------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fri Oct 31 07:27:20 +0000 2008 ------- After installing the Sun Presentation Minimizer extension, two errors occur in the Windows Event Viewer after every boot. The pertinent error message is (in German): "Die Datei C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\knapp_r\Anwendungsdaten\OpenOffice.org\3\user\uno_packages\cache\registry\com.sun.star.comp.deployment.configuration.PackageRegistryBackend\registry\data\org\openoffice\Office\extension\SunPresentationMinimizer.xcu konnte nicht nach \\ARTWEGER04\VOL1\US\knapp_r\Windows NT 5.1 Workstation Profile\Anwendungsdaten\OpenOffice.org\3\user\uno_packages\cache\registry\com.sun.star.comp.deployment.configuration.PackageRegistryBackend\registry\data\org\openoffice\Office\extension\SunPresentationMinimizer.xcu kopiert werden. Mögliche Fehlerursachen sind Netzwerkprobleme oder nicht ausreichende Sicherheitsrechte. Wenden Sie sich an den Netzwerkadministrator, wenn das Problem weiterhin besteht. Details - Der Dateiname oder die Erweiterung ist zu lang." This means the path name is too long. The path referred to is: C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\knapp_r\Anwendungsdaten\OpenOffice.org\3\user\uno_packages\cache\registry\com.sun.star.comp.deployment.configuration.PackageRegistryBackend\registry\data\org\openoffice\Office\extension\SunPresentationMinimizer.xcu This is obviously longer than the acceptable Windows path name length. The error message occurs when using roaming profiles. Our workaround is to use the following undocumented command line parameter: soffice -env:UserInstallation=file:///c:/oo The problem is theroretically not limited to this extension but rather applies to all extensions that use very long path names. The problem may not occur under English operating systems because the standard user folders may have shorter names in English. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
