Re: OpenOffice 1.1rc3-Linux on FreeBSD 4.6.2 installation problems

Do you have linprocfs mounted?

I think it's required for 4.6.2
 

I just mounted it anyway, to try that:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~ $ ls -la /compat/linux/proc
total 4
drwxr-xr-x   2 root  wheel  512 Sep 18  2002 .
drwxr-xr-x  12 root  wheel  512 Sep 18  2002 ..

procfs  44   0   100%/proc
linprocfs   44   0   100%/usr/compat/linux/proc
- and OOo installation failed exactly the same way.

How annoying ...

Not on either box (unless you mean something that doesn't
show with df). 4.6.2 box:

/dev/ad0s1   13227720  5020460  820726038%/c
BTW, I also looked at the version of linux_base-7 - the 4.8 box
has linux_base-7.1-2, whereas the 4.6.2 box has linux_base-7.1-3!
As a last note: OpenOffice.orf 1.0.3 for Linux installed and worked
perfectly on both systems.

OpenOffice 1.1rc3-Linux on FreeBSD 4.6.2 installation problems

2003-09-07 Thread David Gerard
We just downloaded and installed the Linux binary of OOo 1.1rc3
on my wife's FreeBSD 4.8 box with no problems. My 4.6.2 box,
however, doesn't want to play.
I untar the install files into a directory in my home directory, run
./setup and it puts up an unpacking window (box opening and
progress bar), then a text box saying 'The script file is now being
read. Please wait a moment ...' - then an alert box saying
'Important program files were not found. The installation set may
be damaged.'
The thing is, this is the *exact* same tarball which worked on the
4.8 box.
Has anyone else encountered this? Any idea what it means?

I do have linux_base-6 and linux_base-7 installed, as does the
4.8 box.
(We also tried the FreeBSD native tarball, but it insists on trying
to install in /usr/local and doesn't seem to give the option of
installing to a home directory.)
