Problem description: Can't seem to connect to MySQL in Calc. The "Database properties - Additional Settings" dialog "Socket" field is a bare text box that is missing a filesystem browser button to select a socket file, i.e. "/usr/local/zend/mysql/tmp/mysql_sock". I'm not sure this field is even available using the initial database connection wizard pages; I went in and found it after trying to create a connection using a MYSQL (JDBC) connection and having it fail (after a long time looking at the spinning beach ball), then going in to the connection properties after Calc loaded and choosing MySQL (Native). Then, the "Finish" button never became available. Please see attached screenshot. I tried to search for existing bugs, but couldn't see a way to on the web page I was offered. Also, the Browse button on the bug submission page doesn't work - it may be Ghostery in Safari on OS X Lion. Steps to reproduce: 1. Try to connect to MySQL in Calc. 2. .... 3. .... Current behavior: Fail. Expected behavior: Be offered the option to select a socket file, and create a database connection. Platform (if different from the browser): Mac OS X Lion 10.7.3 (11D50d) The version text in the OpenOffice / About menu is not selectable to be copied, but it says: OpenOffice.org 3.3.0 OOO330m20 (Build: 9567) Safari Version 5.2 (7535.18.5) Browser: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_7_3) AppleWebKit/535.18.5 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/5.2 Safari/535.18.5
