I am installing OO 3 rc1/JRE (20080904) on a windows 2000 sp4 box (1.4ghz amd
thunderbird/512MB ram, no net access.. installed via USB key), which
previously had 2.4.1 installed. After installation, I run the program,
which, of course, asks me to import the old settings/register, etc (the
Welcome to OpenOffice 3.0 wizard). After I click 'finish', the dialog
screen simply freezes. The quickstart never appears in the system tray, and
the dialog screen never goes away. After letting it sit for 5 min or so, I
check the task manager, and see that one of the soffice binaries are running
at 99% cpu. Any thoughts on this?
I'm wondering if it is hanging on trying to find net access. Can you try
the following:
Rename the 'user' folder to x-user-x:
C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application
Data\OpenOffice.org\3\x-user-x
[Note: we rename 'user' to 'x-user-x' instead of deleting so that a
comparison can be made if the following works.]
Check from the task manager (Ctrl-Alt-Del-Task Manager) in both
Applications and Processes to make sure that no OOo applications or
processes are still running. In Processess, make sure there are no
instances of soffice or quickstart running; if so end them. Exit the
task manager.
Restart OOo from desktop icon:
1. Welcome ==> Next
2. Personal Data ==> uncheck 'Transfer personal data'
3. User name ==> obvious
4. Online Update ==> uncheck 'Check for updates automatically'
5. Registration ==> check 'I do not want to register'
Finish
See if that makes any difference please.
I have the same hang-up on step 2. WinXP Pro w/SP3'
