Re: Error in Squirrel when connecting to Database

After trying to install 2.51, I get this error when connecting to the
database:

Unexpected Error occured attempting to open an SQL connection.

So, I was thinking it's something wrong on my side since the installation
should be working for most other people. Is it some Windows Setting issue?
Am using it on WinXP.

Thanks
