Fedora Installation :: Getting Error When Try To Install Openoffice / Sort It?
Apr 30, 2010
Keep in mind that I am a newbie to Fedora.
First off I have set up the PC so that it dual boots XP and Fedora 12
I have been struggling with the installation of openoffice 3.2
I have watched a tutorial on ..... where he was able to do it on Fedora 12 using the
Add/Remove Software feature just by simply typing in openoffice.org.
I have tried this multiple times and can't seem to get it working.
I have also tried using the yum command through terminal
I have been using "yum localinstall" and recieve this error
Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: fedora.
Please verify its path and try again

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
Code:
[root@sarah yum.repos.d]# yum install openoffice.org-langpack-de
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, presto, refresh-packagekit, remove-with-leaves
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
* fedora: ftp.astral.ro
* livna: rpm.livna.org
[Code]...

I'm trying to install FC14 on my box... without any success so far
The problem: when it comes to write the partitioning scheme to the disk, the system freezes. This occurs with the following CD images:
- Fedora 14 LXDE live image. Installation using "Install to Disk" script.
- Fedora 14, regular i386 image
- Fedora 15 (beta) LXDE live image
I did further tests and found out that I could simply reproduce the problem by trying to write a partition on /dev/sdb using fdisk:
- after executing the fdisk 'w' command, the system hangs for about 10-15 seconds
- no kernel message can been seen during this time using dmesg
- after those 10-15s, the system freezes. I have no other option but power off the machine.
There is no Hardware problem with the disk itself. I can read/write partition on that disk without problem using another distro.
Does someone have a few ideas what to do?

I tried a number of times to install dual boot with Win2k. I keep getting errors at the stage of setting up the partition for the install. When I try to choose ext4 it says Fedora cannot be installed on a bootable drive, fix the problem. I don't see how to fix it...it does not say what to do or change.
I have had other linux installed in the same partition without a problem. What gives?
150GB drive for both OS's Separate drive for data, not involved in the install.
| 72GB NTFS Win2K | 76 GB free for ext3 and swap |
LBA support on in Bios.

I am using a kernel of version 2.6.32 . I installed iptables of version 1.4.2 and it got installed successfully.
but while adding some rule to the iptable i faced an error like the following
iptables v1.4.2: Couldn't load target `standard':/usr/local//libexec/xtables/libipt_standard.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
i basically want to add a rule like the following
iptables -A INPUT -p icmp -j QUEUE
one more thing i would like to add post is tat
i did not find a library called libipt_standard.so in iptables folder(/usr/local/libexec/xtables)
instead i found a library libxt_standard.so
i tried renaming libxt_standard.so to libipt_standard.so
but even then i found the same error.

I recently removed Spotify using the Wine remove software function. When I try to reinstall Spotify using the "Spotify Installer.exe" I just keep getting the famous "NSIS error" (without any error code, it's plain NSIS). When I try to run the "Spotify Installer.exe" through a terminal it gives me:
wine: cannot find L"unix\home\user\Desktop\Spotify Installer.exe"
Any help in this bloody mess is much appreciated since I can't (I hope no one can) live without music.
I'm running Ubuntu Natty 11.04.

What is the best way to install OpenOffice 3.2 in Fedora 12? I currently have 3.1.1 installed, done as part of the install process plus yum updates since then. I've heard that 3.2 gives much better docx support. I just loaded a .docx file into my current version of OpenOffice, and it looked a bit munged.

I've downloaded and installed Fedora 13 on my harddrive, it boots and I can log in.
What do I do now?
I've tried to install openoffice, but I can't get it to run. Unlike installing a program in windows, it appears there is a lot more involved in getting a downloaded .tar/.bz2/whatever they are to load and become a program.
I've tried borrowing a book on Linux, but I'm lost with that too as it doesn't tell me how to add/remove programs let alone get them running in the first place.

I downloaded and burned the iso at 12x speed and configured the BIOS so that the computer would boot from a CD. I ran the Live CD and everything seemed to be fine until i was informed that the installation had failed because of problems with my hard drive. But worst was to come when i reconfigured the BIOS so as to boot from the hard drive and all i got was a completely blank screen. I don't have a Ubuntu 10.04 Live cd handy so i have to use a different distro's live cd just to get on line.

I just loaded Fedora 11 from the Linux Bible live CD. When looking at adding software, I see options for individual Openoffice packages like the word processor or calc. Is there a way to load the whole suite in one step? (I'm new to Fedora)

I installed openoffice 3.0 from openoffice site (www.openoffice.org) in my Fedora Core 6 OS computer. However, while doing that I might have made some mistakes. I removed openoffice 2.4 and 2.0 by using openoffice uninstall. In fact, couple of occasions, I have uninstalled and again fresh installed openoffice 3.0 when I noticed that moment I pressed any key, the program crashes. I have by mistaken the script ooffice, thinking that it would automatically install a new one. But there is no ooffice. I have to call soffice for that.

I have installed open office using yum install.
To install OpenOffice you can use yum like:
connect to the internet
open a console
su -
root password
yum install openoffice.org-base openoffice.org-calc openoffice.org-calc openoffice.org-draw openoffice.org-draw openoffice.org-writer
(all on one line)
This will install the man packages for Openoffice. To see all packages available for OpenOffice use:
yum list openoffice*
I am running fedora 14.
I have no openoffice icons on the desktop, or items in the menus.

I am trying to install openoffice and I get. Note this installation will be done without root privileges. Therefore you will have reduced functionality. Change privileges to root privileges if you want full functionality. I have opened a terminal and su to root with no avail.

I am trying to install a piece of software that uses an install.pl script which looks to /usr/src/linux/include/ for my kernel headers...but it never finds them or that directory/link.
I've run "yum install kernel-devel kernel-headers" so I am pretty sure they are installed.
My "rpm -qa | grep kernel" returns code...
What am I missing?

I have a Acer Aspire D250 the new ones that comes with the win 7 starter kit.
When I try to install or just even try to load from the live CD from Ubuntu 9.10 or Ubuntu 9.10 remix the logo come up and screen goes black. I'm using a 4gig Sanddisk cruzer and I formated to fat32.
Is it an option that I need to change into the bios? do you think I really need to use a external DVD to install it?
I tried to find a solution on google but can't find anything

I have an Acer Aspire One AOA110 that came with Windows XP.
I created a usb flash drive install for Ubuntu 10.10 netbook edition and went through the install process (wiped disk clean, not a dual boot with WINXP).
Before install, I was able to run Ubunut from the usb key with no problems.
At the end of the install, it told me I needed to restart, so I clicked the "restart" button and the removed the usb drive. Nothing happened and it never restarted and just completley hung for about 20 minutes. I manually shut down the computer by holding the power for 10 seconds and then rebooted the machine. Now all I get after the "acer bios" screen is a black screen with a blinking cursor. If I press any buttons, the computer beeps at me.

I have an Acer netbook that I installed Remix on. Now I can't get the thing to boot from the CD drive which is connected via the USB port. Any suggestions? I set the boot order with the CD drive first and the HD last.

Who has successfully upgraded going from F7 x86_64 to F9 x86_64 using the yum approach? I have had about 0% success getting everything to work correctly doing a fresh install of F9. Everything works correctly in F7( sound, firefox/flash, networking, samba, etc ), so I figure that starting with something know to work and upgrading to F9 might be a better approach that starting with F9 and having it guess.

I just installed 10.04 on an Acer 4736 laptop and was prompted for a software update of about 170 MB.
I went through with the update downloads and installation, got an error message of some packages not being found, and clicked on the "close" button on the dialogue to finish with the whole thing.
Now the Update Manager window with the grayed-out package updates didn't go away, and the cursor would always show the "busy" circle thing. I waited for a while, but nothing happened. I tried opening Firefox to check for anything about this on the net, but it wouldn't open.
So I left it alone, and it the screen went black (screensaver, I guess). When I tried to get back to the desktop, I couldn't. Screen wouldn't respond and it stayed black; no password prompt or anything.
Ctrl-Alt-Backspace wouldn't take me back to the login screen either.

I tried to install Ubuntu 10.10 Server 32bits and 64bits but each time the installer stopped at 45% during "Starting up the partitioner" with the message "Scanning disks".
I installed Windows 7 64bits on the disks without problem.
I installed IPCop 1.4.20 successfully.
However, I tried to install Fedora 14 32bits and 64bits but it also stopped (ie crashed the partitioner) during the "Install To Harddisk" via LiveCD.
Similarly, OpenNode 1.0 also crashed with a bug report that has alot of python error messages. All mean nothing to me.
I even tried to partition the disks first via Fedora 14 LiveCD. Still the same thing.
Has anyone encountered this sort of problems before? If so, any resolutions?
Could this be the problem with the SATA2 disks?
