Topic: Crystal - Oracle 10g - Where are my tables? Posted: 23 Jan 2009 at 1:31am
Hi all, we develop reports against schema A. QA tests on schema B.
When QA finds problems I need to also verify against B.
This is where it gets crazy.... I can create a new report against a table in B and all is well. However, if I open up the report created against schema A and change the login credentials to point at schema B, I cannot preview. Crystal tells me the tables do not exist and then finishes with an ORA 01031 0 Insufficient privileges error.
WTH - I can create a new one looking at those same table on schema B. I can also run SQL against the tables in B via SQL developer.
I'm obviously missing something here - but what it is I can tell.
Please help before some poor soul outside gets killed by a lapttop hitting him on the head.

Crystal accesses Oracle tables with the format schema_owner.table_name. Just changing the login doesn't update the schema owner. Instead you need to go to the database menu and choose "set location", create a connection to the QA schema, and link the tables from the dev schema to the corresponding tables in the QA schema.
