Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 5926
Open Office writer starts only after a second or third invocation
Last modified: 2003-09-08 16:56:16 UTC
When I start Open Office Writer on my home machine (Athlon 850/256 MB RAM) it starts only after the second trial. After the first press of the appropriate icon the Writer's window appears and gets closed immediately, before the cursor starts to blink. On my office machine (Athlon 650/128MB RAM) it works similarly, but usually it starts after the third trial. Additionally this efect depends on the amount of time between the consecutive trials (the two trials on my home machine, or three trials on my office machine must be performed very quickly one after another, otherwise the Open Office Writer does not start at all). It seems that it may be a timeout problem when initializing different threads of the application?
Running gnome on those linux machines ? Try issue 4494. App starts up too slowly and the gnome session manager thinks its not responding. Subsequent restarts are faster because of caches and so sneaks past the magic timeout value. Either make timeout larger, or unsetenv SESSION_MANAGER to tell session manger to ignore it. Read 4494 for details. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 4494 ***
