Description Unknown 2003-03-27 14:34:10 UTC 
Running simpress on a powerpoint presentation as non-root user
when OO is installed as root into /usr/lib/openoffice

I got the following error on exit:

 Error saving the document
 file:///usr/lib/openoffice/user/basic/script.xlc/:
 General Error
 General input/output error

This is presumably because Open Office 1.1 beta isn't aware
that it is being run as a regular (non-root) user, and hence
can't expect to be able to write in to the /usr/lib/ area.

Instead should write to user area or to shared area (e.g. /tmp)

Reassigned to Christian.
Comment 2 Olaf Felka 2003-03-31 09:47:00 UTC 
This feature isn't provided by OOo 1.x. We are planning this for
upcomming versions.
In your case you have to install OOo for every user, e.g. making  a
-net installation and a workstation installation as local user.
