Description joergbudi 2003-11-11 19:31:52 UTC 
Hi,

I have a network installation with two client installations.

Starting with 

"soffice -userid=A -headless" 
"soffice -userid=B -headless" 

leads to a hanging 2nd process. 

Reason seems to be, that the office IPC thread implementation reads the
"UserInstallation" Bootstrap parameter before it is set to the new value before
the servicemanager is bootstraped. So all offices (independent of the
-userid=...) try to create the pipe with the same name.

The problem can be workarounded by using 

soffice -env:UserInstallation=...

command line option.


Bye,

Joerg

Comment 2 lo 2003-11-12 13:41:29 UTC 
looking into this
Comment 3 thorsten.martens 2004-05-03 13:09:17 UTC 
"According to the OpenOffice.org roadmap
(http://development.openoffice.org/releases/) this issue was retargeted to OOo
Later."
Comment 4 lo 2005-07-11 09:56:13 UTC 
to get another user directory/pipename, use uno bootstrap parameters. E.g.
soffice -env:UserInstallation=file:///tmp/testuser0

Comment 6 joergbudi 2005-07-11 20:16:11 UTC 
hmm, but the behaviour is still a bug ( the -userid switch simply does not
work), so it needs to be fixed or the switch needs to be deprecated. What dou
you think ?

Bye,

Joerg
Comment 7 lo 2005-07-12 08:52:37 UTC 
yes, -userid should be depricated -> reopen
we should do this when the new startup code will be introduced.
Comment 8 lo 2007-03-06 17:06:41 UTC 
dispatch to framework
Comment 9 carsten.driesner 2007-03-08 10:38:47 UTC 
cd: Accepted and set to OOo 2.3. "-userid=" is deprecated as
"-env:UserInstallation=" is the way to go.
Comment 10 carsten.driesner 2007-07-06 15:06:29 UTC 
cd: The command line help doesn't contain the userid argument. The only
reference to this argument is the online-help which needs to be changed. Due to
ui and localization freeze this cannot be done for OOo 2.3 (new target now 2.4).

cd->ufi: Please remove the -userid argument from the online help. You can use
the new argument "-env:UserInstallation=" to provide a different user
installation folder.
