Libreoffice doesn't start as user

rayman · 2011-07-30 10:01:21

When I'm logged in as my primary user(myself), libreoffice just won't start. It used to work fine, but it won' start any more. No errors, it just doesn't do anything. I've renamed any config dir/file of libreoffice in my home dir, but it still won't start. On another user, "test", it boots up fine.

I'm using gnome 3 by the way.

Then maybe you should reset your configs. Move or remove the folder ~/.config/.libreoffice and try it again.

"I've renamed any config dir/file of libreoffice in my home dir, but it still won't start"

I already tried that, but it had no effect.

Please run soffice from a command line and pate errors

is .config present and writable? do mv .config dot_config.bak and try again. If the problem persists, do the same with all .* file until you find the culprit.

I did(actually, I ran "libreoffice" from command line), but as I said, "no errors".

.config is present, and writable, since libreoffice does write something in it when it "tries" to start up. I already renamed my .libreoffice dir, but I'll try that too.
