I tested using LibreOffice Base 5.1.3.2 from one of the Windows PCs, and received the same error. So the problem doesn't have anything to do with the mounting on my Debian system, anyway.

Thanks for your testing. It does look to be some problem in either the 2008 SMB protocol, or the underlying file system implementation. I wish the LibreOffice error message was a little more clear about exactly what the communication problem is.

Hi Christopher,


Hi, I want to create a small embedded Base db for 3 or 4 users. It is a
mix of Gnu/Linux and Windows desktops. I can create a Base db just fine
on my person Debian laptop, but if I try to create it on our Windows
share, or copy it there and then use it, I get an error that Base cannot
communicate with the database. I can read/write to the share fine with a
file manager or text editor... so I am thinking this has something to do
with the nuances of NTFS, or file locks, or something like that. Does
anyone have any insight on that, and related work arounds?


Thanks for letting me know about your setup (I guess you used reply only
to me because I didn't see it appear on the mailing list).

I have just created an embedded hsqldb ODB file (i.e. the default ODB
type) with LO 5132 on OSX 10.11.5, in which I saved the ODB file to a
SMB share hosted on a Linux Mint 17.3 server. I can open, read, and
write to the file from either the LM server or the Mac OSX client.

My guess would be that the issue lies with your Win 2008 server.

Alex
