Hi,

On the user forum it occurs several times per month.
The list box of availlable JREs should not include 64-bit JREs.
It should have a label such as "Suitable 32-bit Java Runtimes on this
system:" plus an additional [Help] button, tool-tip and everything that
helps to resolve the situation without asking someone else for help. As
far as I know, help contents are partially platform specific anyway.
I don't know if possible, but there should be a one-click hyperlink to a
32-bit JRE. The official Oracle link to a manual download goes as far as
> http://www.java.com/de/download/manual.jsp

Oh, and I suppose it should (and could) be an ordinary list box without
any radio buttons.

This is a localized version (/de/ German) of the manual download page
where the user needs to know that the second link [Windows Offline]
http://javadl.sun.com/webapps/download/AutoDL?BundleId=111687 is the one
to download but NOT [Windows Online] and NOT [Windows Offline 64-bit].
Of course, the BundleID changes with every Java update.
And yes, this is Java8 and it works well although AOO specifies Java7.
IMHO, a hyperlink on a help page leading to the English
http://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp together with a localized
hint to download and install the 32-bit JRE labeled "Windows Offline"
could improve the situtation.

The feeds for 4.0.0, 4.0.1, and 4.1.0 are now ready to be put in
place. I double checked the languages with what was actually
distributed for these versions, so hopefully all is well. But anyone
can take a look.

See attached in: https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=126612

And a big thank you to Aivaras Stepukonis for pointing out missing
languages in the 4.1.1 to 4.1.2 feed and providing a new feed file.

I plan on committing the remaining feeds on Wed, Nov. 4, unless
there is an issue with that.

Almost right, but not ready yet, since they still miss the latest 
updates by Aivaras.


The correct version must have:
- Lithuanian and not Lituanian
- Link to http://www.openoffice.org/lt/download
- Link to http://www.openoffice.org/pt/download

In short, you already applied the right corrections for 4.1.1 with

http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/openoffice/updates-site/trunk/aoo411/check.Update?r1=1711854=1712182_format=h

but the corresponding fixes still need to be done on the 4.1.0 -> 4.1.2 
feed (and probably to the other two too) as currently attached to the issue.



I plan on committing the remaining feeds on Wed, Nov. 4, unless
there is an issue with that.


Even if they go online as they are, the number of users on 4.1.0 and 
earlier versions is hopefully very low. But it would be good to fix all 
feeds.


Even better, as I suggested in 
https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=126612#c1 it would be best to 
script generation of these feeds since there is high redundancy in the 
files and this would make maintenance easier.

  Andrea.

​Ok, these are comments that already existed but I will change the
spelling...

​I'm not quite understanding this last comment. Please see the update feed
already committed you refer to.​

​The native lang urls are not directly referenced in the update feed. I'm
not all that familiar with the actual update mechanism, so I'm not sure how
a change from what is specified now to urls as you indicate would affect
the process.

​ah! I actually found a generation script for this at:
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/openoffice/devtools/genUpdateFeed/

but have not tried to use it.

In this case, mostly it was just a matter of replacing old versions numbers
with new ones on 4 files so not too bad. How we lost the two languages
initially I don't know.
