LibreOffice Portable

Today (5 Nov) I went to the PA LibreOffice page, to download the latest version. There are two download buttons "Download 3.6.3" and "3.6.3 (All Languages)".

However BOTH buttons have the following text on the second line: "for Windows, multilingual". Presumably, only the "All Languages" button is multilingual? The other one should be "English only"? Otherwise, both of the buttons should point to the same download files! In which case, the size of the downloads should be the same (and you wouldn't need 2 buttons)!

Confused...

I'd like to make use of the portable version of LO. Problem is, it's slow to the point of unusable on a standard USB stick. If I loaded it onto a high speed CF card (for example), would performance be greatly improved?

I just attempted an install of LibreOfficePortable_3.6.1.1_MultilingualNormal.paf.exe into an older installation of LibreOfficePortable.

Here's what happened:

1) All of my settings were ignored. Good thing I always backup the current setup before installing a new one so all I have to do is delete 3.6.1.1.

2) All "normal" languages were installed in addition to US English. No option to remove unwanted languages.

Anyone able to virtualize LibreOffice 3.6.1?

I have tried to following:
Sequence in XP -> creating package works and prelaunch launch works ok, but when I stream the package to client the launch fails.
I get the following error on launch:
"LibreOffice 3.6 Fatal Error
Application launch doesn't work. An error occurred during file opening"

Sequence in Win7 -> Install goes ok, but when trying to open software the launch hangs and I get the following error on launch:
"LibreOffice 3.6 has stopped working"

Message in event log:
Log Name Application

I am working with
Windows 7 Home Premium (Build 7601) Service Pack I, 64-bit edition
and
LibreOfficePortable 3.4.5
OOO340m1 (Build:502)
no JAVA installed.
LibreOfficePortable 3.5.x and 3.6.1 could not be installed, because MS VC runtime was missing. NOw, I have tried the new version:
LibreOfficePortable_3.6.1.1_MultilingualNormal.paf
MS VC runtime is not still missing, but i could not launch LibreOffice. The first time it aborts with the message:
"Die Anwendung kann nicht gestartet werden - an error occurred during file opening"

Today 22-09-2012 I updated my portable apps.
The update was stuck at the Libreoffice update.
a moment later my virusscanner (F-secure) reported a trojan in the file
LibreOfficePortable\App\libreoffice\program\icudt49.dll
It looked like it was received during the update.
Is it possible the files on the server are infected?

Hello all,

I had to install Libreoffice on an USB stick.

As I run Linux on my box this is a little adventure, cause the install package for libreoffice stickware is a windows executable.

My first approach was, to run an XP guest in Virtualbox (4.1.22), and to hand the USB stick over to the XP guest, so that XP could write directly onto the stick. As my Virtualbox is PUEL licensed from Oracle for personal use it was possible to also install the extension pack from Oracle, which provides USB 2.0 via an EHCI emulation. Okaaayy, sounds good.

A recent install of LibreOfficePortable 3.6.1 has 17,937 files despite specifying the delete of unused languages. Something seems very wrong. Nearly 18,000 files required (many of them apparently help and text files in unwanted languages)on devices with a limited number of i-o cycles seems absurd. Are there really no other directories that can be eliminated from the install? Has this application really been pared of unneeded language files as specified during the install options?

Just noticed this morning (though haven't fired it up in about a week) that LibreOffice isn't working,it crashes during the splash screen at startup. There is no error window that pops up other than it stopped working and Windows Error reporting says it'll notify me of a fix (yeah, right!). I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling twice to no avail, deleting the entire folder, the 'user' folder it created on my flash drive, etc. I downloaded and installed the full version on this PC and it works like a champ, so not sure what's going on here.

Hi,

Is there any way to start quick starter? Maybe a shorcut to start it... LibreOffice starts really slowly even second time :/
