We are having a problem with crystal baan toolkit. The problem is when we try to connect baan (with native driver) an error appears that says: "No server specified in tabledef or server cannot be started." any suggestions?:confused:

Sometimes the crystal native driver has problems with host-mode
database setups.. try doing something like

{crystaluser}*:*:oracle7(TWO_TASK=BAAN, TNS_ADMIN=/path):N

at the top of your tabledef6.1 and see if you can connect..

if you can you may wish to log a case with crystal or baan...

Take a look at article number c2008398 out on Crystal Decisions web page at:

Hello Whatever,

Crystal connects to Baan directly and tries to start the database driver. Several people define the database connection by setting environment variables in a script that will be performed before starting the bshell. After the script defined all variables the bshell is started. This script is not started with a connection from Crystal. So the whole database connection definition must be done inside Baan without any environment variables. So in the db_resource or the tabledef.

Bye,

Garfield
