Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 1529
638 Crashes on Database Addressbook splash screen.
Last modified: 2006-05-31 14:29:06 UTC
Install binary 638 on debain testing, kernel 2.4.x, JAVA2/1.3.1, and mozilla 0.93 installed in home directory. When opening splash screen comes up to chose address book database if mozilla is selected the program crashes when I hit the next button. After further testing found that if I selected Edit -> Database Exchange; and clicked on addresses the program crashed and gave the following error: ************ Error occurred during initialization of VM Unable to load native library: libjvm.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory ******************** After I softlinked all of the java libraries to /usr/lib the program doesn't crash but nothing happens if I select addresses. If I select biblio the define button comes on, and the program doesn't crash.
Same crash in windows with mozilla 0.93 for opening splash screen when mozilla is selected. When Edit -> Database Exchange is selected it doens't crash but no selection is allowed with address.
Alvin, can you please check the settings for your "Addresses" data source (Tools/Data sources)? Is it set to JDBC? I suspect so. If so, this bug describes two separate issues: One is the crash of the pilot, and one is the crash when accessing JDBC. The pilot first creates a dummy data source (and by default, new data sources are of type JDBC), and then fills it with settings for accessing the address data you've chosen. This second step obviously failed, so upon a restart, the data source, though named "Addresses", is simply a dummy JDBC data source. If so, would you mind filing a separate issue for this JDBC part? Something like "accessing a JDBC data source with java libs not available crashes OOo"?
changed VCatalog::getTables (connectivity/source/sdbcx) accordingly ...
Alvin, can you please confirm that the bug does not happen anymore in the latest build (OO641B)? If so, can you please close the bug?
Fixed in OO641B.
change subcomponent to 'none'
