Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: Embedded Base on Windows Share?
I tested using LibreOffice Base 5.1.3.2 from one of the Windows PCs, and received the same error. So the problem doesn't have anything to do with the mounting on my Debian system, anyway. Thanks for your testing. It does look to be some problem in either the 2008 SMB protocol, or the underlying file system implementation. I wish the LibreOffice error message was a little more clear about exactly what the communication problem is.

For multi-user access you need a database server. It is fairly easy to convert your embedded HSQLDB into a server application. -- View this message in context: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/Embedded-Base-on-Windows-Share-tp4185518p4185648.html Sent from the Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: users+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted

It might be a bug, or it might well be a share lock option (either in soffice or on the share itself). What are the options in your CIFS mount ? Can you read/write to the share with other LibreOffice document types ?
