Good day,

I installed the LO update successfully -or so it seemed-,
but now none of the apps will start; I get a quick logo and subsequently nothing happens.
When started from the cli I don't get any message whatsoever either.
I reinstalled 3 times for that matter.

Anyone?

         Thanks, Hoos.

Ditto! works fine from the menu or using the konsole command

libreoffice3.6 --writer

hoos - maybe the LibreOffice process(es) aren't being released from memory, so you could try opening System Activity using Ctrl + Esc keys and in the top search field enter  soffice

If you see an entry  soffice.bin select it/them and choose End Process...

Then try opening it.

If no entries are shown, try restarting your desktop which may help "flush" any other lingering processes

Just now updated to libreoffice 3.6 and all is working well here.

I'm getting the same here today and I haven't upgraded LO yet, so it's something else.

What I haven't done is reboot since I upgraded os-prober and pulled in all the raid and LVM dependencies, although it was working yesterday and I did those on Wednesday, but that's my next step.

Edit: Yep, reboot solved it.

Thanks menotu,

I flushed memory but that did't work.
However, I launched soffice (or one of the apps for that matter)
from cli as root and then everything works!!
So this seems to have something to do with permissions.

Cheers, Hoos.

Kjpetrie, same in your case?

by chance, do you have the new webmin installed?

[hoos]

Pinoc,

no I haven't.
OK, reboot.

Pinoc,

no I haven't.
OK, reboot.

what does that mean? ok, you will reboot or "ok, it works after a reboot"?

If it still doesn't work try to completely uninstall and then do a fresh install.
If it still does not work then you could try to delete the hidden folder ".libreoffice" in you Home-folder, and then start LO again.
good luck,
-p.

Reboot didn't work.
I already completely uninstalled twice and also removed the .libreoffice folder;
didn't work either.
But much to my surprise there is no .libreoffice folder to be found anymore!
So I created one but that doesn't make any difference.

Hoos,

sorry I forgot, the folder location ~/.libreoffice has changed with LO3.6.0 and is now at ~/config/libreoffice

Can you delete that one and then start LO again?

-p.

Alas, does not work either...

Edit: when launching LO a .lock file (144 B) appears under /config/libreoffice/3/user.

and if you create a new user-account, then start it there, does that work?
