Hi,

I tried to install openoffice-1.1 on FreeBSD 4.11RC3 and I found the following
problem:
- the port compiles without problem.
- after deletion of the .sversionrc file, I performed a local install without
  problem
- when I try to run openoffice, a window appears informing that "The application
  cannot be started. The configuration service is not available. Start the setup
application to repair the installation from CD or the folder containing the
installation packages".
- I tried the "repair" procedure but the window still appears.
- Tried a "full" installation and the same windows appears.

I don't know if I did something wrong or if the port is broken. I even don't
know which informations are needed to fix this problem.

I ran the tests in the "stoc" directory (according to
http://porting.openoffice.org/freebsd/testing.html) and all tests in the stoc
directory ended successfully.

I will be very gratefull for all forms of help and I am really to send
additional informations concerning my config.

Regards,

Willy
