            Bug ID: 126624
           Summary: Suggested database connection string parameters
                    incorrect in URL entry dialog
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.2.0.0.alpha0+
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Base
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

Description:
1) Try to create an ODB file using the DB creation wizard and choose the option
JDBC.

2) In the connection string URL entry dialog (above the field for entry of the
string), a suggestion is made to use the following string:

Datasource URL (e.g. host=$host:$port dbname=$database)

This suggestion is completely wrong and will lead to a user spending hours
trying to guess what the correct string might be (or trawling the internet for
it)


Steps to Reproduce:
See above

Actual Results:
Incorrect suggestion for datasource connection parameters leading to failure to
establish valid connection

Expected Results:
The suggestion should either be removed completely, or else tailored to the
chosen type of database for which a connection is desired


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No
