Hello,
in few weeks ago i upgraded openoffice from 3.0 to 3.1 . but now it seems the upgrade didn’t find an sdk for ooo 3.1 . where can i locate ooo 3.1 sdk using Yast?
the ooo 3.1 version is giving me real headaches >:(. is there an easy method to revert to ooo 3.0 or even to previous versions like ooo 2.4 using opensuse 11.1 Yast?
i have the repository for stable openoffice for opensuse 11.1 enabled ,but i can’t find ooo 3.1 sdk .

any help setting my ooo and ooo sdk e system is much appreciated.
thanks

To go back to an older version using yast>software:
Filter on openoffice and installed It should give you a choice of what’s available.
Choose the older version and downgrade.

Yast give no indication of what openoffice version we can choose from. it just offer to install/update the latest 3.1 . i use OOo repo (URL: Index of /repositories/OpenOffice.org:/STABLE/openSUSE_11.1) . it seems this repo only has version 3.1 or am i wrong? what are the repositories of openoffice that contains older ooo versions like 2.x and 3.0 ?

thanks much

3.0 is the default install for opensuse 11.1, so to go back to 3.0, you need to choose Index of /distribution/11.1/repo/oss/suse/x86_64 or the install disc as your repository.

I managed to install the OOo 3.1 SDK.
however there is a problem which causing me real headaches !

I use Netbeans IDE to develop a openoffice java Addon. I set my java OOo addon project to use same JDK 6 used when installing OOo 3.1
in openoffice ->options-Java it is set to use JDK 6.
now when i run my OOo from netbeans IDE i get this evil error message : defective java runtime!

below is also the debug log from netbeans when running the OOo addon application.

can someone point me whet could be this problem about? i did’t get this problem before ,but i guess when i upgraded to OOo 3.1 from OOo3.0 i no more can run my openoffice addon from netbeans.
any help is much appreciated.
