Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 86615
Missing "name already used"-error message by using mysql db
Last modified: 2013-01-29 21:47:32 UTC
After testing over several days I found the following problem. If you use hsql db and create a query or a view with a same name as a table you get an error message like in the attachment. So you can't save it with the same name. This is a correct behaviour. If you use mysql via ODBC or JDBC you get no error message. The Problem after this is that you can't edit the table anymore. My idea is: if someone choose a name which is already used must get the same message.
Created attachment 51851 [details] Error Message with HSQL DB

change owner, lower prio, set target
This problem is present also in OOo 2.4, both linux and windows version. Queries get "confused" when it hase the same name of a table. It ust not be possible togive the same name to a table and a query. Thank you.
fs->mechtilde: Do you create a table, a view, or a query? If the a table/view: Do you fill in the "Catalog"/"Schema" (JDBC/ODBC) field in the "Save As" dialog, or do you leave it empty? Do you give it the name of an existing table/view, or of an existing query? If a query: To you give it a qualified name (with a . in it), or an unqualified one? Sorry, I am unable to reproduce the problem, please add a step-by-step description.
