Public bug reported:
I was using OpenOffice 1.9.129 on Ubuntu 5.10 with the included JDBC
driver com.mysql.jdbc.Driver to connect mysql-server 4.0.24 either on
localhost or on other servers without any problem.
After upgrading to Ubuntu 6.06, and installing mysql-
server-5.0.21-3ubuntu1 from server distribution, I tried to do the same.
OpenOffice 2.0.2 Base crashed while loading the driver. Then based on
suggestion, I downloaded JDBC driver mysql-connector-java-3.1.13-bin-jar
and included in the classpath, as I was told that Ubuntu 6.06 does not
ship with java driver. This loaded the driver successfully.
But when I clicked on the Tables to get list of my Tables, did not
display the list of tables and gave following error (phase5_local is the
name of database on localhost with utf-8 encoding): -
The connection to the data source "phase5_local" could not be
established.
Error during query: Unexpected Exception:
java.io.CharCenversionException message given: null
