Hello Ian,
I am at loss wondering what is still wrong in your case. You have obviously
added the Java Runtime Environment in LO (I specified the Oracle 1.7.0_03 version),
as well as added the jar-file of the connector under "Class Path" (the jar-file is
selected under "add archives"). For the server I actually specified the host name
(not localhost) because I access the DB also from a client across a LAN.
As I said before, I don't use MyAdmin but only the command-line client (mysql),
so I cannot be of any help there...
Sorry in any case for not coming up with the "magic wand"....
Regards
Heinz

Regarding the JDBC-connector:
download it from the MySQL homepage, un-tar it, then under LO go into
Options -> Extended ("Erweitert" in the German version). There you add
a Java Runtime Environment and also specify the directory into which you
put the .jar-file of the connector in the class path...


Thanks Heinz
I got the Connector from MySQL Downloads and did what you suggest,
un-tarred it into a Folder called /home/SOFTWARE. Went to the Java
settings in LO and added this path to Class Path.
(BTW the 1.4.0 setting is at 'Options>Advanced' now).

I then re-started and re-booted the system and went to LO Base -
Select Connect to existing DB
Pick 'MySQL'
Connect using JDBC
Enter DB Name
Server localhost
Port 3306
Driver class comes up as 'com.mysql.jdbc.Driver so Test Class.

ERROR - "The JDBC driver could not be loaded"

This is on my Test machine - My Work machine will not even load MyAdmin
still and I can't crack that one either!! I wonder if something has
changed in the new PCLOS or in LO???

Once again I'm stuck again - any thoughts!!??
