New ODBC Connector and Crystal Reports XI R2
We're thinking about using Crystal Reports for some of our reporting needs, so we downloaded an evaluation version to give it a whirl. I've run into a problem trying to set it up...
Scenario 1: Broken ODBC - Working Crystal Reports
When I install the eval version of Crystal Reports, it runs fine, but the NS ODBC connector breaks with:
"Error Connecting to Database: ERROR [IM003]
Specified driver could not be loaded due to system error 998 (NetSuiteODBCDriver)."
Scenario 2: Broken Crystal Reports - Working ODBC
If I boot into safe mode and re-install the latest version of OpenSSL and the ODBC Connector, it once again runs. Unfortunately, Crystal Reports breaks. It can no longer start the service
