Problem connecting to salesforce with crystal reports

I have downloaded the java Java SE Development Kit 6u7 (First Customer Ship) and then downloaded crystal reports. Every time I try to connect to saleforce via CR it takes about 10 minutes and then I get this error message: invalid argument provided, java server startup failure, verify the path (jdk), classpath,and IORfilelocation in the crconfig.xml file, In addition verify you are using JDK 1.5
What can I do to solve this problem? Please help me! Thank you

Fahad,
I do not think you need to reinstall the CR application, but I would suggest to apply the following knowledgebase article steps. Couple of comments: 1. you do not have to delete CRConfig.xml on the second step - just rename it to CRConfig.old 2. You do not have to download new driver - you already have one, just reinstall it.
1197347 - Error: "Invalid Argument provided. Details: Java Server startup failure.."
when connecting to Salesforce.com from Crystal Reports XI
Symptom
When attempting to connect to a valid Salesforce.com professional account from Crystal Reports XI, the following error message appears:
"Invalid Argument provided. Details: Java Server startup failure. Please verify the PATH (JDK), CLASSPATH and IORFileLocation properties in the CRConfig.xml file. In addition, please verify you are using JDK 1.4."
Cause
The error message is caused by an older version of the Crystal Reports Salesforce.com driver not connecting with professional accounts. Other error messages may include "Failed to establish a connection."
Resolution
To resolve this issue, follow these steps:
Close Crystal Reports.
Verify that you have at least version 1.4 of the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) by opening Internet Explorer and clicking on Tools > Sun Java Console. If the Java Console Message says "Java Plug-in 1.4.0_00. Using JRE version 1.4.0_00 Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM" or higher you are using the correct version of the JRE.
Go to the appropriate directory for your version of CRXI and back up the CRConfig.xml file, then delete it.
If you are using CRXI R1, the directory will be C:\Program Files\Common Files\Business Objects\3.0\Java, and if you are using CRXI R2 the directory will be C:\Program Files\Business Objects\Common\3.5\Java.
Reopen Crystal Reports; CR will recreate the CRConfig.xml file when you reopen the program. When the "Installing" message box disappears, close CR.
Search for sfdc.msi on your computer. This is the installation file for the Salesforce.com driver. When you double-click this installation file, you will be asked whether you want to repair or uninstall the Salesforce.com driver. Uninstall the driver. Delete all existing sfdc.zip files or unzipped sfdc files and directories including the sfdc.msi file you just executed.
Download the latest version of the Crystal Reports Salesforce.com driver, available from http://ftp1.businessobjects.com/outgoing/sales/sfdc_driver.zip. Unzip the zipfile to a convenient temporary location that you will be able to find; for example, your desktop.
Run the new sfdc.msi installation file; the installation file will install the latest version of the Salesforce.com drivers.
You should now be able to connect with Salesforce.com from CRXI using a valid username and password.

Problems using Dynamic parameters with Crystal Reports and SBO 8.8

Has anyone been able to successfully use a dynamic parameter in Crystal Reports with 8.8 using the Business One connector? When we try we get an additional logon to the database that pops up and the logon fails.
We need this because we want to return live lists of PO documents from the server for selection. We are also trying to use nested dynamic parameters, because we want to first return the PO document based on the PO number, and then chose specific rows based on a field value in POR1.
It works if we don't use the Business One connector, but then the report doesn't function properly inside of SAP.
Any ideas would be appreciated.

I have tried using tokens but they are too simple. I need something like a subselect where you first select one value and then another that is a subset of those values. Apparently the tokens can't even use a "where" clause.
SAP dances around Dynamic parameters, but won't come out and say that they can't be used with the B1 connector. If that is the case then they should just say so and stop wasting our time. Apparently Crystal is not truely interfaced with B1, just sort of hanging out with it.
I don't really care other than I have to do this select, subselect. If someone has a way to do that with tokens I would love to hear it.
Thanks,
Roy

Problem with Crystal reports for Eclipse and Postgres-databases

Hi,
Is there a known problem when using a PostgreSQL-database to create a report with Crystal reports Plugin? When I drag a table, then occurs a error-windows, that the object can't created.
I have found a workaround for solving the problem. After new installing Eclipse Platform Version: 3.4.1 Build id: M20080911-1700 and Crystal reports Plugin 11.8.6.v1371 with JRE 1.6.0_01 the error message allways occurs, when I select a table from a PostgreSQL database (Version 8.2). After restarting eclipse you see the last selected tables in the field explorer and you can drag the table fields in the report. A repeated choice of the same table causes aliases for the table in the field explorer after restarting eclipse.
Error.log:

Your issue appears to be a Crystal Reports for Eclipse report designer thing, and not a JRC runtime thing. The JRC runtime does support Type 4 JDBC drivers, but all modern PostgreSQL drivers are Type 4.
The current report designer is more restrictive than the JRC runtime - and PostgreSQL, being not on the supported platforms list, has never been tested with the embedded designer.
Unless there's anybody out there with experience with PostgreSQL and CR4E designer, who would be willing to share their experiences.
Sincerely,

Why we need ABAP if we can connect With Crystal Reports to SAP R/3

Hi,
I am new to Crystal reports.I came to know that we can connect SAP R/3 by using SAP InfoSet,SAP Table Cluster and Function connectivity in Crystal Reports.So we can generate reports for SAP R/3 database with out need of ABAP.So why we need to go ABAP module.Is there any disadvantages if we dont use ABAP to generate reports or we can use always Crystal Reports to generate Reports for R/3 database?

Hi,
it is correct that you can built a Crystal Report without the need to use ABAP, but we have lots of customers that have invested over the years into ABAP Routines and Crystal REports is able to leverage those as well. So with Crystal Reports you have the choice to leverage existing ABAP Functions as a source for reporting - which might help to leverage complex processing on the backend - or to use InfoSets and tables.

Connection String with Crystal Report XI R2

Hello,
I am having an issue with Crystal Reports XI R2 and figured this would be a good place to start and post my question.
I created a report in Crystal Reports XI and am now trying to pass the user id and password so that the user can just run the report. I attempted to use the Crystal Report connection string setup but receive an Microsoft ODBC error when trying to use that.
My question is how can you pass a userid and password to crystal report XI so that when you open the report it runs without prompting the user? I do not have access to .NET. Can this be done using Crystal Reports XI only?
Thanks in advance for your help
Shaun

Hi Shawn,
Standalone CR can only do that if using a URL to open a report in BOE.
For CR Designer itself the only option is to turn on Trusted Authentication in your Server, used Mixed mode and then import all of your users into SQL Server. Refer to MS's Help file on how to.
Now when the user runs the reports CR will simply pass the local user info to SQL Server and no prompting will be required. We still respect DB security so if the user is not allowed to access the table then CR respects that.
Thank you
Don

INTERNET CONNECTION NOT DETECTED message with Crystal Reports 2011

Hello:
We upgrade from SQL 3008 R2 to SQL 2012 SP1. Had trouble with Crystal Reports not opening reports. Information on the internet indicated that you had to reinstall Crystal Reports after upgrading SQL. We did a repair of Crystal Reports 2011. I have the box checked to check for updates when Crystal Reports starts. I am now getting INTERNET CONNECTION NOT DETECTED and the application will not check for updates. We have tried turning of the firewall and almost everything else we can think of. I have access to the internet from that server and IE9 works just fine. Can anyone help, please.
Thank You,
Jack G.

Problem with Crystal report viewer

I am using Crystal viewer 2008 with Crystal report 2008.
I am using a static parameter. When running with viewer I can not clik on modify to change the parameter because the modify button is grey.
Help ty.
Also where can I read limit of using Crystal Viewer ?
And how much to get something better ?

You can update the parameters using Crystal Viewer 2008. I had the same problem with the "CHANGE" button being grayed out.
Go to your Report -> Select Expert -> and now you have three choices: Record, Group, Saved Data. Put your select statement using your parameters in the Saved Data only (remove it from Record if already there).
It works awesome and even works on dynamic parameters!

Hi alpacino,
I know a really good actor that has the same name...and you're new to reports...hmmmmmmmm.....well, first of all,
bravo to you for being able to write english at all. I'm glad I don't have to learn it again.
Go to the Group Expert and select one of your "levels".
This will be your top group. Then select the next "level", etc.
I know you're not a dummy, but get a "Crystal Reports for Dummies" book and then a Crystal Reference book. The dummy books are actually pretty good and give you a "from the ground" start. Then keep coming back to the forum and test out your ideas by helping others.
Hope this helps,

Can JDeveloper work with Crystal Report?

I try to open Crystal Report with Jdeveloper, but I could not. Do anyone know if JDeveloper worked with Crystal Report. If anyone knows how, please show me. Thank you in advance.

For example, I have a report name "report1.rpt" which was saved under "C:\oracle\Jdev9052\jdev\mywork\HR\HR\public_html". Beside that I also have all the required jar files and folder crystalreportviewer added to my project. But everytime I run it, I received "The page cannot be displayed". Please help me to point out the problem. Thanks.

Invalid export DLL or export format" with Crystal Reports 2008 to Excel xls

We are experiencing the same issue as reported in the sticky thread. I answered in that thread, but thought that I woudl open a new thread to keep track of this issue. I can give you the responses to your questions you have requested in that thread:
Server Operating System - MS Windows Server 2003 R2 Enterprise Edition SP2
Version of the .NET Framework - MS .NET Framework 3.5 SP1
How did you deploy? - Installed CR 2008 SP1 runtime with msi package
If you deployed with CRRuntime_12_0_mlb.msi - what was the date of the file and its size? CRRuntime_12_1_mlb.msi dated Sept. 16, 2008 12:55:00 PM, size: 56,717,824 bytes
What is the file version of crpe32.dll on your server? You'll find this in the C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86 directory - File was created 9/13/08 11:21AM, 9451KB File Version: 12.1.0.882
How many libpng10.dll files are on your system? List all instances. - 1 instance is on the system located in C;\Program Files\Business Objects\Business Objects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86 directory. It is dated 9/13/08 8:52:26AM 132KB version 1.0.30.1
Any additional comments - We have tried to export to PDF and this works successfully. However, we can not export to xls or rft formats.
CRXF_XLS.dll is 905KB 9/13/08 9:38AM Version 12.1.0.882
CRXF_RTF.dll is 509KB 9/13/08 9:35AM Version 12.1.0.882
We also have the CR XIR2 server runtime installed side by side on the server as we migrate from CR 2008 to CR XIR2 SP4 ( where this function does work currently).
Please let me know if you need anything additional.

"Invalid export DLL or export format" with Crystal Reports 2008
Posted: Sep 27, 2008 12:36 AM       E-mail this message      Reply
I've included this sticky because we are seeing many posts in this forum regarding the error Invalid export DLL or export format when exporting to Excel and RTF in .NET applications using the Crystal Reports 2008 .NET SDK.
Issue
Exporting a Crystal Report to Excel or RTF format
.NET application using the Crystal Reports 2008 runtime (version 12.0)
error Invalid export DLL or export format
We've been doing some testing in-house and haven't reproduced this behavior. In order to figure this issue out we will need your help. If you are getting this error please reply to this post with the following information:
Server Operating System
Version of the .NET Framework
How did you deploy?
If you deployed with CRRuntime_12_0_mlb.msi - what was the date of the file and its size?
What is the file version of crpe32.dll on your server? You'll find this in the C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86 directory
How many libpng10.dll files are on your system? List all instances.
Any additional comments
What We Know
The error invalid export DLL or export format may occur when exporting to Excel and RTF formats in .NET applications utilizing the Crystal Reports 2008 runtime (v 12.0)
Other export formats like Adobe PDF, Crystal Reports, CSV all export with no error
Some customers have resolved this by adding C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86 to their environment path variables
This may have something to do with the file libpng10.dll. Both crxf_xls.dll and crxf_rtf.dll are dependent on it.
Thanks in advance for your co-operation. We hope to figure out what is causing this issue soon.

Hi,
I am also having the same problem, except that I am not using Crystal Report 2008 runtime but the actual Crystal Report 2008 installation on Windows XP SP2 with VS Studio 2005 (VC++). MS .NET Framework 2.0.
Cyrstal Report XIR2 was installed on the same machine but uninstalled before installing Crystal Report 2008.
So only one instance of libpng10.dll and found in C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86
Crpe32.dll        3/1/2008 version 12.0.0.683
Crxf_xls.dll       3/1/2008 version 12.0.0.683
Crxf_rtf.dll         3/1/2008 version 12.0.0.683
crdb_oracle.dll 3/1/2008 version 12.0.0.683
libpng10.dll       3/1/2008 version 1.0.30.0             122880 bytes
There is no problem for exporting to pdf, html, word, csv, Crystal Report. If I create a testing report without any data from database, the testing report can then be exported also to rtf and xls.
Oracle 11.1.0.6 is the DB for the reports.
Adding C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86 to the path did not resolve my problem.
Any idea to fix this issue?
Thanks

Error when opening a BW query with Crystal Reports

Hi all,
I am having problems when opening a BW query with Crystal Reports, the strange thing is that it only happens with
the bo user I have created. If I use a user that already exists and that has SAP_ALL authorization it works.
I don't know if this could be an authorizations issue, but I have created a role with all the authorizations stated in the manual.
The error I am getting is the following:
"An error occurred while generating a new report template. Error in UNKNOWN.RPT file"
Does anyone know what this could be?
Thanks

Well,
I cannot access the system now. But I think it is not an issue of authorization, because I assigned all the good user's role to the bo user,
and even with that, it still don't work.
Thanks

Java Plugin Viewer with Crystal Reports 2008

Hello,
I am trying to use the Java Plugin Viewer with Crystal Reports, but I have some problems. The ActiveX Viewer works well, but as I want to use the reports in other browsers, I need the Java viewer.
I have a Visual Basic 6 application, and, instead of including SmartViewerActiveX.asp, I have included JavaPluginViewer.asp. I have taken this file from an older version of Crystal, and I am changing the values on it (I have done the same with the ActiveX Viewer, without problems). This is the main code of the file:
<OBJECT
    classid="clsid:8AD9C840-044E-11D1-B3E9-00805F499D93"
    width="100%"
    height="100%"
    codebase="/crystalreportviewers11/JavaPlugin/Win32/j2re-1_4_2_04-windows-i586-p.exe#Version=1,4,0,0">
    <param name=type value="application/x-java-applet;version=1.4">
    <param name=code value="com.crystaldecisions.ReportViewer.ReportViewer">
    <param name=codebase value="/crystalreportviewers11/JavaViewer/">
    <param name=archive value="ReportViewer.jar">
    <param name=Language value="en_US">
    <param name=ReportName value="RDCrptserver11.asp">
    <param name=CanDrillDown value="true">
    <param name=HasExportButton value="true">
    <param name=HasGroupTree value="true">
    <param name=ShowGroupTree value="true">
    <param name=HasPrintButton value="true">
    <param name=HasRefreshButton value="true">
    <param name=HasTextSearchControls value="true">
    <param name=HasZoomControl value="true">
    <param name=HasSearchExpert value="false">
    <param name=HasSelectExpert value="false">
    <param name=ShowLogo value="false">
</OBJECT>
I know how to change all the values of this object so it works with Crystal2008 except one: the codebase.
I have gone to IIS, and under the virtual folder "crystalreportviewers12" I don't see any JavaPlugin folder, there's only the JavaViewer folder, and there isn't any .exe inside...
So, where can I find the .exe for the codebase?
I have tried searching the web for a tutorial or something, but I haven't seen anything for Crystal 2008.
Can anyone help me?
Thank you very much!

This is so wrong, I don't even know which forum this would belong to ( I think I'll move it to the SAP Crystal Reports, version for Eclipse topic Space...
Let's start with this:
I have taken this file from an older version of Crystal,
Don't mix versions. It will not work. Period
Next re:
I don't see any JavaPlugin folder,
If you want a Java solution, I'd recommend using CR for Eclipse which you can download from here:
SAP BusinessObjects - SAP Crystal Reports, Version For Eclipse Download
I would then recommend having a peek here:
CRJ SDK
Developer Help File is here:
https://help.sap.com/javadocs/cr/xi/jrc/en/overview-summary.html
Finally, I'm not sure what references you are making in your VB 6 app, but there is no SDK in CR 2008 that supports VB 6.
