Haia I upgraded from SUSE 8.2 to 9.0 and I also included Openoffice in the upgrade. Now I have 2 ( two) Openoffice in my menu ,one is OO 1.1.0 and the other one is 1.1. When I click on OO 1.1 , nothing happens, (starting from CLI says ,command not found. Clicking on 1.1.0 starts some activity in the taskbar but after a while it stops and OO doesn't start. I have some files I created a couple of months ago and clicking on those , OO starts and I can do whatever I want. I also have some files created and saved a couple of days ago ( because OO used to work normally then) but clicking on them now , I get: KDEINIT couldn't launch /home/billy/openoffice etc etc. I used the repair option in OO but no change. Anybody knows what's going on here? -- Greetings from /bill at 169 west , 19 south. Disclaimer: Any errors in spelling, tact, or fact are transmission errors."

Bill, If you are using your old settings for OO, this could be the problem. After doing the 9.0 install and moving over my backups, OO 1.1 acted strange for me also. It created a new folder, so I had both openoffice.org.1.1.0 and 1.1! I forgot what I did beyond that to get things going though. What you might do is delete the config file, .sversionrc, from your home and remove the 1.1 or any other openoffice folders, then restart your OO to get a new setup.

I have the following : OO.org 1.0.1 OO.org 1.1 OO.org 1.1 old According to Kpackage I have installed on Nov 19 ( that's when I upgraded to 9.0) OO.org 1.1 -43

I'm a bit reluctant to remove anything because now I can still get on to it but if I remove.............? Appreciate your help. Anymore suggestions? -- Greetings from /bill at 169 west , 19 south. Disclaimer: Any errors in spelling, tact, or fact are transmission errors."

Start openoffice from the console and have a look at the error messages. That way you at least know where you should start to look. -- Meije Oppenhuizen, Utrecht Dejar de ser pobre, es la esperanza de todos. Vota SP.

Hi Meije The only thing I get is : Command not found.
perhaps you are not using the correct command. ie: OpenOffice-path/soffice My install is: ~/OpenOffice.org/soffice -- Patrick Shanahan Registered Linux User #207535 http://wahoo.no-ip.org @ http://counter.li.org

When I try this I get, no such file or directory. I can start OO when I go to Kpackage>>OpenOffice.org>>File list and click on /opt/OpenOffice.org/program. -- Greetings from /bill at 169 west , 19 south. Disclaimer: Any errors in spelling, tact, or fact are transmission errors."

Meije said for you to open from the console, not point-&-click. Open a console (xterm,etc) and: wiswp@niue.nu:~> /opt/OpenOffice.org/program/soffice key enter then report the text generated below the command that you gave. -- Patrick Shanahan Registered Linux User #207535 http://wahoo.no-ip.org @ http://counter.li.org

Thanks Patrick. I had it already fixed. I put a /soffice icon in the taskbar and OO comes up in one second. And when I tried your suggestion, that came up in seconds as well. I still have the problem that when I save something in OO, I can't restart the program by clicking on that file. I get , KDEInit couldn't launch /home/ billy/OpenOffice.org1.1/program/scalc' I can access the file when OO is running and using ctrl O. Strange? -- Greetings from /bill at 169 west , 19 south.
