This is a really hard post to read. See if you can take a bit of time to reword it, but one thing I do understand is that you are getting this error:
page header plus page footer too large for the page.
Typically, you can trust that if the error is thrown, it is true. E.g.; this is not one of those errors that says one thing, and means another. I suspect that you have some field(s) in the header(s) that grow, depending on the data. If there is too much data or the data is too long ( a text for example), the error will be thrown. To resolve this, see if placing the field(s) into a group footer / header will help.

Need alternative for activex print control using Crystal reports 2008

I have created a .Net web application (2.0/3.5 .Net framework) with crystal reports 2008.
Reports are viewed using Crystal reports 2008 activex viewer.
On click of PRINT icon in activex viewer, activex print control download prompt will be displayed on client machine.
I need to avoid downloading of activex print control on client machine. Is there any other alternative or option to use print functionality in viewer without downloading activex print control on client machine?
Or Is there any other workaround for print functionality in Crystal reports 2008 Viewer without downloading activex print control?
Note: Activex print control download prompt will not be displayed when using Crystal reprots XI Release 2 version.
Thanks,

Does anyone know which files need to be registered for the ActiveX print control? We occasionally have users who somehow break their Crystal ActiveX controls, and they can no longer see the print options. In Crystal 10, I was able to fix these issues by pushing a package which registered several files on the user's computer.

Cannot see System DSN in Crystal Reports 2008 on Vista/Windows 2008

I've been making quite a bit of progress in switching migrating our Crystal Reports 8.0 reports and apps to Crystal Reports 2008 on our Windows 2008 server, but am currently stuck on a DSN issue that I hope someone here can help me out with.
When I go to select a new ODBC data source in Crystal Reports 2008, the only ODBC data sources that show up in the list are User DSNs. These reports will be served via our intranet website, so I need to use System DSNs. The same is true on both my development computer running 64-bit Vista and the production server running Windows Server 2008.
I'm using Visual Studio 2008 (C#) for development along with Crystal Reports 2008 (not the Crystal Reports Basic that comes with Visual Studio).
How can I use a System DSN? Any help or advice will be much appreciated!

Hi, Paul;
The first thing to check is to ensure you are creating a 32 bit ODBC DSN, and not a 64 bit one. Crystal Reports 2008 is 32 bit only.

Problems with consuming SAP BW WSDL in Crystal Reports 2008

Hello,
I am trying to use the WSDL generated from the SAP BW in Crystal Reports 2008 using the XML and Web Services driver, but when I input the WSDL url Crystal does not interpret the url passed in as a WSDL url and the Services, Port and Method drop downs are blank.
If I manually input the values I get the error below from Crystal
"Logon failed.
Details: Web Service Location is invalid
WSDL Exception (at /wsdl:definitions/wsdl:portType/wsp:Policy): faultCode=INVALID_WSDL:Encountered unexpected element
'Policy'."
I know this is a valid WSDL as I have tested it with Xcelsius 2008 and I am able to get data back in Xcelsius. I found SAP note 1485601 that talks about Crystal Reports not being able to reading a WSDL generated by a SAP system.
           https://websmp230.sap-ag.de/sap/support/notes/1485601
Based on the error message from Crystal above I feel that Crystal is unable to read the WSDL URL, has anyone else encountered this issue, if so is there a possible work around.
We are running Crystal Reports 2008 V1 SP3 FP 3 and the SAP Integration Kit is also on the same service pack and patch level.
Any help or insight into the issue will be very helpful.
Thanks,
Kumar

Ingo,
I am using the "XML and Web Services" connection option in Crystal Reports, and using a HTTP WSDL.Here is a sample of how WSDL url generated by SAP BW.
http://servername:8000/sap/bc/srt/wsdl/bndg_DF6E553E117931F19C6B001560A1B616/wsdl11/allinone/ws_policy/document?sap-client=100
We have a two structure BW query (one for keyfigures and one as characteristic structure ), I know that this will cause the structure for the characteristics to show up as a single field and each element of the structure will result in a row of data, but we need the individual elements on the structure and we were hoping to get around the MDX driver limitation by using the web service connection.
The data in the Crystal Reports 2008 needs to be in a crosstab layout as shown below, but if we use the Crosstab expert the key figures are stacked one under the other and also we cannot get the labels from the KPI structure to show up on the Crystal Reports.
               Characteristic Structure
             Column1            Column2                     Column3
Label 1          KeyFigure 1          KeyFigure 2                    KeyFigure 3
Label 2          KeyFigure 1          KeyFigure 2                KeyFigure 3
Label 3          KeyFigure 1          KeyFigure 2                    KeyFigure 3
This layout is already built in a Web Template and therefore we were planning on using the WSDL to get the layout directly into Crystal report, but I keep running into the WSDL error when I try to consume the WSDL in Crystal.
Thanks,
Kumar

SAP BI 7 & Crystal Reports 2008

Hi,
I'm airly new to SAP BI world, but I have 8+ years of BI expereince. We are trying to integrate a project in SAP BI 7. We had planned to use the BEx Query Designer/Web Application Designer for query and reporting purposes. However, with the new roadmap of SAP, where they will discontinue the BEx Suite (Reports) from next year, we have decided to go for Crystal Reports 2008.
Curretnly, there are existing reports that were created in Crystal Reports x/xi I belive and they used BEx query (3.5). Our question is that if we want to use Crystal Reports 2008, how do we connect to the SAP BI (infoobjects, infoCubes, etc)? Also, should we be just be able to recompile the previous crystal templates in 2008?
I have read that Crystal reports can use BO Universe to connect to SAP BI 7 objects. However, I'm trying to get more information about that regarding recommentations/best practices, etc.
I would greatly appreciate any help!
Thanks.

Crystal Reports 2008 on My Eclipse 7.5

Hi everybody,
I'm new on Crystal Reports 2008 and have been developing web prjjects (JSPs) on My Eclipse 7.5 for some months now.
I have tried to install the software for eclipse to add reports to my JSP pages. But I can't install properly the plugin or so I think when I try to install the plugin using the Help - Software Updates - Add/Remove Software
I get an error of incompatibility.
When I simply put all the libraries on eclipse - plugins which I downloaded from the sdn site, it seems that works however when I try to create a new report on my web project the Data Source tab doesn't appear on the Crystal Reports perspective.
Can anyone please, give me some instructions on how properly install the eclipse plugin for crystal reports, or either show me hot to create a new data soruce tab or connection to my native mysql database so I can create a report for my project.
Thanks in advance.

No SAP Datasources or SAP Toolbar in Crystal Reports 2008

I cannot see the SAP toolbar or SAP datasources under "Create New Connection" in Crystal Reports 2008 SP1.
After reading many threads on SDN and reistalling Crystal Reports 2008 SP1 and the BOBJ SAP Integration Kit many times I have not been able to get this to work. I have installed the following in order:
- SAP GUI for Windows
Release: 710
Build: 1046700
Patch Level: 12
includes the BW 3.5 AddOn and BI 7 AddOn
Crystall Reports 2008 SP1 which I installed all components except Legacy XML Export.
Business Objects XI Integration Kit XI 3.1 for SAP which I installed all desktop components and all server components excluding web content and SDK. This was a local install on my PC.
I have ensured that I have only one instance of SAPLOGON.ini on my PC.
I have not applied the transports yet because I want to see the SAP datasources and SAP toolbar in Crystal Reports before I progress.
We do not have Business Objects Enterprise and I'm not sure what "BOE 3.1 Client Tools" is referred to earlier in this thread. My understanding is that in addition to SAP and BW we just need Crystal Reports 2008 and the SAP integration kit.
We are on ECC6 and BW 3.5.
I hope someone can help.

Hi Stratos,
Thanks for your response. I finally got this working. My issue was that I originally used the Crystal Reports 2008 and BOBJ Int Kit downloads from the SAP support portal. I checked with another SDN user Steven Dierick - thanks Steven - for the version of Crystal Reports 2008 he was using (version 12.0.0.683).
I downloaded Crystal Reports 2008 version 12.0.0.683 and the BOBJ Int Kit from the downloads section of sdn and it works!! SAP Toolbar, datasources and everything.
Considering I'm using Crystal Reports 2008 SP0 are there any disadvantages of not using Crystal Reports 2008 SP1?
If I'm better off using SP1 where should I download Crystal Reports 2008 SP1 and the appropriate BOBJ SAP Integration Kit?
cheers,
John

Compatability of Crystal Reports 2008 with BOE 11.5 - (.rpt output)

Hi -
I am planning an upgrade to Crystal Reports 2008 to take advantage of capabilities of Crystal Reports Viewer 2008 to modify parameters in reports (ex: posting reports to a shared drive for users to open and modify parameters).
In order to have this functionality in Crystal Reports Viewer (2008), I must create the report in Crystal Reports 2008. My question is: If I create the report in Crystal Reports 2008 and schedule the report to run on Business Objects XI.5, will the users be able to modify parameters in the report file output?
Thanks

Hello,
You need BOE XI 3.0 or later for full compatibility with Crystal Reports 2008. The parameters panel will not be displayed in any earlier version.
Also, some Crystal 2008 syntax is not supported in versions of BOE earlier than BOE XI 3.0. Use of such functions will result in report failures when run in older versions of BOE. For example the function hasvalue() is new to Crystal 2008 (checks for empty values in fields) and caused report failure in BOE XI R2 when published.

Danish character and Symbol are not displaying in crystal report 2008

I am developing a crystal report. The report displays data from database. The data is entered into database from a asp.net web form where a JavaScript Editor is used. Mainly data is saved in Danish character and also there are some emotion symbol. The web page is showing these data reading from database perfectly. But the Crystal Report is missing some Danish character as well as emotion symbol in some cases. The screen print both for web page and crystal report is shown bellow. The database field DataType is “CLOB” and using Crystal Report 2008.
Can anyone help me to get rid of this situation.
Thanks to you all.

How can I get WebAS to not start-up after restarting Windows?

I would like to not have my WebAS auto start after I reboot windows.
I found of couple of options in Configuration tool but they did not stop it.
We have a firewall product that I cannot disable (per security policy), but I can terminate it once I get the desktop. However by that time WebAS has started and encounters blocks from firewall, and once this happens, half the time it causes my jcontrol.exe to result in NIETIMEOUT messages and once THAT happens I have to uninstall and reinstall EVERYTHING.
So, how can I configure WebAS to not automatically start-up after rebooting windows? I have searched help.sap.com and looked for options in Visual Admin and Configure tools.

Easier than it seems
Go to Administrative Tools/ Services in Windows.
Change Startup type of the services to Manual.
You can just sort by the 'Log On As' Column
".\SAPServiceJ2E"
or whatever you instance name is. You can always start the service from the MMC console after this.

How to overcome the Memory leakage issue in crystal report 2008 SP2 setup.

I have developed the small windows based application tool with help of Visual studio 2008 for identify the memory consumption of crystal report object. It helps to load the crystal report objects in the memory and then released the object from the memory. The tool simply does the u201CLoading and Unloadingu201D the objects in the memory.
The tool will be started once u201CTest_MemoryConsumption.Exeu201D executed. The u201CTest_MemoryConsumption.Exeu201D consumes u201C9768 KBu201D memory before load the crystal report object in memory. It means, 9768 KB is normal memory consumption for run the tool.
Crystal report object initiated by the tool and object help to load the report in memory once the tool initiated the crystal report object. Now u201CTest_MemoryConsumption.Exeu201D consumes u201C34980 KBu201D memory during the crystal report object creation and report load process. The actual memory consumption of crystal report object is 34980u20139768=u201C25212u201DKBu201D.
The memory consumption u201C34980 KBu201D will be continued till the end of the process. The memory consumption will be reduced to u201C34652 KBu201D from u201C34980 KBu201D once report load process completed. It means, u201C328 KBu201D memory only released from the memory consumption. Tool enables the Release command for the crystal report object. But crystal report object does not respond to the command and will not release his memory consumption.
The memory consumption u201C34652 KBu201D will be stayed in the memory once job ends. If i again initiate the crystal report object then it crystal report object start to consume the memory from 34652 KB.
Database objects and crystal report objects are properly used in the tool. The object release commands properly communicated to crystal report setup. But the u201CCrystal report service pack 2u201D setup unable to respond the commands which has enabled from .Net Tool. Crystal report objects are properly initiated and disposed in the tool. But the crystal report unable to release from the server.
The memory consumption will be reduced once the server restarted or kill the application.
Crystal report 2008 and crystal report 2008 SP2 setup available in the server.
Microsoft .Net Framework 2.0 SP2, Microsoft .Net Framework 3.0 SP2 and Microsoft .Net Framework 3.5 SP1 are available in the server,
Could you please suggesst how to avoid the memory consumption keep increasing and how to release the memory consumption once the crystal object disposed???

Hi Don..
My case is different one. I hope, the problem with Run time Installation setup file (Crystal report 2008 Serivce Pack2 installer) which we installed in the server.
Let me explain with Live scenario which our client faced in crystal report 2008 Service pack2 Installer.
Our client is using a application to help to print their reports. The application is developed with Windows service.
Windows service keep on running in the server. Windows service executes the client 's crystal reports( Labels Report, Stock report) which designed for clients need and the reports will be printed from printer.
10 Same type report (Label Report) will be printed in 1 minute. Reports are not printing during non business hours. But the windows service keep on running. Memory cosumption of application will be 160 MB in business hours.
For Example, On Monday the application memory consumption starts with 160 MB. The Memory consumption will be reached 165 MB in peak business hours. Then the memory will be ended in163 MB in the End of Monday. It means, The memory consumption will be in 163 MB during the non business hours. Reports will not be printed in non business hours.
On Tuesday, the application memory consumption starts with 163 MB and it will be reached 168 MB during the peak hours. The Memory consumption will be ended in 165 MB in the end of Tuesday. The same process contiues till friday. End of friday, the memory consumption of the application will be ended with 170 MB.
Application Memory Consumption slowly increasing in the server. In 5 days, Memory consumption reached Threshold value (170 MB) of the server. Application gets hanged up once the memory consumption reached 170 MB. We got the error messages as "Attempted to read write protected memory " / "Not Enough memory for process". If we restart server / If we restart the service then memory consumption of application get reduced to 160 MB.
From the above scenario, We came know that the either the problem with Application object or the problem crystal report object. In the application, We have checked dispose methods of application objects completly. I am sure that application objects are properly disposed in the application. I hope the problem not with application objects. The problem with Crystal report objects.
Application properly communicates the dispose methods to crystal report objects. Crystal report objects are not released from
the memory.
Crystal report 2008 Serive Pack 2 setup installed in the server.
As you said, If Crystal report runtime is not released from memory then memory consumption keep increase??? In service oriented architecture application, how to unload the crystal report runtime??
Do you any fix for this kind of issue??
Willl Crystal report 2008 service pack 3 help on this issue??
