1 This is the documentation if you want to use mailmerge (not needed)
3 First make sure you installed package openoffice.org-sdbc-postgresql on Debian, or on Windows, using Tools/Package Manager from the menu, then click on "Add" and select postgres-sdbc-0.7.5.zip that you've downloaded from http://dba.openoffice.org/drivers/postgresql/index.html
5 Databases must be registered in the openoffice registry of user oomailing.
7 The easy way to do that is to lunch openoffice as oomailing:
9 As root, set a password:
10 host:~# passwd oomailing
12 Then login with an X display:
13 user@host:~$ ssh -X oomaling@localhost
16 oomailing@host:~$ soffice
18 You need to restart openoffice after that. Also restart oomailing server:
19 host:~# /etc/init.d/oomailing restart
21 You need to register databases.
22 Database url should be something like "dbname=ngw host=localhost password=secretpassord" and username should be setup correctly
23 Save your file such as guideogm.odb
25 Launch openoffice again:
26 oomailing@host:~$ oowriter
27 Then choose Edit/Select Database from the menu. Here you can add a database, such as /var/www/guideogm/static/guideogm.odb
