OpenOffice and file locking on network file system (NFS)
When opening an OpenOffice document, that is stored on a network file system (NFS), OpenOffice is known to crash due to a problem in OpenOffice, that has to do with locking of files, which prevents users from working in the same document. Unfortunately, there is no solution yet because OpenOffice believes, that the problem is in the NFS.
This procedure will make it possible for OpenOffice to work on documents, that is stored on a NFS.
In our example, we want to fix OpenOffice on an Ubuntu operating system.
We open the OpenOffice configuration script for editing and deletes the section, that enables file locking.
sudo vi /usr/lib/openoffice/program/soffice
