Cause

Crystal Reports failed to get information to fill out the report, even though it did connect before the failure.

Solution

  • In most cases, this error is caused by the specific report.
    • Most likely, the internal query of the report failed when it was run. The report (or database structure) may be out of date.
  • Check ODBC, if its pointed to an actual server with a valid username and password but the database/table/field doesn't exist on this server(most likely because its incorrect), you'll get this error.
