In the file...

<KT_INSTALLDIR>/openoffice/program/bootstraprc (e.g. /home/joe/ktdms/openoffice/program/bootstraprc)

Change the line...

to

UserInstallation=file:////<KT_INSTALLDIR>/openoffice/settings (e.g. UserInstallation=file:////joe/ktdms/openoffice/settings)

• Step 2:

Delete the following file...

<KT_INSTALLDIR>/openoffice/settings/.lock (e.g. /home/joe/ktdms/openoffice/settings/.lock)

• Step 3:

Use "dmsctl.sh stop" to stop the server (ignore "kill" errors) and "dmsctl.sh start" to start it again.

Execute:

ps aux |grep soffice

You should see a line in the output containing the following if it is working.

soffice.bin -headless -invisible -accept=socket,host=localhost,port=2002;urp;
