Unknown Database Connector Error Details: "Failed to retrieve SQL Error"

Hi
Getting "Failed to retrieve SQL Error" while trying to refresh the Crystal report.
Unable to create a new report also
This is my ERROR MESSAGE
"Unknown Database Connector Error Details: "Failed to retrieve SQL Error"
Previous Error: Query generated multiple SQL statements.However multiple SQL is not supported in crystal reports query panel"
Any Suggestion.

Hi,
Please note that any query that generates multiple SQL statements is not supported in the Query Panel in Crystal Reports.
I guess this Universe is generating multiple SQLs and hence the error.
I found this option while I was searching for something else: Could you try turning off the "Multiple SQL statement for each measure" in the Universe parameters and see if it works?
Also, here's the Universe Support Guide, although old, it is still applicable:

Unable to retrieve Object.Error in File: Unknown Database Connector Error

Hi,
I have deployed two report on BO XI server. Both the reports are designed in Crystal Report designer XI.
I got all database credentilas, saved in CMC by my administrator so that these reports should not prompt me for any database login parameters when I am trying to run them from BOXI test server.
When I am running one of my report, the report is working fine. But this is not the case with other report.
This second report is working well with some inputs.
Case 1 - It is having to input date parameter(Date1 and Date2), when I am entering one input date parameter (Date1) and other (Date2) is set to NULL, it is displaying correct result. But when I am giving any date for Date2 it is throwing me an error -
"Error in File Manager_Agent_Report.rpt: Unknown Database Connector Error
Unable to retrieve Object.
Error in File Manager_Agent_Report.rpt: Unknown Database Connector Error "
Case 2 - Similiarly it is having an other input field which I am using in filetering the records in Report.
If I am setting it to NULL or If I am not giving this field, while entering the input. I am getting an output.
But incase I am giving this particular field then again it is promptig me the above mentioned error.
The report are working fine if I am executing them from crystal report designer.
Please help me to find a solution for the same.
Thanks
Deepak

Deepak, firstly are you trying to connect to one database or two in these reports? I would check the ODBC connections both in server and client machine (testing server or whatever you testing it on). Make sure both connection settings are exactly the same.
Secondly I will check the parameters values under Objects under the CMC and see if there is anything changed there.
Report back if you have checked both and it still giving errors

Unknown Database connector Error - Crystal Reports 2008 and OLE DB

Hi,
I want to create a report based on OLE DB provider.
Once I Select it from the Database Expert list I get this Error: "Unknown Database Connector Error", and the list is empty.
I am using Crystal Reports 2008 on Win XP SP2.
SQL Server 2005 is installed on the local machine.
If I create a UDL File and double click, I can see all OLE DB Providers on the machine.
What am I missing ?
Thanks,
Yuval.

Hi Friends,
Thank you all for trying to help.
- The installed MDAC version is 2.8 (It comes with XP SP2). I have tried installing it again and it says that it is already installed.
- I am not using a bussiness view. Just the simplest blank report in CR2008. I am not able to start it using OLE DB, once I want to choose a provider - I get the error, before even entering connection details such as username and password.
- I am able to build an ODBC report, but when trying to view it using Crystal Reports Windows Form Viewer (from within a .Net application) I get an error: "Failed to Open The Connection". It happens also with reports built on other machines using OLE DB.
Same report works fine with the same application on different machines and I cannot figure out what is the difference.
I think Something on my machine is not right.
Any suggestions ?
Thanks,
Yuval.

Intermittent Unknown Database Connector Error: "Object reference"

Don't know if I'm posting to the right forum. Please redirect me if this post belongs elsewhere.
We use a .NET application by SunGard (Advance Web). We have a whole bunch of Crystal reports we've deployed through this application, and they all work. . .most of the time.
We occasionally, however, find that ALL our Crystal reports return this error:
Unknown Database Connector Error Error in File C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\Report1003 {7B4DBA4D-3EA7-4545-83DB-F5A56AE945FF}.rpt: Unknown Database Connector Error
CrystalReportViewer - CrystalReportViewer1
Error: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
If we reboot the server, the reports all work again. But sooner or later they start to fail w/ the same error message.
We have Crystal Reports 11.5.8.826 installed on the server.
The network service account has full read/write access to its temp directory (C:\Windows\TEMP).
The reports have never failed when we've used this application on a different server, so we're wondering if there's something amiss with the server.
Anybody have an idea of what's happening here?

Sorry. My mistake. That note wasn't tagged correctly so it didn't show up on the public side of the SAP Note system. I've fixed the tag but it will still take a day or two for it to replicate to the other system. I've pasted the contents of the note below.

Failed to change the Table to CommandTable using RAS SDK
Reproducing the Issue
There are lots of reports designed with regular tables.
A custom RAS SDK application is developed to change the reports from regular table to CommandTable
        rd = new CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument();
        string rptPath = Server.MapPath("./axmr310_0_std.rpt");
        rd.Load(rptPath);
        DatabaseController databaseController = rd.ReportClientDocument.DatabaseController;
        ConnectionInfos connectionInfos = databaseController.GetConnectionInfos(null);
        ConnectionInfo oldConnectionInfo = connectionInfos[0];
        ConnectionInfo newConnectionInfo = CreateConnectionInfo();
        databaseController.ReplaceConnection(oldConnectionInfo, newConnectionInfo, null,CrDBOptionsEnum.crDBOptionUseDefault);
        ISCRTable oldTable = (ISCRTable)databaseController.Database.Tables[0];
        CommandTable newTable = new CommandTable();
        newTable.Alias = "Command";
        newTable.Name = "Command";
        newTable.QualifiedName = "Command";
        newTable.ConnectionInfo = newConnectionInfo;
        newTable.CommandText = "SELECT * FROM ds_report.axmr310_0939_12";
        databaseController.SetTableLocation(oldTable, newTable);
        CrystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = rd;
Most of reports can be successfully changed and viewed, however the error occurs with somes of the reports.
BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 3.*
Crystal Reports 2008
Cause
"Verify on First Refresh" option is not selected for those unworking reports.
Resolution
Workaround 1: Check "Verify on First Refresh" option for the report.
Open the report in Crystal Reports Designer
Go to menu File -> Report Options
check the Verify on First Refresh option for the report
Save the report
Workaround 2: Add "rd.VerifyDataBase()" in the code
        databaseController.SetTableLocation(oldTable, newTable);
        rd.VerifyDataBase();

Unknown Database Connector Error - when published

CA Forum: Deployment
Hi,
Im trying to get a Crystal Report to run when published to my BOXI Enterprise server. I get the following error when trying to run the report
CrystalReportViewer
Unable to retrieve Object.Error in File UseTable.rpt: Unknown Database Connector Error
The report runs on my PC using an oracle connection and I have also setup the orace driver and client on the Server and can connect to the database from the server. I'm using the same TNSNAMES entries on my client that are also on the server.
Could you please respond asap as once this simple issue is resolved I can get on with completing my Proof of Concept.

Hi Dominic. I had a similar problem in the past.When you go to publish your report try this.Select the Object.Select the Process Tab.Select the Database Tab.Select the radio button or option button "Use custom database logon information specified here"Inside the drop down list select Oracle.Enter your server name or tnsname "whatever.world"Enter your database name, this doesn't really matter you can enter anything will work here. (Whatever world - Production)Try that and let me know if that solves the problem.

Unknown Database Connector Error using Crystal Report XI with Windows 7

My current configuration is:
Windows XP Professional
Crystal Reports XI Professional
Oracle Client 10g
This is working great, however we are switching to Windows 7 Professional and I need to get this same configuration working on the new machines.
I have loaded Windows 7 Professional and Oracle Client 10g. Oracle makes the data connection without any problems. I loaded Crystal Reports XI Professional, but it will not connect to the Oracle database. It keeps giving me the Unknown Database Connector error. Can anyone assist me with this problem? This is the final software package that is holding up the project.
Thanks

Hello Uher,
Thanks for quickly response.
I have attached the details of my issue, the most confuse part is that I'm not sure is there any conflict btw software.
Appreciating your professional advise.

Unknown Database Connector Error

Hi,
I am using Crystal Reports 2008 to write reports against a CRS2008 repository. I have developed and deployed the reports succesfully to multiple servers but I am now receiving and error when trying to refresh the data in the report.
I can still connect to the repository and any changes to data foundation/business views are being picked up when I verify the database within the designer.
I am receiving the following error when trying to refresh the data in a report:
Crystal Reports for SAP Business One
Unknown Database Connector Error
OK
Crystal Reports for SAP Business One
Prompting failed with the following error message: ''.
Error source:   Error code: 0x80004005
OK
Any ideas?
I have seen a couple of hits on this issue but no obvious resolution. I have tried closing and re-opening Crystal. I am receiving this error on two different machines XP SP3 and Windows Server 2003 R2 SP2. I receive exactly the same error on both machines.
Regards,
Sean

Hi Don,
Thanks for the link to the correct forum.
Was a bit of a blonde moment on my behalf...I had re-imported the CRS Business Views, foundations etc but forgot that in doing so the Password against the Data Connection is lost. I re-applied the password to the data connection and all was well in my Crystal World.
Cheers,
Sean

Unknown Database Connector Error in CR XI R2 sp6

I'm getting an "Unknown Database Connector Error" when I try to Set Data Source Location. This is effecting all of my reports and is happening on multiple copies of CR XI. I'm trying to connect to MS SQL using an ODBC (RDO) connection. The reports were initially working fine connecting to the datasource and then something changed. The current connection is blank and when I try to create a new connection I get the above error.
I tried updating CR to the latest version (what a pain! kept running into the Missing CrystalReport.msi problem). Finally figured out how to fix that but the updates did not solve my connection problem.
I ran the SQL Connectivity Test app and here are the results:
SQLDriverConnect Successful
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Changed database context to 'I3_IC'.
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Changed language setting to us_english.
ODBC Version is : 03
SQL Driver Name is : SQLSRV32
SQL Driver Version is : 03.86.3959
SQL Driver Supported ODBC Version is : 03
SQL DBMS Name is : Microsoft SQL Server
SQL DBMS Version is : 10.00.2531
I am running Crystal on a Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition system. It's a developement and testing server. I also tried running CR on a Windows XP workstation connection to the same SQL server with the same results.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am totally stumped.

Hello,
mmmmmm.. From the driver name it's SQL Server 2000 you are using?
Have a look at your PATH statement to see if MS SQL is in there. It should look something like this:
Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600]
(C) Copyright 1985-2001 Microsoft Corp.
C:\>path
PATH=C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\80\Tools\Binn\;.....
It may be that your ODBCINI in the registry is corrupted so removing all and adding them back in may help. Use the ODBC Administrator to remove your DSN's, don't modify the registry.
Also create your DSN's using the System tab so all users and processes have access to them.
Thank you
Don

Unknown Database Connector Error using Oracle stored procedures

We are using an Oracle database for the first time with our Crystal Reports, and I am attempting to modify a report to use a new stored procedure. When I attempt to add either the new procedure, or to add a new copy of the existing procedure, I get an error message:
Unknown Database Connector Error
If I remove the existing procedure first (leaving no database objects at all), and then attempt to add back exactly the same stored procedure that I just removed, I get a different error message:
Database Connector Error: '42000:[Oracle][ODBC]Syntax error or access violation'
Neither of these errors is particularly helpful. The stored procedure in question works as is. I can run it in SQL Developer, and it also executes within the existing report if I run it. Unfortunately, it needs to be modified and given a new name, so I need to be able to add the new stored procedure to the report.
The operating system is Windows XP Professional version 2002 SP3. The Oracle version is 11g (11.2.0.2.0). Crystal reports version is Crystal Reports 2008 (12.3.0.601). The stored procedure returns a refcursor. The ODBC connection is created using the "Oracle in OraClient11g_home1" driver. When I test the connection, it tells me it was successful.
If it matters, the report is a Saba report.
Can anyone shed any light on what the problem is and how to fix it. If the solution is to upgrade the Windows version, that is under the control of our tech support and there is no information available as to when it will happen.

Yes - I had used the Set Datasource Location to point to the correct ODBC connection. I get the same results with an existing report as I do with a new blank report.
I have no idea where the service market place is. Honestly, I find the entire SAP site confusing. I found one reference to the PAM guide, but when I clicked on it, it insisted on a userid/password, and apparently the userid/password I have for this discussion group doesn't pass. I did find, eventually, a document called "Crystal Reports 2008 Service Pack 3 for Windows - Supported Platforms". When I read it, it tells me that it's compatible with Oracle 11g, generic ODBC, and Windows XP SP3, which is what we are using. I'm hoping that this document has equivalent information to the PAM guide.

The operating system returned error 21(failed to retrieve text for this error. Reason: 15105

Hello everybody,
I have a huge database over windows 2003 server and sql server 2008 r2, all of them with all update, no firewall, no antivirus, no any server feature/role installed.
Over the last 2 months I suddently start getting the following error:
The operating system returned error 21(failed to retrieve text for this error. Reason: 15105) to SQL Server during a read at offset 0x000000000da000 in file 'S:\TempDB\tempdb.mdf'. Additional
messages in the SQL Server error log and system event log may provide more detail. This is a severe system-level error condition that threatens database integrity and must be corrected immediately. Complete a full database consistency check (DBCC CHECKDB).
This error can be caused by many factors; for more information, see SQL Server Books Online.
I have the TEMP database split over 5 partitions on 5 different SAN disk. beggining size of each partition fix to 20 GB with autogrow 10%. Single Instance, around 15 DB.
The space on each hard disk does not reach 60%.
I got the above error when all temp files reach 27 GB approx.
I already ran a check disk, checkDB and everything says no error found, but I still got same error.
Does anyone know what could cause something like this?
note, when getting the above error, the only way to fix it, because I cannot do any select on any DB is to restart the service, so each temp file start again at 20 GB and everythign seems to be fine until reach the size again.

OS Error 665(failed to retrieve text for this error. Reason: 15105) while performing backup

Hi everyone,
I am performing a backup of sharepoint 2010 content database on my sql 2008 std edition which has file stream enabled and I experience the following problem.
When the backup reaches 40% (both when I do it via SSMS or via Maintenance plan) I get the following error:
BackupIoRequest::ReportIoError: write failure on backup device 'K:\SQL Backup\SP_Content2010.bak'. Operating system error 665(failed to retrieve text for this error. Reason: 15105).
Error: 18210, Severity: 16, State: 1.
I also tried backup the database on a different disk to make sure the problem is not there, but the same error appeared when the backup reached 40 %. I also executed DBCC CHECKDB against the database but it run successfully.
I could not find any other relevant source what the problem might be.
Any help will be very much appreciated.
Thanks

Hello,
Honestly it's going to come down to testing and root cause analysis. I don't have a single shot answer for you unfortunately.
I would start by doing the hotfix on that KB since you had OS Error 665 (again, you can run net helpmsg 665 to see the os error message). The SQL Server error 3041 (select * from sys.messages where message_id = 3041 and language_id = 1033) is "BACKUP failed
to complete the command %.*ls. Check the backup application log for detailed messages." Error 18210 is "%s: %s failure on backup device '%s'. Operating system error %s.". This points me back to the filesystem or storage.
Could you P->V the server during a maintenance window so you can test? The biggest thing here is that you don't have any valid backups so you're running the risk of losing data.
While not a method I use, you could stop SQL Server and filesystem copy the database and filestream share in the interim.

Could not open error log file ''. Operating system error = 5(failed to retrieve text for this error. Reason: 15105).

Hello
When I try to start the SQl server service i get the following error:
Event id 17058
Could not open error log file ''. Operating system error = 5(failed to retrieve text for this error. Reason: 15105).
As a test I have made sure the errorlog file ,and the entire drive it is, has everyone full control permissions, but to no avail. Does anyone have any ideas to resolve this issue?
Thank you

Hi,
Try running:
SELECT SERVERPROPERTY('ErrorLogFileName')
Then verify that the account being used to run the SQL Server service account has access to the path output above. If possible, you could try logging onto the server with the same account used to run SQL Server then navigate to the errorlog folder.

IR webclient: error when uncompressing data retrieved: *Data Error*!

A small (?) number of IR webclient 931 installations we notice the next error when processing: " error when uncompressing data retrieved: *Data Error*! " It does not seem to be user or permission/provision related.
Does anyone have an idea how to solve it. Reinstalling the IR webclient does not solve it.

Hi there, I got to the point where I found the cause, but now I still need to solve it. perhaps anyone can give me a hint.
931 bqy's are stored on server as zip files. (although they are renamed as *.1) On 832 they were stored as bqy files (although they were renamed to *.1 too).
The clients which had the error message tried to open their 931 documents with the 832 plugin. Which does not have the capebility to uncompress the .1 file. In that perspective is the error message very obvious.
We need to run both 832 intelligence plugin and the 931 webclient on the same client.
How can we force that the corrcet version is used for openeing the docs?

IRWebclient: error when uncompressing data retrieved: *Data Error*!

We experience a sporadic "error when uncompressing data retrieved: *Data Error*!" while processing a query with IR webclient 931. The problem occurs on several webclients but on other desktops it does not. The IHTML processes fine.
Any one an idea? reinstalling interactive webclient on the same pc does not help.
Completely reinstall the pc (os and other client software including interactive webclient) does help.
