uname -a FreeBSD bolivia.potentialtech.com 5.4-RELEASE-p1 FreeBSD 5.4-RELEASE-p1 #1: Fri May 27 01:08:00 EDT 2005 wmoran@bolivia.potentialtech.com:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/WORKING i386 open pkg_info | grep office openoffice.org-2.0.0_1 Integrated wordprocessor/dbase/spreadsheet/drawing/chart/ OO works fine, unless I try to connect to a document over NFS. Then all goes badly. I consistenly get a "general input/output error while accessing <filename>" This occurs when trying to open previously created .sxc and .odt docs, as well as when trying to create new documents. I'm having the exact same problem on a laptop, which is nearly the same FreeBSD setup. OO 1.x has worked fine on this setup for quite a while. I recently upgrade to OO 2 and *boom* can't work off the server. If I copy any of these files from the server to my local HDD, all is well. I chmoded the files to 777, but it doesn't make any difference. I have never had any other problems with this NFS server prior to this (and I don't at this time, either). The file server is still FreeBSD 4. I'm going to try to do some NFS debugging, but I'm not an NFS expert by any stretch of the imagination, so I thought I'd a) first see if anyone else was familiar with this issue b) see if anyone had any advice on how to proceed with debugging. -- Bill Moran Potential Technologies http://www.potentialtech.com
