I have (tried to) install so5.2 today, and get a similar result.
Mind, the installation procedure gave me several error messages, refering
to files that could not be installed (bad CRC for compressed data) but the
final result is the same, cannot start SO, cannot re-install it as it
refuses to do so, claiming it IS installed and I must un-install before
re-installing; but to add insult to injury, the ssetup proc that shoud
uninstall it tell me it cannot run, as it is not installed.
Was it developped by,saboteurs from Redmont ?

I dont have JRE, but I have Adabas, and the problem seems the same.

Anyone knows of a Star-Office list somewhere ?
