Crash goes away (on Debian) after upgrading unixodbc to 2.3.1-1. So until hint to the contrary, seems to be a bug in UnixODBC -> NOTOURBUG.
It does not work though, the list of tables is empty. This seems to be a mdbtools bug, because isql also cannot get the list of tables. Try: echo help | isql Pippo | less -SIM It "finds" 10 tables, but no info on them (no name, ...). The SQLTables function seems to be not implemented in mdbtools, or buggy on your particular example or ... (SQLGetData returns an error code, but subsequent SQLGetDiagRec returns all-zero SQLSTATE, no error string, ...). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libreoffice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1242355 Title: [Upstream] LibreOffice Base connection to mdb via odbc crashes on saving odb file Status in LibreOffice Productivity Suite: Won't Fix Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I was trying to connect to an existing mdb (MS Access) database file using unixodbc and libreoffice-base, I've got unixodbc , undixodbc-bin and libmdbodbc1 packages installed I set the odbc as following : /etc/odbc.ini [Pippo] Description = mine database Driver = /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/odbc/libmdbodbc.so.1 Database = /home/magowiz/pippo.mdb /etc/odbcinst.ini [MDBTools] Description = MDBTools Driver Driver = /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/odbc/libmdbodbc.so.1 Setup = /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/odbc/libmdbodbc.so.1 Usage = 1 FileUsage = 1 UsageCount = 2 I use the connection wizard into libreoffice base : I can successfully test mine connection but while I'm saving the odb file the whole program crashes and close itself It follows distro and software versions : $ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 13.10 Release: 13.10 apt-cache policy libreoffice-base libreoffice-base: Installed: 1:4.1.2~rc3-0ubuntu1 Candidate: 1:4.1.2~rc3-0ubuntu1 apt-cache policy unixodbc unixodbc: Installed: 2.2.14p2-5ubuntu4 Candidate: 2.2.14p2-5ubuntu4 apt-cache policy libmdbodbc1 libmdbodbc1: Installed: 0.7-3 Candidate: 0.7-3 ProblemType: Crash DistroRelease: Ubuntu 13.10 Package: libreoffice-core 1:4.1.2~rc3-0ubuntu1 [modified: usr/lib/libreoffice/program/libcomphelper.so usr/lib/libreoffice/program/libi18nlangtag.so usr/lib/libreoffice/program/libmergedlo.so usr/lib/libreoffice/program/libspalo.so usr/lib/libreoffice/program/libucbhelper.so usr/lib/libreoffice/program/libunopkgapp.so usr/lib/libreoffice/program/oosplash usr/lib/libreoffice/program/pluginapp.bin usr/lib/libreoffice/program/soffice.bin usr/lib/libreoffice/program/spadmin.bin usr/lib/libreoffice/program/unopkg.bin usr/lib/libreoffice/program/uri-encode] ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.11.0-12.19-generic 3.11.3 Uname: Linux 3.11.0-12-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: wl ApportVersion: 2.12.5-0ubuntu2 Architecture: amd64 CrashCounter: 1 Date: Sun Oct 20 16:19:16 2013 ExecutablePath: /usr/lib/libreoffice/program/soffice.bin MarkForUpload: True ProcCmdline: /usr/lib/libreoffice/program/soffice.bin --splash-pipe=5 SegvAnalysis: Skipped: missing required field "Disassembly" Signal: 11 SourcePackage: libreoffice Stacktrace: No symbol "__nih_abort_msg" in current context.
