StarOffice 7 problem on Mandrake 10.0
[This also posted in software forum]
Fresh installation of Mandrake Official 10.0 and StarOffice 7. Adabas and Product Update 3 are also installed. Java refused to install itself, saying that there was no console. Sub-directories in which installed:
/usr/local/staroffice
/usr/local/adabas
Twice I have changed settings in Tools -> Options including page size (Letter to A4), language (US English to UK English) and several others. OK and exit program. On restarting, I am again greeted with the invitation to register, although I have earlier said that I am already registered. The changed settings have gone back to their defaults, i.e., Letter, US English, etc.
Once I got this message: StarOffice 7 <2>
Could not create backup copy.
I have made two one-page files and taken print-outs. Each time, on quitting the program I received the messages
Error saving the document file: ///usr/local/staroffice/user/basic/script.xlc/:
General Error.
General input/output error.
followed by the same as above except file dialog.slc/:
I have never had this problem with SO 7 in Windows. The configuration file of SO 5.2, though, would get corrupted, so after quitting the program I would routinely over-write it with a good copy.
