Thanks, I updated some very obsolete content there and in linked pages 
too. It should now be less confusing for a new volunteer.


As you go and read stuff, should you find anything clearly obsolete feel 
free to edit it yourself or ask here how it should be modified.

2014-08-30 Thread Alexandro Colorado
Please list your OS and what are you doing to make it crash, if you
want upload your document so we can see if there is something on the
document that makes it crash etc. Share the link (dont attach it to
the email).

 Hope you smart guys can do something about v4.1.1

I downloaded open office and now I can't open any old files.

Help please:
I have two serious problems:

1.  I downloaded Apache Open Office and now I can’t open any of my files.  They 
ball are locked.

2.  Earlier today I downloaded an article called Mozilla support and Firefox.  
It explains the basic set up but I don’t understand anything.

It says 
1.  Open a tab with the webpage you want to use and your home page button.
2. Drag and drop that tab onto the home page button.
There are 8 pages that might as well be Greek.
I don’t understand a word.  
I am an educated woman and I HAVE USED A COMPUTER FOR 20 years, but my literacy 
in these things is nil.

I have a scholarly manuscript ready for publishing, an now I can’t open even 
one page of it and there are 24 chapters.
I am poor and can’t afford a technician.
I haven’t got time to mess around and wait.

Have you previously had OpenOffice installed on your computer, or is this a 
first time install?  What is the filetype (the  three or four letter extension) 
of your existing files?

Why am I reminded of Talleyrand? - no matter!

 I have a scholarly manuscript ready for publishing, an now I can’t open even 
 one page of it and there are 24 chapters.

How did you prepare this manuscript - what program did you use? Has it been 
transferred from another computer? What file type is it?


 I am poor and can’t afford a technician.

So, aren't we all?

 I haven’t got time to mess around and wait.

The sooner you answer the above questions, the sooner someone can help, subject 
to the demands of real life on them.

Re: ASF banner ads

http://www.apache.org/ads/

The home page is already quite cluttered. But this could fit in the
footer. We currently have a 203x61 feather on the right hand side in the
footer. The logo Apache provides for ApacheCon would be 234x60, so quite
similarly sized. We could accommodate it in the footer, to the left.


I tried all the options discussed, but it didn't fit at all in the 
header or in the download page (which in turn is already complex 
enough). So I implemented the above solution, and you'll see it in the 
site footer.


If anyone can do better, just improve it, no problem. But it's important 
to have ApacheCon visible.

  Andrea.

Help.. Build error about missing processdeps.awk under Windows7

2014-08-30 Thread Hung Mark
I'm bulding latest OpenOffice source code under Windows 7 (64-bit).

It complaint about missing processdeps.awk in gtest module (complete error
message in the attached file):

awk: fatal: can't open source file
`C:/cygwinc:/cygwin/home/mh/aoo/main/solenv/gbuild/processdeps.awk' for
reading (No such file or directory)

I found a similar post when searching the mailing list archive,   it said
that the error message disappear after changing from source release to
subversion repository. I tried, but building code with subversion repos
does not solve the problem


Here is how I configure it:

export SourceMain=`pwd`
export SDK_PATH=/cygdrive/c/Program Files/Microsoft SDKs/Windows/v7.0
autoconf  \
./configure \
 --with-frame-home=$SDK_PATH \
 --with-psdk-home=$SDK_PATH \
 --with-midl-path=$SDK_PATH/bin \
 --disable-directx  \
 --enable-dbgutil \
 --with-ant-home=/cygdrive/c/apache-ant-1.9.4 \
 --with-cl-home=/cygdrive/c/PROGRA~2/MICROS~1.0/VC \
 --with-java-home=/cygdrive/c/Program Files (x86)/Java/jdk1.7.0_67/ \
 --with-dmake-url=

\
 --enable-pch \
 --disable-atl \
 --disable-activex \
 --disable-binfilter \
 --without-junit \
 --with-lang=en-US zh-TW


When I check winenv.set.sh , there is still lots of environment variable
begin with C:\,
I'm not sure if it is the cause of the problem. Could any one suggest how
to build it properly? Thanks.
