whitis, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better. However, your crash report is missing. Please follow these instructions to have apport report a new bug about your crash that can be dealt with by the automatic retracer. Assuming your using Openjdk, may execute at the Terminal: sudo apt-get -y install openjdk-6-dbg libreoffice-dbg uno-libs3-dbg ure-dbg && sudo service apport start force_start=1
If you are running the Ubuntu Stable Release you might need to enable apport in /etc/default/apport and restart. Now open your file manager, navigate to your /var/crash directory and open the crash report you wish to submit. If this fails you will have to open a terminal and file your report with 'ubuntu-bug /var/crash/_my_crash_report.crash' where _my_crash_report.crash is the crash you would like to report. If you get an error that you aren't allowed to access this report you will have to file it with 'sudo ubuntu-bug /var/crash/_my_crash_report.crash'. Please post to this bug either: + the crash report bug hyperlink, + or comment here that no crash report was generated and mark the Status back to Confirmed.

A general error occurred while accessing your central configuration. Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Binary package hint: libreoffice localc OR lodraw OR libreoffice ETC. You get the following popup: "The application cannot be started. A general error occurred while accessing your central configuration. " Afterwards, you get the following on the tty: [Java framework] Error in function createSettingsDocument (elements.cxx). javaldx failed! Running as root this doesn't happen. Upgrading to the latest did not help. This same message seems to be plauging people with various different causes. Stupid message. Which central configuration are you trying to access and how. I have no ~/.config/.libreoffice-whatever I do have a ~/.openoffice.org and ~/.openoffice.org2 directories, with correct ownership. dbus is running, though it had problems earlier (but if it wasn't running ubuntu-bug would have died). gnome-settings-daemon has been restarted. I have not intentionally installed any "extensions".
