Using master build : Version: 4.1.0.0.alpha0+ Build ID: efc4761686b9c566d9a45fb9ab3984d7704603b on OSX The database wizard allows the user to connect to a Mac address book, however this fails to load once the ODB file has been saved, with the following error message : A connection for the following URL was requested "sdbc:address:macab". Regression over previous behaviour. Alex
@Roman : any chance of confirming ? Alex
It works fine in : Version 4.0.3.3 (Build ID: 0eaa50a932c8f2199a615e1eb30f7ac74279539) Alex
Putting the db people on copy, even if they don't have Macs to test on. This bug is OSX specific. Alex
There isn't more information in the error message? (click "more" button and then click each "level" on the left hand-side) For example "could not find a driver for this URL" or something. Does a connection setup with an older version still work, or same error message? Maybe the MacAB driver is just deactivated / not built / ... in master? I don't see a Mac build log on http://tinderbox.libreoffice.org/MASTER/status.html right now to take a look.
"The connection to the data source "MacAb40_test" could not be established." This is the error message I get when I try to open an ODB file in LO master that I originally created with LO 4.0.3 More info : SQL Status: HY000 The connection to the external data source could not be established. No SDBC driver was found for the given URL. A connection for the following URL was requested "sdbc:address:macab". Alex
