Hi Marco,

I don't have any direct experience of oood, but I do have extensive 
experience of running OOo on the server with our own product 3BTransform.

There are lots of reasons why OOo might stop. The best way to find out 
what is going on is to use a VNC X server instead of Xvfb. That way you 
can connect to it and watch as OOo starts up. Often the reason is 
trivial (e.g. the installer starts up) but, as you say, it can be 
infuriatingly hard to find.

You may need to tweak the soffice shell-script so that it exec's 
soffice.bin instead of just calling it.

Running OOo via strace can also help if you are prepared to wade through 
very large log files.

If you want a pre-packaged product for running OOo on the server then 
check out 3BTransform on our website, or the live demo at 
http://trial.3bview.com.

I hope this helps,
