Description allan_weaver 2017-12-25 17:34:34 UTC
Description:
When I click on the link to design a report in Base, nothing happens.
I can use the wizard to create a report, but this leaves something to be desired.
I can create the report in Base 5.4.4 in design mode in Windows 8.1.


Steps to Reproduce:
1.Bring up Base.
2.Select database.
3.Click on Reports.
4.Click on Create a report in Design Mode.
5.Nothing happens.

Actual Results:  
Nothing. The link blinked, but that's all.


Expected Results:
I want to create a report in Design Mode, as I can in Windows 8.1, 
and as I could before in Ubuntu 16.04.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes


OpenGL enabled: Yes

You can't confirm your own bug. Nobody else has confirmed so I will set this bug to unconfirmed.

I can't confirm the bug for LO 5.4.4.2 on OpenSUSE 42.2 64bit rpm Linux, Build-ID: 2524958677847fb3bb44820e40380acbe820f960

You are using under Ubuntu a special Ubuntu-Build of LO. There must be installed the package for the report-builder and for the report-builder-wizard separately. Have a look for these packages in your packagemanager.
Comment 2 Robert Großkopf 2017-12-26 07:08:07 UTC
Following a private mail of the reporter the problem is solved: ReportBuilder wasn't installed by Ubuntu when LO-Base has been installed.

I will set this one to RESOLVED and WORKSFORME.
