This has nothing to do with ownership or permissions - the target document is owned by the user with full permissions. Moving the file to ~/Desktop allows it to be opened normally. Error message in popup window: Access to /home2/mico/documents/personal/2018 lists.ods was denied. Error message when launched from terminal: $: localc "2018 lists.ods" javaldx: Could not find a Java Runtime Environment! Please ensure that a JVM and the package libreoffice-java-common is installed. If it is already installed then try removing ~/.libreoffice/3/user/config/javasettings_Linux_*.xml Warning: failed to read path from javaldx The file mentioned in the error message does not exist. I removed the corresponding file under ~/.libreoffice/4/ but that makes no difference. This but started in Ubuntu 18.04 (alpha) around Feb. 15, and with today's update (Feb. 22) it appeared in Ubuntu 17.10.
