I am new to Crystal and need some help getting a basic report available on Crystal Server.
I've create a report with Crystal Reports connecting to a remote MySql db. I want to move that report to Crystal Server running on redhat 7. I understand that I need to create a ODBC DSN. Where is this documented? The server install guide mentioned DataDirect connection. Is this just an ODBC connection? Can anyone point me to some documentation that specifically deals with MySQL on redhat?
The Install guide points me to modify
<INSTALLDIR>/sap_bobj/enterprise_xi40/odbc.ini
and a sample file - odbc_dd_7_1_5_sample.ini
I do not see anything related to MySQL. The samples seem far more complex that the typical ODBC dsn. Once I create the dsn, what are the next steps? All of the docs that I am reading just give a few lines with not a lot of details.
Thanks,
- Mark
