Failed to load DB info. Details: DLL 'crdb_oracle.dll' could not be loaded

Hello anyone who can help.
Reports were created using a full version of Crystal Reports 2008, version 12.2.0.290
I am trying to show the reports in a VS 2008 web page but I keep receiving the following error.
"Failed to load database information. Details: The database DLL 'crdb_oracle.dll' could not be loaded"
Googling the Internet I found several things to try but nothing has worked.
1. Made sure the crdb_oracle.dll was in the path
2. Copied the crdb_oracle.dll to
C:\Program Files\Business Objects\Common\2.8\bin
and to
C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86
3. Granted full permission to ASPNET to the folders in which crdb_oracle.dll resides.
4. The oracle client is installed.
I am not really sure what else to try at this point.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Mike

Here is your problem:
2. Copied the crdb_oracle.dll to
C:\Program Files\Business Objects\Common\2.8\bin
There is a reason for why that dll is not included with Crystal Reports Basic for Visual Studio 2008 (10.5). E.g., CR 10.5 is a bundle that comes with MS Visual Studio. Oracle being a competitor of MS...
Anyhow. Tips on how to proceed:
1) Use ODBC or OLE DB AS opposed to a native Oracle connection
2) Use the CR 2008 assemblies not the Crystal Reports Basic for Visual Studio 2008 assemblies
3) You could even consider ADO .NET Datasets - but that depends on other variables (structure of the report, amount of data, etc., etc.)

Failed to load database information. Details: The database DLL 'crdb_fielddef.dll' could not be loaded.

I recently recreated a report using our Crystal Reports XI for .NET upgrade. The report consists of 6 subreports, all based on dynamic datasets(field defs only) and loaded at runtime. Problem is that it's not working. I keep getting the following error when trying to run the asp.net ReportViewer page. Failed to load database information. Details: The database DLL 'crdb_fielddef.dll' could not be loaded. Error in File C:\DOCUME1\eseidel\LOCALS1\Temp\SupplierReport_Final {02CAA886-3D0C-43E9-8155-EA7E58FAB8C7}.rpt: Failed to load database information.
Any ideas? Thanks. I do have crdb_fielddef.dll in my c:/windows/system32 and I tried to include it in the project as well but with no luck. Please help. Thank you.
Eric

Looks like these report were created off of a ttx file. What Crystal Reports SDK are you using to develop the app? If you are using the RDC, this has not been tested in .NET and as such is not supported. If you are using teh CR assemblies for .NET, pass a dataset to the report. The dataset must match the structure as defined in the ttx. The report will then use the crdb_adoplus.dlll and you the fielddef dll will not come into play at all.

Failed to load database information DLL crdb_p2smapi.dll could not be loade

Hello,
Iam using Crystaldelivery to view mij crystal reports.
I have made a report to read in my outlook agenda.
The design of the report is made in Crystal report XI release 2.
First when we open the viewer you can select the parameters and then comes the error message.
Now when i want to view the report in Crystaldelivery or any other crystal viewer (i tried with more viewers) i get the message:
Failed to load database information.
Details: The database DLL crdb_p2smapi.dll could not be loaded.
Error in file: PATH TO THE TEMP FILE.rpt:

Can somebody help me with this?
What makes this error to come up and how can we get the message away and we can view the report.
thx

Well, you are still not giving enough info to suggest things so I recommend purchasing a support and working with a Support engineer to resolve the issue. It's obvious information requests is being lost here so to get this resolved please contact CIC and purchase a case.

This problem appears to be ongoing 5 years after this thread was started. I have just run into it.
When WiX builds a custom action, the build proceeds as normal and produces a managed code output, say MyCustomActions.dll. Windows Installer doesn't support managed code in custom actions, so the managed code has to be wrapped in an unmanaged native code
wrapper, so in a post-build step, it injects the managed output into the unmanaged wrapper and _that_ then becomes the project's build output and will be named MyCustomActions.CA.dll. I believe that Code Contracts may be trying to open the unmanaged wrapper
file and discovering that it is not managed code ("invalid format").
In order for CCRewrite to work here, it would need to run on the managed code _before_ it gets wrapped in the unmanaged wrapper. I am not sure how we can hook into the build process to get that to happen.
It might be possible to somehow make a WiX Custom Action project by creating a standard C# class library, which would work correctly with CCRewrite, then somehow performing the WiX packaging as a post-build step. I'm not sure what is required though, exactly.
Any ideas?

Hi guys.The post title explains the problem...I'm using Crystal Report XI : Developper with Windows Server 2003.I need to display reports over the web, so I'm using the Crystal Report ActiveX Viewer.All is working fine for now, except the following : When I try to show the report, I only see the Viewer's border, with the viewer empty, and on the top, its written : Failed to load database information. Details: The database DLL 'crdb_odbc.dll' could not be loaded.
I searched my computer, and I found many different crdb_odbc.dll(I used many different versions of Crystal Report), they all are in the Common Files folders, and I tried to register it, but since there is no Entry, I cant register it. I also un/re-installed Crystal Report, both on the server AND on the client machine, and I keep getting the same error message.So I'm kinda stuck now.. If anybody knows where I should head first, to get over this problem, it would be very nice.Thanks.François BoivinSTAS, Analyst Programmerwww.stas.biz

when you set up your ODBC connection what type of connection did you create. Does it work from any machine ?. You might want to try adding another ODBC connection to the Windows Server, Chose System DSN (If that is appropriate for your environment) and try the openlink generic (Again If that is appropriate for your environment) Whatever you call this connection, you will need a clone on the server side as well, same name, same case, same everything.... Not sure if this will help, but I had some situations were I got a similar error, and doing the above fixed my problem.... ( I am using SQL server though, so....)

The database DLL 'crdb_p2bbtrv.dll' could not be loaded.

I'm using Visual Studio 2008 to develop an ASP.NET application to display reports created using Crystal Reports XI.
We currently have a working VB6 application that employees use to launch reports written in Crystal Reports XI. My task is to rewrite the user interface using Visual Studio 2008 in ASP.NET and provide the reports on our company ASP.NET portal.
The reports that need to be launched are all existing reports written in XI. There is no VB code that defines data connection; it just launches the report in a report viewer.
Here is the VB 6 code:
Set CrystalApplication = CreateObject("CrystalRuntime.Application.9")
Set CrystalReport = CrystalApplication.OpenReport(grsReports!ReportFile)
crViewer.ReportSource = CrystalReport
crViewer.ViewReport
Very simple!
Now this should be simple to reproduce in ASP.NET page; 30min top.
Dim crystalReport As New ReportDocument()
crystalReport.Load(q.ReportLoc)
CrystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = crystalReport
I created the page threw it up on the server and everything looks fine. When the user selects a report they are presented with a box that says enter values. They enter the date range and select OK. Then BOOMB!

Install the Btrieve database engine on the system with the Visual Studio .NET application. How do I do that?
Thank you

Hi Larry,
The problem is you originally used the CR Basic version which is included with VS 2008, cr version is 10.5. So what you are doing is going backwards in CR runtime version.
Next problem is CR Basic for VS 2008 does not include the native Btrieve driver and the one included in the XI runtime will not work in VS 2008. VS 2008 and CR basic only supports the basic ODBC, OLE DB and few others drivers...
When you downloaded the trial version of CR 2008 use Service Pack 3 full version and rebuild your app with the updated 12.3.x.x runtime, 12.0.1100.x and 12.0.2000.x assembly versions. And when you do install CR 2008 SP 3 select the custom option to manually select the native btrieve/pervasive driver, it's not installed by default. Now your application will spefifically look for CR 2008 rutime, if you don't update by rebuilding the app it will continue to use the 10.5 runtime.
Now when you build your deployment package also use the Service Pack 3 Redist MSI package, it will include the native driver.
If you don't purchase CR 2008 your license will run out in a month and your users will not be able to continue using your app.
If you don't upgrade your only option is to convert your reports to ODBC and then verify you are not using any CR XI specific features, they won't work in CR 10.5 runtime.
Hope this clears it all up for you?
Thank you
Don

The database DLL 'crdb_query.dll' could not be loaded

Hi Experts,
We are facing the following problem on windows 2008 64bit machine with crystal reports 2008 and ODBC connectivity.
We are upgraded our production server OS to Windows 2008 64bit machine,After upgrade some of the crystal reports are not working and throughing the following error
Failed to load database information.Details: The database DLL 'crdb_query.dll' could not be loaded
Not able to find the exact reason.There is no difference between working and non-working reports.
On server we installed Crystal reports 2008 developer and runtime version.Our application is build on .net and to connect to database from crystal reports we are using ODBC connectivity and our database is oracle
Any idea how to resolve this one?
Thank you.
Edited by: venkat_crystal on May 18, 2011 6:57 AM

CR 2008 and it's runtime is 32 bit only. Make sure your database client also is 32 bit and you added your DSN using the 32 bit ODBC Administrator.
As long as you use Service Pack 3 it should work. windows 7 was added to SP 2 and 2008 is it's matching Server OS so it should work.
How did you distribute the runtime?
Thanks

NiScope Initialize.viThe specific niScopeDAQ or niScopeDMF dll could not be loaded.

I am getting this error when I try to use both IVI-SCOPE and NI-SCOPE in TestStand. I make sure to close each reference before I use the next, but it seems like whichever one is called first will not release its reference unless I reboot the PC. I wrote a LabVIEW VI that initializes the scope using IVI, then closes it and opens it wth NI-SCOPE and this seems to work fine However, when I try to execute a sequence in TestStand that should effectively do the same thing, I get the following error when calling niscope Initialize.
Details: "niScope Initialize.viThe specific niScopeDAQ or niScopeDMF dll could not be loaded."
Error Code: "-1074118608; User-defined error code."
I need to use both because the IVI drivers do not support phase measurements. If anyone has any suggestions to fixing this, I would really appreciate it! I'm using LabVIEW 2013 and TestStand 2013 and my scope is an NI PXI-5112.
Thanks

Hi K_Joy,
Thanks for the reply. The TestStand sequence uses the built-in IVI steps to interface with the scope via IVI drivers. The NI-SCOPE version uses TestStand Action steps with LabVIEW modules that call VI's located in the C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 2013\instr.lib\niScope. I uninstalled NI-SCOPE version 4.1 and reinstalled version 4.0.5, which seems to have resolved the problem. However, now when I launch the NI-SCOPE Soft Front Panel I get this error: "The Soft Front Panel could not launch because an error occured while trying to open an application reference." I can live without the Soft Front Panel for now, but on top of that I am now getting this error when using my DAQ module (a PXI-6221 M Series DAQ) : "Driver cannot complete the route, because the only way to make the route requires a trigger bus line, and no trigger bus has been configured in MAX for this device." I'm currently attempting a repair installation of NI-DAQmx MAX Configuration Support 9.7.5. Right now, I'm more or less just reinstalling differenct things because I don't know what else to do, so any insight you can offer into any of these problems would be greatly appreciated! I've included both the TestStand sequence and the LabVIEW VI that I used to test the IVI vs NI-SCOPE problem, in case you're interested.
Thanks

John

Hi John,
Moved to .NET Developer Forum. As noted in those other threads, there is no 64 bit version of the DAO driver. Your only option is to use ODBC or OLE DB.
No plans to create one because I don't Microsoft does NOT support their Access driver in 64 bit modes. See this Microsoft article on the history and supportability of DAO:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms810810.aspx
In this article it states:
There is no 64-bit version of the Jet Database Engine, the Jet OLEDB Driver, the Jet ODBC Drivers, or Jet DAO available. This is also documented in KB article 957570. On 64-bit versions of Windows, 32-bit Jet runs under the Windows WOW64 subsystem. For more information on WOW64, see http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa384249(VS.85).aspx. Native 64-bit applications cannot communicate with the 32-bit Jet drivers running in WOW64.
Thank you

Convert your reports to use ODBC, that should always work.
You did not say what version or anything else but it's possible that driver is no longer shipped.

The database connector "Crdb_p2bpfx.dll" could not be loaded

Hello,
I received a new laptop, and now my reports no longer work. I get the error "The database connector "Crdb_p2bpfx.dll" could not be loaded" then several others that follow. I have ODBC connections setup that test successfully and I connect to the database via other means. I am using Crystal Reports Professional version 11.5.12.1838 on Windows 7. I have seen a few other posts regarding this file, but nothing that seemed to address my particular situation. Any help would be greatly appreciated, Thank you.

No references. Only from the DB driver name it tells me you are using a report that was originally created off that Third Party DB driver. How to get around it is something we don't have any details on nor can we. Search using Google, it may tell you something..
After searching I see it is the DataFlex Driver: http://www.pfxcorp.com/faqcrystal.htm
PFXcrystal FAQ
How can Crystal Reports 9, 10, XI, XI R2 and 2008 work with PFXplus data?
Crystal Reports can access Powerflex database directly, connecting via PFXcrystal; or through ODBC, connecting via PFXodbc.
Contact DataFlex for assistance... They were an OEM Partner or had the source code. So somewhere you got those reports from their product and or package...

C:\SC\crviewer.dll could not be loaded

Moved application source code from laptop to new desktop. Crystal Reports XI SP2 is installed on new desktop. When I open VB6 project, I get message "c:\sc\crviewer.dll could not be loaded -- Continue loading projects?" This application worked on my laptop. I no longer have the laptop. Need help to resolve references. Other messages I get are: "Errors during load. Refer to c:\SC\frmViewReport.log for details." and "Errors occured during load." When I run the application, I get "Compiler error: Method or data member not found"
In frmViewReport.log I have the following line:
Line 66: Class CRVIEWERLibCtl.CRViewer of control crvReport was not a loaded control class.
Steps for Reconstruction
1. Open VB6
2. Select project to open
3. See error "c:\sc\crviewer.dll could not be loaded -- Continue
loading projects?"
Operating System: Windows XP

First will executables I create run on the end users computers?
- yes they will. But we need to be clear on what version of the runtime is the app using. CR 8.5, or CR XI? (more on that later)
Second, in Crystal Reports XI, do I even need to have crviewer.dll?
- absolutely - if you are using the RDC. There are two core components to the RDC; the craxdrt.dll and the crviewer.dll
Is there a different activeX control in Crystal Reports XI that replaces the need for crviewer.dll?
- no there is not
Third, why does the crviewer from Crystal Reports 8.5 solve the problem?
- most likely because there is a reference to that version of the viewer in the project. Go to Project menu, references and see what the projects is referencing.
Are the VB6 project references really the root cause.
- absolutely
Forth, is there some sort of problem that causes my application not to find the crviewer.dll in C:\Program Files\Common Files\Business Objects\3.0\crystalreportviewers11\ActiveXControls?
- yup. the CR XI components are not being referenced in the app. Again, go to Project, references. The two references for CR XI are; crystal ActiveX Report Viewer Library 11.0 and Crystal Reports ActiveX Designer Runtime Library 11.0. I'll bet my bottom dollar that these are not the referenced dlls...
Is the DLL not correctly registered?
- nothing to do with registering. I'm quite sure you'd be getting different errors.
Now, back to question 1. To determine the runtime your app is actually using, I recommend you use the modules utility from here:
https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100006252802008E/modules.zip
Run, your app, then start modules, get a log created. Expand the "by process" node, select your app exe. Then go to the View menu and select Details. See what CR dlls are loading. I'm sure it will all be version 8.5

Exporting to TEXT error: crdb_universe.dll could not be loaded

In Crystal Designer, a report connecting to a UNIVERSE is saved with data.
An RDC app open, previews, and exports that rpt file to various formats. No problems, except when exporting to a TEXT format.
When TEXT is used as export format, the following export error is generated:
Failed to load database information
The database DLL 'crdb_universe.dll' could not be loaded
Further debugging indicates this is related to having a subreport with no records inside the main report. Even though the report is marked as having saved data, the TEXT export format views an empty subreport as a reason to refresh the data for the subreport.
I suspect this is simply a bug and I assume nothing will be done about it, so I'll close the issue as if it was answered.
Cheers,
ido

Eric,
I posted the message on the Linux form since the description of the error refers to an issue with connecting to the DB on a Linux Machine.
You are definitely right in saying that it is a windows error, since CRXI Developer is installed on my XP computer. I guess I was a little confused as well.
Thanks,
Rick

I cannot find the crdb-dao.dll module on the 64 bit system but can find it on the 32 bit system. Can you tell me how to overcome this problem?
Thanks!
John
