Crystal reports and JSP

Hi there, I would like to call crystal reports from JSP. How can I do that?
My system is:
Webserver: iPlanet 4.0 SP4
Crystal reports: 8.5 Developer version
Database: Oracle 8i version 8.1.6
S.O.: Solaris.
I tried the documentation from Seagate but there isn't examples and explanations in how to do this.
Do I need some component? Where can I get it, if I do?
Thankyou,
Gines

    I never really had much luck with this approach.
    Mind you I was using Crystal Reports 10, and as far as I recall it didn't allow setting/changing of database at this level.
    Things to check
    - can you create a database connection on your page with this URL/username/password?
    - what server are you using? Tomcat? WebLogic?
    I found this in your other post:
    Connection Information: {Server Name=ee6rpt, Connection String=DSN=s(ee6rpt);User ID=s(ee62test);Password=;UseDSNProperties=b(false), Database Name=, Database DLL=crdb_odbc.dll}That would indicate it is using odbc to connect to the database (crdb_odbc.dll). ODBC is a bad idea with java.
    The way I have got it to work for me (after much trial and error) was to in Crystal Reports to connect using the Oracle Driver, and specifying a tnsname - eg define REPORT_DS in tnsnames.ora.
    When running through the JRC, it looked for a JNDI datasource under that same name "REPORT_DS".
    Don't know if that will help you or not.
    Good luck,

  • Using Crystal reports in JSP

    Hi,
    I want to use Crystal report in jsp . I am running the jsp files in tomcat apache4.0 server.
    while executing the jsp files in tomcat , following class files are not being found:
    import="com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.application.*,
    com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.data.*,
    com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.lib.*
    can anyone plz tell where to get the required JAR file containing this classes or how to use crystal report in jsp.
    Regards,
    tommy

    The jars should be in your installed Crystal Reports folder( \Crystal Decisions\..\java\lib or something like that...). The problem is that your server (Tomcat and others) ignores the system classpath completely (it sets its own in its startup script).
    Therefore, in order for Tomcat to find the jars, those jars have to be placed in in %CATALINA_HOME%\common\lib\. There, they will be available for all your applications. If you don't want them available globally, put them in your particular webapp's WEB-INF\lib directory.

  • Printing Problem in Crystal Report From JSP

    I m calling crystal report from JSP.Report is parameterized.I m passing parameters from JSP.Report is displaying on the page,but when I try to print or export the report by pressing Print or export Button ,it displays an error message "Some parameters are missing values".
    Please guide my,what should I do? Following is the code.
    Good Bye
    AQ
    Vector fieldVector = new Vector();
    SPParameters spParams = new SPParameters();
    ReportFactory     reportFactory = new ReportFactory();
    // Setteing the report Name (Path Appended)
    reportFactory.setReportName(ReportsCoreDataConstants.REPORT_PATH.concat("Test_Rep2.rpt"));
    //Setting the parameters for the report
    ParameterField paramFeilds = null;
    System.out.println("fiscalYearCode:"+fiscalYearCode);     
    paramFeilds = spParams.createParams("IPFISCALCODE",fiscalYearCode);
    paramFeilds.setReportName("");
    fieldVector.add(paramFeilds);
    //Creating the ReportSourceInstance
    reportFactory.setFields(fieldVector);
    String exp = "";
    try {
         ReportFactory l_reportFactory=null;
         l_reportFactory = reportFactory;
         if (l_reportFactory != null) {
         CrystalReportViewer viewer = new CrystalReportViewer();
         viewer.setParameterFields(l_reportFactory.getFields());
         viewer.setOwnPage(true);
         viewer.setDisplayGroupTree(false);
         viewer.setHasZoomFactorList(false);
         viewer.setHasLogo(false);
         viewer.setHasPrintButton(true);
         viewer.setHasRefreshButton(true);
         viewer.setHasToggleGroupTreeButton(false);
         viewer.setHasViewList(false);
         viewer.setPrintMode(CrPrintMode.ACTIVEX);
         viewer.setSeparatePages(true);
         viewer.setEnableParameterPrompt(false);
         viewer.setReuseParameterValuesOnRefresh(true);
         viewer.setReportSource(l_reportFactory.createReport( request.getLocale() ));
         viewer.refresh();
         viewer.processHttpRequest(request, response, getServletConfig().getServletContext(),out);
         viewer.dispose();
    } catch(Exception e) {
         exp = e.toString();
         System.out.println("Exception in JSP : " + e.toString());
         e.printStackTrace();
    }

    I think ScreenRaghu is right. If you look at the generated source, your jsp becomes an action and processHttpRequest() method is invoked everytime some action happens. So when you click the export button, request object no longer has the values your report needs. Either put the values in session or via link or db or whatelse.

    ReportClientDocument So this class isn't found, probably because it's not in the server's classpath.
    If you really can't recognize a basic compilation error like this, you might re-consider your place in the JEE world.

  • Crystal Report and Log4net error 1.2.10

    Hi at all,
    I have problem on Crystal Report and log4net.
    It happens when I deploy the Web applications on the server.

    When I deploy my application on the target machine, where I have also installed the runtime 64 bit for Crystal Report, I found this error:

    I've tried everything, I've installed also the runtime 64 bit on the target/server machine.
    The problem is that the log4net is not registered in the windows\assembly directory on the target server ? Do I have to use the Gac util to register the log4net dll assembly ?
    Please help me, It one day that I'm facing this error, but I'm not able to solve.

  • Select multiple items from a list box as values for a parameter of crystal report and Oracle procedure

    -  I have a  Product list box (asp.net) used as multiple selected values for  a parameter. 
    - The Product ID is defined in the Oracle procedure as NUMBER data type. 
    -  In my crystal report, I have a parameter field allow multiple values as p_product_id type as Number.  This is the code in my Record Selection Formula for the report:
    ({?p_product_id}[1] = -1 OR {Procedure_name.product_id} in {p_product_id})
    -  In C#, this is my code
    List<decimal?> productUnit = new List<decimal?>();
    int counter = 0;
    decimal prod;
    for (int i = 0; i < lstProducts.Items.Count; i++)
                  if (lstProducts.Items[i].Selected)
                                if (decimal.TryParse(lstProduct.Items[i].Value, out prod))
                                    productUnit.Add((decimal?)prod);                              
                                    counter++;
           if (counter == 0)
                       productUnit.Add(-1);                      
    ReportingDAO rDataFactory = new ReportingDAO();
    retVal = rDataFactory.GetProductReport(productUnit);

             rptLog.Logon(retVal, "RPT_PRODUCT_DOWNLOAD");
             retVal.SetParameterValue("p_product_id", productUnit); 
    I keep having the "Value does not fall within the expected range" when I debug.  My question is, is the data type I used for procedure/Crystal report/ and C# correct ?  I always have problem with the data type.  Any help would be
    appreciated

    Do you have subreports in your reports?
    If yes, set the connection info for the subreports as well.
    Additionaly refer to the below discussion
    http://scn.sap.com/thread/3153289
    As you are using Crystal reports for ecllipse runtime libraries to build your jsp, you would need to post your dicussions in the below forum to get better response.

  • Crystal Reports and MII 11.5

    Are there any documents out there on the pros and cons of integrating Crystal Reports with MII?  Can it be done.  If so, how can my company do this?

    Hi,
    The Software Crystal Report is a software for creating reports very good and the MII is a software for creating reports and integrate your manufacturing and more ...
    Is possible integrate the two system, but I'm not view very advantages, because if you have installed MII in your company is much simpler to create the reports within the SAP MII.
    That depends on your business if uses the reports to Crystal Reports and want to keep this software integrates the software, if your company wants more intelligence use SAP MII I think much better.
    I not view documents in SDN about Crystal Reports and SAP MII.
    See also on Xcelsius other tool very good.
    Hope this helps...
