User sba changed the following: What |Old value |New value ================================================================================ CC|'joergenr' |'cd,joergenr,mav,sba' -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Assigned to|sba |tl -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ever confirmed| |1 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|UNCONFIRMED |NEW -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Target milestone|--- |OOo 3.2 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------- Additional comments from s...@openoffice.org Wed Apr 29 14:56:30 +0000 2009 ------- SBA->TL: As seen, no new Windows user name needed to reproduce this: Just change the user directory to be written into the into the Office installation path in /../share/program/bootstrap.ini: from "UserInstallation=$SYSUSERCONFIG/.../..." to "UserInstallation=${OOO_BASE_DIR}/user-config/" ...like this, all Office stuff is in one tree and Office start itself as well as "parts" (like this dict writing issue) can be looked at latter-by-letter. Note that soffice.exe must be started by hand then as the system integration (Windows main menu start links) can not work anymore. The Office fails to start entirely when installed into a path like this "C:\TEST\ØøåèéêëâğŽΓΔΣΦäöüÄÖÜß\.." - OK, this character collection was meant to do evil :-) However, in the installation scenario "C:\TEST\Øø\..\", Office comes up. Tools - Options - Language Settings - Writing aids allows to create user dict. But it can not be edited. Restarting Office and that empty dict is gone (was never written to disk) Manually copying a dict into the "correct" folder (/..Basis/../user/wordbook/) lets the dict be seen, and edited. - This is ONE possible workaround. Another workaround is to put the user directory into a path on the machine that is NOT under the user-named directory tree. This only makes sense for single-user installations, otherwise all users would overwrite each others settings all the time. SBA-> TL: Please proceed. Put myself, CD and MAV on c/c. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
