Bamboo Intelligence

Many thanks to Dmitri Popov for the interesting and informative articles over the years. I sure have learned a lot with your help. However, I seem to have come stuck following your guide for setting up business intelligence with OpenOffice Base linked to BambooInvoice. I have a working installation of BambooInvoice, and when I get to testing the connection with the database from the setup wizard in OpenOffice, it won't connect. I have attached a screen dump of the error. I am using bambooinvoice as the database name; the server URL is http://localhost/myname/newco/bambooinvoice, and the port is 3306.

My software versions are OpenOffice 2.4.1 with JRE 1.6.0_07 and MySQL connector 5.1.7.
