The attempt to load the file resulted in the following error message

Unsupported URL <file:///home/phb/..../AddressBook.ods>

Ubuntu 12.04 64 bit
Java 1.7_06 (and 05)
All was well with LibO 3.6.0 and Java 1.7_05 just prior to the upgrade,
carried out by complete removal of 3.6.0 via Synaptic and clean
installation of the "real" product, downloaded from the LibreOffice web
site via dpkg -iR
Interestingly everything is fine on a 32 bit installation!
Hi,
Since many years I use to update my office suites without removal. All
major versions (OOo 1 and 2, LibO and OOo 3) are separate applications
with separated profile folders anyway.
Any problems (if any) are related to the user profile which can be reset
by renaming a folder. Within the profile issues, the installed
extensions are the major culprit (but not the ones I use to have
installed). So I extract the downloaded archive, change to the extracted
directory/DEBS and run
sudo dpkg -i *.deb
If I want that version to be the default program with menu and
everything I change to the desktop-integration subdirectory and install
that package too.
If I do not want that version to be the default program I add a couple
of my own desktop links to the respective executables. There were times
when I had OOo 1.1.5, 2.4.3, 3.4beta, LibO 3.3 and 3.5.x installed in
parallel without any problem.
Problems that come up quite frequently on this list are not the normal
case. It is designed to be update out of the box, particularly on Linux.
Just my 2 Cents,
A.S.
