Is there a recommended crystal reports viewer for Mavericks?

I am having some trouble finding a Crystal reports viewer for Mavericks and was wondering if someone might have some guidance as to the best solution(s).
Thanks!

This is the most current:

Dynamic command execution fails in Crystal report viewer for parameters

We are using the Crystal Report Viewer for the .Net Application on the client side.The reports are designed using Crystal Report XI R2.
The issues that we are currently encountering is that, we are unable to load the combo-boxes in the pop-up for the parameters.
All the reports have multiple commands and the variables are of 'dynamic' type.
When the dialog box for requesting the pop-up comes up, It comes up empty even though they are linked to the respective commands.
Also,For reports having multiple parameters we are unable to give a single dialog box to get in all the parameters.It appears as a series of prompts.
Both,these issues are not encountered when the reports are launched via the Crystal reports developer tool.

Hello Varun,
I recommend to post this questionin the [dedicated NET forum|SAP Crystal Reports, version for Visual Studio;.
This forum is monitored by qualified technicians and you will get a faster response there.
Thank you for your understanding,

Reuse Crystal report Viewer For different reports - unload cache

So I am migrating from crystal reports basic to crystal reports 2008. I have hit a stumbling block. Rather than have a new page and report viewer for each report I decided it would be easier to have one report viewer and send to it in session variables the report I wish to run and appropriate parameters. This seemed to work fine in CR basic.
Now I have upgraded the viewer works fine for the first report I run however it then caches this report and doesn't seem to clear it down, if the new report has different parameters I will get a parameter error. If I run a report requiring the same parameters I will get the original report not an updated one.
I believe I need to leave the CrystalReportSource cache on in order to page the report (correct me if I am wrong)
I have taken a few snippets of code, is this possibly running too late in page life cycle have I missed something or is there a way to force a cache clear:
protected override void OnLoad(EventArgs e) {
//setup report in viewer with correct db logon
                CrystalRepSource.Report.FileName = report;
                SetupLogonInfo(CrystalRepSource);
                //add parameters
                AddParam(paramFields, pfItem1, dcItem1, "@year", year);
                AddParam(paramFields, pfItem2, dcItem2, "@school", school);
                AddParam(paramFields, pfItem3, dcItem3, "@division", division);
                AddParam(paramFields, pfItem4, dcItem4, "@progArea", progArea);
                AddParam(paramFields, pfItem5, dcItem5, "@type", SessionHandler.record_type);
                AddParam(paramFields, pfItem6, dcItem6, "@filterText", "School = \'" + school +
                                                        "\' Division = \'" + division
                                                        + "\' Programme Area = \'" + progArea
                                                        + "\' Record Type = \'" + SessionHandler.record_type_text + "\'");
CrystalViewer.ParameterFieldInfo = paramFields;
private void SetupLogonInfo(CrystalReportSource CrystalRepSource)
        TableLogOnInfo logOnInfo = new TableLogOnInfo();
        logOnInfo = CrystalRepSource.ReportDocument.Database.Tables[0].LogOnInfo;
        ConnectionInfo connectionInfo = new ConnectionInfo();
        connectionInfo = logOnInfo.ConnectionInfo;
        connectionInfo.DatabaseName = Application["db"].ToString();
        connectionInfo.ServerName = Application["server"].ToString();
        connectionInfo.Password = Application["pass"].ToString();
        connectionInfo.UserID = Application["user"].ToString();
        CrystalRepSource.ReportDocument.Database.Tables[0].ApplyLogOnInfo(logOnInfo);
    private void AddParam(ParameterFields paramFields, ParameterField pfItem, ParameterDiscreteValue dcItem, string fieldName, string value)
        pfItem.ParameterFieldName = fieldName;
        dcItem.Value = value;
        pfItem.CurrentValues.Add(dcItem);
        paramFields.Add(pfItem);

ok so I have tried changing the code to:
CrystalRepSource.ReportDocument.SetParameterValue("@year", year);
                CrystalRepSource.ReportDocument.SetParameterValue("@school", school);
                CrystalRepSource.ReportDocument.SetParameterValue("@division", division);
                CrystalRepSource.ReportDocument.SetParameterValue("@progArea", progArea);
                CrystalRepSource.ReportDocument.SetParameterValue("@type", SessionHandler.record_type);
                CrystalRepSource.ReportDocument.SetParameterValue("@filterText", "School = \'" + school +
                                                        "\' Division = \'" + division
                                                        + "\' Programme Area = \'" + progArea
                                                        + "\' Record Type = \'" + SessionHandler.record_type_text + "\'");
private void Page_Unload(object sender, EventArgs e)
        try
                CrystalRepSource.Report.DataSources.Clear();
                CrystalRepSource.Report.Parameters.Clear();
                //CrystalRepSource.ReportDocument.Close();
                //CrystalRepSource.ReportDocument.Dispose();
                CrystalRepSource.Dispose();
                CrystalViewer.Dispose();
                GC.Collect();
        catch { }
I experimented with various bits in the page unload as you can see I have commented a bit out at present as it was throwing an exception. The SetParametersValue while handy (will clean the code up a bit) didn't make any difference I am still getting the same issue.

Crystal report Viewer for 8.5 reports

We are using an older version of Crystal reports (8.5) and use an application called RePortal (that use Crystal Enterprise) to view the reports through out the building. We recently had a report that was created and we are getting an error:
Error encountered by Crystal PageServer
Unable to connect: incorrect table location. File Worksheet.rpt. On Cache/Page Server:
I tried a few solutions I found on line, but that didn't work.
My thought was to bypass and download the free Crystal Report viewer, but the one I found was only compatible with Reports written in 9 or higher.
Does anyone know how to resolve the error above or we I can find an older version of Viewer to work on 8.5

Hi
Now am using Crystal Report 8.5 with Visual Basic 6.0
i want to use latest of crystal report with Visual basic 6.0
can anyone suggest which version i have to use
it must be compatible with Visual Basic 6.0

Hi Sandeep,
Did you download CR for VS SP 13 from this link?
http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-7824
First link is to integrate CR into VS.
If you did then I suggest you do a Repair on both VS and CR for VS.
Also, VS must be Pro or higher, CR will not work in VS 2013 Express.
Do you have printers installed? Do not use Windows XPS printer, it has problems.

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();

Dynamic command execution fails in Crystal report viewer

Did you end up cross posting this anywhere else? I just started running into the problem with XI r1 trying to view a report I modified in r2. The only solution I seem to have found involves upgrading all of our customers to r2, which is not a very pleasant option. I'd be interested in learning if anyone has come up with a better solution.

How to set printersettings for the crystal report viewer in SAP BI dynamically

Hello
I have set the URL method for my crystal report and with parameter passing as shown below, it was displaying the crystal report viewer by connecting to the SAP BI 4.0 server with this method.
http://cr:port/businessobjects/enterprise115/desktoplaunch/opendoc/openDocument.jsp?sDocName=CRLabelParam&sType=rpt&lsSnPrinted=0&lsSsTestProjectNr=1
This URL will be called from Web application by different users, i would like to set the printer settings differently for different users for this crystal report viewer how shall i need to set the printer options?
shall i need to set the printer settings programatically for each user. Please advise me how do i need to proceed.
Thanks & Regards,
Rajeswari.

There are no BI / CR APIs that would do this for you. The way I see it, you'll have to have your own print button and populate it with the correct printer information for each user as they request the report. Of course, alternatively, use the viewer printer button and get the users to choose the correct printer.

Crystal Report Viewer 2008, postback causes a weird QueryString for dates

HI,
I'm having a weird problem that was masked with the error "".
What is happening to me is that i have an ASPX page where the QueryString passed in is used as parameters to the report (straightforward). When the page first loads, this is all fine the QuerySTring is properly parsed and the report is properly displayed. Now, the problem comes when i click on the PRINT Button it performs a postback, and during that postback the querystring is read so that it can rebuild the report on the postback. (In previous versions of crystal, this has always worked). The issue here is that the version 12 of the report viewer here now appears to also append some information to the query string that was not previously there (like this: ServletTask=Print&cmd=get_pg&page=1) So the problem here for me is this is what my original QueryString looks like:
tokenid=b2817081-6b52-43c7-8e2c-d6209af2ed98&Type=Appointment&Val=12%3b1%3b1%3b06%2f10%2f2000
THat query string is generated by the following code (pre-encoded)
"PrintPage.aspx?tokenid=" & Guid.NewGuid.ToString & "&Type=Appointment&Val=" & "12" & ";" & "1" & ";" & "1" & ";" & "1/1/2000" (NOTE the date here, i'll get to that in a second)
Then, what the problem is on the postback the Query String looks like this:
tokenid=2a4f42de-bd90-48b5-ac82-bd34b503afd3&Type=Appointment&Type=Appointment&Val=12%3b1%3b1%3b1%2f1%2fPrintPage.aspx%3ftokenid%3d2a4f42de-bd90-48b5-ac82-bd34b503afd3&Val=12%3b1%3b1%3b1%2f1%2f2000&ServletTask=Print&cmd=get_pg&page=1
As you can see here it's all messed up.
So, what i found here is that the underlying cause is that we are passing a "date" in the original QueryString and it seems on the postback the Crystal Reports Viewer is having some issue with that and basically messes up the query string...
I have Crystal Reports 2008/SP3 installed.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Cleaning up these forums I came across this unanswered thread.
Very weird behavior that I have seen maybe 3 or 4 years ago - I think it was with opendocument.aspx...
In this case, we appear to be re-adding the querystring with the aspx name and question mark (u2026.parentagesu2026). Having two question marks (%3f) is essentially a malformed URL since this indicates where the querystring starts.
The duplicate querystring may have been a coding error(?) where it gets added again on a postback.
Were you able to resolve the issue?

If I change the user agent string in Firefox to that of Firefox 7.0.1 everything works as expected, this implies there is some logic in get_IsNetscape6Up() which is failing because the major browser version as reported by the user agent string is two digits instead of one.
We encountered a similar issue for our legacy pages containing Infragistics 2007 controls but were able to fix that by overriding the System.Web.Configuration.HttpCapabilitiesBase.BrowserCapabilitiesProvider and faking the browser version to 9.80. Crystal Report Viewer is apparently not using .Net's built in HttpBrowserCapabilities object, is there anything else I can adjust to stop the viewer failing?

hello Robert
Today must be my day. I already got a reply from PM (normally it takes a "bit" longer...). Anyhow, here is what he said:
With Firefoxu2019s release cycles, I donu2019t think weu2019ll be able to officially support the latest versions
of Firefox at every service release. We do our best to test the released versions of Firefox
that align with our releases. I donu2019t know the details but Iu2019ve heard there is a plan in place where
the support team(s) (?) will test the most recent releases of Firefox with whatu2019s currently
shipping by SAP and log bugs as necessary.
(umm, this is my - Ludek note here ) -> news to me re. support doing QA... find out something new every day. Anyhow, continuation of the message from PM:
The current plan for CR for VS2010, the SP3 release (expected in April) will support up to
Firefox 9. If there are reproducible bugs in Firefox 10 (or higher), then please enter a bug
and escalate and it will be investigated for the next available release.
I'll revisit this once SP3 is out there and do an escalation for Firefox 10 - ok?

Crystal Report Viewer Credential Prompt for Report with Dynamic Parameters

The .NET Crystal Report Viewer is prompting for database credentials when launching a report containing dynamic parameters. This only occurs for reports created with SAP Crystal Reports 2011 designer. Reports created with Crystal Reports XI designer (where dynamic parameters were first introduced) work correctly.
The credential prompt window contains the following fields:
- Server Name: <server name> (disabled)
- Database Name: <database name> (disabled)
- User Name: <empty> (enabled)
- Password: <empty> (enabled)
- Use Single Signon Key: false (disabled)
The values in the prompt window which are disabled are the database connection values used during the design of the report in the SAP Crystal Reports 2011 designer.
Expected Result:
- No prompt for database credentials.
- Values read from the database should be populated in a drop down for the dynamic parameters.
Environment:
- Visual Studio 2010 (C#)
- Windows 7 Enterprise
- SAP Crystal Reports runtime engine for .NET Framework 4
- SAP Crystal Reports, version for Visual Studio 2010
- SAP Crystal Reports 2011
The database connection is being set to use a DSN. It must be a DSN as the calling application is only aware of the DSN/Username/Password values. These values are being passed to the Crystal Report Viewer contained in a Windows form.
The database connection for the report is being set as follows:
foreach (InternalConnectionInfo internalConnectionInfo in this.report.DataSourceConnections)
    // Must set the UseDSNProperties flag to True before setting the database connection otherwise the connection does not work
    if (internalConnectionInfo.LogonProperties.ContainsKey("UseDSNProperties"))
        internalConnectionInfo.LogonProperties.Set("UseDSNProperties", true);
    // Supposed to set the database connection for all objects in the report (ie. main report, tables, sub reports)
    internalConnectionInfo.SetConnection(this.DSN, string.Empty, this.LoginName, this.Password);
The SetConnection method's signature is as follows:
   SetConnection(string server, string database, string name, string password)
As you can see from the code snippet above I am setting the DSN name as the server parameter, blank for the database parameter (a database connection using DSN should only require DSN name/Username/Password) and the database username and password respectively.
Is this a SAP bug?
Is this the correct way of setting the database connection to use a DSN?
Is there some other properties that need to be set somewhere else in the report through code?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the pointer to the database connection code generator. After taking a look at the output from the tool I was able to finally get the dynamic parameters to load and populate properly without prompting for credentials. I needed to tweak the outputted code a bit to match my requirements of using a DSN only connection.
Instead of updating the database connection properties contained within the Report.Database.Tables collection from the CrystalReports.Engine namespace, I changed it to replace the database connection properties in the Report.ReportClientDocument.DatabaseController.Database.Tables collection from the CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.DataDefModel namespace. For one reason or another, using the RAS namespace solved the problem.
Below is the updated code with the change made:
using RAPTable = CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.DataDefModel.Table;
foreach (InternalConnectionInfo internalConnectionInfo in this.report.DataSourceConnections)
    // Must set the UseDSNProperties flag to True before setting the database connection
    if (internalConnectionInfo.LogonProperties.ContainsKey("UseDSNProperties"))
        internalConnectionInfo.LogonProperties.Set("UseDSNProperties", true);
    // Sets the database connection for all objects in the report (ie. main report, tables, sub reports)
    internalConnectionInfo.SetConnection(this.DSN, string.Empty, this.LoginName, this.Password);
// The attributes for the QE_LogonProperties which is part of the main property bag
PropertyBag innerPropertyBag = new PropertyBag();
innerPropertyBag.Add("DSN", this.DSN);
innerPropertyBag.Add("UserID", this.LoginName);
innerPropertyBag.Add("Password", this.Password);
innerPropertyBag.Add("UseDSNProperties", "true");
// The attributes collection of the tables ConnectionInfo object
PropertyBag mainPropertyBag = new PropertyBag();
mainPropertyBag.Add("Database DLL", "crdb_ado.dll");
mainPropertyBag.Add("QE_DatabaseType", "OLE DB (ADO)");
mainPropertyBag.Add("QE_LogonProperties", innerPropertyBag);
// Pass the database properties to a connection info object
ConnectionInfo connectionInfo = new ConnectionInfo();
connectionInfo.Attributes = mainPropertyBag;
connectionInfo.Kind = CrConnectionInfoKindEnum.crConnectionInfoKindCRQE;
connectionInfo.UserName = this.LoginName;
connectionInfo.Password = this.Password;
// Replace the database connection properties of each table in the report
foreach (RAPTable oldTable in this.report.ReportClientDocument.DatabaseController.Database.Tables)
    RAPTable table = new RAPTable();
    table.ConnectionInfo = connectionInfo;
    table.Name = oldTable.Name;
    table.QualifiedName = oldTable.QualifiedName;
    table.Alias = oldTable.Alias;
    this.report.ReportClientDocument.DatabaseController.SetTableLocation(oldTable, table);
this.report.VerifyDatabase();
Thanks again Ludek for the help.

Crystal Report Viewer Print does not work for IE7

Post Author: ssdudeveloper
CA Forum: .NET
When I view a report in IE7, and click the Print button in the Crystal Reports Viewer toolbar, an empty dialog window opens and no print dialog appears. The print functionality works correctly when viewing the same report using an IE6 browser.
I have tried changing the browser security settings (as per http://technicalsupport.businessobjects.com/cs/forums/thread/3171.aspx) - with Automatic prompting for file downloads set to Enable, but this does not resolve my problem.
Is this a known compatability issue with IE7? Are there any workarounds/solutions to this?

Hello,
Please search before posting.
Visual Studio 2010 is not meant to work with Crystal Reports 10.2.
Download CR4VS2010 here:

Install configuration for Crystal Reports Viewer 2011

Hi,
Is there any way to configure the defaults for Crystal Reports Viewer 2011 as part of the installation routine?
Specifically we would like to:
1. Switch off the attempt (on launch) to make an internet connection for community resources
2. Hide the side bar unless the user actually goes into the view menu to turn it on.
There's various reasons for this, but mostly it's that to get an internet connection the application has to go through the proxy server - we would rather that sort of activity was instigated by the end user on demand, not an application automatically, not least in this case because the license agreement window seems to be set to force itself to the 'front', which covers the proxy server prompt, so we can't write a script to provide automatic authentication without user intervention. It would be far better if there was a way to simply switch off this feature - and at the same time set the default 'view' settings to hide the side bar in the first place.

Hi,
Do you mean the Standalone Crystal Reports Viewer 2008: http://www.sap.com/solutions/sapbusinessobjects/sme/reporting/viewer/index.epx
If you do then you can perform a slient install by following the instructions from the release notes:
http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/crv2008/en/xi3-1_crviewer_release_en.pdf
Those notes are provided from this webpage:

Crystal reports viewer will not prompt for parameters

Help,
I can not get crystal report viewer to prompt for parameters when called from IIS 8 on Server 2012 r2
I can get crystal report viewer to prompt for parameters when run from vs 2010 built in web service.

Thanks,
The solution for me was to uninstall the latest crystal reports runtime 13.10.x and install 13.6.x instead.
Thanks anyway.

Is there a recommended crystal reports viewer for Mavericks?
