Unable to print a report- Server Error

I have a java/CR XI (sp3) web application which will display reporters but will not print them. When attempting to print the Crystal report viewer page shows the print dialog page with a choice of printers. When I select a printer and press print. I get a "Server Error" message box that says "An error occured on the server. Printing will be stopped. Would you like to view the error information?" When I say "yes" I get a blank page "PrintControlError.html". There is also a background window that says "Retrieving page 1".

That suggest a communication issue between the ActiveX Print Control and the server.
The ActiveX Print Control posts back to the generating page for each page that it prints out.
If you use [Fiddler|http://www.fiddlertool.com/] (.NET based) or [Charles|http://www.charlesproxy.com/] (Java based) on the client browser machine, are you able to see any error messages in the page 1 request?
ActiveX controls usually hide interesting error messages.

but when I go to the OEM of the report server - ports , it does not show me the port used as 4444 , the field is blank.
is there any place I need to make the port change to 4444

Error calling report FRM-41213 unable to connect to Report Server

Hi,
I have installed Oracle Database 10g R2 and Oracle Developer 10gR2.
I installed it in both Windows 2000 SP4 and Windows XP SP2.
I would like to call a Report using a button inside Oracle Form.
I create my own Report Server, using : rwserver server=repsrv
A Java-based window appear OracleAS Reports Sevice, and showed that repsrv is ready.
In Form (inside a button -> WHEN-BUTTON-PRESSED) :
1. Using RUN_REPORT_OBJECT()
   rep_id := find_report_object('REPORT10');
     if not id_null(rep_id) then
       v_rep := run_report_object(rep_id);
     else
          message('Null');
   end if;
   a. If I did not specify the name of the Report Server in Reports node of Form's property object
(I leave it blank)
The following error appear :
FRM-41211: Integration error, SSL failure running another product
b. If I specify the name of the Report Server : repsrv
The following error appear :
FRM-41213: Unable to connect to Reports Server repsrv
2. Using WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT()
a. If did not I specify the server name in the parameter
WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT('http://localhost:8889/reports/rwservlet/getjobid'|| SUBSTR(v_rep,INSTR(v_rep,'_',-1)+1)||'?'||,'_blank');Another web browser appear and the following error appear :
REP-51002: Bind to Reports Server rep_<computer_name> failed
b. If I specify the server name in the parameter --> server='repsrv'
WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT('http://localhost:8889/reports/rwservlet/getjobid'|| SUBSTR(v_rep,INSTR(v_rep,'_',-1)+1)||'?'||'server=repsrv','_blank');Another web browser appear and the following error appear :
REP-51002: Bind to Reports Server repsrv failed
In Report :
If I try to navigate manually to :
1. http://localhost:8889/reports/rwservlet using web browser.
It showed OracleAS Report Services - Servlet Command Help page.
2. http://localhost:8889/reports/rwservlet?userid=scott/tiger@orcl&report=D:\PRACTICE\FORM\MODULE1.JSP&destype=cache&desformat=html
The following error occured
REP-51002: Bind to Reports Server rep_<computer_name> failed
3. Finally,
http://localhost:8889/reports/rwservlet?server=REPSRV&userid=scott/tiger@orcl&report=C:\PRACTICE\FORM\MODULE1.JSP&destype=cache&desformat=html
The following error occured
REP-51002: Bind to Reports Server repsrv failed
4. Any attempt to different command (i.e showenv, showjobs, etc) seems failed
If I did not specify the server then REP-51002: Bind to Reports Server rep_<computer_name> failed
If I specify the server - 'repsrv' then REP-51002: Bind to Reports Server repsrv failed
5. I have tried to use rwrun in command line.
rwrun report="D:\My Documents\form\module1.jsp" userid=scott/tiger@orcl destype=file desformat=pdf desname="D:\My Documents\form\module2.pdf"
The PDF file created and it looks exactly as the web layout as in Oracle Report Builder (Run Web Layout CTRL-R)
Question :
1. What supposed to be done?
The Report server is ready, but the web browser seems unable to connect to Report Server.
2. Can we used or call or executed an executable command line from Form (using PL/SQL inside button)?
Any help would be grateful.
Many thanks,
Buntoro

Hi,
Problem solved.
I got the solution from another post.
Re: REP-51002: Bind to Reports Server rep failed
Here are the step I did.
Note : Please make backup for the following file : rwnetwork.conf
- In file rwnetwork.conf, remove or commented the following
<multicast channel="228.5.6.7" port="14021" timeout="1000" retry="3"/>
- And then uncommented
<namingService name="Cos" host="%NAMING_HOST%" port="%NAMING_PORT%"/>
- replace the
%NAMING_HOST% with your computer name or specify an IP address
%NAMING_PORT% with 14021
It should look like this :
<namingService name="Cos" host="blahblah" port="14021"/>
- I did not change the : name="Cos", since I do not understand what does it for
- Save you changes.
- Start the OC4J.
- Find the location of : namingservice.bat (on Windows platform)
- execute in the command line : namingservice.bat 14021
- finally start the report in the web browser
Note:
To shutdown the namingservice, use : namingservice.bat 14021 shutdown
Regards.

Unable to print the report after SP2 (CR 2008 / VS 2008)?

I'm developing an ASP.NET application using VS 2008 (Framework 3.5). I have installed CR 2008 with SP (0, 1, and 2).
I created an invoice report and I printed it as test for the report and it works okay. I needed to change the page size of the report to a user defined size and reset all of the margins to zero.
After I did that I was unable to print the report again and every time I tried to print the report nothing gets printed.
I checked my environment to find the cause of this problem but I found nothing except that I'm using CR runtime for SP1 and I'm currently using SP2. So I did remove CR runtime for SP1 and install CR runtime for SP2.
The problem didn't go away and I faced one more problem.
Usually I'm using a dataset as a data source for my reports. After installing the CR runtime for SP2 I couldn't see any date column in my report data source (Dataset). All other types of columns appear except date fields! Why I have no Idea?
After I do some more testing regarding my issue I found out the following
1. When I add a new report to my web application and I don't change the page setting the report work fine.
2. When I change the page setup settings (Page Margins, horizontal width and vertical height) the report show up okay but never gets printed.
Why I don't know?
Addition to that the report dataset (Data Source) showing in the field explorer never shows any date type field?
All of the above issues happened with me after installing SP2.
OS: WindowsXP Pro SP3
CR 2008 (SP 0, 1, 2)
VS 2008 SP1
Please I need your help.

Hi, Sami;
Are you printing from the Crystal preview window, or in code?
If you are printing from the preview window, try printing via code, such as:
An example of print to printer:
crReportDocument = New ReportDocument
crReportDocument.Load("h:\labels2.rpt")
''Use error handling in case an error occurs
Try
''Set the printer name to print the report to. By default the sample
''report does not have a defult printer specified. This will tell the
''engine to use the specified printer to print the report. Print out
''a test page (from Printer properties) to get the correct value.
crReportDocument.PrintOptions.PrinterName = "
dwcb12003\ZDesigner ZM400 200 dpi (ZPL)"
''Start the printing process. Provide details of the print job
''using the arguments.
crReportDocument.PrintToPrinter(1, True, 1, 1)
Please post your question about the dataset as a new post.
Regards,
Jonathan

Unable to Start Oracle Reports Server

Hi,
I downloaded patch 17 for Oracle Forms and Reports 6i. Now I am unable to start my Reports server.
I am getting the following message:
Windows could not start the Oracle Reports Server [Rep60_XXX] on Local Computer. For more information, review the System Event Log. If this is a non-Microsoft service, contact the service vendor, and refer to service-specific error code 186.
Did anyone encounter this problem? Please let me know how to fix it or do I need to go back to Patch 13 as I am working on XP.
Thanks in Advance.

No current report server error

Using Report Builder 3.0, I get no current report server error and when I run the report I get no data. Does anyone know how I can remedy this problem?
sukai

Hi sukai,
Based on your description, it seems that you have not connect report server when you run a report in Report Builder. In this scenario, I suggest that you should click the Connect option with “No current report server” in the lower-left corner.
If you have access to the machine where SSRS is installed, you can open up the Reporting Services Configuration Manager. Then you can see the Report Server Web Service URLs in the Web Service URL tab. Another option is directly type the following URL in
the popup window:
http://<machine name>/ReportServer_<SQL Server instance name>
If you have any other questions, please feel free to ask.

Custom Item updating throws Unable to Communicate with the server Error.

Hi Team,
I am trying to Implement Form based authentication in SharePoint 2013. When trying to update membership list (A Custom List) item it throws "Unable to Communicate with the Server" error. As shown in below image.
Please let me know how to resolve this issue.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Murali,
I'm having a similiar problem with one of my customers. We haven't been able to resolve it but we have found a way around it, I'd like to do more testing but my customer justs wants to get on with it now that we have a workaround. Logging a call with Microsoft
can be expensive, most businesses have a finite amount of support hours so you really have to do your homework before you starting chewing those hours up.
Problem Description:
Customer created a custom list with two calculated columns and various choice, string and multi-string columns. Customer was attempting to copy and paste 128 rows of data into each column from a spreadsheet. The first (title) column successfully pasted
128 values.
Subsequent columns would paste the values but not allow the values to be committed as every row displayed the "Unable to Communicate with the Server" message, preventing the list from being saved.
Workaround:
The problem appears to be related to the number of items the customer is trying to paste during each operation and the relationship this has with the calculated columns. We found that when we pasted 70 or less items in one operation we did not receive the
error. I attempted pasting 128 rows of data into a seperate list with the same columns excluding the calculated columns, and was successfully able to paste all 128 rows.
For the problem list I suggested to the customer to copy the formula's from the calculated columns, delete these columns and then trying pasting again, he didn't like the idea as he's happy to paste in 50% chunks. Based on the fact I was able to paste
without any problems on a list without calculated columns I would suggest it's related.
So my questions for you are:
Are you trying to paste/add multiple values at once?
Do you have any special column types, i.e. calculated or lookup columns?
What columns do you have in your list?
Have you tried adding the entries in using form entry instead of grid entry?
Unforunately I don't know how generic this error message is, there is absolutely nothing in my ULS logs or event viewer. If this error is specific to submitting data to a list in grid view it would make it easier to diagnose, but if the error is generic
in nature your problem could be as obscure as the FBA configuration.
I hope this information helps you, I will try and do some more testing.

"unable to get printer status" and "server-error-not-accepting-jobs"

I've got an Intel Mac Pro with Tiger. When I accepted the latest update from Apple, I lost all my defined printers! I've re-added a local USB printer and a networked Laserjet - fine. But I also added a Phaser 850 color printer (networked) which used to work fine. It connects ok, and opens the printer queue window, but when it tries to print, it says "Unable to get printer status (server-error-not-accepting-jobs". The queue stays active (not stopped) but the jobs don't move. I've tried deleting the printer and re-making it - same deal. What's going on?

Crystal Reports Server Error - Unable to cast object of type

Hi Everyone,
Not sure if this is the right place to post this question but couldn't find a Crystal Reports Server section.
After doing a windows update on my crystal reports server the following error now occurs when trying to log into .Net InfoView -
An error has occurred: Unable to cast object of type 'CrystalDecisions.Enterprise.InfoObject' to type 'BusinessObjects.Enterprise.Desktop.InfoView'.
I found the following article which I followed and re-installed the .net components as well as ensured all services are enabled.

I'd try creating a new Application Pool just for running businessobjects and crystalreportviewers11 and nothing else.
Although the apps are .NET, it uses COM Interop for functionality, so using a common app pool with other versions will collide.
Beyond that - if you have a SAP Business Objects support contract - you might open a new SAP Incident ticket.

Report Server: Error initializing printer

Oracle Report Server 6.0 for Windows NT doesn't work. When I try to call any report I get next error message:
Error message returned from Reports server:
REP-3002: Error initializing printer.
Please make sure a printer is installed.
The printer is installed on Windows NT server and is default. Where is the error? My URL example:

What ideas?

Fyi -- in Reports 6i a printer is no longer mandatory. eg if you're only doing web publishing, you don't need to setup a printer and give the Reports server access to it (of course, if you're trying to print from Reports - you need a printer! ;-).
To answer your question, make sure the USER that is running the Reports server as an NT service has access to a printer. If it's the SYSTEM account (goto Control Panel -> Services and double click on the Oracle Reports Server xxxxx entry (where xxxxx is the name of the server) and look at the user account that is running the server. If it's the SYSTEM account, it doesn't have access to a printer, so change it to a user (either local or domain user) that does have printer access.
