[libreoffice-users] Re: LibreOffice on Win2008 with RDP terminal services
I was able to resolve my problem. Here's what I learned. It appears that LibreOffice creates some sort of session/temp file within the user profile folder while LO is in use. The user profile folder was located in c:\users\username\appdata\roaming\LibreOffice\3. When more than one terminal session was logged in using the same account name LO in each session is trying to read/write files in the same folder causing conflict. Looking through documentation, it appears that this path is configurable via the bootstrap.ini file in C:\Program Files\LibreOffice 3.6\program. There is a UserInstallation variable in there that utilizes a $SYSUSERCONFIG variable. My system did not have this env variable set so it was using whatever the default path was for LibreOffice. I created a batch script that is run on login that creates an env variable name SYSUSERCONFIG and points it to a temp file location that is session-specific. That way each terminal session gets its own path. This seems to have resolved my problem. -- View this message in context: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/LibreOffice-on-Win2008-with-RDP-terminal-services-tp4028002p4028531.html Sent from the Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
[libreoffice-users] LibreOffice on Win2008 with RDP terminal services
I'm trying to use LibreOffice (latest version) in a class I'm teaching. The computer lab we are using is made up of thin clients that attach to a Windows 2008 R2 server with RDP. All of the students log in with the same user account (I am not able to change this). The first computer (terminal session) to open LibreOffice Writer works fine. On all other machines, when opening LibreOffice, the user instantly sees the document recovery screen asking if they want to recover whatever document was open in session 1. I can cancel the document recovery and Writer opens to a new document. However, after about 1 minute (even with no activity), it crashes and closes. I thought perhaps temp files were part of the problem, but each session that is logged in to the server gets its own temp directory. Looking at the LibreOffice Paths in the Tools-Options menu, the Temp path is correctly set to be unique per session. I also tried changing the Backup path to %temp% thinking that this might resolve the document recovery issue, but it did not. Has anyone run into anything similar and hopefully resolved it? -- View this message in context: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/LibreOffice-on-Win2008-with-RDP-terminal-services-tp4028002.html Sent from the Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
