CentOS 5 :: Openoffice Application Not Starting Up?
Dec 26, 2009
I have a fresh install of Cent OS 5.4 and am having a problem with Openoffice application not starting up, word processor, spreadsheet, etc. none of them start.
When I try to open word processor, It just loads for a bit says "starting word processor", then closes.
I uninstalled and reinstalled through add/remove software tool and that didn't help. I read somewhere that selinux causes problems with it so I disabled selinux, restarted, and that didn't change anything.
I did a fresh install of F11 and everything seemed OK until I started OpenOffice, the OpenOffice loading box shows up then Fedora freezes and I am forced to do a hard restart. I repeated this and it seems to be happening at random with the same default settings of a fresh install.
There is a bad bug in OpenOffice that keeps giving me a hard lock. I can not even shut down the program, I need to force a reboot. I can make it happen repetitively. Anytime I am working on a presentation in OpenOffice Impress an am working with sound files this happens. If I am moving the sound file icon around on the slide it randomly locks up the file I have open. Another way is resizing the icon and it will also lock it up.
I have Ubuntu 10.10 installed on my pc with XBMC installed. It's set to boot into xbmc on start up and works fine. I also have squeezebox server (a music server for my network) installed and again don't have any trouble. I'd now like to get squeezeslave running, a client for squeezebox server so I added the following lines to /etc/init.d/local:
The program I want to use: ProppFrexx Tagger or ProppFrexx Meta Data Editor, can be found here: ProppFrexx ONAIR - The Playout and Broadcast Automation Solution I need this to tag WAV files with RIFF INFO Tags.The Sony PSP can read RIFF Tags! so yeah, that's the reason I need this program. here the complete error message
I have installed websphere application server community edition from ubuntu software center. Now whenever i tries to execute the file "startup.sh" (which is the file to start websphere server) i receive following error.
Quote: Neither the JAVA_HOME nor the JRE_HOME environment variable is defined. At least one of these environment variable is needed to run this program. Now i searched web & find out the way to set JAVA_HOME environment variable which is according to my knowledge done by following command.
I just installed the brand new 11.4 on an old Dell Optiplex GX280 box. After the proxy been set, I tried to open firefox but then, all jumps back to the log in screen. The same happens when I try to open pgadmin. After logging in, all the open windows are gone.
I have a Windows-only language lab program ('Logolab') which provides students with listen and repeat exercises on audio and video material loaded by the teacher. It operates in conjuction with a Firebird database which stores subtitles (I think) and the sequencing data (the lengths of each segment) for recording (a recorded piece will be subdivided into small audio/video segments during which the student repeats what's been said).The audio and video functions are run internally by Windows Media Player, and the video input must be in .WMV format for the system to function.Using Wine, I've managed to install the language lab program on Ubuntu, as well as the Firebird database program. However, each time I start the language lab program, I get the message "Firebird database not started!".There is a BIN folder with the language lab software that contains a .INI file with the following contents:
Perhaps that needs to be modified for Linux or Wine on Linux? I've tried changing the DataBase field with the Linux path to the appropriate .FDB file, and likewise the ServerName field to the Ubuntu computer name or the ip address, but to no avail. Lately, I've installed the Linux version of Firebird and Flame Robin (which I couldn't understand).If anyone can provide any help or suggestions, I'd be most grateful (it's the only thing preventing me from migrating 100% to Linux).
I am trying to make an application server that would contain simple ones like edit, openoffice, gimp, so on and so forth. I know how to access these using ssh but what I want is that the application runs on that server as it already does, but to open local files and save them locally.
I need to copy files over from a Solaris 2.6 box to my machine running Centos 5.3. I have to use RCP since the Solaris box is so old that is the only inter-machine copy command available.How do I enable rshd services on my centos box? Detailed explanation would be apperciated since I am from the ssh generation.
Use python as example, I have 64bit python 2.4.3 yet I can't found rpm for 32bit one so I try to build it.Use default make or make --enable-readline is ok, python make cannot use CFLAGS, can use OPT and LDFLAGS to add -m32, yetit seems can only search for 64bit lib, or else crush.[Moderator edit: Moved from CentOS-4 to CentOS-5 forum.]
this is probably something trivial but how can I auto start gdm on CentOS 5.4??I had to perform a text install due to Anaconda having some issues as I'm running Cent on Sun's VirtualBox.I have tried to add chkconfig --add gdm which didn't work, also there is no init.d script either for gdm so not sure if it's in a directory somewhere or if I have to create it manually??IF I run simply gdm from teh cli then everything is ok and starts fine....
When I tried to open a doc file using openoffice in windows and centos, the same got displayed differently, as attached. Does anyone know what the issue is related to and a fix for this ?
and it starts successfully and the CMS can use it. To start OO at boot time, I wrote a script called 'openofficeserver' and saved it to /etc/init.d. It looks as follows
I recentlly updated my Centos 5.5 to 5.6 usnig yum update, and since then, the QT4 designer cannot be started. If I'm running it (I installed it from source to /usr/local/qt..) the command stuck and nothing happens. The wierd thing is that if I'm running "strace /usr/local/qt/bin/designer4" the program starts.
I'm trying to install a language-pack for my OpenOffice, but there seems to be a dependency-problem. Maybe someone has a suggestion. FC12, x64 OOo.x64 3.1.1
the start up fails, but a process is left running. these machines are running the latest stable version of Centos 5, and we have been "messing" with the firewall. When I'm logged on through a console, I get error messages that lockd can not contact the server even though the nfs mounted home directories work fine.
I have a dual-monitor setup. I have some programs which I would like to start automatically. I each one to start up full screen on a particular monitor, in a particular workspace. Then I can use the workspace facilities to easily switch between the programs, and they will always appear on the correct monitor, in the correct workspace. (At least one of the programs (VMWare Workstation) does not seem to be startable using the facilities to save the current session on logout.)
I installed Apache, and it works fine. However, when I rebooted my CentOS, httpd did not start automatically. What do I need to do to ensure it starts when the system boots?
I have Dell rack server. With the network card of five network ports. But I am just using first one (eth0).
Now the problem:
Its connected the internet and the internet is working fine. I also got update using yum.
When I do ifconfig to check its dynamic IP. It also shows the IP(something like: 192.168.x.x), but if I go to services and try to start DHCPd service its fails. Its not starting at all. And If I go to other computer (Windows 7) and try to ping the dell servers IP, I cannot ping it. So since I cannot ping it from other computer, so no one we can have remote access to the dell server.
I dont understand without starting DHCPd how the dell server is getting the IP address.
So I thought maybe DHCP is corrupted so I removed it using yum and reinstalled it using yum, but no luck so far.
