Deploying 'Crystal Reports' on a 64 bit machine

Hi,
I am trying to deploy my application on a 64 bit machine.
I am using Crystal Reports XI release 2.
When I tried to deploy it ona 32 bit machine i simply added the
CrystalReports11_5_NET_2005.msm file to my detup project and it worked.
However, when I tried to do the same thing on the 64 bit (with a 64 bit setup project)
I recieved a runtime error message:
"An error has occurred while attempting to load the Crystal Reports runtime.
Either the Crystal Reports registry key permissions are insufficient or the Crystal Reports runtime
is not installed correctly."
after that it was said:
"Please install the appropriate Crystal Reports redistributable (CRRedist*.msi)
containing the correct version of the Crystal Reports runtime (x86, x64 or Itanium) required..."
I installed 'CRRedist2005_X64.msi' on the 64 bit machine and tried to run my setup with and without
the CrystalReports11_5_NET_2005.msm file, and it didn't work.
What should I do next?
Thanks,
Arik

Hi Arik,
You need to use the CrystalReports11_5_NET_2005.msm file for the application deployment.The 'CRRedist2005_X64.msi' is meant for the bundled version of Crystal for Visual Studio 2005.
You could refer to this [Business Objects Note.|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/oss_notes_boj/sdn_oss_boj_dev/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/scn_bosap/notes.do]
In addition, you would need to enable the 32 bit mode of the ASP.NET 2.0 on the deployment server. This is because it is necessary to run the application under 32 bit mode. Please refer this MS Kbase article for more info - http://support.microsoft.com/kb/894435

Crystal Report For True 64 bit Mode

Hi,
We Have a ASP.Net Web Application with .Net Framework 4.0, Build in VS2010.
We are using Crystal Report for VS2010, Version : CRforVS_13_0_5 .
In our web Application, we have a Separate Project for Crystal Report.
Currently, I install Crystal Report in 32 bit machine and deploy the 64 bit machine using "CRRuntime_64bit_13_0_5.msi".
where the Crystal Report Project/dll/Process is running in 64 bit machine in 32 bit Mode.
But,
I want to compile Crystal Report Project project in native 64 bit mode and deploy it on a 64 bit machine,
So that it will run in true 64 bit mode as 64 bit Process in 64 Bit platform.
I don't want to run it as 32 bit process in 64 bit platform .
How it is possible, Please Suggest.
Thanks & Regards,

As simple as it gets..
Compile the application by setting the target platform of the app to X64 on dev machine.
Deploy the app on a 64 bit machine. Configure the IIS app pool to run the app in 64 bit mode.
Download and install CR for VS 2010 64 bit MSI on the server.. (for erspective SP).

Deploying crystal reports 8.5 - error in exporting to RTF & PDF

Hi guys. I'm at my wits end, trying to get a valid build of a legacy app running reports under Crystal 8.5 going.
I've scoured google for days, and I've tried almost everything people have suggested. At the moment I've got the installer working, it installs and registers all the crystal dll's that everyone says are needed. However, when I try and and export a report to RTF or PDF (other options like excel work fine), it simply dies, doing basically nothing. The save to disk dialog just closes and nothing happens. If I rename or delete crxf_rtf.dll, the program will crash or hang, indicating that this is the file responsible for exporting to rtf.
However, the only machine in our office that this will work on is one with a C:\Program Files\Seagate Software\crtslv.dll file.. Same kind of test indicates that on this machine, the above file is being used for exporting. So, where am I going wrong? It seems ludicrously difficult to find a straight, no-nonsense guide on how to deploy crystal reports 8.5; the official documentation doesn't even mention it! What is the easiest way to do this?
I have tried several third-party options ( http://www.fryan0911.com/2008/09/crystal-report-85-runtime-files.html ) like these..
Any ideas?
Ok so here's a further breakdown with some more information; hoping it might help someone to come up with an answer...
If I install a crystal "distributable", like the one linked above, and then install my project (with all crystal stuff turned off in the installer), everything works perfectly apart from exporting reports to rtf.
If I make my own installer, following the Runtime.hlp and the crpe32.dep, and put all dll's in the windows/system32 folder (apart from two, can't remember their names), I get two different errors, depending on the version of crpe32.dll I use.
One gives me "Error 20599: Cannot connect to SQL Server", whenever I try and run a report.
The other gives me "Error 20000: N", whenever I try and run a report.
Anything sound familiar here guys? I have dll dependency headache.
Again, more info - I just checked out the PC's already in deployment (we had to re-do in the installer for some changes, the guys who did it originally aren't around anymore), and here is a list of the dll's installed on the machine.. what deployment method would this point to? And how can I replicate it? I'm not sure if I grabbed all the required DLL's from the client machine, as it didn't seem to follow the Crystal 8.5 deployment instructions, I could have easily have missed some? So I can't just use what I've got to create an installer and hope that it works...

Wow. I've never seen an app load all 3 SDKs in one go. the RDC, Automation Server, OCS and print engine APIs all in one (?!)Who wrote this app?
Don't know - the app was written years ago.. It's all a bit messed up, i'm just the cleaner :S
Once again, I have not a clue as to what SDK you are using.
What Sp1, SP2, SP3? Do you have links to these?
By SP3, I meant Windows XP Service Pack 3, 2, 1 - I've read around the net that Crystal 8.5 exporting breaks when you install sp3, and I thought that perhaps my deployments were failing because they were compiled on a sp3 box?
There is also CR 8.5 Service Pack 3 - apparently it can make CR work on Vista/Win7?
http://resources.businessobjects.com/support/additional_downloads/service_packs/crystal_reports_en.asp
I have tried installing on dev machine, recompiling installer and running on test box - doesn't seem to help..
Do you have any machine where this actually works?
Yep, it's working on the clients machine - that is the one suffixed as "AA" in the linked difference file above
1st place to start is with a working app - is there such a thing? ^^
Next you want to know what SDK you are using.
Ok, so the VB6 app, under Project > References, lists : cpeaut32.dll
under Project > Components, lists: Crystl32.ocx
Is that any help?
Then you want to know what dlls to deploy.
Knowing the database connection type is good. - ODBC
Knowing the version of the db client that works is good. But that depends on having an actual working app.
Do you have CR 8.5 designer and are you able to run and refresh the report there?
Yep, I have 8.5 designer, and I can run and export the report fine.. But when I run MODULES on it, it's referencing C:\Program Files\Seagate Software\Shared\ExportModeller.dll & crtslv.dll.. Which don't exist on the client machine at this point in time..
I'd recommend you stop doing what ever you are doing, answer the questions and wait until I get back. As it is, you're all over the place and by the time I have a chance to reply, you're 1000 miles out in the bushes on your own. So, please answer the questions above and wait...

Re: Crystal Reports 5.0 (32-Bit) and Forte 2.0H16 on NT3.51

Dear Silke,
Crystal's default for identifying a table in the report design is
<schema>.<table>. You can change that by going to the Database Location menu
item and cutting the schema prefix off. You should do that for every table in
the report. The PESetNthTableLogOnInfo function will, I believe, not change
the schema prefix of a table, since it assumes you really want that schema,
i.e., as an override. Also, if you are using the propagateAcrossAllTables
feature of the function make sure that every table has the schema prefix cut
off, otherwise those tables will be skipped, since the propagate feature applies
to all other similar tables only. For example, some of the tables could be
Sybase, etc.
I believe you can change the default behaviour of the CR Report Designer in the
File->Preferences menu, so that when reports are designed the schema prefix is
not automatically attached.
I have compiled some guidelines on designing reports to make them work properly
with Forte. I will try to send them to you next week. Crystal Reports and its
C API are a good product, and you will get good performance once the report
design is set up properly.
Yours very sincerely, John Hodgson.

The hotline from Crystal told us, when using subreports you have to use
the PESetNthTableLogOnInfo and to go through all the subreports and
change the connect-string.
Our experience is, you have to do both: change the report and call the
other function for the subreports.
Thank you very much for all the tips.

Hi There,
Crystal reports stores Database name as a hard-coded
value in the
report template. So if you have to use an other
database, you will
have to open the report template and modify the
database name. I
think this is why you are getting Crystal API error.
Hope this helps!

Hello,
I wonder if we have a similar problem.
We are using Crystal Reports 5 and Forte 3.0.F.2. For
the interface
between Forte and Crystal we have in Forte a Lib using
C-wrappering to
the C-API of Crystal.
We have developed a report on a database in our
development-environment. This report comes up with data
and works
correct. It's no different if we have saved the report
in Crystal with
data or without.
If we want to use the same report on another database
in our
test-environment the window from crystal reports comes
up and when
starting there is an error from the Crystal API
function.
Both environments use the same version of an Oracle
Database and are on
Open VMS. The client for the test is in this case
always the same.
From the C-API we use the method PEStartPrintJob after
we have specified
the rest for the report.
Is there a possibility that this is the same error you
mentioned? Or do
you have any other ideas?
Any help is appreciated.

Tim,
You need to upgrade to CrystalReports 6.0. There isa bug in the
interaction between Forte and CrystalReports 5.0 (Idon't know on
which side the bug resides, but I think that it is onthe Crystal end,
since the problem occurs both through C-wrapperingand OLE
interaction), which does not allow you to invoke thePrintReport
method unless you have saved data with the report.
As far as I know, there is no workaround, and theonly solution is to
upgrade to CrystalReports 6.0.
FYI, there is no ActiveX control supplied withCrystalReports 5.0 -
you are actually using standard OLE integration.
Hope this helps...
Regards,
-Katie

Hi Forte-User !
We got a big problem here using the crystal active-xcontrol. On my
windows-nt 4.0 machine (with
crystal reports installed completely) all works well.On our test
machine (with only the crystal ActiveX
installed), the Forte runtime shuts down afterinvoking a special
method of the ocx (PrintReport).
The cause for shutting down (no stacktrace orsomething like that) is
a generated c++ exception in crystal -
but we don't know the cause of this exception.
Has anyone made the control work under nt 3.51 ? Doesanybody know
(exactly) what dll's we'll have
to use ?

Error deploying Crystal Report XI R2 to Enterprise - Failed to read paramet

Error deploying Crystal Report XI R2 to Enterprise - Failed to read parameter object.
I know this issue has been addressed several times and the solution recommended was to install Service Pack 2. I have done that. It started working for me too; however recently I got some error saying some UDF***.DLL is missing. I re-installed Crystal Reports XI R2 and Service Pack 2. Unfortunately though, this error is back. I have restarted the machine n number of times but keep on getting this error.
My report file has dynamic parameters defined through command object (SQL Query). My understanding is that once I publish the report to BoE Enterprise, BO will create LOVs and BV's in the repository. Now that is not happening.
has any one else had this issue before and resolved it?
Thanks

Hi,
do you export your CR report in your BOBJ repository using an account with administrator rights?

Deploying crystal reports basic for visual studio 2008 for VB6

My application has a module in .net and other in vb6.
I have a problem on deploying crystal reports in client machines, for module in vb6.
The vb6 application uses crystal viewer control obtained from crystal reports basic for visual studio 2008.
What type of deployment should I use?
Currently, I have a setup with prerequisite "crystal reports basic for visual studio 2008".
But I think it misses the dlls crviewer.dll and craxddrt.dll, so I put them in setup and with the register COM options, and it works, but it's not working very well.
When I open a form that uses crystal viewer, the setup (I have created) is lunched and says that have to restart machine. Then it opens the report, but the next time I use the application it does the same thing.

Ok, thank's for the posts, they help so much.
So I'm going to discard vb6 and move to .NET, but... there is a problem:
Many reports have parameters that are asked before showing the report.
The Crystal Viewer that is used in VB6 version isn't the same used in .NET.
The viewer of VB6 asks the parameters in the way we want, however the .NET crystal viewer ask's the parameters in way that we don't like, because we have to do next -> next -> next...
The links above show the diferences:
VB6 -> http://picasaweb.google.com.br/paulo.gonc/CrystalReports#5249249283702618322
.NET -> http://picasaweb.google.com.br/paulo.gonc/CrystalReports#5249246459437178242
There is a way to configure Crystal Viewer, so that parameters asking form will work like the vb6 away?

Deploying Crystal Reports runtime using merge module failed

Hi,
I am having a problem when deploying Crystal Reports using merge module runtime, included into MS Visual Studio web setup project, when installing my *.msi with CR runtime on a completely clean PC (with only MS Windows installed). Error: Failed to register one of the Crystal Reportsu2019 *.dll because it could not find Microsoft visual C++ runtime (msvcr71.dll was not in Windows\System32 folder)
I am using Crystal Reports runtime merge modules, which I downloaded from here: https://websmp130.sap-ag.de/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/bobj_download/main.htm
I tried both cr120_mm.zip (Crystal Reports 2008) and cr121_mm.zip (Crystal Reports 2008 SP1)
cr120 could not find msvcr71.dll, cr121 could not find msvcp80.dll.
Steps to reproduce:
-          In MS Visual Studio 2008 create a new empty Web Setup Project.
-          Add Crystal Reports merge module CRRuntime_12_0.msm or CRRuntime_12_1.msm
-          Build *.msi
-          Try to install this *.msi on a completely clean PC. I tried it on Windows Server 2003 R2 SP3, which did not have msvcr71.dll or msvcp80.dll files in C:\Windows\System32 or in any other PATH folders.

Deploy Crystal Report via ClickOnce without .msi

Hi,
I would like to know whether it's possible to deploy Crystal Report without requiring admin rights from the installer.
My program uses many 3rd party components. Most of them very heavyweight with licensing, COM objects etc but Crystal Report is the only one that needs a .msi install. Is it possible to include Crystal Report's dll with the application? I tried it but Crystal Report failed to load at the form saying there's something wrong with the installation (I didn't "install").

Only way to distribute the CR runtime is via the MSM or MSI files. For links to the msm and msi files see [this|https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=56787567] wiki.

How to Deploy crystal reports in BOE

Hi,

    2.How many ways is there to deploy crystal reports in BOE server and name of the method is needed.
   Anyone knows about these details could you please reply me

I am not sure what you are asking.
Are you trying to publish reports into Enterprise so they can be run from say infoview, scheduled etc? If so you can either use the publishing wizard or do a save as from the Crystal Reports designer and save them to Enterprise directly.

Visual Studio 2005 deploy Crystal Report to Windows Server 2008 64-bit

I've read a lot of posts here regarding deploying on a 64-bit server, but I'm still confused.
We use Visual Studio 2005 to develop on a Windows XP machine. We use the built-in version of Crystal that comes with VS2005.
We want to deploy the runtime to a Windows Server 2008 running 64-bit. We want to deploy using the msi runtime components and not the merge modules.
We end up with the message "An error has occurred while attempting to load Crystal Reports".
So, the question is, can we build & deploy a 64-bit version, and if so, what are we doing wrong here ? At first glance, I don't see VS 2005 as listing Windows 2008 as a supported platform, so am I dead in the water right there ? If that's the case .... then what are my options ?
Any help or pointing me in the right direction would be greatly appreciated !
Thank You,
Wayne

In a nut shell, the only two 64 bit versions of Crystal Reports are 10.2 (bundles with .NET 2005) and 10.5 (bundles with .NET 2008). All other versions of Crystal Reports are 32 bit only.

Issue with New Release Deploying Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2010

Previously I created a deployment project with Visual Studio 2010 using the Beta 2 release of the distributable. This worked fine and installed on a 32-bit XP machine.
I've since updated the project to use the new Release version of the distributable CRRuntime_32bit_13_0.msi. Now when I run the installed program it gives me the following message -
"An error has occurred while attempting to load the Crystal Reports runtime. Either the Crystal Reports registry key permissions are insufficient, or the Crystal Reports runtime is not installed correctly. Please install the appropriate Crystal Reports redistributable (CRRedist*.msi) containing the correct version of the Crystal Reports runtime (x86, x64, or Itanium) required. Please go to http://www.businessobjects.com/support for more information."
I've had a look at verious posts and added code to the app.config file so it looks like -
<startup useLegacyV2RuntimeActivationPolicy="true">
<supportedRuntime version="v4.0" sku=".NETFramework,Version=v4.0"/>
</startup>
and also tried targetting various .NET frameworks, but without success.
Am I missing something?

Hello,
More info, are you installing on the same PC as the Beta was installed on or a clean PC?
Your app must be set to the full framework, not the client version.
Are you installing by right clicking on your setup.exe and selecting run as administrator?
Setting that option in the app.config is only required if you are using that driver you found the info on.
Run ProcessMonitor and set it to filter your installer and see what it reports.
Thank you

Hi,
Installing [CR for VS 2010 |http://downloads.businessobjects.com/akdlm/cr4vs2010/CRforVS_13_0.exe]on top of visual studio 2010 will give you a bundled crystal designer available inside visual studio 2010 IDE. Apply [SP2 on CR for VS 2010 |http://downloads.businessobjects.com/akdlm/cr4vs2010/CRforVS_13_0_2.exe]Upgrade the reports in the bundled designer and compile / build your application.
Take a look at the Deployment section of [CR for VS 2010 Developer guide |http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/sapCRVS2010/en/crnet_dg_2010_en.zip]for recommendded deployment procedures.
The [MSI (Redistributable runtimes)|http://downloads.businessobjects.com/akdlm/cr4vs2010/CRforVS_redist_install_32bit_13_0_2.zip] is meant to install manually on the app server / client machine.
Search the forum for 'cr for vs 2010 deployment' you will find many useful threads, kbases, wikis.
Hope this helps,
Bhushan.
