Already tried. Too time wasted. You say: it is not our fault. LibreOffice say: it is not our fault. Apechefriends say: it is not our fault. Now it turns out it's the users fault. What a nightmare! We were never asked to jump through hoops to get mysql-direct-connector to work. Why we are being asked now? Thank you.

Mysql (mariadb, installed with lampp) is perfectly working in browsers: I can see php+mysql pages in localhost, without any problem. But if I try to open a database odb connected with mysql I get an error message [code] Code: SQL Status: HY000 Error code: 2003 Can't connect to MySQL server on 'localhost' (111) /build/libreoffice-ron9it/libreoffice-7.0.0~rc3/connectivity/source/drivers/mysqlc/mysqlc_general.cxx:119 [/code] I believe that is a problem of mysql-connector provided with Ubuntu, in the past so useful (because LO extension are not working).
