Asiri, thanks for feedback! soffice in /usr/share/ooo3 turned to be symbolic link to /usr/lib/ooo3/soffice script, which in turn uses /usr/lib/ooo3/soffice.bin - so after configuring, /usr/lib/ooo3 as server path, I was able to start it from XWiki. Custom script I previously had for starting soffice goes to history.
