Does anyone have an idea of why running this with 'sudo' works but not
without? I removed OO v2.4.2 and reinstalled it my user directory without
sudo. I removed my ~/.openoffice* directories after install. I also ensured
the directories where file I/O is occurring are owned by my user account and
are writeable.
Another oddity is trying to pull up the macro security dialog locks up
openoffice unless I start soffice with sudo.
Any help understanding these user-mode limitations would be greatly
appreciated.
I don't have any experience with running the headless mode, but I
frequently install OOo versions as user. I don't know how you're setup
looks in detail. I always use 'alien -t' to convert the .rpm or .deb
packages to .tgz packages, then I unpack them with a little for loop
into a subdirectory. All this I do without ever being root (which was
the reason I've done it the first time, later I've simply used it to
play with different OOo versions without making a mess in my system
setup). Works like a charm for me.
Good luck
Arthur
