Star Office Documents Cannot Be Saved
Support knowledgebase (mmichna_save_soffice80)
Applies to
SuSE Linux: Version 8.0 (ProOffice Packet)
Symptom
The attempt to save StarOffice documents fails with an error message
similar to:
- /opt/staroffice6.0/work does not exist
- Error while saving the document file name:
writing problem.
The file could not be written.
Cause
When installing StarOffice, you selected "local installation"
as installation type.
This is not necessary, because StarOffice is already locally
installed.
Solution
- Start your Linux system.
- Log in as your user and start your desktop.
- Press the key combination ALT+F2 in KDE.
- Enter "xterm" in the input field.
- Click "Run".
Now execute the following commands:
rm -rf staroffice6.0
rm .user60.rdb
rm .sversionrc
Initialize the installation by clicking the StarOffice icon.
Do not change the presettings for the installation path and installation
type. Use the standard workstation installation instead.
