Crystal Report Prompted Database Login

Everything run well on Dev Machine.
Testing on client prompted Database Login
Tried entering the required information does not work, kept saying Login failed no matter what.

Tried on vb.net

objReport.SetDatabaseLogon("user", "pass")

still isn't going thru

on the rpt file i used connectionstring:

DRIVER={MySQL ODBC 5.1 Driver};DATABASE=mydb;OPTION=3;SERVER=myServer;UID=myUser;PWD=myPassword

Mike McCracken

Does the test have the same database and same connection string?

Test was done using same Database, user, pass, server

vb.net used:

With crConnectionInfo
.ServerName = "server"
.DatabaseName = "db1"
.UserID = "client"
.Password = "pass"
End With

Crystal Report Document uses:
DRIVER={MySQL ODBC 5.1 Driver};DATABASE=mydb;OPTION=3;SERVER=myServer;UID=myUser;PWD=myPassword

Are you changing the database as it appears since the last line has different values from the connection info.

this is my script that i tried

it works on Dev machine and not on the client

Dim CRViewer As New FormCrystalViewer
        Dim CRViewer As New FormCrystalViewer
        Dim objReport As New ReportDocument
 
        'Load Crystal Report File
        objReport.Load(My.Settings.CR_PATH & "CRLateOrders.rpt")
 
        Dim crTableLogonInfos As New TableLogOnInfos
        Dim crTableLogonInfo As New TableLogOnInfo
        Dim crConnectionInfo As New ConnectionInfo
        Dim crTables As Tables
        Dim crTable As Table
 
        With crConnectionInfo
            '.ServerName = "server"
            '.DatabaseName = "db"
            .UserID = "client"
            .Password = "pw"
        End With
 
        crTables = objReport.Database.Tables
 
        For Each crTable In crTables
            crTableLogonInfo = crTable.LogOnInfo
            crTableLogonInfo.ConnectionInfo = crConnectionInfo
            crTable.ApplyLogOnInfo(crTableLogonInfo)
        Next
 
       CRViewer.CRViewer.ReportSource = objReport
       CRViewer.Show()
