I seem to be having problems using OOo 2.0 beta to connect to an existing external HSQLDB.
I have put the hsqldb.jar file on the Java class path via OOo's "Tools | Options | Java" and then going to "File | New | Database | connect to an existing source - JDBC". The data source url is jdbc:hsqldb:file://D:/My DBs/DB (where DB is the name of the external HSQLDB database).
Using OOo to test the driver it confirms the driver can be loaded. But when I try to connect to the database it says "The connection to the external data source could not be established. An unknown error occurred. The driver is probably defective". However, the driver is not defective as I use it with other management programs. I have tried the usual things like re-installing OOo.
I really need to use the form based interface of OOo to manage my existing database.
Is anyone else having problems or anyone managed to do what I am trying to do successfully?
Thanks, Mark
