Libreoffice Portable, dictionaries and paths

Submitted by besr73 on December 12, 2024 - 6:59pm

If i use the pa.com suite to install libreoffice portable, the dictionaries are not working(i dont remove the extra lang in the setup)

Im using a folder named portables, inside that another folder named portableapps in wich all portableapps arei installed(containing the start portableapps and document folders).

If download and install outside of pa.com suite in the root directory of any drive(ej. c:\libreofficeportable) all dictionaries installed work fine.

Why is there no current portable version of LibreOffice?

The current version of LibreOffice is 24.8.0.
https://portableapps.com/apps/office/libreoffice_portable is stuck at version 24.2.3.
And https://www.libreoffice.org/download/portable-versions/ tells:

No Portable Version (MultilingualStandard) is currently available

and

Libre Office shows an 'Update available' icon that instals the full version

When LibreOffice has an uninstalled update available it shows an icon of a globe at the top right of the screen to indicate the update is available. When you click on this you are taken to the LibreOffice web site where you will (if you are trusting and innocent) download and install the full version of LibreOffice on the PC you happen to be sitting at.

This icon is visible whether you are running the portable or the original version.

Hello John,

Regarding LibreOffice 24.2.5:

If you look at the LibreOffice download webpage you will notice that LibreOffice Still isn't there any more. I don't know if that situation is temporary or permanent. If I look at the LibreOffice Blog for 24.2.5 for some indication of what is going on then there is only this paragraph on the issue:

Hi,

I can't start LibreOffice from the PortableApps.com Plataform. It displays the splash screen, no error message, and doesn't open, this is for any of the apps of the suite.

The problem has been reported in previous topics:

LO 24: crash while edit options

Submitted by midiman08 on February 16, 2024 - 3:18am

Hi,
on LO 7.6 everythings working fine, but after updating to LO 24.2.0 I have trouble with edit the options. I try to edit the options under "extra" > "options". Then my system runs und runs and runs - nothing happens. Ok - I close the app manually. After restarting LO I got a message about the crashing. I choose "safe mode" and LO started. When running the "options" again, the app hangs again.
My first idea was a wrong java version, but I installed Java 1.8 in 32 bit from Oracle. (regular I use the java apps from zulu). It doesn't help...

Any idea's ???
