Removal of Adfinis SyGroup from the consultants list

[David Vogt]

Hi there,

I would like to request the removal of Adfinis SyGroup from the consultants
list (assets/bizdev/consultants/consultants.xml).

We do not offer OpenOffice consultancy services to new clients anymore, so
having our company listed there does not benefit anyone. Also, the info
link 404's as well.

Note that we changed our company name from "Adfinis SyGroup" to "Adfinis" a
few years ago along with the domain name, so if you need to authenticate my
message before the removal, freel free to send an email to the address in
the consultants.xml first - it still works :-)

Thanks and best regards,
David

Dear Developers,
I have finally figured out that I can't log in to the Open Office
Forum because emails do not get sent to my gmail address, because of
changes that Google has made.
Despite the mail issue you should still be able to log in and post 
messages to the forum; you won't get emails notifying you of any 
responses to your questions so you'll have to check online occasionally.


I would like to update from Open Office 4.1.9 to 4.1.15, on my Macbook
Air 2020 (macOS 12.0.1).  I am hoping this will solve the problem that
has suddenly arisen.  As of the first week of June 2024) I can no
longer create & save new Open Office documents or spreads
It is unlikely that upgrading OpenOffice will resolve this problem. You 
should ask about the problem on the forum and include details of any 
error messages or warnings that you get when trying to save your documents.

heets.  My
old documents and spreadsheets open and save just fine.

My question is this:  Do I simply download 4.1.15 from the Apache
OpenOffice website?  Do I need to somehow get rid of or inactivate the
version that is currently loaded?  I am just a non-tech-savvy user.
If you wish to upgrade, you shouldn't need to remove the older version; 
however you shouldn't need to. You can find instructions for removing 
OpenOffice in Mac FAQ Q04: How do I uninstall OpenOffice on a Mac? 
https://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?t=89283.


See Q03: How do I install OpenOffice on a Mac? in the same topic for 
installation.*

remonterais plus...
Sur la page 
https://www.openoffice.org/api/docs/common/ref/com/sun/star/lang/EventObject.html 
il y a deux liens qui ne répondent plus :

Hello

I don't know where to talk about this problem. If someone tells me no 
more, I won't bring them up again...
On the page 
https://www.openoffice.org/api/docs/common/ref/com/sun/star/lang/EventObject.html 
there are two links that don't work anymore:

Re: [IMPORTANT] Scheduling Maintenance for our Forum

[David Robley]

"apparent inconsistency on the mod control panel" no longer exists

Thank you for all the work you have put into this. I would be willing to help 
out as an admin for the EN forum.

Maintenance on the Forums is completed!

The Forums are now at phpBB 3.3.7 which was released March 17, 2023. The prior 
version was 3.0.9 released July 10, 2011.

Very, very happy. Future updates should be much easier. I will follow up with 
the Forum sysadmins on these issues:

1. The Italian Forum has a weird display issues. I think that a post will need 
to be regenerated.
2. We need to find forum administrators to replace imacat for each forum.
3. I will need to document the process, customizations and migration steps.

But I’ll need a few days away.

ATB,

Done! Try it on the EN forum and I’ll propagate to the others.

We’re going to need to take full control of the forum sysadmin role once the

Hi all,

Apache OpenOffice has already been available in the new Microsoft Store 
on Windows 11 since October.
With the latest App update, the new store is also coming to Windows 10.

Users can now install the latest OpenOffice version with a single click!

The Store Listings are localized in English, German, Italian, Polish 
and Portuguese.
Feel free to contact me if you want to add more languages or if you 
have any questions.

The error message reported was

computer is a home computer (Lenovo). I do not have MS Office and have for
several years happily used only Open Office for all my document preparation

2) When I *receive* colour documents I am able to print them in colour. I
am also able to print pictures in colour.

3) However, when I attempt to print* colour *documents that *I create
*utilizing
Open Office 4.1.5 they will only print in black and white even though I
instruct the printer to print the document in colour.

My printer is  *EPSON ET-2720* (Driver type: Type 3 - User Mode; Driver
version: 2.60.1.0) . I contacted Epson technical support and after running
a series of tests they advised me that the problem does not rest with my
Epson printer but must be a glitch in the Open Office programme and
suggested that I contact Open Office to have it resolved. Hence, I am
writing to you.

I am not very computer savvy and so I hope that you can help me to resolve
this issue as I am at a total loss. Many thanks.

Re: Fonts list

[David Robley]

On my Linux system, AOO 4.2.0 installed from rpm, fonts are installed in 
opt/openoffice4/share/fonts/


I suspect that on Windows, fonts are installed in the system font 
directory; whether you could compare file modification times with the 
time of installing AOO?


Just my 02

Could it perhaps be that the macro you refer to is mentioned in

I'm not into the OpenOffice code, but am asking questions answers to 
which I have learned from Forum are helpful.  I presume hunspell is 
(or ought) be installed on your Mac.  in linux,
"locate hunspell" in a terminal shows its locations. Can you confirm, 
with a Mac equivalent command, if hunspell is installed on your Mac, 
and its locations?  The problem is possibly the incorrect 
configuration of a file path in the code.




I don't know the terminal commands to search for "hunspell".

Have you Java installed?
Yes - but I hadn't added it to AOO; I did that in the working version, 
then uninstalled again, completely wiping anything under 
/opt/openoffice4 and re-installed. Now I get a different dialog box error:

The application cannot be started.

How did you delete the profile?

Simply by renaming ~/.openoffice/4/user

If the base directory still exist it might be problematic. I am not sure.
As I mentioned above, the base directory /opt/openoffice4 was empty. I 
failed to mention that I use the Slackware package to remove the old 
version before installing the new.

Don't believe everything you read on the internet. AOO seems to work

However, if you choose to innstall AOO, please make sure you read the

Probably a Windows update has changed the file associations for those

We do get occasional problems on the EN forum where a stray trailing non

don't know how much of an issue it would be to add this, but if it is 
comparatively simple I'd support it; as I suspect would a few others who

As an aside, would it be possible to have the search default to Display

Findings after running a W3C Check on your site ..

[David G. Stapleton]

I believe you are interested in the findings automatically located and 
documented this morning as I was clicking around your site @ 
https://www.openoffice.org/documentation/index.html. All I did to be the almost 
instantaneous recipient of the enumerating documentation of coding errors / 
misnomers on the subject page was click the [ W3C XHTML 1.0 ] icon button in 
the lower left corner of this particular page. 

Please review and at least consider making W3C’s recommended edits to your 
pages codings following their examples found in the attached PDF I included 
with this my 1st email to your WebDev team. It would reflect well on your team 
of developers if you’d run this test completely on your site. This would give 
your open source software a good shot in the arm so to speak. 

I hope this helps your OS project I’ve enjoyed using from time to time since a 
couple of previous versions ago.

RE: Reporting broken download link

[David Szott]

Marcus,



After I replied, I noticed IE came up with a dialog window to save the file.  
But when I clicked on it to save the file, I got:



[cid:image003.jpg@01D34D91.531FDC70]



It tells me it couldn't download it.



As I mentioned, we have problems sometimes with IE 11, so I won't worry about 
this because I can get it in Firefox.  But I thought you'd like to know.

David

Marcus,



When I right-click on the link and select "save target as", the right-click 
menu just disappears in my IE 11 (patched up to date).  Happens also for KEYS 
and ASC.



However, I tried Firefox, and right-click save as does work in Firefox, so I 
was able to download it.  (I thought I used to be able to just double-click on 
these MD5 links, but maybe I'm remembering wrong.)



We've been finding more and more IE 11 has trouble with a number of sites, so I 
won't worry about it.  I can use Firefox for this.



Anyway, thank you for your help.  (The MD5sum did check out against the install 
file.)

it seems your Internet connection is different when handling such files.
Compared to ASC and KEYS I need to download the MD5 and SHA256 files instead of 
seeing them in my browser.

So, can you right click the links and use "Save As" to download and save them 
locally? Does it work?

Otherwise I would ask the system admin for help.

I'm pretty sure it would work when you are at home. So, sending the hash values 
via mail to your work mailbox can help. Yes, a bit cumbersome ... ;-)

Open Office 4.1.3

[David Williams]

I am an author and have been using Open Office for many years by using Dragon 
Dictate without any problems. The Open Office has coped with the dictation with 
no difficulty.
NOW, after upgrading to Open Office 4.1.3 I get the message that it doesn’t 
accept dictation and typing. This is something new and will not allow me to 
dictate into my favourite word processing program.
Is there a patch that I can download to resolve this?

Updates

[David Batchelor]

I am using open office 4.1.2 and I love this product very much.

How do I automatically or manually update any and all new versions that may
come in the future?

Will I be notified by open office?

What steps do I need to take to do any updates, as I want to insure I am
using the latest version at all times?

Impress - powerpoint presentation -leaking memory?

[T David]

In the last version 4.1.2 of openoffice, there is a problem opening *.pptx
powerpoint files from microsoft. IT opens the file, after a second or two
it crashes. I guess, this might be a memory leak.

good luck and fingers crossing for all to good work.!

When you're putting together a plan for marketing efforts concerning a
Wikipedia article, it may help if you don't leave prima facie evidence
of your coordinated effort on a public mailing list.

Editing with a conflict of interest is not specifically disallowed by
Wikipedia policies, but ideally it should be avoided. Note example on
the talk page, where a list participant properly noted his involvement
when this was brought to his attention.

Relevant guideline: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Conflict_of_interest

You should note also that a "conflict of interest" does not mean a
differing opinion, and also that improperly founded accusations of COI
are held to constitute personal attacks and should ideally be avoided.

There are those (e.g. Jimmy Wales) who believe public relations
efforts on Wikipedia should work to the "bright line" standard, where
you don't go near the article at all, and certainly don't try to
coordinate an off-site attack on a Wikipedia contributor because you
believe they are not helping your marketing. This is something the
project, and the Foundation in general, should probably consider.

Cheers!

 There are a number of reported Windows 10 problems, some of which are 
being laid at the door of OpenOffice although they may be generic W10 
upgrade difficulties and/or user problems with that upgrade.

 I list below some of the recent threads.

 The most common problem is that the W10 upgrade leaves all OpenOffice 
files (and, from other reports, other application files) in read-only 
form;  this read-only may possibly be removable but there is no clear 100% 
effective path to do this (from the reports below)

 Other reports are of inability to open OO applications - Calc apparently 
being the most commonly affected.

Issues

[David Beanblossom]

I have been building a house and have spent way too much time generating
spreadsheets lately since the project is winding down.  I have observed what
I believe are defects in your calc program. Such as:

 

 

. I haven't found a way to change the default fonts in Calc.  They
are always Arial 10.  I have change the OpenOffice Writer to what I want,
but not in Calc.

 

. Spell check does not work in Calc although it tells you everything
is OK and there is no misspelling.

 

. I have a file with multiple sheets.  In one file, sheet #2 shows
data, but it is blank in page preview and will not print.  Yet the data is
right in front of me.

 

. The header and footers drive me nuts.  I can't turn off the header
Sheet 1 nor the footer Page 1.  I have to go into every sheet and delete
them every time I open a spreadsheet.  If you can turn them off or make a
default, your Help button doesn't know it.  And, if I do delete them and
later want to add a header, I can't.  The header and footer are grayed out
in Edit and cannot be added under Insert.  What is the deal???

 

I will write more when I remember the other irritations of Calc.

RE: EXTERNAL: Re: Building comphelper

[Meffe, David K]

Raymond and Herbet,

I found out where the make file was including the stlport libraries. It was in 
solaris.mk in the gb_Library_FILENAMES and gb_Library_LAYER. I commented out 
the STLLIBS in both of these sections and it was able to build comphelper. 
While I'm not sure this is the best solution, it was where the LinkTarget.mk 
was getting the location for the libcomphelperC52.so.

 For select1st, we noticed that the functional header delivered with

Select1st didn't make it into the C++ standard, so good standard compliant

 but the aoo delivered functional located in systemstl/tr1 did.  Our 
 Makefile flags are set to include the stdcxx4 functional instead of the 
 systemstl/tr1 functional. To get around this we  modified 
 namedvaluecollection.cxx:
 
 #if defined(__SUNPRO_CC)
 #include ../systemstl/tr1/functional
 #esle
#include functional
 #endif
 
 Let us know if you think there is a better way to address this. 

The systemstl/tr1/functional header is a wrapper around good standard compliant 
functional headers. Many parts of the AOO codebase still expect the obsoleted 
stlport4 semantics and the wrapper provides them.
The AOO codebase is being adjusted (e.g. [1],[2],[3]) to be more standard 
compliant, so obsolete parts will be replaced. When the emulation of an 
obsoleted construct is no longer needed by the codebase then that emulation can 
be removed from the wrappers. So the wrappers will become smaller and smaller 
until they can finally disappear.

[2] https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=123770
[3] https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=123754

So in short: please make sure that systemstl/tr1/functional wrapper around the 
good standard compliant functional header can work.

 Now we are on to figuring out why comphelper's having a linking error. It is 
 trying to build libcomphelperC52.so, but it cannot find -lstlport_sunpro.

lstlport_sunpro is no longer needed. If the header wrappers were used then the 
TR1 standard compliant C++ libraries cover everything that stlport was used 
for. Just find the Makefile that is responsible for the -lstlport_sunpro option 
and remove it.

What A Black Friday For Me :(

I have been using Apache Open Office for a couple of years now.
The I ran a program that would supposed to delete duplicate programs and it
wiped the program off my disk.

Now when I try re-loading Open Office from your site, the thing progresses
to the point of the green bar almost but not quite filling on PREPARING
YOUR INSTALLATION then it freezes, like for overnight, four times. Neither
it or the disk icon in the Windows 7 system tray can be removed unless I
reboot the computer.

Awful. I wish I could reload it. The program is really competing with
Microsoft Word. As a senior on Social Insecurity, your program is a

use it at work; Jira as a service is quite fast. But I regard it as

tl;dr all bug trackers suck, because the expectations of developers

workable compromise is something where you have all the data and can

A question

[David Stang]

For the last several years I have had a need to blast messages to a group of 
people.  An example might be, A canoe broke loose from its mooring in a 
windstorm.  And with a database of  around 500 property owners a notice needs 
to be sent advising this issue.

From the tone of messages, it appears to me that this could be something that 
could be easily done with the database AOO has in their package.

I have searched for solutions but have found no way to achieve this outcome.

Is there any possibly someone could develop an application to fill this need?  
Might it be something that already exists?

Any thoughts or suggestions/

Apache-owned trademark appears to be AndrOpen Office is forked
project from the Apache OpenOffice project. AndrOpen Office is not
affiliated with the Apache OpenOffice project., which is surely
nominative use.

Reporting a problem with the OpenOffice website

[Edwards, David]

Hi

Just gone to the main download page for Version 4 
(http://www.openoffice.org/download/) and I cannot find the download link. The 
links for downloading Extensions  Templates takes you to a download page but I 
am unable to find the OO4 download.

Here is a screen shot of what I see.

Nice one! Though OpenOffice on its own is someone else's trademark,
so care should be taken in abusing it.

Are you quite sure this applies? I presume Apache legal have in fact
done some hard thinking on this point.

Open Office in England

[David Aherne]

Dear Sir,

Is there a version of Open Office 4 with a UK English dictionary, one which 
will spell traveller with two Ls, not try to tell me it is spelled with only 
one L 

There are dozens of words it spells differently, which if I do not spot them 
make me look ignorant or worse still American. |:)

Thanking you in anticipation, 

Yours sincerely,

David Aherne.

Re: Regarding Rtf to PDF conversion using openoffice

[David Gerard]

We actually do DOC to PDF conversion at my work. This involves running
the DOC through OOo 3.2 on the Ubuntu 10.04 server in question. (OOo
3.2 is the Ubuntu distro version, so actually Go-oo; we previously did
the same thing in OOo 3.1 on a Solaris server using Sun OOo.)

We wanted to go directly from RTF to PDF, but the RTF import filter in
any of OOo, AOO or LO was not up to the task of reading the broken RTF
generated by Apache FOP.

The way we do it is to shell out to soffice from a Perl CGI. This is
pretty heavyweight, but the conversion doesn't run very often.

(Apparently you can set up OOo and descendants to work as a daemon,
but we could never get that to work properly.)

Does AOO use the new SourceForge Windows installer?

Is AOO using the installer in question, or its own?

Reporting a problem with the OpenOffice website

[David Heath]

I am trying to learn about opening WordPerfect files in the latest OpenOffice. 
I try links grom Google searches and I keep getting messages like this:

http://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/ is just one of the links that do not work

General Error
SQL ERROR [ mysqli ]

Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket 
'/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2) [2002]

An sql error occurred while fetching this page. Please contact an administrator 
if this problem persists.


I do not know all of the URLs that gave me the message, but wanted to let you 
know that you have a server problem.

Thanks for all of the work supporting OO,

Dave
