I’ve attached a test document – Test list.odb In left column (Database) select Tables. In centre column (Tables) double click Addresses. The OpenOffice Base: Table Data View does not open. In AOO 4.1.3, [AOO413m1(Build:9783) - Rev. 1761381 2016-09-23 02:39:34 (Fri, 23 Sep 2016)],the Table Data View opens. I’ve attached a screenshot. In the release version of AOO 4.1.4, [AOO414m5(Build:9788) - Rev. 1811857 2017-10-16 22:12:14 (Mon, 16 Oct 2017)], the Table Data View opens. The build fix for the Calc bug (Issue 127568 - Diagrams become corrupt (not retrievable) when Calc document is saved) has created a new bug in Base. I am using MacBook Pro, macOS ver, 10.13.1 High Sierra, Java 9 (jdk-9.0.1.jdk)

Cannot re-create. When attempting to follow the instructions, I get an OpenOffice Base pop-up: """ The connection to the data source "Test list" could not be established. The connection to the external data source could not be established. No SBDC driver was found for the given URL. """
Jim: Are you using Java 9? If not, do you have the legacy Apple Java 6 installed?

Oh. And 10.12.6 (Sierra)

The best is to download this file.

Wondering if this is related... Maybe we are missing some error pop-up and OpenOffice is just silently disabling.
I can confirm that I get what Larry gets on Sierra 10.12.6. When opening the Base file I get the following in /var/log/system.log: 596:Nov 3 10:29:19 Daves-MacBook-Pro soffice[70777]: assertion failed: 16G29: libxpc.dylib + 74307 [BF896DF0-D8E9-31A8-A4B3-01120BFEEE52]: 0x89 597:Nov 3 10:29:22 Daves-MacBook-Pro soffice[70777]: BUG in libdispatch client: kevent[EVFILT_MACHPORT] monitored resource vanished before the source cancel handler was invoked When I open the Base file with the original 4.1.4 from October 17 I only see: 598:Nov 3 10:31:40 Daves-MacBook-Pro soffice[70791]: assertion failed: 16G29: libxpc.dylib + 74307 [BF896DF0-D8E9-31A8-A4B3-01120BFEEE52]: 0x89
(In reply to Jim Jagielski from comment #4) > /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/1.8.0.jdk/Contents/Home Do you also have 1.6.0.jdk?
Given Dave's confirmation in https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=127580#c9 the ongoing discussion on dev@ I am setting this as confirmed and as blocking Issue 127568.
Seems to be solved with 4.1.5-dev http://home.apache.org/~jim/AOO-builds/
Keeping open to ensure that these are tested and fixed in RCs
Marking as fixed
