When deploying a production network, a highly-available Data Server is a best-practice. This minimizes the possibility of service downtime and data loss in the event of a catastrophic failure in a single node, and ensures high-availability for Moxie services.
Moxie 7.05 and higher, supports an automated active/passive failover system when using multiple Data Servers.
Microsoft SQL Server Compact 3.5 Service Pack 2 is a prerequisite for this application and is not installed or has been removed from the host computer.
Moxie Players display a "No licensed Player connections remain at the Moxie Data Server. Check with your Moxie Administrators to ensure that connection are available" message. Either:

To change the Data Server to which your Studio connects:
