Problem of installing Crystal Reports Print Control(ActiveX)

Environment
Windows 20003 SP1
ASP.NET 2.0
Crystal Reports XI SP4
Background
I am converting ASP application to ASP.NET.
I used ActiveX Viewer on ASP.
Now, I decide to use CrystalReportViewer and PrintControl(ActiveX) on ASP.NET.
CrystalReportViewer.PrintMode = CrystalDecisions.Web.PrintMode.ActiveX
Problem
I want to make normal user (user which is in "Users" group)  use PrintControl because of security reason.
But normal user can't use PrintControl.
Reproduce Procedure:
1. logon windows as admin user.
2. install ActiveX (PrintControl) after clicking print icon.
3. logon windows as normal user.
4. when normal user clicks print icon, nothing happens.
    (small dialog for printing is displayed, but nothing happens.It looks like "hang". )
When I used ActiveXViewer on ASP, the following steps worked well.
1. logon windows as admin user.
2. Install ActiveX (ActiveXViewer) in report screen.
3. Logon windows as nomal user.
4. normal user (of cource, other admin users) can use ActiveXViewer without installation.
Could you tell me how to use PrintControl on normal user authority?

Thank you very much for your answer.
I solved it.
The cause of this problem is , the dll version string in print.js which creates <OBJECT> tag dinamically is different from dll file version.
i.e. the version string in <OBJECT> tag is newer than dll version.
As a result, each time user accesses HTMLViewer, cab file is downloaded and installed.
We modified the dll version string in print.js, and my problem is fixed.

    Hi,
    Do you have any antivirus installed on your machine if yes "turn the antivirus OFF" and then try installing
    Also Are you trying to install from the CD if yes then try to copy the software into your drive and try to install.
    Do you have the administrator permission to your work station. If no then try to login  using an administrator account and try to install the software.
    Are you trying to install CRXI from the network drive if yes then try to copy it on to your workstation and install the software.

  • Where can I find a copy of the Crystal Report Print Control

    Hello,
    Our users have access to a report portal developed in house which uses the Crystal Report Viewer to display the Crystal Reports created in Visual Studio 2010. the first time they open the portal and try to print the report the loading dialog box that comes up keeps spinning and spinning. The reason for that is that they don't have admin rights to the computer. I would like a copy of the driver so We can push it out to their computers. Any idea where I can find a downloadable version?
    Thank You

  • Crystal Reports print preview problem

    Hello
    The problem is that print preview of a report using crystal Report dotnet Print Preview is  making u201Cblank signsu201D inside words. The blank signs occurs near Swedish special signs like u201Cåu201D, u201Cäu201D and u201Cöu201D. Also near u201C.u201D (dot). Maybe there are more signs making this problem.
    The problem occurs for those who have .NetRuntime, or a full installation of Crystal Reports
    The problem started when we installed Crystal Reports 12. In earlier versions we had no problem with this.
    It feels like Crystal Report have some bug in the u201Ctext rendering engineu201D. This is obviously a problem when a customer previews a text before printing it. This preview should look like the printout. Even if the room between two letters not is  a space, there still is a room that is interpreted as a space by a human.
    However, if we zoom to larger % (200%) the preivew is matching the report.
    Regards
    Kamlesh

    Make sure you have SP 2:
    https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100009038092009E/cr2008win_sp2.exe
    with FP 2.5 on top:
    https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100002975192010E/cr2008fp25.exe
    If the issue persists, since it is in the CR designer, post to the CR design forum:
    SAP Crystal Reports
    You need to resolve this in the designer, before trying to resolve it in a .NET application.

  • After install Crystal Report Server 2011, can not access control tools

    Afte install Crystal Report Server 2011, can not access control tools from web or from application.
    My server OS is Windows 2008 R2 SP1. I follow the default setting. How to fix it?
    Error message is above.

    Is Tomcat started?  On your Start menu you should have an option to get to "Tomcat  Configuration" or, under the CRS menu you can run the "Central Configuration Manager" to start Tomcat.
    What URL are you using to connect to the web app?  By default Tomcat runs on port 8080 so your URL should look something like this:  "http://<servername>:8080/BOE/CMC" or "http://<servername>:8080/BOE/BI".
    If Tomcat is running and you're trying to access it from another computer, check to see if the Windows Firewall is turned on for the server - if it is, turn it off for "Domain" access.
    If Tomcat won't start, go to the folder where Tomcat is installed and then look in the "logs" folder.  There should be a file called "stderr.log" which you can open in Notepad to see what types of errors might be occurring (you can ignore any errors having to do with "persisted sessions".)  If there are other errors, post in the BI Platform space to get assistance.

  • Probleming Installing Crystal Reports 2008 Service Pack 1 to Vista 64bit OS

    Hi There,
    Whenever I attempt to install SP1 to Crystal Reports 2008 I am unable to get past the disk space check.  It just continues to display the message below.
    "please wait while the installer finishes determining your disk space". 
    I found this to be an issue on the 64bit OS only because I can install to Vista 32bit no problem. 
    Please help.
    Thanks
    Mark

    Hi Mark,
    Try with this:
    Run a command prompt as administrator. From the start menu, select "All Programs", then "Accessories" and right-click on the "Command Prompt" shortcut and choose "Run As Administrator". From here you can use the following command to disable Data Execution Prevention (DEP) with the following command:
    bcdedit.exe /set nx AlwaysOff
    Keeping your command prompt open, run your setup or other process being stopped by DEP. Then, to turn it back on again, do the same and run the following:
    bcdedit.exe /set nx AlwaysOn
    Now try to install Crystal reports.

  • License problem when trying to install Crystal reports XI on Win 7

    I'm trying to install Crystal Reports XI on a machine with Win 7, the installation in successful on older machines with Win XP.
    I'm trying to upgrade the programs we use at work, but this install fails.
    The installer doesn't accept my old license/registration/activation codes.
    How do I solve that?
    Do we need to buy new licences for our development?
    Is there anyone I should mail about it?

    Hello,
    One problem is XI is not supported on Windows 7. Multiple configuration problems with DEP. You may have to turn it off completely. Search forums on DEP and you'll find lots of postings on how to.
    It's possible the the keycode.dll can not be register. Try copying it to our install folder if it's not there already and then use regsvr32.exe "path to dll.keycode.dll" and then try again.
    If that doesn't work you have a few options, use Process Monitor to see what's missing or upgrade to CR XI R2 ( 11.5 ) for free. Go to this link: http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc and download the trial version of CR XI R2 and use your XI keycode, then apply the patches which you can get to by clicking on the BusinessObjects tab above, then Downloads.
    Direct link to the Trial version: http://www.sap.com/solutions/sapbusinessobjects/sme/freetrials/index.epx
    SP 6 does support Windows 7. Only issue is exporting to MAPI ( Outlook 2007 e-mail ) and it's bee tracked and the fix should be out sometime this year.
    Other common issues is possibly the 1.1 and 2.0 .NET framework is not there or needs to be updated.
    YOU also MUST be a local PC Administrator and have full rights to install programs, browse to the setup.exe and right click on it and then select Run as Administrator, that may fix the issue also.
    Thank you

  • Problem in crystal report viewer control's toolbar "export"button using SSL

    Hi,
    I would like to ask. My project is using BO XI Release 2 and VS-Studio 2005. Initially my project doesn't use SSL... At that time when i view the report with crystal report viewer control and can export (using built-in toolbar "export button"). Now project is using SSL and canu2019t export the error is
    u201CInternet Explorer cannot download file from server.
    Internet Explorer was not able to open this Internet site. The requested site is either unavailable or cannot be found. Please try again later.u201D
    Actually this error can solve "Cache-control" change to "no-cache". But I donu2019t know in crystal reportu2026
    Anyone can help ???
    Thanks

    In Internet Explorer, go to Tools -> Internet Options -> Advanced and ensure "Do not save encrypted pages to disk" is unchecked.
    Default is to have that option checked. 
    It was considered a IE security issue that IE saves all content to temp disk location unencrypted, even those pages served by HTTPS (for example, let's say you use HTTPS to download your bank info, and it's stored to temp disk for someone else to retrieve later).  So more recent versions of IE implemented that option setting.
    How that option setting works is strange - it downloads the file, saves to disk, then deletes the copy from the disk immediately, before passing it to the application responsible for the MIME type.  So the application tries to open a directory path to a non-existing file.
    Issue is specific to IE, and it's not something you can control via the SDK.
    Sincerely,
    Ted Ueda

  • Problem on using Crystal Report Viewer on windows application ("specified type is not valid ")

    Hi
    I am having problem on using Crystal Report Viewer on one of my windows application.
    I am not sure how to put the Crystal Report Viewer 11 Control onto the tool box.
    I could found a Crystal Report Viewer control on my computer, but it is version 8.5.
    I have also found another one which is Called Crytal ActiveX Report Viewer, i don't think it is the one I can use. As when I try to load a dummy report on to the Crytal ActiveX Report Viewer, It return an error. "specified type is not valid"
    Please see the Code sample below.
    private sub loadReport()
         Dim r as New ReportDocument
         'v is the name of the Crystal ActiveX Report Viewer Control
         r.Load("C:\Report1.rtp")
         v.ReportSource(r) <---It throw error on this line.
    End Sub
    Could you give me some advice about what have I done wrong, How to check if I have set up the Crystal Report Component correctly in my Visual Studio 2005 Standard edition.
    Thanks in advances.
    Many thanks
    Chi

    VS 2005 Standard and Express editions do not come with Crystal Reports; only the Professional and higher editions will have CR bundled. However, I believe you can purchase CR XI R2 Developer and it will give you the components you need to create a VS .NET 2005 application using the Standard edition.

  • Error:Crystal report Print option in xeon processor

    i am using a server with windows 2008 server and xeon 5520 series processor. windows in 64 bit with 16 Gb of ram.
    everything is working fine except the print option in crystal report..
    i tried installing crystal report basic runtime but it says that it doesnt supprt xeon processor .
    kindly solve this issue .
    Thank you in advance

    You'll have to supply a whole bunch more detailed info. Telling me that you have 2008 server and xeon 5520 series processor, windows in 64 bit is like telling your mechanic that you have a blue car with 4 wheels and it does not work. No info re. engine, of make or what the problem is... And with that info, you want your mechanic to fix the car...
    1) What CR / BO SDK are you using?
    2) what version of the above are you using?
    3) What updates for (1) above are you using?
    4) What development language are you using?
    5) How are you deploying the runtime for (1) above?
    6) What is the precise error message you are getting?
    Think about the info I would need to accurately reproduce the issue. What info would probably be good to have?

  • I couldn't use Crystal Report Viewer Control in my ASPX page.

    Please I'm having a problem with crystal report viewer control which I couldn't resolve. I'm using VS 2008 and Framework 3.5.
    I building an ASP web application and when I add a CrystalReportViewer to my ASPX page I'm getting the following
    error.
    "Error     20     Type 'CrystalDecisions.Web.CrystalReportViewer' is not defined."
    I think maybe because I'm not having the right reference file. I'm using Crystal Reports 2008 and also I installed the following

    CR2008-SP1
    CR2008SP1-Fixes 1 and 2

    Good morning,
    I am using  "Embeddable Crystal Reports Designer Control"  Crystal Report 11 with Visual Basic 6.0.
    There is some way for disable the tab "preview the main report"? THis is including in "Embeddable Crystal Reports Designer Control"

    There is some way for update the tab "preview the main report" loaded after other report? Because, the preview is not refresh.
    Thanks
    Buenos días,
    Les comento, estoy utilizando el control "Embeddable Crystal Reports Designer Control" (CRDesignerCtrl11_5) del Crystal Report 11 en un proyecto de Visual Basic 6.0
    Cuando cargo un reporte dos veces, se presenta la "vista previa de informe principal".  Sin embargo cuando vuelvo a cargar otro reporte no se actualiza la "vista previa de informe principal" sino que se queda con la información cargada anteriormente.
    Quisiera saber si existe una forma de acceder al control para actualizar la "vista previa de informe principal", ya que a pesar de dar clic derecho y elegir actualizar no toma los datos del nuevo reporte cargado.
    Y si es posible en todo caso desabilitar la "vista previa de informe principal" o hacerlo invisible para que únicamente se presente la pestaña de "Informe Principal".
    De antemano agradezco su ayuda.

  • Crystal Report Viewer Control error

    Please Help, I have a web application developed in .net 2005 which is using crystal reports developer product version 10.0.0.533.
    This web application with crystal is working fine on my local machine with OS windows xp, but on the windows server 2003 the application web form is running into "couldnot load file or assembly 'CrystalDecision.VSDesigner, Version=10.0.0.3300' or one of its dependencies"
    I have compared the assembly information of my local machine with that of the server and could not see the crystaldecision.vsdesigner version 10.0.0.3300 on the server 2003. I have uninstalled microsoft .net 2005 and crystal reports and installed crystal first and visual studio .net 2005 next and vice versa but still could not see that particular assembly available in the windows 2003 server.
    Please suggest as what to do for the assembly to be available on the server so crystal report viewer control can be created with out error. Thanks for any help.

    Hello Sunitha,
    Visual Studios 2005 ships with a bundled edition of Crystal Reports.  This bundled edition is based on the v10 code stream, but it is not CR10.  It's CR.NET for Visual Studios and it's v10.2. Crystal Reports 10.0 and the bundled CR.NET 10.2 for VS2005 are not interchangeable.
    The stand alone version of Crystal Reports 10 is not expected to integrate correctly into VS2005.  If you have CR10 Developer installed on your VS2005 machine you can force VS2005 to use the CR10.0 assemblies, but it is not supported.
    You need to clean up your application so that it's referencing the 10.2 version assemblies and then deploy the 10.2 runtime files.  You can visit the [Crystal Reports for Visual Studio .NET Runtime Distribution - Versions 9.1 to 12.0|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/wiki?path=/display/bobj/crystalReportsruntimeforVisualStudio.NET] Wiki for a nice overview of the various versions of Crystal Reports, as well as a listing of the runtime files to match the version of Crystal Reports that is being used.  For VS2005 and bundled CR.NET look at the "CR 10.2 (VS .NET 2005)" section of the Wiki.
    Sincerely,
    Dan Kelleher
