Migrating Reports - Changing SQL Server Connection

Post Author: lkamenir
CA Forum: Publishing
I have reports running in CR XI Server (Enterprise) in development. When I am ready to move these to testing (and point the datasource to a different SQL Server), how can I modify the connection (server name) which the reports will use? I am currently trying the Publishing Wizard which gives me an option to change login credentials, but NOT the SQL Server Name. Any ideas?

Hello,
I don't recognize those variables as CR ones so it's likely something the original developer is setting in code.
You'll have to discuss with that person.
If your have SDK issues then post your question to one of the .NET or Java SDK forums.
Thank you

Help with Crystal Reports changing SQL Server

I am doing a web site cutover to a new server for a client and have the server up and running using crystal reports server xi r2 sp2 under windows server 2003r2 32bit.
When I run a report via the webpage it generates a blank page.
I've edited the old web developers crystal report files and updated the database path howerver when i type in the new SQL server and authenticate to it using the SA account it then pops up a window asking me to enter values
has items such as
@sUserID
@sSubUserID
@iSessionID
etc
the only way i can continue through this is to check a box for each value 'set to null' which i dont' think is correct.
What values should I be putting in these areas or should I be getting this infomation from the previous developer?
much appreciated

Login failed for user '(null)'. Reason: Not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection

"[DBNETLIB] Login failed for user '(null)'. Reason: Not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection"
After patches applied on patch Tuesday the database reports the above error.
All accounts are domain accounts and SQLServer uses Windows auth.
DCDIAG show no errors
All servers and DC have been restarted,
Message in db log confirms the connection is being denied due to trust.
Event log shows same rejection

Can connect if new admin account connect to server in terminal server session and uses UDL wizard or any other tool including isql.
New standard user also fails to connect.
NOTES:
I removed the SSL patch and the IE security update to see if that was an issue.

Hi Tony,
Srry but No. We just installed the monthly updates.
I went back and found I had missed removing a patch. I missed the rollup for Windows Server 2003:
Event Type: Information
Event Source: NtServicePack
Event Category: None
Event ID: 4382
Date:  3/12/2015
Time:  12:26:04 PM
User:  NETTEST\admin
Computer: DATA1
Description:
Windows Server 2003 KB954920 was removed from your computer, and the previous Windows Server 2003 configuration was restored.
After I removed that is still didn't work but after about five minutes it started working.
I guess I ned to report that to MS after I research what might be changed to make the patch work.
Every time I get stuck and ask for help it seems to be just before I stumble on the solution.
Thanks for replying.
Well - maybe this will help someone else.
Thanks again for replying Tony

Unix: SQL Server Connection with ODBC (CRsqls24.so)

Hi,
I almost find no information how to set up a SQL Server connection using ODBC on a unix platform.
This is what I get when I try to refresh my crystal report on my BO Server (4.1):
"The viewer could not process an event. Error in file XXX.rpt:
Error loading database information"
.) is the port number really separated from the server by comma? (http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/boexir4/en/xi4sp10_data_acs_en.pdf)
.) where is the right place to speficy the SQL Server isntance name (SQLInstanceA in this case)? I didn't find any information about that?
[MYDB]
Driver=/opt/BOBJ/xir4/sap_bobj/enterprise_xi40/aix_rs6000/odbc/lib/CRsqls24.so
(for 64bit: Driver=/opt/BOBJ/xir4/sap_bobj/enterprise_xi40/aix_rs6000_64/odbc/lib/CRsqls24.so)

Thanks!

First off, let me say that in the past (pre v9) when I've tried to use Windows logins with datasources, it never worked. But that doesn't mean that they finally got it working, just that I stopped trying.
What I was referring to in my post is that once you have CF installed, you need to go to the Windows Services screen, open each of the CF processes, click on the LOGIN tab, and change it from the default services login to be whatever WIndows login you have setup in Active Directory. Then restart CF so that it's process is now running under that login with its credentials. Then go to SQL Admin and setup that same login and give it access to the database you want to access. Then go to CF Datasource menu and setup the datasource as you did previously. If CF's support of Windows authentication for datasources does in fact now work, you should be in business.
If it doesn't work, then you'll need to do as I said earlier, and setup SQL logins for the CF servers to use, and then in the CF Datasource setup screens you would specify that login info in the same way that you would have given it the "sa" login info.

1st scenario
When in a runtime, it's keep appear a dialog box. This dialog box ask me to suppy Server, User ID, Password and Database. Once all information is supplied, my report display the data as expected
2nd scenario
I change my report using OLE DB (ADO) -> Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server -> checked on Integrated Security. I just choose Server, and Database. I assume me using Windows Authentication
When in a runtime, there's no dialog box as above. My report display the data as expected. really cool
Look's like, when report using SQL Server Authentication there's some problem. but, when report using Windows Authentication, it's fine.
I'm looking for comment. Please help me

Hello,
MS SQL Server 2008 requires you to install the MS Client Tools for 2008.
Once install then update all of your reports to use the SQL Native 10 as the OLE DB driver.
The try again, if it still fails search, lots of sample log on code in this forum.

Data Migration - SSIS Transfer SQL Server Objects Task or something else

Can someone please kindly help me with this.
Scenario
I have a requirement to transfer selected tables and views (with a specific schema) between two databases which reside in two different servers. In the interest of clarity I will call my databases DB_A and DB_B respectively. Please note that these databases
are NOT on the same server.
Transfer of these objects (tables & views) happens once a month. 99% of the objects in question will be of the same name and schema between the two databases as the ones migrated from the previous month. However, metadata definitions may change on DB_A
and those changes are supposed to be reflected on DB_B along with the associated data. This therefore means that each time a transfer/migration happens; objects in DB_B are dropped first and completely replaced by objects from DB_A.
Problem
What is the best way to achieve this?
My first attempt has been a go on the Transfer SQL Server Objects Task
in SSIS. The problem that I have is that when using Transfer SQL Server Objects Task
I don’t know how to filter objects in DB_A so that only objects with a specified schema can be migrated.
Transfer SQL Server Objects Task appears to be the best solution to me to accomplish my requirement but I can’t filter the desired objects by schema. Someone suggested using C# but my C# skills are not that eloquent.
May someone kindly help please, or possibly suggest any other way which can be handy to fulfil my requirements.
Many thanks,
Mpumelelo

Hi Prashanth
Thanks for your response. There is one problem though in my case. I’m sorry I forgot to mention this in the original question. When the objects are moved from BD_A to DB_B the schema in DB_B changes. That is, schemas are not the same between the source and
the destination database. How do I handle that with the solution that you have suggested?
Many thanks,
Mpumelelo

Why is my application name not showing up in the SQL Server connection properties?

If I understand correctly I should be able to have the application name from application.cfc show up in my SQL Server connection string (i.e. in the program_name column of sp_who2) if I go in to the DSN advanced settings and check "Application Name" under Client Settings.
However having done that I still don't see anything in the program name columns of the sp_who2 result set. Any ideas?
Thanks!

I drew my shape, then went to the GRADIENT panel and clicked in the default gradient box to apply the default white to black gradient. Normally you can click on either color to change it using the ways I described in my original post but those are not available to me. The only way I could add a color was to drag it from the SWATCHES panel into the gradient colors slider.
This means that I cannot make changes to colors directly in the gradient panel like before. I have to make changes to the individual colors but clicking on the color in the gradient slider then going to the COLOR panel and adjusting the color there. Or by dragging in a whole new color from the COLOR or SWATCHES panels. This is really killing my work flow.

Hi,
According to your post, an error occurred when you connect SQL Server in SharePoint.
We can do as follows:
1. Try to replace Integrated Security=SSPI with Integrated Security=True
2. Check whether there is <identity impersonate="true" /> under <system.web> tag in web.config.
Here are two articles for you to take a look at:

How can I migrate data from SQL Server 6,5 to Oracle 8?

We have a web site based on Microsoft SQL Server 6.5.Now we plan
to migrate the database to Oracle 8.
We have redesigned the tables structure and created tables under
Oracle 8, so we only need to migrate data from SQL Server.
We've exported data from SQL Server to text files.
How can we import data from files and restore to Oracle tables.
Is there a solution which let us to import data for particular
table columns,not all columns?
We'll be appreciated if somene can give suggestions.

I'll try the Oracle sqlloader utility first.

Report with sql server database

hi
i m trying to create a report for sql server database
first time it was developed successfully but when i tried to run it next time it throws error
REP-4100 : Failed to execute data source
JDBCPDS -62008 : SQL Server Error:
S1000 [Microsoft SQL Server Driver] Connection is busy with results for another hstmt
now today when i tried to develop a new report it shows two new errors:
1.
REP-4100 : Failed to execute data source
JDBCPDS -62008 : SQL Server Error:
S0002[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Invalid object name
2.
REP-4100 : Failed to execute data source
JDBCPDS -62008 : SQL Server Error:

Srini,
yes you can use report Buider with Sql Server through jdbc driver.
When you define the report datasource, you just have to set the JDBC conection infos.

Can Reporting Services 2005 report on SQL Server 2012 database?

We would like to upgrade our SQL Server from Standard 2005 to Enterprise/Standard 2012. Unfortunately, we also have a lot of reports based on Reporting Services 2005. If possible we would like avoid upgrading them at this time.
Is it possible to run Reporting Services 2005 of SQL Server 2012? If yes then is there pre-requiste like drivers or dll or any other to connect SSRS 2005 to SQL server 2012?
If we run Reporting Services 2005 of SQL Server 2012 then do we will face performance lag issue due to version difference of SSRS 2005 and SQL server 2012?

MDM-EP SQL/Server Connection Properties

I created a system in Enterprise Portal(EP) which I want to have connection properties to my local MDM Server which is my SQ/Server on my laptop.
Using the Connection Test, EP cannot connect. I've tried 'local', the SQL Server name (in my case USTEM05NB028939) and even the IP address of my machine... no can do! I do have an alias set up... I suspect that the Connection Properties for a local MDM server are illusive... does anyone have the protocol for a local SQL/Server connection?

Hi Tom
solution is as below
1) Please ensure EP is updated with latest Business Package of MDM 5.5 SP03.   Download the below Business Packages from www.SWDC.SAP.COM/Server using Service Market Place ID.
                   a. com.sap.mdm.tech.mdm4j.sda
                   b. com.sap.mdm.tech.connector.sda
                   c. BPMDMTECH.sca
                   d.BPMDMAPPL.sca
2) Ensure your "hosts" file (C:\winnt\system32\drivers\etc\hosts) on your laptop (MDM Server) has the IP address and hostname of the EP Server similarly update the same on EP server with MDM IP address and server details.
               ( Ex USTEM05NB028939   192.168.12.20) etc in the hosts file
3) Ensure all Java related patches of MDM are applied on EP which will enable WAS to identify the MDM IViews.
4) Go to MDM Console and check the Repository details of the repository that needs to integrate with EP. Identify the Repository Port that is running the Repository. Here usually if we have more than one repository in the MDM server we give repository ports like 1234,1235 etc but its imp to leave 5 ports for every repository example if the first repository is using 1234 as repository port then better user 1240 for the next repository.
5) Ensure you have accessed MDM Server Repository thru the Admin account of MDM Server from EP.
6) Also change the Windows Authentication mode of SQL Server to Administrator Mode for SA in SQL Server.
7) Also kindly mention the 'MDM 5.5 Host Server' as 'USTEM05NB028939' (If USTEM05NB028939 your MDM Server name) rather than Local on your EP.

30EA2 - Feedback on Microsoft SQL Server connectivity

I think Oracle SQL Developer is great! But I also think it could be better.
I believe Microsoft SQL Server connectivity in SQL Developer could/should be stronger/simpler if, for no other reason, than the simpler it is the more likely there will be converts.
In Help -> Check for Updates ... I'd propose an Update Centre something like External DB connectivity or Third Party DB connectivity. In other words, make it obvious.
Failing that, or perhaps in addition, instead of calling it JTDS JDBC Driver 11.1.1.58.17 why not Microsoft SQL Server connectivity, with JTDS ... in the description?
And then, this is the big one, make installing the JTDS JDBC driver update actually enable connectivity to MS SQL Server.
Initially trying to connect to a MS SQL DB, having installed no updates, I get the error:
An error was encountered performing the requested operation:
Driver class not found.
Verify the Driver location
Vendor code 0
SQL Developer "knows" I'm trying to connect to a MS SQL DB, so why not a slightly more helpful error?
After installing the JTDS JDBC Driver I do get a slightly more helpful error (in that it contains key words I can Google):
An error was encountered performing the requested operation:
I/O Error: SSO Failed: Native SSPI library not loaded. Check the java.library.path system property.
Vendor Code 0
Connectivity only begins to work after I do this/these additional step/s:
Copy the file 'jtds-1.2.2-dist\x86\SSO\ntlmauth.dll' from the unzipped JTDS --> <SQL Developer Home>\jdk\jre\bin. Then restart SQL Developer.
With thanks to:
http://www.dbforums.com/microsoft-sql-server/1612362-java-sql-sqlexception-i-o-error-sso-failed-native-sspi-library-not-loaded.html#post6368137
Then, and only then, it works just fine.
With thanks for Oracle SQL Developer,

Well to be honest there is no good reason to use access to connect to PeopleSoft But we see the same problem in a totally unrelated program called RFGEN or even Crystal Reports through odbc. The Problem is I did not want to field all the questions about RFGEN.(what it is, how it works, must be something wrong with it etc...) I would have thought that someone has connected and used Access. RFGEN is a third scanning System that works with our existing system on SQL Server and we want to keep it and use it with the PeopleSoft.

ODBC errors for Oracle Migration Workbench and SQL Server 2000 on Windows

Hi all-
I setup a new ODBC connection for the Oracle 10g Migration Workbench to MS SQL Server 2000 on Windows XP and keep getting the following errors when I try to
either test the new ODBC connection to MS SQL Server 2000 for use with the Oracle Migration Workbench tool. Goal is to fix these errors so that I can migrate our test SQL Server 2000 databases to Oracle 10g.
Current configuration
- Oracle 10.1 Migration Workbench
- Oracle 10g Database (target)
- MS SQL Server 2000 (source database)
-Windows XP
-ODBC 3.85.1117 driver for Windows XP with SQL Server and Oracle
Errors:
I. When I test the ODBC connection:
Microsoft SQL Server ODBC Driver Version 03.85.1117
Running connectivity tests...
Attempting connection
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][TCP/IP Sockets]Specified SQL server not found.
TESTS FAILED!
Now here is what has me totally confused:
I can use the command line ISQL to access the database on the server and IP is all correct and port is available. So I can access the SQL Server database fine it is when I try to setup ODBC that it gives me problems.
Any tips how to get this ODBC working?
Thanks

1. Jing Jin. If you had READ the post you would have seen that installing later versions is NOT an option.
2. Not supported does NOT mean does NOT work, as Balmukund pointed out in the referenced thread. The site that this databases supports is using ASP which is also NOT supported by Microsoft. As it turns out Balmukund's solution actually turns
out to be the correct solution. I installed SS2K and its Service pack 4 on the machine last night. Good answer Balmukund. as we say in the Navy, "BRAVO ZULU!!" which means "WELL DONE!!
3. Tom Li I just posted the question less than 48 hours ago. My last post was less than 24 hours ago. I think I have the right to be given the opportunity to determine whether a reply is the answer or not. I understand you don't like unanswered
posts sitting around for weeks, months or years. (I don't like it either as I have a few that are still unanswered after several years.) But you should not be showing replies as answers before I even get a chance to see them, much less try them out.
You should also not be showing replies as answers which don't address the criteria of the question. I specifically stated that I had to install SS2K. I went on to state, "And before anyone asks I need to install this version because that is what
the customer is using and I need to duplicate their databases." So the correct answer, if in fact SS2K did not work on Windows 7, would have been a virtual machine answer, as suggested on the thread Balmukund referenced. So before you mark a reply
as an answer read the question.
