Description of problem: None of the openoffice applications will start. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): openoffice.org-1:1.9.93-1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Try and start an openoffice application (icon menu or console call) Actual results: Nothing starts. Here is what can be seen when trying to launch them from the command line: [sal@localhost ~]$ oocalc /usr/lib/openoffice.org1.9.93/program/soffice: line 241: 20092 Erreur de segmentation "$sd_prog/$sd_binary" "$@" [sal@localhost ~]$ oowriter /usr/lib/openoffice.org1.9.93/program/soffice: line 241: 20146 Erreur de segmentation "$sd_prog/$sd_binary" "$@" [sal@localhost ~]$ oodraw /usr/lib/openoffice.org1.9.93/program/soffice: line 241: 20161 Erreur de segmentation "$sd_prog/$sd_binary" "$@" [sal@localhost ~]$ ooimpress /usr/lib/openoffice.org1.9.93/program/soffice: line 241: 20172 Erreur de segmentation "$sd_prog/$sd_binary" "$@" [sal@localhost ~]$ ooffice /usr/lib/openoffice.org1.9.93/program/soffice: line 241: 20183 Erreur de segmentation "$sd_prog/$sd_binary" "$@" [sal@localhost ~]$ oobase /usr/lib/openoffice.org1.9.93/program/soffice: line 241: 20195 Erreur de segmentation "$sd_prog/$sd_binary" "$@" [sal@localhost ~]$ oomath /usr/lib/openoffice.org1.9.93/program/soffice: line 241: 20208 Erreur de segmentation "$sd_prog/$sd_binary" "$@" [sal@localhost ~]$ ooviewdoc /usr/lib/openoffice.org1.9.93/program/soffice: line 241: 20221 Erreur de segmentation "$sd_prog/$sd_binary" "$@" For the translation, "Erreur de segmentation" means segfault. Expected results: The appropriate OOo application should start. Additional info: OOo used to work pretty well, though I cannot relly tell when it stopped working. Possibly after last yum update (23/04) or sometime last week.
I get the same error in the english version. I ran yum -y update on saturday April 23rd and it completed, so I'm at fc4t2, kernel 2.6.11-1.1261_FC4_x86_64, everything install. I do these complete installs over and over and file bug reports, but I'm getting the exact same behavior Sylvain is, so I'll just chime in that it's not an isolated incident. /usr/lib/openoffice.org1.9.93/program/soffice: line 230: 3689 Segmentation fault "${sd_prog}"/pagein -L"${sd_prog}" ${sd_pagein_args} /usr/lib/openoffice.org1.9.93/program/soffice: line 241: 3690 Segmentation fault "$sd_prog/$sd_binary" "$@" Jason
OK I went back to kernel 2.6.11-1.1251_FC4_x86_64 and the new openoffice works fine. I don't know how to debug a kernel so that's all the info I have.
