helps to reload the website.

Or you can open the respective website directly:
http://extensions.services.openoffice.org/download/2907

I meant I could download it and install it, but it's just not working: when it tries to establish a connection to the server, it shows a "driver not found for the given url" message == it cannot load the driver.

By the way, is the wiki outdated?
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Database/Drivers/MySQL_Native/1.0#Select_the_type_of_the_driver
I don't see three options if I select MySQL (JDBC, ODBC, native).
I had to select the native connector in the wizard's first page, not MySQL on the first and then native on the second.

Darn it - but there is still a problem...and if I sound mad later in this email it is because I'm mad at the QA guy for not catching it...which would be me.

Ubuntu 9.04 (64bit) - OO.o 3.1.1 - The latest driver from the extension repository just now.

Opening current odb files, created using earlier alpha/beta versions of the driver are working - apparently correctly.

Can not however, create any new odb files using native connection - fails with a socket error. Putting nothing in the property for socket fails with a socket name = the extension file name. (Tried the binary that was sent last week and it fails identically...why didn't I try that...#$%$#)

Also - to be sure, and just now . Went into Win 7, OO.o 3.1.1 and the MySQL Connector 1.0 (although the one sent to me, not retrieved from the extension site just now...hmm) and created a new file, connecting to the MySQL server on the Ubuntu 9.04 server.

Opened this from under the Ubuntu desktop and changed the ip address in properties - the file opens, the forms work, all appears well.

Tried to create a data source via the GUI - nope - still get the socket error.

Will go back and try the actual binary file from the extension site under Win7...arrrgh, then come back to Ubuntu and try with a fresh install of OO.o - could be something with the stored settings from the beta I suppose.
