Migrating all configuration from Crystal Reports Server XI R2 to Crystal Server 2013

Hi,
We're running an old Crystal Reports Server XI R2 SP version (boe 11.5) and we're planning to start using Crystal Server 2013
As far as I know no upgrade is possible and that's not needed either.
Instead I'm interested in the migrate possibilities. I saw this thread but it doesn't answer all the questions https://scn.sap.com/thread/3462417
So first I will install Crystal Server 2013 on a new server and then I use some migrate tool.
Questions:
- does the migrate tool support migrating from my version CR server XI R2 SP1 to Crystal Server 2013 ?
- does the migrate tool copy all report schduling information (recurring schedule, destination etc)? We have ~1000 scheduled reports so doing manually is not an option
- does the migrate tool copy Business views/Business view connections ?
(- odbc data sources are probably not copied but that's ok)
-Mikael

Hi Mikael,
Since you're already on CR Server XI R2, you can use the Upgrade Management Tool to migrate all the content to CR Server 2013.
Anwers to your questions:
1) Yes, the Upgrade Management Tool does support this kind of migration
2) It does seem that the UMT allows you to move all report instances as well as the scheduled jobs over to the new server
3) I've always had issues with Business Views when using Import Wizard however I'm not sure whether they work well with the new UMT. In any case, I always prefer to export the LOVs and BVs from within the Business View Manager to a .xml file and then import them in the higher version of the Server, again, from within the Business View Manager.

Migrating Crystal Reports Server XI to a new Server

Post Author: david_okeefe
CA Forum: Deployment
Hi,I am trying to migrate an existing Crystal Reports installation from an old server to a new server. To prevent interruption of service, the new server must be able to be online at the same time as the old server (thus it must have a different name). I installed Crystal Reports Server XI and told it to create its CMS database by copying the existing CMS database. Unfortunately, I received an unspecified error ("failed to received first object from source database"). After that, I opted to create a new, default CMS database. I tried using the import wizard to migrate the reports to the new server. The import wizard managed to bring over all of the folders, users, and groups, but not any of the reports. When I looked at the migration log, it gave me an error stating that it could not find the parent folder. I have no real idea how to address this issue. On a related note, I also do not know how to point crystal at the reports repository on the new server. I tried using the Data Source Migration wizard to copy the reports from the old server to the new server. Unfortunately, it didn't appear to register any of the new reports. Given what I have already tried, I am not sure how to proceed.Any help would be appreciated.Thanks,David

Migrate from Crystal Report Server XI R2 to new Eclipse RAS SDK Question

Hi,
I am migrating Crystal Report Server XI R2 RAS SDK to Eclipse RAS SDK which seems to be quite easy.
I have the following old code which basicly programmaticly creates a Report from scratch adds a Table and then
populates the Report with a Pojo Collection.
 
Now before I would have : 
 
Table oTable = new Table(); 
oTable.setName("reportTable"); 
pbConnAttributes.putStringValue("QE_DatabaseType", "Java Beans Connectivity"); 
pbConnAttributes.putStringValue(PropertyBagHelper.CONNINFO_DATABASE_DLL, "crdb_javabeans.dll"); 
PropertyBag pbLogonProperties = new PropertyBag(); 
pbLogonProperties.putStringValue("Java Bean Classes", className); 
pbLogonProperties.putStringValue("SSOKEY", ""); 
pbConnAttributes.put("QE_LogonProperties", pbLogonProperties); 
pbConnAttributes.putBooleanValue(PropertyBagHelper.CONNINFO_SSO_ENABLED, false); 
oTable.getConnectionInfo().setKind(ConnectionInfoKind.CRQE); 
oTable.getConnectionInfo().setUserName(""); 
oTable.getConnectionInfo().setPassword(null); 
oTable.getConnectionInfo().setAttributes(pbConnAttributes); 
//following statement throws Exception 
doc.getDatabaseController().addTable(oTable, null); 
 
getDatabaseController().setDataSource(pojoCollection, pojoClass.class,"reportTable", "reportTable");
 
 
Now wenn using the c lient eclipse RAS SDK which pbConnAttributes should I use? 
No matter which ones I choose I get a Bad Driver Exception or Named Exception. 
Can anybody help?

Drop down boxes ok in Crystal Reports but not ok in Crystal Reports Server

I have the following problem with "dynamic dropdowns"
Initially, I have a Crystal Report (.rpt). It has two dynamic drop downs. They work
in both Crystal Reports Designer (preview) and Crystal Reports Server (right-click-View).
The first drop down is the result of a rather complex sql query. The second drop down
is a child of the first.
I make a small change to the sql "WHERE" clause using the Crystal Reports Designer. It works fine in preview.
I save (Enterprise mode) to Crystal Server. I use Business View Manager to configure
the _DC_n object. (I did notice that the .._DC_n gets incremented by one.)
The _DF object seems to know about the updated sql so I do not have change it.
However, when I go to back to Crystal Reports Server, and right-click-View, the
"dynamic dropdown" is not working properly. I can not make sense
of what has been retrieved.
Please tell me what is most likely to have gone wrong here? The Business View Manager
seemed to knew about the sql change. But Crystal Reports Server has
not responded to the change in the same way as Crystal Reports Designer.
...thank you, Stan

When you publish a report to Crystal Server, the dynamic prompts are no longer handled in the report itself. Instead depending on how they're published, they either go away or they're published to the "repository" and managed through the "Business View Manager" (BVM), which is available as part of the Client Tools install.
To get the dynamic prompt into the repository, you have to check the "Enable Repository Refresh" checkbox at the bottom of the "Save As" screen after you log in to CRS. However, doing it this way is NOT best practice, especially if you're using the query from the report to provide the data for the prompt. If you do this for all of your reports, you get a LOT of bloat in the repository objects and it makes the job of migrating from one version of CRS to another MUCH more difficult!
What I've done in the past to get a simple "sample" prompt published is create a report that just contains the data that I want to have in the dynamic parameter using a single table - this is usually what I call a "lookup" table that has a "code" field and a "description" or "name" field. I then create a dynamic parameter in that report that just pulls the data from the single table. I'll publish the report to my favorites with the Repository Refresh enabled.
I then run the BVM and look for the following objects (default location is under "Cascading Dynamic Prompts":
<prompt name>_DC - This is the Data Connection for the prompt. Edit this, enter the password, and set it to "Never Prompt" for the password. NOTE: This DC can be reused by multiple prompts. If you continue to add prompts through publishing Crystal Reports with prompts, you will get MANY of these that all point to the same database!
<prompt name>_DF - This is the Data Foundation for the prompts. When you create a new one, you need to select an existing DC and then either one or more tables or write a command to provide the data for your prompt. It works much like the Database Explorer in Crystal. The one that was just saved has all of the information required for the prompt.
<prompt name>_BE - This is the Business Element. When you create one, you have to select and existing DF and one or more fields. You can also create a filter on the data. This is used to generate the SQL that will be run to provide the data for the prompt.
<prompt name>_ BV - This is the Business View. When you create one, you have to select the Business Element. I'm not sure of the exact purpose of this, but you have to have one in order to set up the "List of Values".
<prompt name> - This is the List of Values (LOV). This defines what fields are available for the prompt itself.
You can create folders to organize these objects so that its easier to maintain.
To use a LOV that you've defined in BVM to feed data to new dynamic prompts, do the following:
1. Connect to CRS from Crystal.
2. Create/Edit your prompt.
3. Set the prompt to be dynamic.
4. Under "Choose a Data Source", select "Existing" and select the LOV from the drop-down list.
5. Update the properties in the parameter.
When viewing or scheduling a report, the dynamic prompts will run through the Crystal Reports 2013 Report Application Server in CRS (it will be named differently if you're not on CRS 2013, but will have "Report Application Server" in the name.)

Do I need to uninstall Crystal Reports Server 2008?

Hello,
We recently installed Crystal Reports Server 2008 and began migrating reports off the CR Enterprise 9 platform and things were going pretty well.
One of our other locations began moving over their reports that are ran against an Oracle database and cannot get passed a connectivity issue. We found the following:
Oracle connectivity issues
If you are installing Crystal Reports Server 2008 V1 on a 64-bit Windows
platform, Oracle database connectivity issues may occur. If Crystal Reports
Server 2008 V1 is installed to a location that contains brackets in the folder
path, for example, C:\Program Files (x86)\, it will be unable to connect
to an Oracle database. Certain Oracle database clients such as version
10.2.0.2 or 10.1.0.2, may not function properly with any application that
has brackets in its folder path. When installing Crystal Reports Server 2008
V1, select an installation path that does not contain brackets, such as
C:\Program Files x86\ or contact Oracle support for an updated database
client.
We of course have everything installed in the default (x86) folder. My question is, is there a way to move the installation, or do I need to uninstall/re-install? If I need to re-install, is there a way to back-up and reload all of my existing jobs?

Hello,
CR must have the Oracle client installed. Unless you use a Wired Driver, which has the client engine built in, CR requires a client to be installed. It never has worked without the client installed.
Also, I've found that if you have more than one Oracle client installed it causes problems. Make sure the first one in the PATH statement points to the latest version of the client.
And yes you are correct, ODBC is a layer on top of the native client so it will be slower obviously because it has to go through one more layer of dll's to get to the server.
Thanks again

I can also see some sample reports which are installed during installation.
Now my next task is to create Crystal Reports using Crystal Report Server XI R2. How can we create a crystal report now by only using Crystal Report Server XI R2?
Do we have to install some other application to create Crystal Reports? I donot see any link on my server which i can use to create crystal reports. The only links which i can see are :

Two ways to create reports:
1) You install the Crystal reports Designer (CRW32.exe).
With your Crystal Report Server, you should also have received a second CD that would have the CR designer.
2) You use the RAS SDK and create reports on the fly using the RAS report creation APIs - .NET or Java. Since you are in the .NET developer forum, I assume you might be interested in the .NET RAS SDK. Here is a list of resources i would recommend:

Crystal Reports Server 8.5/Web Reporting Launch Kit/Crystal Enterprise 8.5

I have an old IIS 5.0 server which is serving up our company's Crystal 8.5 reports. The time has come to decommision that server, so I would like to migrate the IIS configuration to a new server. However, I have been unable to locate the media necessary to install the server side component on the new IIS server. The first question I have is, what is the product name I should be looking for? My research has been inconclusive, identifying Crystal Reports Server 8.5, Web Reporting Launch Kit, and Crystal Reports 8.5 Enterprise Edition as possible product names. My second question is, how can I go about obtaining replacement media for the product? Thanks in advance for your assistance.

Hi Peet,
The software might work on windows 2008 server. However, if there are any error messages or bugs found while using it will not be addressed as the product has not be tested on this platform. (As also the technical support for versions 9.2 and earlier has already ended, so Product Group no longer works on the bugs or supported platform for these products.)
A better idea would be to install the products CR 10 and higher on Operating Systems which have been tested. That ways you can be sure that the the product is supposed to work correctly on a particular setup.
Please do let us know your thoughts about it.
Cheers!

Upgrading from CR 10 Embedded Edition to Crystal Reports (server) xi

We recently upgraded from CR10 Embedded edition to Crystal Reports Server Xi. In our application the users access the reports via a web page (where they enter the paratemeters) and the report is displayed using the Crystal Reports viewer. The CR server xi was recently installed and all the SDK references have been as mentioned in this document: https://boc.sdn.sap.com/node/724. But now when the reports are accessed via the web page we are encountering the error 'All of your system's 0 Concurrent Access Licenses are in use at this time or your system's license key has expired. Try again later or contact your administrator to obtain additional licenses.---- Error code:-2147217397 Error code name:enterpriseLogonFailed'
Can anyone share your thoughts or provide suggestions?
Thanks,
in advance!
SG.

Hello SG,
A common issue that arises when migrating from Crystal Enterprise 10 Embedded to Crystal Reports Server XI applications that use the Report Application Server (RAS) SDK.
The RAS supports two modes of operation - "Unmanaged" and "Managed" reporting.
With CE10Embedded, you'd be using Unmanaged Reporting, where you'd copy the Crystal Report rpt file to the RAS server, and reference it by path when opening it in the ReportClientDocument class instance.
With Crystal Reports Server XI, you can use either Unmanaged Reporting, or Managed Reporting. Managed means you'd publish the rpt file to be "managed" by the CR Server Central Management Server (CMS). In code, you'd log onto the CR Server, retrieve the ReportAppFactory from the CMS, retrieve the report from the InfoStore, and pass it into the ReportAppFactory to create the ReportClientDocument.
I'm assuming you're still using "Unmanaged Reporting" with Crystal Reports Server.
If so, each report request will be authenticated in the CMS using the "Guest" account, and each request will use up a Concurrent Access License (CAL).
If you're getting the exception on the first report request, then that likely means you have the complimentary copy of CR Server XI, that comes with zero CALs and five Named User Licenses.
You won't be able to use unmanaged reporting with the complimentary version. You may want to modify your code to use managed reporting.
If you're getting the exception on the sixth or subsequent request, then that likely means you've purchased CR Server XI, and the base edition comes with 5 CALs.
If you contact sales, you can inform them of the number of users you have, and how frequently they request reports, and sales can recommend a license to match your requirements.
Sincerely,
Ted Ueda

Crystal Report Server XIR2 upgrade to CRS 2008V1

Hi,
I am planning to upgrade my Crystal Report Server XI R2 to CRS 2008 V1. I was thinking of testing in separate machine as a fresh installation and migrating everything using the Import Wizard. I have one concern on this- after I test everything on that new machine, the existing Crystal Production Server machine will no longer be used right? I was wondering if my boss wants me to use the same old machine for production. If so then would I be able to migrate everything from that new test machine to the existing Production machine without affecting the old version in production. For that do I have to install a fresh copy in existing production and then migrate from test machine?

Hi,
well you will certainly affect the old version in production.
Cause when you initially migrated from Rel.2 to 2008 you cant go back. So unfortunalty you have to install 2008 on the old server.
Regards
-Seb.

Upgrading from Crystal Reports Server V0 to V1

We're looking into upgrading Crystal Reports Server V0 to V1. According to the upgrade guide we have to do a complete uninstall of our V0 before installing V1. It seems risky to uninstall before we have a working version of the upgrade. Wondering if anyone out there has gone through this process and if so what were your experiences? Did you have a method to test the upgrade process before uninstalling V0?
Thanks!

Crystal Reports Server XI R2 - RAS service will not start

We had a copy of Crystal Reports Server XI R2 running on a Windows 2003 SBS Server and the database running on SQL Server 2000 on the same box. We were forced to upgrade this server Windows 2003 SBS Server 2003 R2 with SQL Server 2005. The upgrade worked fine however after the upgrade we could no longer open reports in infoview.
We soon realised that the RAS(Report Application Server) service was stopped however we could not start it.
We tried doing a full uninstall(deleting the directory and registry info) and reinstall several times on the same server pointing to the existing database and trying to create a new database in both MYSql and SQL Server but again the same problem. While our licensing agreement means we can only install it on one server we tried on another and again we had the same issue.
We see several errors in the event viewer of the server, these are:
-Unable to create the Corba OSCA factory and register it on the eBus (Source:BusinessObjects_crystalras)
-Failed to register with the CMS 'Server Name'. Please make sure the CMS is up and running. Attempting an automatic retry. (Source: We see this error show on a fair few of the service after stopping and firing up services, but they seem to disappear)
-An error occurred while creating a Page Server subprocess.(Source: BusinessObjects_pageserver)
If I try firing the crystalras executable just for interest sakes I get a "No valid license found for this product" error.
We thought it may have been a license issue caused by the upgrade but have been told that the license key still appears to be valid.
Any help is appreciated.

Hey did anyone ever answer your question, I have exactly the same problem 4 years later, sigh

Crystal Reports Server 2008 dispose not closing document

Hey everyone,
I;m running some reports through Crystal reports 2008 server (no service packs) using the RAS sdk and Java.
This was working swimmingly for a while until yesterday when the server hosting the RAS and app server fell over. I tracked it down to a problem with the RAS server. The error i got in my logs was General Exception, Report SDK Exception Not enough memory for operation. I reran the process and when i watched task manager the memory being allocated to crystalras.exe went through the roof! it went from 50k to 1.8g of ram in under 10 minutes.
I tried lots of the other suggestions in here for the errors about memory that are similar to mine (increasing the heap memory etc.) and none of them worked.
One thing i noticed though is that when I run the process and watch the metrics page of the RAS server on the management console the number of Open documents does not decrease even though i am 100% totally and utterly calling .close and .dsipose after every report i open. Definitely. Ive debugged it a million times and it is calling these methods. It is successfully releasing the connections fine but does not seem to releasing the open documents. After the Open documents metric went down to 0 (im presuming after a timeout) the memory that crystalras.exe was reduced. I then changed the timeout tag in CRConfig.xml to 1 minute to see would this help out any but the open documents did not timeout any faster.
Would i be right in thinking that these open documents would be causing my problem of the aggregated memory? Im at my wits end here so any piece of help is greatly appreciated!

Hi Ted,
Thank you for getting back to me, i was on vacation there for a while so that is why i didnt get back to you.
When I call reportClientDocument.isOpen() just before i dispose of the report it is true and after i dispose of it it correclty returns false.
I am really stressing out over this as we are reduced to running 500 reports through the server (one after another) and then stopping the process and restarting the RAS server and then running another 500 reports.
crystalras.exe gets up to about 2g of ram consumed for only 500 reports.
I even changed some of the timeout settings on the settings page of the management console to see would they timeout and release the memory but alas it didnt release as much as a byte. I left it for 3 days and it didnt deallocate one piece of memory.
Im currently investigating is there some way from my code that I can restart the RAS server, either through the SDK or through a windows process or scheduled task.
Ted, as far as i can see there are no service packs for Crystal Reports Server 2008, is that right? when i go to the downloads page there only ones listed for release X1.
Thank you for your help.

Report fails to generate on Crystal Reports Server

Post Author: cmilkosk
CA Forum: General
Hello all!
I have a case open with BO on generating a report from a Crystal Reports Server (CRS). The report works fine when running in Crystal Reports on my PC, but after I send it to the Crystal Reports Server, it fails with a message like:"Failed to open the connection.
C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 11.5\Data\procSched\metrixdb.reportjobserver\~tmp9bc512965895e0.rpt"This error appears to be telling you that it is trying to connect to
the CRS's reportjobserver process and having a problem, but the service is up according to the Central Config Manager. I tried starting and stopping it, but it didn't make a difference. This happens for different reports sent to the server. One common thing that I've noticed is that the reports that connect to the CRS's local SQL Server 2005 database are the ones that are failing. So, my CRS resides on the same host as the SQL Server 2005 database (which also houses the CRS SQL DB). Interestingly, reports scheduled that connect to a remote SQL Server 2000 database work fine. It could be the simplest report that I am running off of the CRS/SQL Server 2005 host, and it still fails every time. Tech support so far hasn't been much of a help. They suggested that I upgrade my Crystal Reports software on my PC to R2, but that didn't fix the problem.Has anyone had any trouble like this before? If so, have you found out what the cause was?I'm beginning to wonder if it is related to SQL Server 2005 or potentially just that it is connecting to a local database.Note - my CRS's software version appears to be 11.5.3.438. I'm not sure if I am running CRS R1 or R2 (how can you tell?).Anyone have any ideas?Thanks,Chris
