ERROR MESSAGE:
Test connection failed because of an error in initializing provider. Unrecognized database format '\nrpi.local\commonData.accdb'
I set up my database and SSIS and everything was working great. However my database was growing and when it got near 100MB i decided to "compress it" The minute I did that my SSIS started to fail 100% of the time and I get the message above.
I have tried using a JET connection, but no luck. I am currently using an ACE OLEDB 12.0
I have tried running SSIS in 32-bit mode, but no luck.
If i pull a backup of the DB before it was compressed everything works again.
Basic Info: Access 2007, Visual Studio 2008 SP1
Any Thoughts?
Download and install the data connectivity componets from Microsoft.
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=23734
Then change your provider on the source connection to "Native Oledb\Microsoft Office 12 Access Databse Engine OLEDB Provider"
Also, If your envirnment is 64bit you wont able to use Access as a resource. Go into the properties of your Project and change the Run64BitRuntime property to false in Debugging section and re-try.

I have built some SSRS reports that work fine running in Visual Studio:
However when trying to run the reports in the web browser I get the following error message:
An error has occurred during report processing. (rsProcessingAborted)
Cannot create a connection to data source 'DataSource1'.
(rsErrorOpeningConnection)
ERROR [IM014] [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] The specified DSN
contains an architecture mismatch between the Driver and Application
The data source for my reports that works in Visual Studio is a system DSN 32-bit connection (tiingo_32bit):
When I test the connection it seems to work fine:
This solution and set of reports is based on a Postgresql database which is running on a raspberry pi on my network. None of these reports work.
I also have a MS SQL Server database on my local machine which is also running the SSRS server. The reports I have built from those MS SQL databases work fine in both visual studio and the browser:
Is there something special to be able to use a Postgresql database with SSRS reports?
Visual Studio is (or at least has been in the past) a 32-bit application so it can't work with the 64-bit connection. That said, Visual Studio 2022 is 64-bit so you could try that to see if it solves your problem.
I have the situation below and can't figure out where everything is being saved.
I'm using a new installation of Visual Studio 2012 and didn't explicitly install any version of SQL. I created a Console project in VS and used NuGet to add references to the latest -Pre version of EF (6.0.1 at the time).
When I did the database operations I wanted (just some test stuff: create, add, query, migrations, etc.) everything worked. Shutdown the application, bring it back up and the data was persisted correctly. No problem so far.
When I went to look at the database I was surprised to find that I didn't have Management Studio installed. I also wasn't able to see any databases in the SQL Server Object Explorer in VS2012. I could see a "(localdb)\Projects" server but my database wasn't in it.
When I checked the generated connection string it was:
Data Source=.\SQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=TestProject.Context;Integrated Security=True;MultipleActiveResultSets=True
Using add server in the SQL Server Object Explorer I had to manually enter server names since none were found automatically. I tried localhost\SQLEXPRESS, (localdb)\SQLSERVER, .\SQLEXPRESS, and other similar variants, but those couldn't be found either.
Where is everything being saved?
Thanks.
If SqlExpress is not installed the default is (localdb)\v11.0 which is installed when you install VS2012 (or VS2013).
I have Windows 7 64bit. I had Sql Server 2008 R2 Express installed. I unistalled it and then I tried to install Sql Server 2008 R2 Web. Unfortunatelly on the Setup Support Rules page for 'Consistency validation for SQL Server registry keys' I got 'Failed'. I spent half of a day trying to solve it, but then I assumed that there must be realy something wrong with registry keys and it will be faster just to reinstall Windows.
After formatting the disk and reinstalling Windows 7, rebooting dozen of times I installed all Windows upadtes as well. I also did install some programs like Skype, Thundirbird etc. which has no influence on Sql Server setup.
And then I tried again to install Sql Server 2008 R2 Web. And again an error. A bit different one. Now when the setup is on the Setup Support Rules page I get an error message box with the title "FixSqlRegistryKey_x86 - Application Error" and content: The application was unable to start correctly (0xc000007b). Click OK to close the application. 'Consistency validation for SQL Server registry keys' gets 'Failed' status as well.
My team mate has exactly the same machine as mine. He had no problem with installation (he didnt even need to reinstall Windows).
I run the setup as administrator, from a local folder. I even tried to use the setup files copied from my team mate, for a case if my copy is corrupted. In the setup options I have chosen the 'x64' version.
Any ideas what can be the reason of the problem?
Problem solved.
Someone suggested to me that Web edition should not be installed on Win 7 (just on Windows Server). So perhaps installing a different version would work. My team mate perhaps succeeded acidentially - due to having sql server installed already in express edition... but it is just a guess.
Before I tried to install another edition of SqlServer, I downloaded 2008 Express version and I started the install. From the temporary folder created by the express edition I copied FixSqlRegistryKey_x86.exe file and I had overwritten the problematic file in the Web setup with this file.
I started the setup again. It passed the verification this time. But has crashed on a later point - setup unpacks the installation files to C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Setup Bootstrap\SQLServer2008R2 and runs from it. So I needed to again overwrite the problematic file in this location. Now the installation succeeded.
I've worked with Crystal Reports for several yrs but now with a particular report created by another developer, I cannot change the DB connection/location.
He used an OLE DB connection and created the report for use in a Windows App using Visual Studio. The report works "sort of" in Visual Studio but I have a higher version of VS (VS 2010) than the developer but it is causing issues on the formulas he uses.
I am now just trying to open the report outside of VS directly in Crystal and I can't get it to update the db location.
I created an ODBC linc and tried using it to swap out the db location and it says:
"Data Object cannot be opened/accessed" ... followed by "Unknown Database Connector Error"
I don't know how to troubleshoot this further. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks
I had the same issue, and was able to resolve it by selecting the SQL Server Native Client 10.0 driver rather than the 11.0 one when setting up the ODBC connection.
You have to delete the original if you want to have the same name.
I have a desktop application that was migrated from .Net 1.0 to .Net 4.0. The application is using Crystal Reports and ttx files as the data definition files. The actual database queries happens in business objects and the data are set using SetDataSource() method.
After I upgraded this to .Net 4.0 (and Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2010, version 13), the reports still working great on my developer workstation. But when I installed the application on the test machines I started getting errors like this:
Error in File temp_****{****}.rpt: Failed to load database information.
Where the asterics signify some kind of GUIDs.
The odd thing is that the reports that I did not touch continue to work. Only the reports where I had to update the data source (TTX file) generate this error.
I am also getting this error:
The keycode assembly, BusinessObjects.Licensing.KeycodeDecoder.dll, cannot be loaded.
but I do not know if this is related.
The Keycoder error is not the problem. That is currently a warning message that seems to have no effect on anything (as best I can tell).
Don't be confused by the GUID stuff either. It's just a temp name that Crystal gives the report object.
The real error there is simply "failed to load database information". Something in your TTX update is at fault.
You might try running the report in Crystal 2008 on the machine giving you the problem. Your report is out-of-sync with the TTX file.
