Question

Installation of OpenOffice (CF9 | CentOS)

Had OpenOffice installed with CF9, when I tried to use it, it threw a 'please locate OO install' error, so found the headless... etc string and had that applied, NOW it's throwing a "com.sun.star.task.ErrorCodeIOException:".

Actual test code is EXTREMELY basic

<cfset doc_source = ExpandPath('test.doc') >

<cfset doc_result = ExpandPath('test.pdf')>

<cfdocument filename="#doc_result#" srcfile="#doc_source#" pdfa="true" format="pdf" />

Installation instructions on the adobe site are a little bit of a joke and I can't find any sort of human based tech support.
If anyone has run into this, please shed some light.
Thanks.

    Hello,

    Did you find a solution for this?  This was as far as I was able to get as well.  If not, the only workaround I can think of is to run Open Office remotely and configure CF to use it instead.  A co-worker was able to make this function on the Win platform.

    This was via hosting company support, but they applied the headless mode command and have OO set to run remotely even though it's running on the same machine. The thumbnails aren't correct but the app is working somewhat and at this point I'm happy to have anything at all.

    Hate to say this but looking at jumping ship to ruby/rails as I'm really enjoying working with this language/framework.

    Thanks for your help.  We got it working here running OO as a headless daemon.  Previously, we had configured CF to run OO locally but that failed with a com.sun.star.task.ErrorCodeIOException error.
