installation issue

[sjahmad]

Hello,

I have written a macro which does ppt-jpeg conversion. I've run it from the command prompt and it works fine as long as I use my own account or the root account on a linux box. However when I call the command prompt conversion from within a Perl script, it doesnt work. The perl script does do the conversion as long as I run the script from within my account or root account. However when I try to call the perl script from the NOBODY account, the conversion doesnt work.

Do I need to run the openoffice setup for NOBODY account and install the macro again? I'm kinda confused here because I installed the macro using the library deployment tool pkgchk and my understanding is that it installs the macro for all the users.

Could someone please help me with this issue.

Thanks

"Doesn't work" means what exactly? If you are running it headless with xvfb and if it's just sitting there doing nothing, then I assume it's waiting for somone to finish the new user wizard.
