Integrate Crystal Reports XI Release 2 and VS2005 IDE

Hi,How can i integrate Crystal Reports XI R2 is directly into the Visual Studio 2005 development environments. So i can host my report in either a Web or Windows application with one of the Crystal Reports viewer controls, or use the extensive API to interact with the report programmatically at runtime. My current setup is:<blockquote>Crystal Reports XI Release 2.</blockquote><blockquote>Visual Studio 2005 Professional (I did not install the Crystal Reports .Net shipped with VS 2005.)SQ Server 2000. </blockquote>Thanks Please help.

You'll need to install the Crystal .NET that comes with VS 2005.Â You then install Crystal XI R2 over the top and not only will Crystal be integrated with the IDE, it should use the updated assemblies from R2.

Salesforce and Crystal Reports XI Release 2 Full build with Service Pack 2

Hi
I need to install 'Crystal Reports XI Release 2 Full build with Service Pack 2' (CR XI R2 SP2) on a new computer but can't find the exe/zip file used previously to do that.
The reason I need that particular version is because (as I understand it) its the version needed to interface with our Salesforce application.
I have the CRXI original disks and keycode but as I understand it no manner of patching with SPs will get me to CR XI R2 SP2.
I've tried various searches and frustratingly come up with only dead links (old BO forums and SAP forums).
Is there a live link somewhere that I can use, or will a later version do the job?
For example, alternatively, will I be able to use the CR XI R2 SP4 file instead?

Hello,
Crystal Reports XI and XI R2 are not supported on 64 bit machines. I have not heard of any plans to change this. As you've discovered - the only version of Crystal Reports that is supported on a 64 bit machine is CR.NET 2005 (v10.2), the version that ships with VS2005.
Your options are to downgrade your application to use bundled CR.NET 2005 or to deploy your CR XI R2 .NET application to a 32 bit machine.

How to integrate Crystal Report Server and J2EE platform

Hi,
It's my first time using Crystal Report, so I don't know exactly how I should start...
As what i've searched around, there is a method of generating crystal report from a JSP file. By this way, everything will be handled within the application server.
But in my project, we intend to leave the part of handling and generating report to another server, i.e. there will be 2 servers: application & report. Anyone experienced with this can guide me through? By splitting into 2 servers, that means I will need to have the Crystal Report Server right? And if doing so, from the application, how do I call the Crystal Report server?
Thanks for viewing...

You can use [Crystal Reports for Eclipse|Crystal Reports for Eclipse 2.0 Release Update 8 is Now Available!; to do exactly this. It comes with an example application for displaying reports using the CR Web Report Viewer. It's EXTREMELY easy to use and even to integrate in your existing web app. If you're using Eclipse and have the CR4E plugin installed, you can go to File > New > Crystal Reports and select Crystal Reports Web Project. This will create the CR server application for you. You can also right click on an existing web app and have Crystal Reports integrated directly into your existing app.
To do this, just right click on your web app and go to Project Properties. Then, go to Project Facets, check the box next to Crystal Reports, click Apply and then OK. It will copy all of the necessary runtimes into your lib folder and will even update your web.xml to include the stuff needed for CR. On the left, you should see Crystal Reports File Versions. Click on that and you should see the version of Crystal that was just installed into your web app along with all of the files that were copied or modified.
You could probably then create a report viewer in your other app (maybe an iframe?) that includes a link to the report in the CR Web App.
If you need more assistance with this, let me know. I'd be glad to help out as I've already played with something similar to this.

Crystal Reports XI Release 2 and Service Pack 2 upgradation

Hi,
I need your support to upgrade and migrate to Crystal Reports XI Release 2 and Service Pack 2 in my development server.
I am currently upgrading my Crystal enterprise version 9 with the Crystal Reports XI Release 2 and Service Pack 2. I have the below questions to be clarified. Appreciate if you can reply me ASAP. Thanks.
My Environment:
O/S - Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition; Version 5.2 (Build 3790); Service Pack - 1
RAM size - 1 GB
Installed software - Crystal enterprise 9
1) After successfully upgraded with the XI version, all my current user accounts and existing reports are not available in the upgraded version. Pl. suggest me, how to migrate my existing connections and all the existing reports?
2) In my server, SQL Server is not installed. But SQL Server instance (SQL Server 7.00.623) is running in my taskbar (desktop). If I stopped the SQL Server instance, the "Crystal APS" in the Crystal Configuration Manager is stopped. What information is stored in the SQL Server?
3) What is the default SQL server version bundled with Crystal Reports XI Release 2 Service Pack 2? What is the SQL server version you recommand?
4) Will the Crystal Reports XI Release 2 SP2 supports the SQL Server 7.00.623?
Regards
Sanrajesh

Hello, Sanrajesh,
You have been using Crystal Enterprise 9.0 and now you are installing Crystal Reports XI R2. Is that correct?
Crystal Reports XI R2 is just the Crystal Reports designer and runtime for development.
Crystal Reports XI R2 does not have the functionality of Crystal Enterprise. The upgrade would be Crystal Enterprise 9.0 to Business Objects Enterprise XI R2. (11.5)
A full BusinessObjects Enterprise installation will install the appropriate MS SQL Server for it's own use.
Will this be the Enterprise server or just the Development system to create an application connecting to your BusinessObjects Enterprise server?
What development language will you be programming in?
If you have BusinessObjects Enterprise installed elsewhere you only need the appropriate development components on your system and connect to the server in code.
Our BusinessEnterprise Support team would assist you in the upgrade from Crystal Enterprise 9 to Business Objects Enterprise XI R2 if that was your plan.
Then we could discuss the development requirements.

How to use Crystal Reports XI release 2 Preview with Lotus Notes Scripts ?

 Hi all, How to use Crystal Reports XI release 2 Preview with Lotus Notes 7 Scripts ? Thank's 

Hi,
we are using Lotus Notes and Crystal Reports for preview and printing reports from our Lotus Notes Applications. We use the RDC object model. For previewing the reports we export them in an pdf-file and then start the PDF Reader to show the Preview. This works fine.
But with Crystal Reports > 11 the RDC Object Model is no longer supportet, so we look for another way to preview and print our reports.
I try to preview a report build with crystal report XI release 2 in my thick client (Lotus Notes) using java reporting component JRC, this report uses an native xml file as datasource. If the datasource is saved with the report everything works fine, but otherwise I have the following error:
JRCAgent1 detected an exception: javax.xml.namespace.QName: method getPrefix()Ljava/lang/String; not found
I also tried the .jars from Crystal4Eclipse. Doesn't work. When I use Eclipse to view the report everything works fine. The class QName exitsts in the jaxrpc.jar and in the xbean.jar, but only in the xbean.jar a Methode getPrefix exists.
This is what we tried:
Works fine with RDC. Doesn't work with JRC until now.
Did this help you ?
Perhaps you con help me with the JRC, because I'm a java newbee so any ideas could be helpful.

Integrate Crystal Reports 2008 in Lotus Notes 8.x

We allready use Crystal Reports 2008 with Lotus Notes 8.x trough NotesSQL 8.5. This works fine.
Now we want integrate Crystal Reports 2008 directly in Lotus Notes 8.x. so that the user can start reports directly from his Lotus Notes Application. Of course, data has to be retrieved in realtime (not with data stored in the report) and he should be able to pass parameters from a lotus notes form.
All informations we found are quit old (Crystal Reports 8.5 and Lotus Notes R5). Does anyone has an idea how to start and where to find new documentations? Is there maybe even a sample application availabl?
Any help is welcome!

Upgrading Crystal Reports XI Release 2 to CR 2008: Where is ReportDocument

I am attempting to upgrade our .NET Crystal Reports code from Crystal Reports XI Release 2 on Visual Studio 2005 SP1 to Crystal Reports 2008 on the same compiler. We use the ReportDocument interface and I can't seem to find it in the new Crystal Reports 4.0 managed directory. Here's the top of the .header file that worked in the old environment:
#using <CrystalDecisions.Shared.dll>
#using <CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.dll>
#using <CrystalDecisions.Enterprise.InfoStore.dll>
using namespace CrystalDecisions::Shared;
using namespace CrystalDecisions::CrystalReports::Engine;
With that code in place, I get compiler errors indicating that the packages can't be found:
c:\dev\sources\videoview_6_6\video\nextlink\reportfaxservice\NReportFaxServiceImpl.h(13) : fatal error C1107: could not find assembly 'CrystalDecisions.Shared.dll': please specify the assembly search path using /AI or by setting the LIBPATH
environment variable
If I comment out the lines as follows and add in the ReportDefModel (the only dll that appears to have a ReportDocument symbol):
// #using <CrystalDecisions.Shared.dll>
// #using <CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.dll>
#using <CrystalDecisions.Enterprise.InfoStore.dll>
#using <CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.ReportDefModel.dll>
// using namespace CrystalDecisions::Shared;
// using namespace CrystalDecisions::CrystalReports::Engine;
using namespace CrystalDecisions::ReportAppServer::ReportDefModel;
Then, I get compiler errors like this:
NReportFaxServiceImpl.cpp(306) : error C2039: 'Close' : is not a member of 'CrystalDecisions::ReportAppServer::ReportDefModel::ReportDocument'
 c:\dev\businessobjects\common\4.0\managed\crystaldecisions.reportappserver.reportdefmodel.dll : see declaration of 'CrystalDecisions::ReportAppServer::ReportDefModel::ReportDocument'
NReportFaxServiceImpl.cpp(941) : error C2039: 'Load' : is not a member of 'CrystalDecisions::ReportAppServer::ReportDefModel::ReportDocument'

NReportFaxServiceImpl.cpp(950) : error C2039: 'SetParameterValue' : is not a member of 'CrystalDecisions::ReportAppServer::ReportDefModel::ReportDocument'
 c:\dev\businessobjects\common\4.0\managed\crystaldecisions.reportappserver.reportdefmodel.dll : see declaration of 'CrystalDecisions::ReportAppServer::ReportDefModel::ReportDocument'
NReportFaxServiceImpl.cpp(974) : error C2039: 'ExportToDisk' : is not a member of 'CrystalDecisions::ReportAppServer::ReportDefModel::ReportDocument'
 c:\dev\businessobjects\common\4.0\managed\crystaldecisions.reportappserver.reportdefmodel.dll : see declaration of 'CrystalDecisions::ReportAppServer::ReportDefModel::ReportDocument'
Here's line 306 of that source file, for example:
NReportFaxServiceImpl::~NReportFaxServiceImpl()
 DESTLOG( LOG_NREPORTSERVER, "NReportFaxServiceImpl::~NReportFaxServiceImpl", "[[[]]]" );
 RFaxCloseServerHandle( _hRightFaxServer );
 // close all the report documents
 IDictionaryEnumerator^ enumReportDocuments = _mapReportDocuments->GetEnumerator();
 while( enumReportDocuments->MoveNext() )
 Object^ reportName = enumReportDocuments->Key;
 ReportDocument^ crReportDocument = dynamic_cast<ReportDocument^>(enumReportDocuments->Value);
/* line 306 */ crReportDocument->Close();
Can anyone advise me of the correct #using directive to specify to pull in the ReportDocument object?
Thanks.

Okay, we seem to be getting somewhere. I switched the /AI directive to point to the managed/dotnet2 directory, but then I get the following warning:
c:\dev\sources\videoview_6_6\video\nextlink\reportfaxservice\NReportFaxServiceImpl.h(15) : fatal error C1107: could not find assembly 'CrystalDecisions.Enterprise.InfoStore.dll': please specify the assembly search path using /AI or by setting the LIBPATH environment variable
NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'c:\dev\VisualStudio\VC\bin\cl.EXE' : return code '0x2'
So, I commented out the following line in the header:
#using <CrystalDecisions.Enterprise.InfoStore.dll>
Then, I get the following error when I try to make the project:
NReportFaxServiceImpl.cpp(982) : error C3624: 'System::Drawing::Printing::PrinterSettings': use of this type requires a reference to assembly 'System.Drawing'
NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'c:\dev\VisualStudio\VC\bin\cl.EXE' : return code '0x2'
Here is line 982:
 crReportDocument->PrintToPrinter(1, false, 0, 0);
So, I'm assuming that maybe I need to provide an assembly search path to both the managed and the managed/dotnet2 directories. Is that correct? If so, is order dependent between those two /AI directives.
Thanks.

Crystal Reports XI to Crystal Reports XI Release 2

Is there an SR update to go from Crystal Reports XI to Release 2? Or is it essentially a whole other version of the software and must be purchased seperately?
Can Crystal Reports XI Release 2, save files back to Crystal Reports XI version?
I'm supporting two applications that utilize Crystal Reports as its reporting engine. Problem is that one uses Crystal Reports XI and the other Release 2.

Hi Wenin,
We can upgrade from Crystal XI to Crystal XI R2.
We need to have the set up or download of Cr Xi R2 enter the key and run the Cr Xi r2 application.
If we have requirement to run multiple applications one single machine then we can install.
Else it is recommended to have one version of crystal on client machine.
Bcoz both versions will have same registry keys and .dll files .
So, be aware and can run the 2 crystal applications easily.
Thanks,
Naveen.

Error in crystal report XI release 2 in Vista OS

Post Author: cormalado
CA Forum: General
Hi All,
I am a Newbie.......
I have written an application where it displays the report.
I have two test machines, "Machine 1" in which crystal reports XI release 2 is installed and "Machine 2" where it is not installed.
Now when I run the application in the machine where CR11 is installed,it runs perfectly fine.(It has XP Operating System)
Inorder to make the application run on machine 2 where CR11 is not installed.(It has Vista Operating System) what should i do. (I don't want to install CR11 there.)
Now in order to run in the Vista machine, I need to register the DLL's which are made used to run and display the report as in Machine 1.
I got these DLL's from machine 1 where XP is installed which i felt are necessary to display the report.....correct me if I am missing something.
craxdrt.dllcrdb_ado.dllcrqe.dllcrtslv.dllcrviewer.dllcrxf_rtf.dllExportModeller.dllquerybuilder.dllu2ddisk.dllu2ftext.dllufmanager.dll
Now how should i register these.....i tries Regsvr32.exe to register, but was able to register only few and rest were displaying an error as
"LoadLibrary failed "    or    "Entrypoint not found".
I think there might be some dependencies for the DLL's mentioned above.
I got the above mentioned list of DLL's from CR9 since these DLL's were made used in CR9 with some different name, when i ran the application in Vista machine with these DLL's I was able to run without any problems.
Now my question is:
Are these the only DLL's which are made used to display the report in Machine 2 where Vista is installed and if not what are the other dll's.
And where shoud these be residing (Is it in system32 folder or ..\Program Files\Common Files\..... ?) and how should I register these DLL's ? (i.e the order of registering them.)
Any sugesstion would greatly be accepted.   Kindly help me.

Try psoting technical information.
You wrote an application, but you won't bother to say what language/environment??? Your first application, or first time you've asked for technical support?
And what edition of CR XI do you have, and is it CR XI SR2?
The Developer edition is required for what you are asking, and you can check the help file within for the file dependencies.
Might be a compatability issue, I think SR2 is required.

Export To PDF in CRYSTAL REPORT XI Release 2

I am using Crystal report XI release 2.
Font Size is decreasing when I am exporting Crystal Report to PDF.
It was working fine previously but i don't know what messed it up. Please help.

Hi,
Looks like you already read the steps needed to resolve this from other places. Here it is again incase you miss any part, make sure you follow it exactly.
Set the resolution of the default printer of the local computer experiencing the issue to 1200 DPI. Most printers have a default setting of 600 DPI.
Create two registry keys to prevent the crxf_pdf.dll from decreasing in font size.
Click Start > Run. Type "regedit". The Registry Editor appears.
Create the following keys for Crystal Reports XI Release 2 with the defined values:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Business Objects\Suite 11.5\Crystal Reports\Export\PDF\ForceLargerFonts
Type: DWORD
Recognized Values: 0,1
Default Value: 1
Creation Method: manual
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Business Objects\Suite 11.5\Crystal Reports\Export\PDF\ForceLargerFonts
Type: DWORD
Recognized Values: 0,1
Default Value: 1
Creation Method: manual
Set both registry key values to 1 to turn them on.
Restart the Crystal Reports Page, Job and Cache Servers
Also help if you upgrade your Adobe Reder to version 8 or higher. Let me know if it helps.

Crystal reports XI Release 2 constantly configuring after SP4 installed

I had this issue before and bookmarked it before SAP bought businessobjects and now that solution forum thread no longer exists. But there is some problem with updating the registry when installing sp2 or Sp4 on Crystal Reports XI 2.
After the successfull install of SP4 upon restarting the application I receive the following messages:
"Please wait while windows configures Crystal Reports XI Release 2"
"Server Busy... switch... Retry"
Every time I start Crystal Reports I have to clear these annoying messages before I can use the application. Does anyone on this forum recall how to fix this nagging issue? I recall there is some registry hack to perform that remedies this issue but I don't remember the specifics. Thanks!!!

not sure if any one tried this, but it worked for me with Xi/R2, SP5 on a Win2003 std server.
the event log showed the following:
'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Business Objects\Suite 11.5\Crystal Reports\Keycodes\CR Ent\Serial' does not exist.
the entire "CR Ent" key was missing. after adding this key and string value "Serial", I entered my registration code. the configurng process did run one more time but very quickly this time.
the next time I launched Xi it did ask me again for my registration number, but since this point the application starts up just fine.
hope this helps someone else.

Crystal Report Xi Release 2 upgrade

I have been tryig to upgrade my Crystal reports XI Release 2 with the latest service paks, but when i try to apply any they say that i need at least service pak 2. I try to install service pak 2 and it tells me that there. Another version of this product is already installed.

In the Addd/remove on the control panel there is a Crystal Reports XI Release 2. Im confused.. this is waht i want to upgrade why woudl i remove it? The version that is installed is 11.5.0.31327
This all started when i wanted to make a webapp displaya crstyal report and the follwoing error happend. The most popular fix seemed to be to upgarded to service pak 4 for crystal, but to get there i need service pak 2,3 but i cant install. The error i was receiving is listed below.

Crystal Reports XI Release 2 SP4 RDC Merge Module

I've been trying to find the RDC Merge module for Crystal Reports XI Release 2 SP4 and cannot find it. I found a link - https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100009381702008E/crxir2sp4_rdc_mm.zip - but when I navigate there I get an error "Error Message - ObjectID not existant". Does anyone know where I can get this from?

I couldnt find the SP4 RDC however there is a crxir2_fp55_rdc_mm.zip released on 06/07/2009, which can be found at

Need help with Updating Crystal Reports XI Release 2.

I had to reload my Crystal Reports XI Release 2 and I am trying to get the software up to date. I looked for Service Pack 1 Incremental on the Downloads and it is not available. I tried downloading Service Pack 2 Incremental and it said I need Service Pack 1. Is there another alternative step that I need to take? When I tried doing the Service Pack 2 Full Build, I had to uninstall and reinstall. Then I was not able to get to the ODBC drivers that I needed to export files. Please advise to fix my issue.
Thanks,
Julie

Hi Julie,
Download Cr SP 4 full build and then download the [DataDirect ODBC|https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100008666562008E/cr_datadirect53_win32.zip] drivers.

https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100013876392008E/crxir2win_sp5.exe
https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100015859952009E/crxir2win_sp6.exe
Full builds require an uninstall first much much easier than updating incrementally.
Thank you
Don
