Bug#475008: openoffice.org: OOo does not work with installed Java
This is a "me too", but with additional information. I experienced the same problem as did the submitter. But I realized that the problem popped up on the day when I upgraded the sun-java6 from 6.04-2 to 6.05-1. Downgrading the sun-java6 removed the problem. Upgrading again reintroduced the problem. Killing the ~/openoffice.org2 directory repaired the problem, too, but that is not a good solution. It is an upgrade problem, not "a problem with his profile". And it is a problem that will hit more or less all users of openoffice.org. best regards Peder Chr.

Indeed. When openoffice.org was installed it pulled in a bunch of dependencies which I did not include in my response. In my case, this was a previously working openoffice install on sid that stopped working after an upgrade to the latest packages which I believe is a similar circumstance to Frank. > > And he already *did* tell it was a problem with his profile. You may have Frank confused with Guy as I don't believe Frank has tried removing his openoffice profile yet. When Guy removed his ~/.openoffice.org2 profile the problem was resolved for him. > > Regards, > > Rene > In my case, I suspect a previous sid update removed the required openoffice packages that then left openoffice in a bad state. Once openoffice.org and it's dependencies were installed it works again as expected. If there is anything you would like me to test please let me know. Thanks.

That's doesn't make sense. openoffice.org is *empty* except the files the policy mandates and some files for reportbug. No files without any effect on OOo itself. [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ dpkg -L openoffice.org /. /usr /usr/share /usr/share/bug /usr/share/bug/openoffice.org /usr/share/bug/openoffice.org/control /usr/share/bug/openoffice.org/presubj /usr/share/doc /usr/share/doc/openoffice.org /usr/share/doc/openoffice.org/copyright /usr/share/doc/openoffice.org/README.gz /usr/share/doc/openoffice.org/changelog.Debian.gz /usr/share/doc/openoffice.org/README.Debian.gz /usr/share/doc/openoffice.org/changelog. Of course, installing openoffice.org might have pulled you openoffice.org-java-common in, but he has it already. And he already *did* tell it was a problem with his profile.

Hello. Frank, can you please confirm that you have 'openoffice.org' installed? I was able to reproduce this bug on sid and the problem occurred when 'openoffice.org' was not installed. Without this package, openoffice would fail with a "javaldx: Could not find a Java Runtime Environment!" message and removing all traces of gij, libgcj, $PATH, $JAVA_HOME, and .openoffice.org2 did not solve the problem. Installing 'openoffice.org' corrected the issue in this case. Derrick -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

(Needless to say, it works here, have to try on i386, though, but I doubt it'd be different there) Regards, Rene -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Bug#475008: openoffice.org: OOo does not work with installed Java
Package: openoffice.org Version: 1:2.4.0-3+b1 Severity: important Hi all, my OOo does not work with the Java installed. I usually have sun-java6-jre installed (latest version) but OOo did not work with it. Now I've installed gij and openoffice.org-gcj but still no success. When OOo needs Java e.g. formular assistant in base I do get 2 popups: 1) OOo needs a JRE to perform this task, the chosen JRE is broken. Please choos another version or install a new JRE. I click ok and get 2)The connection to the DB could not be established. No Java installation could be found. Please check your installation. Whenever I go to Extras - Option - Java the radio buttion for selecting a JRE is inactive. I've done this a couple of times now, slecting a JRE, restarting OOo again and find Java not working. I'm running an up-to-date sid.
