I'm not getting a consistent preview of doc/docx documents. Some docs do and some docs don't, but xls/xlsx always fails. Powerpoint and pdf previews work fine. Is there an approved version of openoffice for openkm?

Ubuntu 10.04
OO ver 3.3
The path is configured correctly or I wouldn't get any previews properly, correct?


Thank you.

Which OpenKM version are you using? Can you reproduce the issue in the online demo?
 #13481  by dandevnull
 
openkm 5.1.8

The xls/xlsx files that don't preview in mine preview correctly in the demo.

How can it be so inconsistent?

Issue was resolved by removing and installing openoffice.org again. Strange that it would break, possibly one of the Ubuntu system updates broke it. If I find the problematic update I'll post here for future users.

As always, thank you.

Another user wrote a similar problem due to an update in Debian. Anyway I use Debian Squeeze and Ubuntu Natty and had no issues with LibreOffice.
