Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 7470
odbc error
Last modified: 2006-05-31 14:29:06 UTC
When attempting to set up access via unixODBC to a postgresql database, OpenOffice.org 1.0.1 responds with a message box "Could not load the program library libodbc.so or it is corrupted. The ODBC data source selection is not available". Version 1.0.0 works fine. To reproduce: select Tools -> Data Sources, New Data Source, enter a name, select a Database type of ODBC, then select the "..." button. The above message box pops up. System: RedHat 7.3, with locally compiled kernel 2.4.19. UnixODBC 2.2.0 installed from Red Hat provided RPM. PostgreSQL 7.2.1 installed (on the same machine) from Red Hat provided RPM.
Hi Marc, could you have a look at the problem, Dirk
This can be resolved by symlinking libodbc.so to /bin sub-directory of OpenOffice instalation directory.
You have to set a symbolic to libodbc.so.1 to make it work. Best regards, Ocke
