnnRpt As ADODB.Connection
Dim cmRpt As ADODB.Command
Dim sSQL As String
Dim sWhere As String
Dim sTemp As String
Dim sTemp1 As String
sSQL = sSQL & sWhere & " Order by AdminData.RONumber"
Set cnnRpt = New ADODB.Connection
cnnRpt.open g_objBA.LocalConnectionString
Set cmRpt = New ADODB.Command
cmRpt.ActiveConnection = cnnRpt
cmRpt.CommandType = adCmdText
cmRpt.CommandText = sSQL
'Create data set
a_CRReport.Database.AddADOCommand cnnRpt, cmRpt
Exit Sub
Please suggest some solution.Moved to Legacy SDK forum.
CR XI R2 Service Pack 6 and Fix Pack 6.4 should work on Windows 2008. CR 2008 SP 2 and above also. Older version, no support for it.
CR is 32 bit, make sure the 32 bit client is installed and being used.

Windows Server 2003 R2 Sp2 Italian Language
Hi,
I have a big problem with installation of endpoint security. I installed it on a windows server 2003 R2 sp2 with italian languages and it dosn't works. I read in a post that italian languages is not supported but you are working for a fix. There are news?I need a quickly help to solve this problem!
Thank youHi there,
There's a release planned in the near term. However, I don't know for sure if that will include localization as a priority. Have you suggested an enhancement request through http://www.novell.com/enhancement_request/ for getting this fixed?
If you need to quickly resolve this, maybe you can setup an english (or another supported OS Language) server running into a VM inside a server with italian language and you can make that a temporary install meanwhile italian localization is done.

Acrobat 8 Professional and Windows Server 2003 R2 Issue
Hi
Our customers using Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional on Windows server 2003 R2 SP2. It works some period of time but then application stops working with this error and cannot start anymore:
Faulting application Acrobat.exe, version 8.1.0.137, faulting module Checkers.api, version 8.1.0.137, fault address 0x000021a2.
What can be the problem? There is nothing in the knowledgebase.
Regards,
JelenaHello jordixip,
You can connect your Mac to Terminal Services using Remote Desktop Connection Client . You need a license, the client software, and turning on the appropriate bits on the server. It is in Micro$oft-ese, but the overview is here.
Good Luck!

Hyper-V VM Windows Server 2003 R2 SP2 Network Problems
Hi Guys,
I am trying to setup a new VM in my lab (I am using windows 8.1 in my host) with Windows Server 2003 R2 SP2. I already installed the integration services in that VM, the network adapter is ok (Hyper-V network adapter). Well, everything it seems to be
ok, but my W2K3 Machine keeps getting 169.xxx ip. My host is wireless , the virtual switch is ok, since I have other 4 VM (W2K8, W2K8R2, W2012, W2012R2) working fine with that switch and having access to the internet, just this VM with W2K3 is not working.
Do you guys can help ?
ThanksPlease check the properties of your NIC adapter in W2K3 if the Client for Microsoft Network is installed.
And also try to compare the network setting for other VMs NICs in Hyper-V to find the deference.
I would create new VM and install clean W2K3 for testing.

Which VMware support Windows 7 as Host and Windows Server 2003 as Guest OS
Folks,
Hello. I need to install PeopleSoft PIA in Windows Server 2003.
Because my laptop is preinstalled Windows 7 Home Premium Editon and cannot dual boot multiple Operating systems. I have to install VMware in Host Windows 7 and then install Windows Server 2003 as Guest OS for PIA.
I have installed VMware Server 2.0.2 into Host Windows 7 and Windows Server 2003 as Guest OS. Everything works fine for a while. But VMware Server Home Page https://mylaptop:8333/ui cannot display any more.
I have found that Windows 7 is not a supported Host Operating System for VMware Server 2 and strange thing might happen anytime. I found that "VMware Player 3" is fully supported Windows 7 as Host OS but is not supported Windows Server 2003 as Guest OS.
Does any folks know which VMware product support Windows 7 as Host OS and Windows Server 2003 as Guest OS ?
Many thanks in advance.Hi,
Based on my research, I would like to suggest the following:
1.
Ensure the printer is compatible with Windows 7 and Windows Server 2003 and the drivers are up-to-date.
2.
Try the following method:
Printers that use ports that do not begin with COM, LPT,
or USB are not redirected in a remote desktop or a terminal services session
Hope this helps. Thanks.

Nicholas Li - MSFT
That doesn't apply to Windows 7 Machines. I'm having the same problem as Acer_, I have a RDP Session from a Windows 7 Machine to a Windows XP machine and the local printer was available a few days ago but isn't anymore. The drivers are installed on both PC's
and are compatible with Windows 7. -

Can somebody tell me why the connection drops after a while ?
Thanks already,

JNLP prompted to Save (only) in Windows Server 2003 SP1 over https
In Windows Server 2003 when using https to download the jnlp and jars, IE 6.0 prompts to Save the jnlp file. It does not give the option to open it straight from IE..
The IE settings are:
Do not save encrypted files to disk - off/unchecked
Empty Temp Internet Files when browser is closed - off/unchecked
Using Apache and Tomcat5 with the Mime type set correctly to application/x-java-jnlp-file.
When using http, the jnlp launches web start just fine.
When using https on WinXP and Win2000, the jnlp launches just fine.
It seems to be a Win2003Svr/IE security check that will not allow the jnlp to be launched directly.
There have been a few mentions of this on the web, but no solutions have been posted that I could find.
I am using jre 1.4.2_06. I tried 1.4.2_08 because that WebStart security bug was fixed, but the same issue was occurring. It seems like IE is doing it.
It doesn't get to WebStart until after saving the file and then double clicking it.
I have tried most of the IE settings to see if they helped, but to no avail...Hello.
I'm glad someone brought this problem up.
We have about 1000 external customers using webstart for approx. 3 years with runtimes
varying from 1.4.1_XX to 1.5.0_XX. We have the same problem with some customers being prompted by a dialog and what to do with the JNLP file. When these customers try a testing link to a webstart app over HTTP they are not prompted. Only when using our business app. over HTTPS and with Internet Explorer. This behavior does not occur only in Win server 2003 but in several
OS from Windows 2000 , XP Home/Pro SP1 SP2 , Citrix Metframe ..you name it. We have known this for years now and not being able to do something about it since we can't reproduce it. All I know for sure is that IE is behind it all and it's not surprising since it is a part of the OS. When using other browsers like Mozilla or FireFox, it works fine.
The customers are now forced to save the JNLP file and launch the app that way. Not acceptable
Is there some registry change that someone knows of to correct this problem.
Regards

I think I may have discovered the solution to installing CFMX7 on Windows Server 2003 SP1
I have not tried to reproduce this method so it may not be a
solution, but it worked for me. After many hours of trying to get
CFMX7 to install on a new server with a fresh install of Windows
Server 2003 with SP1, I stumbled across this and it actually
worked. Using the coldfusion-702-win.exe installer, I right clicked
on the .exe and even though I was logged in as an administrator I
received the option to Run as, so I decided to give it a shot. I
chose the option to run as Current User, but I unchecked the box
'Run this program with restricted access'. After I did this, the
install went through error free.I have not tried to reproduce this method so it may not be a
