Hi, I've encountered a problem when making a user's OpenOffice directory read-only. Though I realize this list has little to do with support, I thought I'd chance it, as no one in [email protected] could help much (see http://www.openoffice.org/servlets/ReadMsg?list=users&msgNo=121481 for that discussion). If anyone knows of a better forum in which to post it, please tell me.
Thanks, Alon The problem: ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Alon Keren <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Apr 11, 2006 1:16 PM Subject: Read-only access to a user's OpenOffice directory To: [email protected] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] System: Linux (LFS) OOo version: 2.0.0rc3 I wish to prevent users from altering their OOo directories (~/.openoffice.org2) and from saving files in them. To that end, I supply a user with a ready-made '~/.openoffice.org2', and disallow any write-access to it and its contents. A problem occures when I edit a file (.odt, .ods), save it, and then exit OOo: After exiting I get the following pop-up dialog: 'Error saving the document: user-home-dir/.openoffice.org2/user/basic/script.xlc/ General Error. Genereal input/output error.' When I press 'OK', it repeats, only with 'dialog.xlc' instead of 'script.xlc'. Apparently, OOo tries to replace those two files with something of its own making, so placing ready-made files is not an option. Does anyone know of a way to go around this, either by means of configuring the already-installed OOo, or by means of altering the source-code/installation process?
