Crystal reports in client = broken

2008-07-31 Thread William Rentfrow
I can not get crystal reports to run in the client - this is quite
mysterious.
 
They used to work - this is AR 7.1 patch 001 with matching clients.  I
have re-installed the client now numerous times.
 
When I try to run a report in the application (IM 7.03) I get a whole
bunch of nothing - the screen flashes for a second and then nothing else
happens.  However, interestingly enough - my connection to the AR Server
is immediately broken.  I have to log in to the user tool again to get
it to work.
 
Any ideas?  I've checked all the standard config, etc (underscores and
what not) - and I'm getting no where.

Check in Tools\Options under the advance tab and see if the report
server is correctly listed there with the right TCP port and if ODBC Use
Underscores is check (if required).

William, if this is in the MT, what about a local version of the JRE - is
that different than the working clients?  I've seen Java issues cause blank
screens before.

Strangely the mid-tier is working and we have 6 servers using HTTPS
along with a load balancer, etc.
 
There are some time out issues in the MT but the WUT is really the
problem in this case.

Double-check that the AR System ODBC Data Source connection exists under
your data sources (usually found under Administrative Tools--Data
Sources (ODBC)).  We've had a lot of instances in Windows where this
connection is not built properly even with a reinstall.

All that is generally needed is the server name and Use Underscores
checked.  This is an individual system setting so may not be your
problem but is worth checking.

Make sure that the report server AND port are listed in the user's AR User 
Preference form record.  We had a similar issue and this fixed it.

This may very well be the answer - I had double checked this earlier and
the people with problems did not have a preference record.
