As a test, would it be possible for a Mac developer to rebuild with the
source code for RC5 but the process and libraries from RC4, and/or the
other way round? That will tell us whether the problem is a source code
change or a build process change.

Hi Jim,
I am on macOS Sierra and do not see the issues in RC4.
With RC4 -
Sorry a typo - with RC5 I see:
(1) I get the little general error dialog.
(2) I don’t see any terminal output after starting from Terminal.
(3) While the error is up the lock file .~lock.<filename># has been created
with a length of 129

<file:///Users/davewave/Library/Application%20Support/OpenOffice/4>;
(4) I also get the error if I start like so:
/Applications/OpenOffice.app/Contents/MacOS/soffice -view ODF-Test.odt
The window is open but the background is grey when the error is displayed.
There is nothing obvious in a diff between RC4 and RC5 on the Mac. There are
differences for versions and a large number of the dylib, zip and jars do
differ.
Regards,
Dave

Assuming AOO is installed in /Applications:

should do it.

Can you run openoffice4 from a terminal and report the messages?
Rory
I don't know terminal very well and do not know how to do that. I can
follow instruction
for using terminal if you have the time to give them to me.
I can't answer with any certainty for Mac, but my understanding, based on
something I paid little attention to (no need), is that the current Mac
operating system is a form of linux.
macOS is derived from Unix. Many, not all commands are similar to Linux
Open it and type "openoffice4" (no quotes). OO should then open and run and
give some possibly helpful diagnostics about what it is not finding, or what has
happened. These will be helpful to developers debugging.
Doesn't work. Needs more specific command. I will investigate later and try to
get more
information. Problem occurs on both my Macs so isn't specific to macOS High
Sierra, which i
upgraded this Mac to recently.
I cannot help further - no experience on Macs. Perhaps some Mac-using list
member can assist.
Rory
