We are using Crystal Reports and SAP BusinessObjects EDGE server for reporting.
At the moment there seems to be about 200 Dynamic Cascading Prompts on the Repository. I found info on how to edit these with Business View Manager but apparently it isn't included in the EDGE-version of BusinessObjects server. Is there any way to edit these prompts from somewhere else?
It seems I was wrong about Business View Manager missing. Followed the advice from this thread and found it in:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86\CrystalBVM.exe

i have created a Report using Birt Eclipse BI tools. But i am trying to display this report on local server or online . so every one can see this by browser.
may it possible to run in browser in each machine of local.?
please report expert have a look.
thanks
If you need to provide webbased access to the reports, you can have a look at the Enterprise Reporting Server. The project is up on GitHub at https://www.github.com/stephanfeb/ers and you can download a prebuilt .war from http://www.computonium.com

I'm using crystal reports for creating my reports. I'm using Visual Studio 2012. I use VS2010 to create the reports then I add them to the solution in VS2012. The problem is that I'm getting an exception bobj undefined when I run the report under VS2012. Is is related to the fact that the project is running under VS2012 or is it caused by another thing? Thanks :)
SAP Crystal Reports Developer version for Microsoft Visual Studio is finally avalable, so you can create them in vs 2012.

This is not my experience, and I had found this answer while I search for Crystal report integration basics with VS 2012.

Good Luck & Have a nice day
No, it's not VS2012 problem.
Crystal reports runtime is installed but it's files are not reached by browser.
You installed your application in a website different from Default Website.. did you?
Look at the Solution at the end of this post.
Analyze the problem
It's possible to analyze the problem, and find a 403 (Forbidden) error
using client tools (debug window of browser)
GET http://someServer:20080/aspnet_client/system_web/4_0_30319/crystalreportviewers13/js/crviewer/crv.js 403 (Forbidden)
GET http://someServer:20080/aspnet_client/system_web/4_0_30319/crystalreportviewers13/js/crviewer/images/style.css 403 (Forbidden)
or server tool (IIS log , on WIN2003 is placed in %SYSTEMROOT%\System32\LogFiles\W3SVC###\).

Cause the problem
In both cases i found that crv.js and style.css some files were not served;
these files are placed by CR installer in wwwroot\aspnet_client folder, but for some reasons they cannot be reached;
In my case the reason is that i create a different website (port 20080) and aspnet_client folder is not placed inside that website
I can see that you use different versions of software and different configurations, but i think you have the same problem.
Solution
The solution is to work on IIS this way:
Copy aspnet_client folder from c:\inetpub\wwwroot folder to the new website root folder.
or (this one is better)
Create a virtual directory called aspnet_client that points to c:\inetpub\wwwroot inside the new website
I have a windows 2008 application server that hosts a web application built in classic asp. i have a crystal report server which is a windows 2008 server. both are on the same network.
I want to create pdf file from rpt file in the application server. Is there a way to do this without installing crystal reports on the application server?
-Vivek
This requires a bit more thinking but in theory you could do something like this:
Classic ASP is not able to work with Crystal Reports (as far as I know)
However, your IIS7 is able to handle both ASP.NET and Classic ASP
You could develop a service in .NET that does the conversion for you
This could work on your application server utilizinig the Crystal redistributable runtime libraries
Like I said this is just a theory. Give it some thought and if you run into any trouble let me know...
I don't know nothing about Crystal Reports Server, but surely there a way to tell the server to process a file and generate a PDF. You can then pick up the file from the other server.
you can use crystal reports from classic asp but you have to use the crystal reports dlls on your application server (where asp is executed)
dim oApp : set oApp = Server.CreateObject("CrystalRuntime.Application.10")
and so on...
I am running shared hosting server for asp.net application. I want to support for crystal report on my server. So that users web application use crystal report.
Can any one know what is the procedure to support crystal report on the server.
Thanks
The report-viewer control (as of XIR2) is COM dependent. Your hosting company will need to support COM and be willing to run the installation package to ensure that the correct registry entries are created. I'm sure that there are licensing issues for this, not to mention the extra burden added to IIS for report processing. You may want to consider BusinessObjects Enterprise.
I created a ASP.NET3.5 website having a crystalreportviewer in it, it works fine if I run through visual studio 2008 or on my own machine. But when i deployed project on web server, it started giving me error.
Firstly it was giving error on first page that CrystalDecision.web assembly can't be found, then I installed Crytal Runtime 2008 on my web server. After installation application seems like ok, but when I opened page with CrystalReportViewer it gave me different error, as following:
The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assembly reference. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131040)
Any idea about it??
You probably have slightly different versions of the crystal assemblies on the server and your development machine. Compare the version numbers in c:\windows\assembly on both and see if there is a difference. If there is, either update the server or change the version numbers for the assemblies in web.config.
Also, The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assembly reference
After spending almost 2hrs I finally found the fix.
Uninstall the Crystal Reports run time from web server.
Check if web server still have \program files\Business object folder, if still exist then delete it. Ensure other applications are not dependent on it.
Give Read and Write access permissions to ASPNET user on \windows\Temp folder
Install Crystal Report run time now.
Restart IIS
Following these steps should fix the crystal report viewer problem.
But then one more problem arises, crystal report viewer doesnt show the icons, the reason is crystal report viewer looks for aspnet_client\system_web\2_0_50727 folder in root folder of the website. In my case I have multiple websites on my server including .NET 1.1, 2.0 and ASP, so I have wwwrootASP2.0 folder for this website. But by default web server created aspnet_client\system_web\2_0_50727 folder under default website (wwwroot). So, the fix is, just copy that aspnet_client\system_web\2_0_50727 folder into your website's root directory. Bingo !!!!!! It works fine now.
I hope it will help,
Cheers.
I just wanted to add that an easier way seems to be creating a virtual directory under you web application called aspnet_client that points to C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\aspnet_client.
This also makes the images on the crystal report viewer show up. It was tested with visual studio 2008 crystal basic on IIS running on server 2003.
I figured this out after reading http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/vscrystalreports/thread/e2dc93b3-e594-4ae6-ba92-9440ccc7f6be.
