Re: Sun MySQL OpenOffice connector

Hi Fernand,

so you say that any host other than "localhost" does not work for you,
if specified by IP address?

Hmm, cannot reproduce. What exactly do you mean with "MS server"? I
tried with some Windows Server 2003, where one of our MySQL servers is
running. Connecting via IP address works like a charm.
(And my client ran on some Windows machine, too.)

Do you use standard ports? Does the very same connection work if you do
not use the IP address, but the machine name?

IIRC, you can enable tracing for the MySQL Connector/C++ (that's the one
underlying our extension, and doing a lot of the real work) by setting
an environment variable MYSQLCPPCONN_TRACE_ENABLED to something non-empty.

Unfortunately, this prints to STDOUT, which isn't easy to capture on
Windows. I know two ways to do that: First, you could use cygwin, but
it's unlikely you have this at hand :) Second, it should be possible to
copy the "unopkg.com" in your "program" directory to "soffice.com", and
start "soffice.com", which in theory will automatically start
"soffice.exe", and capture its output. Unfortunately, this didn't work
in my 3.1 installation here.

Any other ideas anybody?

Perhaps the log could give a hint what's going on.

May need to come back to this, thanks for the offer.
