This problem is not related to OOo at all. OOo needs to create temporary files.
By default, it uses the directory set in the $TEMP environment variable, but you
can configure this also in Tools -> Options -> OpenOffice.org -> Paths ->
Temporary Files. If neither is set, the setting defaults to /tmp.
According to both, the Single UNIX Specification, Version 3 (IEEE 1003.1 and
ISO/IEC 9945), and the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard (FHS), the /tmp directory
has to be made available for creating temporary files. Writing to that directory
can fail for several reasons (think NFS), but it is not the duty of OOo to check
whether there is a device, or that it is writeable, or that there is
sufficiently space on it, because OOo is not an operating system.
If your root partition (or the partition containing /tmp) tends to be used at
100% (although this must not happen), make the $TEMP variable pointing to
somewhere else, or configure the paths in your OOo accordingly, but please don't
blame OOo for needing a place where it can save its data!
In case you are only looking for a better error message, please have a look at
issue 95243.
Closing INVALID.
