Hi :)
I think people are trying to steer away from java so it wouldn't surprise me if 
GnuLinux distros, even gateway ones started to avoid it in default installs.  
Nicely found!
Congrats and regards from
Tom :)

Thanks a lot for reply and tip, Tom! I had found the answer. Java plugin for
LibreOffice had not been installed by default in the Ubuntu 12.04
distribution (why, actually?). Oh, my carelessness :)

Hi,
How is this issue related to Java? I can use bibliographies with Java 
being disabled.

Is your database a Java database?

I'm glad you found a solution. In any case it is not acceptable that LO
should crash. It should be stable enough to simply show a self-explaining
error message.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: Bibliography crash

Hi :)
True but in this case it was a 3rd party app produced by people that have set 
themselves against us.  Hopefully now they have given OpenOffice.org to Apache 
Foundation they might not be quite so obtuse.  Java is still likely to continue 
to be unreliable but there is less chance of that being in a targeted way.  I 
wonder if they ever did manage anything like that.  I honestly doubt it.  But 
that still leaves it as a 3rd party app over which we have no control.  
Regards from
Tom :)

[libreoffice-users] Native MySQL-Connector


Just out of curiosity...
I simply have not been able to do anything for the MySQL/MariaDB
native connector. Has anything happened in the past 2 to 3 months
or - are there any known efforts in the foreseeable future in this
respect?
I have been using the ODBC-connection under Linux/Mint and Debian/
Wheezy but is not REALLY production-ready. Of course - under
Windows/Vista and LO 3.5.2-rc1 the native connector works
satisfactorily - at least in my opinion.

Which has always seemed strange to me because it worked for me on both
Ubuntu 10.04 and 11.10. As I said in my other mail, I'm also going to
try on Linux Mint 12 (LO 3.4.4, I think), and Bodhi Linux (LO 3.5) and

...but it's still based, illogically in my view, on dynamically
generated frames, rather than the more obvious tables. Labels are
tabular after all and this frame fetish has frustrated me for some years.

For anyone interested, I made a set of tabular templates, both A4 and
American Letter sizes some years ago and they have served me well. The
only drawback is in replicating (or alternatively deleting) enough pages
to meet output requirements. It would be a fairly trivial exercise to
program this as a replacement for the frame based system.


Thanks for your work on these templates.
There is a nice advantage for the regular labels: the option to
synchronise all labels with changes on the first label.


Hello Cor,

many thanks for your response, despite you not having seen my template 
set. ;-) I created them for my own use, but then decided that they might 
enjoy wider usage so I wrote a simple tutorial and made the package 
available as a .zip archive.


With regard to your comments about synchronisation, this is a coding 
function and not inherently dependant upon the frame basis, rather than 
the more logical table approach. If the code was written in 'C' rather 
than 'C++' I might be tempted to fix it, but I can't stand over-verbose 
languages and avoid the latter like the plague. :-)

[libreoffice-users] Uninstalling not fully installed WriterTools extension

2012-03-28 Thread peedysworld

I have both Libreoffice 3.4.6.  3.5.1 installed on my Windows 7 Home 64  
bit desktop.


Recently, I tried to install the extension WriterTools 1.9.1.

However, even though the extension appears in Extension Manager in both  
versions of LO, it did not fully install. Thus, is not operational.


Now, I can't get it t fully install - nor can I get extension manager to  
uninstall it.


I've contacted the author of this extension days ago but have received no  
reply.


Does anyone have any idea how I can somehow manually uninstall this  
extension?

Re: [libreoffice-users] Uninstalling not fully installed WriterTools extension

I have Writers Tools and it works with 3.4.5 on Ubuntu 64-bit 10.04LTS.

I wonder if it is something to do with having both 3.4.6 [beta?] and
3.5.1 installed at the same time. I run it as well with XP and Vista.

I wonder also if you could take the LO user data folder and rename it.
Then it should show that the items listed in the Extension Manager is no
longer there, or most of them. It does for Ubuntu when I rename the
.libreoffice folder. Then install the Writers Tools extension again.

Where did you get the file? Was it downloaded properly/uncorrupted?

install one of them.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Not installing



Check if you have a Quick Start option installed/enabled for your 
taskbar.  Check your taskbar for a Quickstart icon for LO.  End it 
before you try the next install of LO.  Be sure that you go through LO's 
options to disable the Quichstart option from coming back.


If you do not see it on the taskbar, maybe look in the Install/Remove 
option in Control Panel for that.


Which version of LO have you installed before on your computer?

I have not installed 3.5.x on my Vista [32-bit] laptop, but I have 
installed 3.4.5[?] on it.  I never enable the Quickstart option, since 
it tends to give you issues when you want to upgrade the package.  The 
Quickstart option loads up at boot-time and runs in memory, EVEN when 
you do not have the main LO package running.  It gives LO a little boost 
in its load time, but tends to not be worth the hassles.  I never check 
the Quickstart options for any Windows packages I tend to install.

Hi Alex,
Thanks for the hint! I downloaded the deb-package from the Apache-OpenOffice.org
website and tried to install it with dpkg -i ...
Unfortunately it refuses to install because I have the wrong version of 
libreoffice-core
(3.3) installed according to aptitude. As mentioned before - being a glutton 
for punischment -
I installed LO 3.5.2-rc1 (again - using dpkg -i for the deb-packages downloaded 
from the LO-site).
I am not quite aware how I can still have libreoffice-core 3.3 installed after 
this, but
there you are - at least as far as aptitude is concerned. Obviously things are 
somewhat
muddled up on my Mint-system.
Regards
Heinrich

Errr, yes, it would appear so.

Have you tried :

dpkg --purge libreoffice-*

That should give your system a good clean out (including the LO you just
downloaded). Then of course, you'd have to re-install again...

Recently, I tried to install the extension WriterTools 1.9.1.

However, even though the extension appears in Extension Manager in both
versions of LO, it did not fully install. Thus, is not operational.

Now, I can't get it t fully install - nor can I get extension manager to
uninstall it.

I've contacted the author of this extension days ago but have received no
reply.

Does anyone have any idea how I can somehow manually uninstall this
extension?

[libreoffice-users] Failure to install Libre Office

2012-03-28 Thread Terry Evans


I downloaded Libre Office and tried to install it for the first time,without 
success.

Shortly after the installation started a message box popped up stating that 
Libre Office 3.5 or Libre Office 3.5 quick start should be closed. The 
installation Wizard then indicated that the installation had failed.

I would be grateful for any help or suggestions.

 I'm glad you found a solution. In any case it is not acceptable that LO

Re: [libreoffice-users] Failure to install Libre Office

Hi :)
Do you already have a version of LibreOffice or OpenOffice, Lotus Symphony, Neo 
Office or other office suite installed on your machine?  If so then open it and 
try 

Tools - Options - errr i couldn't find it!?  I was sure it's there somewhere 
like General?

Regards from
Tom :)

[libreoffice-users] Re: LO 3.5.1 Java weirdness on OSX

Thank you, Alex.

 Hi,

 
  LO doesn't find any Java version except for one.
 I don't think it can anymore automatically (but I'm prepared to be
 proven wrong ;-)), at least not on Mac, the handling of the Java path
 was changed during 3.4.x or 3.5.x development, I seem to recall, because
 LO was having problems recognising the write system Java path.


That is too bad.  I'd like to use an updated Java since Apple is a bit slow
to update.


  I want to run a more recent version and have more recent versions of
  Java installed.
 
  But I can't add the versions of Java RE installed in
  Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines
 
  I have OpenJava 1.7.0u.jre installed in
Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines
 
  Questions:
  Why doesn't LO use the 1.6.0_31 version installed?
 
  Why can't I select to run 1.7.0u.jre from
Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines?
 
 Like I said, I think it has to do with the path changes introduced for
 Java recognition during 3.4/3.5 development (I don't exactly remember
 when this happened).

 The only thing I can think of is if you change your environment
 variables in your session bash profile or the corresponding session
 plist. You might then be able to force LO to take the Java version of
 your choice.

I checked my .profile and changed the Java_home to where the OpenJava
1.7.0u.jre is installed.
Now java -version shows the correct 1.7.0 version.

---quote---
java -version
openjdk version 1.7.0-u4-b13
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0-u4-b13-20120224)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 23.0-b16, mixed mode)
---end quote---

LibreOffice 3.5.2 still shows the 1.6.0_29.   I can't get the Options:Java
to select the newer java 1.7.0 version.  I tried to Add and Class Path
but no luck.  Shouldn't this work?

While I understand that the automatic finding of java versions on the Mac
has been problematic and been discontinued, shouldn't I be able to use
Add or Class Path to add the OpenJava 1.7.0 version?

I think that since Apple has decided to stop providing Java and is leaving
it up to the vendor, then the default install place will change to
/Library/Java from /System/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines.   In that case
how will LO find a functioning recent version of java 




 Alex

Thanks again for your help, Alex.

Cheers!
B.

2012-03-28 Thread Pedro

Assuming you are trying to install under Windows, try this solution

1) Load Task Manager (Ctrl+Shift+Esc) and End any process named soffice.exe,
soffice.bin and quickstart.exe in the Processes tab (you can sort processes
alphabetically by clicking on the Image Name column)

2) Install LibreOffice version 3.5

Re: [libreoffice-users] Uninstalling not fully installed WriterTools extension

It was either a corrupted .oxt file you tried to use or something in the
user file was giving you an issue. I have had things that downloaded 1%
of the file than ended as if it was completed properly. Mostly it was
due to overworked servers/mirrors. Use to get it many times with LO
language packs, till the mirror that I was directed to got their act
together and fixed their problems [so I was told].

I have one .oxt file in my list, I forget which one, that would not
install if I used the next version. I will be updating all my extension
files in that list for my next DVD publication, but every one listed
worked for me when I tried them out.

So that is why I gave you my link.
I know that it works, since it worked for my system.

After renaming the user data folder per your advice and using your
copy of Writer Tools I was able to install it.

Problem solved.

Thanks again.

I have Writers Tools and it works with 3.4.5 on Ubuntu 64-bit 10.04LTS.

I wonder if it is something to do with having both 3.4.6 [beta?] and
3.5.1 installed at the same time. I run it as well with XP and Vista.

I wonder also if you could take the LO user data folder and rename
it. Then it should show that the items listed in the Extension
Manager is no longer there, or most of them. It does for Ubuntu when
I rename the .libreoffice folder. Then install the Writers Tools
extension again.

Where did you get the file? Was it downloaded properly/uncorrupted?

Here is my copies. I tend to install both Tools and Extras if I
install one of them.

I also tend to install Pagination with those two as well.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: Failure to install Libre Office



I would uninstall the quickstart.exe.  The amount of time it saves for 
opening up LO is not worth the problems it tends to cause me when I am 
updating the package that uses it; be it LO, OOo, or other package that 
has a quickstart option.


Is there a problem with 3.5.x, since we are getting many of these emails?
Is quickstart now a default and not easily opted out of?
