--- Comment #2 from John H. Lindsay <[email protected]> ---
My miseration is about the .wpi installer for Apache Open 
Office 4.1.1.1 .  There are 3 bugs, related in that they 
all pertain to installing  AOO v. 4.1.1.1 for OS/2 and eCS 
using the .wpi on my OS/2 (eCS v. 2.2 B2) system, with the 
first quite like issue 121481 for Linux.  

While I understand that AOO is supposed to be installable 
in any directory in one's system (at least in any drive in 
one's system) I find that the .wpi display for the 
selection of the drive is greyed out and fixed at 
<boot drive>:PROGRAMS.  In my case, I have 3 drives on one 
disk, K:, L:, and M: for the OS/2 / eCS operating system 
(previous version as backup, current version -- in use, and 
next version while I am building it) that I reuse cyclicly, 
and I try to put all the 'system utilities' and really 
necessary stuff like OpenOffice on N: on the same disk for 
use in any of the operating systems.  This restriction 
makes it necessary to have installed at least 2 copies of 
AOO, instead of the just 1 that I would prefer.

The installation completes with a success message and no 
warning, information or error messages, but (a) the files 
are stored in a subfolder of M:PROGRAMS called simply 
Folder , just as in the case of any newly created folder.  
No message indicates this.  And (b), no desktop icon is 
created as is chosen.  I have checked the requirements for 
installation.

Starting the quickstart program fails at once with a small 
grey error message window with the heading 'Unable to start 
Apache OpenOffice!' and the body: 'Execution failed! 
Contact technical support.  Return code: 2  Failing module: 
ICUUC42' and an 'OK' button which, when pressed, only 
causes the little error message window to close.  

Any clues what all is up ?  

John.
