Finding the "primary" table in a report in an ASP.Net viewer application

May 27, 2016, 3:50 am

Hi,

 

I have a web application that reads a list of existing Crystal Report files allowing the user to select the report they wish to run. I also allow the user to restrict the report data by appending a list of client Ids. To do this I check if the client table is present in the report and if so create a new selection criteria e.g. "AND {Client.id} in [ "1234", "2345", "3456"]" and append this to the selection criteria.

 

This all works nicely however I now wish to allow a list of a 2nd set of Ids which relate to a different table. I do the same check for this 2nd table and again if present allow the appending. I can identify the source of each list of ids so know whether I have client ids or not.

 

My problem is that there may be reports containing both tables and if I append the wrong list of ids the report will be incorrect.

 

Is there a way to identify the primary table in a report e.g. the first table in the SQL select statement ??

 

example SQL:

select * from client left outer join secondtable on secondtable.key = client.key

 

Client is the 'primary' table so allow the appending of a list of client ids but not ids from the 2nd table.

Database Login Failed and 'Value cannot be null. Parameter name: inputString'

Hi

 

I am hoping someone maybe able to give me some pointers on the following issue I am having:

 

Using Crystal Reports (in VS2010) I have created 2 reports that call stored procedures.  The first report calls a stored procedure that takes no parameters and is just a select, the second report calls a stored procedure that takes two date parameters.

 

When the reports are run within the VS201 environment they display and work exactly as I would expect in the Main Report Preview Tab.

 

Moving along to running these from the web application, I believe this is ASP based, unfortunately I have inherited this solution so dont have lots of information :-(

 

The following behaviour is observed:

 

For the report where parameters are passed:

     Input Box is displayed

     Parameter is entered

     Error is displayed 'Value cannot be null.  Parameter name: inputString'



For the report where no parameters are passed the following error(s) is displayed:

     Database logon Failed

     If I run this particular report again then the error is displayed 'Value cannot be null.  Parameter name: inputString'


I am no expert so any pointers are appreciated in how and where I should be looking to resolve this issue.


My understanding was that the database and all connection information was stored in the crystal report.  However it seems there is an extra layer of connection information that needs to be set somewhere?


web,config?

connection.config?

services.config?


Any help appreciated


Thanks

Inner Exception: CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.LogOnException: Logon failed.

Details: mscorlib : Could not find a part of the path 'E:\Development\Report\ConsoleApplication1\XML\Report.xml'.

Note:

It works in Development Environment.  Because the folder path "E:\Development\Report\ConsoleApplication1\XML\" is available in Development Environment.  But in Production Server, the path is not present.

Crystal Reports - Alignment

After upgrading the server from Crystal Reports 13 SP5 to  Crystal Reports 13 SP 16 ( i.e.: installed: CRRuntime_64bit_13_0_16.msi), the existing reports look fine except for the header text ( or date in header).

 

When running reports in our web application, the header text box is now showing Left Aligned instead of Centered.

 

Is there a web.config setting or something simple to fix this alignment?

How to change the default IIS Viewer install location for CRRuntime (64-bt) v13.0.3?

I have tried overriding the MSI kit values for INSTALLDIR, TARGETDIR, IISNET2VIEWERDIR, and IISNET4VIEWERDIR but they always use the Microsoft default folder of C:\inetpub\wwwroot. We do not have our web site at that file location.

 

Here is the most recent CMD line I have tried:


MSIEXEC /i "CRRuntime_64bit_13_0_3.msi" /log .\CRRuntime.log IISNET2VIEWERDIR="C:\inetpub\donordoc-test-healthcare\WWWRoot\aspnet_client\system_web\2_0_50727\" IISNET4VIEWERDIR="C:\inetpub\donordoc-test-healthcare\WWWRoot\aspnet_client\system_web\4_0_30319\"


From the log file, here are the PROPERTY values it used (note it ignored my values for the Viewers!):


Property(S): VersionNT = 601

Property(S): TARGETDIR = C:\

Property(S): DOTNETROOTDIR = C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\

Property(S): NETFRAMEWORKDIR = C:\Program Files (x86)\SAP BusinessObjects\

Property(S): AnsiSystemFolder = C:\Windows\SysWOW64\

Property(S): SystemFolder = C:\Windows\SysWOW64\

Property(S): WindowsFolder = C:\Windows\

Property(S): AppDataFolder = C:\Users\DysonR-S\AppData\Roaming\

Property(S): ProfilesFolder = C:\Windows\

Property(S): DesktopFolder = C:\Users\Public\Desktop\

Property(S): ProgramMenuFolder = C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\

Property(S): StartMenuFolder = C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\

Property(S): FontsFolder = C:\Windows\Fonts\

Property(S): TempFolder = C:\Users\DysonR-S\AppData\Local\Temp\

Property(S): CommonAppDataFolder = C:\ProgramData\

Property(S): INSTALLDIR = C:\Program Files (x86)\SAP BusinessObjects\

Property(S): IISNET2VIEWERDIR = C:\inetpub\wwwroot\aspnet_client\system_web\2_0_50727\

Property(S): IISNET4VIEWERDIR = C:\inetpub\wwwroot\aspnet_client\system_web\4_0_30319\

Property(S): NET2VIEWERDIR = C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\ASP.NETClientFiles\

Property(S): NET4VIEWERDIR = C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\ASP.NETClientFiles\

Property(S): ProgramFilesFolder = C:\Program Files (x86)\

Property(S): CommonFilesFolder = C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\

Property(S): SourceDir = C:\Patches\Install Kits\Crystal Reports\


I tried to attach the full log file, but it is too big.


Any suggestions on how to not use the "inetpub\wwwroot" folder.


Thanks,

Rick

After successfully importing web package into iis 8, when executing the report the crystal report viewer displays the report displays but with bad formatting of fields in  IE version 10.  The display fields are crystal report parameters fields positions on the report.  This same report looks fine when sending as a pdf in an email from the server.  And the report renders well on the development pc.  The Web application is installed on a windows 2012 Server.  The Crystal report viewers (v13) folder is installed within C:\inetpub\wwwroot\aspnet_client\crystalreportviewers13 On the Server, with My Web application having Crystal report viewers (v13) folder C:\inetpub\wwwroot\myappliocation\aspnet_client\.  Also tried to copy the Crystal report viewers folder into the web application root but received same format issue C:\inetpub\wwwroot\myappliocation\aspnet_client\crystalreportviewers13. Any ideas why the view is not rendering the report properly? see attachment for report image....

I have two projects that have embedded Crystal Reports. Department is getting new 64 bit computers for employees. Have tried everything to get the reports to run out of Visual Studio.net on a 64 bit computer. Every time it prompts the user for database login when they try and run report. These projects have been running fine for years on 32 bit computers. They are currently in both Visual Studio 2012 and 2015. Have researched all over the internet with no luck.

Hello,

 

I am using CRforVS_13_0_16 with VS 2012. I have written a simple Winform application that is to display a simple report (all it does is display the first and last name of people in the tblNames)

 

Attached is the error page I'm getting. I get the error in the IDE.For references, I have:

 

CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine

CrystalDecisions.ReportSource

CrystalDecisions.Shared

The code:

 

    Dim rpt As New rptNames
    Dim da As New SqlCeDataAdapter
    Dim dsNames As New DataSet("tblNames")
    Dim con As New SqlCeConnection
    Dim cmd As New SqlCeCommand

 

    con.ConnectionString = "Data Source=|DataDirectory|\NamesNumbers.sdf"
    con.Open()
    cmd.Connection = con
    cmd.CommandText = "select FirstName,LastName from tblNames"
    da.SelectCommand = cmd
    da.Fill(dsNames, "tblNames") 
    rpt.SetDataSource(dsNames)  ' This line generates the error
    CrystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = rpt

Linking a subreport using a data field causes "Missing Parameter Values"

June 6, 2016, 8:17 am

I have a number of reports that are being called from C#. Many of the reports have subreports. For subreports that appear at the end of the report, in the footer for example, I have no issues. I create parameters in the main report, and link them to the subreport, and it works fine.

 

I have now run into a situation where the subreport is part of a group footer. I need to link this subreport based on one of the fields in my dataset, RecKey. When I do this, a parameter called "?PM-ibinvoice.reckey" is created (ibInvoice is the name of the dataset). It looks a little different than the others, which I assume is because it is being used to filter the data in the subreport.

 

parameter.JPG

 

So far, so good. I believe this is the right way to do this. However, when I attempt to export the report, I get "Missing Parameter Values".

 

I've done enough experimenting to know for certain that the "PM" parameter is the one that is missing. Even if it were possible to set a parameter on a subreport, which it isn't, that wouldn't be correct. The subreport data needs to be filtered on the reckey.

 

This seems like a fairly common case, so I must just be missing something. Any ideas would be appreciated.

 

Thanks,

How to change Datasource Dynamically

Hi Guys,

From last 3 days I am stuck with one issue ,dont know whether Crystal reports works like this or I am missing something but ultimately I am struggling from last 3 days .here is the problem :

 

I have 1 common report which I want to run for 3 different instance of application (with 3 different DBs but same schema) .

I have designed this report on  DB_1 (SERVER1) so with 2nd (DB_2) and 3rd (DB_3) it doesn't work if i try upload this report on different server.


Why ? because when we design a report it will save that DB details  and will not run for other DB & Server.



Tried this code to set DB details dynamically but doesnt work :


        ReportDocument myReportDocument;

        myReportDocument = new ReportDocument();

        string reportPath = Server.MapPath("~Test.rpt");

 

 

        myReportDocument.Load(reportPath);

       

 

        myReportDocument.SetDatabaseLogon("Username1", "password1", "Server1", "database1");   ( Used this while designing report )

        

        //myReportDocument.SetDatabaseLogon("Username2", "password2", "Server2", "database2");   ( want to run on this but gives error  as Database login failed )

 

 

Please assist.

 

Thanks,

How to access Format event in .rpt files in .Net

Hi folks,

 

I'm converting over a number of reports from VB6 which used code in DSR files to conditionally format the report in various ways by examining data at runtime in the detail section's Format event. I found a reference to a similar capability in the Crystal Reports XI Technical Implementation Guide, but I've been unable to locate any examples showing how a similar capability to the VB6 DSR code execution for report events can be accessed in .Net.

 

Browsing the available events in the code view of the Report's.vb file only yields a FormatSection event, which seems not to be quite right (and for which I can find no documentation whatsoever).

 

How does one place code or otherwise act when a section's Format event occurs?
