OpenSuse 12.1 LibreOffice 3.5 (build-413)
If I open Tools-Options-LibreOffice-User data I can’t edit the data.
I installed libreoffice again but still ca’t edit user data.
I deleted /home/myName/.config/libreoffice and started the program again.
The entry is recreated but without asking for user data or giving the option to edit.
All the fields in “user data” are empty.
Any suggestions where I can find/edit my user data?
Thanks in advance Teunis
Do you have java installed ?
Can you create a new user and check whether this problem does occur for new user too ?
Yes java is installed.
It is getting stranger:
Another user on the same machine is able to edit his user data!
Do
su -c 'chown YOUR_USERNAME_HERE /home/YOUR_USERNAME_HERE/ -R'
and try again.

i’ll guess the user who has no problem with setting LibreOffice user
data has never messed up the permissions in their /home as root,
leaving parts of it owned by root…

I tried your code snippet.
It tells me cannot access /home/my name/.gvfs permission denied
It did not work

Please copy-paste the entire sequence, from command to the next empty
command prompt, and put all of it inside codetags.
Please use code tags for printouts and commands. Advanced editor, ‘#’
button. Posting in Code Tags - A Guide
And a hint: classical Linux tools do not say anything on success, only
on errors. My guess is that the code succeed on all files and
directories, except on one, and told you so.
So try again with libreoffice.

teunis@linux-8nsb:~> su -c 'chown teunis /home/teunis/ -R'
Password:
chown: cannot access `/home/teunis/.gvfs': Permission denied
The .gvfs directory looks strange Here an output of the command “~/home/teunis # ls -l”
-rw------T 1 teunis users 328 Feb 6 2012 .gtkrc-2.0-kde4
d????????? ? ? ? ? ? .gvfs
drwx-----T 2 teunis users 4096 Apr 1 09:50 .hplip
Still no edit possibility in LibreOffice user data
Does anyone has an idea where the user data are saved in:
/Home/.libreoffice/3-suse/user
Thanks for your attention
AFAIK the .gvfs is not the issue, though it’s permissions are weird indeed. ’
The user data are stored in /home/teunis/.config/libreoffice. Please show output of
ls -ld /home/teunis
ls -ld /home/teunis/.config
ls -ld /home/teunis/.config/libreoffice

Not really - .gvfs is a FUSE filesystem, and FUSE filesystems are only
available to the user who mounted them.

It is a virtual filesystem that has some weird effects. Ignore those
errors and strange listings related to it. Known issue

Dear Knuth. Here is the output. I don’t see anything wrong

teunis@linux-8nsb:~> ls -ld /home/teunis/.config

Thanks for the cooperation Teunis
Does anybody have a suggestion on how to send MIDI messages from a
libreoffice Impress presentation to a MIDI device?
I want to send some MIDI Program Change messages out when the next
page/slide is advanced. I have Jack running and a number of recognised
writeable MIDI devices wired, but I cannot think of how to embed the message
in a midi file and make it play to a particular device via Jack.
Is that possible at all?
Thank you

I just realised I posted this under a different thread. I am very sorry!

suggest you start over…
this time include you operating system and version…
your desktop environment and version (if used)…
LibreOffice version…
and, use a new subject line specific to your question…
and, though the OP created a “libreoffice and MIDI” thread in the
applications forum, i think it might should have (could have?) been
better in the multimedia forum…
probably even better would be posting to a Jack or LibreOffice forum
(yours is probably a question better/faster answered by one of those
gurus, rather than a openSUSE guru with possible Jack/LibreOffice user)
i’ll leave it to you to decide where to post…but if you visit the
forums in their http form you can read things like:
Applications - Questions about desktops (KDE, Gnome, XFCE, etc.),
software applications (configuration, usage, bugs, documentation)
Multimedia - Questions about media applications, codecs (DVD, music,
video, pdf) configuration (usage, bugs)
Hardware - Questions about drivers, peripheral cabling, configuration
