PROBLEMS WITH COM (CRYSTAL REPORT 11 Y PHP 5)

[ysabelafuentes]

 

i'm having trouble getting started Crystal Reports XI with PHP 5 but i'm having trouble getting started.

 

Here's some code i used:

 

        $my_report = "C:\\Report3.rpt"; //rpt source file
        //-Create new COM object-depends on your Crystal Report version

        //This is line 79
        $ObjectFactory= new COM("CrystalReports11.ObjectFactory.1") or die ("Error on load"); // call COM port

        $crapp = $ObjectFactory->CreateObject("CrystalRuntime.Application.11.0.0.89327"); // create an instance for Crystal
        $creport = $crapp->OpenReport($my_report); // call rpt report

 

The error:

Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'com_exception' with message 'Source: Unknown
Description: Unknown' in C:\wamp\www\sivesst\system\application\controllers\pruebareportepdf.php on line 79

 

Does anybody know what module i'm missing or if i'm doing something wrong in php? I nedd some library?

Configurate pnp.ini? Configurate Crystal report?

I've never worked with COM before.

 

please help with the conection (step by step)!

Installation

 

There is no installation needed to use these functions; they are part of the PHP core.

 

The Windows version of PHP has built-in support for this extension. You do not need to load any additional extensions in order to use these functions.

 

You are responsible for installing support for the various COM objects that you intend to use (such as MS Word); we don't and can't bundle all of those with PHP.

then, it may be the version that i`m install about crystal report that is not supported!. Some people says in other forums that to install the server ( will be crystal report server XI)?
