Crystal Enterprise 8

Bruce,

We successfully implemented CE8 last month during our upgrade to
Vantage 6.0 We were using the old Crystal Web Server before hand, so
it was more of an upgrade than a fresh implemenation for us, so you
might be running into something I didn't. From your statement, I'm
not sure where you are getting stuck, but I can offer a suggestion.
Crystal Enterprise creates several services on the server. One of
them, the Crystal Page Sever, needs to have Domain Admin logon
rights. Check to see if you've done that, it might be your problem.
Otherwise, try to describe the situation in a little more detail and
I might think of something else.

Bruce,

Your configuration is basically what I have running and it is working just
fine. I believe you need to use the Crystal Configuration Manager under
Crystal Enterprise program group to change the login for several of the
services. I checked my config and here is how mine is setup:

You should see eight services listed in CCM. You need to change the "Log on
As" settings for Crystal APS, Crystal Page Server, and Crystal Job Server
from the default of "localsystem" to an actual domain account. I use a
domain account that I setup as a domain admin for this purpose. Before you
can change the configuration, you will need to stop each service you want to
modify in the CCM and then restart after the change. You probably should go
ahead and reboot the server when you are done, too.

Hi,

I received Crystal Enterprise 8 along with Crystal reports. As I understand
it, I can publish reports using this. I've been trying to install it on a
WinNT4 IIS server but I keep getting stuck, "Unable to log on to APS".

Anybody out there using Crystal Enterprise 8 to share reports?

Thanks,
Bruce Ordway
