YOu need to make sure you have the linux emulator installed.  It's in
ports/emulators/linux_lib

I run StarOffice on my 2.2.6 laptop and 2.2.6-stable desktop.  Runs
fine.

I'd recommend the StarOffice 4.0.  I like it better.  You can get it
from www.stardivision.com.  It's linux as well, but runs fine.  The
setup script is what you want to use.
