Hi, Please excuse my cross-posting, but on users@openoffice.org I received no answer. Because this issue well might be Debian specific, I decided to resend to question at this place.
I've started working on Openoffice component development using the recently beta-released SDK. On requirement is to start Openoffice in server mode, i.e. Openoffice should listen on a TCP port using the urp protocol. The SDK documentation mentions two ways to achieve this: 1) call openoffice with "-accept=socket,port=8100;urp;" as argument string 2) use the <ooSetupConnectionURL> element in Setup.xml None of both ways works in my Debian enviroment. I use openoffice.org 1.0.2-1 on unstable Debian. The output is: $ killall soffice.bin $ ~/.openoffice/1.0.2/soffice "-accept=socket,port=8100;urp;" X IO Error It's the same with other ports, too. My questions: 1) Does anybody else have the same problems ? (When trying, please do not forge the "killall soffice.bin" !) 2) How can I gain more information about the reasons of the problem ? 3) How to overcome these problems ? Neither Google nor Openoffice Issuezilla gave me any hint. Thanks for any help, Holger
