--- Comment #2 from [email protected] --- Terrance, My system is Slackware-13.37 32 bit and 64 bit and I am using the re-packaged SlackBuilds LibreOffice package which works and has worked for the last 2-3 years without problems both in testing and production (our secretary and book-keeper). Using the steps that you listed below, and trying to connect to a PostgreSQL server throws an exception when connecting to a database on the PostgreSQL server whether one is trying to create a new .odb file or opening an existing .odb file using exactly the steps that you outlined. I am running PostgreSQL 9.2.1 but the postgresql-sdbc connector works in 3.5.7 with this version of PostgreSQL but not in 3.6. My databases have many large tables and as I stated before, everything works in LibreOffice 3.5.7 but not 3.6. My JRE is Oracle 1.7R9 (actually jdk 1.7R9). Steps to create the error: 1) Start LibreOffice and create a new database 2) Select "connect to an existing database" and select PostgreSQL as the type 3) Fill in connection information host=localhost dbname=database_name 4) Enter username on the database server and click "Test Connection" Alternately, 1) Open an existing *.odb file that works when connecting to a PostgreSQL server in LO 3.5 2) Try to test the connection (double click on tables or try to test the connection through "Edit Connection Properties" and "Test Connection" This is where everything fails with an error message that states that "Connection to database cannot be established" I have tried single and double quotes around the hostname and database name with the same results. Everything works with JDBC and postgresql-9.2 jdbc driver. I don't have PostgreSQL 9.1 running on any of my servers any more and really don't have a spare server to switch back to 9.1 right now. Hope this helps -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
