Description of problem: New upgrade of Fedora 26. I start Libreoffice, splash screen loads and then quits. When I attempt to start from command line I get the message: $ libreoffice ** (soffice:31967): WARNING **: Couldn't connect to accessibility bus: Failed to connect to socket /tmp/dbus-PWekjtHyG8: Connection refused Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): $ uname -a Linux milano.local 4.11.9-300.fc26.i686 #1 SMP Wed Jul 5 17:01:19 UTC 2017 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux $ rpm -qa |grep libreoffice libreoffice-ure-5.3.4.2-2.fc26.i686 libreoffice-impress-5.3.4.2-2.fc26.i686 libreoffice-pdfimport-5.3.4.2-2.fc26.i686 libreoffice-base-5.3.4.2-2.fc26.i686 libreoffice-graphicfilter-5.3.4.2-2.fc26.i686 libreoffice-writer-5.3.4.2-2.fc26.i686 libreoffice-core-5.3.4.2-2.fc26.i686 libreoffice-calc-5.3.4.2-2.fc26.i686 libreoffice-ure-common-5.3.4.2-2.fc26.noarch libreoffice-langpack-en-5.3.4.2-2.fc26.i686 libreoffice-gtk2-5.3.4.2-2.fc26.i686 libreoffice-emailmerge-5.3.4.2-2.fc26.i686 libreoffice-x11-5.3.4.2-2.fc26.i686 libreoffice-pyuno-5.3.4.2-2.fc26.i686 libreoffice-draw-5.3.4.2-2.fc26.i686 libreoffice-opensymbol-fonts-5.3.4.2-2.fc26.noarch libreoffice-writer2xhtml-1.0.2-20.fc26.i686 libreoffice-gtk3-5.3.4.2-2.fc26.i686 libreoffice-data-5.3.4.2-2.fc26.noarch libreoffice-math-5.3.4.2-2.fc26.i686 How reproducible: Everytime Steps to Reproduce: 1.

There was a new libreoffice in testing repo so I tried that. Same outcome as above: $ libreoffice ** (soffice:496): WARNING **: Couldn't connect to accessibility bus: Failed to connect to socket /tmp/dbus-PWekjtHyG8: Connection refused $ rpm -qa|grep libreoffice libreoffice-emailmerge-5.3.4.2-3.fc26.i686 libreoffice-ure-common-5.3.4.2-3.fc26.noarch libreoffice-opensymbol-fonts-5.3.4.2-3.fc26.noarch libreoffice-gtk2-5.3.4.2-3.fc26.i686 libreoffice-calc-5.3.4.2-3.fc26.i686 libreoffice-core-5.3.4.2-3.fc26.i686 libreoffice-pdfimport-5.3.4.2-3.fc26.i686 libreoffice-pyuno-5.3.4.2-3.fc26.i686 libreoffice-data-5.3.4.2-3.fc26.noarch libreoffice-draw-5.3.4.2-3.fc26.i686 libreoffice-graphicfilter-5.3.4.2-3.fc26.i686 libreoffice-gtk3-5.3.4.2-3.fc26.i686 libreoffice-math-5.3.4.2-3.fc26.i686 libreoffice-impress-5.3.4.2-3.fc26.i686 libreoffice-langpack-en-5.3.4.2-3.fc26.i686 libreoffice-ure-5.3.4.2-3.fc26.i686 libreoffice-writer2xhtml-1.0.2-20.fc26.i686 libreoffice-writer-5.3.4.2-3.fc26.i686 libreoffice-x11-5.3.4.2-3.fc26.i686 libreoffice-base-5.3.4.2-3.fc26.i686
Performed upgrade on x86_64 laptop and libreoffice works correctly there
I wonder if its the i686 java jvm vs recent kernel problem
These are the versions [lelia@milano ~]$ rpm -qa|grep openjdk java-1.8.0-openjdk-devel-1.8.0.131-7.b12.fc26.i686 java-1.8.0-openjdk-1.8.0.131-7.b12.fc26.i686 java-1.8.0-openjdk-headless-1.8.0.131-7.b12.fc26.i686 [lelia@milano ~]$ rpm -q kernel kernel-4.11.9-200.fc25.i686 kernel-4.11.9-300.fc26.i686 kernel-4.11.10-300.fc26.i686 I updated the kernel tonight and it is still dying. I would troubleshoot more but I don't know where to look. I did create a new i686 vm just to acertain that it wasn't built up junk (this one has been upgraded a bunch of times) but the new vm behaves the same way. Thanks for getting back to me.
Some things I've been seeing while researching make me wonder if it is a conflict between dbus.service and dbus-launch (I am using xfce4; dbus-launch is in /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d/00-start-message-bus.sh and /etc/xdg/xfce4/xinitrc. I just don't know enough about dbus.
I rather expect this is a duplicate of bug 1468436 given the i686 arch tag
(In reply to Caolan McNamara from comment #7) > I rather expect this is a duplicate of bug 1468436 given the i686 arch tag This is the same as what I'm seeing, and disabling Java requirements for LibreOffice (in my case, LanguageTool for Writer) worked around the problem for me. (I haven't tried reverting to kernel 4.11.5, as suggested in the other bug.)
Please see the workaround in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1468436#c23. If this addresses your issue, this is a duplicate bug (I'm pretty certain it is, anyway).
This is also a problem in F27 i686. Removing the java components makes it usable, but I need the xslt filters.
David H. Gutteridge thank you for posting the work around. That works on F27 also.
I am closing this as it isn't a Libreoffice bug.
