architecture mismatch between ODBC driver and application

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have Windows 2008 server R2 OS which is 64 bit OS. I have created an SQL Server ODBC connections for my CMC database. I am trying to install Crystal Reports Server 2008 V1 SP3 but I am getting this "architecture mismatch between ODBC driver and application" error while choosing the ODBC datasource for CMS.

I thought CRS 2008 version would easly be installed on Windows 2008 server as it mentioned on the installation guide.

How do I resolve this issue?

Moved to BOE Admin forum.

CRS 2008 is a 32 bit app so all attachments, Printers, DB clients, etc. must all be 32 bit or support 32 bit applications.

Use the 32 ODBC administrator in \windows\syswow64 folder.

Thank you

Don
