Crystal Reports Viewer 11.5 fails in Vista

We are using the Crystal Reports Viewer (crviewer.dll) version 11.5.10.1263. It works fine in XP but fails with the following error in Vista:
A first chance exception of type 'System.AccessViolationException' occurred in sprdlgs2.dll
An unhandled exception of type 'System.AccessViolationException' occurred in sprdlgs2.dll
Additional information: Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt.
Sprdlgs2.dll is the DLL that contains the dialog in which the viewer resides. I know that crviewer.dll is registered correctly.
Our product is a C++ MFC multi-document application migrated from Visual Studio 6.0 to the .NET Framework 2.0 with the managed code flag (/clr) on.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Peter,
As Jason indicated the RDC has not been tested with Vista nor any version of .NET IDE. RDC is COM and Microsoft is moving away from COM and to their Framework which as you said you must also do as we must. Even though MS upgrades their OS's we can't follow for old technolgies, it just becomes too much coding and vertually becomes a new version of CR with the amount of work required. To move CR forward we try to release patches for the current versions that are 100% backward compatable with the current OS's. XI R2 with SP2 now supports Vista through a service patch.
The RDC has not been updated since Version 9 at that time Windows XP and 2000 were the only OS's available and they fully supported COM. It simply becomes to costly to make everything backward compatable. For developers like yourself you can appriciate this, do you still support Windows 3.1? At some point everyone has to cut off backward compatablity.
Moving forward because .NET 2008 is also new, even XI R2 has problems with it, this is due to MS updating their 1.1 Framework to 2.0 and 3.5. they changed things which we had specific dependencies on so now we have to also change, this all takes time to implement.
So this becomes a "best effort support" case since you are doing this on an unsupported platform. I did not see any results of your testing in debug mode on Vista? Install .NET 2008 on a Vista 32 PC and run your app in debug mode, if you use Vista 64 set your compiler to use x86 only. I believe your dll's are wrappers around the crviewer.dll and is likely either a permission issue with our COM(ActiveX) dll's or your dll's. Using regedt32.exe will give you the ability also to change permissions on the viewer and possibly your dll. It may be that Windows is not allowing your exe to access your wrapper as the error suggests in your original post.
Bottom line is, you should upgrade your app to use the .NET assemblies and stop using the RDC. There are lots of samples and fairly easy to migrate what your RDC app is doing to .NET code. Coding won't be one to one but the steps to execute a report and view are the same.
Thanks again
Don

If I change the user agent string in Firefox to that of Firefox 7.0.1 everything works as expected, this implies there is some logic in get_IsNetscape6Up() which is failing because the major browser version as reported by the user agent string is two digits instead of one.
We encountered a similar issue for our legacy pages containing Infragistics 2007 controls but were able to fix that by overriding the System.Web.Configuration.HttpCapabilitiesBase.BrowserCapabilitiesProvider and faking the browser version to 9.80. Crystal Report Viewer is apparently not using .Net's built in HttpBrowserCapabilities object, is there anything else I can adjust to stop the viewer failing?

hello Robert
Today must be my day. I already got a reply from PM (normally it takes a "bit" longer...). Anyhow, here is what he said:
With Firefoxu2019s release cycles, I donu2019t think weu2019ll be able to officially support the latest versions
of Firefox at every service release. We do our best to test the released versions of Firefox
that align with our releases. I donu2019t know the details but Iu2019ve heard there is a plan in place where
the support team(s) (?) will test the most recent releases of Firefox with whatu2019s currently
shipping by SAP and log bugs as necessary.
(umm, this is my - Ludek note here ) -> news to me re. support doing QA... find out something new every day. Anyhow, continuation of the message from PM:
The current plan for CR for VS2010, the SP3 release (expected in April) will support up to
Firefox 9. If there are reproducible bugs in Firefox 10 (or higher), then please enter a bug
and escalate and it will be investigated for the next available release.
I'll revisit this once SP3 is out there and do an escalation for Firefox 10 - ok?

Crystal Report Viewer and Windows Vista

Hi,
We are using RDC methodology for launching the crystal reports in the web using ASP.
The web server operating system is Windows 2003, Crystal Reports XI is installed in it. Report is not launching in only one client machine. For all the other client machines reports are launching perfectly. The problem is blank white activex control is displayed. I tried to register the crystal reports viewer (ActiveXViewer.cab available in the crystal installation folder) deliverables in the client machine but after installing the deliverables same problem persists.
When I click on the Crystal Report viewer Internet Explorer Exception occurs
The following add-on was running when this problem occurred:
Add-on Name: CRViewer.dll
Company Name: (Not verified)Business objects
Description: Crystal Report Viewer
Two buttons
Advanced... and Continue are shown but when we click on the button IE crashes

Could any one help me regarding this.

Hello,
First thing to do is upgrade to [CR XI R2 SP4 full build|https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100011802732008E/crxir2_sp4_full_build.exe]. Then get up to Service Pack 6 and you should not have problems with Vista.
CR XI R1 will not and has never been tested on that OS.
If you do not want to upgrade though use Process Monitor to watch for Access Denied errors. Also run IE in Compatibility mode.
Likely what is happening is your test PC doesn't have rights to install ActiveX controls.
Thank you
Don

Dynamic command execution fails in Crystal report viewer for parameters

We are using the Crystal Report Viewer for the .Net Application on the client side.The reports are designed using Crystal Report XI R2.
The issues that we are currently encountering is that, we are unable to load the combo-boxes in the pop-up for the parameters.
All the reports have multiple commands and the variables are of 'dynamic' type.
When the dialog box for requesting the pop-up comes up, It comes up empty even though they are linked to the respective commands.
Also,For reports having multiple parameters we are unable to give a single dialog box to get in all the parameters.It appears as a series of prompts.
Both,these issues are not encountered when the reports are launched via the Crystal reports developer tool.

Hello Varun,
I recommend to post this questionin the [dedicated NET forum|SAP Crystal Reports, version for Visual Studio;.
This forum is monitored by qualified technicians and you will get a faster response there.
Thank you for your understanding,

Did you end up cross posting this anywhere else? I just started running into the problem with XI r1 trying to view a report I modified in r2. The only solution I seem to have found involves upgrading all of our customers to r2, which is not a very pleasant option. I'd be interested in learning if anyone has come up with a better solution.

Error in Preview and Print in Crystal Report Viewer 2.0.0.7 in Workstation

Hi Guys,
I am encountering a problem when clicking preview and print in Crystal Report Viewer 2.0.0.7. It returns an error
Unhandled exception has occurred in your application. If you click Continue the application will ignore and attempt to continue. If you click quit, the application will close immediately. Load report failed.
I already install the runtime crruntime_120_mlb, . net framework 3.5 sp1 and the add-on itself. The viewer is working properly in SAP Server. My version of SAP is SBO 2007 A SP00 PL10.

Problem showing the crystal report viewer in form after added the component on it

Greetings
I have a problem running a program. I created a form which I added the component Crystal Report Viewer perfecty but during program execution when I call that form my VS 2012 Ultimate show the following error:
Translated:
Failed to create the form. See Exception.InnerException for details. Error: An exception occurred in the type initializer for 'CrystalDecisions.Shared.SharedUtils'.
Note: If I remove the component from the form. the applications runs fine when calling the form without the component CrystalReportViewer
It is something related to my VS? o just that the actual version 13.0.9 is not yet compatible?

Report.Show?
How about you try:
CrystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = <path to your report>
Or:
Dim crReportDocument As New CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument
crReportDocument.Load(<path to your report>)
CrystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = crReportDocument
Or, if the report is added to the project:
crReportDocument = New test
CrystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = crReportDocument

Crystal Reports Viewer Control - Visual Studio 2008 WEB Application

My question is this: Has ANYONE on this planet been able to get the ASP .NET CR Viewer control to actually work?
Why does this editor NOT recognize End-of-line or CR characters or any whitespace??
I have developed a Crystal Reports "Viewer" web application in VS2008 using C#.
It's a simple app, in that it's a single page with a treeview control (containing the grouped names of the reports to which the user has access) and the CR Viewer control.
The report files live on a network share, and permissions to them is controlled via a SQL Server database, which, for each report, stores the UserID and Logion for the oracle database, as well as any required parameter values.
The reports themselves are all hititng an Oracle 10g database.
I managed to do this in a Windows desktop applcation using Visual Studio 2005 and VB .net, but now, upon trying to make this a web application in VS2008, I have completely failed. The application works when run locally, but when deployed to the web server, I experience database login prompts when I should not, (the dreaded "Report requires further information" message) even thought the setdatabaselogin has already been set. I have tried saving the reportdocument in viewstate and re-assigning the viewer Datasource property to it, that also fails. However, it only does it on some reports, and not others. (admittedly, the reports may have been created using different CR versions)
The viewer also displays data it should not be displaying when I attempt to scroll, when I do manage to get a report to run.
I am setting parameters dynamically at run time, whose values are stored in the SQL database.
Code Sample:
protected void ShowReport(int ReportID)
 SQLDataPortal2005.Common sql = new SQLDataPortal2005.Common();
 Hashtable outParms = new Hashtable();
 string sAccess;
 IDataReader dr;
 CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument rptDocument = new CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument();
 System.Security.Principal.WindowsPrincipal p = System.Threading.Thread.CurrentPrincipal as System.Security.Principal.WindowsPrincipal;
 sAccess = p.Identity.Name;
 int j = 0;
 int i = -1;
 if (!IsAdmin())
 sql.ExecNonQuery("CrystalReports", outParms, "proc_CRM_Check_Permissions", sAccess, Convert.ToInt32(TreeView1.SelectedNode.Value));
 if (outParms["@Allow"].ToString() != "True")
 Response.Redirect("ErrorPage.aspx"); // redirect to error page
 string sPath = System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["WareHouse"].ToString();
 sPath = sPath + TreeView1.SelectedNode.Text.Trim() + ".rpt";
 rptDocument.Load(sPath);
 dr = sql.GetDataReader("CrystalReports", "proc_CRM_Get_Report", Convert.ToInt32(TreeView1.SelectedNode.Value));
 while (dr.Read() == true)
 j += 1;
 if (j < 2)
 rptDocument.SetDatabaseLogon(dr["DB_Login"].ToString(), dr["DB_Pwd"].ToString(), "PLAW", "LAWDB", true);
 pList = dr["ParmList"].ToString().Split(',');
 dr.Close();
 dr.Dispose();
 if (pList.Length > 0 && pList[0].ToString().Trim() != "")

 CRV1.ShowFirstPage();
Is there a better/different way of accomplishing this very simply process? All I need this application to do is to view a report, while setting it's parmeters (if required) dynamically at run time. I don't EVER want the user to be prompted for DB LOGIN INFO.

To answer you question; Yes, I suspect that most of the users in this community have managed to successfully create web apps. And this is the tiniest of sampling of the developers out there...
A few suggestions;
1) Keep the posts to under 1200 characters. Otherwise, the formatting is lost which makes it difficult to read.
2) Try out a few sample apps from here:
https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/BOBJ/CrystalReportsfor.NETSDK+Samples
Suggest; csharp_web_simplelogonengine.zip, csharp_web_simplelogonviewer.zip and csharp_web_subreport_logon.zip.
3) Start simple; one table, one field, no subreports. Hard code the database logon parameters. Convince your self that this does work. Increase the complexity - add fields, tables, subreports. Do not mix connection methods (e.g.; if ODBC for main, than ODBC for sub is a good idea, though not a requirement).
4) See the article [Troubleshooting Guide to Database Connectivity Issues with Crystal Reports in Visual Studio .NET Applications|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/index?rid=/library/uuid/b0225775-88c4-2c10-bd80-8298769293de].
5) See [this|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/d05b3bb7-0f28-2c10-4ea3-84dbdc4e414e?quicklink=index&overridelayout=true] article.

Print Button Not Working if i not inital the Crystal Report Viewer

hiii every body here
i have problem on my web application with framework (4.0)
i use crystal report viewer (crystal report 13) and i installed the engine of crystal report and use dataset as datasource to my report and my report work fine but ....
my problem is :
i cannot export or print my crystal report 13 if i put my code on sub like that :
protected void btn_print_Click ( object sender , EventArgs e )
            SP_testTableAdapter adpter = new SP_testTableAdapter();
            adpter.Fill(ds.SP_test);
            Reports.Learning.CrystalReports.CR_testreport my_report = new Reports.Learning.CrystalReports.CR_testreport();
            my_report.SetDataSource(ds);
            CrystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = my_report;
            CrystalReportViewer1.DataBind();
when i use this i cannot print or export it say to me login to database fail message although i use dataset not direct database connection that mean it not need to give the report source every use of it the connection of my server details like username , password
but if i put this code to my page load the report run and showing and print correctly , i need to can use print,export and every button on reportviewer toolbar
without put the code that display report on page_load i need to put code on button event only and when i click the button it show the report and can print and export , and not need to use sesssion
need help plz ................

An assumption here is that this is a web app. That being the case, you need to worry about post backs when you print or export. E.g.; almost any action the viewer will cause a post back and thus what ever data you sent to the report is now forgotten. Place the report in session and this will eliminate the issue. Search for KBA 1985571. I document the full code needed there.

Error With Export/Print from Crystal Report Viewer

Hello there,
I've searched through the web and SAP discussion boards with not much luck with this issue.
After working through this for some days now I've decided to look here for help.
Environment:
I have created a web Crystal Report viewer application(Developed with SBOP BI Platform 4.0 SP06 .NET SDK Runtime) that communicates with a managed Cyrstal Server 2011 SP4 (Product 14.0)
I am able to connect and authenticate with the server, retrieve a token for communication and display reports in the Crystal report Viewer successfully.
Problem:
When I attempt to export, I receive the prompt to select format and pages.
When I click export after selections most times I receive an error with the text
Unable to cast COM object of type 'System.__ComObject' to interface type 'CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.DataDefModel.PropertyBag'. This operation failed because the QueryInterface call on the COM component for the interface with IID '{74EEBC42-6C5D-11D3-9172-00902741EE7C}' failed due to the following error: No such interface supported (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80004002 (E_NOINTERFACE)).
Other times the page simply refreshes on export.
When I click to print, no print dialog is displayed the page always refreshes and no error is displayed.
No Print or Export document is ever created.
As many print/export issues seems to be related, I'm guessing this two issues are as well.
Notes:
I am utilizing the ReportClientDocument model
I am storing this in session to use as the crystal report viewer report source on postbacks
I am assigning a subset of export formats to the crystal report viewer
I am setting particular parameters as well on the report source
At this point I would appreciate every assistance I may receive on this issue
Thanks in advance,
Below is the pertinent code

Thanks Don for your response,
I'm new to the SCN spaces and my content has been moved a couple of times already.
In response to your questions
The runtime is installed on the web application server, if by that you mean the machine hosting the created .NET SDK application.
My question was whether it was also required on the Crystal Server 2011 (I.E. the main enterprise server with CMS and Report management and I guess RAS and all that). I figured this would remain untouched and queries would simply be made against it to retrieve/view reports e.t.c
If install of the SDK on Crystal Server 2011 is indeed required should I expect any interruption to any of the core services after a restart. I.E. I'm hoping that none of the SDK objects would interfere with the existing server objects (in SAP Business Objects)Reason I ask is I note that much of the SDK install directories are similar to the existing Crystal Enterprise Server 2011 (Product 14.0.0)
Is this temp folder to be manually created/configured or is it created by the application automatically to perform tasks. Or are you referring to the default C:\Windows\Temp directory and so saying that the application would try to use this for print and export tasks?Once I'm sure which I'd give the app pool user permission
Printing is to be client side but I figured by default (with the Crystal Report Viewer) it would simply pool and print from the user's printer. This is how it works with the previously used URL reporting approach (viewrpt.cwr). Therefore a user can print the document from wherever they are with their own printer.We don't intend on printing from the server machine, but are you suggesting that a printer must be installed on server (which one web or enterprise server) for any client side printing to work.
App pool is running in 32 bit mode
Initially didn't get anything useful from fiddler but I'd try and look closer on your suggestion.
It's also possible that some of my questions are a misunderstanding of APP vs RAS vs WEB, so please feel free to clarify. Currently I see the Web server as simply the created .NET SDK Application and RAS (Crystal Server 2011 e.t.c) as the existing fully established Application server which I simply pool for information.
Thank you for your patience and advice,

Running a crystal reports viewer from forms

Greetings,
I am using Oracle Forms 10g!!
I have a form that is used to invoke a crystal report viewer using the HOST command. The viewer has the ability to pass in a id and password. When I try to run it I get:
Logon failed.
Details: IM003:Specified driver could not be loaded due to system error 998 (Oracle in Oracle_HOME)
The report runs fine otherwise.
Regards,
Bill Chadbourne

I have the following in my WHEN-BUTTON-PRESSED trigger:
CLIENT_HOST('cmd /c "C:\Program Files\Jeff-Net Report Runner Viewer\JNRRE.EXE" jnreport=H:\OC\Computer Services\Oracle Database\DFACrystalReports\EPA_PTS\COST_RECOVER.RPT jnid=rs_ray jnpassword=rs_ray') ;
When I click the button I receive:
Logon failed.
Details: IM003:Specified driver could not be loaded due to system error 998 (Oracle in Oracle_HOME)
If I change the trigger text to:
CLIENT_HOST(' cmd /c "C:\Program Files\Jeff-Net Report Runner Viewer\JNRRE.EXE jnreport=H:\OC\Computer Services\Oracle Database\DFACrystalReports\EPA_PTS\COST_RECOVER.RPT jnid=rs_ray jnpassword=rs_ray" ') ;
(From the CMD window) 'C:\Program' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
I would rather not use a .bat file, if possible.

Bill Chadbourne

Cannot Send Email from Crystal Reports Viewer; MAPI:Overflow

I am trying to send a report via email with crystal reports, but i get the following error message:
"The following unexpected error occured while trying to send the report to MAPI: Overflow."
I am using Outlook 2010, Win 7 x64 bit.
Does anyone have any ideas or thoughts?

Yes, it is a 3rd party app that opens Crystal Reports Viewer. Attached are the screen shots I get when try to send the report as an email.

How to set printersettings for the crystal report viewer in SAP BI dynamically

Hello
I have set the URL method for my crystal report and with parameter passing as shown below, it was displaying the crystal report viewer by connecting to the SAP BI 4.0 server with this method.
http://cr:port/businessobjects/enterprise115/desktoplaunch/opendoc/openDocument.jsp?sDocName=CRLabelParam&sType=rpt&lsSnPrinted=0&lsSsTestProjectNr=1
This URL will be called from Web application by different users, i would like to set the printer settings differently for different users for this crystal report viewer how shall i need to set the printer options?
shall i need to set the printer settings programatically for each user. Please advise me how do i need to proceed.
Thanks & Regards,
Rajeswari.

There are no BI / CR APIs that would do this for you. The way I see it, you'll have to have your own print button and populate it with the correct printer information for each user as they request the report. Of course, alternatively, use the viewer printer button and get the users to choose the correct printer.

Crystal Report Viewer Collapse Unneeded Lines

I have a CR open sales order report grouped by sales order number. Crystal report viewer outlines Sales Order #, customer name and doc total in the master line. Underneath that, it shows multi line items contain in that SO.
I am wondering, is there a way I can collapse the multi line items and only shows the master line item? We need this sometimes to present to management just to show the big picture.
Is it we can add a drill-down event to the crystal report viewer control? Not sure how to accomplish that. Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi,
If the detail information is in the Detail section, you can set the Detail Section to Hide. This will only show the Sales Order information and have the ability to drill down to the Details when you need them.
Good luck,
Brian
