We installed Java 8 on one of our computers and now Crystal Reports 2011 will not recognize the Salesforce.com connection. Has anyone else encountered this? All of the other office computers have Java Version 7.


Data Matrix barcodes

Is it possible to print data matrix barcodes in crystal reports?

I am using Crystal Reports 2013 with SP3 and Salesforce. I am receiving the following errors.

Failed to retrieve data from the database.  Details: HY000:[Simba][DSI] (40390) Internal error - SwapWriteError.  [Database Vendor Code: 40390].  I believe it is a data problem with a table(s) coming from Salesforce and how CR is handling this data.  I see knowledge article 1976422, which seems similar to my problem.  One problem is I can't seem to find out where to get patch 1 for SP3, as I would like to try that fix first.  I can't find a number for support, so I am hoping someone from the support team reaches out to me.  This has been an ongoing problem since we switched to Salesforce months ago and am about to give up using Crystal Reports.  I am using the out of the box CR Salesforce ODBC connection.

ODBC for CR VS2010 (32 bit runtime 13.0.9) on Windows 2012

$

Hi all,

 

I've setup an application that was developed using cr vs2010, on the Windows 2012 Server I've installed the 32bit 13..09 runtime.

 

It's a completely fresh Windows 2012 machine, SQL Server is not installed, neither is the SQL Native 10 Client.

 

The DB Server has SQL Server 2008 R2.

 

Now the question is about the ODBC driver...

 

When I setup the 32 bit ODBC connection, in the section where you select the driver there is an entry named "SQL Server" with the version number 6.03.9600.16384.

 

I've done some primitive testing our reports using this driver instead of the older 10 native client ones, some reports have parameters, some have functions some don't... all seem to work fine.

 

Is this ok to continue with or should I still install and use the native 10 client drivers on a Windows 2012 machine?

Crystal Reports Migration from Windows 2003 (IIS6) to 2008R2 (IIS7)

Hello All,

 

I'm quite new to Crystal Reports, but I'm hopeful that someone will be able to assist. Surely my challenge will be an easy one to overcome!
Keeping in mind, I am not a programmer or developer!

 

We have a Windows 2003 server (IIS6) running one of our report websites. When I joined the company, there was absolutely zero documentation (of course!) related to this site.

 

I'm attempting to move this site to Windows 2008R2 server (IIS7). I simply copied the web files over, and created a new site/application pool within IIS7 on the new server. This is the error I receive when browsing to the site:

 

<add verb="GET" path="Crystal CrystalImageHandler.aspx" type="CrystalDecisions.Web.CrystalImageHandler, CrystalDecisions.Web, Version=10.2.3600.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=692fbea5521e1304" />

 

Now, I see the referenced files above in the Windows\assembly directory of the W2003 server.

 

What do I need to get this site working on the W2008 R2 server?

 

Thanks,

 

Phil

Cannot install connector for MySQL

Trying to add an ODBC data source in Windows 7 so that I can connect

Crystal Reports to my MySQL databases.

 

Downloaded and ran the connector from

http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/odbc/5.1.html

 

Went to Administrative Tools --> Data Sources (ODBC).

 

"Microsoft ODBC for Oracle" is listed in the drivers, but when I try

to add it as a User data source I get "The setup routines for the

Microsoft ODBC for Oracle ODBC driver could not be found. Please

reinstall the driver." and "component not found in Registry."

 

Any idea what I am doing wrong?

Crystal Command Issues

$
0
0

Hello everyone,

 

I'm currently having issues with returning columns from a stored procedure to a command in Crystal Reports 2008. Is there a limit on how many columns a command can bring back from a data source?

 

If so, does Crystal keep a local cache within the report of command structures so that, when it can't grab all the new columns in the modified data source, it relies on the previous command structure located in the report's cache? This is what appears to be happening; even when I completely remove and add the command in again to this report.

 

Any answers on this peculiar issue would be quite helpful! I've never come across this yet and I've done a few commands feeding off complex stored procedures.

 

Thanks

When I create a report with Crystal Report 2013, using any Universe (.unv) as a datasource, it only returns 48 records.  I can create the exact same report in Crystal  Reports 2008, against the exact same universe and get all 8,339 records. Any thoughts?

After upgrading from CR 2010 naar 2013 the program freezes all the time when trying to open the tab connections/kopppelingen' under 'database-expert'. The rest works fine, but I cannot make reports or manage connections of more than one table.

The ODBC-connects with SQL-Server 2012 (SQL Server Native Client 10.0).

 

I tried:

- logging in as administrator and do the same thing to exclude read/write permissions.

- create a new connection using SQL Server Native Client

- connecting via OLE DB using SQL Server Native Client 10.0 ánd 11.0

 

Who can help me? Thanks!

Error in Java in replaceConnection when report contains sql expression fields

$

0

We are using the crystal java runtime in order to print reports. We connect to an oracle DB. As we want to support different installations, we need to change the schema name (and other connection details) using databaseController.replaceConnection() and databaseController.setTableLocation(). This works perfectly fine for most reports.

 

Unfortunately, when the report contains sql expression fields, when calling databaseController.replaceConnection() we get the following error. Is there any way to work around this?

 

(Note: The german error message "Fehler beim Parsen des Ausdrucks." means "Error when parsing expression").

Crystal 2013 with UNV Asking for Password

$
0
0

My client has a number of Crystal 2013 reports that are based on .unv universes that connect to Oracle databases.  All of the users have the 32-bit Oracle client and an appropriate TNSNames.ora file on their workstations.  The reports can be viewed and scheduled with no problems in BI 4.1 - either SP1 or SP4.  However, when a user opens one of these reports from the server in Crystal 2013 and tries to refresh it, it asks for the database password.  Shouldn't this be automatically picking up the password from the universe connection on the BI Platform?

 

Thanks!

Salesforce Connection/Record Count

$

Hi,

 

I am having an issue connecting to sf.com correctly. I am able to pull a few Tables and my count is correct,but one table in particular is not pulling the exact number of records (activities) as shown on the sf.com report screen. I was wondering if others were experiencing this issue. It's about 1000  records that are missing and when i run a compare report, there isn't anything specific about them that would  give me a reason why they were left off. I have even created a stripped down report of just this table and the count is still wrong. Any idea what is causing this? I contacted Sf.com and they said it was a Crystal reports issue since I was able to download the full record count using their tools.

 

I am running CR 2011 SP9 installed.  Previously, has SP4 installed.


Can anyone point me in the right direction for creating an ODBC file?

$

I have made several Crystal Reports based off of preexisting odbc files. I now need to create a new excel sheet, that eventually will have a crystal reports based off of it. Unfortunately I do not know how to go about creating an excel sheet that will be used as an odbc or how the sheet should be setup to make my tables.

 

Basically what I'm looking for is an example of an excel sheet that was used in a crystal report and how I can create an ODBC off of it.

 

I don't know if this is the right place but if anyone could point me in the right direction, I'd really appreciate it.

 

Thanks

A problem with creating a new Java-Bean connectivity

$
0
0

Hello,

 

I've been trying to use my own java-beans inside my Crystal Report designer. So what I want to do is use my own custom java-beans as a data source within the Crystal Report designer.

 

The problem that I'm running into is that my java-bean classes are not shown in the selection box when I go to database-expert>new connection>Java-Beans-connectivity. I've tried changing the CRConfig.xml in the 'C:\Program Files (x86)\SAP BusinessObjects\SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0\java' directory and have also tried to edit the registry as mentioned here : http://resources.businessobjects.com/support/communitycs/TechnicalPapers/cr9_java_bean_datasource.pdf

 

I've also followed this tutorial :

http://resources.businessobjects.com/support/communitycs/TechnicalPapers/crxi_java_bean_connectivity.pdf

But it still doesn't work

 

What I have done:
1. create a java bean just like in the tutorials and compiled it and placed it in C:\javabean.
2. editted the CRConfig.xml and added : <JavaBeansClassPath>C:\javabean</JavaBeansClassPath> to it.

 

So the problem is that I cannot see the bean that I created inside the selection box when I go to database-expert>new connection>Java-Beans-connectivity. (it could also be possible that my bean is incorrect, but I used the one from the tutorial.)

 

I also think that it might have have to do with the fact that I don't really have a database for the beans (so I just create the class and then I want to use the .class file as a bean data source inside crystal reports).

 

And I'm using the 'SAP Crystal Reports 2013' trial version.

 

So does anyone know what could be causing the problem?

Crystal Reports 2013 Connect to Salesforce data source, HY000 Invalid_Login error

I'm using Crystal Reports 2013 and Salesforce as my data source and receive an error message when trying to connect:

Login failed

HY000:INVALID_LOGIN:Invalid username, password, security token; or user locked out. [Database Vendor Code: 58]

 

I am connecting to a sandbox, test.salesforce.com, and I have added the IP address of the server where Crystal Reports 2013 is installed to the sandbox trusted sites.  I have tried using just the password and password+token in the login credential and receive the error either way.

I use the same credentials to successfully login to Data Loader and to Crystal Reports 2008.


When I try to create a new Crystal Reports 2013 report and select the data source as Salesforce and use the same credentials I receive the same error.

I selected, SAP Salesforce ODBC Driver,  in the 32-bit ODBC Data Source Administrator tool as the System DSN, and still receive the same error when trying to connect.
