SO8 setup fails. manual install: startup fails

Hi

I have a problem setting up just downloaded SO8 release on linux (RH Enterprise WS 3.0).

./setup fails with:

<div class="pre"><pre>[piper@localhost unpack_staroffice]$ ./setup

RUNNING

Running installer

install

/usr/java/jre1.5.0_05/bin/java

/usr/java/jre1.5.0_05/bin/java -DREGISTRY_SUFFIX=_Office install

Attach to native process failed

0022</pre></div>

Startup of course fails:<div class="pre"><pre>

[piper@localhost ~]$ soffice

/etc/staroffice8/program/javaldx: error while loading shared libraries: libuno_sal.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

/etc/staroffice8/program/soffice.bin: error while loading shared libraries: libvcl680li.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory</pre></div>

I am running: <div class="pre"><pre>[piper@localhost unpack_staroffice]$ uname -a

Linux localhost.localdomain 2.6.9-5.ELsmp #1 SMP Wed Jan 5 19:29:47 EST 2005 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux</pre></div>I did of course tried running stuff as a root.

java -DREGISTRY_SUFFIX=_Office install

to run install.class doesn't run well for some reason. It throws an exception:<table border="0" align="center" width="90%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td class="SmallText"><b>Quote:</b></td></tr><tr>& lt;td class="quote">

Attach to native process failed

</td></tr></table>

Any ideas?

Thanks for help.

Hi Guys,

I did follow the instruction of the User Guide of Sun, but I got and error whenever runing the ./setup command. I get the following error.

"./setup

Unpacking...

tail: cannot open `+227' for reading: No such file or directory

Checksumming...

I did download again the SO8 from sun.com and still have the same error.

Any suggestion.

Thanks

eden office # sh setup

The issue is the use of the 'tail' command. Do the follwing and the setup script should work:export _POSIX2_VERSION=199209Note that it looks like soffice only works on systems that have rpm installed.
