Created attachment 204008 [details] Screenshot of wrong text content and wrong default connection. Start Base Database → Database Wizard appears. Connect to an existing Database → MySQL/MariaDB → Next. The attached screenshot shows what happens: 3 possibilities to connect, but description will only differ between ODBC and JDBC. Since LO 6.2 MariaDB direct connection has been added. Should be noticed in the description. Also direct connections are constructed for better results and easier connection between the database and Base. So "Connect directly" should be the default value, not "Connect using JDBC". JDBC will need an external driver and Java running. Note: Try the same for PostgreSQL. Only the direct connection will be available when trying to connect to PostgreSQL, because this is the preferred driver.
Confirming with Version: 25.8.3.2 (AARCH64) Build ID: 8ca8d55c161d602844f5428fa4b58097424e324e CPU threads: 8; OS: macOS 26.1; UI render: Skia/Metal; VCL: osx Locale: fr-FR (fr_FR.UTF-8); UI: fr-FR Calc: threaded The displayed text in the dialog window implies that there are only 2 ways to connect to a MariaDB/MySQL database, and yet offers a third way, the direct native driver SDBC interface.
