Slow creating ReportDocument object and loading report

Hi all,
I realise this question has come up several times before, I've been searching the internet and have found similar problems but non that match my own. Sorry this is a little long winded but I would like to give as much detail as possible.
I use CR 2008 and VS2010 on my development machine. And I have installed CR 2008 Redist SP3 on the production server.
My application is a simple console application accepting parameters such as report name, print or export, and of course the report parameters.
CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument rptDoc = new CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument();
rptDoc.Load(sParamDOC); //sParamDOC being the report name passed in via command line
It has to be like this because it integrates into an old system in the background. Of course it being like this means I can not pre-load dll's on application startup (as I've seen suggested several times).
All of this is in house, I'm an OU administrator and an administrator on the server. The server is only accessed via remote desktop and the OS is windows server 2003. I installed all of the neccesary software to make this work.
What is really puzzling me though is that when I use this program via command prompt, logged in as me, it creates the object and loads the report in a matter of seconds. Yet if anybody else runs it (even other administrators of the server) the program can take 30-60 seconds to create the ReportDocument object and the same again to load the report.
I initially only noticed this for the standard users, which was why I created another admin to test. I don't think it's a problem with the report design because it works quick for me. I read an article about this happening with reports created in Crystal version 9. So I tested with a report made from scratch in 2008 and still get the same result. I also read another article about default printers, 'dissociate printer' option is selected and locally the default printers are set to the same printer also.
Does anybody have any suggestions as to where I could look next?
I saw in another article some registry keys you can use to turn on logging for crystal reports, I want to do this but where does it put the log files?
Oh, one more thing the server orginally had redist 2.3 on when I noticed this issue, updating to SP3 (redist 3.3) if anything made it slower, and a little more inconsistant of load times.
Thanks
Gavin

I figured out what this was. I thought I would come back and post incase anyone else has the same issue... the reason it was slow for the other users is because they could not access the internet. My program doesn't use the internet but the operating system is automatically trying to verify the dll's publishers. you can disable this see the following blog:

How to generate .PRN file from a ReportDocument object in Crystal Reports 10.

Hi,
I have reports created in Crystal 10 version. From the VB .Net code I am able to load the report to ReportDocument object and able to print it to the local printer. Now I need to generate .PRN file of the report for faxing purpose.
Can anyone help me one this?.
Thanks,
Srini.

Hi Joanne,
Boxes do not actually have a 'name'. When you add a Box in a report, it will be called 'Box 1' by default. And the only place this name is visible is under the Report Explorer.
Or do you mean to say 'Text Object'?

Creating remote objects and passing the retrieved data to modules

I found at this Adobe tutorial a nice "RemoteService" class that creates a RemoteObject and contains the functions for handling the result and fault events. If I wanted to use this approach, how could I pass the data from the result handler to interfaces that modules from the main application could use?
I could put the RemoteService/RemoteObject in the modules, but (in my opinion- and I could be wrong) the best design seems to be using the remote calls in the main app and passing the data along to the modules.
Ultimately, I would like to know what the "best practices" are for creating remote objects and passing the retrieved data to modules
Thanks!

public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent e) {
X x = new X(e.getX(), e.getY());
}I don't see the difficulty.

Error in creating Connection Object and Device Location

Hi ,
When i am creating Connection Object and Device Location , system is giving dump . all other object are working fine.
the error is gievn below :
Error in reading table TE130.
i checked this the table , its have no entries ( mainly field ISTYP is blank ) and this is the cause of problem .
Could you please tell me that how to fill this table before creating Connection object and device location. i think some configuration should be needed for this but i dont know how .
thanks and regards
Deepak.

Hi Deepak,
You can check standard configuration in client 000.
Meanwhile you can use this settings:
ISTYP TPLKZ FLTYP NUMKI NUMKE
C AO_GP A 01 OC
D AO_GP G 02 OC
This is where you define structure indicator for isu technical location category.
ISTYP correspond to the type of technical location in ISU, C for connection object and D for device location
The content of TPLKZ is defined in the following menu in SPRO.
Plant Maintenance and Customer Service
Master Data in Plant Maintenance and Customer Service
Technical Objects
Functional Locations
Create Structure Indicator for Reference Locations/Functional Locations
Hope it helps,
Regards,

I've tried the solutions mentioned in the other similar thread: Failed to create Salience object but this doesnt solve the issue since the directory and variables were already correct.
Anyone can help?

Given that you are running this in Clover Server, one thing I can recommend is to shut that server down, move/truncate the logs, restart and retest, then look at the first error message you get when attempting to run the graph. Java classloaders sometimes cache failed class clinit and report future attempts to load that class as a simple NoClassDefFoundError, masking the original/actual root cause. With any luck you might find another, clearer error - maybe the native binary libraries are not being located.

Creating scenario dimension and loading data

Hi all,
We have two fact tables. The first one is sales that include quantity and subtotal columns. The other one is budget that include quantity and subtotal. We are working with hyperion essbase 9.3. First of all we are creating two model. For sales model we create 7 dimensions (product, chanell, time, company, currency, customer, account) and 3 attribute dimension and for budget model we create 4 dimensions (account,company,customer,product) in metaoutline. And we create 2 application for each metaoutline. We plan to report sales vs budget but we don't know how to join sales and budget data. Everybody recommends scenario dimension. we don't know how to create sceneraio dimension and in which application Essbase integration or Essbase administration services.
thank you.

I agree with Cameron. The best way is to put them into one cube. Since you are using a SQL source you can manulate it to have your budget load to the same time level as your actuals. For example suppose you load actuals daily and Budget is Monthly. for consistancy, you could load the budget data into the 15th day of the month. At the Monthly level where you would compare budget to actual, the numbers will be correct. Loading into dummy members for the dimensions that don't exist for budget is a common practice when trying to sync up data. If you really want to make it easy, you could union a view to make it look like you have a single fact table (based on the combo of budget and actual) and have a single metadata outline to load everything. I prefer having two because of different load requirements, but this is an option.
If you don't want to go this way, the next option is to partition your budget data into the actuals cube. this would keep them seperate but allow you to see them togeter. Between the two option, I prefer the single cube approach better

Using PHP Data Services to create an object and accessing that objects data in an unbound way in AS

Hello,
I've been able to use the php data services and bind the results of a function to a component. However I am having a hard time figuring out the syntax to use the data services to create an object out of the results, and then use that object as an array of filenames to provide the current index of the filename to a new sound object.
My problem is obviously in not being able to figure out the specific syntax, I have declared the service and and object of the services returned type and in the creationComplete() function I have assigned object.token = service.getData();
I've tried various ways of then pulling that data out of the object, with no success.
Can someone point me in the right direction?
This code probably looks horrible because it doesn't work yet.

Hello Joel;
In retrieving your data - what is your php returning to FB, an object, object array, an array? Either way, I have a brief example below that an object(s) is being returned. Pull the data from the lastResult in a ResultEvent. The object instantiated in the resultEvent will contain your data and you can do what you want from there.
Also, I always use Network Monitor to see what data (if any) is being returned from the server, you can also see how it is being sent back.

Create a Weekly and Quartely Report

Hi All,I need to create a report which runs without user interaction so when the user runs the report it selects the Data on Quarterly Basis Please can anyone let me know how to do this.So If I run the report End of Feb it should return all the data from Dec-Feb ..........Note :The report will be scheduled to run end of every three months period.Also I need to run the report on Weekly Basis Too The week Starts on Monday and Ends of Thursday.This report needs to be automated too.ThanksRahul 

Hi RahulNot sure if I entirely understand but I will give it a try. To automate the scheduling of the report you can use either Crystal Reports Server or Business Objects Enterprise. Both of these products are built on the same framework and have report scheduling built into their feature set. Both of these products allow you to schedule reports based on end of Month, end of Qauter, or end of week. They even have the ability to set more complicated scheduling features using custom calendars and events.That solves the automation problem.The second problem that you seem to have is that the report needs to only bring back the data for a certain time periods. You can use Crystal Reports to add "selection formulas". Search the help to see how you can create a custom selection formula that filters the data to only bring back the last 3 months.PS. Crystal Reports Server comes free with Crystal Reports. Rob Horne <a href="/blog/10">Rob's blog - http://diamond.businessobjects.com/blog/10</a>

Creating the outline and Loading data for TBC in 11.1.2.2

Hi all, feelin kinda dumb here because this task really should not be as difficult as it seems.
I am trying to Load the TBC application in 11.1.2.2 Essbase. I have followed the documentation to
1. Install EIS
2. create the metadata repository and load the xml file provided
I now need to create the essbase cube from this metadata repository, I cannot seem to find any real steps as to how to do this, everything I found was pertaining to creating the repository. Can anyone help define what needs to be done and what steps I need to take, I am new to EIS and Studio so the simpler the better :)
thanx

thanx, this did give me a better understanding of essbase studio, thank you. It did not help so much as getting the structure and data from the repository into essbase. For that from what I understand I can import models from EIS (where I loaded the TBC) one. In doing this I get an error saying that it cannot find any models (which I know are there because I can look at them in EIS. Unfortunately, looking over other posts, I installed Studio on a 64 bit server, which may be the issue I am facing (I hope)
I am going to try and reinstall studio on a 32 bit platform and try the import again.

Need help creating custom objects and adding them to an array.

Hi Everyone,
So I'm dinking around in Powershell today and I'm failing at creating an array of custom objects. I want to create a HTML report that builds out after every MDT image update. To do that, I need to collect my data on what's contained in each build.
Here's my current script in progress -
function Parse-Dependents($fullname){
#PARAMETER SWITCHING
if(!($fullname)){
$dependents = get-dependents
if($fullname){
$dependents = get-dependents -fullname $fullname
#SPIN THROUGH ARRAY OF GUIDS FROM GET-DEPENDENTS
foreach($d in $dependents){
#SPIN THROUGH EACH APP IN APPLICATIONS.XML
foreach ($app in $apps){
#IF MATCH THEN ADD OBJECT WITH PROPERTIES
if($d -match $app.guid){
#ADD APPLICATION MATCH TO THE ARRAY
$applications = @{
'Name' = $app.ShortName;
'GUID' = $app.Guid;
'Version' = $app.Version;
'Last Modified Time' = $app.LastModifiedTime;
'Last Modified By' = $app.LastModifiedBy;
'Install Directory' = [string]'\\my\path\to\MDT\' + $app.WorkingDirectory.TrimStart(".","\")
'CommandLine' = $app.CommandLine;
new-object -typename PSObject -property $applications
#RETURN MATCHED ARRAY
return $applications
It all works great until I look at my output and see that I get my expected properties and array, but at the end it's created additional empty entries for each of my initial properties I assigned. So I get my list of apps like this :
powershell.ex... OrgChart Plugin \\my\mdt\server\ XX\user                     9/22/2014 5:... {ffee7497-0c...
And then below it :
                 CommandLine
                 Name
                 Install Direc...
                 Last Modified By
                 Version
                 Last Modified...
                 GUID
And these are all listed under the Name property. I'm still pretty new to PS (8 months or so now), and rarely have to create a custom object, but this seems like a case for doing so to create a custom html report. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Ryan

It's not really all that strange.
If you look at your script, you're not outputting the hash table until both loops finish. The values are dependent on the properties of the $app objects enumerated in the inner loop, and only outputting an object if the dependent ($d) matches the $app
guid property.
At the end, you're outputting the hash table without that test, so it's going to have values based on the last $app in the loop, regardless of whether the guid matches the dependents or not.

"Object reference not set to an instance of an object" on loading reports

Hi,
I get "object reference not set to an instance of an object" for some charts in a report.
Software: SQL Server 2008 R2 SP2 & SharePoint 2010
I have 2 reports each with multiple graphs & tables. The reports are used in SharePoint integrated mode.
3 months back Report1 gave the error for 4 specific charts. After a few days, the error vanished magically & all charts displayed correctly.
I recently deployed Report2 which also contains charts & tables. After a few days, the 1st chart itself would not display throwing this error. I deleted the Report2 from SharePoint and redeployed it. Now the error is shown for 2 charts in between &
I again see the error for the same 4 charts of Report1.
Since deleting and redeploying the Report2, moved the error to a different chart, it does not look like a problem with the chart itself. Please suggest on what I can do further.

Hi,
This is a general error message. I would ask the following questions to verify the issue:
1. Are these charts inside the table?
2. Does the table display fine? What’s the size of the report and charts?
Please try download the latest cumulative update package for SQL Server 2008 R2 Service Pack 2 from the following link and see if it address the issue:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2730301/en-us
You can also capture the screenshots regarding the issue so that I can understand
problem in more details.
Thanks.
