My current version of Crystal is version 11.5.12.1838 and I installed Crystal Reports Pack for Salesforce.com. When I try to create to connect to Salesforce.com in Crystal I do not see the Saleforce.com database connection as described in the attached PDF instructions. What did I do wrong?

Crystal Reports and salesforce integration question

I have a question about Crystal Reports connectivity to salesforce.  We are running Crystal Reports version 14.0.4.738 RTM.  When you create a new report and use the Database Expert, you can select www.salesforce.com as the data source.  I would like to know if the built-in connection to salesforce is secure.  Is our data secure in transit from salesforce to Crystal?  Is my password passed in clear text?  That kind of thing...

 

 

 

 

Thanks!

New to sap, play with .rpt reports

Hi,

 

I have downloaded a trial crystal report 2013 and I would like to play with some reports are running on our system but in order to don't destroy them, I want to know the next points:

 

  • How identify the version of the actual file report file .rpt or the crystal report version was made, i would like to keep the original version all the time or during the test process.
  • some reports are working in our system that i will make a backup for them, the question is if something is wrong with the test report, the restoration to the original state should be replace the test file for the backup file into the original folder? do we need to stop the server first? what important considerations we need take before replace a file or after replacing a file.
  • For the viewer of reports, do we need an additional software? we have one viewer for the actual reports but I would like to have an additional viewer for the test process, Do we?.

 

if you need more info about the actual system we have please let me know.

 

I think for the moment answering the last questions i will be able to select the right version and create a backup before testing reports.

 

I will appreciate a response for it

connectivity problem with crystal reports.

Hi I am new to crystal reports. I've a connectivity problem with my oracle dashboard server. The problem is " I open crystal reports->database expert->create new connection->oracle server. In that I've given the TNS name, Username and password". It is trying to connect more than 7 hours. Never connected and never failed and no error. But the size of the DB is huge, really huge. I dont have the privilege to see the size of the DB. Do we have to set up any configuration or is there any other option to achieve calling a package with ref cursor in crystal reports. Please help.

 

 

 

Thanks & Regards,

 

Veeraraghavan M.

With Crystal 13, can you report off of *.accdb files?

I don't know if this is an ODBC issue or a Crystal issue, but I use Crystal 12 and am unable to see tables in *.accdb files.  Does Crystal 13 connect OK?

Hello! We are using Crystal Reports for developing reports based on oracle database. Now we are thinking to view reports in SAP Enterprice Portal. Is it possible to create iviews for this combination.

Please take note - our reprots are developing outside SAP. We are using only Oracle database via ODBC interface.

Thank you!


Connection to a SQL DB

Good Afternoon,

 

First time poster so bear with me - I have a, I'm sure basic query, but for love nor money I can not find the solution. Apologies in advance if this has been raised somewhere else:

 

I have Crystal Reports 13 running as a desktop application and a datasource in the form of a SQL Server DB in a different environment.

 

My questions are:

  • As I need to request a firewall change, what port number does Crystal use to query a DB? Is this the standard 1433?
  • On the DB I am querying, what privileges do I need? DBO, read & write? Just Read?
  • I have watched several videos with the connections, however some indicate the connection should be through the ODBC Data Source Systems DSN first, whilst others point to the connection wizard in Crystal first.

 

Any information would be great!

 

Many Thanks,

 

James

Database Connector Error

Hello,

 

Recently I have updated ODBC drivers for my Unidata to connect to my server that has my database.  From this experience it has been a headache.  I had this software working just fine and the old drivers I don't have any more.  So, I have recently restore my computer to a fresh copy of Windows 7 x64.  And I have set up my ODBC 32bit drivers to connect to my server.  I have test the connection and passed.  There is an utility for the Unidata to see if you connection work, I submitted a query and it shows my results.  When I run Crystal Reports, go to Database expert and set up ODBC connection I can see my tables names (good sign I thought) but when I bring my table names to Selected Tables it gives me this error message:

 

Database Connector Error: 'S1000:[Rocket U2][U2ODBC][1801668]Error ID: 66 Severity: ERROR Facility: FPSRVERR - UD/ODBC program UCI::SQLColumns falied to execute sql statement: [S1000][U2][SQL Client][UNIDATA]Column_Default is not a field name[Database Vendor Code: 47075904]'

I have Crystal XI SP2 installed.  When I create a new report using stored procedure that contains a parameter, I get an error when I submit the parameters prompting page.  The error occurs on the following statement in the prompting1.htm script:

 

windows.external.submit(form)

 

SAP says they know nothing of the error.  Does anyone else?  I do find a couple of links on the web, but nothing with a fix.

 

Any help is appreciated.

Hello:

 

Crystal Reports 2013. Using Informix JDBC drive ifxjdbc.jar. Report was working before

 

Situation:

 

1. CRConfig.xml was edited so following was in Classpath:

 

....;C:\Program Files (x86)\SAP BusinessObjects\\SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0\java/lib/ifxjdbc.jar;${CLASSPATH}

 

and connection info edited:

 

<JDBCURL>jdbc:informix-sqli://xxx.yyy.local:50001/xxx:informixserver=xxx_ol</JDBCURL>

  <JDBCClassName>com.informix.jdbc.IfxDriver</JDBCClassName>

  <JDBCUserName>billy</JDBCUserName>

 

2. ifxjdbc.jar placed in the above directory listed in (1).

 

Get the JDBC driver not found error. Why do I get this error? I entered the path above like in the other entries--I also tried putting the ifxjdbc.jar in a simple directory like c:\myfolder\ifxjdbc.jar , and entering it just like that in the CLASSPATH. No joy.

 

Any ideas what the problem is?

 

Thanks!

Hi,

 

Currently we use the ODBC xml driver to access data with CR v. 10.5;  Migrating to CR13, is there and end of life for the use of this specific 4.2 driver ? If so, which current version of a ODBC xml driver is to be used with CR 13 .net runtime and where can it be downloaded ?

Thanks

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?

I have been searching for this xtreme.mdb for couple hours now. (Crystal Reports 2011) Are you kidding me???

 

This is all I got from the user guide: xtreme.mdb is located on the SAP Business ObjectsSupport web site.

 

It's very frustrating that it doesn't come with the download. Does anybody know where this thing is located?

Crystal Reports 2011 cannot connect to Salesforce - Unexpected Error

$

I am unable to connect to salesforce from Cystal Reports 2011. I get a dialogue saying

 

Failed to Open the connection

Details:Unexpected Error

 

 

-I have increased the JVMMaxHeap in CRCONFIG.XML to 512000000

-I have appended the security token to the password

-I am not going through a proxy server

 

I am able to login successfully to the salesforce account using Crystal Reports 2008.

 

In order to narrow the issue down and exclude any issues related to custom objects on our corporate acount I created a clean , out of the box dev account on salesforce. Again I can connect to it with 2008 but not 2011 on whcih I get the same error

 

I can verify that a login succesfully occured in salesforce, the login in history shows the connections are being made.

 

 

In order to reproduce simply create a salesforce dev account, install CR 2011 SP02 and attempt to create a database connection to the salesforce account

 

 

Crystal Reports Log is as follows

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!
