Trial version logon failed.

[Former Member]

Dear All,

I have down loaded the trail version of Crystal report 10 days back, was using the same till yesterday. Now when I try to create a report I get a message "LOGON FAILED", on my machine. But using the same product key if I logon in another machine it works.

What could be the reason for the same?

Any Answer??

Hi K Sengupto

The particular error message indicates that you are not able to connect to the database.

- When exactly you are facing this error message?

- Which connection type are you using?ODBC,OLEDB or native connection?

- If you are using DSN then try to create a new DSN and then connect to the database.

Let me know the updates so that we can procced further with this issue.

Regards

Asha.

Hey Have you tried to create a sample report by using the default database, i.e. Extreme sample database.

If you were sucessfull to create that then try to create a new DSN.

Else you have no problem with crystal sample report then create new DSN connection and try to create a report, still if you are facing any problem then it is suggested to re-install the crystal version again because any of your Dll files might be corrupted.

Dear Navin,

I feel what you have suggested is the right method of solving this issue, moreover my Basis team also suggested the same.

Waiting for them to do the same.

Hi Kritarthajeet,

There may be a problem with the DSN. Try creating a new DSN and then connect to the database.

Hope this helps you!
