Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 1458
New Installation Core Dumps on Solaris 8
Last modified: 2003-09-08 16:53:51 UTC
My first down load of the Open Office version. I down loaded the three patches from Sun that the installation notes defined as being needed. I ran setup and when it could not find a version of Java that it wanted, java1.2, that it wanted I down loaded from Sun j2sdk1_3_1. The rest of the installation went without any issues. Installation was done as root. When I run soffice from my account I get the following: hemlock: $ /usr/local/openoffice60/program/soffice Unable to retrieve application configuration data: Cannot locate Configuration: Invalid user installationAbort(coredump)
Created attachment 444 [details] truss file for soffice
It's not possible to make an installation as user 'a' and use it as user 'b', every user has his own configuration files in his home directory, needed by OOo to start -> every user has to make his own installation. OOo shouldn't abort n this case, this is fixed in the next version.
Seems to work.
