Hi,
I've installed recently OpenOffice.org 3.1 on Centos 5.3. I use OOo in
headless mode. I have no problem when running as root, but I'd prefer
run it as non-root user (oooserver user). When I run the script in
debug mode this is the output:
sh -x/tmp/ooo-headless-nonroot start

Alan,
We set actimeo=3 and this has significantly improved our problem.
I saw this value in an HP thread and seemed reasonable.
Thanks for the heads up.

Hi all,
It appears that on my nice little CentOS 5.3 machines Apache only
allows me to store content in directories which are under /var/www/
For instance, putting content in /var/www/test and defining the following alias:

then accessing it under http://hostname/test w

Maybe they would, but there is no content on the Centos wiki on the
