Remote ODBC Connection - Citadel

Hi
I have a citadel 4 database running on a PC (PC-A). I wish to access the database from a different PC (PC-B) which has logos 4.5 installed but I am having difficulty getting the ODBC connection to work. The situation is as follows:
Using PC-A, I can access the database using ODBC but cannot access PC-A's database from PC-B using UNC nor mapped drives.
If I copy the database from PC-A to PC-B and change the ODBC data source properties on PC-B to point to the local database then I can access it.
I have no problems in browsing or creating files in the directory on PC-A that hosts the database.
The error that is being thrown up on PC-B is as attached. It would appear that the ODBC is fine as long as it's kept local and not over the network.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

"Does it happen just after you create the connection without no query execution?"
Yes, but I think technically, Access does a query just to setup the table so that is when it crashes the server.
The DSN is through a mapped network drive to the remote database path. It was not a valid MAX attached database. So It may have been this bastardized setup. Although the mapped drive had permissions, the machine did not have permissions that it would need to go through "MAX" because the machine was not a member of the domain, so automatic user authentications would be rejected.
I will try with a remote machine that is a domain member and would therefore pass all appropriate permissions using MAX to attach the data source. I will also try to recreate the crash using the domain machine.
I also had nicitdl5 hang tonight during a simple client hypertrend trace-back a few days of data. I could see where the data stopped being sent by the missing trace endpoints on the trend. After recovery on the server, I tried the exact same hypertrend trace-back and this time it was fine. Citadel still needs some stability work!!!

A CR remote ODBC connection question for anyone brave enough to jump in.

Greetings.
Been working with CR 2008 for about a month now, having great success. Two days ago it all went south as I hit a brick wall. Yep, I'm a relative newbie to CR, but I've been doing IT for many years. This has really got me stumped. Any takers?
My testbed:
I have a segregated network with two PCu2019s (A and B). PC (A) is running XP-Pro (32-bit) at IP 192.168.1.104, while PC (B) is running Win 7-pro 64-bit at IP 192.168.1.100.
I installed CR 2008, Oracle 10g Express and MySQL Server 5.5 on both, so they are both configured identically from a database/server perspective. Both use Norton Internet Security 2011.
Oracle EX came with a sample HR database. I added a normalized Innodb compliant northwind database to the SQL Server and verified both installations.
Both CR programs on PC(A) and on PC(B) can connect without issue to their respective local databases. The HR database has been successfully (locally) accessed by CR. The Oracle northwind database has also been successfully accessed (locally) by CR.
The problem:
When running CR on PC(A), I cannot find a way to successfully connect it (i.e., CR) via ODBC to the other databases on PC(B) - or visa versa.
I have eliminated the obvious possibilities like firewalls or improper port addressing. Strangely, I can create DSNs on PC(A) that tells me it successfully connects to the target DB on PC(B), but for whatever reason I cannot get CR on the same machine to successfully use the same DSN that just successfully connected without CR. ARRRggggggg!
For example:
Step 1:
I set up a System DSN as follows on PC(A) in my attempt to connect to the target HR database on PC(B):
System DSN: HR-Fastsob
Driver: CR Oracle Wire Protocol ODBC Driver 5.3
Standard connection, Host: 192.168.1.100
Port: 1521
Service name: XE
Step 2:
I click on the Test Connect in the u2018ODBC Oracle Wire Protocol Driver Setupu2019 window.
It responds with a u2018Logon to Oracle Wire Protocolu2019 window, in which I am prompted to enter the User Name and password. On the Oracle Express setup, I configured the database instance with root access as User: u2018SYSTEMu2019 and Password: u2018Passwordu2019, so I figured these should be the correct credentials.
I click the u2018Test Connectionu2019 connection button and breathe a sigh of relief as it tells me Iu2019ve u2018successfully connectedu2019.
Step 3:
3.1 - I launch CR
3.2 u2013 I create a new blank form
3.3 u2013 I create a new connection
3.4 - I click on ODBC (RDO)
3.5 - I select the HR-Fastsob DSN from the list of DSNs.
3.6 - Click next
3.7 - An ODBC (RDO) connection window appears. Iu2019m prompted to enter the user ID and password (SYSTEM and Password respectively), then hit the u2018Finishu2019 button.
3.8 - A u201CLogon Failedu201D pop-up appears. I hit the u2018OKu2019 button.
3.9 - Another popup appears saying u201CDatabase Connector Error: u201808s01:[Crystal Reports][ODBC Oracle Wire Protocol driver]Connection refused. Verify Host Name and Port Number. [Database Vendor Code -1]u201D. I sigh, then hit the u2018OKu2019 button.
3.10 u2013 Yet another window appears saying u201CLogon filed. Details: 08001:[Crystal Reports][ODBC Oracle Wire Protocol driver][Oracle]ORA-12203: unable to connect to destination [Database Vendor Code -1]. I hit the u2018OKu2019 button.
3.11 - An ODBC (RDO) connection window appears with my earlier entries (from step 3.7). No matter what I enter, the results are the same.
Two days later, Iu2019m still scratching my head.
I'm really hoping there's a guru in here that can feel my pain and who can dumb down the solution to this perplexing problem I'm facing.
Iu2019m really at a loss. Obviously, I donu2019t fully understand ODBC connectivity well enough.
The next beeru2019s on me if you get this one.
Thanks to anyone willing to help me out

Hi Don....
Thanks for jumping in -- much appreciated.
Your suggestion seemed plausible, as I had alternated between the system32 (64-bit) and the sysWOW (32-bit) odbc drivers. I thought maybe I had mixed it up...but alas, that didn't turn out to be the source of my problem. Your suggestion is still valid though, had I been using the 64-bit ODBC driber with a 32-bit CR app.
I decide to try another approach -- by eliminating CR from the equation altogether. I ran Microsoft excel against the same remote databases using the same DSN and voila.... all worked as I thought it should in the first place. My connection was extremely fast and rock solid.
This would ( I believe) suggest that the issue is with my version of CR i.e., Developer edition (v12.3.0.601) running on Win 7.
I tried running CR in compatibility mode XP-Pro SP2, but got the same errors. So now I have to decider whether or not to upgrade to CR 2010 in the hopes it will work on Win 7 Pro 64-bit.
Thanks again for stepping up.
warm regards

Hi, i am trying to open and view a report that comes from another server with different odbc connection

hi, i am trying to open and view a report that comes from another server with different odbc connection
i created a crystal report for a mysql database on my machine and everything works great
but we have other reports that come from other machines with different odbc connection
and this its not working when opens the report asks for credentials
and i cannot use the remote ip for these reports that come from other machine
question
if i cannot connect to remote ip to open the report
for each report i have to create a database the report database on my machine and then open the report ?
or there is some other way to open the report ?
i am using visual studio 2013 and mysql and
<add key="MYSQLODBCDRIVER" value="{MySQL ODBC 5.3 UNICODE Driver}"/>
thanks

short
i have a report that it was created on another server with a specific dsn
now i am trying to open the report on my machine
the database from the other server does not exist on my machine
the server machine where the report was created the ip its not accessible
question ?
can i open the report on my machine or its impossible ?
thanks

OBIEE 11g ODBC connectivity error

Hi all,
I am getting the following error when I tried to access a simple query through Answers.
"*Odbc driver returned an error (SQLExecDirectW).*
*Error Details*
*Error Codes: OPR4ONWY:U9IM8TAC:OI2DL65P*
*State: HY000. Code: 10058. [NQODBC] [SQL_STATE: HY000] [nQSError: 10058] A general error has occurred. [nQSError: 43113] Message returned from OBIS.

*SQL Issued: SELECT s_0, s_1, s_2 FROM ( SELECT 0 s_0, "BISample"."Product"."BRAND" s_1, "BISample"."Target"."REVENUE" s_2 FROM "BISample" ) djm*"
What I did was
1. Create a DSN 'orcl', 32 bit Oracle ODBC driver. Tested and worked against the Oracle database.
2. Import metadata using Local, ODBC 3.5 and DSN = orcl
3. Build a simple BMM and subject area
4. In the phyiscal layer, right click on a table, and select view data/update row count. Error with message "The connection has failed"
5. Hoping for the best, create a simple query in answer and got the above odbc driver error in results tab.
Interestingly, if I edit the connection pool and use OCI (my SID is also orcl), then everything works fine.
I'm new to OBIEE and hope someone can tell me if I have missed a step or make any mistakes!
Thanks!

Hi All,
I am able to connect SQL Server database with OBIEE 11g RPD offline and imported metadata and verified update row count/view data but when i was trying to publish the same RPD the data is not returning also "update row count/view data" is giving and error "The connection has failed."

OBIEE 11g/WLS 10.3.3/Oracle database 11g installed on RHL 5
Client tools are installed on local Vista 32 bit system.
Oracle database is working fin, where as SQL Server is giving issues.
You want me to create a ODBC connection in RHL 5 server to connect to SQL Server ? i am little bit confused here how to create !
same time i have created ODBC for oracle apps database and imported and able to view data in RPD when i am in Online mode.
When i open RPD in online mode and trying to import the data i dont have access to local machine ODBC's which is expected and if i change to "Remote Server" nothing is showing here.
Appreciate your comments on the above.
Thanks

How to add in ODBC connection and configuration for data connection

Hello expert,
on my computor, there is a oracle client for oracle 10g. now there is new oracle 11g installed , I want to create a ODBC connection to this new database. but when I create ODBC , I can't find server type for oracle 11g , there only has driver for oracle 10g. will you please tell me how to create ODBC for this new DB? will you please tell me where is the configuration file for data source on my computor?
Many Thanks,

Many Thanks,So, on this machine you have
- Oracle 10g client (only), and in a seperate ORACLE_HOME
- Oracle 11g rdbms
First, the 10g client will connect quite well to the 11g database
Second, the 11g database includes the basic client admin software, but the odbc drivers are not installed by default. You have to run OUI and choose 'custom' installation, then select 'windows components' from the list of available components.
I've never wanted to install the odbc driver as part of the database installation. Only on remote client installations.
What are you really trying to achieve?

SQL Server jobs fail if I signout the Remote Desktop connection

I have some SSIS jobs running in the production server which we usually take that server by Windows' Remote Desktop Connection to monitor the jobs. The problem in our case is If we sign out the server in remote connection, all the sql server jobs getting failed
until we reestablish a remote connection but the jobs work fine if we close the remote connection explicitly by the (x) mark on the Remote Connection interface
Any idea on this issue

Beginners Assistance with StarOffice and ODBC connections

Hello,
I apologize before hand for this VERY newbie question.
One of the last hurdles to overcome in our company to deploying StarOffice, is the use of MANY refreshable Excel files that pull data from SQL servers. How do I get StarOffice to use these ODBC connections? I have tried creating a new database file, but this does not point me to the correct database on the SQL server. I really could use some help, or handholding, through this process.
Thank you

Hi Paul
I am trying to get the 32 bit drives to work connected to a SQL remote database and I get the following error
GeneralError:Operation failed.......Index is out of bounds
I am using a simple script to clone the datasource so a drop down can bring up the other row values
The lines that it is failing on is
while (xfa.sourceSet.nodes.item(nIndex).name != "DataConnection2"){ nIndex

worked fine in Vista, but not windows 7 (using 32 bit drivers)
Any suggestions?

I tried the code opening a ServerSocket in the mentioned port and I stopped receiving the error, but the connection establishment never end.
ServerSocket is to accept connections; Socket initiates them. However, this is besides the point (though an interesting topic to pursue later). JDBC implicitly opens a Socket for you, specified by the JDBC URI you use to get your Connection object. Here is sample code:
public final class Foo {
     // Change items in [brackets] to the values for your database
     private static final String JDBC_URI = "jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://[host_name]:[port];" +
          "databaseName=[database_name];selectMethod=cursor";
     static {
          try {
               DriverManager.registerDriver((Driver) Class.forName("com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver").newInstance());
          catch (ClassNotFoundException fatal) {
               throw new RuntimeException("Unable to find SQL Server JDBC driver on CLASSPATH", fatal);
          catch (InstantiationException fatal) {
               throw new RuntimeException("Unable to create SQL Server JDBC driver", fatal);
          catch (IllegalAccessException notPossible) {
               throw new RuntimeException("Unable to access SQL server JDBC driver", notPossible);
          catch (SQLException fatal) {
               throw new RuntimeException("Unable to load SQL Server JDBC driver", fatal);
     private Foo() {
          super();
     // Use this method to get database connections
     public static final Connection getConnection(final String userName, final String password)
          throws SQLException {
          Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection(JDBC_URI, userName, password);
          conn.setAutoCommit(false);
          return conn;

Remote Desktop Connection Manager can only open 6 sessions at a time on Server 2012

I am only able to open, and view thumbnails, for a maximum of 6 RDP sessions on my Server 2012 box at a time in Remote Desktop Connection Manager (RDCM). If I add more sessions I just get a variety of connection errors for the additional sessions. If I activate
a 7th session one of the existing 6 sessions goes off-line with a connection error message. Sometimes the error says 3334, sometimes the error says 0x8345000E, and sometimes it just says there is a connection error.
I have checked Group Policy on the server to ensure I don't have any settings restricting the number of RDP sessions.
In fact, I will often have 30 or 40 RDP simultaneous sessions opened, I am just not able to view them all in RDCM. I have seen reviews of RDCM with screenshots showing dozens of thumbnails so it seems to be something that's possible to do.
Are there any settings I should make on the server to allow RDCM to connect to more than 6 simultaneous RDP sessions?
Just to be clear, all these RDP sessions are running on the same server. Also, I am just using the trial license for Server 2012 and Remote Desktop Services right now. I don't think that should have an impact, but I wanted to be thorough.

Thanks Jakub for "corflags" info.
Unfortunatelly it doesn't work because running mRemoteNG.exe process in 64bit can't load MSTSC ActiveX component (referenced assemblies) because original files were assembled from 32bit dll [mstscax.dll]?
Error message when making RDP connection:
Could not load file or assembly 'Interop.MSTSCLib, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null' or one of its dependencies. An attempt was made to load a program with an incorrect format.
I was able to create new AxInterop.MSTSCLib.dll and Interop.MSTSCLib.dll assemblies from 64bit dll version and now it works with "AnyCPU":-)
http://www.filedropper.com/axinteropmstsclib-mremoteng
Using AxImp.exe and TlbImp.exe didn't worked for me because it creates assemblies in wrong namespace "MSTSCLib" instead of "Interop.MSTSCLib" (AxImp.exe) and TlbImp.exe for changing namespace generated many "marshaled errors"
so final .dll wasn't working.
Adding MSTSCAX.dll reference in Visual Studio directly created correct and functional assemblies. Who don't know how to create 64bit compatible assemblies or don't have Visual Studio, feel free to check linked file.
Hope it helps
P.S. Sorry for possible technical misinterpretation, I am not programmer so creating new assemblies was trial-error process...

Not seeing all DB tables in Crystal using ODBC connection

I have an ODBC connection to an oracle database. I can connect to the database and see all the tables through tools such as TOAD, SQL developer, SQLPlus, etc. However, in Crystal, i only see schema tables and not the tables I want. I am using the same connection, username, and password. If I run a report that was created in a different environment to the correct tables, I receive the error: ORA00942: table or view does not exist.
Oracle 10g
Crystal 12.0.0.683
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Diana Woronuk

Hi Diana,
Go to File | Options and open the Database tab.
Make sure Tables and Views are checked. You may want to include Stored Procedures too.
Save the changes and restart Crystal.
You should see your tables now. If you have more than 200 objects in your database, you may need to use the Table Name Like option to filter out some of the tables.
Good luck,
Brian

How to find the number of ODBC connections to Oracle Database

Hi All,
How to find the number of ODBC connections and all connections to the Database in last week. Are there any views to get this information?
Thanks in advance,
Mahi

What Ed said is true that Oracle doesn't note which type of protocol is connecting to the database, however, you can see which program is accessing the database.
For example: if you already know of a user using ODBC, you can verify as:
select username, osuser, terminal, program from v$session where username = 'SCOTT'
USERNAME                 OSUSER          TERMINAL   PROGRAM
SCOTT                    IUSR_SRV231     SRV231     w3wp.exe
SCOTT                    IUSR_SRV231     SRV231     w3wp.exe
2 rows selected.Assuming that you can confirm the progam noted in the above (example) is the one using ODBC, then you can change the query such as:
SQL> select username, osuser, terminal, program from v$session where program = 'w3wp.exe';
USERNAME                 OSUSER          TERMINAL   PROGRAM
SCOTT                    IUSR_SRV231     SRV231     w3wp.exe
SCOTT                    IUSR_SRV231     SRV231     w3wp.exe
2 rows selected.Just for kicks, I checked our listener.log file, but there was no reference of odbc in it either.
Hope this helps...

11g 64-bit unable to create ODBC connection

Hello,
I am currently facing issue related to ODBC connection. Details of configuration is as follows
OS: Vista 64 Home Premium
Oracle DB 11g 64bit: ver 11.1.0.6.0,plus the addition of the fix for bug 7389110 (as per release notes)
ODBC driver location: C:\app\oracle\product\11.1.0\db1\BIN\sqora32.dll
It appears and works well from 32 bit ODBC connection manager. However, it's not visible/available from 64 bit ODBC connection manager. Oracle installation repository appears under 64 bit area ("Program Files") and not under "Program Files (x86)". Assuming it might be a problem with installation I have also tried copying registry entries under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\ODBC with no luck.
Any help to create ODBC connection is much appreciated
Thanks,
Hemant

Using a remote desktop connection with the Macbook pro.

I use the remote desktop connection on the Macbook pro and am unable to exchange info between the mac and the remote connetion windows. For example, if I am writing an email from the remote connection and want to attach a document, photo etc. that I created on the Mac, it just doesn't work. It seems like the Mac and the desktop connection are completely seperated eventhough they are both on the screen in front of me. the systems I use for work are not Apple compatible and will not work on anything other than windows explorer and in my case the remote desk top connection. Any ideas!

Welcome to Apple Discussions
Try running in 'ClamShell' mode (MacBook Pro lid closed and using an external keyboard and mouse) with the Gateway connected and then run System Preferences/Displays, it should show then ...

Remote Desktop Connection to Windows 8 PC from other computers crashing

Hi all.
Was hoping someone would be able to help me with an issue I'm having.
I'm trying to get a LAN remote desktop connection established to my Windows 8 laptop. It's an HP ENVY 17t-2100 CTO 3D Edition Notebook PC. Note that I'm running Windows 8 Pro only - not 8.1 as HP haven't released 8.1 graphics drivers for this laptop and probably
never will. The computer has a single user profile that has full administrator rights.
I have followed numerous web tutorials on how to turn on Remote Desktop. I've gone into Advanced System Settings > System Properties > Remote > checked "Allow Remote connections to this computer". All seems ok to me.
The problem comes when I try to establish a connection. When the connection is made, it almost instantaneously crashes the session on the computer or device trying to connect. The RDP client on my Windows 7 laptop, Mac OSX or Mac running Windows 8.1 Pro just
crashes, while the RDP iPhone or iPad app simply flickers for a few seconds then goes back to the main screen. Meanwhile, the HP ENVY loads the lock screen and displays a message saying XXX device is connected remotely and it won't let me log back in to kill
the connection or do anything. I have to restart the computer from then to be able to use it again.
I'm convinced there's not a problem with my local network as the HP ENVY can RDP into the Windows 7 laptop or Mac running Windows 8.1 without any problems. All computers are connected via Ethernet to a Linksys/Cisco wireless ADSL modem router which supports
Gigabit. The iPhone and iPad of course connect to the wifi network from the Cisco/Linksys modem router
I've also had a brief look at the RDP local connection logs. From what I can make out, they confirm that a user has successfully logged in, but they don't provide a crash log or a log of the user ever disconnecting, probably because I have to restart the computer
to continue using it. Dead end there, it seems.
The HP ENVY is connected to 3 external HP LED monitors. I've disconnected them and tried all devices with no luck. I've also played round with the RDP client settings to not mount drives or printers and the HP ENVY has no printers connected anyway, though I've
done all I can to remove any printer drivers as I've read elsewhere that they are what could cause the problem, but I've had no luck.
If anyone can suggest anything more that I can try, I would be unbelievably grateful! I'm more than happy to provide screenshots or videos of what happens when I try connecting. I'm not sure what you experts would find immediately helpful so just ask away if
you think I can provide anything.
Thanks in advance!

The first thing that I would try is to uncheck all of the boxes for local resources on computer running the RDP client. It is possible that a device, such as a printer or other redirected device, is causing the crash. You can also look under Event Viewer
in the event logs of both systems and see if anything unusual appears when you attempt the remote connection.

Hi Brandon
Many thanks for your suggestions. There's nothing in the logs that I could find, like I said in the original post. I've also tried connecting with bare minimum settings on all devices (FYI the iPad and iPhone version don't support the use of printers) and
this still hasn't helped.
If you have any other ideas I'd be very glad to hear them!
