Hello, OpenOffice has worked wonderfully for me for some time now, until just yesterday. I do not use openoffice regularly so I not sure which update caused the problem.
On both these versions: 2.0.1-r1 and 2.0.2-r2 I get the same problem: ooffice2 lauches the apps just fine. When I go to save a document as a '.doc' file I get a Sorry-OpenOffice popup window that locks up my entire KDE session. The popup error message is: " Could not find mine type application/octet-stream" I can move the mouse cursor around the screen but everything else is lock up. I have to ssh into the system from a remote machine to recovery the desktop.... re emerging openoffice, either one of the above versions does not fix the problem. I launch ooffice2 at the command line with: 'ooffice2' I get this error message, twice: 'kdeui (kdelibs): ERROR: No such XML file /dev/null kdeui (kdelibs): ERROR: No such XML file /dev/null' and ooffice2 hangs launch. kde-base/kdelibs: Installed: 3.4.3-r1 3.5.2-r4 When I launch ooffice2 with 'ooffice2 &' it successfully launches and I can create and input data to files. I only have problems when I use 'save' or 'save as'. /dev/null has these permissions: crw-rw---- 1 root 1, 3 Jan 20 05:05 /dev/null changing permissions to: crw-rw-rw- 1 root 1, 3 Jan 20 05:05 /dev/null does not help..... ideas?
