... cut ... On further testing both, PATH (issue 127965) and current home directory (issue 127966), may have the same cause. When starting AOO from the Apple terminal (command line), the environment is untouched and therefore everything can work. However, if starting the AOO instance from the Apple menu (Application folder and clicking on OpenOffice.org to start it), then the environment gets crippled unfortunately, causing incomplete/wrong/wiped out environment values. So speculating that the installation setups scripts that cripple the environment AOO gets started in. Will update the above two issues to point to each other and supply a Beanshell macro that reads the environment settings and writes them into its swriter document. Supplying also the two AOO swriter documents, one being off the "command line AOO", one being off the "menu AOO". ---rony P.S.: On Windows (this is still with AOO 4.1.5) the environment remains intact when starting AOO from the Windows menu. This should be also the case for the Unix based AOO installations. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org
