Developer Reports 6 Server Tuning

I've successfully installed Oracle Reports 6 Server and it works. However, it takes a while when I access a report (.rdf) from a web browser. I've been reading documentations and played around with some parameters but it still loads slow. Any inputs on tuning this?
Thanks.

I would check your query first.
tune your queries such that they come back really fast then check your
report server performance with running it
from a command line (rwcli60) and see what happens.

Developer Report vs Server Report

This is driving me crazy....
Scenario:
I have the developer edition CF 7.02 created report with CF
report builder. I have report grouped, and start new page when
group changes. Tested on localhost... Works fine.
Uploaded to server.
Tested on server... Doesn't group or start new page on group.
Both are running CF 7,0,2,142559.
I updated both with hot fix 7.02
I even installed report builder on server and attempted to
recreate. It would allow me to start new page on it at all. Any
suggestions? I don't know where to start to look for the problem. I
suspected it was a CF server problem, but don't see how when the
versions are the same.... unless the report part of CF is seperate.

Hi
since SP2 is not yet available for the CR Server V1 I would recommend NOT to install SP2 for the CR Designer V1.

Will the reports developed in sql server 2008 r2 BIDS work when deployed on sql server 2012 reporting manager

Will the reports developed in sql server 2008 r2 BIDS work when deployed on sql server 2012 reporting manager?
when I check on Microsoft site it says
Reports are not upgraded when you upload a report definition file directly to the report server
or SharePoint site. Upgrading a report definition in SQL Server Data Tools is the only way to upgrade the .rdl file.
When you open an .rdl file in Report Designer in SQL Server Data Tools (SSDT), if the report was
created for a previous namespace, Report Designer automatically creates a backup file and upgrades the report to the current namespace.
This is the only way you can upgrade a report definition file.
Now here is another confusing statement which says
You can upload an .rdl file created in an earlier version of Reporting Services to a SQL Server
2012 report server and it is automatically upgraded on first use. The report server stores the report definition file in the original format. The report is automatically upgraded the first time it is viewed, but the stored report definition file remains
unchanged.
All I want to know is if I deploy a rdl made in 2008 r2 to 2012 will it work on the report manager of
2012?
<o:p>

I have tested this fucntionality and can confirm that ssrs 2008 r2 reports work when you deploy them on new ssrs 2012 report manager .
No Migration is required .
I didnt even moved report server dbs .All I did is just deployed reports on the report manager and it worked .
"You
can upload an .rdl file created in an earlier version of Reporting Services to a SQL Server 2012 report server and it is automatically upgraded on first use. "
Microsoft needs to correct this the documentation is misleading

Fusion Middleware - Installing Forms & Reports Developer in separate server

Hi,
I installed Forms & Reports Server (without developer tools) on one server. Now I want to install only Forms and Reports developer in another server. Can anybody tell me how to achieve this or from where I can get some reference document particularly for this task?

you could set the working directory of your formsweb.cfg entry to another path;
e.g.:
[test_config]
workingDirectory=d:\devworkspace\forms
where d:\devworkspace\forms is the directory where your fmx/plx/mmx are located
if you have also own .jar files in use, you could also put them into another directory, and access them in the formsweb.cfg via an aliasmatch:
archive=frmall.jar,../my_aliasmatch/my_jar_file1.jar,../my_aliasmatch/my_jar_file2.jar
and in the httpd.conf (OAS_HOME/Apache/Apache/conf/httpd.conf)
add a line like this:
AliasMatch ^/forms/my_aliasmatch/(..*) "d:\devworkspace\java/$1"
where d:\devworkspace\java is the directory where your jar files are located.
and restart Apache.
for productional use you can also create a different config with a different workdir and a different aliasmatch.
the reports can also be located anywhere; just set the workdir and cachedir of your testreportsserver to a location where your reports are located.

Christian

Problem with Crystal Report Job Server Destinations

I am using Crystal Reports XI Server and I am having problems with scheduling. I believe that the problem is that I have not enabled any destinations under the Crystal Reports Job Server. The following is an observation list:
-Enabled and set up all destinations for other servers, such as the Destination Server.
-Have been able to use Infoview to directly email, inbox, and file save reports in different formats (I believe the Destination Server controls this, right?)
-All servers are enabled in the Central Configuration Manager
-Have been able to go into the Crystal Reports Job Server within the CMC, but I DO NOT FIND ANY destinations to enable (why is this?)
-Have not been able to schedule an instance of any report (neither email, nor inbox, nor file, ...nothing)
Could somebody please help me with this? Is this a limitation to the Crystal Reports XI Server vs the Enterprise edition? Is there something else I am missing? I have never been able to successfully schedule a report.

Thank you for the input, but I have not yet solved my problem. Please allow me to provide some additional information which may give more hints:
I have Crystal Reports XI Server R2 installed as 5 named user license (version that comes with developer)
The following servers are enabled in CMC (which is all of them)
-Input.DomainNameSQL
-DomainNameSQL.cacheserver
-DomainNameSQL.cms
-DomainNameSQL.destinationjobserver (has all destinations enabled)
-DomainNameSQL.eventserver
-DomainNameSQL.ListofValuesJobServer (no destination tab)
-DomainNameSQL.pageserver
-DomainNameSQL.programjobserver (has all destinations enabled)
-DomainNameSQL.RAS
-DomainNameSQL.reportjobserver (has destinations tab, but there are no destination entries to enable! Object type is: CrystalEnterprise.Report and detail: IDL:omg.org/CORBA/UserException:1.0
. Details: %2.'
These are the ONLY two event IDs that appear after I schedule the report instance. No other events occur.
Are there any other logs that I can check? How do I look up what event ID 45387 and 45385 are?
Thanks!

Error when calling a report from Server?

We have a .NET application on the server and we want to call a crystal report (.rpt) from one of the forms (.NET aspx page). We are getting below error. The report works fine on the desktop where it is developed. Please let us know if there is any specific process to move the reports to server. Any help is appreciated.
The report is developed in Crystal Reports 2008 and we are using Visual Studio 2005. We are using Crystal Report Viewer control to call / associate the report developed.
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.

Hi,
It seems that you are having issue with Crystal reports .Net SDK's.
Post your question in Crystal Reports .NET SDK forum.
That forum is monitored by qualified technicians and you will get a faster response there. Also, all .NET SDK queries remain in one place and thus can be easily searched in one place.
Thank you for your understanding,

Hi,
Have you install the runtime files of CR 2008 on server, if not then install it from [here|http://resources.businessobjects.com/support/additional_downloads/runtime.asp#08].
Download according to the service pack applied on CR 2008.
Also ensure that you are at service pack 1 level of CR 2008 as its a latest service pack available for CR 2008.
Hope this will help!!

Amit

Load Report Failed - Report Application Server Failed error at runtime

Hello, I'm pretty new to Crystal Reports so please bear with me.
I just installed CR 2008 on my development box, which is running VS2005 .NET 2.0. I changed over all of my assembly references in my web.config to the new version:
<add assembly="CrystalDecisions.Web, Version=12.0.2000.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=692FBEA5521E1304"/>
<add assembly="CrystalDecisions.Shared, Version=12.0.2000.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=692FBEA5521E1304"/>

<add assembly="CrystalDecisions.Enterprise.Viewing.ReportSource, Version=12.0.1100.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=692FBEA5521E1304"/>
Also the webpage that is displaying the ReportViewer object has this reference as well:
<%@ Register Assembly="CrystalDecisions.Web, Version=12.0.2000.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=692fbea5521e1304"
    Namespace="CrystalDecisions.Web" TagPrefix="CR" %>
Now, in my code behind I am simply trying to open a pre-built crystal report that came in the sample pack
When I try and do this in our already built website I get an error:
"Load report failed"
With the inner exception saying:
"The Report Application Server failed"
This same piece of code works perfectly if I build a new website, however when I try and impliment this into our existing code base I get the error shown above. Also the samples I've used all use .NET 3.5 and the website is in 2.0. I'm not sure if that is a factor or not but that is also another piece of information that could be useful.
Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for you're time.

Code changes for BOE XI R2 from Crystal Reports XI Server R2

I'm using a Crystal Reports Server XI R2 server currently for hosting my development reports. But my production server is going to be Business Objects Enterprise Professional XI R2.
What will be changes that I need to ponder?

You will need to upgrade XIR2 to XI 3.1 if you intend to import reports from CRS 2008. As the message states reports cannot be imported from new to older versions only the other way is supported from older to new, or from the same version to the same version.

Exporting Queries from Developer Reports .rdf file

Is there a way I can extract the queries from the Developer Reports .rdf file.
We have the reports on a NT File server from where the users access the reports. We do not have the Report tables installed in the database.
We are using Developer Reports 3.0
Your help is highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Chegi Reddy

This isn't possible directly. You could use the conversion utility to convert the rdf files to rex files (textual representations), or XML files with the 9i release, and then parse these files to get the queries. Note that since rex is considered an 'internal' representation there's no documentation on the structure, but it shouldn't be too difficult to figure out where the queries are.
Hope this helps,
Danny

Load Report Failed - Server Only

Hello,
I have an asp.net C# application hosted on an Amazon EC2 server. I am trying to select a report using:
    ReportDocument rep;
    protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        string reportPath = Server.MapPath((string)Utils.GetSessionNavigator(this).GetDataFromCurrentPage(PageParams.Reports.Report));
        if (!IsPostBack)
            rep = new ReportDocument();
        try
            if (!File.Exists(reportPath))
                Response.Write("The specified report does not exist \n");
            rep.Load(reportPath);
            //LoadReport(rep);
            rep.SetDatabaseLogon("******", "******");
            this.CrystalReportViewer1.ToolPanelView = CrystalDecisions.Web.ToolPanelViewType.None;
            this.CrystalReportViewer1.HasToggleGroupTreeButton = false;
            this.CrystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = rep;
        catch (Exception ex)
            Response.Write(ex.Message);
    private void Page_Unload(object sender, EventArgs e)
        rep.Close();
        rep.Dispose();
The report path is pointing towards my folder containing the reports, and the relevant file is being found with File.Exists, however upon using rep.Load, the exception message 'Load Report Failed" is being posted.
I have installed the correct runtimes as I have another application running on the same server, and that isn't having the same issues. Perhaps the reportPath is different but I am not sure.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

Glad that it worked.
The cause is like a niddle in a haystack...:. I did remember seeing something like this and have a KB created for it but it is not available on SCN yet.
1245654 - A Crystal Reports.NET web application deployed using the Visual Studio 'Publish' option, throws "Load Report Failed" error.
Here is the solution from KB. (Works for VS 2010 too)
Compile the web application in Visual Studio.
On completion of the build as success, go to Build -> Publish Web Site.
In Publish Web Site window, set the target location.
Check the Allow this precompiled site to be updatable checkbox (by default it is unchecked).
Check the Use fixed naming and single page assemblies checkbox (by default it is unchecked).
Click OK to proceed ahead and publish the web application.
Make sure that the Crystal reports in server machine are of the same size as the one in development machine, to ensure.
But I still copy the CR reports manually.. but thats just my way.
Thanks,
Bhushan

Reports 6i Server - Other Databases

Hi
Can Reports 6i server be connected to any database other than Oracle. I heard Oracle 9iAS supports all types of databases but is there any limitation with server6i in this regard.
Rgds
Ravi

Developer 6i supports odbc connections.
You setup ODBC and datasource then connect from Developer as
user/password@odbc:datasource_name.
For proper working, I think you should install ODBC from Developer CD when setting up Developer, then you should install Patch 1 for Oracle Reports 6i.

CrystalReport - Getting "The Report Application Server failed" while export

Hi Experts,
I am using Crystal Reports 2008 in my ASP.NET application to generate reports. Everythings works fine in the development environment. When I deploy it on my Windows Server 2003 system, I get an error "The Report Application Server failed" while exporting the report from the report control. But, the report assuch is working fine even in the production environement. I experience this issue only while exporting to excel or anyother format.
Do I need to configure anything or any settings needs to be turned on in the .rpt files!!
Appreciate any help to get this issue resolved.
TIA,
Prem

First a confirmation. When you say; "...exporting the report from the report control...", you mean the printer button on the viewer?
Questions;
What version of .NET?
What Crystal Reports Service Pack are you on?
How was the CR runtime installed on the server?\
Can you print the report OK?
Are you using sessions?

Generate report on server and open it in a client report viewer, possible?

Hi guys,
We are new to Crystal report so please feel free to correct me if I had the idea wrong.
Our client-server application was written in a language other than Java and Dot Net. We want to use Java and Crystal SDKs to glue our application, the Crystal Report Server and Report Viewers together...
We are planning to collect report parameters within the client of our own application (due to attributes of our application and parameters we need) and then pass it back to the server side (our server, not Crystal server). Our server will then generate a XML file and run a Java program talks to the Crystal Report Server (XI R2) to run a report with the XML file and store the result on the server side. Then it will send a message back to the client, tells it the report has been generated. Then our client program will fire up the Crystal Report Viewer to view the report.
I was just wondering if it is possible to do what we wanted with Java SDKs that are available to us (JRC, Viewer SDK and Report Application Server SDK)? Has anybody done the similar thing before?
Also we would like to have some drill-down reports with XML as report data source. Would it be possible to intersect drill-down event fired in a report viewer(Java and Web)? I would imagine the report viewer will then call some Java program talk to our application server to generate XML file for the drill-down section and then some how programmatically tell the viewer to display the drilled down report with the XML file just generated... Will my design work? Any advice or thought will be highly appreciated.
Thank you,
Dong

If you are using Crystal Reports Server, you can do almost everything you want using the RAS Java SDK. RAS will accept XML as a runtime datasource, and then manipulate the report at the server end and render the report in the DHTML viewer. If you want your client to call the viewer, have it call the JSP file that the viewer code has been added to.
The RAS SDK doesn't have any ability to intercept or manipulate drill down events, so the second part of what you would like to do may not be possible. Because our viewers are dynamically generated there is no source code to look at or use to make changes to the viewer outside of what is available in the viewer SDK.
Below is a link to the developer library with the Report Application Server SDK that has sample code and tutorials to do what you need to do, as well as the Java Docs of the RAS SDK.

Developing reports using JDeveloper 3.0

Is it possible to develop reports using jdeveloper 3.0, so that the end users can print reports over the internet? Is that a feature in jdeveloper or do I have to buy a third party tool?
Thanks,

Creating HTML/XML-XSL based reports in JDeveloper is completely doable.
To do this you can either create a Servlet or a JSP. This JSP/Servlet can use either either JDBC or BC4J to access a datasource in the database.
For further info on how to do this see the
Java Server Pages overview at: http://tooldemo.oracle.com/demos/tools/jdeveloper/
Hope this helps,
