Connection error on Win7 32-bit with CR 2011

[Former Member]

We're using CR 14.0.4.738 and are having connectivity problems on Win7 32-bit machines. We have 3 users who are experiencing the same issue. They are all connecting to SQL Server 2012 databases. When they run reports, they receive the following error message:

Any ideas as to what is causing this?

Hi Carl,

The driver being used on these users' machines is Not a recommended one.

They should be using the SQL Server Native Client 10.0 or 11.0 driver.

Also, database vendor codes are usually passed on by the driver so this could also be a database issue.

Hi Carl,

Possible cause is installing MS SQL Server 2012 on your local machine... this updated my Native SQL Driver to "11.0" and then trying any other Native Drivers (ie: "10.0" and previous) wouldn't work.

Please make ODBC Connection using the SQL Server Native Client 10.0 or 11.0 driver.

Thanks,

DJ
