Hello Marcus,

I've tried it a second ago and I get the Linux x86-64 OXT file. Maybe it
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By the way, is the wiki outdated?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.
