Discoveries using The NEW Release of LibreOffice.


 I have found something very interesting in LIbreOffice 5.2.4.2 (Newly
Released).  The program still Terminates with the error messages.

Maybe this will help someone identify the problem. I'm running Mac OS 10.12.2.
After you drag the "LibreOffice.app" Icon  to your applications folder the
first time, LibreOffice will execute correctly.

Here's where it get Weird..

The program runs correctly the first time it is launched. However, if you quit
the application and try to bring up the program again, you receive the error
message ("Ignore" "Report" "Reopen").

Here's what I found and LibreOffice application will work every time:

If I go into the MacOS folder in the Contents folder and Click on "soffice
Exec", the application FIRST  executes the Terminal.app under
/applications/Utilities, and after a small delay, it executes the LibreOffice
application.

The application can now be used normally, but ONLY if you keep the "Terminal"
application running. The second you terminate the Terminal.app, LibreOffice
terminates.

Somewhere in the "LibreOffice.app" there is code killing the Terminal.app.
Maybe it's supposed to be running in the background and a pointer in the
application terminates the Terminal.app when you select "Quit LibreOffice" from
the file menu.

BottomLine:

Closing the Terminal.app, under the Utilities folder, will terminate the entire
"LIbreOffice" program. (The Terminal Window remains open)

I don't know if I'm explaining this so anyone can understand it, because I'm
not (by profession), a programmer. However, I can see somewhere in the compiled
version of "soffice" Exec file, the script is telling the Terminal.app to exec
first, THEN to execute LIbreOffice.

Here's how I now have to use this application:

1. I execute "soffice" from the MacOS folder (MUST be executed from this
folder)
2. Wait for the Terminal.app to execute and bring up the Terminal Window
3. Keep the Terminal.app running.
4. After a short time, LibreOffice comes up "Normally"
5. Using the "Quit LIbreOffice" on the menu file, I can see the Terminal.app
being told to exit and LibreOffice ends.

If the Terminal.app is not running, LibreOffice will crash every time.

I hope this helps.

I can duplicate this procedure repeatedly and LibreOffice works using the above
method.

Please let me know if you need further clarification.
