The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

The Grade of the Solution
The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
The Number of Author and Expert Comments
The Number of Experts Contributing
The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Crystal Reports - Unknown Database Connection Error

Asked by WaldaInc in Microsoft Visual Interdev, Web Development Software

Hello.

I have an application that I've built for a client. He has deployed this app (which uses a SQL Server database) to literally hundres of clients. Some have minor installl issues that are always worked out.
The app uses Crystal Reports.

For one of the recent installs, this error is displayed whenever we try to print a report

Unknown Database Connection Error
(it then shows a path to Docuement and Settings and a temp.rpt file)

Now, this app works everywhere and I mean everywhere else. It's this one install that doesn't work. That leads me to believe a database setting (the dba is very hard to work with).

Has anyone ever seen this error before? Google wasn't much help, didn't really lead me down a path that would explain anything.

Thanks in advance
