So, I CD-d there and did a 'touch freebsd-local.sh' and it all seems happy now. Maybe I missed a step that should have put it there, and I have been negligent in pursuing OpenOffice docs, but it's working so... There was one more file that it wanted and an empty file seemed to make it happy, but I can't remember the name right now. After doing a touch on both of them, things came up and ran fine as far as I can tell. I am not a very demanding user of those kind of office packages so I may be eliminating some niceties by cheating like this that I just haven't notices. There is probably something in the docs about those files, so, if all else fails read the instructions... jerry > > Thanks, > Eamon ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

I bet you've took local. Please try the other and see if that helps. If you rename the oo dir then this will proberbly force a resetup. -- Alex Articles based on solutions that I use: http://www.kruijff.org/alex/index.php?dir=docs/FreeBSD/ ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Hi, This is probably a simple problem, but can someone please tell me what's happening here? $ ./soffice .: Can't open /usr/home/eamon/OpenOffice.org1.1.0/program/freebsd-local.sh: No such file or directory $ I'm running FBSD 4.8 on a Compaq Evo N410c.
