Crystal XI R2 SP5 install issue

I am running Crystal Reports XI R2 SP2 on Windows XP Pro SP3. I download and run the SP5 exe. The install program displays a message to provide the location of the CrystalReports.msi file. I browse and point to the orginal install CD to this file. A message comes back that it is not a valid installation package. I do a search and find this file under C;
Document and Settings\Username\local settings\temp\win3. I still get the same message invalid instillation package. So how do I install SP5?

Crystal Reports 2011 Demo Install Error

Downloaded the trial of Crystal Reports 2011 today (installer says it is SP2) and it will not install. Searched the forums and the 'net and not finding anything that appears to be applicable to my situation, so here goes:
Windows 7 64-bit Pro SP 1, all updates
Crystal Reports 8.5 and 9.2 installed
Visual Studio 2010 Pro with all updates
RAD Studio XE2 with latest updates
Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2010
I run the setup as an admin, Windows 7 compatibility checked, etc. as suggested in other posts.
I am getting a Visual C++ runtime library error "This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way."
I get this initially when the installer says "Installing Deployment Unit:" and the unit listed is:
tp.microsoft.vcredist-7.1-core-32,14.0.0.760
I have a screenshot, but the above gives relevant information. If I click OK on the error, I will continuously get it for all other files and then get the pleasure of getting it again when I cancel the installation. We have been considering moving to SSRS, but wanted to give the 2011 Crystal a shot since we have several hundred reports developed in it.
Thanks in advance for any help and apologies if I missed something in my searching. Any ideas??

Hello,
First thing is CR 8.5 is not side by side compatible, so uninstall it. I don't see this causing install issues but just an FYI...
I assume you downloaded it from the Trial version Page then or was it in Service Market Place?
SP 2 is both Full and Incremental so I'll start the download and test also. It may be they linked to the wrong file.
How big was the file you downloaded?
Also, have a look at this post: SAP Crystal Reports 2011: Error INS00140 and other install errors , there may be something going on with one of those MS Kbases causing the issue, or could be something new.
I checked with the PM for Cr 2011 and there should be both incremental and a full build available, possibly they did link it to the wrong one...
Thanks again
Don
Oh and check that you have .NET 2.0 to 4.0 Framework installed, CR requires is.

SP2010 Foundation Post Install issues on development workstation - Database and Services

Just recently installed SP2010 Foundation for a development workstation. Platform isWin7 X64 pro, SQL 2008 (Developer edition)
(1) Looks like search has some configuration issues. This is in the Windows event log
The Execute method of job definition Microsoft.SharePoint.Search.Administration.SPSearchJobDefinition (ID 38eefca2-d092-47f4-a833-23f8280c5f63) threw an exception. More information is included below.
The device is not ready.
(2) In Central Admin > Servers in Farm
Status - "Upgrade Available",
(3) In Central Admin > Manage Database Upgrade Status
Sveral of the Datbase(s) mention that upgrade is recommended, but one in particular mentions that the DB is too old?
WSS_Search_GHHTY
SPSearchDatabase
Database is too old and upgrade is required
Huh?
(4) Looking at my local SQL 2008 instance that SP2010 created, I see several DB's with "Config" in the name along with a guid on the end of the name. Is the result of re-running the configuration wizard several times while
I was correcting install issues?

here is question, i am assuming its fresh install not upgrade...
when you run the config wizard( you mentioned many times), which option you select from 2nd try to on ward....cannot disconnect this server from farm?
are you using any script to install ?
I would say run the config wizard without disconnecting and this server will host CA option.
from the central admin > manager server in farm...on top you will see farm version and config database name. note it
from the Manage database Upgrade status page note all the db names
now match it on sql and keep those and all other should gone now as a clean process.
Please remember to mark your question as answered &Vote helpful,if this solves/helps your problem. ****************************************************************************************** Thanks -WS MCITP(SharePoint 2010, 2013) Blog: http://wscheema.com/blog

Mac OSX: Flash CS3 Font Install Issues

Hi,
I have a Mac Powerbook G4 with OS X installed and Adobe CS3.
I've installed a font. The font works in Photoshop and Illustrator
but not in Flash CS3. Why? I've put the font in the Library/Fonts
folder and the User/Fonts folder and it still doesn't show up in
Flash. Apparently this is a problem for a number of people see
another forum here:
MAC
OSX: Flash CS3 Font Install Issues Forum
Please let me know what to do to fix this. I need to be able
to work with the font in all three applications Flash, Photoshop
and Illustrator.

Hi davidd61713525,
Sorry for not getting back to you sooner.
Unfortunately, it looks like something is wrong with the file system and the installer can't see the root drive to install to. A Google search returns numerous results affecting various products and the recurring theme is that something is wrong with the disk. There are many recommendations from various sources, but nothing definitive.
Here's a similar thread over on the Apple forums:
Broken Installer Permissions | Apple Support Communities
And a similar older one:
http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1203509
I would try the following options:
Try using the PKG installer. This is used Mac SysAdmins to install Flash Player within their organization and uses a slightly different installer path, which may or may not work.
Some people have had success with disk and permissions repair some have not. You can try running a disk and permissions repair. After the disk and permissions repair is complete, reboot the system and try to install again using either the online installer (get.adobe.com/flashplayer) or the offline installer, posted at the bottom of the Installation problems | Flash Player | Mac page in the ‘Still having problems’ section.
If these options do not work, I'd reach out to Apple support to see if they have a suggestion. If you do find a resolution to this, please let me know. I'll be happy to share it with people that encounter the problem in the future.

Re-Installing Issue

Hi,
I have a G5 I had to re install and erase my HD cause I had issues, now that i am rebuilding the system it won't let me install FCS, I get to the DVDP disc and it says Installation failed.... I tried it a few time and I get the same error. Can anyone shed some light on this please?
thanks

Welcome to the forum!
Made sure the disks are clean? I'd call Apple on an install issue if it's new or if you suspect a damaged disk and you're the registered user.
Which OS are your running? QuickTime Version?

Webutil install issue

Hello,
I have a strange WebUtil install issue on 10gIAS 10.1.2.0.2. I downloaded the 1.0.6 WU version and put it into a webutil directory under forms (which the pre-configuration of AS seem to assume) and when I call the forms servlet with ?config=webutil the "RegisterWebUtil - Loading WebUtil Version 1.0.6" shows but the main applet doesn't load. The webutil HTML template is found and looks OK in View Source but no applet. The config section has a archive_jini but it behaves as if the main jar can't be found(?) Nothing extra in the jinit-console, even at log level 5. webutil.cfg is copied to forms/server and frmwebutil.jar to forms/java.
Suggestions appreciated,
Nik

Hi,
Can you check Vitual Path of WebUtil in the config file ..\forms\server\forms.conf?
I would like to see your files
..\forms\server\default.env
..\forms\server\forms.conf

I was trying to activate my CS3 and got help from chat until he said it was an installing issue. The application opens and then closes unexpectedly.

I just got a new mac and I'm trying to download my Adobe CS3 onto it. I was able to download and then I tried to activate it. I entered the CS3 serial number and then asked for the serial number of the older version. I originally bought CS2 on disc and downloaded it onto my old mac and from there bought an upgrade to CS3. I no longer have the discs or box for CS2 and so I do not have the CS2 serial number. I contacted chat support who helped until I reached the point where I could open the application but then it would quit immediately and say "Adobe Update quit unexpectedly." Then he said it was an installing issue and turned me to the forums. Help, please?

JohnEden I would recommend running all available uninstallers to remove the current installation. The uninstallers are located in the Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers folder. Once you have ran the uninstallers then please also utilize the CC Cleaner Tool for a complete removal. You can find details on how to utilize the CC Cleaner Tool at Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html.

Error when installing issue in Content Viewer

Hi,
I have a strange error in my Content Viewer.
When downloading it stalls and a message says "Could not install issue, relaunch app and download your purchase again" (my translation from swedish).
It sometimes stalls when downloading and sometimes when installing issue.
Anyone got a solution or having the same problem?
Br
Henrik

Henrik, this can be either or. The internal Acrobat.com servers seem to have download issues once a week or so.
The best way I think you can determine this is if the download is failing at the same point during the download. If it is, it's a problem with the folio. If it's not, then it's a temporary problems with the servers.
If it is a problem with the folio, there's no straightforward answer -- but if you were able to download that folio recently, delete or update the articles you've added since.
If you have no idea what's causing it, you can either start deleting articles, or try updating them first.

I am having the same problem with the Crystal Reports 2011 trial.
I am running Windows 7 64-bit and have administrator rights. I have tried running it in XP compatibility mode and also with the virus checker disabled.
It has now come up with the same error message on 5 different attempts....
Any ideas, SAP?

Can' t read disk label, install issues

can' t read disk label, install issues
i am trying to install solaris 8 on a sparc5 (256mb, 4.2gb,110mhz). i initially installed using the installation disk and it seemed successful as i was able to load the rest of the cds. something went wrong though b/c the system is stuck in a rebooting loop after it finished the last cd. so i went searching and found that i could only have a root partition of no bigger than 1gb. since i used the installation disk, i was not given an option to specify slice sizes. so now, i am trying to redo the install starting from the first disk (1 of 2) and skipping the installation disk. when i do a "boot cdrom" with the 1 of 2 disk, i get the cant read disk label or something about short entry and it will not boot. i am using actual Solaris 8 cds and not downloads. what can i do to get it to boot up from the first disk, or fix the partitioning on the disk?

I am using the offical Solaris 8 Installation 2/02 for SPARC Platform Edition for Sun Computer Systems February 2002, Revision A
Output from the probe-ide command follows:
device 0 (Primary Master)
ATA Model: ST3160023A
device 1 (Primary Slave)

device 2 (Secondary Master)
ATA Model: ST340016A
device 3 (Secondary Slave)
not present
device 0 is the new hard disk that I just installed
device 1 is the CDR drive
device 2 is the original hard disk. I can boot this but now get some magic disk errors or something like that
device 3 is not present
I have all devices set to cable select according to the manual.
Thanks for your help...

Windows xp itunes install issue

I am attempting to install Itunes using Windows XP at Service Pack 3 with all the security updates installed. The instal begins and during the final process of setup, I receive the following error message and the Itunes instal backs out and stops.
Error message, " These is a problem with this Windows Installer package. Aprogram run as part of the setup did not finish as expected. Contact your support personnel or package vendor".
I am looking for some advice after working on the Apple and Microsoft website's trying to find a solution.

Thank You B Noir for the helping hand in reapiring my problem in loading Itunes.
I ended up working with an Apple Service Tech who had me delete all the programs associated with the Apples Itune install. Quicktime, Apple Application Support, Apple Modile Device Support, Bonjour and Apple Software Update.
Each of the programs were un-installed with no issues until we started the uninstall of Apple Software Update, which your note indicated could be a cause for the install issue.
Using the Windows program "Fixit" downloaded off the Microsoft website, we determined that the registry keys for this program had become corrupted. We used Fixit filtering down to an install repair module inside if Fixit to remove the damaged program from my PC's registry then Fixit uninstalled the Apple Software Update program.
Once this was done, we were able to successfully instal Itunes using the latest Itunes install packaged found on the Apple website.
Thanks Again for your advice.

Netstorage broken after 6.5 SP5 install

After patching to SP5 (and post patches) on NWSB 6.5 server, NS is
broke. Users can login and drives map OK, but no data appears.
After the SP5 install, I couldn't authenticate. I followed TID
10098297 and that fixed authentication.
also - when trying to access NSADMIN, I get an error that I'm not
authorized and that I need to be proxy user or equiv. logged in as me
and user Admin. no luck.
Jeff

OK, if I map with IP address, I can see files now, but.... when I try
to download, it prompts for login/password again. And won't accept
anything.

Crystal Reports XI R2 Service Pack 3 Install Issues

Post Author: iamtgo3
CA Forum: Crystal Reports
Crystal Reports XI R2 check automatically for updates when I open it. It finds an update Crystal Reports XI R2 Service Pack 3. Now when you go to install it I get this error.
"Crystal Reports XI R2 Service Pack 3 is for Crystal Reports XI R2 only, and cannot be installed on top of other Business Objects XI R2 products."
A while back a service packe came out for both Crystal Reports Server and Crystal Reports that would update both of them same Service Pack. I am sure this is why I now have the issue. If this is the issue then why the heck post it for updating both. Plus how can I remove other Service Pack so I can install this one? I am sure it is a reinstall of complete CR product. I have purchased CR2008 so I am just trying to buy time till Visual Studios 2008 is complete and release (Not just the 90 day trial)
So any suggestions on how to install Crystal Reports XI R2 Service Pack 3 with my above issue would be helpful thanks.

Hi
You have mentioned that "There are others in my company that after they installed SP3 they were able to successfully connect and I am still getting a login fail error."
So would like to know the version and type of database that the Universes are based on.off.
1) Please ensure that you have the exact version and type of the database installed on your machine, that your colleagues are using .
Say for e.g if the Universes are based off Oracle 9 database, then ensure that you have the Oracle client(version 9) installed on your machine.
2)Please make sure that you have been added in the user list in the database.
May be we could come close to narrowing down on the issue by checking these 2 things.
