Hi all,

I maanged to get hold of a machine with Windows 7 Pro to test. I downloaded the
latest available daily build from master from the 2008R2 buildbot, i.e. from
26/11/2011.

I can confrim the bug, at least when trying to read an Access 2007 file
(accdb). I don't have any Access 03 (mdb) files around (last time I used Access
was well over 10 years ago).

The wizard will let you choose the file, and seems to attempt the connection,
but this then throws the error message that others have already provided.

So it is not fixed in master, and it really ought to be sorted out as it means
that there is currently no point in anyone on Windows to upgrade from 3.3.3 to
any of the 3.4.x versions if they require db connections to an Access db
source.

Removing needinfo keyword.

Alex

I have added the NEEDINFO keyword because someone really needs to test this
with a download from master on Windows to see if the problem hasn't already
been fixed. It is pointless going on about fixing it in 3.4.x if no-one has
tested a recent master build.

Hi guys!!




Hi guys!!

We are also hitting the same problem with LibreOffice Base (3.4.4) while using
it at 150 PC with Windows XP/Vista/7. We also have 60 PC with Debian/Ubuntu
using the same version, but it is not possible to open any Access database
there... It option is not implemented (...)


"SQL Status: HY000

The connection to the external data source could not be established. No SDBC
driver was found for the given URL."


We are aware that this can be workarounded by using the ODBC connector, but
this is not an option since the process needs to be done by plain users with
poor (or none) computer skills.

With such amount of machines to maintain, we are facing a big problem because
at this point we must evaluate wehther going back to OpenOffice again or trying
to downgrade to LibreOffice 3.3. Is there any plan to fix this at some point?

Thanks in advance!
Best regards!

Hi Rainer,

What do you mean by this link ? The earliest version mentioned in the bug
report is 3.4.0RC1. It has been present ever since, just that nobody was
bothered about fixing Base bugs when 3.4.0 was released.

Hello, 


I had the same problem until I realized that the LibreOffice Base was not
installed.

After I installed it throught Ubuntu, everything came back to normal: reading
database files from any source and keeping my mail merge up to date.

TIP: while using the mail merge in the Writer, press F4 key to have access to
the merge fields using drag & drop.


Cheers

Good question. I'll remove it, the bug is confirmed up to at least 3.4.3.

I can confirm that bug on LibreOffice 3.4.3 OOO340m1 (Build:302), Windows XP.
We are migrating in our company from MSO to LO. We don't have many Access
databases but from time to time we get some files from external partners. For
us it is important that we could open those files.

All :

Please test on 3.4.3, and additionally with a recent build for Windows from
master (if one is available).

Hi Michael,

Possibly linked to the removal/deactivation by François Tigeot of the Adabas
compilation. I think that the ADO stuff was also deactivated at the same time
by mistake, but from what I remember, this was later corrected/reverted.


We need someone to try this with a build from master on Windows, or else 3.4.3
(if the changes from master were back ported ??)

I confirm the problem with version 3.4.3 (OOO340m1, build 302)

When trying to open a base document which links to a Microsoft Access database
and when creating a new Base document which links to a (any) Microsoft Access
database, I get the error message (translation from Dutch to English by me):
***
The connection with the external datasource cannot be established because no
SDBC-driver for the given URL is found.
***

with the extra information:
***
A connection for the following URL was asked
"sdbc:ado:access:PROVIDER=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;DATA
SOURCE=path_plus_filename.mdb"."
