Without the actual error message we can not help.

"not working" is merely a synonym for "unemployed" - it is not useful for diagnostic purposes.

Standard practice here is, when marking a thread as Resolved, to make a post indicating how it was resolved. This helps future searchers.

Also, we strive for a professional standard of written English, among other things to help those whose first language is not English. DSXchange is not a mobile telephone; there is no requirement to use SMS-style or idiosyncratic abbreviations. The second person personal pronoun in English is spelled "you", not "u"; the present tense of the verb "to be" is spelled "are", not "r".
