SERIOUS PROBLEM after Installation I have just installed CD on Windows 2003 Server where Crystal Reports 10, Crystal Enterprise 10 was running on a live system.
While I trialed the features of CD, I received a phone call from our Head Office stating that no user can log into Crystal to view/print reports.
Having investigated further, when the users try to login to the Crystal Viewer page, there is no login form displayed. Instead I get the error:
<------------------------------------------------------>
Microsoft JScript runtime error '0x800A01AD'
Automation server can't create object
line: 3271
<------------------------------------------------------>
Since this happened on the live system, the first thing I did was uninstall CD, rebooted the Server and the error was still there. I have tried looking for vairous solutions on Crystal's website, Google, Microsoft and so far, nothing has helped resolve the problem.
I am fairly desparate to fix this problem as people are running reports very regularly. Please help!

Problem Fixed Dear all,
Further to my previous post - I have managed to fix the problem. Let me trace back my steps (hopefully it will help someone, someday, somewhere)
My environment:
Windows 2003 Server
Crystal Reports 10
Crystal Enterprise 10
SQL Server 2000
After I uninstalled Crystal Delivery - The error message as per my prev post appeared because 2 key "dll" files were unregistered within Windows 2003 Server. This included:
WebReporting.dll and EnterpriseFramework.dll
<------------------------------------------------------------->
SOLUTION:
To re-register the dll files, open command prompt and type at the prompt:
regsvr32 "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Crystal Decisions\2.5\bin\WebReporting.dll
regsvr32 "C:\Program Files\Crystal Decisions\Enterprise 10\win32_x86\EnterpriseFramework.dll
<------------------------------------------------------------->
Now try and launch the web viewer or run a report and it should work. If it doesnt, then the problem could lie in another dll file being un-registered.
This seems to be a problem with the uninstall process of the CD and should be looked into and updated.
PS: If you are looking to trial this software - DONOT install it on a live production system like I did - as it will cause your users down time and alot of stress for you to fix it. Boy, im glad i found the problem within 3.5 hours. Create a test environment on a different physical machine first.
