Crystal reports not running in infoview

Hi ,
Created a report using excel as datasource via odbc DSN. Report runs fine in Crystal but gives an error in Infoview ." database logon information is either incomplete or incorrect"
Have tried every possible way to make it workou but in vain.
Pls suggest any solutions.

Hi Stratos, In your previous reply below
"You have to create the DSN to your excel file also on your BOBJ server as you did on your local workstation. When CR runs in the InfoView it will try to locate the DSN on the BOBJ server. In order to do this correctly please use odbcad32.exe.
Importing the Excel file in the BO repository does not really help. You have to consider to copy the Excel file on your BOBJ server or copy it in a shared drive (which is accessible from both your local workstation and the BOBJ server).
Regards,
Stratos"
I am assuming these are two different methods: In 1st one i will need to make connection to ODBC and in second one it will be Access/Excel (in crystal)
Am I right?

Reports not running in Infoview

I just migrated some reports from our Dev server to Test Server. The reports in Test Infoview do not run,. How ever I am able to run them in Crystal designer.
This did not happen in the past when ever I migrated the reports.
Any suggestions on what could be wrong? Using BO XI
The report in Infoview window keeps on running but does not even display the prompts for parameters. There is no error message, not sure whats going on.
Also I just noticed, there are other reports in different folder in Infoview which connect to a different Universe, If I try to run those reports from infoview, they can run. Onlt the ones that I migrated did not run.
Pls help.

Hi,
Try this step; open the same report in crystal reports designer. Go to file menu-> page setup -> check the option u201CNo printeru201D. Save the report again back to the enterprise and then try and run the report.
Let me know if this works for you.
Thanks,

Crystal Report not running

SAP users are imported into BOE, assigned to the same group.
When I logon to BOE InfoView with user A, I can execute the Crystal Report (built on top of SAP BW Query).
When I logon to BOE InfoView with user B, I can not execute the Crystal Report (built on top of SAP BW Query), followin error:
Error in File Test_Crystal_Report_Finance: Database Connector Error
Both user A and B having the same role, I dont understand why the problem from.
Please help.

Error in File Test_Crystal_Report_Finance: Database Connector Error
The error is generic, but something to do with accessing the database.
If you can execute the CR with User A, and not User B, then obivously it has something to do with thier profile/authorization.
1) In BW ->SU01, check and compare the two user Role and Profile tab.
2) Logon with User A, and execute the BW Query via RSRT.
3) Then logon as User B, and execute the BW Query via RSRT.
Let see what you get with above 3 steps.

Crystal report server2008 (XI R2): InfoView Request timeout error

HI
Crystal report server2008 (XI R2): InfoView Request timeout error
            Some reports which are taking more than 10 to 15 minutess while running through InfoView gives error as follows:
An error has occured: Request timed out.
This error appears within the crystal report server and when user tries to access through browser client desktop also. Sometimes it prompts the error as follows when users try to access through browsers from there desk i.e through proxy connection.
   The proxy server received an invalid response from an upstream server.
   The proxy serer could not handle the request POST/report/CrystalReports/Viewrpt.aspx.
    Reason: Error reading from remote server
The timeout setting of all web.config files under infoviewapp, infoviewappactions, platform services, crystal reports folders have been checked and the default timeout 20 minutes is changed to 30 minutes and IIS is restarted, but still users are getting request timeout error within 10 to 15 minutes while running a crystal report. Even admin user.

Crystal Report 2008 - Run to Printer error

We upgraded our FSCM8.9 to FSCM9.1. We can run the crystals to file. But while running it to a network printer, I receive the following message. "Crystal Runtime exception: The printer specified can not be found. It may not be accessible in the current security context."
Do any have faced same problem with crystal reports 2008.
Thanks InAdvance

We had to define all the printers to the Server. Once defined, the crystal reports would run and print.

Hi,
Put an image field in your report, then change the image’s Graphic Location:
right click the image, select Format Graphic, select Picture tab, click the conditional-formula button that look like a x2 and set the formula’s text to
the name of the formula or parameter field that will contain the image’s URL.
Save the formula and click the OK button. Save the report and test it.
Be carefull with the size of the image field. If this size is not equal to the image itself it could get resized.
Good Tutorial

Does end user need Crystal Reports to run saved reports

This seems like such a simple question, but I am unable to find the answer in the documentation, so here it goes.
On UCCX does end user need Crystal Reports to run save custom reports that were created using Crystal Reports

Hi
No, UCCX comes with the 'Historical Reporting Client' which contains a Crystal runtime that renders the reports.
You only need Crystal Pro if you wish to author new reports for the system.

Crystal Report not working when posting the report to the Crystal Server.

Hi All,
I created a report using Crystal Reports 2008 with two ODBC connections (User DSN's). When I run the report in Crystal Reports (where I originally created it) it runs fine with no problems.
I am now trying to load it on Crystal Server 2008. When I try to run this report in InfoView, I get a message: "Error Failed to open the connection." I am thinking that it has to do with the ODBC connections but I am not quite sure. Could someone lead me in the right direction? How will the report that I now saved in the repository on the server connect to the ODBC stream?
Thank you in advance.

Solved my problem. I had to tweak the ODBC drivers on the server.

Crystal Report not Adopting all possible Dropdown Values from BEx Variable

Hi all,
I am having an issue in a Crystal report where the drop down parameter that is sourced from a BEx query variable does not include all the possible values in the cube (or in master data). After learning my lesson the first time of not changing the name of the variable or changing it to dynamic (this causes it to break), I had the understanding that the value list may not be complete when running the report in the Crystal client or in the viewer, however, I thought it should be correct when published to the BOE and run in infoview. I am getting the same incomplete list in infoview. I published the report into infoview using the Crystal 2008 desktop client, not the /CRYSTAL/RPTADMIN transaction.
I know there are a couple ways of sourcing a Crystal report from a BW query - using MDX vs. not, etc. I created this report using the SAP menu > "Create new report from a query". I don't believe Crystal will easily let you use that menu option to create a report off two BW queries joined together (which is what I am doing), so I built it off one originally (using the SAP menu), then added the other later on. I have the checkbox for "Use MDX driver with support for Multiple structures" checked. In database expert, my "Selected Tables" both are of database type "SAP BW Query".
Do I have the right understanding of how the value list should work when sourced from a BEx variable? If so, can anyone offer any suggestions for getting the value list populated correctly?
Here's some info:
Crystal version: CR2008, version 12.2.4.507
BOE version 3.1
SAP BW 7.01 EhP 6
Thanks,
Chad

Hi,
- in the Crystal Reports designer the list of values is not online and there is a maximum number of values - configured by a registry setting:
(windows 7)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Business Objects\Suite 12.0\SAP\BWQueryReportWrapper
Key: MaxPickListSize
and correct you can not change the name of the variable or set it to dynamic as the definition is based on the BEx query.
I know there are a couple ways of sourcing a Crystal report from a BW query - using MDX vs. not, etc. I created this report using the SAP menu > "Create new report from a query". I don't believe Crystal will easily let you use that menu option to create a report off two BW queries joined together (which is what I am doing), so I built it off one originally (using the SAP menu), then added the other later on. I have the checkbox for "Use MDX driver with support for Multiple structures" checked. In database expert, my "Selected Tables" both are of database type "SAP BW Query".
The checkbox on the Multi Structure is not for the option to combine 2 Bex queries - it is for Bex queries with 2 structures and the BW query driver has been deprecated already and you have to use the MDX Driver.
Do I have the right understanding of how the value list should work when sourced from a BEx variable? If so, can anyone offer any suggestions for getting the value list populated correctly?
in Crystal Reports Designer the list is static and when you publish the report using the BW Publishing to your SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise system the list becomes dynamic in InfoView.

Crystal reports not working in windows 7 but working fine on XP

I have a VB .net 2005 windows app. It has been working on Windows XP (32-bit) environment for a while and now we are moving to Windows 7 (64-bit). The program runs fine except for the reports which was written using the crystal report built in with VB .net
2005. I get an error Database login and it asks for user ID and password. HELP PLEASE !!!!
I am using the following connection string:
DBconn.ConnectionString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" & str_data & ";Persist Security
Info=true;user ID=Admin;Jet OLEDB:Database Password= mypassword"
And on the REPORT form I have the following code

Dim crReportDocument As CrySelectedDivisionSummary
crReportDocument = New CrySelectedDivisionSummary

Crystal report not able to see a SQL view in Business One

Hi all
I am trying to create a report using views I have created in the Business One database.
I can run the report fine when using the Crystal Designer, but when I try to Preview the external Crystal report file from within Business One, it comes up with an error 'The table 'xxxx' can not be found'.
I have tried to make the connect an SAP Business One connection, and also tried it with the OLEDB connection. Neither worked.
(I can however preview other 'table' reports fine)
I am running SAP B1 8.8 SP 0 pl 15 and SQL2005.
As views are allowable in B1 databases I would hope that we can use them in our Crystal reports. Can we use views?
Or is it my setup/Crystal setup that is causing me issues.
Any help much appreciated.
Thanks
Denise

Hi Gordon and Kevin
Thank you both for your replies.
Gordon - great idea to use the Command mechanism. I had not thought of that but will give that a try.
Kevin - pleased to hear views are allowed as I often use them in my reports.
I think I have a more basic issue with my setup of Crystal & B1 on the system - and perhaps this is causing my inability to use views.
My current approach is to install Crystal Designer on the server. I know that it is preferable to put the designer elsewhere but I am not able to connect using SAP Business One connection at all from the client machines. Frustration! (Keeps saying Logon failed and I KNOW I have the correct logon details)
Will update this thread once I have set up the designer on the server and hopefully succeeded in including a view (or command) in a report.
Thanks for your help
Denise
