[libreoffice-users] Installing extensions

2013-10-14 Thread Ken Springer
Is LO at all picky about where you place downloaded extensions?  If not, 
is there a recommended location?


The help file for installing extensions doesn't mention storage 
locations at all.  And it doesn't mention anything about downloading 
from the web, except for a short blurb about repositories, which I 
presume applies only to Linux.


Oh, yea, and there's no connection to LO's extensions page from the 
extensions manager.  And the information on the extensions page is out 
of date.

[libreoffice-users] Installing Extensions.

2013-10-04 Thread Tinkerer
Using a Mac System10.8.5 and LibreOffice 4.1.2. I find I am unable to install
extension updates.
Here is an example error message:

Error while installing extension writer2epub.oxt. The error message is:
Cannot detect media-type:
file:///var/folders/5t/4xr22xm88xl2dq0059_tfzwhgp/T/QUD5Ee_/CJCszl_/YYiH3w
The extension will not be installed.

The Path for extensions should read Applications Libre Office Contents
Share Extensions.

How can I correct this as there is no Path in the Preferences Paths for
Extensions.

Tink.

Do you have the quick launch option checked/available?

For both Windows and Linux, that option causes the Extension Manager's
extension updating process to fail. 

I do not remember what the error message was for that.

Also, have you tried to open the file with LO within the file manager
instead of within LO itself?
