We are getting an error on the controller for the Crystal Reports viewer: "Physical database not found". I have encountered this error when I opened a specific report on the Visual Basic project I am working on. The message would pop up and I cannot do anything since everything on the screen would stop. I have already mapped the database with the project. I need your help in fixing the problem to continue with the project I am working on. Right now I am stuck  and cannot proceed. I will try anything you suggest.

Error:

Physical Database not found.

To solve this problem do the following task.
   1. Copy craxdrt.dll and craxdrt_res_en.dll into the Windows\System32 folder
   2.  Register craxdrt.dll.
        - at the command prompt type regsvr32 craxdrt.dll
        - verify that you get a dialog that confirms that registration was successful
   3.  Drop p2smon.dll and crviewer.dll into the same folder as your application's executable.
   4. Run your application and verify that Crystal Reports viewer shows up.
