Bug#189944: openoffice.org: The configuration service is not available
Dear openoffice.org maintainers,
I've fixed the problem. I get an idea of the solution from the message I sent
to the list at
http://lists.debian.org/debian-openoffice/2003/debian-openoffice-200306/msg00072.html
. Since the error message seems to indicate the problem was caused by X not
able to find the bsmi* fonts (for Big5 truetype fonts), I decided to remove
all the local configuration files and remove the ttf-arphic-bsmi00lp and
tfm-arphic-bsmi00lp and did "defoma-app -v update x-ttcidfont-conf truetype"
and then restart x. Then openoffice.org comes back to life.
However, I'm not sure why there was such a problem with the
ttf-arphic-bsmi00lp package. Since I usually do not use Big5 fonts, the
removal is fine for me.
Unfortunately, it crashes much more frequent than before (when using OOo 1.0.2
and earlier).
Thanks for your attention and I guess you may close the bug if you like.
