Description guyspr 2003-10-04 15:31:47 UTC
Upgraded from network installation of OOo 1.1RC2 to 1.1 network installation. 
No problems in upgrade. No problems with "client" updates on the same machine.

This installation is on a single machine with multiple users.

When run, OOo fails to start with a dialogue box:

---

OpenOffice.org cannot be started due to an error in accessing the 
OpenOffice.org configuration data.

Please contact your system administrator.

The following internal error has occurred: GetStorage, name: "No Content!

---

(Note: Missing closing quote on No Content!)

This problem appears to have occurred before as issue 12695, however now OS is 
different and OOo version is different.

not a gsl issue
Comment 2 Olaf Felka 2003-10-06 22:09:48 UTC
I can't reproduce. Please restart setup of the installed workstation and choose 
repair.
Comment 3 Olaf Felka 2003-10-10 09:43:50 UTC
Workaround seems to be fine.

Confirming problem for OOo 1.1.0 (german version) on Windows XP; setup
-net, setup for working user. Used to work until yesterday; not
working anymore today, no changes to the user or his rights.

Complete message:
>>
OpenOffice.org kann nicht gestartet werden, da beim Zugriff auf die
OpenOffice.org Konfigurationsdaten ein Fehler aufgetreten ist.

Bitte wenden Sie sich an Ihren Systemadministrator.

Folgender interner Fehler ist aufgetreten: GetStorage, name: "No
Content!<<

(closing " missing)

Tried to repair using setup.exe; no effect. quickstart.exe crashes
with the same message.

What is this workaround mentioned?

Please reopen the issue. It isn't resolved for my version (OOo 1.1.0,
as mentioned above).

Please: _which_ workaround?! I couldn't get it repaired with the setup
program!

@Number5: You may experience the same symptom (the error message), but not the
same problem.

Between OOo1.1 RC2 and final there was a bugfix. As a result of this, user
('workstation') installations done with the older version don't work with the
final version. This can be fixed by doing a setup -repair using the newer version.

Unless you did the same upgrade, you have a different problem. If you did the
same upgrade, the 'workaround' should work for you.

Looking at your attachment, one of your Common.xcu files appears to be corrupted.

Please try: 
1. remove file
C:\Dokumente und
Einstellungen\Tobias\Anwendungsdaten\OpenOffice.org1.1.0\user\config\registry\data\org\openoffice\Office\Common.xcu

Does the office start now ?

Otherwise: 
2. remove the same file again (if it reappeared) and run setup -repair.

Has the file reappeared and does office start now ? 

Otherwise:
3. Try setup -net -repair

Check D:\Programme\OpenOffice.org1.1.0\program\setup.log for lines containing
ERR near the end. 

Does the office start now ?

Otherwise:
4. Remove the entire directory D:\Programme\OpenOffice.org1.1.0 and redo the
setup -net -d D:\Programme\OpenOffice.org1.1.0; you don't need to redo the user
setup.

Does the office start now ?

Otherwise: Check D:\Programme\OpenOffice.org1.1.0\program\setup.log for lines
containing ERR near the end. If they are there, you appear to have a broken
installation set.
