The easiest way I have found to do this is edit \OpenOffice.org 2.0\share\registry\data\org\openoffice\setup.xcu
Change <prop oor:name="ooSetupInstCompleted"> <value>false</value> </prop> to <prop oor:name="ooSetupInstCompleted"> <value>true</value> </prop> Then add this right below it: <prop oor:name="LicenseAcceptDate" oor:type="xs:string"> <value>2006-05-16T12:55:49</value> </prop> <prop oor:name="FirstStartWizardCompleted" oor:type="xs:boolean"> <value>true</value> </prop> --Chris Hal Vaughan wrote:
I have a situation where I have to install OOo on a series of systems. Some will be used regularly, but in other cases, OOo will always be used in a headless mode. Under 1.x, this was workable and it wasn't a nightmare working out two ways to do it for Linux and Windows. I've got it working now, but I have one problem: The first time a user uses OOo, they have to register. This does not work on systems where it will always be run as headless. That means the installer had to start it an extra time and has created problems where someone forgot to do this and then a system was not working for days in the headless mode. I've only had this problem on Linux. I can set the value for running the initial wizard to false and it's on problem in Windows. I can't get it to work with Linux, though. I've seen many comments on this, but nothing that works. I saw several comments that said to edit Common.xcu and add this to the Registration node: <prop oor:name="ReminderDate" oor:type="xs:string"> <value xsi:nil="true"/> </prop> <prop oor:name="RequestDialog" oor:type="xs:int"> <value>0</value> </prop> I've done that and it makes no difference. This is enough of a critical problem that we may have to discontinue use of OOo if it can't be solved. It wouldn't be so bad if OOo could be run in headless mode without the registration being done, but if it hasn't been registered, OOo won't start in headless mode. Any suggestions? Google has not been of much help on this. Thanks!
