--- Comment #39 from [email protected] ---
Alex How can this be a duplicate? I can reproduce the problem and the solution
every time. I'm running MACOS X 10.12.2 and LibreOffice 5.2.4 (Newly Released).
These are the steps I go through every time and if I bring it up this way it
works.
Closing the Terminal.app, under the Utilities folder, will terminate the entire
"LIbreOffice" program, but 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 in the Contents folder
2. I Wait for the Terminal.app to execute and bring up the Terminal Window
3. I keep the Terminal.app running paying attention to the messages printed in
the window.
4. After a short time Maybe 5 second) 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.
Also, if you try and execute LibreOffice in the Applications Folder, it will
crash every time.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
Below is what I saw on the "Terminal" Window as LibreOffice executes from the
MAC OS directory using the soffice Exec file.
"Last login: Sat Jan 7 13:12:59 on console
-bash: PATH: command not found
-bash: PATH: command not found
/Applications/LibreOffice.app/Contents/MacOS/soffice ; exit;
Macintosh:~ millersranch$ /Applications/LibreOffice.app/Contents/MacOS/soffice
; exit;"
Below are the results returned and printed to the Terminal window screen after
you've pressed "Quit LibreOffice" in the application.
logout

[Process completed]
Please NOTE: After the [Process completed] statement, the Terminal App stays
open. You have to close it manually.
This Bug reports something about the "User Profile" and something about a
"Switch" being set to "ON". I don't know where this switch is and I have
deleted previous User profiles from the LibreOffice/4/user directory. If there
is a "Patch" for this, I don't know where to find it. Seeing how this Bug is
also happening under MacOS 10.12.2 and continues under LibreOffice 5.2.4.1,
tells me this can't be the same problem as reported here. I don't need to
change a "Switch" or my "User Profile" to use the application as described
above. This problem appears to be a PATH statement problem as indicated by the
Terminal Results:
-bash: PATH: command not found
-bash: PATH: command not found
I can use the application this way without changing any of the things mentioned
in this Bug report. I don't have any stack trace/backtrace software to print
out the errors or how the program is executing. I just know it works every time
when I apply the procedure above. I will continue to use it this way, until
someone figures out why the "LibreOffice.app doesn't work from the Applications
directory.
