Missing column at the end of report in Crystal report server 2008 VI

When we run the reports in Crystal report server 2008 VI, for some reports we see the last column is missing some characters. I have few reports that show numbers with decimals at the end of the report, but in CMC it cuts the number at the start of the decimal. I only see the numbers upto the decimal. When I run the same report in Crystal designer, everything works fine.
I had the same problem with CR developer 2008 and I used the following code to fix it:
Private Sub SetMargins(ByVal myReportDocument As ReportDocument, ByVal left As Integer, ByVal top As Integer, ByVal right As Integer, ByVal bottom As Integer)
        Dim myPageMargins As PageMargins
        myPageMargins = myReportDocument.PrintOptions.PageMargins
        myPageMargins.leftMargin = left
        myPageMargins.topMargin = top
        myPageMargins.rightMargin = right
        myPageMargins.bottomMargin = bottom
        myReportDocument.PrintOptions.ApplyPageMargins(myPageMargins)
    End Sub
Any help is greatly appreciated.

HI Don,
Install the same default printer as what you have onto the CRS server then what you should be the same. Also, which viewer are you using, ActiveX, DHTML or Java on the CRS Server?
Thanks
Don

Issue in calculating sum on a column at the end of the report in Pivot view

Hi,
I have some columns like Hierarchy column A, Non Hierarchical columns B, C and a measure D.
In Pivot view under rows I have placed columns A,B and C in Columns and D in measures. If I try to calculate sum of values at the end of report by using option Sum At the End on columns we are getting an error that grouping by function should be in the select clause of the query.
If I duplicate the column C and put it in rows then I am able to see totals at the end but values are displayed in multiple rows and it won't meet our requirement.
Any suggestion or workarounds on this will be helpful.
Thanks,
Vj

Hi,
let me explain it better..
Col A: GL Segment Hierarchy which will display Level1 to Level n Names
Col B: Level n Code.
Col C: Fiscal Period
Col D: Amount
Now col A and B are in Rows, col c in columns and col D in measures in a pivot view.
Issue is we are unable to have total of measure values at the end of report by using sum at the end.

Need to place a variable value at the end of report heading in BI 7

Dear All,
We have to place a variable value at the end of the report heading and the value should get refreshed whenever we change the variable by using "Change Variable Value". I have created a macro and the value will get triggered unless and until we click on any where on a sheet. But, we want to automate this one by using a macro.
Ex: Quarterly TA Host Country Details As Of "Variable Date" Variable is created on TA Date characteristic. User can enter date on Pop up window box at the time of changing a variable TA Date. We need changed date at the end of the Report heading Qua----
Please suggest me on how to place variable value at the end of report heading by using a macro.

No need to use Macro. You can use text variable.
Goto the Query Description and click on the Text variable icon.
Create a text variable of processing type as REPLACEMENT PATH and replace it with the characteristic for which you have a ready for input variable that will be eneter by the user.
This will populate the text variable with the value entered by teh user.
Use this text variabkle along with the Query Description. So your description will look something like REPORT_TITLE&TXT_VAR&
Hope this helps.

How to hide the columns at the end user level thru personalization

Hi all
how I can hide the columns that are displayed on the portal. Any personalize option for the end user? Any righ click or some thing?
I am looking at hiding columns not while developing the iViews / Pages, But in the browsers as the end user.
i can hide the columns what ever i want while creating the iViews for MDM data. but we cant provide the content administrator role to the end user for hiding the columns what ever they want. they want to hide the columns thru pesonalization option at the end user level.
Can you please let me know whether we can able to hide the columns at the end user level thru personalization ?? is it posible with standard iViews??
Regards
Sunil

Hi Sunil,
I understood your requirement properly and seems valid and I tried this at my end but i didnt get the solution. Field list is not visible in Personalize option. I dont think it is possible with MDM standard iViews.
I was thinking an alternative is if some how we manage to give the permissions to end user only on Result Set iView but if it would be possible it will not be a good design.
Lets wait for some inputs from others.

PFRD 11.1.1.4 - How to stop the In-process Reports Server

I'm running an "out-of-the-box" PFRD 11.1.1.4 installation in Windows XP SP3.
According with documentation:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17904_01/bi.1111/b32121/pbr_strt006.htm#BEHDJFHD
To directly start or stop the in-process Reports Server using a URL, enter the following in your Web browser:
http://machine_name:port/reports/rwservlet/startserver
http://machine_name:port/reports/rwservlet/stopserver
startserver works.
stopserver returns:
REP-50171 : Authentication failed.
Tried
http://machine_name:port/reports/rwservlet/stopserver?authid=weblogic/passwd
same error.
Commented the line:

in rwserver.conf.
Same error.
The only uncomented elements in "rwservlet.properties" (original configuration) are
<server>rep_wls_reports_pfurtado-lap_asinst_1</server>
<singlesignon>no</singlesignon>
<inprocess>yes</inprocess>
Did any of you managed to stop "in-process" reports server using the reports servlet?
What credentials did you use?
Thanks & Best Regards
Paulo

Thanks RZ!
The line you mentioned was already as you described.
According with the documentation:
[Starting and Stopping Reports Server|http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17904_01/bi.1111/b32121/pbr_strt001.htm#i1005629]
If Reports Server is running as an in-process server through the Reports Servlet, issue the following URL:
http://your_host_name:port_number/reports/rwservlet/stopserver?authid=admin user/admin password
Note:
authid is Reports Server's administration user name and password. In Oracle Reports 11g Release 1 (11.1.1), the default security is based on standards-based Java EE security model through Oracle Platform Security Services. For a non-secure Reports Server, this user is defined in the identifier element.
I added the identifier element to rwserver.conf and restarted WLS_REPORTS, but after this the in-process reports server failed to start with the usual generic exception.
I finally found the missing step in:
How To Secure Showjobs Web Command In A Non Secured Reports Server In Oracle Report 11g? (Doc ID 1242614.1)
The thing is that the identifier element has to be placed in the right location inside rwserver.conf:
The needed change is:
FROM
<queue maxQueueSize="1000"/>
<pluginParam name="mailServer" value="%MAILSERVER_NAME%"/>
TO
<queue maxQueueSize="1000"/>
<identifier encrypted="no">....type here your user/password....</identifier>
<pluginParam name="mailServer" value="%MAILSERVER_NAME%"/>
So although using the default non-secure reports server, the identifier element has to be present in rwserver.conf for rwservlet/stopserver to work as described above.
Otherwise the needed authentication will fail as described.

Paulo

REP-52266: The in-process Reports Server rep_myhostname failed to start

Hi Everyone,
My name is John and I've a small 10g report configuration issue which I would like to share and, hopefully, some of you might already have come across it and able to assist and guide me through it.
First, I've installed Oracle Developer Suite 10g 10.1.2.0.2 together with Report Builder 10.1.2.0.2 and Oracle Forms Developer 10.1.2.0.2 onto a 32bit Window 2000 Professional machine.
I've tried to run the following URL which test for the servlet connectivity and it returns fine with all the valid reports servlet commands page.
http://myhostname:8889/reports/rwservlet
However, as I've tried to run the 'test.rdf' report using the following link:
http://myhostname:8889/reports/rwservlet?destype=cache&desformat=PDF&report=test.rdf&userid=user/pass@host
And it returns the following error on the browser:
REP-52266: The in-process Reports Server rep_myhostname failed to start.oracle.reports.RWException: IDL:oracle/reports/RWException:1.0
Then I set trace option on in the myhostname.conf file and restart the OC4J instance. And the trace file has the following results:

I've not changed any of the report's related configuration files and the java version of the machine is 1.4.2_06. I do not know whether I need to apply a patch for this particular Developer Suite version or is there something which I've not done in terms of post-installation tasks. Thank you for your time and effort. Any feedback is much appreciated as I've been spending a number of days to solve this problem. Thank you and have a nice day.
Kind Regards,
John

Hi,
Thanks for your reply and here is the output of the rwEng-0.trc file. I could not find anything "interesting" as you mentioned. Please let me know if you find anything missing in there. Also, currently there is only one network printer setup on the machine. Can you please elaborate on the printer bit as I'm unsure of what to troubleshoot. Also, I forgot to inform you that I have a previous version of Developer 2000 Form and Report installed prior to the 10g Developer Suite installation. Does it ring a bell to any other problem? Thank you again for your time and effort. Have a nice day.
Kind Regards,
John

How to debug a form (servlet) in the Forms and Reports Server

Hi:
I have a new install of an application that ran perfectly on a different host using the Forms and Reports Server.
I have installed the FRS on the new host and it is working fine. I can run the test form.
When I run my actual forms app, I only get a blank screen in the browser and on the status bar it reports "Applet Started'.
Is there a way I can turn on debugging or something so I can see at what point it is failing or why the form is not opening properly?
Any advise would be appreciated.
Many thanks.
Bruce

Thanks for the reply Frank. I have looked all through the Start menu but see no "Configuration and Migration". I assume it's because I only installed the Forms and Reports option, so I only have Forms Services, Reports Services, and the Universal Installer. No big deal - I've already setup tnsnames manually. I just like to use the Net Assistant when I can.

Reports 11gR2 - The in-process Reports Server failed to start

Hello,
I recently installed the new Forms Reports 11gR2 on an Oracle Linux 5 update 6 64bit. Firstly, I installed the JDK1.6.29 64bit. Then, I installed the Weblogic Server 10.3.5 (jar version). Finally, I installed the Forms Reports 11gR2. After installation I reboot the machine. When it came up I manually started the Weblogic Server (10.3.5), the WLS_Forms, the WLS_Reports and OPMN. Everything looks fine except the in-process reports server.
I can access the page (http://apps8.orasys.gr:8888/reports/rwservlet) without any problems but when I try to access the showjobs (http://apps8.orasys.gr:8888/reports/rwservlet/showjobs?)
I get this message “REP-52266: The in-process Reports Server rep_wls_reports_apps8_asinst_1 failed to start.oracle.reports.RWException: IDL:oracle/reports/RWException:1.0”
The status of the In-process Reports Server is down. When I try to start it, it fails. This is what I get in the log files:

REP-52266: The in-process Reports Server rep_adminserver_ikit_asinst_1 failed to start.oracle.reports.RWException: IDL:oracle/reports/RWException:1.0

Hi,
I have installed oracle forms and reports 11gR2 on Windows 7 Professional 64bit (and configured in development mode), the forms are working fine but when i run a report i get this message
REP-52266: The in-process Reports Server rep_adminserver_ikit_asinst_1 failed to start.oracle.reports.RWException: IDL:oracle/reports/RWException:1.0

I was trying to add a new destination:
<destination class="oracle.reports.server.DesMail" destype="mail"/>
I couldn't make it work , so I commented my changes.
In fact, I should have gone back to a backup file , as weblogic seemed to have changed the file itself!! (attributes of the xml tags were in different order, and more things ...) but just undoing what I have done did the trick.
This file seems to be quite picky, I left this tag uncommented
</pluginParam>
and the same REP-5226 error happened.

Crystal Report Server 2008 Import Issues - Missing report schedules/history

Hello all,
I have recently on a test machine installed Crystal Report Server 2008 V0. I then created several test reports and put them on the server and created schedules and a history for each one.
Once this was done I exported the information into a BIAR file. Uninstalled CR Server 2008 V0 and installed CR Server 2008 V1 SP3.
I then imported this BIAR file. After the import my reports are there, but all schedules and history are lost? Is there a way around this? How can I ensure all schedules are brought over in the import?
Please note I followed this workflow: http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/index?rid=/library/uuid/5048d962-8fa6-2c10-e2ae-d32b3562cb9c

Good day Philippe,
You have been able to solve my issue, thank you! In following the instructions I didn't notice the "Import all instances" tick box, I simply assumed hitting select all would work and glazed right over it. So this was certainly user error on my part.
Thank you so much for the information!

Crystal Reports Server 2008 dispose not closing document

Hey everyone,
I;m running some reports through Crystal reports 2008 server (no service packs) using the RAS sdk and Java.
This was working swimmingly for a while until yesterday when the server hosting the RAS and app server fell over. I tracked it down to a problem with the RAS server. The error i got in my logs was General Exception, Report SDK Exception Not enough memory for operation. I reran the process and when i watched task manager the memory being allocated to crystalras.exe went through the roof! it went from 50k to 1.8g of ram in under 10 minutes.
I tried lots of the other suggestions in here for the errors about memory that are similar to mine (increasing the heap memory etc.) and none of them worked.
One thing i noticed though is that when I run the process and watch the metrics page of the RAS server on the management console the number of Open documents does not decrease even though i am 100% totally and utterly calling .close and .dsipose after every report i open. Definitely. Ive debugged it a million times and it is calling these methods. It is successfully releasing the connections fine but does not seem to releasing the open documents. After the Open documents metric went down to 0 (im presuming after a timeout) the memory that crystalras.exe was reduced. I then changed the timeout tag in CRConfig.xml to 1 minute to see would this help out any but the open documents did not timeout any faster.
Would i be right in thinking that these open documents would be causing my problem of the aggregated memory? Im at my wits end here so any piece of help is greatly appreciated!

Hi Ted,
Thank you for getting back to me, i was on vacation there for a while so that is why i didnt get back to you.
When I call reportClientDocument.isOpen() just before i dispose of the report it is true and after i dispose of it it correclty returns false.
I am really stressing out over this as we are reduced to running 500 reports through the server (one after another) and then stopping the process and restarting the RAS server and then running another 500 reports.
crystalras.exe gets up to about 2g of ram consumed for only 500 reports.
I even changed some of the timeout settings on the settings page of the management console to see would they timeout and release the memory but alas it didnt release as much as a byte. I left it for 3 days and it didnt deallocate one piece of memory.
Im currently investigating is there some way from my code that I can restart the RAS server, either through the SDK or through a windows process or scheduled task.
Ted, as far as i can see there are no service packs for Crystal Reports Server 2008, is that right? when i go to the downloads page there only ones listed for release X1.
Thank you for your help.
J.

Crystal Reports Server 2008 trial install - unable to log into CMC

Hi,
I have been looking for a way to host my existing Crystal XI reports on our in house web application rather than using a thick client application with cview. I was told that the options were Crystal Reports Server 2008 or Visual Studio 2008. I have downloaded trials of both and am currently testing.
After installing Crystal Reports Server 2008, including MySQL DB and Tomcat web server, i am unable to log into any of the applications with the error that:
Error: Server SCOTTPC:6400 not found or server may be down (FWM 01003) null
After seeing this i checked the services on my test machine and found that the Server Intelligence Agent was not started. So i tried starting it and recieved the generic windows message:
Service on local computer started and them stopped. Some services stop automatically if they have no work to do ... etc
After multiple reboots and reinstalls i am still unable to use any aspect of the application as i am unable to log into the CMC as the server is down. Now i am new to Crystal reports and web servers so have a very limited knowledge of whats going on here - i am primarily a DBA. From what i can tell MySQL does not even appear to be installed but i cannot be sure.
Any suggestions?

ok... after research it seems a DSN has not been created.
Also when trying to start the server intelligence service i see the following in the application event viewer:
[Node Name: SCOTTPC]
[User Name: SYSTEM]
Server Intelligence Agent has failed to initialize because the bootstrap file C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86\_boe_SCOTTPC.bootstrap is missing information about the CMS cluster. Please restore your bootstrap file from your backup.
i have recreated the bootstrap file but still get the same error.
i have SQL Server 2005 installed on this rig as well - could this be causing the issue? Would it be better for me to integrate this to SQL Server rather than using the MySQL DB that comes with Crystal server 2008?

Installing Crystal reports server 2008 v1 with iis

Hi All
I have downloaded a trial version of Crystal reports server 2008 v1 to install on our server.
We are runnning server 2003 and have iis version 6.0 installed.
I have run the installation wizard on our test server but when i get to the "Select Web Application Server" screen i am not given the option to select "Deploy the application in WACS" as the documentation suggests i should.
I continued with the installation using the "IIS Web ApplicationServer option" and selected the default iis website to deploy to but when i try to run the CMC and InfoView I just get the message "Internet Explorer cannot display the Webpage"
We have asp.net v1.1 installed and Application server is installed in windows components.
Does anyone have any idea what may be causing my problems. It is my first time install ing CRS so i may have missed something.
Any help would be appreciated.

CRS 2008 requires 2.0 framework to run
