Look and feel discrepency after migrating Crystal Reports from XIR2 to XIR3

Hi,
We are migrating Crystal Reports from XIR2 to XIR3. If the report is designed in Crystal client by inserting a subreport it does not come well in web viewer(Infoview). If I do not use subreports then the view is same (both in web viewer & windows client preview).
Could you please let me know, what could be the problem and how to resolve this?
Your valuable time and solution is much appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Hello,
What happen if you use the web java viewer instead of web viewer? (you can change it in the preferences options)
Otherwise, when you say "it does not come well", what do you mean?
Thanks

View discrepency while migrating Crystal Reports from XIR2 to XIR3

Hi,

It's urgent. Your valuable time and solution is much appreciated.

I moved your thread to the " .NET - SAP Crystal Reports" forum, assuming this is in a .NET app(?)
Unfortunately, the description:
" does not come well in web viewer"
is somewhat "loose". Perhaps inserting a link to a screenshot(s) that demo the issue will be a good idea?
Also, if my assumption is correct:
1) What version of .NET?
2) What is the exact version of CR? (In CR designer go to Help | About)
3) What browser?
4) Does this work on you dev system?

SharePoint 2007 – 2013 migration List view webpart still shows 2010 look and feel even after visual upgrade run successfully in 2013.

I migrated one site collection from 2007 to 2013 environment. I did Visual upgrade on both 2010 & 2013 successfully. We have a strange issue with Listviewwebpart with group by functionality still shows 2010 look and feel.
If I manually edit that webpart and click ok the Listviewwebpart UI is showing the 2013 Look and feel. However I can’t manually update all the webparts because there are nearly
1500 subsites. I tried using console to update webpart but still not lucky
Following is 2010 look and feel in sp 2013 site:
expected look and feel should be as follows in sp 2013
Thanks, Ram Ch

Hi ramch011 ,
For your issue, you can force through an upgrade to the new user interface by using Windows PowerShell:
Verify that you meet the following minimum requirements: See Add-SPShellAdmin.
On the Start menu, click All Programs.
Click Microsoft SharePoint 2010 Products.
Click SharePoint 2010 Management Shell.
At the Windows PowerShell command prompt, type the following command:
$webapp = Get-SPWebApplication http://sitename
foreach ($s in $webapp.sites)
{$s.VisualUpgradeWebs() }
For more information, see Get-SPWebApplication

How to include look and feel features in the Hyperion Financial Reports

Hi,

2) Will traffic lighting functionality is present in Hyperion Reports (FR), if not present how can achieve this functionality
in FR ?
3) We have user look and feel features like pinboard in the web analyis reports, but are there any certailn features
in Hyperion Reports ??

You can use Conditional Formatting to produce stoplights in Report Studio.
If you know of specific things that you want to see, try reading the manual. I cannot give you details of every type of formatting you may want to see from such a vague post.

Themed look and feel broken in sub-site

We have several site collections in a farm using SP2013 + SP1 under a common web application that use a custom theme for the look and feel. After upgrading to SP2013 December 2014 CU, one of the site collections' custom theme is broken. Furthermore,
the same site collection cannot use most of the OOTB themes. I have only successfully gotten the theme "Office" to work correctly. (I have not tested all the OOTB theme choices)
Immediately after the CU was applied the CSS and JS on this site collection was not working. After changing the theme to "Office" I was able to test out other troubleshooting options. If I select another theme choice, the "try it out"
page returns with an error "A cobalt error was thrown." This is not a helpful error for me and I could not find much on the internet regarding it. Another error I have received was "file not found", or yet another error "The
URL
'_catalogs/theme/Themed/4F147962/likefull.11x11x32-F47391E9.themedpng' is
invalid. It may refer to a nonexistent file or folder, or refer to a valid file
or folder that is not in the current Web." I have not been able to fix the issue.
I have found that under 'Site Settings' -> 'Web Designer Galleries' -> 'Themes' -> 'Themed' is a library of folders. My thought is that these folders are created dynamically when a new theme is applied. I have several folders, but all are empty
except one. I am now trying to determine why these folders are empty.
Any ideas?

Hi,
Please try to update the latest CU for SharePoint 2013(April 2015 CU for SharePoint 2013), then check whether the issue still exists or not.
http://blogs.technet.com/b/stefan_gossner/archive/2015/04/14/april-2015-cu-for-sharepoint-2013-has-been-released.aspx
In my test environment, the 'Themed' all folders are not empty.

Migrating sapgui look and feel settings of sapgui to new notebook.

Hi,
We are migrating from XP to Vista and SAPGui 640 to 710. (new notebooks are assigned to the users)
I copied saplogon.ini to the new notebook to preserve the links to the servers.
Some users have customized the look and feel of their SAPGui. How can I copy the settings of their SAPGui to the new notebook (like the visual design, color settings and font size that the user have set in their sapgui.)
thanks,
Roel

Hello Roel,
The windows vista version itself gives a new dimension to the look and feel. So I guess nothing must have been editted on SAPGUI screen.
And more of SAP GUI 640 to 700 look and features are also different.
Kindly request you to check with the user who has changed and got the looks as you found on his screen.
If you are looking for the changed screen after SAP gui login, where the main screen appears.
Then I would suggest, you go through thsi link below -
Change SAPGUI initial login screen
http://www.sap-img.com/basis/changing-the-sapgui-logo-on-the-right-hand-side.htm
Do let me know if this resolved your issue.
Thank you.

Change of Layout/Look and Feel in BI 7 Reports.

Hi,
This is Prem from NetWeaver Portals.
Currently we have a couple of BI 7.0 reports integrated into portal.
We have also used Portal Themes to alter the Look and Feel of the BI reports with respect to Heading colors, alternate row colors etc. But the scope of changing the Look and feel of BI reports from the Portal theme is very limited.
Is there a way to modify it further from BI's CSS?
Where is this functionality provided in SAP BI 7.0?
We are also interested in changing the Layout of the reports in BI. i.e. unlike the standard BI format of reports as generated from the Web Application designer, we would like to change the layout as well.
How is this layout change carried out? Web Templates?
Kindly spell out a solution for me as I'm not aware of BI
Thanks and Regards,
Prem

Could yo please explain little detial. how do you changed the look and feel of reports through the portal themes. We are trying to change the colors of the execptions and text box and some more. we have created a custom theme in which we changed the complex formatted table crictal, bad, good colors. when we assigned this theme through personalization to the user, custom theme colors are not seen in the BW report.
Please let us know
thanks and regards

Trouble migrating Crystal Reports Custom Functions from BOXI R2 to BOXI 3.1

I can't seem to migrate the custom functions from the custom function repository in my R2 environment to the 3.1 with FP 1.3 environment.
When I migrate Crystal Reports using the Import Wizard, they all come over and they retain their custom functions, however, they don't bring over or create a new custom function repository.
When I do run the import wizard I have selected the repository radio button, but it does not have any affect .
How can I migrate all of these custom functions without having to manually open up reports and placing them back into the repository on the new server?
Thanks,
Randy

Hi,
so if they are published to Rel.2 this looks different.
Just to clarify it a bit more...these Files are no Datasources for Reports and Universes and your Users dont consume them via InfoView?!
Whats the purpose for these Files? If they have none, you can de- select them in the UMT and dont migrate them (or better said move them cause you wont actually migrate .csv files). But if nobody touches them, you can move them with the UMT during daily business...how long it will take i cant estimate it. But 65GB for .CSV files is a huge amount.
But you are correct, to move them from Rel.2 to BI4 you have to use the UMT.
If you have the ressources and time i would recommend the following (Thats what i usually do with my customers):
1. Setup a Machine (could be a VM) with the same OS and BOE Version (included SPs and FPs) as your production Rel.2
2. Schedule a half day or day Downtime to copy the content 1:1 from the production Rel.2 to the VM Rel.2 with the IW or CMS DB Copy. Or do this after Business Hours.
- With this Size of your FileStore i would recommend the CMS DB copy way.
- Now you have a 1:1 Testing Environment of your Production Environment
3. Use the UMT to migrate from your VM Rel.2 to your BI4 installation
- Here you can see how long it takes
- You can check if the UMT is capable for this 65GB transfer
- Can sort out other possible issues
- Do some other Testing
After you did that you have a perfect estimation on how long the Migration will take and what for issues you are facing. With this information you can decide if you need a downtime or can do it after Business Hours f.e.

Problem With ButtonUI in an Auxiliary Look and Feel

This is my first post to one of these forums, so I hope everything works correctly.
I have been trying to get an axiliary look and feel installed to do some minor tweaking to the default UI. In particular, I need it to work with Windows and/or Metal as the default UI. For the most part I let the installed default look and feel handle things with my code making some colors lighter, darker, etc. I also play with focus issues by adding FocusListeners to some components. I expect my code to work reasonably well no matter what the default look and feel is. It works well with Motif, Metal, and Windows, the only default look and feels I've tested with. What I'm going to post is a stripped down version of what I have been working on. This example makes gross changes to the JButton background and foreground colors in order to illustrate what I've encountered.
I have three source code files. The first, Problem.java, creates a JFrame and adds five buttons to it. One button installs MyAuxLookAndFeel as an auxiliary look and feel using MyAuxButtonUI for the look and feel of JButtons. The next button removes that look and feel. The next button does nothing except print a line to System.out. The next button installs MyAuxLookAndFeel as an auxiliary look and feel using MyModButtonUI for the look and feel of JButtons. The last button removes that look and feel.
The problem is, when I install the first auxiliary look and feel, buttons are no longer tabable. Also, they cannot be invoked by pressing the space button when they're in focus. When I remove the first auxiliary look and feel everything reverts to behaving normally. When I add the "Mod" version, button tabability is fine. The only difference is I've added the following code:
if ( c.isFocusable() ) {
   c.setFocusable(true);
}That strikes me as an odd piece of code to profoundly change the program behavior. Anyway, after adding and removing the "Mod" look and feel, the tababilty is forever fixed. That is, if I subsequently re-install the first look and feel, tababilty works just fine.
The problem with using the space bar to select a focused button is more problematic. My class is not supposed to mess with the default look and feel which may or may not use the space bar to press the button with focus. When the commented code in MyModButtonUI is uncommented, things behave correctly. Even the statement
button.getInputMap().remove( spaceKeyStroke );doesn't mess things up after the auxiliary look and feel is removed. So far I've tested this with JRE 1.4.2_06 under Windows 2000, JRE 1.4.2_10 under Windows XP, and JRE 1.5.0_06 under Windows XP and the behavior is the same.
All of this leads me to two questions.
1. Is my approach fundamentally flawed? I've extended TextUI and ScrollBarUI with no problems. This is the only problem I've encountered with ButtonUI. My real workaround for the space bar issue is better than the one I've supplied in the example, but it certainly is not guaranteed to work for any arbitrary default look and feel.
2. Assuming I have no fundamental problems with my approach, it's possible I've found a real bug. I searched the bug database and couldn't find anything like this. Of course, this is the first time I've tried seasrching the database for a bug so my I'm doing it badly. Has this already been reported as a bug? Is there any reason I shouldn't report it?
What follows is the source code for my example. It's in three files because the two ButtonUI classes must be public in order to work. Thanks for insight you can provide.

The migrated Crystal Report throws "The database logon information for this report is either incomplete or incorrect" error

[ENVIRONMENT]
Product version - BI4.1 SP03
OS - Windows 2008 R2
CMS Database - Oracle 11g
Java Application Server - Tomcat7
[ISSUE]
Using the Upgrade Management Tool to completely migrate a BOXI3.1 SP3+FP3.6 to BI4.1 SP03. The reporting database from both BOXI3.1 and BI4.1 are the same and so is the database logon credential.
When viewing and refresh a migrated Crystal Report, it throws "The viewer could not process an event. The database logon information for this report is either incomplete or incorrect. [] ---- Error code:0 [CRWEB00000119]" error in both BI Launchpad and "The database logon information for this report is either incomplete or incorrect" in scheduled job.
[STEPS TAKEN]
- Update the Database Configuration with the SAME Oracle database password in CMC and "The database logon information for this report is either incomplete or incorrect" issue goes away.
I search the SAP SMP and SCN forum and found no reference on this UMT and Crystal Report database logon problem. Hope any of you have seen this problem and share if there is an ADAPT for it.
Thank you in advance,

Hi,
The BI4.1 SP03 server and client and Crystal Report 2013 SP03 developer and Crystal Report for Enterprise 4.1 SP03 are all installed onto this Windows 2008 R2 server.
I am able to open the migrated report from CMS repository in Crystal Report 2013 SP03 developer and am able to refresh it with database logon password provided. After save it back to the Enterprise, the database logon password field for this report in CMC becomes empty so that I have to enter the database password and choose "Use same database logon as when report is run" when viewing and scheduling report.
What is interesting to me is that the UMT seems to migrate the report along the database logon password because I can see the encrypted password in the report database logon property in CMC. The workaround is to reenter the database logon password in the report database logon property in CMC.
With this said, there are hundreds of the Crystal reports and the workaround would consume lots of manual work by update each report's database logon password in CMC.
For other customers who have more crystal reports, I wonder if there is an automated way to update the crystal report's database logon password on BI4.1 or if this is an isolated incident on my new BI4.1 SP03 environment.
I run UMT in command line to perform livetolive migration, and my steps are listed below
cd "E:\Program Files (x86)\SAP BusinessObjects\SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0\java\apps\upgradeManagementTool\jars\"

Migrating Crystal reports 8.5 to XI

Hi All,
I have to migrate the Crystal Reports from 8.5 to XI which are being called from ASP and using procedures. Please guide:
1. What will be the steps for migration
2. What changes would be required at ASP level if we migrate the reports from 8.5 to XI
3. What are the basic challenges while migrating from 8.5 to XI
4. Please provide any document if any one have for crystal reports migration
Thanks in advance

Hi Shal,
1. What will be the steps for migration
There is no specific steps to migrate your reports, you will have to open your reports in XI and refresh and save. This will migrate your reports from CR8.5 to XI.
2. What changes would be required at ASP level if we migrate the reports from 8.5 to XI
I am not sure but, you may have to change run time files.
3. What are the basic challenges while migrating from 8.5 to XI
If insert any SQL statements in Show Sql these will not take care in XI, rest all you will not have any issues.
4. Please provide any document if any one have for crystal reports migration
If you are using Crystal Enterprise then you will have to migrate it from one enterprise to other using import wizard. Since you are migrating reports, there isno specific document.
Thanks,
Sastry

Look and Feel Issues from NWDS 7.0.9 on Windows 7

Dear Experts,
I have successfully installed a new NWDS 7.0.9 on my 18' inch laptop:
Windows 7 (64Bit)
JDK 1.4.18 (32Bit)
The NWDS starts without any problems however, i am begining to experience some erratic behavior from the projects i have created.
For instance, when i attempt to Edit the Application Properties for a WDJ project, the neccessary fields (and tabs) are not displayed hence i am unable to edit properties like the 'ExpirationTime' or create new one for that matter.
In some cases,i am unable to embed a View into a Window because the neccessary fields to aid my selection of the view i want to embed are not visible for interaction.
The same challenge occurs with EAR project; i am unable to edit 'application-j2ee-engine.xml' fields because they are not visible.
After some troubleshooting,i discovered that the screen resolution may be affecting the 'Look and Feel' of the NWDS itself,
If i reduced the resolution from 1024*768 to a value much more lower, some of these controls are displayed but with the desktop completely messed up.
Does anybody have a solution to my problem because this challenge is affecting my productivity?
Could my issue be as a result of my laptop screen size (i am using an 18'inch laptop)?

Hi Vishal,
first go to the download section in SMP.
Roughly follow this path (translated from german ;-):
SAP Software Distribution Center -> Download -> Further Download-Infos -> SAP Support Package Stacks -> SP Stack Download
From list select SP Stack SAP NetWeaver 2004s
A new window will pop up:
1. Select your stack
2. Usage Selection: Application Server Java
3. Next Step
4. Under SAP Kernel xx bit select your DB and OS
5. Next Step
6. You get a list of all components of you selected items.
Here you'll find NWDS with a filename like JIDE09P_1-10003480.SAR
You know the rest, right?
Regards,
ok

Tweak Javas Look and Feel

Hello everybody,
just wondering if you can help me here, I want to tweak the Look and Feel of some of the objects within a program such a menu backgrounds etc. I think that I am the right lines with this but it does not appear to do anything
I have a class which is called DefaultDEFTheme in this I am declaring the following lines:
public ColorUIResource getRedBackground()/*Could this be problem because getRedBackground does not exist?*/
return new ColorUIResource(255, 0, 0);
Then I have a class that is called DEFLookandFeel and I want to set the colors in the UIDefaults table, so for instance this is the code if I wanted to change the menu background
protected void initSystemColorDefaults(UIDefaults table)
Object[] systemColors = {
"desktop", getDesktopColor(), /* Color of the desktop background */
"activeCaption", getWindowTitleBackground(), /* Color for captions (title bars) when they are active. */
"activeCaptionText", getWindowTitleForeground(), /* Text color for text in captions (title bars). */
"activeCaptionBorder", getPrimaryControlShadow(), /* Border color for caption (title bar) window borders. */
"inactiveCaption", getWindowTitleInactiveBackground(), /* Color for captions (title bars) when not active. */
"inactiveCaptionText", getWindowTitleInactiveForeground(), /* Text color for text in inactive captions (title bars). */
"inactiveCaptionBorder", getControlShadow(), /* Border color for inactive caption (title bar) window borders. */
"window", getWindowBackground(), /* Default color for the interior of windows */
"windowBorder", getControl(), /* ??? */
"windowText", getUserTextColor(), /* ??? */
"menu", getMenuBackground(), /* Background color for menus, I am right in presuming this does not change? */
"menuText", getMenuForeground(), /* Text color for menus */
"text", getWindowBackground(), /* Text background color */
"textText", getUserTextColor(), /* Text foreground color */
"textHighlight", getTextHighlightColor(), /* Text background color when selected */
"textHighlightText", getHighlightedTextColor(), /* Text color when selected */
"textInactiveText", getInactiveSystemTextColor(), /* Text color when disabled */
"control", getControl(), /* Default color for controls (buttons, sliders, etc) */
"controlText", getControlTextColor(), /* Default color for text in controls */
"controlHighlight", getControlHighlight(), /* Specular highlight (opposite of the shadow) */
"controlLtHighlight", getControlHighlight(), /* Highlight color for controls */
"controlShadow", getControlShadow(), /* Shadow color for controls */
"controlDkShadow", getControlDarkShadow(), /* Dark shadow color for controls */
"scrollbar", getControl(), /* Scrollbar background (usually the "track") */
"info", getPrimaryControl(), /* ToolTip Background */
"infoText", getPrimaryControlInfo() /* ToolTip Text */
for (int i = 0; i < systemColors.length; i += 2)
table.put( (String) systemColors, systemColors[i + 1]);
UIManager.put("Button.select", getButtonSelectColor());
// Set the color for selected button */
UIManager.put("Button.background", getButtonBackground());
/* Set the color for selected button */
UIManager.put("Menu.background", getRedBackground());
/* Set the color for the menu to red background*/
Then further on I set this:
public static ColorUIResource getRedBackground(){ return getCurrentTheme().getRedBackground(); }
But i have left in the getMenuBackground above it, I have also tried to take it out but nothing happens.
I also have a class called DEFTheme and in this I declare the following
public ColorUIResource getRedBackground()
return new ColorUIResource(255, 0, 0 );
Yet after changing all of this nothing ever happens. Am I going about this the completley wrong way ie should I change the colors in the DEFTheme and thats it?
Please please help, this is becoming a real problem and I cannot find any relevant resources!!
Thanks so much in advance,
Z.

Yes, its a crosspost, but this is the correct forum since this a Swing related question. Your crosspost comment belongs in the other forum.
