Dear all, We're trying to setup the oood.py deamon. See http://udk.openoffice.org/python/oood/
It assumes that you use OOo 1.1.x, we're using 2.0 though. First part of the oood installation is the setup OOo for multi-user installation. Installation steps for OOo 1.1.x are: /usr/local/OpenOffice.org1.1.0/setup -net /usr/local/OpenOffice.org1.1.0/setup -d /home/oood/ooo1.1_srvXX and edit .sversionrc (see attacht email below which gave me this answer, email dated 10-2003). However, this doesn't work for OpenOffice.org2.0. (it doesn't have the setup in the openoffice/program directory) How to install oood.py in OOo 2.0? Thanks, Mathieu ps.

I have played around a little bit with this. One needs to pass the file-url instead of the system path on command line. Additionally, there is a problem with the -userid switch (at least for me) as soon as more than one office is started (see http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=22356 ). This can be workarounded by using the -env:UserInstallation=file:///export/servers/ooo1.1_srv01 switch. However, the feature in general works great :-).
