I still have 2.0.2. It uses a shell script called openoffice.org-2.0 in
/usr/bin
To open a spreadsheet, I use
openoffice.org-2.0 -calc /home/terry/Current/Work/Test.ods
Do you have that shell script? It is probably (?) better to use that
than soffice. :-\
Ah. The executable in 2.1 is evidently linked to the wrong file:
http://qa.openoffice.org/servlets/ReadMsg?list=dev&msgNo=7315
Another user reports:

To fix it here, I edited /usr/bin/openoffice.org-2.1 to read:
Code:
#!/bin/sh
exec /opt/openoffice.org2.1/program/soffice "$@"

Hi Terry,
I tried it again to reinstall OO 2.1 again using the guide in the link
you transmitted.
I erased the application via rpm, removed the app.-path an the users
oo-directory with 'rm -rf /opt/openoffice* /home/user/.openoffice*'
and started a new installation with
rpm -Uvh --replacepkgs --replacefiles /tmp/OO*/RPMS/*.rpm
After that I took a look at my memory-bar, but this is fixed well.
Starting soffice from console with a simple spreadsheet, filling in
the first value, hit <RETURN> and ... CRASH
No output on console, just the possibility to recover. But the
recovered file doesn't start because there are values in the
spreadsheet . Shit ...
Any other ideas?

Hi all,
I've some problems using calc in version 2.0.4 and 2.1
>From one day to another I was not able to use 2.0.4. When I open an

spreadsheet (odt, sxc or excel) with values inside the whole
application
crashes. The same happens when I open an empty sheet and fill the
table with
values. After inserting the first value and hitting <RETURN> ...
Using 2.0.3 it is still working.
OS: SuSE 10.0
Windowmanager: several (Ice, windowmaker, KDE, Gnome)
When I start calc from a console there are no messages :-(
I tried to solve the problem in several ways:
- delete the whole application via rpm
- delete the files in /opt/openoffice.org2.?
- install the application via rpm -ivh --force *rpm
without success.
In the appendix there is a crash-report I got.

Hi, Max
I saw your post in the forum.
I understand that the procedure suggested in the Setup Guide for
cleaning your system of any traces of old installations is
effective. I suggest that you clean your system using *that*
procedure before making a fresh install.
If you get error messages about missing dependencies, I suggest that
you install whatever libraries are required rather than use
--nodeps. If that becomes too onerous (as I know it can), you may
have to be content with using your distro's version and install it
with Smart.
The Setup Guide:
http://documentation.openoffice.org/setup_guide2/2.x/en/SETUP_GUIDE.pdf
http://documentation.openoffice.org/setup_guide2/2.x/en/SETUP_GUIDE_A4.pdf
BTW, the rpm man page (or some other rpm document I've seen) suggests
using -Uvh even when making a fresh installation. The switches
--replacepkgs and --replacefiles are useful if you want to reinstall.
The /.openoffice* folder in /home can be a source of problems. Very
unlikely in your case because version 2.0.3 is working
satisfactorily. You could test the possibility.
Greetings
