Amending Crystal Report

Good afternoon the CR/BOE Experts;

Please help

I was unable to connect to BOE from either Crystal Reports 2016, or Crystal Reports XI (11).

At the point where I attempt to log on to the Business Objects Enterprise and error occurs.

We are using Crystal Reports 2016 SP05 and SAP SBOP Platform Server 4.2 SP03

Can someone out there please advise, if there is any way of amending / uploading existing Crystal reports, using the current software we have ?

Or, would it be necessary to get both Crystal Reports and Server software on the same versions?

Best Regards

Ade

With SP4 of the BI Platform, the security libraries were all replaced with newer versions. This means that the same libraries were upgraded in Crystal 2016 SP4 as well. So, in order to connect, you'll need to either downgrade Crystal to 2016 SP3 or upgrade BOBJ to 4.2 SP5.

Crystal XI has been out of support for about 10 years, so it won't ever be upgraded to use the new security libraries.
