Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 68676
Form does not get filled with data in OS read-only mode
Last modified: 2017-05-20 10:13:09 UTC
When migrating from OOo 1.x we detected the following different behavior when using forms together with database access (MySql). To allow every user to use the same copy of a particular form this is stored centrally with Linux file attributes "read-only". When using OOo 1.x we could open that form and access and change the database without problems. When opening the same form with OOo 2.0.2 we even will not see any data. When changing the Linux file attributes to "write" the MySql database can be used without any problems. But the drawback is that the form can be changed by the user as well.
Reassigned to MSC.
