How to tell that Crystal Report 13.0 for VS 2010 installed on target mach

Hi,
I developed Windows application that has Crystal Report functionality.
The final step is distribution application development.
I am using Install Shield 2011 to build Basic MSI project.
What is the best registry key value I can use to identify the right version of Crystal Report redistributable has been already installed on target machine?
I think I am going to use one of the key values that located under HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CrystalReports13.
But which one?
Also where can I get the minimum requirements when it comes to windows operating systems that supports Crystall Report 13.0 redistributable?
Thank you.

I installed CRRuntime_32bit_13.msi on Windows XP SP 3 machine, which is my testing production machine.
1. Under Add and Remove programs there is only one entry
-SAP Crystal Reports runtime engine for .NET Framework 4(32-bit)
-SAP Crystal Reports, version for Visual Studio 2010 has not been installed because I think there is no Visual Studio 2010 installed on the target machine.
2. During the installation registry keys have been created
HKLM\SOFTWARE\SAP Business Objects\Crystal Reports for .NET Framework 4.0
These key has another 9 sub keys I am not going to list here.
3. After I manually uninstall runtime all registry keys have been deleted except:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\SAP Business Objects\Crystal Reports for .NET Framework 4.0\Report Application Server
All assemblies from GAC have been uninstalled
win32_x86 folder has been uninstalled from
C:\Program Files\SAP BusinessObjects\Crystal Reports for .NET Framework 4.0\Common\SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0
I hope this info will help to safe your development time.
Happy programming

CRVS 2010 beta - Crystal Reports Beta 2 for VS 2010 fails to start

Right after I install it. I try to add a Crystal Reports item to my project and get an error indicating that the temporary report (.rpt) file can not be oppened. When I click OK I get a seccond error message "invalid key".
I tried reinstalling Crystal Reports and then Visual Studio with out success. This was working on the same laptop when using Vista, now I have Windows 7. But on my Windows 7 PC works ok.
Please help

Have you search forums for possible solutions before posting?
Typically this is caused by not setting/using the 4.0 framework ( not the client version ) or instlaling with DEP and UAC disabled.
Make the changes to security and then do a repair install.
Thank you

How do I make Crystal report viewer navigation icons display

Visual Studio 8 accessing Crystal Reports Server 11 r2 using development web server.
Report renders just fine in viewer but none of the viewer icons seem to find their image - all appear as X.
Debugging shows the src for icons is "this.src='/crystalreportviewers11/images/toolbar/(gif name)" such as "this.src='/crystalreportviewers11/images/toolbar/export_over.gif'". I have such a directory\file in c:\program files\common files\business objects\3.0\crystalreportviewers11\images\toolbar\export_over.gif .
perhaps related or a different problem: I get java script error when trying to print or export the rendered report: "Microsoft JScript runtime error: Object doesn't support this action" pointing to line: print = false;crystal_postback="<input type='hidden' name='__EVENTTARGET' value='myCrystalReportViewer'><input type='hidden' name='__EVENTARGUMENT' value='export'><input type='hidden' name='__LASTFOCUS' value=''><input type='hidden' name='__VIEWSTATE' etc.
I see that java src is in the same neighborhood as the missing images: "JavaScript" src="/crystalreportviewers11/js/export.js" and using same hierarchy as above, I find this java file.
Regarding missing images, how do I make viewer see these? Where do I copy the images or how do I point the viewer to where they are?

Out of the frying pan and into the fire... I offer the following for other novices like myself and hope that experts will correct any misconceptions.
My Crystal viewer control still does not display icons or print and now behaves badly when trying to display a report. I would appreciate any advice. Details follow.
We have a Crystal Reports Server XI r 2. I obtained the installation disks from tech support to install client tools on my development workstation. These disks installed version 11.0.3300 . After some research I have come to believe the following:
Crystal Reports XI r1 = 11.0 = Managed 3.0
Crystal Reports XI r2 = 11.5 = Managed 3.5
Crystal Reports 2008 = 12 = Managed 4.0
So I actually installed release one client tools. The disks I received were the only installation disks we have, but I believe the server was updated to release 2 via web. I could not find anywhere on web where I could download the release 2 client tools nor could I find any executable on server installation of release 2 to install the client tools to the development workstation.
However, I also hold a license to the full blown BOE server at XI r2 release I installed the client tools from these disks to my development workstation. This installed version 11.5.3300 . Based on other messages, I believe I need to get to 11.5.3700, but I am lost as to how to get this version. The differences in versions may be the sole cause of my remaining problems, but I doubt it.
To make sure I had no conflicts on development workstation, I removed all vestiges of Visual Studio and Crystal and then reinstalled VS2008, then Crystal designer, then Crystal Server client tools. I also installed all service packs for these. Tech Support tells me Crystal Reports Server has all service packs installed. I noticed that the release one toolset installation created needed .dll's in both a program files\business objects\common folder and a program files\common\business objects folder, but the release two installation created only the former, not the latter - don't know if that matters.
I had a Crystal viewer app at version 10.5 that worked fine for all reports except those that use the Server business view layer. I am creating a new web version that can handle all Crystal reports including those using business view layer. I am following the BOE SDK tutorial for creating a viewer. I am binding to Crystal Viewer with an infoObject cast as report per one of the tutoral ways of binding. (I wonder if I need to use a different kind of binding though the tutoral indicates this should work.)
When I was using release 1 tools with release 2 server, the report would render just fine but the navigation icons appeared as X's and the print/export buttons resulted in error of "Microsoft JScript runtime error: Object doesn't support this action".
Per suggestions, I got everything in sync (to version 11.5.3300 which is only release two version I have available) - all references, viewer control, image handler. I did have to change the image handler type to "CrystalImageHandler.aspx" type="CrystalDecisions.Web.CrystalImageHandlerPage, to get a successful build because type CrystalImageHandler (no "page" suffix) is not defined in Crystal Decisions.Web version 11.5.3300, I also had to add a reference to CrystalDecisions.Enterprise,PlugInManager for the constant CePictureState.cePictureThumbnail to be defined. This reference was not necessary with version 1 toolset and not mentioned in tutoral. Now I have the following symptoms:
1. When I bind to a very simple .rpt file stored in filing system of my workstation (displays a constant), the report will render in viewer but the navigation icons are still X's and print/export buttons still get JScript error message.
2. When I bind to this same simple report copied into Server folder using an infoObject cast as report (which used to render fine with release one client tools), I get the message: "The Page Server you are trying to connect to is not accessible. Please contact your system administrator." This same report in Server folder runs fine using my Crystal Designer client. I am able to display other attributes of the report object so I know I have a good report object. So, my upgrade to 11.5.3300 has now additionally broken the report render.
I would love to get to version 11.5.3700 and see what is still broken (I suspect there will still be some), but haven't a clue how to get this version of client tools. Upgrading server to 2008 is not an option. Downgrading Visual Studio to an earlier release is an option if VS2008 is contributing to the problem. If I have to downgrade VS, what release is recommended?
Any advice about any of these problems is welcome!

How to Call a Crystal Report from Form 6i?

Dear All,
Can anybody tell me how to call a crystal report, designed using Crystal Report 9, in form 6i? I tried one solution by using the host command but it was not working properly. The code I was tried is like:
     f_name varchar2(240);
     f_name :='C:\Program Files\Crystal Decisions\Crystal Reports 9\crw32.exe D:\Form16\Form16_Rep\bin\Debug\Form_16_character_emp.rpt';
               host(f_name);
This open the crystal report in design view. So how we call a report which run automatically like in .Net. How to pass the connection info of the database schema?
Thanks & Regards
Sunil

Hi
First see the built in run_product function.
You can create a parameter list, add the
"MAXIMIZE" paramter in it and then call your
report with run_product passing your parameter list in it.
hence the called report will be maximized.

How to get a Crystal report as an iview in Portal

Hi,
Please let me know how to get a crystal report to Portal.
Regards,
Pradeep

Hi,
I used URL iview option to get the crystal report in portal and am able to view it. Thank you all for your inputs.
But as of now SSO is not configured between BOE and BI system, so when i click on URL iview initially it asks me for credentials to BOE InfoView and after entering that it again asks for BI login as the data has to be picked from BI server.
We are going to configure SSO mean while i just want to know whether it is possible to pass the id and passw as parameters to this url iview, if so what are the parameter id's i need to maintain to pass id and passw.
Let me know on this.
Regards,
Pradeep

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).

How to publish a Crystal Report in Business One

Hi
Please can anyone tell me how I publish a Crystal report (which is now inbuilt in SAP B1) so it is available to all users? I have full administrator/manager user rights. I have so far created the report and saved it to my SAP server machine on it's C:drive.
Thank you very much for any help and info.
Matt

Hi, I worked out how to do it. I had to first enable the Crystal Add on from within SAP and then open the Crystal Reports Administration menu under Administration and then select "Manage Crystal Reports". From there you can browse to the report you have created and select the module for where you want it to appear under in SAP.

How Can I call Crystal report from R3?

Hi experts,
How Can I call Crystal report from R3?

Hi Bill,
Can you please be specific and could you please provide the steps

Crystal Report Viewer integration with Sharepoint 2010

We had a requirement in our project to view crystal report off an hyper link embedded into sharepoint web part developed using ASP .NET. The report accepted few parameters from the sharepoint page and passed those on to the SQL server to retrive data and
display the data in the report. The challenge was to open the report in the web browser.
The first difficulty was to find the right control to use, the report viewer tool that comes with Visual Studio 2010 is not the right one to use to view Crystal reports, I realised this after spending half a day trying to figure out why wouldn't the report
load. I then downloaded the Crystal Report Viewer for VS 2010 Standard from http://www.businessobjects.com/jump/xi/crvs2010/us2_default.asp. After you install this, you get the crystal report viewer in your toolbar. All you have to do is drag and drop it on
to the web part and configure it to use your report. If any one needs help with this let me know I will show how to do that.
So far so good. The biggest challenge was to deploy this on to the production server which took better part of 3 days to figure out how its done. If you deploy the WSP file as it is expecting that the crystal DLLs would be embedded in it then be ready to
expect a rude shock because it isn't. Here are the steps -
1. Deploy the WSP to the sharepoint server
2. Install the crystal dlls used in the project (CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.dll, CrystalDecisions.ReportSource.dll, CrystalDecisions.Shared.dll, CrystalDecisions.Web.dll) into the GAC using GacUtil command
3. Add following entries to Web.Config file (C:\inetpub\wwwroot\wss\VirtualDirectories\80\web.congif)
    <SafeControl Assembly="CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine, Version=13.0.2000.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=692fbea5521e1304" Namespace="CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine" TypeName="*" Safe="True" SafeAgainstScript="False"
/>
      <SafeControl Assembly="CrystalDecisions.ReportSource, Version=13.0.2000.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=692fbea5521e1304" Namespace="CrystalDecisions.ReportSource" TypeName="*" Safe="True" SafeAgainstScript="False" />
      <SafeControl Assembly="CrystalDecisions.Shared, Version=13.0.2000.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=692fbea5521e1304" Namespace="CrystalDecisions.Shared" TypeName="*" Safe="True" SafeAgainstScript="False" />
      <SafeControl Assembly="CrystalDecisions.Web, Version=13.0.2000.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=692fbea5521e1304" Namespace="CrystalDecisions.Web" TypeName="*" Safe="True" SafeAgainstScript="False" />
4. Install crystal redistributable package which can be downloaded from http://www.businessobjects.com/jump/xi/crvs2010/us2_default.asp (
SAP Crystal Reports runtime engine for .NET Framework 4 (64-bit))
5. Copy aspnet_client folder from C:\>inetpub\wwwroot and overwrite it on C:\>inetpub\wwwroot\wss\VirtualDirectories\80
And we are done. Fingers crossed it should all work.

Hi Mahesh,
How are you loading the report in your webpart? This is what I have done. I have tried to explain what I am doing in the program comments. Hope this helps. Good luck.
                SPSite mySite = new SPSite(SPContext.Current.Site.Url.ToString());
                SPWeb thisSite = mySite.OpenWeb();
                // Writing to event log after every step in debug mode so that you get to know if there was a failure what step the failure occured after.
                EventLog.WriteEntry("Reports", "Inside PAge Load ", EventLogEntryType.Error);
                SPFolder folder = thisSite.GetFolder("Reports");

Total No of pages different in report printed using Crystal Report XI R2 vs SAP Crystal Reports, developer version for Microsoft Visual Studio (File Version 13.8)

Currently in our application, we are using Crystal Report XI R2 for generating the reports. We are in the process of upgrading the Crystal Report to SAP Crystal Reports, developer version for Microsoft Visual Studio (File Version 13.8). I updated that on my machine and all the reports work fine. I didn't have to modify any of the reports.
However when comparing the reports, we found that there are few reports on which the total no. of pages differ from the report displayed using Crystal Report XI R2 vs SAP Crystal Reports, developer version for Microsoft Visual Studio (File Version 13.8). Comparing the reports, it looks all the data that were fit on one page earlier with version XI R2 doesn't fit on the same page with version 13.8, thereby increasing the page counts.
The fonts, page margins everything set on report itself. Nothing being set in the code.
Both the application is using the same report that is pulling the data from the same database. Our application is a web application.
Any suggestion, why this is happening.
Thanks.
Sanjay

I am not sure what is being compared here?
CRXI R2 designer to CRVS?
CR XI R2 in some version of .NET to CRVS?
CR XI R2 using RDC SDK to CRVS?
Also, is this happening on your development computer or after you deploy?
If you compare the the "Page setup" options dialog between reports that work and those that do not work, do you see any difference?
Is this a web or a win app?
Are you seeing the same issue when viewing and exporting - say export to PDF?
What is the printer driver used and it's version?

Missing Crystal reports License Key for (CrystalReports11_5_NET_2005.msi)

Is there any way to retrieve a missing Crystal reports license key from a server install?
we are currently in the process of relocating a server app that has (CrystalReports11_5_NET_2005.msi) installed and the License key for the product is missing... Any help would be good as the project to relocate "Interplan" the application that uses Crystal reports has halted due to the missing License key...

Hi,
As up to my best knowledge it is not possible to get the product key from server install.
You could get from the development box where the product is installed.
If you have 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,
Amit
