Symptom
- Using VS2010 to run a report created in version 8. 5 of Crystal Reports, connecting to an xbase database
- Application throws the following error:
Failed to load database information
Details: The database connector crdb_p2bxbse.dll could not be loaded.
The correct version of the database client for this data
Environment
- Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2010 (CRVS2010)
- Visual Studio 2010
Reproducing the Issue
- Create a report in Crystal Reports 8.5 or earlier
- Connect to an xbase database using the P2BXBSE.dll driver
- Run the report in a VS2010 application using CRVS2010
Cause
- CRVS2010 is looking for the crdb_p2bxbse.dll which replaces p2bxbse.dll
- Crdb_p2bxbse.dll is not included as part of CRVS2010 install
- crdb_p2bxbse.dll is included with Crystal Reports 2011
Resolution
- Download the attached crdb_p2bxbse.dll
- Add the dll to C:\Program Files (x86)\SAP BusinessObjects\Crystal Reports for .NET Framework 4.0\Common\SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0\win32_x86
Note 1:
- The dll is not part of any CRVS2010 runtime redistributable (MSM or MSI)
- It will be the responsibility of the developer to ensure this dll is copied to the correct location on a runtime computer
Note 2:
- There is no 64 bit crdb_p2bxbse.dll
- As crdb_xbse.dll is considered legacy, no 64 bit build of this file is planned
