Invalid Export Options error

Post Author: Kit
CA Forum: .NET
Why would an export to html, which has for many months performed correctly, suddenly start producing the "Invalid export options" error?Our application is a Microsoft Dynamics GP third party add-on, developed in Dexterity ( The MS Dynamics GP native development tool) and using a home-grown .NET component to export reports to HTML.In our scenario we have a production environment where three reports are produced each evening, exported to HTML, and then published via FTP. Crystal 10 is installed on the server. This has worked well for a long time but lately one or more of the three reports have failed each time, with a "Invalid export options" error.The failure is not consistent - for example one time the first two reports were successful, but the third failed, but the next time the first two both failed, whereas the third was succesful.Ou first thought was that the error could be caused by a bad report setup within the Dexterity side of the application, however we have investigated this possibility and debugged the application and can find no likely cause there.Here's the error;CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.InvalidArgumentException: Invalid export options. at CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.EngineExceptionUtils.DoThrowException(String message, EngineExceptionErrorID id) at CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ExceptionThrower.ThrowEngineException(String messageID, EngineExceptionErrorID id) at CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.HTMLExporter.GetPage(Boolean bSeparatePages, Boolean bDHTML, Int32 startPage, Int32 endPage) at CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.HTMLExporter.Export() at CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.FormatEngine.Export(ExportRequestContext reqContext) at CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument.Export(ExportOptions options) at KIT.Crystal.RunReport()" KIT.Crystal.RunReport is from our component, and contains the following code rptDoc = SetupRptDoc(); // Set the options for saving the exported file to disk destOpts = new DiskFileDestinationOptions(); destOpts.DiskFileName = outputFilename; expOpts = new ExportOptions(); expOpts.DestinationOptions = destOpts; // Set the exporting information expOpts.ExportDestinationType = ExportDestinationType.DiskFile; switch (exportFormat) { case ExportFormatEnum.CRS: expOpts.ExportFormatType = ExportFormatType.CrystalReport; break; case ExportFormatEnum.DOC: expOpts.ExportFormatType = ExportFormatType.WordForWindows; break; case ExportFormatEnum.HTML: htmlOpts = ExportOptions.CreateHTMLFormatOptions(); htmlOpts.HTMLBaseFolderName = new FileInfo(_outputFilename).DirectoryName; htmlOpts.HTMLFileName = new FileInfo(_outputFilename).Name; htmlOpts.HTMLEnableSeparatedPages = false; htmlOpts.HTMLHasPageNavigator = false; expOpts.ExportFormatOptions = htmlOpts; expOpts.ExportFormatType = ExportFormatType.HTML40; break; case ExportFormatEnum.RTF: expOpts.ExportFormatType = ExportFormatType.RichText; break; case ExportFormatEnum.XLS: expOpts.ExportFormatType = ExportFormatType.Excel; break; case ExportFormatEnum.PDF: default: expOpts.ExportFormatType = ExportFormatType.PortableDocFormat; break; } //Export the report rptDoc.Export(expOpts);

HTML40 - Invalid Export Options

We have moved our .net application from Crystal 10 to Crystal 11.5. The version of the dlls is now 11.5.3700.0.
We now get an error 'invalid export option'.
Our reports export to HTML40 format.

Problem does not occur in the designer, only at run-time.

Invalid Export Options RAS SDKs

Hi All,
As given in post Re: XML Export - Cannot select format CR2008 SP2 We are using RAS sdks and given sample code but still we are gettting same error i.e. Invalid Export Options.
Is this also scheduled to be fixed in SP3.
Thanks,

Hi, Stanly;
The RAS code given in that post should work. Which service pack level and version of Crystal Reports are you using?
Can you show the code you are using?

"Invalid Export Option" Crystal 2008 SP3, Windows 7, Outlook 2010 (32 bit)

We have one client reporting that they get "Invalid Export Option" whenever they try to email a report. We used the supplied code with VS 2008 to implement the ability to view, print, export, and email reports. Our Windows 7 computers all work without issue, except for the one with 64 bit Outlook (which is a known issue), so I'm guessing this is security/SPAM protection at the client, but it doesn't affect any of their XP computers.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

Thank you for the info, much better.
Have them download the trial version of CR 2008, they will have to do a Repair install of your app and CR runtime when they uninstall the trial version. Then see if they can export from the Designer.
Or if you prefer they not have access to the designer then use ProcessMonitor and follow along as they try to export, look for access Denied entries. I assume all other export formats work? Most have a pop up also to see if it's a CR issue.
There are few options for security settings in Outlook itself to not prompt but like you say it appears they are not even getting that far. Could be the pop up is behind your app, I've seen this happen before.
I did a google search and found quite a few posts on this issue. You may want to search also to see if something will help your user to get around this issue.
Possibly adding your app EXE to the trusted list in their Anti-virus software may help also. And if you haven't done so look in the various logs in their AV and Firewall and even Event Viewer to see if it captures and access denied errors.
Thanks

Apex 3.1.2.00.02 creates invalid export file (that gives ORA-20001 error)

Hi
I want to let you know, that sometimes APEX 3.1.2.00.0 creates invalid export file.
Older apex 3.0 created correct file.
For example: our application has page button, where "Optional URL Redirect" is:
Page: &APP_PAGE_ID.
Request: FLOW_XMLP_OUTPUT_R11531800061044170_et
If we export application into file f110.sql and try to import it to the same workspace on the same server, we get error:
{color:#0000ff}ORA-20001: GET_BLOCK Error. ORA-20001: Execution of the statement was unsuccessful. ORA-06550: line 28, column 111: PLS-00103: Encountered the symbol "_" when expecting one of the following: ) , * & | = - + < / > at in is mod remainder not rem => .. <an exponent (**)> <> or != or ~= >= <= <> and or like LIKE2_ LIKE4_ LIKEC_ as between from using || multiset member SUBMULTISET_ The symbol &a

If we exported the same application in apex 3.0, this section was correct:
{color:#0000ff}wwv_flow_api.create_page_branch(
p_id=>11762805016890347 + wwv_flow_api.g_id_offset,
p_flow_id=> wwv_flow.g_flow_id,

Best Regards,
Tõnu

Thanks for pointing that out. We'll fix it. It does appear though, that in 3.0, the offset would not be added to the number part of the request value, so if you installed the application as a different application ID or into a different workspace, the request would have failed.

Error: Invalid Export dll when exporting to Excel from VB,NET 2008

Version: Crystal Report 2008
Front End: Visual Basic 2008
Hello,
I am trying to export a report to Microsoft Excel [2003] when I get the error "Error in File_Temp......Invalid Export dll or export format".
from the Windows Form Viewer.
I have looked in C:\Program Files\Common Files\Business Objects\3.0\bin and found crxf_xls.dll and crxf_xls_res_en.dll, but am not sure if these dlls' are the error source.
Do these dll files need to be reregistered? Re-installation hasn't worked.
Thanks

Getting Error 'Invalid export DLL or export format'

Hi, we are getting the above error when exporting to Excel from Crystal Reports. Although the export is via one of our products, the process of exporting the report is controlled by the Crystal Report viewer which we have no control over.
Basic system details are as follows:
Operating system : - Windows Server 2003 R2 Service pack 2
Crystal Reports : - Crystal Reports Developer version 12.0.0.683, product type : Full
Problem summary : - When exporting a report, exporting to excel produces an error 'Invalid export DLL or export format'.
We have tried the following so far, obviously to no avail:

You need to split your data and create (at least 5) worksheet targets.
For example if you have a ROW_NUMBER column you can use for instance a
Conditional Split for something like:
ROW_NUMBER % 5 == 0 for Case 1 (excel 1)
ROW_NUMBER % 5 == 1 for Case 2 (excel 2)
ROW_NUMBER % 5 == 2 for Case 3 (excel 3)
ROW_NUMBER % 5 == 3 for Case 4 (excel 4)
ROW_NUMBER % 5 == 4 for Case 5 (excel 5)

Download Helper, even with paid converter upgrade, gives "Invalid Capture File" errors and will not record audio, with "File Creation Error - Unable to rename/copy audio file" Error.

Download Helper Screen Capture worked to capture video if the default "no audio" option is active. But, no audio. The "speakers" or "microphone" audio options are confusing....the audio to be captured is from the video, so what do you choose? With either "speakers" or "microphone" selected, the captured file has poor audio and no video. Re-capture efforts (speakers) get "Invalid capture file error" and "File Creation error- Unable to rename/copy audio file"
The paid upgrade of "Converter" doesn't work.
Instructive documentation - not very good.
Suggestions - Need time delay between initiation of "Record" and starting the video to be recorded.
Could use timer tracking of the record process.
Are there operating system limitations? (Have Windows XP Pro)

That is an issue for the developer of that Download Helper.

Invalid export DLL or export format" with Crystal Reports 2008 to Excel xls

We are experiencing the same issue as reported in the sticky thread. I answered in that thread, but thought that I woudl open a new thread to keep track of this issue. I can give you the responses to your questions you have requested in that thread:

I've included this sticky because we are seeing many posts in this forum regarding the error Invalid export DLL or export format when exporting to Excel and RTF in .NET applications using the Crystal Reports 2008 .NET SDK.
Issue
Exporting a Crystal Report to Excel or RTF format
.NET application using the Crystal Reports 2008 runtime (version 12.0)
error Invalid export DLL or export format
We've been doing some testing in-house and haven't reproduced this behavior. In order to figure this issue out we will need your help. If you are getting this error please reply to this post with the following information:
Server Operating System
Version of the .NET Framework
How did you deploy?
If you deployed with CRRuntime_12_0_mlb.msi - what was the date of the file and its size?
What is the file version of crpe32.dll on your server? You'll find this in the C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86 directory
How many libpng10.dll files are on your system? List all instances.
Any additional comments
What We Know
The error invalid export DLL or export format may occur when exporting to Excel and RTF formats in .NET applications utilizing the Crystal Reports 2008 runtime (v 12.0)
Other export formats like Adobe PDF, Crystal Reports, CSV all export with no error
Some customers have resolved this by adding C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86 to their environment path variables
This may have something to do with the file libpng10.dll. Both crxf_xls.dll and crxf_rtf.dll are dependent on it.
Thanks in advance for your co-operation. We hope to figure out what is causing this issue soon.

Hi,
I am also having the same problem, except that I am not using Crystal Report 2008 runtime but the actual Crystal Report 2008 installation on Windows XP SP2 with VS Studio 2005 (VC++). MS .NET Framework 2.0.
Cyrstal Report XIR2 was installed on the same machine but uninstalled before installing Crystal Report 2008.
So only one instance of libpng10.dll and found in C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86
Crpe32.dll        3/1/2008 version 12.0.0.683
Crxf_xls.dll       3/1/2008 version 12.0.0.683
Crxf_rtf.dll         3/1/2008 version 12.0.0.683
crdb_oracle.dll 3/1/2008 version 12.0.0.683
libpng10.dll       3/1/2008 version 1.0.30.0             122880 bytes
There is no problem for exporting to pdf, html, word, csv, Crystal Report. If I create a testing report without any data from database, the testing report can then be exported also to rtf and xls.
Oracle 11.1.0.6 is the DB for the reports.
Adding C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86 to the path did not resolve my problem.
Any idea to fix this issue?
Thanks

Hi Suma,
Post the SQL you success run directly on Studio together with error message (even if is the Invalid column index error).
Check there if the parameters case is working properly... Is it really this confusing options:
p_GJAHR
S_BUKRS
p_base_ledger
Why not all lower or all upper? Anyhow you must test and find which option works according your modeling

First login must be done with Installation user.
In your case you tried to login from your PC where you were conected with your user.
This user is used to connect to BPC and this user has no rights into BPC.
It was used this user because BPC allow Windows authentication.
So you have to go into IE - Tools - Internet Options
Select Security Tab - Select Intranet
Push Custom Level
Go to section - User Authentication - select "Prompt always user and pwd"
Close IE
Open again and try http://nameofserver/osoft you will receive now a prompt for user and pwd.
Input an user and pwd with access to BPC and you will see this time the page will be load correct.

Window 8.1 update & invalid security certificate errors

I set up my new PC 2 days ago running Windows 8.1. I was able to visit all websites, including secure ones, w/no issues via Firefox. Last night, suddenly I was unable to access many secure websites. These include Google (Gmail) & Ilines (email). Here is a copy of the Google error:
"mail.google.com uses an invalid security certificate. The certificate is not trusted because the issuer certificate is unknown. (Error code: sec_error_unknown_issuer)"
There is no button to bypass, as I have seen in the past. I tried deleting cert8.db which didn't resolve anything. I have also tried adding exceptions which also don't resolve the issue.
I searched support & found the link for the MS document (link below) indicating that FF & Windows Family Safety certificates are not playing nice.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2965142/en-us#appliesto
I tried to follow the guide, but when I get to step 6, there is no Microsoft Family Safety Certificate in the Trusted Root Certificates Authorities to export. For reference, I do not specifically have Family Safety enabled & am running my PC as admin, no other users. I personally have no use for this but it is my understanding that it cannot be uninstalled, either.
I have spent hours researching & making adjustments to different settings to no avail. It is frustrating enough setting up a new PC & transferring info w/out this extra hassle. Does anyone have any other suggestions? FF is my preferred browser, but if this can't be resolved I will need to use something else so that I can access these important websites.

Thanks for the feedback cor-el. Here are the results:
1. Installed Kaspersky certificate per link= no change
2. Turned off Kaspersky= able to log in to Gmail but not the other secure sites I am having probs with
3. Booted in Safe Networking mode= able to log in to Gmail but not the other secure sites. Same blocking errors on Gmail, etc when returned to reg mode.
Just FYI, I get 2 different secure connection errors:
Gmail: "mail.google.com uses an invalid security certificate. The certificate is not trusted because the issuer certificate is unknown. (Error code: sec_error_unknown_issuer)"
Ilines: "Secure Connection Failed An error occurred during a connection to mail.ilines.net. Peer's certificate has an invalid signature. (Error code: sec_error_bad_signature)"

Invalid Export Options error
