LibreOffice will not start in fluxbox(no desktop enviroment)?

So I started setting up a new build for arch and all I wanted on it was LibreOffice. However, unlike other programs(e.g firefox) it would not start in a plain fluxbox session. When I ran the command "libreoffice --impress", a green box with the logo would pop up and text would out put to the console inside fluxbox. Then in seconds the green border-less box would vanish and the console would stop outing text. It seems as if it is crashing but I don't know why. Does anyone have any ideas why this is happening?

start impress from command line and if there is an error, paste the output here.

What's the output of:

cat /etc/profile.d/libreo*.sh

You should set the VCLPLUGIN to gtk.
