Crystal Reports XI connection problems - after updating to SQL Server 2008

Hello!
We have some ASP.NET 2.0 Applications that call some CR XI report files with parameters to generate PDF Files. After upgrading from SQL Server 2005 to 2008 the apps hang when trying to generate the PDFs. Some research with Fiddler showed that ever time a 401 Error is raised. Calling the reports directly from CR Designer with the same connection values and Parameter shows the appropriate data that means the log-in data iare functioning.
I already tried switching the data source driver from OLE DB to SQL Native - no effect!
Can it be that CR XI does not work with SQL Server 2008? Or is there an update for CR XI and SQL Server 2008?
Because we are in a hurry I hope somebody can solve my problem(s) ...?!
Thanks in advance,
Frank

Hi Frank,
No CR XI is not supported nor is any version completely at this time. What we've found issues in so far are the Time(7) time is returned as a string value and Stored Procedure Data/time parameter SQL creation. The Time(7) field is an OLE DB driver issue with Microsoft but the Date/time SP issue is our issue and it's currently tracked and escalated. It will be fixed for CR 2008 with SP3 I believe. And I've asked that the same fix be rolled back to CR XI R2 but waiting on the reply from R&D if it can be done.
What you need to do is download the trial version of CR XI R2 ( Release 2 ) and then use your XI Keycode to install it and it will work. Then update to the latest SP 5 Service Pack. XI is past it's end of life support which means there will be no updates or bug fixes any more.
Next, MS SQL Server 2008 does not work with the MDAC version of the Native drivers, you must install the MS SQL Server Client. You'll see the driver name is "MS SQL Server Native client 10". This is the one you need to use.
Another work around is to use ODBC, it seems to resolve all issues, but the client must be installed.
Thank you
Don

Which version of crystal reports can link to Windev 14 and SQL server 2008 applications

I am developing an application with windev 14 and sql server 2008, i would like to know which version of crystal report can i use?

Hi GS,
Move to .NET SDK forum.
I don't know how CR for Visual Studio will integrate into WinDev but to get the installer for VS 2010/2012/2013 go to this page:
SAP Crystal Reports, developer version for Microsoft Visual Studio: Updates & Runtime Downloads
It's the runtime for CR 2011 or 2013 now.
As for SQL 2008 you need to install the Client tools and when creating reports use the SQLNCLI10.dll as the client DB driver for ODBC or OLE DB.

Security Update for SQL Server 2008 R2 Service Pack 2 (KB2977320)

So i have been trying to install this update on one of our servers since it is showing up on our MBSA scans but it has been failing on one of our machines with the error code: 0x80070643
I downloaded the update and tired to install it manually. The installer returned: There are no SQL Server instances or shared features that can be updated on this computer. If that was true then why is SCCM still pushing the update to the machine and why
is the MBSA showing that it needs the update? Any advice would be helpful. Thanks!

Hi David,
Based on my understanding, the error code: 0x80070643 was thrown out when you install KB2977320 with MBSA. And installation also failed when you download and install update manually.
Regarding the error code: 0x80070643, it can be caused if the MSI software update registration has become corrupted, or if the .NET Framework installation on the computer has become corrupted. To fix this issue, we can follow these methods:
Fix MSI software update registration corruption issues
Repair the .Net Framework
Uninstall and reinstall the .Net Framework
For more information, please refer to this link:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/976982.
Besides, the security update is released for SQL Server 2008 R2 Service Pack 2, please check the version of SQL Server you are using. About how to check the SQL Server version, please refer to this article: How to tell what SQL Server version you are running
(http://www.mssqltips.com/sqlservertip/1140/how-to-tell-what-sql-server-version-you-are-running/). Then please download the Security Update for SQL
Server 2008 R2 Service Pack 2 from this link (http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=43957), and retry install it manually.

Crystal Report XI Release 2 - Deployment Bug on SQL Server

Post Author: PeterLiebich
CA Forum: General
H
We have a VS 2005 Crystal web app deployed onto a server - not using the RAS but using the Crsytal Report Viewer.
Nearly Everything is working however we have one slight bug which is driving me mad.
All of our reports are constructed against a development SQL Server, and then the Application resets the report location at run time to the Appropriate production server.
Everything works fine when I run the appliction via VS 2005 on my XP machine, the reports repoint successfully etc.
When I build the App and deploy it to a server, the CrystalReportViewer fails with a "Database logon failed" if (and only if) the name of the database that the report was developent against is the same as the name as the database is being repointed to (on a different server). If the developement and production databases have different names then the resetting of the location works fine.
As I said the repointing works fine when I run the App on my development machine which has Crystal Reports XI Release 2 installed.
On the Server I have installED the Crystal dlls via CrystalReports11_5_NET_2005.msi dated 2007/03/01.
I have also tried to deploy dlls via a GAC using CrystalReports11_5_NET_2005.msm dated 2006/02/24.
All to no avail
Here is the code I use to repoint the report
Dim crConnectionInfo As New CrystalDecisions.Shared.ConnectionInfo
crConnectionInfo.IntegratedSecurity = True
crConnectionInfo.ServerName = v_ServerName
crConnectionInfo.DatabaseName = v_DatabaseName
'loop through all the tables and pass in the connection info
Dim crTableLogOnInfo As CrystalDecisions.Shared.TableLogOnInfo
For Each crTable As CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.Table In Me.m_ReportDocument.Database.Tables
crTableLogOnInfo = crTable.LogOnInfo
crTableLogOnInfo.ConnectionInfo = crConnectionInfo
crTable.ApplyLogOnInfo(crTableLogOnInfo)
Next
'set the crSections object to the current report's sections
'loop through all the sections to find all the report objects
Dim crSubreportObject As CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.SubreportObject
Dim crSubreportDocument As CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument
For Each crSection As CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.Section In Me.m_ReportDocument.ReportDefinition.Sections
'loop through all the report objects to find all the subreports
For Each crReportObject As CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportObject In crSection.ReportObjects
    If crReportObject.Kind = CrystalDecisions.Shared.ReportObjectKind.SubreportObject Then
    ' you will need to typecast the reportobject to a subreport object once you find it
     crSubreportObject = CType(crReportObject, CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.SubreportObject)
     'open the subreport object
     crSubreportDocument = crSubreportObject.OpenSubreport(crSubreportObject.SubreportName)
    'loop through all the tables in the subreport and
    'apply the connection set up previously to the subreports
    For Each crTable As CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.Table In crSubreportDocument.Database.Tables
      crTableLogOnInfo = crTable.LogOnInfo
      crTableLogOnInfo.ConnectionInfo = crConnectionInfo
      crTable.ApplyLogOnInfo(crTableLogOnInfo)
    Next
    End If
Next

Don't know if you ever found a solution, but here is how I got it to work.
1) If it was created pointing to a localhost database, it may be using named pipes to connect, where as production / test uses TCP/IP. Our CR9 system automatically switched from Named Pipes to TCP/IP but CR11 does not. Repointing the report to a non local version of the database fixed one problem of runtime switching. (This includes switching back to localhost).
2) When you change the server name, CR11 does not update the table object, but clones it and applies the update to the clone. I needed to update the location apply the update and then apply the login change (I am not using integrated security, so this may not apply to you.). See the code below. I call setServerInfo and then setLogonInfo. Sub setLogonInfo(ByRef myReport As ReportDocument)
        Dim logonInfo As New TableLogOnInfo
        Dim table As CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.Table
        For Each table In myReport.Database.Tables
            logonInfo = table.LogOnInfo
            logonInfo.ConnectionInfo.UserID = loginName
            logonInfo.ConnectionInfo.Password = loginPassword
            table.ApplyLogOnInfo(logonInfo)
        Next table
    End Sub
    Sub setServerInfo(ByRef myReport As ReportDocument)
        Dim logonInfo As New TableLogOnInfo
        Dim table As CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.Table
        For Each table In myReport.Database.Tables
            logonInfo = table.LogOnInfo
            Select Case AppSettings("DataEnvironment")
                 Case "PRODUCTION"
                      logonInfo.ConnectionInfo.ServerName = "productionServer.local"
                 Case "TEST"
                      logonInfo.ConnectionInfo.ServerName = "testServer.local"
                 Case "LOCAL"
                      logonInfo.ConnectionInfo.ServerName = "localhost"
             End Select
             table.ApplyLogOnInfo(logonInfo)
        Next table
    End Sub

Reports quit working after upgrade to SQL Server 2008

Folks,
I'm running Visual Studio 2008 (sp1) and recently upgraded to SQL Server 2008. Reports worked fine until after upgrade. Now I get the "Login Failed" error message.
Here is code snippets:
        CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument oReport = new   CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument();
        TableLogOnInfo LonOnInfo = new TableLogOnInfo();

        TableLogOnInfo crtableLogoninfo = new TableLogOnInfo();
        private Tables crTables;
        private Table crTable;
        ConnectionInfo crConnectionInfo = new ConnectionInfo();
            crConnectionInfo.IntegratedSecurity = true;
            crConnectionInfo.ServerName = Properties.Settings.Default.InstanceName + "

            crConnectionInfo.DatabaseName = "DATABASE";
            crTables = oReport.Database.Tables;

            oReport.RecordSelectionFormula = xFormula;
            crystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = oReport;
Has anyone had this problem? Any help would be appreciated.

CR 2008 does not support MS SQL 2008 yet, meaning we have not had time to test it completely and add it to our supported platforms.txt file.
One thing I noticed is you are using trusted authenication:
crConnectionInfo.IntegratedSecurity = true;
Make sure you give access to all users, MS changed the security properties a lot since SQL 2005 and you can't simply log into any database now. If you have a DBA check with that person on how to configure NT Authentication or the Help file. You can also do a quick test and simply use MS SQL Server authentication to confirm if it's a user permission issue.
Try creating a report that doesn't use Integrated Security, check the box off on your data logon prompt in the Designer.

ODBC Error connecting to a stored procedure SQL Server 2008 - Crystal 8.5

I am running a local copy of SQL server 2008 and get an ODBC error when connecting to any stored procedure with or without parameter. The database are running in SQL Server 2000 compatibility mode on the local server.
Do not get the error when connecting to one or more databse tables or when connecting to a stored procedure on a remote database.
The error reported is "ODBC error:[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server driver] Syntax error or access violation"
I am running Vista OS.
Any help would be appreciated..

Hello,
Interesting combination. All but CR 8.5 is supported on that OS.
When you created your DSN did you using the 2008 Client or MDAC?
I suggest you go back to supported platforms for CR 8.5
If not then start debugging Vista permissions to start with...
good luck

HSODBC connectivity between ORACLE 10g and SQL Server 2008 R2

ERROR at line 1:

I'm getting the above error for DB links between Oracle 10.2 and SQL Server 2008 R2. But the same, when configured for MS SQL server 2000 works fine without any issues.
Please advise me to rectify the error. We've been working for the last couple of weeks.
Regards,
Sunil

Sunil,
You don't need an Oracle ODBC driver.
The way it works is that in the gateway init<sid>.ora file, in your case initTelemetryDB1.ora, the parameter HS_FDS_CONNECT_INFO points to a system DSN. This DSN should then be configured to use an ODBC driver to connect to the non-Oracle database. So, in your setup when you want to access the SQL*Server 2008 database then the DSN should use an ODBC driver that can connect to a SQL*Server 2008 database. If you still use the initTelemetryDB1.ora file for the connection then the TelemetryDB1 DSN should be configured to access the SQL*Server 2008 database.
However, there are a couple of problems with your actual setup -
- the configuration you have - 10.2 RDBMS on a Sun machine and HSODBC on Windows - is not supported. HSODBC should only be used from a RDBMS that is in the same ORACLE_HOME as HSODBC.
- 10.2 HSODBC is now desupported and has been replaced by the 11g Database Gateway for ODBC (DG4ODBC) and the configuration you want is supported. That is because unlike HSODBC the DG4ODBC gateway can be installed standalone with a RDBMS being installed.
I recommend that you download and install 11.20.2 DG4ODBC on your Windows machine in a new Oracle_home and access that from the 10.2 RDBMS on Sun - which is a supported configuration. But to do this, you will need to apply either the 10.2.0.4 or 10.2.0.5 patchset to your RDBMS.
There is more information in the following note available on My Oracle Support (MOS) -
Note.1083703.1 Master Note for Oracle Gateway Products
The 11.2.0.2 DG4ODBC can be downloaded from MOS as patch and for the gateways on Windows 32-bit you just need to download -
p10098816_112020_platform_4of6.zip
However, to check the HSODBC ou need to confirm that the DSN used by HSODBC points to a System DSN configured to access SQL*Server 2008.
Have a look at -
Note 109730.1 How to setup generic connectivity (HSODBC) for Windows NT
But remember this is not a supported version or configuration and you should be using Dg4ODBC.

Mike

WSUS service pack updates for SQL Server 2008 R2

Hello, how do we configure WSUS for SQL Server Service Packs? One problem we have is that we do not see SQL server 2008 R2 SP2 available as a download from our WSUS server and this is when SQL SP1 is installed. Now I can apply these service packs manually
but when we have 100's of virtual machines with different versions and editions of SQL this task can be quite daunting. Suggestions please?
RFDZ12

from memory, SQL service packs and CUs are not released via WSUS.
This article is a good reference for (products other than Windows) for what has been released via WSUS:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/windowsserver/bb456965
The equivalent article for Windows releases, is
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/894199
Or, you can check the MU catalog (which doesn't necessarily mean the update is available via WSUS, but if the update you seek in is the MU catalog, you can usually import it into your WSUS)
http://catalog.update.microsoft.com/
some updates for products are not able to be released via WSUS, for various reasons, and so in those cases, you need a different deployment solution.

Officially, you got to use Hyperion drivers.
For BIPublisher 10.1.3.4 and ++ to connect to Ms sql server,
use the following
This works well and better.
Driver class = hyperion.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver
Connection String = jdbc:hyperion:sqlserver://SERVERNAME:PORT;DatabaseName=DBNAME;
http://winrichman.blogspot.com/2009/04/hyperion-driver-to-connect-to-ms-sql.html
In older versions.
you can also copy the drivers to the lib folder or applib folder and try what you were doing.

Hi,
Have a look at these Oracle notes for the full information on the gateways -
Master Note for Oracle Gateway Products (Doc ID 1083703.1)
Functional Differences Between DG4ODBC and Specific Database Gateways (Doc ID 252364.1)
Gateway and Generic Connectivity Licensing Considerations (Doc ID 232482.1)

How to Configure DG4ODBC on 64bit Unix OS (Linux, Solaris, AIX, HP-UX Itanium) to Connect to Non-Oracle Databases Post Install (Doc ID 561033.1)
The Database Gateway for SQL*Server (DG4MSQL) needs a separate license but the Database Gateway for ODBC (DG4ODBC) is included in your RDBMS license. You only need to provide the third party ODBC driver needed by DG4ODBC.

Apply monthly Windows 2008 r2 updates within SQL Server 2008 cluster

Hello is applying Windows updates within 2 node SQL Server 2008 cluster (active-passive) as simple as download/install the windows update on the passive node, then failover, then apply on other node, and then fail back over ?...or are there other needed/recommended
steps ? Thanks in advance.

Thanks for your reply Shanky_621 much appreciated.
In your link provided http://support.microsoft.com/kb/174799 it looks like the steps order is slightly different from this link of
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc731291.aspx which mentions...
"...where the recommended sequence is to move all services and applications off of the node, pause the node, then apply software updates to the node."
...does it matter which is done first ('Pause' or 'move Services/Application') or can I simply go to the Passive node (say 'B' where there are no Services or Applications currently on it), 'Pause' it, apply the Windows updates, then 'Resume' it, &
reboot ?

Connection problems after updating to iOS 5

Hello everyone,
I updated my iPhone 4 (bought it in June '10) to iOS5 a week ago like everyone else. Ever since then, I've been experiencing problems with pretty much anything that requires a data connection. It won't send messages, log in to Facebook or other communities or find any websites. I have to switch the phone off and back on and then it'll work for a while. Usually, the problem starts after I haven't the phone for 15 minutes or more. It just happened and when I checked the connections, I had full connection (five bars + 3G) to my phone provider and full connection to my wifi as well. Still, iMessage said my messages couldn't be sent, it didn't download new emails and Whatsapp Messenger wouldn't even connect. So far, I haven't experienced any problems with the phone connection, can make calls and haven't been told I couldn't be reached, so I think it's safe to assume the phone connection isn't part of the problem.
There weren't any problems while updating the phone and I haven't dropped it or anything since then. The only thing I noticed was that when setting it to auto-sync via iCloud, it slowed down my internet, so I switched that feature back off. Do you think this has caused the problem? Any suggestions to what I should do?

How long does the "waiting" message stay there? Does it eventually go away and the app loads or does it stay that way permanently?
The app store is temporarily being overwhelmed by purchasers of the new iPad trying to get apps onto their devices. This might be a reason for a long wait. But eventually you should be able to get the app if the extra use is causing the problem.
Did you try a reboot of your iPad? Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the iPad restart. See if that fixes your problem.
You might also have something else waiting to download that is causing the problem. Something like a podcast. Check all apps that download regularly to see if this is the case and delete those or terminate their download.
Have you deleted those apps that are waiting? Do that and then retry them on at a time.
Hope this helps.

Crystal Report Database connection problem in CMC

Dear All,
We are using Business Objects XI 3.1, Crystal Report 2008 SP1 for report development. Crystal reports are generated using SAP BW Query.
Where in, once you have published Crystal report to Enterprise server and open the same using Infoview it gives error saying "database logon failed, check user name password"
Did checked the database config tab in CMC there was no password and "Prompt user name password" option was enabled as well. when we type the password at the password text box, it is not accepting the same to store at the text box insted keep enpty always.
Please let know what is the issue and guide me to over come the same.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Is the account that runs the services of BOE on your OS able to ping the DB server. It may also lie in the fact that you have to do the correct setup steps for the SAP Integration Kit. Have you installed and configured this between your BW and BOE environment?
