--- Comment #4 from Alex Thurgood <ipla...@tuta.io> --- @Allison : you have downloaded and installed a development version of LibreOffice, is this really what you wanted to do ? If you did, then you should have realized that some things may not work, and/or may be broken. One would hope that you would also be familiar with the requirement that having a Java virtual machine on your operating system is also a requirement to be able to use LibreOffice Base if you are using the default embedded database engine HSQLDB. You have several choices available : - download and install a version of a JDK that is recognized by LibreOffice on Windows (the screenshot you posted appears to show a Windows OS window decoration) - this should allow you to create embedded hsqldb ODB files and use the database ReportBuilder (which is written in Java); - activate the experimental options in your LibreOffice configuration and then choose to work with embedded Firebird ODB files ; - create an ODB database file that links to a different backend db engine and which does not require Java in order to function (e.g. Mysql/MariaDB/Postgresql). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
