CFDOCUMENT OpenOffice Problem

I'm having a problem getting cfdocument conversion to work.

<cfdocument format="pdf"

srcfile="d:\test.doc"

filename=""d:\test.pdf"

>

This code generates the following error "Could not determine OpenOffice installation."

I have OpenOffice 3.2 installed, and in the CF Administrator I have the path specified correctly.  It gives me the green confirmation message when I set the path.

I have tried this on three different servers.  Two were Windows 2008 64-bit and one was Windows 2003 32-bit.   All three are ColdFusion 9.01 Enterprise multi-instance.

Any thoughts on why I can't seem to config ANY of them to make OpenOffice conversions work?

    I get the same thing.

    There's a bug for this - http://cfbugs.adobe.com/cfbugreport/flexbugui/cfbugtracker/main.html#bugId=83611 - which is closed.  There's nothing in the bug tracker though to indicate why it's closed though.

    Can anyone get this to work?

    Is there some config option that needs to be done which isn't immediately apparent?  All the docs say is to set that path, if the install is local.
