    software which cannot find the location of the
    company file due to network problems. It occurs
    in multi-users where the hosting server that the
    file has been placed is not accessible. Sometimes
    it is caused by some configuration issue, or even
    firewall settings, or network issues. Solutions
    will usually consist of rechecking the
    connection, starting the QuickBooks Database
    Server Manager and permissions of the file.
