|
|
Hello, I hope I do not post a duplicate - but i tried such many key words to find a solution for my problem, that i guess, i'm the only who has that problem:
Yesterday I updated vom OOo 2.4.1 (german) -> 3.0 (german). Since that update I can open Documents on different Network-mappings (UNC or as drive letter) only in readonly mode. It's the same whether the share resides on a Linux-server (samba-versions 3.2.0-24.1.122-1830-SUSE-SL10.2 and 3.0.23d-19.14-1787-SUSE-SL10.2) or on a Windows-XP-Prof.-Desktop. Any hints? I now downgraded to 2.4.1 and everything is fine again ... But I will have to reupgare again, so every hint is welcome. TiA
greets

| I hoped to get just one little hint - I will give a parallel-installation of OOo 3 a try, but I will work on 2.4.2. Thanks for the fish. |

Hi,
1 - May be your server hides some characters like # in the names of the files. See this thread
http://user.services.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=11255
2 - You will have a read-only problem if in your identity (menu Tools > Options > OpenOffice.org > User data) you have non-alphabetic characters in First name or Last name field. Use only a-z without national characters or other characters.
This is Issue 94115 which will be corrected in 3.0.1.
If you share files on the network, there is a big problem with OOo 3.0, see Issue 95608. |

This was the problem - and the smbd-logfile did not see anything of that ... Thanks very very much - now I can work on. But here comes my next question: I don't want to see all the dot-files and dot-directories on Windows-network-Drives. How should I give them a veto again, without getting trouble with OOo? Thanks in Advance.

As a user, you can hide "hidden" files on your MS-Windows PC. |
