openoffice integration, need help

[michu]

Hi all

I am running LABS3 stable on a Debian Lenny Server (no gui)
I installed openoffice.headless 2.4 (lenny package)
and I configured the custom-repository.properties

If I start LABS3 soffice will be started too.

Later in Alfresco I am not able to preview openoffice files and if press the little i button I get "500: Internal server error"

any idea is welcome

Hi,

it depends, how did you configured OO.
In my installation also on Debian Lenny (no gui) i've installed OO 3 and configured only in /opt/Alfresco/tomcat/shared/classes/alfresco/extension/custom-repository.properties
ooo.exe=/opt/openoffice.org3/program/soffice
ooo.user=${dir.root}/oouser

Hi

thanks for reply

I did exactly the same, the lenny debian package installs 2.4.1
hmm, is it possible that I have to install OO3?

Hi,

I don't know if You must remove the previous version if yes then
"apt-get –purge remove openoffice-*" then

download for example OOo_3.0.1_LinuxIntel_install_en-US_deb.tar.gz from http://download.openoffice.org/other.html
tar -zxvf OOo_3.0.1_LinuxIntel_install_en-US_deb.tar.gz
then enter DEBS folder and dpkg -i *.deb
openoffice should install in /opt/openoffice.org3

have fun you should have Openoffice 3
