Connection error "Unable to instantiate provider specific database object from settings in config file. DataBaseType is not set, in-valid or config file is missing or unreadable"

If when testing the AyaNova Dataportal connection, you receive the following error: dir=ltr " ">

AyaNova was unable to start

Depending on how early in startup the problem occurred,
a detailed log of the problem with suggestions may have
been saved to the file AyaLog.txt
located at: file:\C:\Program Files\Ground Zero Tech-Works Inc\AyaNova

Error details:
Unhandled Exception:

System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException
Inner exception: GZTWDatabaseFactory: Unable to instantiate provider specific database object from settings in config file

This is because you are testing from the dataportal server itself.

Both the AyaNova program and the Dataportal utility on the server use the same config.txt - so if you change the config.txt to connect via the dataportal on the server, you are asking to connect to the dataportal by the dataportal through the dataportal that is no longer connecting.

This is also identified in step 2.b of the dataportal steps.

When testing, do so from another internal networked computer within your network
