I had the same problem. Here's my solution:

1. Check if libreoffice is running –> service alfresco status libreoffice
2. Open ALFRESCO ROOT FOLDER/libreoffice/scripts/libreoffice_ctl.sh –> remove any backslashes from line SOFFICE="$SOFFICEWRAPPER –nofirststartwizar….
3. Make a ctl.sh symlink to libreoffice_ctl.sh
4. Restart libreoffice –> service alfresco restart libreoffice

Hope that helps.
