Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 119409
CRASH - attempting to access a mysql native connector based ODB causes crash on Mac OSX
Last modified: 2017-05-20 09:36:04 UTC
AOOo 340m1 build9589 Mysql native connector from extensions download site. ODB file with connection details to locally hosted mysql database. THe ODB file does not cause crash with OOo 3.2.1, OOo 3.3.0, LibO 3.3.4, LibO 3.5.3.2, NeoOffice 3.1.2, NeoOffice 3.2.1. Alex
Created attachment 77587 [details] Crash rep trace
Mysql connector not developed after moving from Oracle to Apache, due to license incompatibilities. Use JDBC or ODBC connectors with MySQL on any platform.
Change importance.
Alex: As in bug 119410 - can you please check, if the crash occurs in OOo 3.4 beta.
A crash is a P2
OOo 3.4 beta installation set can be found at http://ftp5.gwdg.de/pub/openoffice.archived/extended/3.4beta/
Downloaded developer build Rev 1325589 The connector now works with that developer build on Mac. Setting Resolved fixed. Alex
I might add that suggesting the use of ODBC connector on Mac is not a solution. Most Mac OSX versions now run in 64bit kernel mode. OSX Lion is exclusively 64bit kernel. AOO, as a 32bit program will run in 64 bit kernel mode. However, the ODBC connector does not work with AOO, either in 32bit or 64bit versions. You can create an ODB file, the connection appears to work, but when you click on Tables, you see nothing. Alex
Thanks for testing, the result strongly points at this issue having the same root cause as 119410: a wrong calling convention was used. BTW: The snapshot you were testing is pre-AOO340, so upgrading to the officially released AOO 3.4.0 would be even better: http://www.openoffice.org/news/aoo34.html *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of issue 119410 ***
(Replying to myself from comment #9) > BTW: The snapshot you were testing is pre-AOO340 Revision 1325589 was pre-AOO340 until this release candidate became the official AOO 3.4.0 release for most languages...

LOL, I was originally using (when I opened the report) the release version of AOO 3.4.0, that's where it didn't work, or at least so I thought, the one available from the download page... Alex
