LO 4.4.2 seamonkey address book data source

users
#1

I just upgraded to the latest LO 4.4.2 from 4.2.6. I use Seamonkey (latest
release) for my address book source. Today was the first time I needed
addresses in a Writer doc since the upgrade and it was a no-go, getting a
"cannot load" type of error.

I deleted the previous data source and tried adding it again using the
wizard. Choosing "other source" then "Seamonkey" throws a "cannot find data
source" type of error. I had to back down to 4.2.6 to get my work done.

Did I miss something, is Seamonkey no longer supported, or is this a bug?

@ktc,

Please open a BZ issue for this and provide full OS and system
details--https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/

Are you on Windows? We did recently dump a the 32-bit Seamonkey library
linkage in favor of mork, may be the issue for you.

Hi :slight_smile:
Mork? I'm guessing nothing to do with Mindy but is it some sort of generic
connector or something cleverer? (i suspect cleverer) If so does it need
to be activated in some way?

That is probably it - 32-bit Win7 here. Bummer. I'm not prepared for a PC
upgrade yet so I guess I'll stick with 4.2 for a while longer.
