Symptom
How do I trace Crystal Report Print Engine errors in BusinessObjects Enterprise XI and Crystal Enterprise?
Cause
Various error messages appear and poor behavior occurs when viewing Crystal Reports on demand or scheduling reports within Enterprise XI and Crystal Enterprise. Advanced logging techniques can reveal the causes of these issues.
Resolution
To help troubleshoot issues, add -crpetrace 7 and -trace to the command line parameters for the Crystal Reports Job Server or the Crystal Reports Page Server.
The Crystal Reports Job Server handles scheduled reports, and the Crystal Reports Page Server processes on-demand reports.
Here are the steps:
Click Start > Programs > BusinessObjects11 > BusinessObjects Enterprise > Central Configuration Manager.
Right-click the server requiring the advanced logging. Click Stop.
Right-click the server. Click Properties.
Go to the end of the Command field.
Press the spacebar once. Type "-crpetrace 7" and "-trace".
Click OK.
Right click the server. Click Start.
Advanced logging is now enabled.
The default logging folder path is: <installation directory>:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 11\Logging\.
The CRPE log files will be named similar to the following:
pageserver_20071108_193611_5008_crpe_bkgrnd.log
pageserver_20071108_193611_5008_crpe_Diagnostics.log
pageserver_20071108_193611_5008_crpe_functions.log
====================
NOTE:
These parameters provide extensive logging. Every call to the Crystal Report Print Engine will be logged. If a support case is still required, it will be helpful to attach the results of this trace to facilitate the diagnosis and expedite a solution.
