Unable to Schedule Crystal reports 2008 based on MSAS 2000

Hi,
I created Crystal Report 2008 (XI R 3.1 SP3 FP 3.2) on Cube MSAS 2000 SP4. I do not see any option to configure database credentials. While creating report in the wizard I did not enter any User name and Password Info (I have admin credentials to Cube but when I give these credentials and try to create report, CR designer hangs, not sure why?). The idea is to pick cube level security for the user who is trying to view / refesh the report.
Could you please help: 1. To configure Database info in CMC
2. To implement cube level security to these crystal reports.
Nanda Kishore.

Hi Experts,
Could you please help. My intention to capture Cube Level Security while refrshing Crystal Reports in Infoview.
I am uanble to refresh report in Infoview.

Unable to display Crystal Reports 2008 PDF output on smart phones

Hi Folks,
I'm not sure if this is the proper forum, but here goes. I am just finishing a large ASP.NET web app which makes extensive use of Crystal Reports 2008 and a CrystalReportViewer control. My users routinely e-mail the reports in PDF format. This works great, except now they tell me that when the recipient of the e-mail tries to open the PDF on an iPhone or Blackberry, it will not open. The PDF's open fine on desktop computers.
Here is the code which generates the PDF and attaches it to the e-mail msg.
// export to PDF, then mail that
SmtpClient client = new SmtpClient();
MailAddress from = new MailAddress(ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["ReportMailFrom"].ToString());
MailMessage message = new MailMessage();
message.From = from;
message.SubjectEncoding = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8;
message.Subject = "E-mail BackOffice report: " + strReportName;
MemoryStream memStream = (MemoryStream)rptDoc.ExportToStream(ExportFormatType.PortableDocFormat);
Attachment data = new Attachment(memStream, MediaTypeNames.Application.Pdf);
ContentDisposition disposition = data.ContentDisposition;
disposition.CreationDate = DateTime.Now;
disposition.ModificationDate = DateTime.Now;
disposition.FileName = strReportName + ".pdf";
disposition.DispositionType = DispositionTypeNames.Attachment;
message.Attachments.Add(data);
client.Send(message);
Any ideas on what is happening here and how to make these PDF's visible to smart phones?
Thanks.
Dan

Hi Dan,
What happens if you export from Crystal Reports designer?
I just tried if and BlackBerry tells me I am about to download a file that cannot be viewed on the phone. It doesn't say why though.
Going through the Platforms file it doesn't mention smart phones so it would indicate we don't support them in that format.
HTML worked but not pretty. You'll have to see what Blackberry does support. I found this one kbase article from them:
http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/search.do?cmd=displayKC&docType=kc&externalId=KB11245&sliceId=SAL_Public&dialogID=206744335&stateId=1%200%20206742756
I'm testing more but I believe this is a blackberry limit and not CR.
Seems they do support it but very limited.
Thank you
Don

Unable to install Crystal Reports 2008 SP07

Hi, everyone
Currently using
Crystal Reports 2008 Product: 12.4.0.966
I have the problem about installation of Crystal Reports 2008 Service Pack.
I could upgrade it to SP4. However, I'm not able to install Crystal Reports 2008 Service Pack 07 update due to the error message product version is too old.
Does someone have any similar experience?
Regrards,
Kano

Hello Takumo,
You can upgrade to SP7 only if you have SP5 or SP6 install. This is why you are getting error when upgrading from SP4 to SP7.
So, you have to follow this path CR2008 SP4 -> SP5 or SP6 -> SP7
Else you can also install full build as suggested by Abhilash.

SAP Crystal Report (2008) through SQL Query parameters

Hi,
I Created a report in Crystal report (2008) based on Sql Query. I created parameters in SQL query prompt only (all single valued).
Based on this I need to show the data in detail section.
For Graph, I used another SQL query, and added one subreport to the Main report header section. Since this subreport is also using the SQL query prompts for taking parameters.
Since both the reports are using same set of parameters. I mapped Main report parameters to sub-report parameters.
So Now structure is like,
In a report there is one subreport.
Main report ....SQL query generates parameter prompt..same parameters is passed to subreport.
In subreport there are sql generated prompts. and we mapped that prompts to main report parameter prompts.
Now it is running fine from crystal report, but not from CMC. It is not showing the graph.
Made Two Experiment:
1. To check subreport is running or not , Mannualy put my name in sub report--working fine.(CMC)
2. To check the parameters are correctly mapped--printed the value in subreport--Showing all the parameters value from CMC
but it is not running the SQL query of that sub report.
Any suggestion ?? Or is there anyoption to check?? Or a CMC setting.
Please suggest and respond..
Thank you in advance.!!

Hi Rajeev,
This is Crystal reports development community, you said the report is working fine in Crystal. it is problem in CMC. So the issue is at BI Server.
So i think you need to create the thread in the below community.

Crystal reports 2008 install freezes on disk space req.

Unable to install Crystal reports 2008 on server - Windows Server 2008 standard. This is required moving forward for troubleshooting purposes.
The installation freezes when determining disk space requirements.
I have tried copying the installation files locally to the server, but same issue occurs.
I have confirmed I am a local administrator, and there are no policies preventing installation.
I have installed this same software on other servers before.

Thomas's reply also worked for me! Here is the cut/paste excerpt from the link he provided that was the filnal solution, so you won't have to go to that link an read the entire post:
go back to initial phases of the installation and add french into language packs.
then pick custom installation.
don't play with anything.

Crystal Reports 2008 - automation and scheduling

Hey there Crystal Reports experts... please answer this question:
I've been evaluating the Crystal Reports 2008 package (client package) and have been able to generate some nice summary reports form our SQL database using summary pages which have multiple (up to 4) embedded sub-reports in them. I think it's doing what I need it to, but my next hurdle is to automate the summary report for 100+ different customers of ours. The criteria which changes for each customer is a table value in each subreport as well as the date range for the data on the report. I also need to have the title in the report header of each customer, change to reflect the different customer name and date range.
Is there a way to automate this with the standard Crystal Reports 2008 version? I've found a few 3rd party applications online that take care of the Crystal Report automation and scheduling as well as conditional data selection at the same time... is that what I need to use if we don't have ther server version of Crystal, or can I automate it using just the standard 2008 client version??

Hi,
Yes, you need the CR 2008 client license to create the reports and then the server license to distribute the reports.
CR Server 2008 is a single server reporting solution for distributing Crystal Reports only. BOE is a full BI server that can be scaled beyond a single server solution. In addition to just reporting it has other capabilities such as ad hoc query and analysis, dashboarding/scorecarding, etc.
CR Server 2008 currently does not include the "Publishing" functionality yet. Therefore, if you schedule the report to email, all users will see the exact same report. BOE XI 3.1 does have "Publishing" which lets you burst the report so that through a single schedule, each user only sees their slice of the data for that report. You can still use CR Server to accomplish something similar, but it would require you to setup an individual schedule per every customer where each schedule is configured to only return the appropriate data for that customer. This would require a little more effort to setup and maintain.

New Crystal Reports 2008 Server Installation - Unable to log on...

Hi,
For the first time, I installed Crystal Reports 2008 on a Windows 2008, 64bit server.
When I load up the CMC, I end up getting a server not found error. I proceeded to load up the CCM, and noticed that Apache and the related logon credentials are working fine. I see a green arrow next to the server name.
I click on the "Manage Servers" icon and the servername, user name, and authentication is pre-filled. I enter in the password and receive the following error:
Unable to log on: Could not connect to server servername. Please check that the server name is correct, and that the server is running.
Can anyone offer suggestions on how to troubleshoot further?
Thank You,
Chris

can you access apache root? try hitting http://servername:8080/
If not is tomcat running in the CCM?

Tim

Unable to create reports in Crystal Reports 2008

Please help
Wini

I have found another thread really interesting, might help you too.. here it is
There are a number of reasons this error can occur.   The most common is that the TNS connect descriptor can't be parsed correctly.
Read an article about this -- The main thrust was:
"You are using reserved symbols to identify the client computer. Sqlnet/Net8 has a character set for keyword value entries, which is restricted to single-byte characters. However certain single-byte characters are reserved symbols within Sqlnet/Net8. These reserve symbols are:
                  ( ) = \ " ' #
Sqlnet/Net8 passes client information, such as host, username, and program executable to the database during connection establishment as part of an 'exteneded' connected discriptor. Using a reserved
character can cause connection failures resulting in ORA-6413, Connection not open errors. In particular the open and close parenthesis symbols ( ) being used to identify the client computer.
This would be noticeable in the Sqlnet.log where the errors are shown."
This refers back to a bug Bug No. 813483
Problem: When a WinNT client machine is rebooted, the first connection attempt to the database fails with
ora-6413.
Diagnostic Analysis: connection fails on the first attempt after a machine reboot. Subsequent tries succeeds.
Reproducibility: every time.
The second issue:   Check your tnsnames.ora file if you are missing the "_" or "underbar / underscore" of any   line, this error will be returned. ( ie, like   ADDRESS_LIST or CONNECT_DATA
ie:
xxxx.foo.bar.com =
(DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
        (ADDRESS =
          (COMMUNITY = tcp.world)
          (PROTOCOL = TCP)
          (Host = server.foo.bar.com)
          (Port = 1521)
    (CONNECT_DATA = (SID =xxxx))

Unable To Print or Access Page Setup in Crystal Reports 2008

I have Win 7 32 bit, and installed Crystal Reports 2008 last week (v12.0.0.683 from the Help window).
Every time I open a report, and from the Preview tab clicking File -> Print, or File - > Page Setup, I immediately receive a Windows message that "Crystal Reports has stopped working". After a few seconds, another Windows message displays "Crystal Reports has stopped working - a problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available". Then Crystal completely closes.
I downloaded sample reports from the BO website, and still receive the error, so I don't think it's the report.
When I view the Event Log, I see the following:

Please update all installed products to the SP1 patch level, then restart this installation".
Need to print my reports - any ideas?

Sorry busy on Support cases and they take precedence over this community forum.
Very interesting....
In a test application I use I have this routine to get the local printers:
private void frmMain_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
     if (System.Drawing.Printing.PrinterSettings.InstalledPrinters.Count > 0)
          foreach(String myPrinter in System.Drawing.Printing.PrinterSettings.InstalledPrinters )
               cboCurrentPrinters.Items.Add(myPrinter);
          cboCurrentPrinters.SelectedIndex = 0;
     else
          rdoCurrent.Enabled = false;
          EnableDisableCurrentControls(false);
     //For printers exposed to System account as per MS Kbase
     //http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;184291
     //Look to HKEY_USERS\.Default\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Devices
     Microsoft.Win32.RegistryKey mySystemPrinters =
          Microsoft.Win32.Registry.Users.OpenSubKey(@".DEFAULT\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Devices");
     foreach (String defaultPrinters in mySystemPrinters.GetValueNames())
          cboDefaultPrinters.Items.Add(defaultPrinters);
     if (cboDefaultPrinters.Items.Count > 0)
          cboDefaultPrinters.SelectedIndex = 0;
     else
          rdoDefault.Enabled = false;
Note the MS Kabse on where the printer registry is. Now the odd part is on one of my test development PC's it won't populate the Default User Printer list, only the Local User Printers. I take this same app to another PC and it works just fine. The register keys are there but for some reason on my Windows 7 64 bit it won't show them, the other strange part is I have full access to both keys. I have not been able to figure out why this happens...
I'm thinking this may be related to your issue.... But I don't have a solution, very strange... I've even gone into regedit32 and set full permissions on the various keys and it still doesn't work...
I have other VM-ware images if I need to get past that part for testing so I never drilled into why, I believe it has to be some Windows/Firewall/Anti-virus configuration or something our IT department pushed into my local Profile.... What that is I don't know unfortunately.
I'll do some looking and testing. You may want to post this on Microsoft forums as well.... Ask about printer permissions.
Thanks
Don

How to overcome the Memory leakage issue in crystal report 2008 SP2 setup.

I have developed the small windows based application tool with help of Visual studio 2008 for identify the memory consumption of crystal report object. It helps to load the crystal report objects in the memory and then released the object from the memory. The tool simply does the u201CLoading and Unloadingu201D the objects in the memory.
The tool will be started once u201CTest_MemoryConsumption.Exeu201D executed. The u201CTest_MemoryConsumption.Exeu201D consumes u201C9768 KBu201D memory before load the crystal report object in memory. It means, 9768 KB is normal memory consumption for run the tool.
Crystal report object initiated by the tool and object help to load the report in memory once the tool initiated the crystal report object. Now u201CTest_MemoryConsumption.Exeu201D consumes u201C34980 KBu201D memory during the crystal report object creation and report load process. The actual memory consumption of crystal report object is 34980u20139768=u201C25212u201DKBu201D.
The memory consumption u201C34980 KBu201D will be continued till the end of the process. The memory consumption will be reduced to u201C34652 KBu201D from u201C34980 KBu201D once report load process completed. It means, u201C328 KBu201D memory only released from the memory consumption. Tool enables the Release command for the crystal report object. But crystal report object does not respond to the command and will not release his memory consumption.
The memory consumption u201C34652 KBu201D will be stayed in the memory once job ends. If i again initiate the crystal report object then it crystal report object start to consume the memory from 34652 KB.
Database objects and crystal report objects are properly used in the tool. The object release commands properly communicated to crystal report setup. But the u201CCrystal report service pack 2u201D setup unable to respond the commands which has enabled from .Net Tool. Crystal report objects are properly initiated and disposed in the tool. But the crystal report unable to release from the server.
The memory consumption will be reduced once the server restarted or kill the application.
Crystal report 2008 and crystal report 2008 SP2 setup available in the server.
Microsoft .Net Framework 2.0 SP2, Microsoft .Net Framework 3.0 SP2 and Microsoft .Net Framework 3.5 SP1 are available in the server,
Could you please suggesst how to avoid the memory consumption keep increasing and how to release the memory consumption once the crystal object disposed???

Hi Don..
My case is different one. I hope, the problem with Run time Installation setup file (Crystal report 2008 Serivce Pack2 installer) which we installed in the server.
Let me explain with Live scenario which our client faced in crystal report 2008 Service pack2 Installer.
Our client is using a application to help to print their reports. The application is developed with Windows service.
Windows service keep on running in the server. Windows service executes the client 's crystal reports( Labels Report, Stock report) which designed for clients need and the reports will be printed from printer.
10 Same type report (Label Report) will be printed in 1 minute. Reports are not printing during non business hours. But the windows service keep on running. Memory cosumption of application will be 160 MB in business hours.
For Example, On Monday the application memory consumption starts with 160 MB. The Memory consumption will be reached 165 MB in peak business hours. Then the memory will be ended in163 MB in the End of Monday. It means, The memory consumption will be in 163 MB during the non business hours. Reports will not be printed in non business hours.
On Tuesday, the application memory consumption starts with 163 MB and it will be reached 168 MB during the peak hours. The Memory consumption will be ended in 165 MB in the end of Tuesday. The same process contiues till friday. End of friday, the memory consumption of the application will be ended with 170 MB.
Application Memory Consumption slowly increasing in the server. In 5 days, Memory consumption reached Threshold value (170 MB) of the server. Application gets hanged up once the memory consumption reached 170 MB. We got the error messages as "Attempted to read write protected memory " / "Not Enough memory for process". If we restart server / If we restart the service then memory consumption of application get reduced to 160 MB.
From the above scenario, We came know that the either the problem with Application object or the problem crystal report object. In the application, We have checked dispose methods of application objects completly. I am sure that application objects are properly disposed in the application. I hope the problem not with application objects. The problem with Crystal report objects.
Application properly communicates the dispose methods to crystal report objects. Crystal report objects are not released from
the memory.
Crystal report 2008 Serive Pack 2 setup installed in the server.
As you said, If Crystal report runtime is not released from memory then memory consumption keep increase??? In service oriented architecture application, how to unload the crystal report runtime??
Do you any fix for this kind of issue??
Willl Crystal report 2008 service pack 3 help on this issue??

Error in Crystal Reports 2008 Runtime Version = 12.2.3.467

Dear Support Team
 
 
I am making the setup for our application using InstallShield 2010.
 
 
I recently updated the crystal reports 2008 runtime to version = 12.2.3.467.
 
 
Based on this article
 
 
 
 
Topic of the week (October 15, 2009)
 
Date time field is blank when using ADO .NET dataset and Crystal Reports 2008, Service Pack 2.0
 
This is a new issue, very specific to CR 2008 and SP 2. Date time fields are stripped out of a report (or not
 
visible), if a report is consuming a .NET dataset which contains a date time field. A technical escalation has been
 
submitted and a work-around is detailed in note number 1392258
 
 
 
Since DateTime Column was not getting displayed in the deployment machine when running the report.
 
 
So I downloaded the Crystal Report 2008 FP2.3 and merge module for the same and installed on my development machine
 
 
where I am making the Setup.
 
 
I am able to make the setup successfully without errors, but when I try to install the setup on the deployment machine I am getting
 
the errors as
 
 
Error 1904.Module C:\Program Files\BusinessObjects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86\CEReportSource.dll
 
failed to register
 
Same message pops up for N number of Crystal Dlls with message failed to register.
 
Even though as per article in your forums I am doing everything right.
 
I have correct Dll for VC++ 2005
 u2022
 
Microsoft_VC80_ATL_x86.msm; version 8.0.50727.762
 
 
u2022 Microsoft_VC80_CRT_x86.msm version 8.0.50727.762

u2022 Microsoft_VC80_OpenMP_x86.msm; version 8.0.50727.762
 
 
With exactly same versions as mentioned in the article.
 
 
I followed the article in your forum
 
Building a deployment project with Crystal Reports 2008 (12.1.0.892) SP1
 
Posted on Mar. 09, 2009 08:22 AM in Business Objects
 
The same sort of errors is coming but I am doing everything right as per that article.
 
 
To Inform you further before updating crystal reports 2008 runtime to version = 12.2.3.467.
 
 
Everything was working fine, only problem was that Date Time column was not displaying at runtime on the deployment
 
 
machine.

Edited by: arshhb on Dec 29, 2009 7:11 AM

Dear Mr. Williams
I dont think this is the issue related to MS Installer. Still based on your suggestion I downloaded the latest MS Installer from Microsoft Website and Installed on my setup machine and made the new setup with zero errors and warning.
The deployment machine is having full rights and so there is no security issues related to installation even though to clear the confusion I installed the setup on three other xp machines the result was same even after installing the latest MS installer on those machines as well.
I wanrt to remind it again since I was facing the DATE TIME column Issue problem in reports on deployment machines so I updated the Crystal Reports TO CRFP 2.3 EXE AND MSM as mentioned in your forums regarding this known bug that if datetime column is getting from dataset then that column was not getting displayed.
From that time onwards I am unable to install the setup on the deployment machines and I am getting errors unable to register errors crystal reports dlls.
Apart from that I downloaded Crystal Reports 2008 Fix Pack 2.3 - Redist Install (cr2008_fp23_redist.zip) from the download page but i can't open it I am gettinig the error message doesnt appear to be a valid archive.
Please help me and provide me some solution regardeing the issue I am stuck with.

Problems with consuming SAP BW WSDL in Crystal Reports 2008

Hello,
I am trying to use the WSDL generated from the SAP BW in Crystal Reports 2008 using the XML and Web Services driver, but when I input the WSDL url Crystal does not interpret the url passed in as a WSDL url and the Services, Port and Method drop downs are blank.
If I manually input the values I get the error below from Crystal
"Logon failed.
Details: Web Service Location is invalid
WSDL Exception (at /wsdl:definitions/wsdl:portType/wsp:Policy): faultCode=INVALID_WSDL:Encountered unexpected element
'Policy'."
I know this is a valid WSDL as I have tested it with Xcelsius 2008 and I am able to get data back in Xcelsius. I found SAP note 1485601 that talks about Crystal Reports not being able to reading a WSDL generated by a SAP system.
           https://websmp230.sap-ag.de/sap/support/notes/1485601
Based on the error message from Crystal above I feel that Crystal is unable to read the WSDL URL, has anyone else encountered this issue, if so is there a possible work around.
We are running Crystal Reports 2008 V1 SP3 FP 3 and the SAP Integration Kit is also on the same service pack and patch level.
Any help or insight into the issue will be very helpful.
Thanks,
Kumar

Ingo,
I am using the "XML and Web Services" connection option in Crystal Reports, and using a HTTP WSDL.Here is a sample of how WSDL url generated by SAP BW.
http://servername:8000/sap/bc/srt/wsdl/bndg_DF6E553E117931F19C6B001560A1B616/wsdl11/allinone/ws_policy/document?sap-client=100
We have a two structure BW query (one for keyfigures and one as characteristic structure ), I know that this will cause the structure for the characteristics to show up as a single field and each element of the structure will result in a row of data, but we need the individual elements on the structure and we were hoping to get around the MDX driver limitation by using the web service connection.
The data in the Crystal Reports 2008 needs to be in a crosstab layout as shown below, but if we use the Crosstab expert the key figures are stacked one under the other and also we cannot get the labels from the KPI structure to show up on the Crystal Reports.
               Characteristic Structure
             Column1            Column2                     Column3
Label 1          KeyFigure 1          KeyFigure 2                    KeyFigure 3
Label 2          KeyFigure 1          KeyFigure 2                KeyFigure 3
Label 3          KeyFigure 1          KeyFigure 2                    KeyFigure 3
This layout is already built in a Web Template and therefore we were planning on using the WSDL to get the layout directly into Crystal report, but I keep running into the WSDL error when I try to consume the WSDL in Crystal.
Thanks,
Kumar
