My answer may not be timely, but, I just recently had this problem. I
worked around it by:
Open OOo and tell it to NOT recover the document.
OOo then hung after opening a blank window, so, I killed it.
If I started OOo, it hung, so, I started it by double clicking on an OOo
document.
Seems a bit silly, but, it worked for me.

My Openoffice refuses to open.
It started with Calc. It needed to recover the document
Whenever I open a calc programme, the Document Recovery Window comes up.
I press Start Recovery, it gets to work and "Successfully Recovered"
appears. The trouble begins when I press Next >.
Then a window - Runtime Error1 - appears - abnormal program termination.
I have now got 5 programs waiting recovery. They all recover only to
be terminated again.
I can't run any calc programmes on Windows, and I have a similar
problem when I switch over to Ubuntu.
And now none of my Openoffice programmes will run, including writer.
As I attempt to open them an increasing number of* .-lock.* icons appear.
Would un-installing and re-installing, or downloading Openoffice again
help?
