Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello, I can't seem to get Star Office 5.2 to start up for me. I installed it from ports on a 4.2-RELEASE system but when I launch "soffice", all I see is the big setup splash screen that says: Star Office 5.2 is already installed in the /usr/local/office52 directory (Yes, this is nice, but I'd like to use it now...) What I tried: cd /usr/ports/editors/staroffice52 make install # The network installation seems to work logout from su cd /usr/ports/editors/staroffice52 make install-user Get the "already installed" splash page Try: add /usr/local/office52/program to PATH and run setup (same) run soffice (same again). I also looked at the makefile and changed the net install option from "/net" to "-net" (it looked like a typo) but that didn't seem to change anything either. Doesn't matter if it's the older or latest ports collection: build from 4.2-RELEASE ports tree pkg_delete and cvsup the latest ports tree Did I miss a step or what?
