Since it might occur to other Debian users, a short summary. - The main problem is that there are *two* problems, on in the mysql setting the other in the libmyodbc driver. (I was aware of the second not on the first). - The libmyodbc driver and the R/O problem: Using the macro mentioned in earlier mails (inserting the Name of the data base one has chosen in OO's data source) works after restarting OO, if I am root. - the problem is that for other users this does not work. The reason for this (strange) behaviour has to do with the mysql setting. In older version, it was possible for _any_ user to have anonymous access to the default data base, called test. So the following .odbc.ini setting was fine: --8<------------------------schnipp------------------------->8--- [MySQL-test] Description = MySQL database test Driver = MySQL Server = localhost Database = test Port = 3306 Socket = Option = Stmt = --8<------------------------schnapp------------------------->8--- However in recent version of mysql, the anynomous access was taken away. However, and that was the problem, none of the users had access to the default data base. This can be checked by the command mysqlaccess user database. - So all I had to was to give myself the access to the data base I wanted (and created) user the command mysql_setpermission and mysqladmin for creating new data base. Then of course the .odbc.ini file has to be something like this, --8<------------------------schnipp------------------------->8--- [MySQL-test] Description = MySQL database test Driver = MySQL Server = localhost user = oub Database = test Port = 3306 Socket = Option = Stmt = [MySQL-MatIQ] Description = MySQL database test Driver = MySQL Server = localhost user = oub Database = MatIQ Port = 3306 Socket = Option = Stmt =--8<------------------------schnapp------------------------->8--- Thats all.
