That sounds like a bug worth investigating. > 2) If I store my ODB file locally, then copy it to my webdav server, I > can attempt to open it two ways : (a) by double clicking on it in the > OSX Finder, (b) by using the File - Open menu and selecting it from the > OOo native dialog. > > In both cases, the ODB container is opened and appears on screen. > However, everything is greyed out, all of the action icons on the left > and most of the menu entries are greyed out and inaccessible.

For connecting to the database, the HSQL engine creates the .lck file beside the .odb doc, and the error message looks as if this failed (yes, the error message could point this out a better way - error messages are neither HSQL's nor Base's strength, it seems). > I can edit and save existing Calc and Writer files stored on the webdav > server, so what is preventing the same with the ODB file ? > Should I open a bug report ? Ocke could shed more light on this, I seem to remember he fixed something in this area recently. Ocke?
