[opensuse] LibreOffice Samba shares
Hi, I have reinstalled 13.1 on my computer due to a hard drive failure. Since the reinstall LibreOffice will not open files from a smb share! It tells me I can only open local files. I have been able to do this since forever! I am using the default libreoffice that comes with opensuse. Very frustrating seeing as all my documents are saved on my NAS I have a laptop with a fresh install with the exact same issue. I also have a laptop running ubuntu which has no problem opening libreoffice files over smb. Can anyone help with this? -- Paul Groves -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
I suspect you don't have write authority on the smb drive for some reason or another. Try copying some random file to the drive to find out. Permission problem probably. On 27 March, 2014 1:55:17 PM MST, Paul Groves <paul.groves.787@gmail.com> wrote:

The smb share is guest access only. Therefore all users have rwx access. I can confirm this works because in order to edit my ods file I had to copy to my home folder and edit it then copy it back to the smb folder. Searching online it has been suggested that Dolphin is not automatically mounting smb shared when they are accessed with KDE 4.9. Does anyone know if this is the case, and if so how to resolve it? -- Paul Groves -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

-- Paul Groves Hi Are you opening it with file association in Dolphin? Try narrowing it down. Can you access the ods if you mount it somewhere real? e.g. mount -t cifs //server/share /mnt -ousername=paul,password=****** KDE doesn't do a proper mount I don't think. HTH L x
