Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 95779
Extension Toolbar not working without OO restart
Last modified: 2013-08-07 15:31:14 UTC
I am using OOo 3.0, in Kubuntu 8.04. I install a Writer Extension and reopen the Writer window. The new extension toolbar is there, but clicking on the buttons gives the following error message: A Scripting Framework error occurred while running the Basic script vnd.sun.star.script:odt2pml.ConvertASCII.sbAsciiWizard? language=Basic&location=application Message. The following Basic script could not be found: library: 'odt2pml' module: ConvertASCII method: sbAsciiWizard location: application After completely shutting down and restarting OOo, everything worked well. Another user sent me the same error running OOo with Windows Vista. I don't know if that is a bug to be fixed, or a normal OOo behaviour - but then the Extension Manager should tell users to restart OOo before using newly installed extensions...
Adjusted subject to better reflect the concrete problem and not to imply a solution. The solution for the problem IMO should be to fix the bug with the toolbars not working and not to introduce a restart-required-after-extension-installation feature to be able to work around the actual bug.
