Bug ID: 167960
Summary: Base should display the authentication dialog again
after a failed connection
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 3.3.0 release
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Base
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
In LibreOffice if you open a Base file and connect with a different account
than the one you saved and which is displayed in the authentication dialog and
then close the Base file then you will be unable to reopen this Base file again
without having to restart LibreOffice.
Steps to Reproduce:
You need to connect to the database with two different accounts in order to
reproduce this little inconvenience. We can say user1 and user2.
Important: their password must be different...
1. Open an odb file in LibreOffice normally used by user1 but with the user2.
2. Close this odb file.
3. Try to reopen this odb file.
4. You will never be able to
Actual Results:
If you log in with an account that is not the account saved in the odb file and
after closing this file you try to reopen it, it will not be possible to log in
again.
Expected Results:
When reopening a file in Base if the connection fails, then the authentication
dialog should reappear.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: Yes
Additional Info:
The workaround for this problem is to close LibreOffice and reopen it...
On the other hand, if both users have the same password, then you will see that
when you open the odb file for the second time, you are connected with user1
but Base keep in cache the password of user2. Unfortunately, this cannot work.
