Hi,
I am facing some error message when installing the Crystal Reports 2008 that I have purchased. I am currently working on a Windows XP Pro SP2, 1 GB RAM, 60 GD Free Space to install the Crystal Reports but failed. The error stated on the Crystal Reports installation screen is "Crystal Reports 2008 Setup has Failed".
Thanks.

Database Logon Failed which created by Crystal Report 2008

this time i meet the famous error again which is database logon failed.
i created a crystal report 2008 starting from blank report, then connect with odbc
i use 2008 method
objRpt.SetDatabaseLogon(db_username, db_password, odbc_name, database_name);
2008 method will get database logon failed even set database location and verify database again
then i use 8.5 method and try again for 2008 report. it said field name is unknown for one of formula
then i drag field again for formula and set database location and verify database again
it said the same error.
then i uninstall 8.5 crytal report software in window 7 deployment machine, and do above again, it said the same error

How to open the crystal reports 2008 in CRYSTAL REPORTS ENTERPRISE 4.0

Hi All,
Can you please let me know how can migrated the crystal reports from BO XI 3.1 to SAP BO 4.1 and after migrate how to open the crystal reports 2008 in CRYSTAL REPORTS ENTERPRISE 4.0.
can you please help on this and if document please share.
Thanks,
Rajesh

Use the upgrade management tool to move from 3.1 reports to BO 4.1. After migration, open the report in crystal enterprise 4.0, you will get a message saying that the report will be converted to latest version, will not be able to view from older version after converting. (Similar words- not sure exact words).

Install the Crystal Reports Runtime SP2 to an alternate drive

I need to install the Crystal Reports Runtime SP2 (CRRuntime_12_2_mlb.msi) to a drive other then the C: drive. The installation package does not give the option to choose an install location. Is there any way this can be done?

If you have your AppPool set for 32 bit then install the 32 bit runtime, if it's set for 64 bit then install the 64 bit runtime.
Try searching, lots of posts on this subject.

Integrate the Crystal Reports 2008 SP1 with SAP R/3

Hi Experts,
I have a requirement to integrate Crystal Reports with the SAP R/3 . I'm new with this kind of integration and need help because I need to create a report based on the R/3 data.
I have read some posts from this forum especially on the integration kits - SAP forum but still don't have any idea on how to do it?
I already installed the BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 3.1 and also Crystal Reports 2008 SP1. I also download the Integration Kits -SAP installer from the SAP Marketplace but when I tried to installed it, I get stuck because it need information for BW publisher.
As for your information, we don't use any BW server because we only use R/3.
Can anyone help me where to start on this integration?
Thanks,
-Syahida-

Hi Stratos,
You're right regarding the transport files. My basis team able to transport that file but when I try again to connect from Crystal Report to R/3, it come out with other error like " Connect to SAP gateway failed" and " partner 202.171.46.161 :3300 not reached"
What I did were :
a) Click on blank report
b) Create New Connection
c) SAP Tables, Cluster
Did I do any wrong here because the error cameout after I did all the step above ? When I look out on the error, it seems like it need to use port 3300. Is there any specific port required for the integration? This is because if the integration through SAPGui, it should used port 3200 and if go direct using SAPRouter, it will use port 3299.
Really need your expertise here or any document that I can refer because the standard document for integration kit for SAP did not mention anything about the port.
Thanks and Regards,
-Syahida-

Formula in the Crystal report 2008 R2

Hi Experts,
I want a formula in the Crystal report.
Scenario is that i want the sum of INV4.taxsum where INV4.Relatetype = 1 .(means, i want only sum of taxsum of lines having relatetype = 1 and not all ).
how to write the formula for crystal report filed ?
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Dwarak

Hi Dwarak,
Go to the Field Explorer > Right-click Running Total Fields > New.
Choose INV4.taxsum as the field to summarize and in the Evaluate section, choose 'Formula' and click on the formula button beside it. Use this code:
INV4.Relatetype = 1
Drag and drop the Running Total field on the Footer section.
You can also do this using two formulas.
First formula goes on the Details section with this code:
whileprintingrecords;
numbervar summ;
if INV4.Relatetype = 1 then
summ := summ + INV4.taxsum;
And another one to display with this code. This goes in the footer:
whileprintingrecords;
numbervar summ;

If i install the Crystal Reports Server on server machine

i have CR XI R2 edition ,if i intigrate with VS.Net will i be using VS Designer or crystal reports designer
Edited by: kolahalam kathyaini on Nov 25, 2008 12:04 PM

Hello,
You didn't mention which version of Visual Studios you're using. Crystal Reports XI Release 2 (v11.5) Developer edition will integrate into VS2002, VS2003, and VS2005. CR XI R2 will not integrate into VS2008. CR XIR2 Standard edition and CR XIR2 Professional edition will not integrate into Visual Studios because they are not development level products.
After you install Visual Studios 2002/2003/2005 when you install CR XIR2 Developer edition then CR XIR2 will integrate into Visual Studios. The VS IDE will be updated to work with CR XI R2 and the CR XIR2 assemblies, etc.
In this case your application will use CR XIR2 for application development, and you can create reports in CR XIR2, or inside Visual Studios (since the CR Designer in VS has now been updated to CR XIR2).
I hope this answers your question. If you need further clarification please let me know.
Sincerely,
Dan Kelleher

Problems installing Crystal Reports 2008 Server on Windows Server 2008 serv

I attempted to install the Crystal Reports 2008 product on one of our Windows Server 2008 servers.
After installing disk 1
Crystal Reports 2008 Server attempts to open up in IE...... but opens up to a blank page
http://bmlfileserver:8080/CmcApp/
anyone have any idea why? why does it not prompt for the second CD?
Is this a compatibility with Windows Server 2008?

I'm attempting to install CRS 2008 on Windows Server 2008 as well, and I'm running into a few issues. Did you ever get yours resolved? I started by trying to use IIS, but I'm uninstalling it completely now and will try Tomcat instead. Which route did you go?

Crystal Reports 2008 SP1 Install Error 1402 on Vista 64

I just downloaded and tried to install the Crystal Reports 2008 SP1 and when I try to run the setup I get a error 1402, could not open key error and the service pack rolls back. I also tried to reinstall from my original CD and I not get the same error. I have tried to run the install using the run as administrator and with Norton 360 disabled and I still get the error. How do I correct this problem so I can update and correct my version of Crystal Reports 2008 Pro?

Hi David,
The link above seems to only refer to deploying runtime. I suggest you un-install Crystal Reports, go into the registry and delete all of our keys. Assuming you only have CR 2008 installed and the usual warnings about backing up or exporting your registry before making any changes:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Business Objects
And
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Business Objects
And then download a full build of SP1 from this link:
https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100006556612009E/cr2008v1win_rf.exe
Make sure you do have full Admin rights and check with your IT department to confirm they have not modified the local Administrator profile.
SP1 is DEP aware so it's not required to disable it.
Before you do all of the above You may also want to copy the SP to your local PC rather than running it from a network share point. Network delays can also cause issues like this.
Thank you
Don

Crystal Reports 2008-Vista-ERROR-crw32.exe Entry Point Not Found in dll

Hi Experts,
I just installed the Crystal Reports 2008 (with SP0) on my Vista (Home) machine. When I try to start the CR 2008, I am getting the below error message:
Error Title: crw32.exe - Entry Point Not Found
Error Message: The procedure entry point ?PrintLegend@CMapXLegend@CSLib300@@QAEXJJJJJ@Z could not be located in the dynamic link library cslibu-3-0.dll
Here are the things I tried to resolve the above problem:
1) Uninstall and Reinstall the CR 2008. - No change.
2) I configured the DEP to accept Crystal Reports (Performance - Advanced - DEP allow).
None of these seem fix the problem.
Can you please help me kick start the Crystal Reports 2008?
Thanks,
Arun

Please try with this:
Run a command prompt as administrator. From the start menu, select "All Programs", then "Accessories" and right-click on the "Command Prompt" shortcut and choose "Run As Administrator". From here you can use the following command to disable Data Execution Prevention (DEP) with the following command:
bcdedit.exe /set nx AlwaysOff
Keeping your command prompt open, run your setup or other process being stopped by DEP. Then, to turn it back on again, do the same and run the following:
bcdedit.exe /set nx AlwaysOn

Shweta

Crystal Reports 2008 on Windows 7

I have a client running Crystal Reports 2008 in a Windows 7 environment. The client states that when printing Crystal Reports, they will only print to his local printer, to the bypass tray. The client states that when changing the printer to any other network printer, the Crystal Reports will not print. The client also states that printing from other applications, such as his accounting software (Peachtree), Open Office, e-mail, etc. he is able to print to any printer without problems. Does anyone know if there are any outstanding problems with running Crystal Reports 2008 in a Windows 7 environment, or has anyone heard of this type of issue before?
Thank you,
Tammi

Thank you, Don. I have not verified if the client has downloaded and installed the Crystal Reports 2008 SP2 update yet or not, nor do I know which SP of Windows 7 they are running. I will forward this information to their IT person and have them confirm this for me.
To answer your other questions, I had disassociated the printer with the reports (we also check the NO PRINTER box before saving the reports). The client claims that the printing does not work in either the Crystal Reports Viewer, nor through the Designer. They are using this as a locally installed application (Windows not Web).
Thank you again for your suggestions. I will get them implemented right away, if they have not been.
Best regards,
Tammi

Crystal Reports 2008 - CR Runtime 12 issue

We are developing our applications using VS 2008 and I also install the Crystal Reports 2008 developer edition. My project references all DLL's from Crystal Reports 2008 runtime (BusinessObjects\Common\4.0\Managed\dotnet2) to display CR reports in our GUI.
However, I run into following problems when we walk through the assembly dependencies (our code traverse the dependency tree):
- The dependency on BusinessObjects.Enterprise.Sdk, Version=12.0.1100.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=692fbea5521e1304 cannot be found, which is referenced by CrystalDecisions.Enterprise.Framework
- Some dll are reported to be using .NET 1.1 runtime (e.g. "BusinessObjects.Licensing.KeycodeDecoder.dll v1.1.4322").
Where could I find the missing dependencies?
We are targeting customer installing on .NET 2.0 framework. How could we get around those v1.1.4322 dependencies (through I believe that the Crystal Reports Runtime 12 might install those into our clients)
Thanks
Sai-Kit

First, I never DIRECTLY reference those .NET 1.1 DLL's in my project.
- understood and expected
The CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.dll however will try to load them as dependencies when my application is run. There is no way not to referencing CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.dll.
- no the CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.dll ; will not try to load those assemblies. You can remove those assemblies from GAC. Your app will work just fine. I recommend you try this once you have removed the assemblies from your project..
We need to deploy the application to our customer. If they only install .NET 2.0, they will ask why .NET 1.1 dll are installed into their computer (of course, as part of CR 12 runtime instead of our application). Also, why CR 10.5 is .NET 1.1 clean and CR 12 goes back to .NET 1.1??? My customer will have that concern after their upgrade.
- As I mentioned twice now. The CR runtime (msm and / or msi files) do not install those assemblies. So your customer will not even get them installed. I recommend you try the install on a clean computer to see what actually gets installed.

Thank you

Sent the the upload team also.
Try the MSI package to see if that works for you.
And please post new issues in new posts. This one if fixed.
MSM's have been re-uploaded.
Thank you
Don
