Thanks for your reply. I looked at all the results of ps -aux last night and didn't see any service that would affect it. I solved the issue earlier today. Long story short, libreoffice needs a directory to write a temp file to and it writes to whatever is in $HOME so I needed to put export HOME=/apache/writable/ directory and that solved it.
