unable to resolve service

Hi folks,

I'm trying to install a windows database program on our macs, thought I'd trial crossover to see if that would save us getting full blown windows installed on the macs to run the database. Crossover installed the DB client no problem, but when it starts the program it fails as it is 'unable to resolve service database'. Is there a way I can add a new service into the bottle so that it will run?

searched the documentation and forums and couldn't find a solution, apologies if already out there somewhere.

Matthew.

What database client? Have you tried adding the MDAC package to the bottle?

Have you looked in our Compatibility Database to see if the application is there? Maybe someone has been down the road you are currently traveling and has posted some useful tips?

Please Note: This Forum is for non-application specific questions relating to installation/configuration of CrossOver. All application-specific posts to this Forum will be moved to their appropriate Compatibility Center Forum.
