Need help downloading Crystal Reports 2008 SP6 redistributable

[Former Member]

I need the Crystal Reports 2008 SP6 redistributable (CRRuntime_12_6_mlb.msi).  According to this page:

http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-27917

"At this time (May 2013) Service Pack 5 and Service Pack 6 for SAP Crystal Reports 2008 are only available on the SAP Market Service Place. Both SPs should be available soon on SCN via a new SAP Download Portal."

I contacted SAP support because I do not have a SAP Market Service Place account / login and when I tried to register it wants a valid customer ID, which I do not have. I was given this link:

http://wiki.scn.sap.com/wiki/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=56787567

Which has SP5 on it but not SP6. The link to the file on that page is:

https://www.sdn.sap.com/downloads/BusinessObjects/cr2008_sp5_redist.zip

And I tried changing it to:

https://www.sdn.sap.com/downloads/BusinessObjects/cr2008_sp6_redist.zip

But both of those links ask me for a user name and password and my SAP Community Network credentials do not work.

How can I download the files I need?

Hello & Thank You,

I'm using crystal reports since last century    You are the only person I know especially with SAP that support it from the heart.

Something wrong with the merge module (sp6) archive. I cannot open it. I tried four times with different pc's.

with my best wishes to you.

Hi Mr Uher.

I'm sorry same again.

" Cannot open file: it does not appear to be valid archive"

[former_member183750]

Yup. The original was re-opened:

ADAPT01705270

Oh., BTW. Turns out my estimate for SP 8 was optimistic as the SP is now targeted for end of February and may slip to end of March...

Hm.  Does that mean SP 7 has been released?
