Public bug reported: I am running xubuntu 12.04, 32 bit, fully up to date. I installed libreoffice 4.2.0.4 from the ubuntu libreoffice standard ppa. This includes:
libreoffice-mysql-connector 1.0.2+LibO4.2.0~rc4-0ubuntu1~precise4 In libreoffice 4.1.4 this mysql(native) connector worked locally and over my home network. In 4.2.0.4 it works locally but not over my home network,. Nothing else has changed. Mysql(JDBC) still works. The reported error is: [code] SQL Status: HY000 Error code: 2002 Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2) [/code] This is odd, since I am trying to connect over my network. The Libreoffice team have said they do not support mysql connector, but rely on distributions such as ubuntu. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1276442 Title: libreoffice Mysql connector fails over network To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1276442/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
