Crystal Reports 9 called from a VB6 application - Invalid TLV record

I have a VB6 app that calls a Crystal Reports 9 CRViewer9. On two PC" I got "Invalid TLV record". From what I read I think that there is a problem with a .dll but I not sure which one so I reinstalled Crystal Reports 9 on one PC and it corrected the problem. However when I tried this solution on the 2nd PC (XP SP3) I get
Error 1904. Module commonobjmodel..dll failed to register. HRESULT -2147024770.
If I press Ignore, I get the same message for several other .dll's. I tried going to the DOS command and use REGSVR32 but it fails as well.
Any suggestions?

hello,
A couple of possible causes. They have an older version of CR which installed crpe32.dll into the \windows\system32 folder. If so rename it as well as the \windows\Crystal folder.
You don't have all of the required dependencies on the work station.
Or you don't have permission, must have local PC Admin rights, to install software.

4.5 to 6i migration or report calling from forms in XE???

Hi Friends,
I really appreciate your helping tendency. Let me explain the whole scenario.
My application basically consists of
Forms [32 Bit] Version 5.0.6.8.0 (Production)
Report Builder 3.0.5.8.0
Oracle Enterprise Edition Release 9.2.0.1.0 - Production
Now we migrated our database into Oracle Database 10g Express Edition Release 10.2.0.1.0 - Production. After the migration all the existing forms and report individually were running without any problem. But there was a huge problem. Whenever I tried to call any report from any form the report engine appeared and then stopped responding. So report calling from forms was not possible after the database migration. I was suggested by someone from OTN forum to migrate my forms and reports into 6i. I have started doing the migration using ifcmp60. WIth forms 6i, reports can be called from forms. But I am facing problem in every other steps. There are many things are not working after the migration though the migration log shows no error. For example, COMMIT_FORM, EXECUTE_QUERY (for detail table), LOV, TOOL.GETVAR lots of things are not working.
My application has 200 forms and 250 reports.
Please help and advise on:
How to call reports from form when the database is XE Or
How to overcome the stated migration problem
Rgds,
Luther

Dear Mark:
I have two choices. I can either migrate to 6i or I can go with the existing 4.5. If I go with 4.5 ......the reports are not being called from forms. This problem is happening after I changed the database from 9i to XE. Please advise what to do so that I can keep my forms in 4.5, database in XE and can call reports from forms.
Rgds,
Luther

Invalid TLV Record - Crystal Report XI R2

Hi I am getting "Invalid TLV Record" when opening crystal report on production server. After recycling the application pool the problem getting solved.
Event viewer Shows this error:
Error: File /CrystalReports/Viewer/ASP/RDCrptserver11.asp Unexpected error. A trappable error (E06D7363) occurred in an external object. The script cannot continue running..
Crystal Report XI developer edition was installed in the production server and with out unistalling the XI version we deployed the XI R2(side by side installation) using CrystalReports11_5_NET_2005.msi - Service Pack4 for .Net( for exporting as pdf) and RDC Compnents using Crystal Report XI R2 Service pack 4 Merge modules
Reports are showing using ActiveX Viewer with classic ASP in our ASP.Net 2.0 Application.
But the reports are still using Crystal Report XI RDC not XI R2 RDC because the XI RDC Viewer was already installed in users machines.
Thanks in advance

Please re-post if this is still an issue to the Legacy Application Development SDKs Forum or purchase a case and have a dedicated support engineer work with you directly

Problem to run the Crystal report inside from SAP B1 based on SQL views.

Hello,
I have a problem to run my Crystal report inside from SAP B1 which is based on SQL views.And the SQL views are stored in a separate database in SQL server.The error which i am getting is saying the the tablename does not exist.What i need to do in order to sort this problem.
Great if somebody can help me to sort out this so that i can run my report based on SQL views stored on separate database other than SAP databases inside from SAP B1.
Edited by: rozenagrawal on Apr 19, 2011 11:51 AM

Try using a SQL synonym in your company database for the views outside the company database. I don't know if SBO will let you get away with it, but its worth a shot.
If your company database is MyCompany and you have a view called MyView in Views database, assuming the view belongs to schema dbo, and you want the synonym to belong to dbo schema in your company database, run this:
Use MyCompany
go
create synonym dbo.OutsiderView for
Views.dbo.MyView
go
select * from OutsiderView
The select statement should return the contents of MyView in the Views database while you are connected to your MyCompany database.
For more info, see the Books Online for MSSQL on topic synonym.
You will need to change your CR options to include displaying synonyms along with tables, views, etc. You may also need to grant select to B1 users.

Crystal Report 2008 Deployment - Delphi 2007 application

Hi,
I have got Crystal Report 2008 and developed some reports using them.
I had integrated these reports with a Delphi 2007 application. My application works fine on my box where I have installed CR2008.
Please note - the previous version of Crystal report i used with my application was 5.
I also identified CR_runtime 2008- most of the dll's inside win32_x86 directory and tried to package and created installer of my application. I deployed my application on another box and what I noticed is it gives me OpenEngine error. Copying required dll's doesn't solves problem as I feel there is a need for registry variables too, but not sure of how to go about it.
Is it that I need CR208 , the whole Business objects installed on all deploymnet boxes? If then i need to get licensed copies?
Or is it ok I can download just the CR2008 runtime and install on the deployment boxes.
My application is a standalone application and it just uses to view the reports already created- picking values from the database.
Can I use CR_runtime installer - free trial and deploy on the other boxes and use my application so to view the already created reports.
Please help - I am stuck as how to package my application so users can view the report.
Thanks in Advance,
Shruthi

Hi Jonathan,
Thanks so much... for the reply .
I had downloaded CR runtime - msi file and tried for deployment on my deployment box. But it asks for the product key while installing.
If I had to do this on all of my customer boxes, then can I use the same product key/license code? or the free time trial version - license code that comes with a CR runtime trial setup.
Or should I purchase license for deploying the runtime or msi to all boxes?
Please let me know what should I do......
Thanks in advance,
~shruthi

Crystal report viewer from portlet

Hi,
I have a problem with opening Crystal report viewer from portlet. I am using Spring portletMVC but this doesnt matter in this case. After clicking some button a controller process form in method where is access to ActionRequest, ActionResponse. But how can I "redirect" with some parameters to plain JSP page where I can write something like this:
CrystalReportViewer viewer = new CrystalReportViewer();
     viewer.setReportSource(rcd.getReportSource());
     viewer.processHttpRequest(request, response, getServletConfig().getServletContext(), out);
     viewer.dispose();
Oh, perharps is understandable, sorry for my English and thanks for helping. Any code of link would be wonderful.

I haven't worked with Crystal Reports in quite awhile, but in the past I've written code to launch Crystal Reports using OLE. If I recall correctly, there existed an ActiveX control that could be embedded into VB forms, and the like. I'm unsure, however, whether they continue to support this mechanism. Given that your requirements do not allow CLIENT_HOST or DDE, however, I am guessing that OLE automation would also be unacceptable.
Have you looked at WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT?

Crystal Reports functionality from Save The Cat

Sorry if I've missed this in the presentation video since I've only watched half of it, so I have no idea if this has been considered for development.
I use "Save The Cat" from Blake Snyder to storyboard my scenes with Crystal Reports - minus his structure.. and I create my own story templates and then drop the whole thing into "Final Draft".
If I had the flexibility to setup and re-use "structure" templates that would contain my scene cards with an overview of my scene cards as the structure under my script and the ability to toggle between the two...then where do I sign on the dotted line?
If you could integrate this functionality into this software - and as I say, I'm not sure if you've done this - then I'm sold. In other words, you build with the cards, and worry about the script later.
Cheers,
C.

I need more info from you. I have looked for info re. Powerbuilder 11.5 here:
http://www.sybase.com/products/modelingdevelopment/powerbuilder
but I can not find any mention of Crystal Reports as it would apply to Crystal Reports being part of Powerbuilder 11.5. So, I need more explanation of this:
I'm trying to use the Crystal Reports ocx from Powerbuilder 11.5
Also, in the title of this post, you mention:
Crystal Reports RDC from Powerbuilder.
RDC and OCX are quite different technologies. It's one or the other. Thus please provide the following info:
1) Is the CR component you are using (be it an OCX or RDC) part of Powerbuilder? Or have you purchased a stand-alone version of CR and are using the component in Powerbuilder?
2) What component are you actually referencing?
3) What is the version of the Crystal Reports you are using?

Problem with crystal reports get from All in One Best Practice package

Hi,
I tried to use Financial Statements crystal report download from All in One Best Practice package but encounter the below errors. I followed the guide in Manual Steps for Additional Datasource Creation to set up the additional data source. When i try to preview the report, I tried to set all the value to Null but the error message still appear. I believe this has something to do with the infoset but i not sure how to resolve this. Those report which connect to infoset doesnt seem to work for me.
Errors:
Failed to retrive data from database. (then i press OK)
database connector error: 'no item structure data' (then i press OK)
database connector error: 'RFC_Closed'
Please advice
Thank you

Hi Afzal,
I think you misunderstood. The crystal report i am talking about is the 23 crystal report template i get from All in One Best Practice package. All i need to do is follow the "Quick Guide to impletement SAP Best Practices for Business Intelligence V4.31" to make those template works. For those template that connect to Database type: SAP Table, Cluster or Function, i can make those work. The problem i facing now are those template (example: Financial Statements) that connect to Database type: SAP Info sets. The error i receive are stated in my first post.
Please advice

Invalid TLV record error

Post Author: CHTClay
CA Forum: Deployment
We have an app that was originally written in VB6 (using the ActiveX viewer) with reports designed in Crystal 8.5. A new executable was added to the app written in C# that uses (not embedded) two report files designed in Crystal 11.5. The VB6 code was modified to include references to the 11.0 RDC. The install program (before adding the reports to the C# module) used the following merge modules:
Crystal11_NET_EmbeddedReporting.msm, CrystalReports11_RDC_Designtime.msm, CrystalReports11_RDC_Runtime.msm, CrystaReports85_ActiveXControl.msm, CrystalReports85_Crpaig80.msm, CrystalReports85_Cpre32.msm and CrystalReports85_Imploder.msm.
This installation and the app ran perfectly. After adding the reports to the C# module we recompiled the install (using the same merge modules as above) and reinstalled the app. The VB6 reports ran as expected, but the two new reports failed because some Crystal Desicions components did not get installed.
After researching, I created a new install package with the following merge modules:
CrystalReports11_5_RDC_Designtime.msm, CrystalReports11_5_RDC_Runtime.msm, CrystalReports11_5_RDC_Reportengine.msm, CrystalReports11_5_RDC_License.msm, CrystaReports85_ActiveXControl.msm, CrystalReports85_Crpaig80.msm, CrystalReports85_Cpre32.msm and CrystalReports85_Imploder.msm.
Reinstalled the app. The two reports in the C# module work great, however, all of the reports associated with the VB6 code get an "Invalid TLV record" error.
I have researched this issue here and on the web with no joy!
Is Crystal Decisions and ActiveXviewer mutually incompatible? Are we missing something in the installation build?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

This has happened in the past when your code uses a generic prog id to create the object:application.CreateObject("CrystalRuntime.application")change toapplication.CreateObject("CrystalRuntime.application.115);Another thing you might want to try is to put the craxdrt115.dll into a COM+ package and give it administrative rights. KBase Article ID:c2017301This is a very generic error so it is hard to say what the problem is with so few details but I tried my best.

So if anyone has any ideas, please suggest.
