Troubleshooting the Offline Training block

Errors on the property page of the Offline Trainer could cause the trainer to return errors.

1. Ensure that the database and the user-name and password to connect to the database are still valid.

2. The tick-marks on the right may all be ticked due to the availability of the database and tables when the model was trained at some previous time.  If the database or tables do not exist when the blueprint is loaded on a different machine, they may still be all ticked.  The connection to the database will need to be reconfigured for training to succeed.

3. A default table-name is generated (Train_xxxxxx) by using a random number.  It is advised that the user assign a specific table name for the dataset/application.  Different applications which were developed by editing the same basic blueprint may be trying to put different sets of variables into the same table if the table name is not changed.

4. Double check whether the data is in fact available in the database when the "Reuse data in database" checkbox is ticked.

5. On the connection tab of the data link property page, the user MUST always select the "Allow saving password" tick-box to enable Architect to access the database.
