Description mino38 2005-08-20 00:29:45 UTC 
If the user's home directory is on an NFS 3 share, openoffice2 apps crash on
startup.

oowriter2, oographics2, oocalc2 crash after splash screen, with:
terminate called after throwing an instance of
'com::sun::star::configuration::backend::BackendAccessException'

ooimpress2 crashes after project selection screen, with the same error.

Repeatability: every time

Fix: Problems disappear completely with:

/usr/lib/openoffice2/programs/soffice:
64,65c64,65
< SAL_ENABLE_FILE_LOCKING=1
< export SAL_ENABLE_FILE_LOCKING
---
> #SAL_ENABLE_FILE_LOCKING=1
> #export SAL_ENABLE_FILE_LOCKING

At least, this issue should be detected and locking functionality should be
disabled, instead of producing an obscure error message.

[ben@java program] $ ooffice2 --version
This is OpenOffice.org built with ooo-build-1.9.79.2

Please be more detailed: which distribution? where downloaded from? checksummed?
Reproducible with the newest OOo build? "This is OpenOffice.org built with
ooo-build-1.9.79.2"! Now we are opn build 1.9.122!
