So ,when from CLI (staying in KDE ) a navigate to a mounted partition from Win 7 when I have stored old files (tables,docs etc.) as root /otherwise can’t do ,of course as you know and I type the command to open that file for working on it I get the above message.NO NEED to change the owner or rights ,as root.Till now I didn’t have this problem.
I did also this think:with chown user folder file path/chmod 0777 and after launch the application I get the same result/ERROR.
BUT if from KDE I make double click with the mouse it’s working,OF COURSE ,in this case with chown/chmod done BEFORE.
Why ,do I have this strange behaviour ,when I think I know right the CLI is the strongest ,fastest and easiest way to work.
Till now as I sad I navigated to the folder file /from mounted win partition and with oocalc,ooimpress etc as root I did what I needed without any trouble.
The problem occured recently and I don’t have explanation for and in plus keep ,please in mind ,from GUI/KDE double click and it is working.
Really ,why?
Other:opening directly oocalc as root from CLI staying in KDE from usr/bin / the same ERROR.uf…
Not sure I follow you exactly but IMO you root doesn’t know the path to oocalc.
IMHO, the right answer is GUI double click, the CLI for uid (and root) should be
Because ,as I told you I have some files in win partition and from linux I must work on those.
I can open them as normal user but I can’t modify.
So from CLI as root with kDE working ,just I open a Terminal,I can open those files and I can modify.I did this manny times.Now it doesn’t work.
Strange is the fact when I am logged directly as root from restart the CLI doesn’t work but from KDE/GUI as root directly (with startx or whatever) it’s working.
Believe me I now very sure in the past in 11.2 no problem.
My apology, I’m not clear what CLI is not working in your statement:
Strange is the fact when I am logged directly as root from restart the CLI doesn’t work but from KDE/GUI as root directly (with startx or whatever) it’s working.
Are you getting error messages when the CLI doesn’t work?
Oocalc requires X system, right? Startx and whatever makes sense, as does KDE/GUI terminal windows.
“I am logged directly as root from restart the CLI” means what? X system or no X system running?

BUT as regular user I can’t modify my files from win partition!
And I need usually to do this.
So could I get some help?
Thank you in advance to all.
Sorry, I really don’t have answers for you, I’m just a sounding board.
My thought, if you’ve logged in a user, then su to root, kde4 can’t find /root/.kde4/socket-NMyL/kdeinit4__0 or the kdeinit to start a display session.

Or use “su -” instead of “su”.

If your question is what changed that you can’t do,
oocalc
I don’t know what changed.
Maybe the lastest update (mid-July for me) of OO changed the way OO handles execution. If the document is .xls did it require a password?
kdesu
cd
oocalc
That code above for gnomesu works without error, but non-root files open read-only?

Then correct this. Open them as user.
Assuming it is an vfat or ntfs partition, change the default “fmask=133,dmask=022” with 0117 and
0007, resp, in fstab.

You have to umount the partition, edit fstab, change as pertinent, save, and mount the ntfs or vfat
partition again. All this in a CLI, don’t you dare to touch an icon to mount it!
Then, as user, test that you have write access to the partition by touching a file in the documents
directory.
If it doesn’t, paste output of the “mount” command and exact output of the touch command, and the
fstab line you edited.
When this works, then use calc as normal user to edit that file.

thank you.
but is a problem here.
So if the situation occurs only for the win partition I agree with you.
BUT The SAME situation occurs (from CLI as root) also for the FILES belongs to suse system(/home as example I checked this.)let 's suppose as idea I have a office file in root directory /root.I must umount this or /home .?.You know this can’t be done ,the system doesn’t allow when its running to umount a BUSY under any operating system PARTITION!
So ,I still believe I have a problem with the system,NOT with the PARTITION/right,permission,mounting,umounting).
KDE has a problem or OpenOfficeOrg has a bug.I will try from GNOME and I will inform you.
IN GNOME I HAVE NO PROBLEM ,I repeat I have no problem.Everything is working OK .ooo WORKS very well as I want and as I know it must work.
So ,for me is clear:THE PROBLEM I HAVE IS WITH KDE!
Now,what is wrong in KDE?WHAT I SHOULD DO?HOW CAN be fixed THE KDE ERROR MENTIONED ABOVE at the begining?
I put it again here:
pushy@NMyL:/home> cd /usr/bin
pushy@NMyL:/usr/bin> su
Password:
NMyL:/usr/bin # oocalc OpenOffice.org(18666): Session bus not found

Warning: connect() failed: : No such file or directory
KCrash cannot reach kdeinit, launching directly.
drkonqi(18668): Session bus not found
NMyL:/usr/bin #
So,having these new info,could I get some help from someone? If not ,I can work in GNOME,but having a error in KDE,in system practically,it’s possible,later or sooner ,this to make other troubles ,if it’s let unsolved.
NMyL:/ # kdbus
kdeinit4_wrapper: Warning: connect(/root/.kde4/socket-NMyL/kdeinit4__0) failed: : No such file or directory

process 21864: type invalid 0 not a basic type

KCrash: Application ‘kdbus’ crashing…

I believe I am right:finally kdbus causes the problem also to oocalc.
I thing somehow it’s a bug or something else.DBUS/KDE is crashing.

Why on earth do you use “su”? You have to use “su -”, as I told you, with a dash.
The way you are doing it, root is trying to use the session bus of the USER, and thus, denied
access. This is intentional.

One more thing: DO NOT change to /usr/bin.
