many thank's

Hi Ludek
Thank you for your response. I have installed SP3 and ProcMon and still the same result.
I applied a filter on ProcMon to filter out items where the path contains 'export'.
There are a few items where the result is 'NAME NOT FOUND' but I don't think it necessarly had anything to do with the barcode. These include items such as 'EXPORT\MailDestType','EXPORT\DisableExportLiveOfficeSupport'','EXPORT\ExportDirectory' to name a few.
What drew my attention was the ACCESS DENIED result on specifically the EXPORT\PDF folders. The detail for these are Desired Access : All access, however the very same entry appears a little futher on as a SUCCESS but this is detailed as Desired Access: Query Value.
So in summary it looks something like this:
User : Server\XXX
Operation : RegOpenKey
Path : HKU\.DEFAULT\Software\Business Objects\Suite 12.0\Crystal Reports\Export\Pdf
Result : ACCESS DENIED
Desired Access : All Access
User : Server\XXX
Operation : RegOpenKey
Path : HKU\.DEFAULT\Software\Business Objects\Suite 12.0\Crystal Reports\Export\Pdf
Result : SUCCESS
Desired Access : Query Value
There are a few other entries that follow this pattern that exists in other locations such as HKLM\Software...
Could this 'ACCESS DENIED' be the problem? and If so how do I, and should I give user XXX this ALL Access its looking for.

I got the same error message when trying to export a report to Excel format. This happened with an existing report that had always exported with no problem, until I added a couple of new formulas. After investigating, I discovered that one of my formulas was returning a divide by zero error if a date range was too small. Once I fixed that formula, it began exporting again with no problem. I discovered this by trying to export to PDF (since all of the situations discussed here involved PDF) and that was when it returned the divide by zero error.

Server Threw Exception when Exporting the report as PDF

Hi ,
I am developing a .Net application , In my application referring to the .rep file which is created using the Business Objects Desktop Intelligence as below
objBO = new busobj.Application();
                    objBO.Logon(strUserName, strPassword, strServerName, strConnectionMode,false, false);
                    objBO.Visible = false;
                    objBO.Documents.OpenFromEnterprise("PfILS Document.rep", strDomain, BoEnterpriseFolderKind.boFolder);
After passing the values to the variables of the.rep and refreshing like as below
objBO.Application.ActiveDocument.Refresh();
when I tried to save the generated report as .pdf ..
objBO.Application.ActiveDocument.ExportAsPDF(@"c:\" + Report0101010 + ".pdf");
I am getting the following issue
The server threw an exception. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80010105 (RPC_E_SERVERFAULT))
and the application fails to export the report to pdf document
Please help me , what will be root cause of this issue
Thanks

"The process cannot access the file ..." occurs when export crystal report

We are using a web application developed in VS 2005, .NET 2.0 with the bundled Crystal Reports version 10.2.3600.0 running on a Windows 2003 Standard server with 4GB Ram and Dual CPU's. Periodically we are still receiving the following error in our production environment:
InnerException:
The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.
   at CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.Controllers.ReportSourceClass.Export(ExportOptions pExportOptions, RequestContext pRequestContext)
   at CrystalDecisions.ReportSource.EromReportSourceBase.ExportToStream(ExportRequestContext reqContext)

   at CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument.ExportToStream(ExportOptions options)
   at CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument.ExportToStream(ExportFormatType formatType)
This is occuring at the point on the code where the report is being exported to a PDF. Exporting the report to Excel does not appear to cause the error.
                Stream outStream = report.ExportToStream(ExportFormatType.PortableDocFormat);
                byte[] charStream = new byte[outStream.Length];
                outStream.Read(charStream, 0, (int)outStream.Length);
                if ((charStream != null) && (charStream.Length > 0))
                    HttpContext.Current.Response.ContentType = "application/pdf";
                    HttpContext.Current.Response.OutputStream.Write(charStream, 0, charStream.Length);
                    HttpContext.Current.Response.End();
            report.Close();
            report.Dispose();
            ds.Dispose();
            GC.Collect();
Closing and disposing of the report and dataset (xsd) are followed by a call for garbage collection. We are unable to produce the error in our development environmennt and have not at this point been unable to pinpoint a problematic report. The development team members do have SP1 installed. The report limit has not been changed from the standard of 75 jobs. Reviewed the following document, Re: "The process cannot access the file ..." occurs when export crystal report However this applies to VS 2008. Any suggestions to resolve the issue would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Joe

To answer your questions:
Is it correct to presume that the physical number of CPU's is not factored into the CPL? So that a Server with 2 or more processors does not increase the 3 concurrent requests? Therefore 2 CPU's would not increase the CPL limit to 6 processes?
- Server with 2 or more processors does not increase the 3 concurrent requests.
What would be an alternate solution to this limit be, considering the report requests could increase significantly?
- Only way around this would be to web farm the solution
If only only 3 reports can be processed at the same time. If one or more of the reports currently processing is taking longer due to receiving large amounts of data, how does that affect the queue? And what is stored in the queue, data and/or the report? Is this something that could consume memory?
- The report can take as much time as it needs. The result is that one license will not be released until the report is done. There is no data stored, just a pointer to the report. However queued apps will chew up memory, some times to the point of the server becoming unresponsive
I have read in the documentation on this site, that the dataset sent to the engine is copied in memory during report construction. So if a large amount of data is requested for a report (as an example 10+ MB) Could enough users requesting reports drive the memory up because memory usage doubled due to the dataset?
- Absolutely. See [Crystal Reports Guide to ADO.NET|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc/index?rid=/library/uuid/401c4455-a31d-2b10-ae96-fa57af5aec20].
Understanding the the CR DLL's are loaded on the first report request, do they get released at some point time due to inactivity or garbage collection? How much memory usage could be consumed when they load and stay resident?
- No they do not. Not as long as the application is running.

No link after exporting Crystal report as pdf file

Hello,
          If my Crystal Report contain link to the .avi file saved on the local hard disk and if I export the Report as .pdf file, pdf file does not contain that link. Why?
The overall scenario is like-
My application fires a query on SQL Server database and result of that query is stored in a Dataset. This dataset is set as a datasource to the Crystal report. Now some, records (returned by the query) have .avi files(i.e. Event Videos which are stored on the local hard disk) associated with them. I have stored these .avi files in a specific path on local Hard disk say "C:/EventVideos/*.avi" .   I used a special format in these avi files name. (like - "EventVideo_1.avi" (This is for 1st event), "EventVideo_5.avi" (This is for 5th event)etc. to identify which avi is for which event. All events do not have avi files associated with them)
      Now, I take one object in crystal report. Using it's Format editor created a formula for hyperlink as -
      "file:///c:/EventVideos/EventVideo_" + {DataTable1.EventID} + ".avi" .
EventID is the field of dataset which has ID's (like 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 etc) of all resulted events. It is of a String data type.
     Now when I export, my report as .xls, .rtf, .doc, I can open the avi files. When I bring cursor on this object, cursor get change to Hand and after click on it avi file start to play.
     But if I export it as .pdf, it does not contain the link for avi files. When I bring cursor on this object, it does not change to Hand, and after click on it nothing happens. No video play.
I stick to this problem.
Appreciate your help.
Thanks in advance.

Taken from CR Help File:
"PDF format is a page-based format. The exported documents are intended for printing and redistribution. PDF format will export both layout and formatting in a manner that is consistent with how the report looks on the Preview tab. PDF format embeds the TrueType fonts that appear in the document. (Non-TrueType fonts are not supported.) This export format does not support Microsoft font-linking technologyu2014which is used to provide support for some extended character sets such as Chinese HKCS. Therefore, the fonts used in the report must contain all of the required glyphs. These URI types are supported for hyperlinks: "http:", "https:" and "mailto:".
Therefore your hyperlink is not working as u are using File type when cr only supports http https and mailto uri types

Export Crystal Report to PDF

Hi,
in my Crystal Report (2008) is a chart, designed with Xcelsius 2008. The report is displayed well. When I export my Flash-Chart from Xcelsius to PDF the chart is displayed correctly in PDF document.
When I export the Crystal Report to PDF my Flash-Chart is displayed completley grey in PDF document. There is the same issue when I schedule my Crystal Report to PDF on BO Edge-Server.
Is this a known issue and can be fixed?

I am bringing this subject back up because I am still having problems with this. I am using CR 2008, Xcelsius 2008 and Edge 3.1 Enterprise Server along with a Visual Basic 2005 program. I have Adobe Reader 9 loaded on both my local machine and the server where Edge is installed.
I have a report that is passing flash variables to an embedded .swf file which is a pretty simple horizontal stacked bar chart. When I view this report in CR on my local machine everything on the report is correct and I can print it to PDF and it is correct when I view it with Adobe Reader. I can also print the report to a printer and get the desired result which is the most important thing here.
My next step is saving the report to the Enterprise server. I then run my Winform Visual Basic program that passes the paramters to the report and schedules it to run on the server. The report runs fine and we access it with InfoView. Again the report looks fine because when we open it, it opens with Adobe Reader on the server. The problem is when we try to print this instance of the report from the server the chart keeps doubling up the stacked bars so there are two of them instead of the one.
Does anybody have any ideas????
Thank you in advance.

Failed to export the report to PDF

I am currently developing multiple applications using Visual Studio 2008 and Crystal Reports. The application works fine in the development environment but when deployed to a user's machine I get the error listed below.
I installed the redistributable package that came with Visual Studio. Then I installed my packed. I check in the users GAC that the assemblies I used in developing are installed. They are present on the users machine.
I have not found much on this subject online. Does anyone know of a solution to this issue? Was installing the redistributable package that came with Visual Studio 2008 correct? Any help would be great.

Exporting Crystal Report to pdf

Hi,
We have a crystal report that is stored in Business Objects Enterprise XI 3.1. The requirement is to connect to the Enterprise and export the report as pdf in .NET web page. I see a lot of RAS samples. But we are required to use the Business Objects Enterprise sdk dlls for this purpose.
Can somebody provide me a sample for this.
Thanks
Irene

Hi Adam,
Yes I am trying to use the Page Server option of RAS to open the report. That is only one working due to firewall restrictions.
But I was trying to set the report parameters in the report Object and assumed that it should be reflected when opening the report. But that does not seem to work. So now what I did is, I tried to set the report source to report viewer control and change the parameters through code.
        boEnterpriseService = boEnterpriseSession.GetService("PSReportFactory");
        boReportAppFactory = (PSReportFactory)boEnterpriseService.Interface;
        ISCRReportSource objRep = boReportAppFactory.OpenReportSource(boInfoObject.ID);
        CrystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = objRep;
        CrystalDecisions.Shared.ParameterFields objFields = CrystalReportViewer1.ParameterFieldInfo;
        CrystalDecisions.Shared.ParameterDiscreteValue objDis = new CrystalDecisions.Shared.ParameterDiscreteValue();
        objDis.Value = "Product Category";
        objFields[0].CurrentValues.Clear();
        objFields[0].CurrentValues.Add(objDis);
        CrystalReportViewer1.ShowFirstPage();
So the report shown in the viewer is opened with the parameters specified. But now I have the problem of exporting. I need to export this report with the parameters specified in code to pdf.
What are the options. I tried using the CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument so I can do the export but am getting Communication Failure:FWM 0001.
Is there any way of directly exporting the report from the viewer without user intervention ?
Thanks
Irene

Error of "Not enough memory for operation" when exporting Crystal Report

Hi,
I am getting errors in Business Objects when I try to export a report from its native Crystal format to PDF (or Word). This is only happening in one of our many reports.
When I try to export within the Business Objects viewer (in Crystal format), then click the "Export this report" button, and select "Adobe Acrobat (PDF) as the File Format, click OK, I get the following error:
CrystalReportViewer
handleCrystalEvent failed
WebReporting.dll error '80004005'
Not enough memory for operation.
/InformationCentral/Viewers/crystal_viewer.asp, line 39
This also occurs if I try to export to PDF within the Crystal Report designer as well, but the error is a bit different:
"Failed to export report" then "Memory Full".
Strange one this is....

Hi Peter,
Could you try to minimize the records in the report by giving some additional conditions? May be like give the date range or select for few regions etc?
Try in such a way so that your report downloads less number of records.
Hope this helps.

Rashmi

Export Crystal Report to PDF only

Hi,
I'm new to Crystal Report(CR) for VS2010, so please bear with me. How do i make CR to export to PDF file only. When i try to click on the export icon, it gives me so many options to export the file but i only need the user to export to PDF file. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hello,
CR for VS 2010 now gives you the options through an API to allow which types will show up in the export options.
In your viewer click event add this :
private void ViewReport_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    rptClientDoc = rpt.ReportClientDocument;
    crystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = rpt;
    // set up the format export types:
    // to set each type allowed
    //int myFOpts = (int)(CrystalDecisions.Shared.ViewerExportFormats.RptFormat | CrystalDecisions.Shared.ViewerExportFormats.PdfFormat | CrystalDecisions.Shared.ViewerExportFormats.RptrFormat | CrystalDecisions.Shared.ViewerExportFormats.XLSXFormat );
    // to set all types allowed
    int myFOpts = (int)(CrystalDecisions.Shared.ViewerExportFormats.AllFormats);
    crystalReportViewer1.AllowedExportFormats = myFOpts;
Thank you

Logon Failed Error in Crystal Reports

Hiii Experts,
                We are facing one error while working on crystal reports 2008 and SAP Version 8.8-PL18 and SAP 8.81-PL 9
"Logon Failed" Error comes even when we add all connection details correctly in connection details window, sometimes it comes some time not.
          We face this error when,
1) When verifying the database in Crystal reports.
2)When we are saving any particular report in sap B1.
3)It comes when we try to set the database Location in Crystal Reports.
4)Also,when we are trying to view preview of report.
                This problem is too much time consuming and irregular. We are not able to find exact cause. Please, help us.
Edited by: suhas.patil on Jan 24, 2012 3:54 PM

Hi Suhas,
when making a test, its always a good practice to test in the same PL, or in a Higher PL.
anyways, you need to update your Datasource, from your CR IDE goto Database -->> Set Datasource Location. then use either of the 2
1. OLE DB (ADO) - Driver (SQL Server Native Client 10.0)
2. SAP Business One
and update your datasource accordingly.

Exporting Crystal reports to PDF from VB - Hmmmm doozy

Post Author: shiniz
CA Forum: Integrated Solutions
Hello,
I'm currently exporting successfully to PDF from crystal reports 10 to PDF using options:
Report.ExportOptions.FormatType = crEFTPortableDocFormat
Report.Export(False)
All is well but I would like the PDF I export to be mono colour (ie black and white) not greyscale.
Is there an option I am missing? or is this a question I should raise on a VB forum...
Thanks for any suggestion..

This problem cleared up when I re-saved my main report after editing the embedded sub-reports. Was related to extra headers and footers being added to sub-reports, along with "can grow" format option set to "No".

Problem when exporting the report to PDF viwer a 45,000-page report

I am using Visual Studio 2013 with the report vivew.
I have a report that works correctly, however when generating a 45000 pages he is giving memory error when exporting to PDF, any tips?

How to hide Database Logon option when scheduling Crystal Report in BOE?

Hi All,
For security reason, we are try to hide the Database Logon option in Crystal Report Schedule page in InfoView.
There is option in CMC which we can configure the default Database logon option so that users do not have to enter the logon everytime they view or schedule the report. However, we are looking to hide this option completely.
Does anyone know if there is a security setting which can hide the option from specific users?
Thanks,
Bobby

Hi Bobby,
As Jorge informed that there is no method available within CMC to hide database logon option when scheduling or viewing a Crystal Report in the Info view. This is very much true.
But as you also mentioned that you don't want your users to enter the database logon credentials evertime they view or schedule a crystal report, there is one setting in CMC which we can do to avoid prompt for database logon credentials.
CMC - Home - Go to that specific crystal report - Click Process tab - Click the sub-tab 'Database' and at the bottom of the page there is an option "Use same database logon as when report is run". Check this option after providing the database credentials and click UPDATE.
Now whenever users try to view or schedule this specifc crystal report they won't be prompted for the database logon credentials.
Regards,
Venkat
