Steve Scrimpshire Posted September 22, 2004 Report Share Posted September 22, 2004 (edited) Anytime I attempt to run any OOo component from the CLI, I get: Installation of OpenOffice.org 1.1.3 failed This happens with the MDK RPM and with the tarball downloaded from OOo, which compiles and installs with no errors. Any thoughts? Nothing in /var/log/messages, /var/log/Xorg.*.log or ~/.xsession-errors Edited September 26, 2004 by Steve Scrimpshire Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DragonMage Posted September 24, 2004 Report Share Posted September 24, 2004 Have you try removing the .OpenOffice directory and retry the command? Anyway isn't the tarball from OOo is different in way of installation? That is, you have to do net installation first then local installation before you can run it? And I think the command for the tarball version is soffice, not oo<whatever> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Scrimpshire Posted September 26, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 26, 2004 (edited) Tried all of that. It turned out to be an invalid font. Once I cleaned that up, all is well. Unfortunately, there was nothing but the vague "Installation of OpenOffice-1.1.2 failed" and I had to figure it out with strace and other tools.
