3.0.6 is quite old, you might want to consider upgrading, although it sounds more like you have a CLASSPATH problem. Did you restart OOo after you configured it? > Another question: Are the j-connectors matched for versions of MySQL > or available by releases? Covered in the docs at http://dev.mysql.com/doc/connector/j/en/index.html#id2425523 "Version Guidelines When connecting to MySQL server version 4.1 or newer, it is best to use MySQL Connector/J version 3.1, as it has full support for features in the newer versions of the server, including Unicode characters, views, stored procedures and server-side prepared statements. While Connector/J version 3.0 will connect to MySQL server, version 4.1 or newer, and implements Unicode characters and the new authorization mechanism, Connector/J 3.0 will not be updated to support new features in current and future server versions." -Mark - -- Mark Matthews MySQL AB, Software Development Manager - Client Connectivity Office: +1 408 213 6557 www.mysql.com -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFB2ZhbtvXNTca6JD8RAoplAKCDgnf83IoXIHJBKNkVWMCpGg+mFgCfRbIG LGg3VlV/XGtCED3kxkIj7s8= =LINb -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
