I have just loaded up Alfresco 3.4c community and openoffice previewing no longer works. I had noted that this was disabled in the config file and enabled this, but it still does not allow previewing stating that 'The preview could not be loaded from the server'. No errors are evident in the log file that suggest any problem. Any idea what this might be?

Heiko,
Thanks for the advice, SWFTOOLS appears to have been my problem also. Once the package version was installed and configured, the preview feature started working again, confirming that there was no problem with OpenOffice. Something must have changed between 3.4b and 3.4c as this feature worked previously.
Best Regards,
Martin

Martin,
maybe your previous version added the imagemagick convert command to the path?
Anyway - if it works everything is fine …

I am also seeing this problem in the 3.4c release on Linux.
Transformations for PDF and Text are working well for me. I am able to view the SWF of both of these in the web preview window.
But Word documents are not converting. I don't see any errors in the log.
In the log I also see this:
13:27:48,694 WARN [org.alfresco.util.OpenOfficeConnectionTester] An initial OpenOffice connection could not be established.
13:27:48,745 INFO [org.alfresco.repo.management.subsystems.ChildApplicationContextFactory] Startup of 'OOoDirect' subsystem, ID: [OOoDirect, default] complete

Hmm, looks like a buggy symlink of "common/lib/libstdc++.so.5", let see the solution: http://louise.hu/poet/?p=4873

To fix most (if not all) of my problems with previewing docs and pdfs is to update/use:
OpenOffice 3.3 (installer comes with Open Office 3.2.0 portable)
pdf2swf
Change alfresco-global.properties to the new versions of the programs.
In ~/WEB-INF/lib/:
pdfbox.jar to 1.2.1
fontbox.jar
Using Ubuntu 10.04 desktop. Apt-get or google for downloads.
