And you got valid answers from me and from Florian for all operating systems (since you don't tell us yours). > The fact is, Libreoffice, for a long time, simply did not work at all > with Java7. Huh? Really? Which issue number was that? I can't believe that any LO version had been released with such a show stopper issue. The only issue I am aware of is that Windows users could not use any Java features because they pointed their 32 bit office suite to 64 bit Java runtimes. The issue was that the option dialog did not hide inadequate runtime versions. My LO 3.5 (64 bit, shipped with Ubuntu 12.4) works with any 64 bit Java I throw at it, including the latest Java 8.25, 6.33 shipped with Ubuntu 12.4 and 7.65. At least I can start the document wizards, Base forms, Base wizards and the report builder extension, configure another JRE, restart the office and start again document wizards, Base forms, Base wizards and report builder. -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: users+unsubscr...@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
