Well, he could try to install Java (8)?

than I (you) need help from others as I've no idea at the moment what
could be checked next.
@All:
Has anyone more hints? Thanks.
Last resort:
There is always the possibility to start from scratch with a new AOO
profile. But that means you would loose all your settings that you
have done up to know (customized toolbars, menus, keyboard shortcuts,
see menu "Tools - Customize" or in German: "Extras - Anpassen" plus
some more settings in other locations, e.g., "Format - AutoCorrext -
AutoCorrect Optionen").
So, it depends on you if you want to try it.

OK, a possible root cause less.
/Question:/
/You suggested, I should try to start Writer from Terminal./
/How can I do this? I am really not so familiar with all these
commands./
that should be simple. You just open the terminal and enter the
following command:
soffice
If this results in an unknown command, then please use it with
the full
path. It depends where you have installed it in your system. E.g.,
/opt/openoffice4/program/soffice
The output until the error message appears could be helpful. Fore
this
purpose start OpenOffice and then open a document that shows that
error
message. After that please post the complete text here.
Thanks

do you have macros inside the document? Please have a look via
the menu
"Tools - Macros - Organize Macros - Basic" (German: "Extras -
Makros -
Makros verwalten - Basic")?
If so, it's up to you to decide if you still need them - then
you have
to adjust parts to run correctly. Then there is good chance
that the
document will open without error messages. Or to delete them.
Please make sure you have made a backup before deleting things
that you
still need.
