RE: [S.u.S.E. Linux] word processing (y II)
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1
First off, thanks everyone for your responses, I got StarOffice3.1 from a CD Distribution which came with a magazine. The distr. is
RH
5.0 based, and it included various files for StarO 3.1 (tar.gz'ed) and an install script.
Now, I ran the script (instalar) and I got StarO (installed?) on /opt/StarOffice-3.1. It also gave me a list of commands (scal3, schart3, sdraw3, simage3, smath3, swriter3) and a warn: To execute, type from an xterm.
Tried to run swriter3 from the prompt... but didn't work. Then tried to run a setup command within the above mentioned path and got this: StarOffice3.1 Installation Tool - -X11TransSocket UNIXConnect: Can't connect: errno = 111 could not open display
Then tried opening the x-windows, and found the prog there... but couldn't execute it: The StarOffice3.1 script /root/.sd.sh is missing. Normally this means that StarOffice is not installed or configured for this user. Check this fact please. I'm aborting now.
Ok, I've seen a "sd.sh" (and another *.bsh, or so) file within /opt/StarOffice-3.1 what's the ".sd.sh" (notice the starting dot ".") about? is it a link or s'thing? how am I supposed to install a program which doesn't come with the distribution?
Thanks in advance,
Horacio.
If I remember correctly, you must type:
source ~/.sd.sh (this assumes that the current user has this file in their home directory, otherwise use the correct path) /opt/StarOffice-3.1/bin/swriter3
I don't recall how to automate this, but it was a common problem.
That
will hopefully help until someone gives the correct answer. ;-)
mc
I type "~/.sd.sh" from the command line and get: "bash: /root/.sd.sh: No such file or directory" Perhaps I should add that I don't see ".sd.sh" nor ".sd.csh" in any directory. Then I try "/opt/StarOffice-3.1/linux-x86/bin/swriter3" (which is the path where "swriter3" is located) and get: "_X11TransSocketUNIXConnect: Can't connect: errno: 11 could not open display" I've been looking for help at the StarOffice URL, but nothing is available (except for a small faq). Can anyone help me configuring StarOffice3.1? Gracias, Horacio. PS.

O.K., try cp /opt/StarOffice-3.1/sd.sh ~/.sd.sh that may work. Also, look for a setup program for the users. Some Linux programs need to be installed onto the server by root and then installed by the users that want to use it to set up their personal files. Even if your machine is a standalone, it can act like a server and client rolled into one. I would assume you did the install as root, so try installing again as a user. hope this doesn't sound too complicated :-) mc -- To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e
Not sure if it will help but check out this site and cruise for details on 3.1 <A HREF="http://ww.waldherr.org/soffice4.shtml"><A HREF="http://ww.waldherr.org/soffice4.shtml</A">http://ww.waldherr.org/soffice4.shtml</A</A>> maybe you will find something there. In case you need it star4.0 is out and the new update was supposed to be out 17 May at ftp.staroffice.de but its not there. If anyone has info on this pls post. Also, Corel will be bringing out WP8.0 for Linux very shortly and it will be made available for 99.00 US...for those who are interested in commercial Linux software only.
