Error with Crystal Reports XI R2 installation

I was attempting to get support but no luck with over the phone support so maybe I can find some help here.
"It apparently looks like there is a problem with the Crystal Server Installation itself in your system. The sample files that came with Crystal package itself is not showing up.
See attached screen shot that shows the error when you are trying to run "SimplePreviewReport.asp" from IIS."
Screenshot shows the web page will not open from http:
localhost\CIReports\SimplePreviewReport.asp

Hi Todd
Can I assume that the product itself was installed correctly and you are having trouble running one of the SDK samples? Which product have you installed.... Crystal Reports or Crystal Reports Server? The sample page you are using indicates that you might be using the Report Design Component.... you will know this if you see the CrystalRuntime.Application object in your code.
Your post indicates that you have installed Crystal Reports Server...... If this is the case, and you want to use the RDC, then you will also need to install Crystal Reports on the server as well, since the RDC get's its runtime from Crystal Reports.

Error With Crystal Reports On Windows Server 2012

Hello,
I have a VB.NET exe application created in Visual Studio 2010 that prints a crystal report directly to the printer. On Windows Server 2008 it worked fine but it does not work on Windows Server 2012. The report was originally created in Crystal Reports 2011. I have read elsewhere that in order to run a Crystal Report on WS 2012 that it needs to be created using Crystal Reports for Visual Studio. So I installed the developer version of Crystal Reports for Visual Studio (v. 13.0.8.1216). I opened the report in Visual Studio and saved it. I then installed the CRRuntime_64bit_13_0_8.msi on the WS 2012. My vb.net exe has the CrystalDecisions assemblies shown below. When I try to run the exe I get the error below. Does anyone have any idea as to what I am doing wrong? Thank you for your input.
Unhandled Exception: System.TypeInitializationException: The type initializer for 'PrintWorkOrderAndDrawing.PrintWorkOrderAndDrawing' threw an exception. ---> System.TypeInitializationException: The type initializer for 'CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.En

Hi Thomas
First the info re.;
I have read elsewhere that in order to run a Crystal Report on WS 2012 that it needs to be created using Crystal Reports for Visual Studio.
is incorrect. CRVS will run all reports down to CR 9 without issues. And even reports created in older versions will, for the most part, work just fine.
The error is rather strange as it normally indicates that an incorrect runtime has been installed. However in your case as you are using CR 13.0.8.1216 and the 64bit_13_0_8.msi that does not look to be the case. I would like you to double check the CR references in the project. Say, crystaldecisions.crystalreports.engine. It should be version 13.0.2000.0.
If that is confirmed, then we may be at the permissions mentioned in the error. And I'd use Process Monitor for that. Filter ProcMon for the app exe and run the app. Look at the logs for "Access denied" messages. In the log, look for CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine, see what the exe is doing with it. Where is it trying to load it from? Etc., etc.

Connection error with Crystal Report XI, VB6 and Sybase ASE15

Hello !
I have an error #4002 when I want to launch a report in VB6 with the ActiveX Crystal Report Viewer.
I use Sybase ASE 15 with an ODBC link and the reports run stored procedures.
This error seems to be an authentification error, but I don't know what parameters are missing or wrong...
- My reports works well in the report designer.
- The reports connected to a text file or an ADO recordset work in VB6.
- The Verify Database works in design mode in VB6.
- The problem is the same with tables, stored procedures, SQL and with or without parameters...
- I tried to connect the report to a DataEnvironnment but I get the same error.
The problem appears when I use the Crystal Wizard to create a form automatically AND when I create objects directly in code like :
    Dim crapp As CRAXDRT.Application
    Dim oReport As CRAXDRT.Report
    Set crapp = New CRAXDRT.Application
    Set oReport = crapp.OpenReport("C:\myreport.rpt")
    CRViewer.ReportSource = oReport
    CRViewer.viewReport
Please help !

Hello,
I don't see any database logon code in what you posted. You need to log onto the database at runtime since Crystal Reports will never store passwords.
You can download and review the [Connection Properties|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/00635998-751e-2b10-9cba-f50ee1e4ef81] document for more information on how to log onto your database at runtime. This document was written for CR9, but it's the same for CR10, CR XI (v11.0), and CR XI R2 (v11.5).
I hope this helps.
Sincerely,
Dan Kelleher

Report Selection Formula Error with Crystal Reports 2008 SP3 Fix Pack 3.5

Hello,
My name is Carlos, and I would like to report a defect found in the Crystal Reports 2008 SP 3 Fix Pack 3.5 Runtime that is affecting the majority of our reports. As well, I would like to ask if there is a simple workaround that does not involve updating hundreds of reports.
The issue is that the runtime engine incorrectly returns the report selection formula. I have included sample code showing what I mean.
To reproduce;
1. Create a simple report that has a date range filter like:
({Orders.Order_Date} >= {?START_DATE})
AND ({Orders.Order_Date} <= {?END_DATE})
2. Create a test app as follow that loads a report using the following code:
ReportDocument rpt = null;
try
rpt = new ReportDocument();
rpt.Load("TestReport.rpt");
this.txtMessage.Text = string.Format(
 "ReportSelectionFormula:{0}{1}",
 Environment.NewLine,
rpt.RecordSelectionFormula);
catch (Exception ex)
this.txtMessage.Text = ex.ToString();
3. Install Crystal Reports 2008 SP3 Fix Pack 3.5 Runtime [https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100006341772011E/cr2008fp35_redist.zip]..
4. Execute the app.
At this stage, the screen shows
ReportSelectionFormula:
( ( NOT {Orders.Order_Date} >= {?START_DATE} ) AND ( NOT {Orders.Order_Date} <= {?END_DATE} ) )
The expected value is:
ReportSelectionFormula:
( ( {Orders.Order_Date} >= {?START_DATE} ) AND ( {Orders.Order_Date} <= {?END_DATE} ) )
If we were to repeat the same test above but use the Crystal Reports 2003 SP3 runtime (i.e. no Fix Pack), which can be dowloaded from [https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100007123592010E/cr2008sp3_redist.zip], we would get the correct report selection formula. A side-effect for this incorrect report selection formula is a runtime exception complaining about an errorkind and a boolean being expected.
Do you know if there is any workaround that I can apply in code, perhaps a different Fix Pack? Is there a Fix Pack expected to be released soon? It is not practical for us to update our reports and use a different style in the record selection formula because we have many such reports, and our customers probably have even more.
Thank you.
-Carlos.

Already a known issue, here's the [KB 1584095 - A boolean NOT is added at the beginning of a record selection formula when the report is loaded by the Crystal Reports .NET SDK |http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/oss_notes_boj/sdn_oss_boj_bi/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/scn_bosap/notes%7B6163636573733d36393736354636443646363436353344333933393338323636393736354637333631373036453646373436353733354636453735364436323635373233443330333033303331333533383334333033393335%7D.do]

Error with Crystal Reports/VS2010

I've got a user that is getting the following error when trying to view a report from a .NET desktop application...the type initializer for 'crystaldecisions.crystalreports.engine.reportdocument' threw an exception
I've installed the runtime engine from here Link: [http://www.businessobjects.com/jump/xi/crvs2010/us2_default.asp] and also tried adding the merge module into the setup package for the application. I'm still seeing the same error. What else needs to be installed for the reports to work with VS2010?
Thanks

Yes I used an MSI to install the application and merge module.
This is on a 32bit Windows 7 machine.
Tried compiling/installing the app as x86, .Net 3.5 and also 4.0
The error shows when trying to view the report
The app only uses 2 reports, but errors on both
I cannot reproduce on my dev box, it works fine for me...typical
I haven't been able to track down another 32 bit Win7 box to test with
A little more history...
This same msi was used to install the app on XP boxes and the app worked fine. At the time, Beta 2 of the runtime files was all that was available so that's what I used.
One user has recently switched to Win7 and after installing the app, the initial error was that crpe32.dll could not be found, even though it was in the exact directory listed in the error message. Using Add/Remove Programs would not uninstall the runtime, so we followed the steps listed in the last post here Link: [Uninstalling Crystal for vs2010 beta;. That uninstalled the runtime so we could install the latest version of the runtime. Now we get the error listed in my initial post.
thanks!

Error when opening a BW query with Crystal Reports

Hi all,
I am having problems when opening a BW query with Crystal Reports, the strange thing is that it only happens with
the bo user I have created. If I use a user that already exists and that has SAP_ALL authorization it works.
I don't know if this could be an authorizations issue, but I have created a role with all the authorizations stated in the manual.
The error I am getting is the following:
"An error occurred while generating a new report template. Error in UNKNOWN.RPT file"
Does anyone know what this could be?
Thanks

Well,
I cannot access the system now. But I think it is not an issue of authorization, because I assigned all the good user's role to the bo user,
and even with that, it still don't work.
Thanks

Error exporting Crystal Report with VB Script

I am working with Crystal Reports and attempting to export a .RPT file to a .PDF file using a VBScript called from InSQL. I can get the script to work properly if I require a user entry for file destination and name (.export true) but get the error message "Missing or out-of-date export dll" when I attempt to export the .RPT silently (.export false). The report also exports correctly when I manually initiate the export from within Crystal Report. Do you have any examples or solutions for this procedure? Thank you in advance.
Here is my code for the VBScript export:
dim rptfile, exportfile
dim strDate
dim objCRRpt
dim objCRApp
strDate = "_" & right("0" & month(now()),2) & "_" & right("0" & day(now()),2) & "_" & year(now())
rptfile = UCase("C:\CompCriticalAlarmReport_Test\Report1.rpt")
exportfile = "C:\CompCriticalAlarmReport_Test\criticalalarmreport" & strDate & ".PDF"
Set objCRApp = CreateObject("CrystalRuntime.Application")
set objCRRpt = objCRApp.openreport(rptfile)
With objCRRpt
 With .exportoptions
 .formattype = CrEFTCrystalReport
 .diskfilename = exportfile
 .destinationtype = CrEDTDiskFile
 .usereportdateformat = true
 .usereportnumberformat = true
 End With
.export (false)
End With
Set objCRApp = Nothing
set objCRRpt = Nothing

Ludek, I downloaded the VBA Sample application using the Microsoft Access Database and it is coming up with the same error as my VBScript for the PDF export. The error message for this application is "Run-time error '-2147190908 (80047784)': Failed to export the report."
Private Sub Image47_Click() 'Exporting to PDF
'Defines report's format type
Me.crxReport.ExportOptions.FormatType = crEFTPortableDocFormat
'Defines report's destination type
Me.crxReport.ExportOptions.DestinationType = crEDTDiskFile
'Defines report's file name
Me.crxReport.ExportOptions.DiskFileName = "C:\MyPDFfile.pdf"
'exports without calling the exporting dialog window
Me.crxReport.Export False <----ERROR OCCURS ON THIS LINE
When I Run the application with Me.crxReport.Export True, the application executes without error and a popup appears prompting me to select the destination and format type. I need this to run automatically though without a user prompt.
I have seen numerous topics regarding the exportmodeller.dll, crtslv.dll, and atl.dll files improperly registering or the incorrect versions causing export problems. Could this be causing problems with my export functions? Again, the reports export fine when I manually export them, I am just having a problem when I try to export automatically in any format (excel, text, pdf, rpt, etc...)

Error when startup WPF Application with Crystal Report !

Hi!
I have an error when build & run a WPF Application with Crystal Report. Can anyone help me ?
First, I created 2 project, one is the WPF Application & one is Shell Start Up project (to show loading screen, then show main window when loaded, is WPF Application too)
WPF Application:
/// <summary>
 /// Interaction logic for MainWindow.xaml
 /// </summary>
 public partial class MainWindow : Window {
 public MainWindow() {
 InitializeComponent();
 // crViewer is SAPBusinessObjects.WPF.Viewer.CrystalReportsViewer
 crViewer.ViewerCore.ReportSource = new CrystalReport1(); // Assign report to viewer
Shell Startup:

 public static void Main(string[] args) {
 AppDomain.CurrentDomain.UnhandledException += new UnhandledExceptionEventHandler(CurrentDomain_UnhandledException);
 Application app = new Application();
 ShowLoadingWindow(); // Show loading screen
 MainWindow mw = new MainWindow();
 mw.Show();
 app.Run();
 static void CurrentDomain_UnhandledException(object sender, UnhandledExceptionEventArgs e) {
 // Exception was throw here
And here is the exception & it's stack trace
Message: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
Stacktrace:

As far as I know the error is typically due to the fact that I'm trying to address an object that has not been set. E.g.; this could be due to bad scoping, bad inits/constructs, trying to access a member of a class without instance object and so on. I suspect this is a design \ code issue. You might be able to confirm this using [Process Monitor|http://technet.microsoft.com/en-ca/sysinternals/bb896645.aspx].
Other than that, I'd recommend creating a phone case here:

Linked Button error in a subReport with Crystal Reports

Hi expert,
I have a designed a subreport with Crystal Report, and I have add the Sap Linked button (OLE Object), to allow the user to click on the linked button and open the relativa Sap Document (Invoice, Delivery, etc etc).
In the hypetetx linked property, I have write the link
'http://$b1$/link=OINV&key=1'
In this way all is ok, but In my query I have the name of the table and the DocEntry, so I try this way:
'http://$b1$/link='&{Comando.Table}&'&key='&{Comando.DocEntry}
If I try to open the document, I retrieve the error: You are not permitted to perform this action. Authorisation Path: Help.
I don't understand if the problem is the authorization (i am manager, superuser) or if I had write in a wrong mode the hypertext link. (maybe the Apex?)
Anybody can help me?
Regards
Marco

Hi Marco,
if {Comando.DocEntry} field is string type try this code:
'http://$b1$/link?table='& {Comando.Table} &'&key='& ToText(ToNumber({Comando.DocEntry}),0,'','')
else if DocEntry field is number type try this code:
'http://$b1$/link?table='& {Comando.Table} &'&key='& ToText({Comando.DocEntry},0,'','')

Invalid export DLL or export format" with Crystal Reports 2008 to Excel xls

We are experiencing the same issue as reported in the sticky thread. I answered in that thread, but thought that I woudl open a new thread to keep track of this issue. I can give you the responses to your questions you have requested in that thread:
Server Operating System - MS Windows Server 2003 R2 Enterprise Edition SP2
Version of the .NET Framework - MS .NET Framework 3.5 SP1
How did you deploy? - Installed CR 2008 SP1 runtime with msi package
If you deployed with CRRuntime_12_0_mlb.msi - what was the date of the file and its size? CRRuntime_12_1_mlb.msi dated Sept. 16, 2008 12:55:00 PM, size: 56,717,824 bytes
What is the file version of crpe32.dll on your server? You'll find this in the C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86 directory - File was created 9/13/08 11:21AM, 9451KB File Version: 12.1.0.882
How many libpng10.dll files are on your system? List all instances. - 1 instance is on the system located in C;\Program Files\Business Objects\Business Objects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86 directory. It is dated 9/13/08 8:52:26AM 132KB version 1.0.30.1
Any additional comments - We have tried to export to PDF and this works successfully. However, we can not export to xls or rft formats.
CRXF_XLS.dll is 905KB 9/13/08 9:38AM Version 12.1.0.882
CRXF_RTF.dll is 509KB 9/13/08 9:35AM Version 12.1.0.882
We also have the CR XIR2 server runtime installed side by side on the server as we migrate from CR 2008 to CR XIR2 SP4 ( where this function does work currently).
Please let me know if you need anything additional.

"Invalid export DLL or export format" with Crystal Reports 2008
Posted: Sep 27, 2008 12:36 AM       E-mail this message      Reply
I've included this sticky because we are seeing many posts in this forum regarding the error Invalid export DLL or export format when exporting to Excel and RTF in .NET applications using the Crystal Reports 2008 .NET SDK.
Issue
Exporting a Crystal Report to Excel or RTF format
.NET application using the Crystal Reports 2008 runtime (version 12.0)
error Invalid export DLL or export format
We've been doing some testing in-house and haven't reproduced this behavior. In order to figure this issue out we will need your help. If you are getting this error please reply to this post with the following information:
Server Operating System
Version of the .NET Framework
How did you deploy?
If you deployed with CRRuntime_12_0_mlb.msi - what was the date of the file and its size?
What is the file version of crpe32.dll on your server? You'll find this in the C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86 directory
How many libpng10.dll files are on your system? List all instances.
Any additional comments
What We Know
The error invalid export DLL or export format may occur when exporting to Excel and RTF formats in .NET applications utilizing the Crystal Reports 2008 runtime (v 12.0)
Other export formats like Adobe PDF, Crystal Reports, CSV all export with no error
Some customers have resolved this by adding C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86 to their environment path variables
This may have something to do with the file libpng10.dll. Both crxf_xls.dll and crxf_rtf.dll are dependent on it.
Thanks in advance for your co-operation. We hope to figure out what is causing this issue soon.

Hi,
I am also having the same problem, except that I am not using Crystal Report 2008 runtime but the actual Crystal Report 2008 installation on Windows XP SP2 with VS Studio 2005 (VC++). MS .NET Framework 2.0.
Cyrstal Report XIR2 was installed on the same machine but uninstalled before installing Crystal Report 2008.
So only one instance of libpng10.dll and found in C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86
Crpe32.dll        3/1/2008 version 12.0.0.683
Crxf_xls.dll       3/1/2008 version 12.0.0.683
Crxf_rtf.dll         3/1/2008 version 12.0.0.683
crdb_oracle.dll 3/1/2008 version 12.0.0.683
libpng10.dll       3/1/2008 version 1.0.30.0             122880 bytes
There is no problem for exporting to pdf, html, word, csv, Crystal Report. If I create a testing report without any data from database, the testing report can then be exported also to rtf and xls.
Oracle 11.1.0.6 is the DB for the reports.
Adding C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86 to the path did not resolve my problem.
Any idea to fix this issue?
Thanks

Error in Crystal Reports 2008 Runtime Version = 12.2.3.467

Dear Support Team
 
 
I am making the setup for our application using InstallShield 2010.
 
 
I recently updated the crystal reports 2008 runtime to version = 12.2.3.467.
 
 
Based on this article
 
 
 
 
Topic of the week (October 15, 2009)
 
Date time field is blank when using ADO .NET dataset and Crystal Reports 2008, Service Pack 2.0
 
This is a new issue, very specific to CR 2008 and SP 2. Date time fields are stripped out of a report (or not
 
visible), if a report is consuming a .NET dataset which contains a date time field. A technical escalation has been
 
submitted and a work-around is detailed in note number 1392258
 
 
 
Since DateTime Column was not getting displayed in the deployment machine when running the report.
 
 
So I downloaded the Crystal Report 2008 FP2.3 and merge module for the same and installed on my development machine
 
 
where I am making the Setup.
 
 
I am able to make the setup successfully without errors, but when I try to install the setup on the deployment machine I am getting
 
the errors as
 
 
Error 1904.Module C:\Program Files\BusinessObjects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86\CEReportSource.dll

The same sort of errors is coming but I am doing everything right as per that article.
 
 
To Inform you further before updating crystal reports 2008 runtime to version = 12.2.3.467.
 
 
Everything was working fine, only problem was that Date Time column was not displaying at runtime on the deployment
 
 
machine.

Dear Mr. Williams
I dont think this is the issue related to MS Installer. Still based on your suggestion I downloaded the latest MS Installer from Microsoft Website and Installed on my setup machine and made the new setup with zero errors and warning.
The deployment machine is having full rights and so there is no security issues related to installation even though to clear the confusion I installed the setup on three other xp machines the result was same even after installing the latest MS installer on those machines as well.
I wanrt to remind it again since I was facing the DATE TIME column Issue problem in reports on deployment machines so I updated the Crystal Reports TO CRFP 2.3 EXE AND MSM as mentioned in your forums regarding this known bug that if datetime column is getting from dataset then that column was not getting displayed.
From that time onwards I am unable to install the setup on the deployment machines and I am getting errors unable to register errors crystal reports dlls.
Apart from that I downloaded Crystal Reports 2008 Fix Pack 2.3 - Redist Install (cr2008_fp23_redist.zip) from the download page but i can't open it I am gettinig the error message doesnt appear to be a valid archive.
Please help me and provide me some solution regardeing the issue I am stuck with.
